There are indeed but few men

He will not only become a strong

Shat they will not make a mistake

Points and Hubbard


The populists OF Douglas county.
haze almost atoned for their nearly
complete capitulation to rotten dem
ocratic ring by the nomination OF j.
j. Points and Frank B. Hibbard on
the legislative ticket. Mr.. Points is
man of intelligence, honor and hon.
esty He is man who can be trusted
in any and every relation of life. He
is a credit to the ticket. Mr.. Hubbard
is a well-to-do farmer, who commands
the esteem Of all who know him. There
are more such populists in Douglas
county, and without any difficulty a
full ticket. of such men could have Sc
cured.
1t is not alone necessary to elect men
to the legislature from Douglas coun-
ty, as we'll as elsewhere, who will truly
represent their constituents. 1t is
equally necessary that corrupt rings be
broken UP everywhere. A man can
not be excused for preaching the year
round that political rings ought to be
demolished, and then on election day
voting to perpetuate Them. Everybody
familiar with affairs there, knows that
political chicanery rules in the county
government The populists of that
county two years ago, tried to elect
Mr.. Hibbard to the board of county
commissioners in the hope of breaking
the democratic ring, and preventing
the letting of questionable contracts
ar i like conduct. This year the excuse
is made that the republican nominees
are no better. Such is no excuse at
all Populists are not responsible for
democratic and republican nominees.
.ney are responsible for their own. 1t
was their duty, however they may
have felt regard ig the legislature, to
afford the people chance to eleetsome-
body on the board of county commits
sioners who could command respect.
If may be contended that the people
would not throw their votes away.
That vote alone is thrown away that
does not represent the honest consci-
ence. The action of the convention in
endorsing the democratic candidates

a working organization in more states
than the republican party has. In all
the southern states the republicans
have no party at all. The editor Of
the Enterprise says the article in the
Signal means: For Gods sake vote
for Roosevelt If you can, but if Won
can't don't jeopardize your political
soul by voting, for Watson-vote for
Parker" That is the truth about the
matter, too.

ton is but one of discord? Can such
q union be conducive to the best de-
yelopment of society? Can children,
brought into the world under such
conditions be possessed OF either
health or moral strength? Will emil
aren under such conditions remain at
home?
Just SO long as there are unfortunate
marriages, just SO long will there be
a breaking of the bond. Any laws to
the contrary will not avert it. What
ever the restriction against divorce
may be, way will be found to over
leap it. We can not open the food
gates and then bail out the tide. The
divorce problem is one that involves
questions that reach to the foundation
of human society. The remedy does
not lie in preventing divorces, but it
lies more in preventing unfortunate
marriages.
At bottom, this question resolves it
self lageiy into the economic proclaim

III may be said that there Is beggafy
m the love of woman for husband
l6f Of the husband for his wife. II that
lxpve can be affected by economic con-
<tde tions. That Is true, and there
Xs no sweeter sight to be seen than
that of wife who. when reyerses
come, instead of nagging at her hus-
band about his lack Of income, will
turn In to cheer him in his misfortune
and let him know that it Is not the
income that she most desires, but
rather his own best peace and happi-
ness and that of the little ones at
nome. A man possessed OF such a
wife may feel that he is possessed OF
the highest premium this life affords.
But back and beyond all this want
or the fear of wants jeOpardizes the
peace OF every home. Those who re-
sist the strain are to be congratulated.
Any sociological observer will find
that divorces decrease as prosperity in
creases and the reverse. This fact
ought to be an index at least of the
tendency. Men and women OF careful
dispositions hesitate to assume q re-
sponsibility when economic conditions
are against them. 1t does not follow
by these statements that marriages are
only unfortunate among the poor and
middle classes They are even more
unfortunate among the so-called upper
clgsses,. but they are SO for the same

lives except through the perfUIr
