Others all busy men, took the necessary time to write
to the boy.
When then he faced his auditors he had some
thing besides advice and smooth talk to deliver; he
illustrated his points with practical information, gar
nered exclusively for his use, from the leading
men of the political and educational world He wise
ly calculated that they what the world calls

the successful of the day. by going to the root

Kansas PhiLNNthrODY.

Down in Kansas there is woeful shortage of
able-bodied laborng men. AS result the farmers
are paying harvest hands the magnificent Of
twenty five dollars week and board It is said that
Kansas has bumper crop this year, and that the
soil has sunk three inches Under the terrible strain
This is why Kansas has sent out appeal for help in
order to garner the fruits with which nature has
abundantly blessed that state Even students and COL
lege professors have listened favorably to her
beseeching cry and are fastening thither with all
speed.
It is likely that Kansas will be flooded with har-
vest hands. Such alluring salary will bring
thousands of to her rescue. It is safe to say
that the largeness of the wage scale is mere bluff,
but it will serve its purpose. For years this scheme
has been successfully worked in North and South
Dakota. After the market became gutted the willy
farmer hired his farm hands at regular rates. We
are willing to wager one-fourth interest in the
north pole that the policy will be followed ia
Kansas.
Those who give publicity to such methods are
doing the laboring classes great injustice. Thou
sands of men will give up good positions account
Of this twenty fvedollar advertisement and rush to
this so-called Eldorado. Those who have been form
erly deceived will stay where they are but there are
plenty of others who will learn by experience that
they have been "taken in.''

HeZDinS Prisoners.


DURING the past week we had the pleasure of
listening to two Of the prisoners tell how Mr.. F.
Emory Lyon assisted them in securing situa-
tons. We believe that prisoners too skepcal in
regard to accepting such help. To the who
means to do right position is Of prime Importance
Without such help he is sadly handicapped Those
who have heretofore attempted to be independent will
confess that the odds we're against them However,
the outlook assumes a brighter hue after position
has been obtained.
In refusing to take advantage Of these oppor-
tunities to regain their former standing prisoners
are doing themselves injustice. The man who
has friends is in position to help himself independ-
ent of the Prisoners Aid Society, or similar organ-
cations. But how long can buffet the current
with only twenty-five dollars and the clothes
his back? single indiscretion and his capital IS
gone. In week he will be as shabby as a tramp.
Then it is goodby to good Intentions Before fort
night has passed the probabilities are he will be
found in the workhouse.
The man who let's pride step in between him and
one of these positions is deserving of better fate.
He has the right kind of grit to succeed but when
he permits his pride to push him into the gutter, he
is not working along business methods. He
thus refuses to grasp the straw that may have safely
landed him the shore.

The greatest holiday which this country is called
upon to observe, is that of Independence Day-the
momentous day upon which our forbears signed the
Declaration of Independence. Notwithstanding the
fact that the actors in this epoch making drama have
long since passed away, and that the ink Ameri-
cas- great Magma Charta has almost become blur,
the enthusiasm Of the people today is great it
was during Washingtons time
The Fourth of July is written so indeiby in the
history of this country that will be remembered as
long as the nation survives the vicissitudes of time
By their valor and courage in defying foreign
tyrant the patriots of 1776 founded nation whose
achievements have surprised the world From an in
significant republic it has emerged into of the
most respected and tolerant nations on earth Today
it is the envy of the world, and the proudest of
European monarchs consider it honor to be on
friendly terms with the Athens of the Western Henri
sphere.
There are those who believe that our Fourth of
July celebration is an act of dscourtesy to van
pushed foe. That since the two countries are on
such friendly terms this time honored custom should
be eliminated in order not to wound their feelings
Those who advance such pernicious thoughts are
traitors to America They not patriots. They
do not value our liberty and institutions. Woe
to America when 1t ceases to perpetuate the day
which has become hallowed throughout the land
Instead OF letting enthusiasm we should in
efforts in order to make the day the most
glorious in the year. Instead of listening to the
voice OF foreign emissaries we should make the
Fourth of July the occasion of unwilling statues to
those ilustrious statesmen and battle.scarred
riors who risked all to realize their noble aspira-
tions-a free country, free people, and free
religion.
