In other ways it may be said that Sig.
Lehman is a right decent individual
He makes it a rule to vote with the
Majority, and as his name appears past
the middle of the roll call, he is reason
ably sure which way the performance
is headed when he is called upon. The
burden rests with the A. B. C.'s. That
is one alleged reason for the fact that
Young, of the senate, has been SO sue
cessful in staying on the winning side
of the fence. He Is last on the list. and
by counting noses on roll call blank,
has a sure thing before him.
Mr. Lehman wears close curls and
pleased expression, also spectacles with
ear-anchors. He also wears pen be-
hind his ear. Perhaps he acquired this
habit from long years in a garment store,
where it is frequently necessary to
change the cost marks.

Twenty-three for the lightning rod
shark Representative Foley, of Rice
county, has evidently been stang" by
the progressive larceny specialist
known as the lightning rod man, and
intends to put a bug in his coffee.
Should his bill pass, the lightning
shark will find it a hard matter to skin
the purchaser by selling his note at a
bank, for all bankers would look with
disfavor upon note bearing the
legend, "given to lightning rod
crook" or words to that effect.

Division Now Assured.

The people of Sharon Springs
have long cherished the hope
that hope that the day would
come when their town would
come when their town would be
made division terminal on the
Union Pacific Railroad That
hope is about to be realized after
many years of patient waiting.
John J. Ingalls, in his famous
poem Opportunity, said that
once in every mans life oppor
tunity'' came unbidden and
knocked at his door If he was
asleep it departed never to re-
turn again. We believe that to
be true. We believe it applies
with equal truth to towns and
cities. Opportunity" came to
Sharon Springs and the town
was awake. And now the orders
have gone forth to make haste
and build round house and di-
vision terminal, both passenger
and freight, at Sharon Springs.
Surveyors are here this week
stalking out the round house and
side tracks. Construction gangs
from Sterling, Colo, where a di-
vision terminal has just been
completed, are on their way to
Sharon Springs. That the work
will bepushed before cold weather
comes is now assured fact. The
new round house and terminal
will be located north of the main
line track and east of the depot.
The round house will be of brick
and of the very latest design.
Large yardage has been provid-
ed for, and the terminal at Shar-
on Springs will be one of the
best on the system. In addition
to the large cook house and bunk
house already built by Col. Par
ker, new office building is to
be built at once for the use of
the construction department..
Twenty carloads of material
have already been unloaded, in
Guiding the blocks for the floor
of the round house.
OF course Sharon Springs peo-
pie are naturally very much
pleased over the decision of the
Union Pacific officials to place
the division terminal here. A
county seat and division town
ought to grow, and we can't see
anything now to keep Sharon
Springs from growing. Not
only will the town be benefited
by the division being located
here but the SURROUNDING coun-
try will be benefited as well -

A man engages in the newspa-
per business to make a living,
just like anyone else in any other
business. 1t is not the duty of
a newspaper man to ferret out
any mean or contemplate act
any more than it is the duty of
citizens. The citizens of com
munity are responsible for the
immortality of town, for dis
ing of the law-not the newspa-
per. How many business men
are there in a town who viii con
denim a wrongdoer when they
know it will injure them? And
yet that's what some persons
expect papers to do. The trouble
is, the so-called honorable people
of a community haven't the NOR
al courage to stand up for the
right. A majority of them, if
they indorse an article condemn
ing the wickedness of some scion
will come around to the editor
and tell him he has done right,
vet when it comes to talking it
on the streets and elsewhere
their nerve fails them, and the
editor is left to fight the battle
alone. It is the individual and
not the newspaper that hasn't
moral courage. Newspapers re-
feet the wishes of the people and
are the result of existing condi-
tions, which must be changed, if
at all, by individual effort
