a burning desire to stay in. They are afraid of any uncertainties about the matter. If the people do not want them, they want a way to force themselves upon the people whether they are wei come or not.
 The tendency of all this is to put corrupt men in authority. The man who can do the smooth est trick is most likely to succeed. When he has succeeded in the primary, then he works the same scheme to succeed in the general election. When he is in, at least, he is just the same common thief that he was when he was steal ing his way in the primary. and again when he was stealing his way through the gauntlet of the general election.
 Success in his wrong never did and never will reform him. Once he is in, he is as much a ruler as the king on his throne. His word goes. and from it tiere is no ap- peal.
 If the honest people of this great country of ours do not sometime rise up and shake off this infamous incubus of tyranny, and if they do not give the peo- pie a chance to be their own rul- CTS and take the reins of admin istration in their own hands the future is indeed dark.
 What is the spell? Where is the charm that binds the people the good, honest, law-abiding, liberty-loving people to such a system of dishonesty? The answer is not far to seek. It is in a party name and party fealty.
 The people are taught by these despoilers that the greatest known.s sin Is not to stand by or ganized party.
 We believe that a better day will sometime dawn. We believe

The Initiative and Referendum.

The lower house of the Penn sylvania legislature has unani- mously passed bill for the ini- tiative and referendum for cities and towns.
 Surely no man who pretends to be in favor of the rule of the people can be opposed to this measure. It is imminently a measure in the interest of the people. It is not, and cannot be otherwise.
 In all cities and incorporated towns as our system now stands, the people do not rule. They simply elect, or count in, rulers. They have no voice and absolute ly no authority after the election. If the city fathers see fit to dc the will of the people they have the power to do so, and if they see fit 10 entirely ignore the 1known will and wishes of every man, woman and child in the
The Nevada County picayune., 1907-04-26

city, there is absolutely nothing to prevent them from doing SO.
 Under our present system this talk of human liberty is all hol- low mockery and bosh. We have the liberty to vote as we please and let some fellow steal the bal lot and count it contrary to the way it is cast if he desires to do so, and no man can dispute this fact.
 After we have voted, our lib- erty is suspended again until the next election, when we can walk up and cast another ballot, to be exploited again, and counted against the way it was cast, if the counter" so desires.
 And the powers that be call that human liberty.
 Our own Arkansas state senate refused to pass a bill to submit to the people the initiative and referendum, in order that they might, themselves, vote for their own emancipation, if they de- sire to do so.
 They have also refused to pass a bill, so we are informed, to pre- vent fraud in their own primary elections.
 If we could have fair and hon. est elections it would not be quite so bad. The next best thing would be to have at least fair primary elections, so that the people, somewhere in this glor- ious free country of ours, could be heard.

Prof. w. P.

 This step has become necessary on account of the fact that other business matters call for so much of my time that 1t is impossible for me to do justice to the paper and it's readers, and at the same time attend to my other business.

Kindness is indeed an excel lent thing It is a good invest ment. Every good man not only should, but he does feel kindly toward all men. The trouble with most of us is that we want the other fellow to show all lEof the kindness. We all believe in kindness, but we are prone to want it all coming toward us. Another trouble with many peo- pie is that they mistake the endorsement of a wrong for kind ness to the Wrong-doer. This is not kindness. We should feel kindly to all men, but we should not make the mistake of feeling kindly to the wrong that any man may commit. The correct admonition is to love the sinner, but to hate his sins.

that light is breaking near the line of the horizon and that par ties ties that bound and robbed and pilfered the public, while a set of free booters went through them as fast as giving away.
 The time, we believe will come, and that before very long, when the great body of American peo- pie will adhere to honesty before party. When civic righteous ness will hold a more exalted seat in their breast than party fealty.

MURDERED AT HAzLETON.

Addison B. Remaley, formerly of
Benton township, was murdered at
Hazleton last Friday morning, by
unknown assailants.
The story as told by the victim
before he died, was that he was re-
turning from the country and when
near the city line was commanded
by two lIen to halt. He did not
comply and second later a shot
was fired and he fell to the ground,
he saw the two men running away
but did not know them. lie re-
gained his feet and staggered to
the Office of DR.. Owen with blood
streaming from his side He call
ed for help and several people came
to windows of nearby houses but
evidently thought it was some bois,-
erous person aud paid no further
attention. Or. Owen found him
too weak to probe for the bullet
and had him taken to the hospital
where he died.
1t is believed that he was killed
by two men who were lying in wait
for another man, and shot him by
mistake. The body was taken,to
Benton on Saturday, to the home
CT his sister, and the funeral was
held on Monday.

THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

The following article appeared in
today's M0rniRg Press, and as it is
on a subject of general interest we
reprint it:
What shall be done with our Pub
lie Library is a question that con-
fronts the Directors of our Public
Library of Bloomsbury. For near
ly four years it has been kept alive
by the strenuous and untiring efforts
of few ladies whose sole aim is to
build up Public Library for
Bloomsbury and today they can
point with pride to the results of
their labors. Our Library now con-
tains nearly 5000 volumes Of our
Standard authors comprising a large
number of valuable wo:ks of refer
ence magazines, etc. Of this num-
ber of books there was circulated
during the month of Feb'y. ?, I72
volumes which went into the homes
of our citizens i'll Bloomsbury. This
one statement clearly shows that it
has past the experimental stage,
and is become an institution of use
fulness in our community. A visi
tor need only go and see the num-
Der of our public school scholars,
who use the works of reference con.
stantly and be convinced that
large amount of good is being done
by our Public Library for the young
people of our Schools and mills of
our town. Had we building that
would give the required accomoda-
tion its usefulness might be ex-
tended by free evening classes, as
we'll as lectures, but now while we
can point with pride to the perma-
nent success of our Library, we are
confronted with the fact that all
this has been accomplished by the
untiring zeal of a few ladies, who
in order to keep its doors open are
compelled to 60 from door to door
soliciting contributions to meet the
expenses. Appeals have been
made to our good citizeds but few
have responded. Is it not a reflec-
tion on our Town when we see our
neighboring town of Berwick raise
the sum of $35,oco dollars to i'm
prove the Y. M. c. A. while we
cannot raise 81 900 per year to sup
port our Public Library and in
spite of the most economical man
agement today have not sufficient
money to pay the current bills for
the last month? Let me appeal to
the many of our good citizens,
heads of families, whose boys and
girls use the Library regularly, but
do not contribute one cent towards
its support. Do not let SO useful
an institution be closed, as it must
just as soon as Our few ladies cease
gong from door to door begging
for our Library. When we show
such results our citizens should re.
spond to the appeals made to them
that we may be able to continue
the good work now being done by
our Public Library.
