LOTS Of men are suspicious of
Others because they know there
selves.
AFTER choosing his own boss
many a man is dissatisfied so
it's him for the divorce court.
AN upstart goes about with
his nose in the air until the I'M
dertaker finally pulls it down.
EX-SENATOR BURTON, who is
once more a free man, insists
that he didn't do anything that
other senator's did not do. That
excuse sounds familiar. That's
just what Senator Gamble said,
and the rest of the senators said
he was mother"
AFTER tWenty-four years as
president of the Great Northern
railway system, during which
time he has made it the greatest
system in the world and has be-
come the greatest 6nancier, j. j.
Hill on Tuesday resigned his po-
sition and has been succeeded by
his son, Louis w. Hill.
The election in Chicago Tues
day resulted in the election of
Fred A. Busse, the republican
candidate for mayor, with a ma
Jority of Ii, 121. The council are
with the new mayor. He will
appoint the entire new board of
education and have control of
the police and fire departments
for the next four years, as we'll
as every other office in the city
hall.
ONE might really think from
the eagerness with which the
railroads are waiting a White
House announcement on the s1lh-
ject- of pending legislation, that
the President of the United
States passed the laws and, Con-
gress merely signed them. Now
a reference to the Constitution
of the United States would prgve
the error of this, even to 9 rail
road president. But the attitude
OF the roads merely shows the
hold that the personality of the
President has on their imagine
tons and the effect that it has on
the practical workings of Con-
gress. So the White House an
nouncement of a 'let up" on
the roads is eagerly awaited.
And in the sense it is hoped for,
it probably will be awaited in
vain. When the President
chooses to talk for publication,
ne probably will only repeat the
advice he has given before, "Act
honestly and you will be treated
fairly: a square deal for everyone.
including the railroads."

The City Ticket.

The unanimitv with which
>. Little Ed" was nominated for
a third term for mayor of this
} thriving city is a fitting tribute to
his official acts as mayor. Either
of the candidates mentioned for
the nomination, which in each
case were coupled with the fact
that if E. W. would not stand,
would have served the city excel
lently. But as Mr.. Banta saiu,
the coming two years. with a
source of revenue cut off that has
always put the city on easy street,
and the expiration of the water
franchise. made it necessary that
we have a man who thoroughly
understands the situation. And
it is not disparaging to either of
the candidates mentioned before
70 say. that E. W. Moses comes
nearer understanding the real
situation than any man in the
city.
AS to third ticket or independ-
ent nominations, we do not believe
there vii be any. hence we have
the choice to make between Mr..
Moses on the republican ticket
and Mr.. McGill on the socialist
ticket.

GETS FORCED
Nominated By the Republican City
Convention Without Opposition
WAS A tame CONVENTION

The republican city convention
was held at the court house
Thursday evening ard was a
mighty short and tame affair." On
only one Office, that of city treas
ure. was there a contest, and that
was settled in one ballot. All
other nominations being made un-
der suspension of the rules, near
ly all the motions for such action
being made and seconed by Dan
Bantaaaand Vern Russell.
The convention was called to
order by W. L. Townsley, chair
man of the city committee, and
E. G. Cole was elected chairman,
with Mr.. Townsley for secretary.
The call for the convention was
read, the published list of dele
gates from the various wards was
accepted, and nominations for
mayor were called for. Mr..
Banta nominated E. W. Moses

For the South Side Road.

Mayor E. W. Moses has been
carving on some negotiations with
General Freight Agent of the
Santa Fe Railway Company with
the view of securing a special rate
. on crushed rock to be used on the
road south Of the river from the.
bridge to Hart S corner. and as a
result of these negotiations is to
day in receipt. of a letter indica.
'tiOn that rate Of Is cents per
hundred can be secured, and a
possibility that still better rate
NAV be had.
We understand this crushed
rock can be secured loaded on cans
for 70 Gets per ton. This would
make it cost SITS per ton de-
livered. 1t is believed at this
price this road could be built at a
total cost not to exceed $1,000. 90.
This is an important matter and
the farmers of South Bend and
the business men Of Great Bend
ought to get together st once and
agree on some plan of action.

the present prices. Mr.. Morgan
went out from the north. eastern
part OF that state 10 his present
location. He now owns 1000
acres Of land which he has added
to his first purchase a quarter
section at a time. "All of this
land has doubled in price during
the past three years." said Mr..
Morgan. Quarter sections out
there now are bringing $4,000 to
$1,000. In fact. but little of the
farm land III that part of Barton
county is for sale. If farmer
does lot want to sell his farm, he
had better not price it. When
the price is named a buyer is after
it. Bumper wheat crops have
had much to do with making that
country what 1t is. -Drovers
