Much maudlin sympathy is
wasted on men who go wrong in
business and commercial life.
The bank cashier who is short
thousands of dollars and causes
the wreck of the institution with
the attendant loss to many
widowed and orphaned depositors
always has an abundance Of
sympathy. He is longlon excuses
and usually blames a womer Tor
his misfortune. It's the same
old story since Adam did the
shameless act in his effort to
hang on to the good things IN
the Garden of Eden-instead OF
getting out and hustling for a
living. He lost out-and all his
imitators deserve the same fate

The Primary Elections.

Interest in the nomination of
candidates to be voted for in
November by the new method
the primary ba]lot-did not en-
thuse either the candidates or
the politicians as did the old time
caucus and county convention,
and the vote at each of the sew
eral polling places in the county
was, as near as can be judged
from returns received up to this
time, Thursday morning., not
nearly half the votes at general
election.
The primary does not find favor
with the fellows who have been
in the habit of mixing" and
putting up a ticket to suit them
selves, yet they admit that it is a
square deal' and with some
brushing up or remodeling, is a
pretty good method in making
nominations.
At this writing it is impossible
to give anywhere near the cor
rect vote, nor will it be possible
until after theSIcanvasing board
has completed its work tomorrow.
However, from the statements of
those who have brought in re-
turns it is known that Horace
Kennedy has received the repub-
lican nomination for sheriff and
c. U. Richardson the populist
nomination. 1t is stated that
Kennedy had a majority in all
the precincts except Loup, Wood
River and Westerville.
Fer supervisor in district No.
2, r. h. WEIGH, the present in
cumbent, received the republican
nomination and James Lee the
democratic nomination.
For supervisor in district No.
3, Herbert Meyer won out over
his adversary Oh the republican
side and G. w. Headley was nom
mated by the democrats.
Indications are that DR.. Nor
row, republican, has received the
nomination for coroner with nc
democrat or populist opponent
for election in November.

1t is human nature to slop over,
but rarely has there been a more
notable case than the pamphlet
issued by the Standard Oil COM
pany. 1t would be natural to be-
iieve that with the high-priced
legal advisers of that institution
the organization would be better
protected against its own weak
nesses. The men in power APP
pear to have lost their heads and
have done a hysterical stunt that
will act like the boomerang.
Their sale object to discredit
the national Observation-Disclosures
failed. 1t does not occur to the
managers that the very fact that
the administration has made the
Standard come to time is what
strengthens the federal officials
with the public. For so many
years this great monopoly has so
entirely overridden the law, pub
lie opinion and common decency
that the long suffering public is
rejoicing because the oily combi-
nation has. at least found a
master.

Teachers Wanted.

There is shortage of teachers
in almost every part of Nebraska.
Custer County will be in need of
fifty more teachers than it now
has. This condition is largely
the result of the new law which
requires everyone who has not
taught to receive Normal train
ing.
After September 1, 1907, no
teachers certificate will be issued
to beginning teachers who have
not had normal training. This
means better schools and larger
salaries. Custer College makes
speciality of fitting teachers for
first, second and third grade
certificates. There has, also,
been law passed prohibiting all
who have not 10th grade
education, or, its equivalent,
from entering the State Normal
Schools of Nebraska.
Custer College can equip you
for the active duties of the
school room in less time than i:
possible in other schools. Fal,
term begins September 10.

Thursday, Sept, 5, 1907.

The Nebraska farmer is gam
bier. He has to be for he is up
against a difficult propositions
He stakes his time, his property,
his future prosperity and his wife
and children against all the
chances of nature, In the spring
of the year he prepares for the
great game of chance. Some
years rains and floods prevent
him from getting onto the fields
as early as he should. This year
it was the unusual cold weather
that delayed planting and pre-
vented termination for long
time after the seed was in the
ground. After the planting IS
done the farmer has to take a
chance against the weeds beating
his crop. When the grain gets
ahead of the weeds he is on the
hooks for time as to whether
the rust, the green bugs, the
cinch bugs, the weevil, the grass
hoppers or sundry other enemies
to the crops will not destroy his
prospects. With these dangers
safely over the farmer then has
to fear the storm elements, the
most dreaded being hail, which
will, in a few minutes, destroy
the work of months and the very
grandest of prospects for years.
The danger of hail, heavy rain
falls and terrible winds that will
lodge the grain and make profit
able harvest impossible, is ever
present. But, after all, the Ne
braska farmer is a brave man.
Disasters affect him lightly. If
he falls down this year he starts
in next season with hopes higher
than ever, feeling certain of sue
cess and knowing that the
element of luck is not always
against him. He feels certain Of
an even break-aud that's about
all he asks. The average Ne
braskan wants no odds in hi:
favor. He is willing to take his
chances against nature and the
elements, for he knows if the lucl
r of the game turns in his favor he
has the possibility of cleaning
up snug sum in one good year
