SMILE AND PUSH

"Smile and Push was the motto
given by Ex-Governor Buchtel &c
the Commercial club of Denver
some time ago. 1t is q good one.
Frowns freeze folks. Enthusiasm
comes from warm hearts. Grumpy
people climb little. Big folks are
not easily aRgrsvsted. A good
temper carries one through diff
>ultics. Sour seedlings stifIen the
mind. Cheeriness puts stars into
the night. Laughing aids diges-
tion. Happy-heartedness builds
courage. Moroseness puts the face
desparingly to the ground. Do MT
hang on, but push. Turn some-
thing, up do not wait. Grit. 60
and ginger win. No man need be
down and out. DO your best at
every job. Sinking shuts off
higher steps. Pull others. but
never look for pull. Push
through and there will be muscle to
hold your ground. Talk things
up. A tramp can knock, but only
mechanic can build. Better
things are higher up, Smile. and
push after them.

that good roads have a high money
value to the farmers of the nation.
and il may be said that this alone
is sufficient to justify the cost of
their construction as rapidly, as
practicable under an efficient.

points in FAVOR of this expenditure
is the economy of time and force in
transportation between farm and
market, enabling the growers to
lake advantage of fluctuations in

lancing the value of real estate.

Agriculturalists Near UniontOwn Are
 Satisfied.
 Uniontown, Aug. 25-( (Special.) This section abounds in corn and hay. It made good oat crop but that has been fed up to great extent.
 Little mule feed will be bought at this point another year ;and there will be more corn ground for meal than has been in twenty years. Already inquiries are made for corn mills. Every one has plenty of hay with much to spare. And the number of hogs and cattle, horses and colts, have largely increas- ed, There are many young mules.
 The cotton crop is generally late about three weeks and 1t so remains. At the end of the week before last August 15, it seemed likely to catch up; indeed it had probably caught up in the amount of fruit. Then came those four days of intense heat and took so much toll that the crop lost its advance and prob. ably more. Now the heat has disap, peared and the weather is cool and pleasant the boil worm Is at work and taking more than his just part; the weed needs rain: rust comes more anl more in evidence every day. The out look for a full crop is very poor indeed. In the immediate vicinity of this place the crop will probably equal that of last year; and there Is no telling what a late~ fall will do.
 The ginneries are ready to operate and expect to have some cotton Satur- day. The oil mills expect to com mence operations in two weeks. They have now no meal on hand: they have been cleaned out completely to the great dissatisfaction of the cow-own- CTS.
 The town Is building a large reser- voir at the water plant to satisfy the demand for water; and 1t will also erect A new Council chamber.

 Mir. Glavis has presented a report to the President in which he Is under stood to have attempted to show that high officials Of the Infenor Depart ment have oeen unnecessarily concern ed in the expedition of what are known as the Cunningham claims to valuable coal lands in Alabama and in so doing had acted entirely independ- ent of the general officers of the de- partment.
 The officials are much incensed over the report but they take the position that as they are preparing a report for the President their lips are nec- essarily sealed against any outside dis cnssion of the subject.
 Privately the officials express indig- nation regarding the report and say that at the proper time they will have no dimculty in convincing the public of the probity of their contract in the matter.

Tustice.s admonitiou 10 the people:

Justices admonitiou to the people:
 You had better burn every barn in the Commonwealth than with uplifted hand in the jury box profane your du- ties and render an unjust verdict in the name of the law" provoked much in- teresr among the lawyers he was ad- dressing.
 The Governor told how his Chief Jus tic at a conference which Mir. Willson buyers. had declared in deprecation of the use of soldiers in the night ridinr troubles that you cannot push an ides through an Anglo-Saxon's head with bavonet" and of the manner in which the Governor had met the declaration by asserting that the ''wielders of the bayonets were Anglo-Saxons. too"
 He told of the raids which followed this meeting. the barn burnings. the one Kentucky night riding murder. when Hiram Hedges, a farmer. was killed one night before his door in Nicholas County: he gave the wording of the blood-curdling night rider oath and read from some of the appeals which he said had come to him from frightened Kentuckians the State-over.
 Mir. Wilson declared that his power had been limited to punishing known offenders and said that in all the time of the tobacco war in but few coun- ties had juries been secured which would find indictments against their neigh bors who had done the night rid ing. He said that never more than 800 militiamen had held back over 10000 organized night riders during the en- tire trouble.
 Hopeful for Future.
 My promise to the people that they would need no lawyers if they hurt anyone in defense of their homes was kept" said the Governor, '"and there will be no pardons for the crimes of pillage, plant scraping, burning and pie are coming into their own and 1 look for trials and convictions. a rare thing up to this time. The faith have had in the plucky and impetuous stock from which I sprung Is being justified and I am glad that I was Governor in the troublous time.
 'sThe politician or time server who parleys with crime in a straight Amer ican State like Kentucky will be re- buked instantly and woe will come to him.
 T believe that there can be no re- newal of the trouble. The night riders are still unpanished but no statute of limitations protects them. The mur- derers of Hiram Hedges are still at large, but the peoples law will punish the criminals in time and come into its own"
