The Product of the Year

great the life Our greatest glory
consists, not in never falling, but in
rising every time we fall" which is an
echo of the proverb of Scripture: "A
just man falleth seven times and
riseth up again" The best characters
are nodded out of faults, and those
who achieve come up out of the great
tribulation of many defeats.
The New Year is here. We are
standing on its threshold We look
down the long avenue of days and
weeks and months. How inviting the
view! How glad we should be that
God permits our eyes to look upon
it! How eager we should be to give
response to his call for service and
conquest! What shall we do with the
New Year-the best of all the years
of time? Shall we not, lifting up clean
hands and pure hearts. pledge our.
selves to make the most of the year
for God, for our fellow-men and for
ourselves? Such high dedication will
surely make for the greater glory OF
God and the larger good OF man.

MADRIz HAILED
AS PRESIDENT
JUDGE OF COURT OF JUSTICE Ac.
CLAIMED SUCCESSOR TO
ZElAYA.
ON REACHING MANAGUA
BUT NIcARAGUAN REVOLUTIONS
ISTS HAVE YET TO BE
REckoNEp WITH.

Managua.- Madriz. judge OF the
Central American Court OF Justice at
Carriage, who has been put forward
as candidate for the presidency to cuc-
coed Zelaya, received an enthusiastic
reception on his arrival here Sunday.
Long before he reached the capital
Madriz was the idol of cheering
crowds. He was met by delegations
from various departments and was ac-
claimed all along the way from Co.
rinto to Managua.
AT this place the crowds awaiting
the appearance of the candidate were
extraordinary. Troops and police
were out in force for the protection OF
Madriz, who proceeded on foot to a
hotel through an almost ineXtricable
mass of people, the soldiers and de-
tectives breaking way through the
solid ranks, pushing and throwing
aside the frantic people.
In front Of the park there were hos
tile cries against the attempt OF the
soldiers to clear the street. and i'm
mediately fifty civilians. all of them
residents of Leon, which is the home
of Madriz. and the stronghold of the
Liberals who favor his candidacy,
whipped out revolvers, brandishing
them in the air. They formed COM
pact mass around Madriz, acting as his
bodyguard and escorting him to his
quarters.
For moment the situation was
critical. There were shouts Of viva
Leon; to hell with Managua."
No shots were fired, however. and
the procession went on its way. The
face of the presidential candidate was
He was accompanied to the hotel by
the Mexican minister and from the
place the crowds were shut out.
DR.. Madriz arrived about 9 O'Clock
Sunday morning at Corinto aboard the
steamer Acapulco from Punta Arenas,
Costa Rica. He was received by COM
missions representing Congress. the
Supreme Court, and the municipalities
Of Leon, Managua, Chinandega and
Masaya.
A salute was fired in his honor. Sol
assn marked the greeting OF the
crowds. DIR. Madriz. though seemingly
well pleased at his welcome, made no
speech. Soon after he landed he said
in an interview:
II shall accept the honor that has
been offered me. am not the candi-
date of Leon, but, I am the candidate
OF the entire republic. Chief concern
will be to appease the ancient sec
uonalism that has divided certain To-
calities."
DR.. MadrIz said he was not certain
how the revolutionists would receive
him. He had sent delegate to Blue
fields to confer with the revolutionary
leaders there, but his representatives
had not been permitted to land. Cen
eral Estrada sent word that II he had
come to treat for peace it was useless.
Madriz was hopeful. however, that he
would succeed in making peace with
the revolutionists.

MILLIONS IN LIVE STOCK.
Great Show In Denver Will Be Object
Lesson for Stockmen and


Lesson for Stockmen and
Farmers.
1t Is estimated that the value of -he
live stock that will be on exhibition at
the National Stock Show at Denver
during the week of January s-15. will
be in excess of $2.O00,O0O. The show
will be the greatest exhibition of live
stock ever seen west of Chicago and
will be far ahead of any Of the previ-
GUS exhibitions given by the Western
Stock Show Association. The railroads
have made low rate of fare from all
points in the West and large attend
ance is expected. The horse show fea-
ture every evening will attract the
Denver people in large numbers and 1t
is expected that the attendance at the
show for the week will exceed 100000.
The association has determined to
make only nominal charge for admis-
sion, % cents general admission, with
an additional charge of 25 cents for
seats at night. This will not result in
enough money to pay the cost, but 1t
is the desire to popularize the show.
1.-THE show is not intended as
money making affair."" said General
Manager Skinner. I'VE expect our
profit in the increased knowledge con-
corning modern methods OF growing
and feeding live stock. Through this
show we can impress upon all the
people the Importance of the live
stock industry to the West and
through it we can also distribute
among the western breeders some OF
the choicest blood for breeding. This
is the fifth of these annual shows and
all eady we can see great improve
ment which has resulted from the
four shows that have preceded. We
want all the farmers and stockmen OF
the West to attend this show and we
feel certain each will secure some ex-
ceedingly valuable knowledge by at
tending"
One of the features of show week
will be the public sales of pure bred
cattle under the auspices OF the ma
ticnal breed associations. The Here
ford Association will sell on Tuesday,
January IL; on Wednesday the Short
horn Association will sell fifty head,
and on Thursday the Aberdeen-Angus
Association will sell fifty head. These
cattle are all selected by committees
from the best herds in the country
and each animal is guaranteed by the
association and is sold without reserve
at the highest bid. 1t is an opportu-
nifty for the breeders of the West to
secure the very choicest blood at rea-
sonable prices and 1t is hoped that
the offerings will be distributed widely
over the West where they will do
the most good.
