ARE YOU AFRAID TO TAKE
CHANCES

Many man fails because he
does not dare to take risks, to take
the initiative.
When do you expect to do any
thing distinctive in lifea When
do you expect to get out of the
ranks of mediocrity9 Then, men
who do original things are fear
less. There is lot of dare in
their makeup, great deal Of
boldness. They are not afraid to
take chances, to shoulder respon-
sibility, to endure Inconvenience
and privation.
There never was a time when
the quality of courage was SO alb
solutely indispensable in the bust
ness world as it is today. 1t does
not matter how many success
qualities you possess, young man,
if you lack courage you will never
get anywhere. Not even honesty
or perseverance will take it's place.
| There is no substitute for courage.
1t does not matter how well
educated you may be, or how good
a training you have received, il
you lack that courage which dares
to risk all on your Judgment, you
will never get above mediocrity
The men who stand at the tor
of their line of endeavor stand
there because they have the cour.
age of their convictions. They
had the courage to climb, had the
nerve to undertake even against
the advice of others. - Success

FROM THE CENTER OF THINGS
Stanley's Representative Tells OF a Momentous
Week in the States Law Factory

heart I'm the attitude of the legislators
toward the railroad interests, several
railroad measures being killed In
the senate and one in the house. The
demurrage bill, the bill naming the
number of employees and hours OF
work of train crews, and the bill fore
ing railroads to build side tracks as
required by shippers, were killed In
the senate; the bill requiring railroads
to put in stock scales at all stations
was killed in the house. 1t looks as
if it was beginning to dawn on some
Of the members that some justice
was due the railroad corporations.
After long and continuous strug-
giles on the question Of herd law for
the free range counties west OF the
river, the livestock committee finally
agreed to bill to allow . Ave per
cent referendum at general election
or forty per cent for special election.
The committee claimed that the cali
ing of special election on less than
forty per cent would be entailing
large expense on the counties, and an
less there were forty per cent or more
that would sign such petition, there
would not be fifty per cent vote for
the law and needless expense incurred
and nothing accomplished. This was
considered as fair proposition as
could be expected, when every MEM
Der of the house from those counties
were for free range, and it was agreed
to support the measure on that basis,
1t came before the house today and
through the influence OF Hare, sena-
tor from Pennington, member NOV.
ed to amend by reducing the numbef
of signers on petition for special
election to twenty-five per cent; this
amendment carried, and as It was in
violation of the agreement that had
been reached, the bill was lost. That
likely ends the legislation on the mat
ter for this session, as similar bill
introduced in the senate by Hare was
! lost. So i'm the end friend Hare's agi-
tation has amounted to naught, and
by his own action he killed the most
feasible bill that could have been
passed through the legislature.
While many of AS favored PROPOSE
tion less than the forty per cent, still
We realize that with the entire dele
cation from those counties standing
for free range, the compromise bill
was all that we could expect and
with their agreement to support on
that basis we agreed to the bill.
Friend Hare by his action only injur-
present.

Gone to His Reward

At peace with God and with a will
ingness to depart and be at rest with
Him, Samuel Morrison passed from
this earth to eternity on Saturday
morning at 1850 o'clock. Death
came after brief illness of four days,
the result OF fatigue from q trip to
Fort Pierre, that he might visit with
his wife, who is there for medical
treatment.
The deceased was born In Beverly,
West Virginia, May Is, 1926, and
passed away at the age of 81 years, Q
months and II days. He settled with
his family near Huron twentysix
years ago, and came to Stanley coun.
ty six years ago, TO pass his last days
here with his son, Frank. He was
strong in his belief of the Christian
faith, and exemplified his faith
throughout his life In his dealings
with mankind. He was a member
OF the Baptist church from early
manhood.
The funeral rites were held yester-
day afternoon at two o'clock at the
Presbyterian church, Rev. P, l.
King officiating. A large concourse
followed the remains to the Wyckoff
cemetery, where interment was
made.
Besides the aged wife, there are left
to mourn his going, eight children,
seven sons and one daughter. They
are George N, of Cottonwood, Will

Review special:-The legislative
bee is buzzing to beat the buzzer in
these latter days. Sessions are being
held nights, rainy days and Sundays"
l was going to say, but SO far Sunday
has escaped us. Our calendar calls
from thirty TO fifty bills per day, and
we are striving hard to lift the load
and getting curvature of the spinal
column in the, effort. If we only
had few Of those idle, sunshiny days
Of the earlier part of the session, how
happy We would be, but as one can
not grind grist with the water that
has gone by, We are having to draw
heavily on the water supply we have
left, and hope to get sufficient grist
ground out to keep the people "chew-
ing the rag" for the next two years.
The anti-treat bill, after all kinds
of ups and downs, being hammered
out by both houses and two or three
committees has at last passed, and is
up to the where 1t Is sure
of kindly reception. AS passed it
makes it Unable offense to ''set 'em
up" but relieves the saloonkeeper
and bartender from liability, except
as o.keep up sign reading, Drink
Hearty; Your Welcome; But Don't
Let the Other Fellow Pay for It,"
or words to that effect. The princi-
pal contention on this bill was re-
garding the liability of the saloon
keeper or bartender. The house
wanted to make him jointly liable
with the treater, but the senate was
his friend. and said he was usually too
busy a man to watch whose pockets
the money came from; it was enough
for him to serve them and then see
that somebody paid for them. So
now, my good fellow" it's up TO
you; you cannot say, 81 did set
them up, but the bartender had no
legal right to make me pay for them"
If you must be good fellow keep an
eye on Whitney-that is, IL he should
ever happen to be around so you
could get your eye on him.

Gossip of Washington
What Is Going On at the /
National Capital. I
Clerk WEEDS Prince IN Travel Romance

Der bound for Manila, but stopped in
Denver tn visit friends before leaving
the country. While visiting in Denver
she became acquainted with friends OF
her hostess who were also bound for
the east and who had taken passage on
the steamer which was to carry her to
Manila. Miss Jeffrey learned that they
were to make several side trips and so
she obtained an extension of leave
from the Philippines and decided to
join the party of tourists.
Whether the prince was a member
of this party or whether Miss jeffrey
met him after the ship passed through
the Golden Gate has not been made
known. At any rate, he was a passen-
ger on the steamer, and the %acquaint-
ance which formed then resulted in a
pretty little love affair. The prince con-
tinued with the party through their
travels in China and japan and the
love story progressed in the most sat
is%factOry way.
While in Hong Chow the party went
for an outing. The funny little native
rig in which Miss Jeffrey was riding
collided with a carriage. Miss Jeffrey
was thrown to the ground and injured
painfully, but not seriously. 1t was
not long after this that the marriage
took place.

Capital Is Cordial to Little Countess

BernStorffs made her debut in society
at Cairo, Egypt, where her father was
his country's representative up to a
few months ago. She feels as if she
were making a second debut since COM
ing to Washington, for she has taken
part in all the affairs given for Miss
Ethel Roosevelt, as we'll as in many Of
the official functions.
Since the dismantling of the German
embassy by the Baroness Won Stern
burg, who recently sailed for Europe
with her mother to spend the rest Of
the winter on the Riviera, the house
has been placed in the hands of dec
orators and furnishers, and the ambas-
sador and his family have been obliged
to live at one of the hotels. The EN-.
bassy is expected to be ready for oc-
cupancy in April.
The Countess Won Bernstorff and her
daughter wish to know all about the
city in which they live, and they are
seen frequently on pleasant mornings,
in hand, learning about
historic houses and places. They have
already outside the foreign and
circles to meet people of inter-
est, and it is confidently expected that
The German embassy will be thorough
ly cosmopolitan and democratic during
present incumbent's regime.

THERE is no ADLER servant of the
/ United States in the capitol build
ing than James G. Courts, the diminu-
tive clerk of the house committee on
appropriations. Without him the great
committee would be often at sea.
1t would be almost an utter impos-
sibility for Chairman Tawney or any
other head of that great committee to
carry in his mind the vast details of
the appropriation bills which it brings
into the house, carrying amounts vary
ing from a few to more than 500, 000,-
600. Some member of the house wants
to know about some item in every
bill and frequently the whole house
wants to know about a good many of
them. Chairman Tawney can answer
Ofhand as many questions as any
other chairman who ever stood in his
shoes, but it is Courts who, when he
sits down, is almost hidden by the
desk in front of him, but is the ready
prOmpter when the chairman's mem
DRY fails. Between Tawney and Courts
practically no time of the house is
wasted in getting necessary informa-
ton for all Corners.

Secretary Satterlee's Test for Duty

for very early in the morning Of the
night that Mr.. Satterlee played at be-
ing a midshipman and slept in Ban
croft, or Bankrupt" hall as the mid
dies facetiously call it, apropos Of
crOnic penniless state. "All OUT
was called promptly and those who
did not turn out quickly enough to
suit the MILDLY officers were uncere-
moniously dumped out on the floor,
mattress and all. The officer of one Of
the decks rushing hurriedly around
at the last moment to see that all had
obeyed his summons came to a room
whose occupant had not stirred, but
with his head buried in the pillow was
soundly sleeping. Here, you, get up"
called out Mr. Midshipman, and meet
ing with no response, said, "Oh, you
wont, won't you?" With that he
rushed toward the bed and taking
hold of the mattress was about to
jerk it down on the floor, when a
voice said. Whats the mat

beard, emerged from the bed clothes.
It was Mr.. Satterlee of the honorable
board Of visitors who had been so un-
tremendously aroused, and when this
fact dawned upon the brain Of the en-
t~erprfsing midshipman he beat Z

confided to his wife that he suspected
the button thrower to be stingy old

posed his "call" to the pastorate, but
that he dare not accuse him of it for
lack OF evidence.
At a church "sociable" that week
some n suggested the playing Of

OF oyster soup at some one else's ex-
pense and felt warmed and expansive.
Why not play Button, button
who's got the button?' he inquired Of
waiting children.
"Oh, yes!" exclaimed his youngest
daughter with enthusiasm. "And you
lend us the button, papa!" Then she
drew back, timorously. Unless you

tribution," she added, considerably.

When congress recently voted $780,

quake victims, an unusual scene was

ference was held at the speakers ia
BILE lasting about two minutes, and
those two minutes brought $500, 900
more relief to the sufferers of Italy.
Courts and his pen fixed the bill and
Courts later rushed the bill to the en-
crossing committee and had it in the
senate in record time.
When congratulated by members
and civilians alike later, Courts mere
ly smiled. When, however, some n
ventured to suggest that it was an in
spring sight to see congress act so
generously and so quickly, Courts re-
piled: 81 once knew a congressman
who made a speech in Faneuil hall,
Boston, and Dragged about the passag,
of a pension bill carrying over $780,
600, 900 in forty minutes. Finally he
