AMPLE REASON.

AS perhaps every newspaper
reader knows, the capital city Of
Nebraska is dry" And it
claims to be the largest city in
America that has abolished the
open saloon by it's own local op-
tion vote. While the campaign
was at it's height a couple of
union men were talking about it
in front of the Labor Temple.
One of them, a printer, remark
ed:
81 am going to vote'er dry,
this time, and work my head off
trying to get other fellows to do
the same"
This was a surprise, for the
printerman was opposed to the
dry policy the year before, al
though the "drys" won then by
big majority.
whats your reason for vot-
ing dry this time?" queried
the other union man.
Three new suits of clothes
and an overcoat in eleven
months" was the terse reply

Cars and carts and wagons rumblin'
Down the street with deafnin' roar
Drivers swearin', yellin, grumblin'
Just like imps from sheol's shore,
Factories joining in the chorus
Helpin of the din to swell,
Auctioneers in tones sonorous,
Lynn bout the goods they sell.
Like it? No! love to wander
Mid the wales and mountains greer.
Mong the rural districts yonder
Where the hand of God is sean
Even the birds are all imported
From away across the sea;
Faces meet you all distorted
By the hand of misery.
Like it? No! 1 love to wander
Mid the wales and mountains green.
In the border land out yonder
Where the hand of God is seen.
Rumblin' railroad trains above you
Streets by worlSmen all defaced,
Everybody tryh' to shove you
In the gutter in their haste
Yes love the western border;
Pine trees wavin' in the air;
Rocks piled up in rough disorder:
Birds singin everywhere.
Deer a playin' in their gladness;
Elks a feedin' in the glen;
Not trace o. care nor sadness.
Campin' on the trail O. man.
Brooks O. crystal clearness flown
Ger the rocks an lovely flowers
In their tinted beauty CROWN,
Mid the mountains dell and bowers.
Fairer picture the Creator
Never threw on earthly screen
Than that lovely home of Nature
Where the hand of God is seen.

An exchange says: Here is
a minister who appreciates the
editor. AT a recent editorial
convention he offered the fol-
lowing toast: ITO save an edi-
tor from starvation, take his
paper and pay for it promptly.
To save him from despair, send
him every item Of news of
which you can get hold. To
save him from profanity write
your correspondence on one side
of the sheet and send it in as
early as possible. To save him
from mistakes, bury him. Dead
people are the only ones who
never make mistakes"

His mothers visitor was visi-

Nobody knows human nature
better than the editor. He takes
more kicks and cuffs than any
other business man in the COM
munity and says the least about
it. But he learns as the years
go by to take people for what
they are worth. He measures
them up. He places everyone
on his roll where they belong.
God and the editor knows pretty
much about them and gives them
their proper rating, be they
among the saints or sinners. So
when you get puffed up and
put on airs remember that all
things that are right and Just
will be measured up to you and
those things which are full of
folly and selfish pretense are
also recorded-though they may
not appear in print.-Higgins,

Get acquainted with the fury

Hung upon their gettin' thar.

BATES AND COLBY
Hope to Arrange a Football Game
Sometime This Season.

Lewiston. NE. Oct. 10-(Special--A
telegram received last night by man
ager Mathews of Bates team from
Manager Cole Of the Colby team say
ing that it was too late to arrange
any game for Wednesday Oct 10.
Mgr Mathews has not yet learned
the reason why the game was called
off. Some time ago he received q COM
munication from Manager Cole to the
effect that if he wished to do anything
concerning a football game for Oct.
19. he now had the opportunity.
Mathews replied that he would be very
glad to clinch the arrangements for
a game on that date. From that he
supposed that the game was all settled.
Both arrangements have had consider
able trouble in trying to arrange O
game and it cannot he said whose fault
it is that date has not been selected.
One thing is evident that the Bates
team is eager to meet the Colby team,
while from the attitude shown by the
Colby team it should be judged that
that she was not of the same senti-
ment. Colby has refused the dates Of
Oct. 10. also Oct TO- She now offers
Nov. S, which she knows is impossible,
because that is the date on which
Bates plays Bowdoin. r
