There is a movement on foot
to take out some of the street
lights and put on the country
roads 1t seems to us this
would be a very foolish move,
especially when our city is be-
coming known as the best light
ed town of its size in the west.
If more lights are needed let
the council order more lights
installed and let Main street
alone.

Next Sunday is Mothers

Time to Consider.

In all human probability q
new deal will occur i'm politics
within the next few years.
New men and new measures
seem to be coming to the front,
and the old political fossils are
retiring, either from choice or
necessity, and soon new faces
will be seen in the congress of
our nation. 1t is we'll. Such
men AS have proven themselves
the friends of the people will!
live in the hearts of the people.
and those who have labored for
the trusts and combinations of
wealth will sink into everlast
ing forgetfulness, or only be
remembered, on the page Of
history, as the tools of the rich
monopolists of the age. That
the work of congress, for a few
years, has only been the regis
tering station of the demands of
the few, is SO evident that it is
not necessary to make an argu-
ment to prove it, and that ac-
counts for the disperity of the
equality of men by favoritism,
have become immensely rich,
while the great majority have
become poor.
The idea "of all men being
equal before the law" has be.
come an ideal dream, and we
have become a divided nation
into, two classes-rich and poor
Why? Simply because the
few have been made the re-
cipients of the laws favors,
and have been able to grab, the
wealth of the nation.
Taxes have been levied, in
the name of tariff, upon every
thing, so the creators of wealth
are only the servants of the
manufactures, and the capital
lists of the country, so the one
class may become richer, and
the other class the poorer, and
thus our government has drift
ed from the original design Of
the fathers.
We talk of "the land of the
free and the home of the brave.
which only means: The land of
the rich and the home of the
slave.
1t is a healthy sign to see
these old representatives leav-
ing the halls of legislation to
give place to others, who may
be able to so legislate as to
bring about a more healthy
political condition in the coun-
try. Party is nothing. Noparty
VINO can only see one side of
q question is equal to so
q position as congress

the whole country. and honest

Fensler 8 Amen
Penny Street.
at w II. Fensler's old stand

VSIl VIC Wlli VI again W
dig up a few items for The
Times. We have often wond-
cred how newspaper managers
succeeded IN gathering news
for their papers without saying
the same old thing over and
over again.
1t is a difficult matter for
your scribe from this corner to
collect enough news to con-
struct a respectable paragraph
to say nothing of a half or a
quarter of 3 column.
We are under a verbal con-
tract to tell all we know about
the happenings on Penny street
Now we never knew just how
long and broad this street is
but we were informed by an
old settler here that it takes in
the southwest corner of Har-
rison Co., and a large portion of
Pottawattamie Co. If this is
the case we will look over the
territory and see if we can To-
cate anything to gossip about.
We understand that Hugh
Coulthard and w. A. Smith
have purchased a gasoline boat
which will run between Omaha
and Decatur, Nebr., the latter
place being the location of w.
AS ranch.
Hiram Sigler has the mater
ial on hand with which to con-
struct a cement cave. Hi says
he wants cool hiding resort
and will take no chances on
being scorched by Haley's com.
ct nor of being drowned by the
flood from the Missouri river.
We understand that Mobiles
lake will have a formal opening
about the 18th inst.
Frand Brothers has been
making a series of seed corn
tests for the farmers in this
vicinity. Frank says that if
he doesn't get a good crop of
corn this year he is going to
throw the blamed old tester into
the Mo. river.
About two weeks ago or be.
fore the freeze; D. McKinnon
took 3 kernels from each of GOO
ears of corn and planted them
in two rows across his field ex.
pecting to discard the bad ears
from the good when it came up
The other day on taking q
count of tbs sprouts, he found
that 63 hills were taken by the
moles, 81 hill, w,sr., t,Amped
out by the cattle and ), me ker.
nels were lying in dry soil
Now he is searching through
his old arithmetic to see if he
can find a rule by which re car
calculate the percen. pf strong
or weak corn.
Mrs. Samuel nray who has
been bedfast for over a month
is slowly recovering.
Incubators, seed corn testers
and Haley's comet are the CHIEF
objects of conversation on oul
telephones these days.
