AS summed upin another editorial,
its going depend upon what policy
Governor Brewer will adopt towards
Noel's appointees, as to whether
Judge Buckley and others will stand
any chance of DOMINIC anew the judi
cal robe. This paper believes our
new governor comes to the Office so
untrammelled by political entangle-
ments MS to be able to be fairer ana
more impartial than any we have
had in decades, but still We remem-
Der that the runoff twixt him and
Noel eight years ago was exceeding
ly bitter and the activities of some of
the latters lieutenants may yet
rankle in the remembrance of Brewer.
We trust that he will Disregard
such matters, however, and choose
only the best available material re-
gardless OF rast service and poiliti-
cal alignment. In Judge Buckley its
our personal opinion, that as fine
timber is offered for the iudgship as
will likely seek the place. If no ia
vorite sons appear on the scene from
Greene we may be understood nor
as putting this forth as our end rise.

hands.

Before dismissing the subject let
US say while considering the applica-
ton of Judge Buckley for reaopolnt-
ment that we have watched the ad
mlnistration of this man closely, and
while belonging to a different polt-
ical faction, are frank to say that he
has made a fearless and efficient pre-
slider over our courts, and that he
has gone farther towards recogniz
ing the humblest citizen before the
bar as much as the most laurel
crowned LAWYER, than any Judge we
have seen. Should he fail in being
reappointed we shall remem Der that
he is good timber when the time for
electing judges rolls round. His adj
mlnistration has certainly cOwed the
criminal class in Greene County, and
that is as far as we should attempt
to speak informingly. IT'S rumored.
however, that strong supporter Of
Brewer at Meridian is slated for the
place. Whosoever secures it will

force the laws and uphold the courts

His Brother and Sister

I course. But the teacher may hold
him at the breaking up time; and. II

all she could for him.
The best thing she ever does for
him is what she does with him and
through him. And when she enters
into the work she assigns or guides
him in choosing for himself, and be-
comes his coworker, she reigns as
queen in that school. When he
knows her mind is travelling with his
mind, in its toilsome journey through
the fields of knowledge, he learns to
put her valuation on the work, be-
cause he puts high valuation on her.

entire appreciation. he Is sure to think
she is competent to guide his dreams
into their embodiment IN deeds. II

and she will encourage him to tell
about them, she has him on her side.
Where vocational training is given,
as is now being done In some places,
and will be done a great deal more in

have much more in common. The

MORE EXCELLENT
REPORTS FROM
WESTERN CANADA
Grains Are Heading Out
Rapidly and Harvest Is
Now Approaching With
a Great Demand for
Harvest Help.

Last week It was pointed out In
these columns that there would be
yield Of about 200,000,000 bushels Of
wheat throughout Western Canada, an
Increase Of about 100,000,000 over the
previous year, and that the demand
for farm help was very great. Con-
firmation of this news Is to hand and
the cry still is for more help. The
Canadian authorities are hopeful that
the friends of the 100000 or 100000
Americans who have gone to Canada
during the last few years will come to
the help Of these people and induce
as many able-bodied men as they pos
sibly can to take advantage Of the
low rate which Is being offered from
all points on the Canadian Boundary,
and particulars Of which can be had

Every facility will be afforded men
Of the right stamp to secure advantage
Of these low rates. To those who pro-
pose to go, 1t may be said that they
will have this splendid opportunity Of
securing first hand information as to
the excellent producing character OF
the lands in Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta. They will have the OPP
portunity of seeing some of the great
est wheat fields in the world and prob
ably the largest yield of wheat, oats
and barley that has ever been grown
on the Continent. And all this on
land some of which cost the settler
only the $1,000 necessary to enter for
his homestead, or, if he purchased,
in some cases, costing him from $500
to $1,000 per acre, but which is now
worth from $500 to $4,000 per acre.
Even at these prices the land is re-
markedly cheap as will be realized
when the statement is made that from
20 to 25 bushels per acre and over
of wheat are grown, netting the farm
er from $500 TO $1,000 per acre; and
this on land that he got for nothing
or paid merely a nominal price. In
fact the production shows that $500
to $4,000 per acre would be a nominal
price for land that would produce as
these lands produce.

oLD-FASHIoNED BOY PASSED
Youngster Of olden Days Has Perlshed
In Track Of Modern Llving-SmaII
Flats Driven Him Away.

What has become Of the old-fash-
Toned boy who always had his pockets
full OF the treasured loot Of youth
What has become Of the lad who car
ried barlow knife, couple of hun
dred feet Of kite string and fish line, a
dozen marbles. a piece Of chalk and a
few washers and spike nails around
secreted In his voluminous pockets?
No one ever sees him any more. He
ices not inhabit the streets or the va
cant lots. He doesn't go to school, and
II he did the modern wiseacres would
hold him up at the entrance and re-
ieve him of his treasures. What then
has become OF him? Where has he
gone?
Boy lovers say that the small nat
has driven him out and he has evolved
into something not nearly so whole
some or else he has become extinct.
They claim that the passing Of the real
homes has caused the normal boy to
become a tough little reprobate, who
oftentimes finds his way into the re-
form school or the home for juvenile
delinquents. all because he has no
chance any more to do the things that
the young male human wants to do.
The cramped-up fats have no room IN
them for the modern boy. There is
hardly enough room for sleeping and
eating and other absolutely necessary
things. Even the woodshed, the par
tIcular province Of the small boy, has
vanished now that steam heat has be-
come the recognized method for keep
ing warm.
