Why Things Happen to Happen

There is such a thing as the seed
of events. In a liberal sense it is
true that whatsoever man soweth
that shall be also reap" And this
is just as true of Nations as ofin-
dividuals. Events do not take
form without mold, nor substance
without material. They do not
come from nowhere and out Of
nothing. The lecture title is put
that way to make you think.
Things don't just "happen to hap
pen"
In former days, what people
didn't comprehend they blamed to
fairies, and to chance. Now, we
understand that events are not
caused by fairies, but by natural
forces; that they do not occur by
chance, but in accordance with
laws as sure In their operation as
the law of gravity.
Some folks think the Socialists
are just lot of people who have
had beautiful dream and are try
ing to make it reality without
knowing how. That is the big
mistake. Socialists are the only
people who have made a science OF
human affairs, They know WY
things "happen to happen" Our
lecturer will tell you about it in an
entertaining way, using language
that you can understand without
the dictionary.

About the Roads

Any one who has driven over the
roads has easily noticed the difference
1H- ths tohditien Of the ssms There
aueht to be very little difference if
they all received the same amount of
care. The road leading into Julesburg
from the west is boulevard until you
reach the town limits and then it is like
driving over the Crock road to Dub
lin. Why? Because it has not been
dragged. A number of the streets in
town are in the same unfit condition.
The road leading into Ovid from the
north is nearly us smooth as pave
ment while the one across the river
south is something awful. The roads
from the north and west into Sedg-
wick are like wise very rough. There
is absolutely no reason for these roads
being in the condition they are except
that they have not been dragged after
our recent rains. A good deal of mon
ey has been spent in grading our roads
and streets and it is shame to leave
them in the present condition. Moth
ing advertises a county more than
the roads, nothing has advertised
Sedgwick County more than the bridges
we put in last year, Nothing induces a
farmer to come to to town more than
to have the roads leading into town
kept in good condition. This spring has
been ideal for keeping the roads in fine
shape had they only been attended to,
Now is the time to do the work not lat
er in the summer after the ruts have
become deep. DO 1T NOW.

Moving Picture Show to Open
next Monday Night

Messrs Stone and Harvey of Craw-
ford Nebraska have leased the building
where the moving Picture show is
located and will open the show under
the name of 1.-The Plezol' on next
Monday night. These gentlemen are
very pleasant to meet and tell US that
they are here to make the show snc-
cess and we believe they will do so.
Mr.. Harvey is married man and has
moved his family to Julesburg. The
boys have had thorough clean
ing house time and have ordered new
picture machine, one of the best made
and propose to give Julesburg first
class Moving Picture Show in every
respect. We wish them success.

Short Grass Club Coming

The Pathfinder for the Short Grass
Touring Club was in Julesburg on Sun
day and was taken out to the halfmile
track and decided that the Club could
put on their Motor Cycle Races on that
track but letter from the President
of the club says that they want the
track made for the automobile races if
possible and we believe that if this
can be arranged for that we can put
on the biggest meet at Julesburg on
August 18th that has ever been held
this side of Denver This will be better
than 4th. of July Celebration.
