The Ambitious YOnng Mans Glance

In an article entitled The PEN

current issue ~ Farm and Firesids,
appears the following
In spite Of the cry that the high

never was a time when anambitious
young country man had a better
chance than right now tits true
that fam lands, implements. the

rate, and farm labor is very scarce,
and farm opportunities IRE multi

with his bare hsnd any young
man can lay the foundation Of a
modest foundation Of a modest for
tune in a short time, and do it un-
der the most healthful and invigo-
ratir g conditions. In other words,
thele never was such q dei.and for

seek a place as i tenant insteae Of

are chances that the country is just
vakil 6 up to all over the land.
Hundreds Of middle-aged men
in every county in the older part d
the +, rming community are wants
ing to retire from active work either
by moving off the farm or taking d
young man into partnership with
them These men feel that they
have earned a rest, set there is no
one to whom they can safely entrust
their business.
Their own sons have gone TO the
cities OF are settled on farmsof their

able to get are a vexation to the
spirit in most instances. In despair
lie farmer sells out and invests the
money in bonds Or something else,

ssMURDER WILL OUT.

The approximations stories, deal
ing with charges against men high
in the nation, printed by Chicago
newspaper, from a newspaper stand
point, are perhaps the greatest stor-
les ever published. Just how much
truth is in them is of course known
only to the paper that printed them
Some people will, certainly, accept
them as gospel; others will have to
be shown.
That the stories should be sprung
at this time when talks of national

And never paused and came to you,
A dream of golden and purple feather
Let us follow it's flight together.
The fairest dream that ever spread
In the moonlight. shining wings.

or the apple tree where my soul sings
Sings TO you. 1t came. 1t came

But stretched my hand cut. and 1t per-

All love, all joy Is In their heat
And in its suitry pInions. Listen

Like sorrow turned to laughter,

Failing in desert places, or

Long waited for,
| Which still reneyvs itself, again.

SOMETHING ROTTEN IN
DENMARK.

When Wilson was elected presi-
dent. this newspaper, though Repub-
iican in national politics, expressed
its confidence in him and wished
the democratic administration well
Since that time it has commented
favorably upon many of his official
acts
Just now, however, the Wilson ad.
ministration is involved in a mast,
mess known as the McNab- Reynold:
scandal
As is pointed out in the For
Wayne News, the facts of the scan
| dal are these:
| Two wealthy married men of Cal
| ifornia betrayed and took out of
| the state two silly little high
/ school girls.
| The men were arrested under the
rfann white slave act.
One of them, however, was the
sen of A. caminetti, a powerful
politician of California, and the in
innate friend of William ]. Bryan.
The elder Caminetti, who was
Immigration by President Wilson as
as an acknowledgment of his poll
teal service. was greatly alarmed
by the activity of District Attor-
ney AcNab. who was intending tn
bring the white slave cases TO an
early trial.
| He appealed to Attorney General
McReynolds. who. falling in with
this suggestion that he prostitute
his office. ordered a postponement.
District Attorney McNab protest
ed that the delay was merely a
part of a scheme to railroad the
cases out of court.
MeReynolds in reply CURLY or
dered the postponement
McNab resigned in his famous
telegram to the president, where
{ upon McReynolds remarked with
!, grin that he was glad that a re-
publican had been gotten out of Of
fee so easily. Then came the storm
of public protest and the sudden
], reversal of the administration s
Il policy.
The facts are all there and they
speak for themselves far more elo-
auently than any denunciatory
e words could do. We have 1t ac-
81 knowledged that at least three
high officials of the federal gov
eminent. two of them cabinet Off
I GERS, employed their positions to
t protect criminals of the most Of
r fensive type. and no sensible man
doubts but that for Mr.. McNab's
bold stand, which cost him his Of
flee, those contributors to the de-
t linquincy of little girls eventually
h woull have gone free.
I 1t IS a nasty foul-smelling affa
z We are surprise to find that SO

AS TO THE OUTCOME.

Hammond democrats elect their
city chairman this evening. 1t will
be warm session, no doubt, and
that goes double.
We meant to abide by the hot
weather hints for comfort, and not
get excited, but when men who were
brethren once, though no kinship of
ours meet with malice aforethought
to commit fratricide we get all fused
up" because we don't know the ETH
quette for such an occasion. To cry
were to shed crocodile tears. and to
laugh were barbarism. But having to
do something we will withdraw from
the ghoulish looking throng and tenn
porarily retreat to the height of the
mountain to ponder the cause for the
impending bloodshed.
We shall next ask ourselves, what
are the spoils of this war and what
booteth it the common tax payer
whether that man win or the other
prevail; for it appears that there are
those in the democratic house that
want to keep what they acquired with
the right hand and with the left
hand, whilst their brethren being
empty handed are ready to use both
rights and lefts to take all that
others have.

bed is being mussed up by the broth
