George D. Perkins in Sioux City Jour-

The night is a good time to think.
1t is a good time to reach out the
hand in search for the hand Of God.
Thus in troubled sleep the Lords voice
IS heard, and to raise upon an elbow
and answer. Here am l." is splendid.
Dreams are not what they We're, for
science has muddled faith, and money
is made in inventing cures for indi-
gestion; bu: out of the calm Of the
night voices are heard out Of the sky,
and there are messages of cheer and
gentle assurances that the Lord will
be a fellow traveller into Egypt, sure
deliverer, and that he will give the
heart nourishment. There are some
things that belong to dreams. for they
are beyond the reach of physical dem
onstration: and with them is COM
munion Of soul. some undefina BILE pow
er that lifts the life free of the weights
OF the body and gives it vision. Here

1t is the voice Of God.
Men are disposed to say they must
settle their problems for themselves;
and they must, but they are unwiss IL
they seek no counsel. If men do not
act in association they act narrowly
and selfishly. BY themselves they are
weak: when self centered neither their
eyes nor their ears serve them to best
advantage They huddle themselves
in dark alleys; they must feel their
way, for they have no vision. 1t IS
great to live in the open: it is great
to rise to some height and behold the
glory of the rising and the setting sun.
It is splendid to be in touch with the
world and feel the breath OF heaven.
There is the opportunity. surely. rms

ecstasy in It: the soul expands. ana
the light of it goes far. At such
time the life has marvellous reach; IL
has ears that catch the music OF count
less worlds, and it has eyes that re-
feet the unwritten and unspeakable
glories of life everlasting. Men inspire
their physical life out of the atmos-
phere which enwraps the earth; and
they inspire their spiritual life out OF
the atmosphere breathed upon the uni
verse by the great Jehovah. lnsplra-
ton Is the vital force Of life.
Jacob wrestled with the Lord, or
with some angel of the Lord, more
than once. It was a hard time he
had with an angel at Pencil. There
were champions in those days. 1t
was then that Jacob won the more dis
tinguished name of Israel. Many peo-
pie, some weak and some strong, have
wrestied in imitation OF Jacobs great
contest; and many have said with him,
Il will not let thee go. except thou

price" II visitors do not want to pay
the price, as in the case OF high-class
hotels. they can walk, drive, or go to
the fair In a flying machine. OF course
1t never occurred to the Tribune that
the hotels ought TO be compelled to re-

occasions. and AZ there are those who
demand that the railroads be required
to reduce rates to the fair because they
give excursion rates outside the state.

1t is not necessary to go to war
to enforce the lesson Of civilization
on Mexico. But it is necessary for the
United States to recognize its leader
ship and realize its responsibility. To
say that 1t is none Of our affair is
merely to skulk.
The bandits of Mexico are no farther
from the seat of American influence
than were the Modoc Indians. To say
that it makes difference that the
Rio Grande separates us'from the one,
while it was the Columbia that sep
arated us from the other, is merely

Brick paVements are inveterate dirt
collectors. They are exposed to no end
OF germ laden deposits through the ex-

sterilized, but there Is quantity which
the sun does not get at. Flushing the
streets every SO often is an excellent
practice both for the health and the
appearance Of the city. 1t is a device
now used by many cities for a thor

BIG JOB EVEN FOR WOODS.

There is no denying that the Tenth
district congressman has been a most
successful organizer for himself and
has demonstrated q thorough knowI-
edge OF how to play the political game
to win, both as state chairman and in
this district. But it will be a big job
to patch up the scattered pieces of the
republican party and make them stick
together in time to get results in the
1914 congressional election, especially
with the democrats pulling so we'll to-
gether and doing such good work that
Congressman Woods has felt called up

InoEs RICH MusQUAKlEs.

Over in Tarna county there is an
Indian reservation, as a majority OF
Iowa residents know. What many Of
the white neighbors DO not know is that
this reservation Is a business establish
ment Of considerable Magnitude, when
the incomes and revenues of the In
dams are considered. The last census
taken about June 30. 1913, show 365
Indians living on this reservation d.
vided into about ninety families, Of four
children It will thus be seen that each
family owns property in the tribe
valued at more than $4,000 and had
cash income during the past fiscal year
of over 1865. Larger families, like
Young Bears, for instance. Of twelve
people. had three times the above
amounts as their share. Therefore it
pays these Indians TO rear large fam
flies az well as to raise good crops on
their farms
The present worth Of the property
