. P NEW YEAR

With this issue The Pioneer closes
its work for the year 1914, and we
take the opportunity to thank our
many readers and patrons for their
loyal support during the'year.
Humorists and others frequently
and continually picture the life of the
country editor as all "grief." Every
one knows Of his desperate struggle to
keep the wolf from the door, even to
the extent Of accepting cabbages, po'
tatoes, or anything else edible, as his
lawful wage At times the editor
makes an appeal himself, and urges
his readers to call and pay their sub
scriptions in order that the moulder
OF public thought and opinion may
make himself presentable by wearing
a new pair Of trousers-the pair he
purchased three years ago having
reach a condition where patching
availeth naught. Again, the reading
public is called to enjoy the pleasant
thought that frequent journeys are
made by the irate subscriber to the
editorial sanctum to visit just punish
ment upon the person of the editor
with his fists or a stout club for some
thing said or unsaid. And so on the
story goes.
Such may be the case in some pla-
ces, but our experience has been any
thing but unpleasant the past twelve
months. In fact, we have even en-
joyed our life rs a country editor.
Each day has had some pleasure for
US. Many have called at our desk,
some with a word of cheer; some with
the stuff that "makes the mare go'
and ordered us to ''send Ter along an
other year, some brought us an in
teresting news item. The merchants
of the city have used space in our pa
per literally to let our readers know
Of the bargains they have had to offer.
Those in need of job printing Of vari-
Gus kinds have trusted US with their
orders. People with subscription
lists come and a US pleasantly Tor
what we can give to help their aus
along. All these things have given
US cause to rejoice that we are in the
business. Of course there have been
times when everything was not pleas
ant. AS others make mistakes, and
often will, SO have We. Unpleasant
matters have had to be righted. We
are sorry that such occasions arise,
and endeavor to the best of our ability
to avoid them. Their use in this life
is to make US appreciate its pleas
ures.
Again we thank you all, and wish
that the year 1915, which is now an IN.
known promise Of the Future, may
bring health, prosperity and happi.
ness to all.

What's the Harm?

Two Irish farmers who had not

There has been a good deal of spec
ulation as to where the Republican
party could secure a candidate for
president in 1915, who would be able
to run the United States in case he
vas elected. After reading several
issues Of a weekly published In Fargo
in the interest Of good government,
etc., we are willing to whisper to the
convention the name of a party who
is not only able to run the govern
ment, but tho whole universe, If given
u chance. Talk about your watchful
waiting! He's everybody-and still
shouting for assistance.

1t is to be regretted that the farmers
in this Immediate vicinity did not
take advantage of the invitation
of the Commercial Club and attend the
smoker given Monday evening at the
City Hall. The interests of the bust
ness men of a city and the farmers of
the community are mutual in many re-
spects, iand it would do them both
good to get together occasionally and
talk matters over. We hope that an
other attempt will be made to hold a
meeting OF this kind, and that a good
attendance of both farmers and bust
ness men will result. There is too
much benefit for both to let the matter
drop after a single attempt.

ISOLATION has decided not to condIct a
summer school for girls. Misc Ha!gler,
educational secretary of the association,
made the announcement aftet confer
ence with Mr.. Graft who declared that
1t would be more practical for private
tutors to teach the girls who desired spe-
cial instruction during the summer.
The failure of plans for the girls vaca-
ton school will leave the girls without
any organized school where they can
make up work since the school board will
not conduct one this summer. However.
the vacation school for boys planned by
the Young Mems Christian association, is
assured. 1t will open Monday, June p.
Miss Fanny Forsyth, principal of Wal

the public summer school, will assist in
the registration. The departmental sys-
tenn Of teaching will be used, there being
a teacher for each subject. The cost will
be 80 for high school subjects and s. for
those of the grades, Teachers approved
by the school authorities are being re-
talned for the work.

BACK TO HOME AND MOTHER
High School Cadets Return from
Week at Missouri Valley.
COMPANY H GETS THE HONORs
Wins Relay Race Friday, While
Companies A and F Are SECOND
and Third-Camp Most Sue
cessfuI for Years.

Tired, weary sun-burned and otherwise
fatigued. the Omaha High school cadet
regiment clambered out Of a Northwestern
train at Union station yesterday morning
shortly after Il O'CLOCK and began ,heir
march up through town to the High
school, where they stacked their arms
preparatory to retiring to their homes tc
get their first reai rest in a week.
The cadets were considerably more
worn out this year than previous years
Rain, which seemed to take delight IN
falling every night just at the time II
was possible to rest peacefully and
quietly, cut the hours of rest short at
camp, and last night was a bit worse
than before. Also the cadets were piled
out Of their tents at 4:SO this morning to
pack up the baggage and prepare to re-
turn home.
But for all the tired feeling, a grin
appeared on the face of every cadet,
showing that at least they were happy
and happiness is all that is essential
The cadets trooped up Farnam street
with more or less military discipline The
band played martial tunes and the cadets
were quite effective in blocking the
traffic at Sixteenth and Farnam streets
for several moments. At Seventeenth the
march wheeled north to Douglas, then
on to the High school grounds
Considerable CONSERVATION was ex-
perIcnced by several Of the officers by
n few unruly cadets, who were anxious
20 get home. At Tenth and Farnam
streets they bolted from the ranks and
boarded a passing Dodge car, which was
much more comfortable transportation
than pounding the pavement.
Company u Wins Honors.
Company II returned with final honors,
winning the relay race at the last minute
Friday Company A was second and
Company was third.
The officers Of the battalions announced
upon their return that the camp was the
most successful held in several years,
despite the rain. The parade grounds
were in good condition during the cay
time and frequent drills were held The
captains OF the various companies assert
that the efficiency of their commands
was materially increased ana all hope to
turn in scores near perfect at the COM
potitive drill this week.
The cadets were unanimous in their
praise of Lieutenant Test who accepted
the commandants office at the last
minute, as Captain stritzinger was not
able to attend. Entering the office al
most unknown to any Of his charges, he
soon became the friend of every indl-
vidual cadet, and 1t was largely due to
this that the camp was such a success.
