withdrawal from candidacy of Mr..
DObell, but Mr.. DObell's acceptance of
the nomination in the hands of the

not be withdrawn. Hence, now there
will be slaughter. The situation has

that Mr.. Scott having accepted the

Where are Our Democratic Friends at

If the statements of Mr. VOgt, candi-
date for the office of Lieutenant Gov
ernor on the democratic ticket in re-
gard to Senator Patterson are true
and we believe they are that Senator
Patterson. the candidate for Governor
on the Democratic ticket has stood
for the lawless element of the State
in the past and if elected for Governor
he will he expected to pardon con-
victed strikers, that in the past he has
fought his party in everything except
where it was personal interest to
him to do otherwise, that Mr. Costi-
gan the candidate for Governor on the
Progressive ticket is an attorney for
the strikers
II these two men are nominated by
their respective parties and we believe
they will be it seems to us that the
only recourse left for the law abiding
and law enforcing Democrats is to
vote in November for the Republi-
can party which has always stood for
the enforcement of law and for the
maintainance of order and for its can
didate for Governor

be-and advertising is the key to the situation.
You have certain fixed expenses that cannot be
materially reduced. Better sell so articles at gross
profit of 80 each than sell articles at gross
profit of so cents each. even though you have spend
two dollars in advertising in order sell the fifty

Nothing succeeds like success People like to
trade with firm that is doing good business:

The wisdom ol Woodrow
Boston Truth

(When the manufacturers Of the mid
die west called ON President Wilson
and asked for help he told them bland
ly their troubles were psychological. }
The Democratic Tariff came to bless 9
happy land;
And moderate reforms were planned
t6 break the blooming banks.
Official Ieace' with doves to match,
camped by the Rio Grande.
The South was drawing prizes, while
the North was drawing blanks.
Unseemly toll was frowned upon; the
lowly and oppressed
We're sent into the verdant fields, far
from the sweating mob,
Where free from work and master,
they could enter into rest
And study Woodrow's wisdom undis-
turbed by any job.
Though their food was graminivor-
Gus,
Cool, ascetic. non n-carnivorous,
Still they murmured at great Woodrow
And they prayed, Good Lord, deliver
u.s."
Some foolish manufacturers then wait
ed on the boss,
With beaming smile he spoke them,
as father to child:
Why worry about trifles such as idle
mills and loss?
1t was nobler to be bankrupt than to
be with cash defiled.
Great principles were now at work to
make the people think;
Fine theories were now being spun to
elevate the land.
Why grumble over industry and trade
gone on the blink
When altruistic virtue makes our
hearts and hats expand?
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1914-08-20
For a student biological,
Whose mind is philosophical,
Never worries ahOut trOuhIes

s'ho'S A.$AAA~ so PhiAoSoPhbSaIp
Never worries about troubles
That are purely psychological.
Then gang Of hungry voters, out of
work and out OF bread.
Waited on the mighty Woodrow with
his pedagogic smile,
They spoke Of home and hunger and
of wage and work now fed,
And the willy Woodrow answered. II
will place your case on file
There is nothing in our platform that
would seem to at your case;
Just at present 1 am busy with the
things that I must do,
To make Villas poems happy and to
elevate his race,
And probably a year from now l may
get around to you"
"Your complaints are-well-illogi-
cal,
Crude, and somewhat Pathological.
And to academic minds they seem
Unsound and psychological"
The pedagogue is living in castle
built in Spain.
Where vulgar things like wage and
work are utterly unknown,
Where trifes such as idleness. and hun
ger, grief and pain
Are never seen, and where for bread
the beggar gets a stone.
There Woodrow sits and dreams of
fields Elysian, far away,
OF stopping every wheel that turns ex.
cept those in his hat, I
Disdainful of the idle men who soon
will have their day,
Forgetful OF the voters who will soon
be at the bat
Soon will come days penological,
Angry, hot, unphilosophical.
When Woodrow's rot will get swat
in moments psychological.

A brief Resume of Rev. A. J. Walters
very strong and logical sermon de-
livered on last Sunday morning at the
Methodist Church.
The texts used by the preacher were:
when thou buildest a new house
thy roof that thou bring not blood up
on thy house, II any man fall from
thence" Deut. 22:S.
Wherefore II meat cause my BROTH
er to stumble l will eat no flesh for
evermore that cause not my brother
to stumble" Cor. 8:13
1t is good not to eat flesh nor to
drink wine whereby thy brother STUN
bie." Rom. 14:2l
The figure of liberty used In the
Christian Scriptures to illustrate the
Christian life is very pertinent one.
Christian liberty is a very real thing.
But 1t is liberty based upon and regula
ted by law-the law of love. All life
is conditioned on checks and controls
The very condition of life itself is the
remaining in its proper element So
Freedom is limited. Emancipation
freed the slaves. Instantly. automa-
tically restraints and obligations
sprang up to hem him in. Because he
was free irresponsibility of the slave
was his no longer. So the Christian
soul is emancipated and there is free
dom in Christian living but 1t is a free
dom regulated and controlled. The Is
raelite of olden time when he built q
house for his own comfort and. pleas
ure found himself confronted by . law
He must build his house with . .Dar-
apet around the roof to Drptstk Sthefs
even 41s-was perfscAly ssse that II
was unnecessary for hinself. So 80
ciety to-day rsstrains men from spit
ting - the sidewalk, from overspeed-
ing. from the use Of certain drugs.
Tho application of this law in civil
ICED community leavened with Chris
tian thinking leads men to give up
things and to submit to controls and
deprivations for the benefit of others.
l can no more argue effectuahy that
= thing does not affect me and there
fore shall continue to make, buy, sell
and use 1t, than could the Israelite
argue that he could build his house
as he please. Therefore it Is that So
ciety our modern democratic. chris
tianized Society says concerning the
Liquor traffic. "The liquor traffic must

ORIGIN OF BlACKMAIL.
The Term Was Born Of Outlawry on
the Scottish Border.

/
The etymology OF the EXPRESSION
"backmall'' is historically Interesting
III appears 10 have its origin on the
Scottish border and dating from times
whcn frequent political fcuds between
the then two Kingdoms OF the British
Islands tacitly justified sort of per.
ennial terrestrial buccanceIing as be.
tween borderers OF each realm.
Many Of these were outlaws on both
sides of the border Their ncighbor.
Ing victims to save their cattle from
being lifted sometimes compounded for
safety by an annual payment us insur-
ance to the bandits. This fee not only
gave them immunity. but entailed
them to protect them from rival free
hooters. 1t was their mail" or .pro.
lection" The mail" coach was so
named because 1t had its armed guard
with loaded blunderbuss on the dickey.
But the mail paid by border farmers
was not for honest royal protection.
but for guardianship by thieves. and
hence was BLACK" mail. the color of
black being typical OF what was nefa-
rious. whether In art or i'm guardian.
ship. while the guardian of this stamp
was known as the "blackguard" of the
district. The last named latter dav
term OF rcproach seems to have oh.
tanned its expression originally as here
dcscribed.-IUndon Field.
