lola Register: Hon. J. y. Brewer,
one OF the Republican candidates
for the office OF lieutenant governor,
spent the forenoon in lola getting
acquainted with as many OF the peo-
pie as he could meet in that time
Mr.. Brewer Is engaged In the bust
ness OF general merchandising in
Abilene, and as a sort OF side line
ships something like 200 carloads OF
eggs to the outside markets each
year. He was q member of the state
senate le04-6 and made q splendid
reputation as q level-headed and
conservative legislator. Mr.. Brewer
has a fine reputation in the central
part OF the state where he has been
in business for more than thirty
years, and his Republicanism is OF
the stalwart kind whose devotion to
Republican principles is not In the
least affected by the question as to
whether or not the party happens to
be in the majority. He found a lot
of the same sort OF Republicans iE
lola and his brief visit here was
therefore a real pleasure to him.

H. T. Edge, M. A., in speaking OF
the meaning of life, in the Theoso.
phical Path for July, very signifi-
cantly says: ''The life that we live
is mainly composed of a continual
effort to avoid silence and stiffness.
But 1t is only in the silence and
stiffness that the meaning of life ls
to be found. Continual activity,
sensation, and diversion give us a
false sense Of existence that is hol-
low at bottom. When the soul cries
to speak, we are seized with horror
and try to drown its voice. The life
of our civilization, as a whole, is of
this character; It is noisy and super
ficial. To find the meaning of life,
we must seek the real behind the
unreal-seek 1t in the depths of our
own nature. We cannot define the
real; it must be experienced"

Senator Penrose replied to Roose-
velt that Taft had a majority in
the last national convention and
was entitled to the nomination.
That is precisely the point. We have
been contending all along that the
republicans had not learned any
thing. They insist they we're right
two years ago and to return the
party to power would be to endorse
their ition.--Lawrence Journal.
Which is waste of words. Have you
found any Republican who thinks
he was wrong in 1912 and have not
hundreds of thousands of Roosevelt
followers admitted they were wrong
and returned to Republicanism A
return to power-which is coming
will be an endorsement of Repub-
licanism and 1t Is the same good doc
trine now it was in 1912.

Open Season for Snakes

This is the open season for snakes
to make themselves free about the
yards and even occasionally In the
house. Mrs. G. s. Brewer was
frightened yesterday, when she en-
tered her home, to see a large snake
stretched out on the kitchen floor.
She ran for help and after a long
search the snake was found curled
up under q radiator in the parlor.
It was an unusually large one.
Other instances have been report
ed where snakes have entered homes.

New York Evening P

New York Evening Post: Col.
Rooseyelt's Pittsburgh speech is var
iously described as "reactionary"
and radical; as a "plea for har-
mony." and also as declaration OF
war to the knife. This is a tribute
to his versatility. But the question
presses: What does the speech sig
nifty for the Progressive party? Mr..
Roosevelt is It's leader as he was It's
sole begetter and has been Its mo-
nopolistic owner. Where Is he lead
ing It now? Frankly. into a blind
alley. 1t is not necessary at present
to take up again Mr.. Roosevelt's own
pet remedies for the trusts. They are
his usual melange Of Perkins and
Stubs, of social justice and big bus
mess. Out Of them all, aided by a
high tariff, he Is certain that he
could produce an era of great pros
perity, and a prosperity, moreover,
which he would insist upon being
handed round" He thus again Of
fers himself as the Little Father who
would give everybody work at dou-
bled wages. But 1t is not all a ques-
tion Of aspiration, or even q dema-
gogue's promise. How is he going toI
set about 1t practically? The whole
logic of his speech is that he will
have to attempt it through either
the Democratic or the Republican
party. The Progressives he has led
up against a dead wall.

Penrose is known to the people
OF Pennsylvania and they can be de
pended on to Judge him at election
Indications are that he will be elect
ed by big majority. He is making
his campaign straight on a test OF
his own popularity and Roosevelt's,
and asks the people Of the state to
make their choice. He polled more
votes at the primary than the Dem
ocrats and Progressives together.

An nervous letter to the Topeka
Capital sent from Abilene by some
of the Helvering force says that
John Prendergast and DR.. Garrett
have "laid down" in their fight on

show next August about that and
we miss our guess If there is not a
showing in Dickinson that will make
Helvering wish he had acted differ

pray for Helvering's denomination
for he, will be much easier to beat

Ohltuary-s. b. Hoffenall

Comrade s. B. Hoffenall was
born in Snyder county, Pennsylvania.
November 25, 1885, and died Of
heart failure in Salem, Oregon, June
2S, 1914, aged II years, 6 months
and 3 days. He spent his youth
and early manhood in his native
state, moving to Sandusky. county,
Ohio, in 1859. He enlisted in Com
pany A, 55th o. V. /. in 1852 to
serve for three years. Later he was
transferred to the v. r. c., Co. C,
oath regiment, from which he was
honorably discharged in August,
1865.
Soon after returning from the
army, he located in Richardson coun-
ty, Neb., where he engaged in farm
ing and stock raising. On January
4, 1866, he was united in marriage
with Miss Julia Heter. To this union
three children were born. In what
seemed very brief time, the wife
and youngest child were removed
by death, leaving him in sorrow to
care for those who remained.
On March IS, 1877, he married
Miss Rebecca Walker who with their
SON and two daughters, and the old
er children, remain to know the
loss of loving husband and indul-
gent father. They came to Abilene in
1907, in whose beautiful cemetery
all that remains of loved and hon
ored husband, father and comrade
was laid to rest July 5, 1914.
Comrade Hoffenall was largely
endowed with those qualities which
make up well rounded manhood,
careful, considerate, cheerful, gem
erous, Industrious, kind, obliging,
indeed brother to all. He was de-
voutly religious, faithful in all dut-al
les as he saw them. Our loss is his
infinite gain.

We do not know much about the

which it pays more than the fran
chise would have made the cost OF
the service to the city and will con-
