The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1917-10-20
SOME E

Colonel Roosevelt could not go to the front, as he desired
to do, but he sent his four sons to fight for the family. In the
meantime he enlisted for the war at home. He'has been max
ing speeches-he has been writing editorials by telegraph and
he is also publishing a book on "The Foes of Our Own House
hold" In these manifold ways he is going to do his share OF
the fighting. There is plenty of fighting to be done at home
and the test is upon each of us to do his share and to do 1T
bravely. For this home warfare the colonel has evolved new
paragraphs, among which are these:
If a man is too conscientious to fight, then HI rest OF III
ought to be to conscientious to let him vote.
A man has n right . the things that do not belong to him;
fend her
The paror pacifst represents decadence.
There is no o contemplate privilege than the privilege
of existing in SNUG, selfrighteous peaceful safety. he"
drawer, seIfsacrifcing e give up safety and go to a to pre-
serve the nation.
The man who feels that the country ives him everything
and that he owes the country nothing will pay just what he
thinks he owes-nothing.
Colonel Roosevelts ringing sentences are just what the
country needs at the present time. He can do more to set mil
lions of men right in the course of one speaking campaign than
ten men in the land, no matter how high their stations
may be. 1t is because the colonel speaks out and is not afraid.

Newark, DEL, Please Notice

In the picturesque language of
George Ade, "the train seldom
hesitates in going to Oskaloosa,
Kas.' The depot is more than a
mile from the town.
Richard Earle, of "a Daughter
of the Sun" company, which is the
attraction at the Orpheum this
week, was visiting a friend there
last Summer, and having a bus
mess engagement in st. Joe, he
was in hurry to connect with the
only train that left the town that
day. He was riding to the depot
in the hotel bus and was greatly
annoyed by the bad road and the
general debility Of the team.
Finally, when the balky horses
stopped altogether and Earle
heard the whistle Of the train in
the distance, he lost patience and
turning to the driver of the stage,
said:
What on earth made they build
that depot so far from the town p
The bus driver shifted his qud
of tobacco. Because they wanted
it to be near the railroad, l reck.
