WELLS ON WILSON.

The president of the United States
is more in the nature of selected
man than any other conspicuous fg-
ure at the present time. And be it
remembered that Mr.. Wilson is not
the first great president the United
States have had, he is one of SER
les of figures who tower over their
European contemporaries. The Unit
ed States have had many advantag-
eous circumstances to thank for pres.
ent ascendancy in the worlds af-
fairs; isolation from militarist pres
sure for century and quarter,
vast virgin continent, plenty of
land, freedom from Capitalization,
freedom from titles and social vul-
garities, common schools, real demo-
cratic spirit in their people, and a
great enthusiasm for universities, but
no single advantage has been so
great as this happy accident which
has given it a specially selected man
as its voice and figurehead in the
worlds affairs. 1t is to the United
States of America we must look now
if the world is to be made "safe for
democracy."-H. G. Wells in the
New Republic.

any doubtful measure. Being a gem
uine farmer and, unlike Mr.. Town
ley, a successful one, he has ever
been alert to promote the 5es. in
terests of those who cultivate the
soil.
Although Townley has succeeded in
hookwinking considerable number
of farmers in Polk county he could
not hoodwink honest James Cum
ming, as the following letter to
Charles w. Barnes, Townley's cam
paign manager, conclusively proves.
"In all my past, as a citizen and
as a member of the legislature, |
have opposed any favoritism to any
class of people, and am opposed
to any plan which seeks to, or may,
array one class of our people against

speedily discovered that the patriotic
farmers of the state would not stand
for anything that smacked of dis
loyalty and he changed his tune. The
leopard cannot change his spots, and
Townley's loyalty is still doubted.
One of the few farmer members
of the last legislature indorsed by
Mr.. Townley and his imported, satel-
lites was Hon. James Cumming of
Polk county, whose farm is located
near the North Dakota line. Mr.. Cum
ming is of Scotch parentage and a
Canadian by birth, and, as is typlc-,
al of men of his race, is endowed
with a large stock of common sense,
and no one who knows him would
dream of questioning his integrity.
He was a member of the house at
the last session of the legislature,
and he also served in the house IN
the 1899 and 1901 sessions. He is a
quiet and unassuming gentleman and
not given to much talking. But he

Farmer Refuses
II. p. Endorsement

\ Mr.. Townley, his grating gang of
political buccaneers and their small
try hirelings and echoes are yoci-
ferously proclaiming that them. and
they alone, represent the farmers of
Minnesota, and that all those who
refuse to support their puppets for
office are opposed to the farmers. AS
a matter of fact only a small frac-
tion of the farmers of the state have
identified themselves with Townlev
and his parasites. No one has ques-
toned the loyalty or patriotism of
the rank and file of the farmers who
have been misled by Townley's sop
histries. but many do question his
loyalty of his principal lieutenants,
and with good reason, too, as Town
ley himself is under Indictment, SO
are others of his gang, and several
have already been tried and convict
ed OF disloyalty and sentenced to
terms of Imprisonment.
At the outbreak of our trouble
with Germany Townley's utterances
were anything but patriotic. But he

THE EDITOR LIED.

We overheard a man remarking
the other day that the reason he did
not take the Manson papers is that
all editors are liars. While we know
that the reason he does not take the
Manson papers is that he has dead
beated both of them out of several
years. subscription, we will admit
that he told the truth about editors
being liars. Fact is, we never told
the truth about that man. We al
ways lied about him, but we will not
lie this time. When he got married
over twenty-five years ago, we pub
lished in this paper that he was an
honest, Industrious young man, That
was lie and we knew it. He was
deadbeat before he ever got married
and owed for his board, room and
washing that he did not pay then and
never has paid since. He owed for
chewing tobacco, clothing and any,
thing he could get trusted for and he
never paid the debt. He was not in.
dustrious. but was notoriously lazy,
a hulking lout and loafer who would
not work if he could possibly get out
of it, and then, when forced into
work he was shirk and sneak, al
ways trying to put the heaviest work
on his companions. We said he would
make a good home for his wife. That
was lie. He never owned home Of
his own and does not own one now,
but he has to pay his rent in advance
every month. We said his wife was a
handsome and accomplished young
lady. This was several lies. She was
homlier than the back end of the
buildings that front on Main street in
Manson, Iowa; she had no accomp-
lishments except to chew gum and
talk slang. She was young, but she
was not a lady, as she had pretty
shady reputation. When her father
died we told another lie, for he said
the old man was a prominent, high
I ly respected citizen, when he was a
notorious chicken, coal and horse
feed thief and everyone hated him
and would have been glad he died
had it not been for the fact that the
county had to bury him. When oul

SCHOOL BOARD DECIDES TO
TAKE TWO MORE PROPERTIES

The board OF education held a spe-
cial meeting last evening and decid-
ed to take the two properties east of
the Brown block to add to the half
block already secured for the new
high school building. In consider
ing the plans for the new building
it was decided that the lots already
acquired would not be wide enough
to give an adequate frontage for the
building. The two properties had
been included in the original pro-
ceedings so that all that is necessary
for the board to do is to pay the as
sessed price for them.
The board has not yet decided
when the auction will be held to sell
the buildings on these properties,
but ample notice will be given.

Henry Kloepfer did not swear
the Jury says so. He was arrested in
Hope on a charge of using profane
language. He and George Dunlop had
a quarrel over a line fence. They
grew rather warm in their argument
but finally parted. Then both were
arrested for swearing. Dunlop
pleaded guilty, but Kloepfer denied
it. He was found guilty in the JUS
tice court and appealed to the dis
trict court. Six witnesses said he
swore; he declared he did not and

and acquitted him. Hope will feel

obituary-wiIIiam Bebermeyer.

/ w
William Bebermeyer was born in
Warren County, Mo-. December 16,
1S48. Here he lived during his
childhood and youth. He was mar
ried to Emma Femmer, and the
young couple made their home in
Lincoln County, Mo-, where they liv-
ed until they moved to Kansas in
1907. When they came to Kansas
they made their home north of Abb
lene in the Central Buckeye neigh
borhood where they lived until his
departure to the better world Jan
uary 23, 1918.
Mr. and Mrs Bebermeyer are the
parents of ten children. Three of
these are married, while seven are
yet making their home with them
Those that are married are Phillip
Bebermeyer of Talmage, Oscar of
Industry, and John of Detroit neigh
borhood. Those at home are: Sam
uel, Rebecca, Emma, Martha, Elmer,
Oliver and Orion. Mr.. Bebermeyer
and his esteemed family have always
been loved and highly respected
wherever they have lived for their
integrity, industry and thrift.
Mr.. Bebermeyer united with the
German Methodist Episcopal church
as a young man, and in that church
was for many years a prominent
member in official relation. He was
a constant reader of the German Ad-
vocate, and always well acquainted
with the preachers in that church.
During his residence in this commun-
ity he has been a member of this
church from which he was laid to
rest. He loved his church and rejoic-
ed in her prosperity, but above all he
loved his God, and enjoyed singing
songs of praises to His name. Among
the last words he spoke was those
about his Great Physician. In Mr..
Bebermeyer passed away man who
has spent a useful life, been a good
neighbor, loyal citizens, a true hus-
band and a loving father.
Besides the above mentioned wife
and children there remain to mourn
his departure three brothers and
three sisters, also three grandsons.
Mr.. Bebermeyer funeral was
held at the Methodist church Sunday
at 2 D. m. The pastor, Rev. G. L.
Hovgard, preached the sermon and
the choir had charge of the singing,
after which the remains were laid to
rest in Livingston cemetery.

w. A. MATTEsoN INJURED.
Shot May Cause Loss of Sight In
Right Eye.

w. A. Matteson, postmaster, was
badly injured yesterday when a num-
Der of detected B. BIS from shot
gun, struck him in the face. One
entered his right eye, another pass
ed thru his lower lip and lodged in
his tongue. 1t is feared that he will
lose the sight of his right eye. Mr..
Matteson, accompanied by DR.. T. R.
Conklin, left for Kansas City at noon
today, where a specialist will operate
on the eye and remove the other
shot.
Mr.. Matteson, Frank Pennington
and Dr. Conklin were out south of
town hunting and at the time of the
accident, Matteson was ahead of the
others. Pennington shot into some
hedge and the shot was detected at
least 25 feet. About 10 of the B. BIS
struck Matteson in the face, passing
thru his cheek, in the eye and in the
mouth. The force of the shot was
sufficient to knock Mr.. Matteson
down.
DR.. Conklin said today that it is
his opinion a careful operation can
save the sight OF the eye. The other
b. BIS can be removed without leav-
ing scare where they entered. 1t
may be some time before Mr.. Matte
son will be allowed to return to Abb
lene
