THE COMMON PEOPLE.
Bv ]. Dallas Bowser.

The common people are the bulk of
the people of this country. 1t was
Abraham Lincoln who said that the
Lord must have loved the common
people more than any other class or
He would not have made so many OF
them. These are the people who go
about the task of getting up early and
working late for wife and children
and home. They are seldom brought
into the limelight to figure in a
dals and divorce cases. Their names
do not figure in the society columns
of the newspapers and they keep out
of Jail or disgrace. They are for the
most part loyal citizens loving their
flags and are obedient to the laws.
They are not the leaders of mobs nor
the abettors of the great wars. The
kings, m~ilitarists and radicals were
responsible for the world a 1t was
not the common people who put Jesus
to death and murdered Lincoln. OF
Jesus it was said: The common peo-
pie heard him gladly. 1t was h
common people of this country who
put prohibition on the map and wom-
an suffrage. 1t is the common peo-
pie who make up the rank and file
country. They are the faithful believ-
ers in the gospel of Jesus Christ and
are neither infidels nor agnostics.
1t is the common people who keep
their children regularly in school,
who find less fault with the teachers,
and who are the most loyal support
ers and patrons of their men in the
professions of medicine and the law.
1t is they who dig in the mines, cul-
tivate the farms and build the roads
and highways. They are not aristo-
Gratis nor snobs. When Jesus said to
his disciples I'VE are the salt of he
EARTH he was doubtless speaking to
common day laborers, men for the
most part without social standing,
education or fortune. Many Of the
great souls of the world who have
passed on to be enrolled in that
bright and shining galaxy of the I'm
mortals of the past, sprang from the
tang and mold of common life, from
Christ to Abraham Lincoln, from
Mary Magdalene to Joan of Arc, from
Crispus Attacks to John Brown from
Frederick Douglass to Paul Lawrence
Dunbar and from Garfield to Booker
Washington. The Common people are
still the salt of the earth" the en-
pire builders, members of the worlds
great parliament of MAN.

ACCIDENT DELAYS TEST
IN FIELDS WELL

Drillers Of the Fields we'll are exs
pressing delay in making a test due to
the breaking off of 4-inch casing which
was being placed as a liner. The break
occurred about 200 feet from the top.
An effort will be made to put down
six inch casing around the four-inch
and then draw the four inch, this be,
ing considered more practical than tt
draw the broken casing with regular
fishing tools.
This we'll has been the center of at.
tention among oil circles during the
past few days. 1t is generally believed
that if the we'll is properly haudled ii
will become a producer.
