SCANDAL.

Another conspicuous example has come to our
attention of who is locally in the public eye
having been grossly attacked by the tongue of
scandal. .--,
Our utmost endeavor to find some actual basis
for the talk has been in vain. Those who know him
best and have been most closely connected with him
repose the greatest confidence in him.
Yet people who profess to be followers of the
meek and lowy One and imtators of His virtues
complacently spread the deadly poison without the
apparent ability to give single substantiatng fact
worthy the attention of an intelligent man,
BY it not only is the good name of man be-
smirehed but the progress of worthy cause is re-
tarded
Nothing but the ceaselessy wagging tongue of
vindctive woman seems to be back of it all, If
single fact be produced to support the wierd
stories the public is entitled to the facts We feel
sure such fact cannot be produced.
We wonder why human nature is so very hu-
man. Without stopping to comment upon the bitter
malice of a gossp's tongue simply wonder why
We very prone to seize upon SANDER and ac-
eept it as true. Men and women not ordinarily
gullble take bait, hook, sinker, bobber, line and
pole and run off with them without looking to see
who holds the pole or who bangles the bait. With
out nhibiting against the suggestion of evil these
people accept it fact and loan themselves to the
murder of reputation, not only without COM
Function of conscience but actually with feeling
of superior virtue.
We can never build great institutions that way,
cities, states Besides being almost criminal
in nature, it is destructive instead of constructive
1t destroys but never builds.
The Journal will always be carrying big stick
for this reptile, scandal and will strike it hard
upon every occasion.
Until we, as communities frown down this fright
full habit of the country village we never hope
for the better day of bigger things.

Although this thought, as usually
expressed, has no reference to lit
eralt darkness and dawn, yet it is
based upon a scientific fact In
general, the darkest hour of night
Is. when the moon has sunk in the
west, while the sun is still below
the eastern horizon.
The saying, in one form or an
other, is found in all languages. 1t
Is first found in literature in the
works of Euripides, the Greek dra-
matist, (4S0-407 Il. ca whom Aris-
totlet calls the most tragic of poets.

1T DOESN'T PAY.

Bill Tite insists he will not buy,
while costs remain so blooming
high; he'll do without his every
need no matter if he goes to seed
'"The prices Of today kicks he,
ARE naught but highway robbery '
and none will say of William lite
that he was trimmed in broad day light"
And so it is that williams dress is
sprouting out with sloppiness; his .
hat is old---hs shoes are worn
and all his rags are sad and torn.
Bill Tite's appearance now is bad
because his clothes are worn and sad; l
with other folks he cant compete
because his makeup isn't neat
We all know how the money goes
when anyone is buying clothes; but
sloppiness, I'd like to state, will
bring a loss that's twice as great.

trict they will aggregate, say 5000
voters. Now it Is. expected that the

district will divide more or less
evenly in parties or factions, or
over a series of national questions.
| For numerous reasons each side
will want to win but neither has
an assured lead of 5000 votes over
the other side. Now comes your

all other questions.
Each side in the big division be-
lieves that the interests of the
country demand that it's general
program prevails; believes it so
strongly, perhaps, that 1t counts
