Editor Boswell of the CastlewoOd
Republican says that it is 10 time to
weaken under the recent trying eX-
p~erience. Since the settlement of the
country our people have had problems
to solve and difficulties to contend
with. The fellows who stuck were the
ones who won out and the same thing
will prove true during the future,
Brother Boswell is one of the old tim
ers and he knows it's true.
Up in Aberdeen they have a neat
way Of handling petitions which call
for elections or recalls in city affairs.
A locomotive engineer was asked to
sign a petition which lacked but a few
names of being complete. He looked
it over calmly and threw it into the
fire box where ii was consumed in
stantly. Nothing could be done OF
course and rather than go to work and
get the whole list Of signers to affix
their names again, the petitioners for
got their grievance and turned thei,
efforts to more profitable pursuits.
