contest was between Nearer. My

no difference. 1t is a noble poem

With the opening of spring tn.
population of Julesburg is materially
increasing with the advent of num-
Der of hoboes. They have commenc-

and from their activities in going

expect our permanent citizens to feed
them. We will agree that there are
some cases where man is in unfor-
tunate circumstances and is deserv-
ing of help. but in great many in
stances the knights of the road" are
a class imbued with wanderlust, and
total abstainers from exercise of the
muscles. Instead they would rather
ply their trade of living off the pub
lie by the "hand-out" method. 1t is
hoped that the city officials will take
drastic action soon to prevent the
hoboes becoming too numerous here,
as they are in most cases undesirable
transients.
