Over the County
SOUTHWEST BREEZES
By Romaine Saunders
Cap Addison made a business
trip to the county seat Tuesday.
George Traver, of Amelia, is
away at present on a trip to Colo
rado.
Ed Kilmurry, of Atkinson, ac
companied H. L. James to Gordon
one day last week, a thoroughbred
cattle sale being the inducement.
The claim of democratic spell
binders that there is to be no ad
ditional taxation probably implies
they don’t know of anything more
to stick a tax on to.
The campaign to reduce automo
bile accidents, begun the first of
the year with an appeal from
President Roosevelt, and the war
launched for the extermination of
crows, have produced no visible
results.
Raymond Blyhad an early morn
ing walk Sunday. He had left his
car in Amelia for repairs the day
previous, starting to hoof it over
with the thought of being overtak
en by a car conveying some Sun
day worshipers to church, but had
got this far without being picked
up, a distance of three miles. He
may have had better fortune be
fore the remaining five miles were
strode thru.
The democratic caucus for Swan
was held at Art Doolittle’s last
Thursday night. Courtesy was
shown republicans by placing a few
of them on their ticket, though en
dorsing none of the republican
precinct ticket. The list of caucus
nominees follows: John Kennedy,
clerk; A. C. Watson, treasurer; H.
L. James, assessor; Will Crandall,
justice of the peace; road overseer
district 53, Art Doolittle; district
68, Will Dierks; district 69, Claud
Lierman.
“Soak the rich.” Does that
sound like good American doctrine?
Maybe a limited class heavily laden
with wealth who keep a hundred or
so fancy horses and feed them on
oatmeal or the simple-minded
dames giving twenty-thousand dol
lar parties for a dog might be
soaked a little harder, but it ap
pears to us no system of govern
ment nor partisan program has a
call to discriminate against one
class in favor of another. More
over, wealth has been acquired in
most instances by wise industry.
Such that have come within the
scope of my acquaintance have not
shirked any responsibility due the
government, have been worthwhile
neighbors, thoughtful of and help
ful to the less fortunate.
There is a certain charm about
an autumn night if you chance to
be out in the great open spaces far
removed from the flash of city
lights. There is also a mystery in
the gloomy shadows; a sense of
lonliness, of helplessness, of dread
when enfolded in darkness with not
the glimmer of a remote star pene
trating thru the night. I remem
ber the horror of passing an aban
doned graveyard at night as a
young boy. It lay on the route
home and the fewremaining graves
held a nameless terror in those
slanting slabs of weather-stained;
marble. It was a period just em
erging from ghosts and goblins
and elfin fairies. Those grave
stones stood ghost-like in the ter
rifying shadows of oak and maple;
weird sounds of creatures of the
night in the treetops above the
sepulchers of the dead—a combin
ation all that just about scared the
daylights out of kids who had to
pass that way at night. Boys in
my neighborhood got to “ganging
up’’ on these horrors and would all
go home together. But I had in
mind at the beginning of this para
graph the facination of a clear Oc
tober morning down here in the
southwest—one of those occasional
periods of a rare atmosphere just
after sunrise when you can see
from Dakota to Kansas. The fresh
ness of a new' day, mental and
physical vigor renewed after a
night’s repose, beauty and inspir
ing grandeur in distant landscape
and gorgeous tinted treetops. Some
thing in it all invites us to turn our
face and our faith up to the Infin
ite and gives us a little better start
for a hard day ahead.
