As announced by a dispatch in Sat urday afternoon’s daily papers of the state there is a movement among the republican papers of Nebraska to in duce the republican voters on pri mary day to show their actual choice by writing the name of Hughes on the ballot, placing a cross after it, and thus showing the real sentiment of the state. Editor Rosewater, of the Bee, has become especially interested and active in the furtherance of the plan, and several scores of republican papers in Nebraska have agreed to make a campaign along that line. The Independent’s readers will remember that this was this paper’s suggestion immediately after the supreme justice saw fit to withdraw his name from the printed Nebraska primary ballots and that it has been. That was the logical thing for Justice Hughes to do. He could not well afford, by his consent, to appear even a receptive candidate. He may even see it for the best to make his declarations still stronger before the convention day is here. It all should make no difference. No man in the country is large enough to decline a nomination if it has once been made. No man will attempt to decline it. Even for vice-president Mr. Roosevelt was once nominated di rectly against his wish, and stormed up and down the convention hall when the republicans drafted him for the vice-presidency. But he accepted. And it was well, for the party, at the time that it resorted to the drafting pro cess. Thousands of Nebraska repub licans feel, with thousands and hun dreds of thousands of other republi cans in every state in the union, that Mr. Hughes is the logical man if not, indeed, the one strong man, who can unite the party and lead it to success. The purpose of the primary is to en able them to express their real senti ment and the Omaha Bee is perform ing a valuable service by its effort to centralize the sentiment and the ef fort. Republicans cannot do any thing better for their party than to1 write the name of Hughes in the re publican primary ballot, next month, when they vote.—Grand Island Inde pendent. WE NEED A MAN. The reason why so many of us fail to achieve greater success in life is be cause we do not exert the necessary will power to accomplish more defi nite results. Look over the people of this town. Study their habits, their speech, and their accomplishments. You will find many of them who undoubtedly pos sess an enormous reserve of will power. Their every word and action indicates as much. But there is a per ceptible disposition to hesitate which prevents the bringing of that reserve force actively into play. The natural result is that they are only moderately successful when they should be rising to great heights. In this our people are in no respect different from those of other places and other climes. It is a trait of human nature and will survive until the end of the huuman race. Occasionally we read or hear of some great man who began life in an humble way. If you could look down deep into the soul of that man you would see that he is just a human being like the rest of us, with this ex ception. He has fought and con quered the retarder, hesitancy, and has brought into full action the will power that lies dormant in a ma jority of people. His normal mind perceives an opportunity and his will determination forces him to grasp it. The result is success. The world hears of him while the rest of us live and die in the peaceful obscurity of our own little circles. There are those among us who have in them the making of men and wo men of national note, but hesitancy dogs their steps. Their acute minds see the opportunities ahead of them, but hesitancy whispers to them to wait, and while they are wait ing opportunity marches on. It pauses for no man. This town is overflowing with brains, but most of them are lying dormant, working only as nesessity requires. As a community we need an awakening. We need a revival of will power and of determination. We need a big boot that will lift hesitation and procrastination into eternal obli vion and forgetfulness. We need action. But above all we need a commercial pastor for the flock. We need a man who has fought and conquered best tancy, who is achieving success him self, who will take us by the hand and lead us into the way of accomplish ment and results. We need a leader who can lead. We have such a man in our midst— you all know him—but hesitancy is making its last desperate appeal. He is fighting alone and valiantly in his efforts to finally and definitely divorce himself from all hesitancy and pro crastination. He has the heart, and the will and the desire to lead and to be of use to his fellow men, but diffi dency alone prevents. It is the last link in the chain of hesitation that still holds him in leash. We are writing this editorial for his benefit. We know he will read it and we hope it will serve as an inspiration and encourage him to make the su preme effort that will free him from all restraint and place his great in tellect and natural power of will at the disposal of our town and our community. We need this man. We need his counsel, his advice, and his leader ship. We need him now. PUBLIC SALE.

She called up a neighbor and her men were away—but: “We have Farris Colic Remedy that you drop on the horse’s tongue,” says Mrs. Neighbor.
