HUGHES FOR PRESIDENT.
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.

Feed Out Your Hogs Six Weeks
Earlier.
In every lot of hogs on feed two or
three weeks quickly and actually eat
less than others. If all would fatten
like these, the entire drove would be
ready of the market six weeks earlier
and to save six weeks feed is an item
that you fully understand.
The hog that fattens easily must
be in prime physicial condition. The
B. A. Thomas Hog Powder is a con
ditioner for hogs. It keeps their
system clean and healthy and enables
them to fatten quickly without fall
ing a prey to the usual diseases of
hogs. The B. A. Thomas Hog Pow
der is not stock food. It’s straight
medicine, and we took the agency
because it enables you to feed out
your hogs much earlier.—J. J. Slom

Woman Cures Horse Colic.
The men were away as usual. The
horse was bad. A lone woman could
not “drench” in the old way. 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.
So she came over and dropped Farris
Colic Remedy on the horses’s tongue
and the horse was well when the
men came home. Moral: Get Farris
Colic Remedy so the women can cure
horse colic. We sell it at 60 cents a
