Back in 1905 Woodrow Wilson, then
president of Princeton, suffered from
one of his numerous attacks of log
orrhea. He was speaking at a din
ner of the North Carolina society.
“Nothing,” he said, “has spread so
cialistic feeling in this country more
than the use of automobiles. To the
countrymen they are the picture of
arrogance of wealth with all its in
dependence and carelessness.” Now
adays, Mr. Wilson’s campaign man
agers are depicting the “prosperity
which his administration is claimed
to have brought to the country—and
one of the arguments they adduce
is that the number of automobiles
owned here has vastly increased.
General Carranza wants the United
States to agree to keep its army out
of Mexico. That’s easy. All the
Greasers have to do is to scrub their
souls and then behave themselves.

ocean, from the lakes to the gulf, the
wave of enthusiosm is rolling. The
people are realizing that they must
have better roads, and the machinery
of government in its taxing capacity j
is being ever more and more strained
to meet this demand.
But while there is a certain respon
sibility resting upon the state in the
maintenance of our highways, we are
in danger of forgetting that an even j

why we sometimes lose sight of this
responsibility is that we Americans
have gotten into the habit of working
out all such matters through the medi
um of taxation. If we want a new
greater responsibility rests upon us.
road opened, we levy a tax. If we
want an old road repaired, we
tax some more. Is a bridge to be
built? We impose another tax. We
tax and we keep on taxing, and this,
regardless of the fact that we all
know that the hardest money to give
up is that which is paid In taxes, j
Many a man will come to town and
spend in a day enough to pay his
yearly taxes and think nothing of it.
But he will sweat drops of blood, as
it were, when the tax gatherer rounds
him up.
We depend too much upon taxes.
We should depend more upon individ
ual and personal effort. A lively
neighborhood interest in good roads
is worth all of the taxes you can wring
from unwilling pocketbooks. A deter
mination by a united citizenship of a
county that their roads shall excel
is worth more than all of the road
commissioners in existence. Road
commissioners work through devious
ways to reach their object. The united
sentiment of a people works direct
to the object. It determines what is
wanted and then takes the most di
rect route to accomplish its ends.
Do you favor better roads in this
community? Then go to work and
arouse a healthy community senti
ment that will demand them. When
that is accomplished good roads will be
the result.
And just a few words more. Real
ize your own responsibility. Say to
yourself, “the roads of this communi
ty belong partly to me. and I owe a
duty to them.” Don't depend upon a
benevolent government, national,
state, county or township, but should
er your own responsibility. Then you
will be in a fair way to get your
neighbor to do likewise.
Try it!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING
What are you doing for Loup City?
What are you doing to justify your
ctizenship in Loup City?
You can not sit down, criticise, let
others do the work that makes a
town or community, and still call
yourself a good citizen.
The good citizen never thinks only
of self. He must necessarily think of
self or he would not survive, but good
citizenship requires more than that—*
much more.
It requires that you keep in mind
that there are others who have rights
and are entitled to have those rights
respected by others—by you. On the
^ame basis you are entitled to have
your rights equall respected by them.
That is good citizenship—partially.
In addition, the good citizen re
members that his town is entitled to
his best efforts in its behalf, to the
end that the interests of the com
munity may be advanced b all legiti
mate means.

of cattle for Monday were fairly lib
eral, some 494 loads, about 12,700
head. There were very few loads of
corn-fed cattle here out of the 494
loads received, and this gave dealers
little opportunity to get anything
like a real test of the tone of the
market. What cattle were here were
not of a particularly good quality, but
prices for the most part w'ere con
sidered fully steady with last week’s
close, or possibly a little stronger.

Shippers had next to no orders at
all for hogs for Monday, and the odd
loads they did buy were around a
quarter lower. One or two of the
packers made a few 15@25c lower
bids on the start, and sellers who
were fortunate enough to get these
early bids made the high sales of the
day. The average trade was around
25@ 30c lower, bulk of the sales be

top reached $9.75.
