THE BOY OR THE HOG.
For some weeks ow farmers all over
the states and counties have been
flocking to the local fairs, some to ex
hibit to the public^ the results of their
efforts and others to see and observe
and profit by the results achieved by
their fellows.
Among the many attractions to be
seen at these fairs is the inevitable
big fat hog. His hogship usually tips
the beam aroung one thousand pounds,
and we stand and marvel at the labor
and patience it must have required
to develop such swinish perfection.
Then if we are thinking men our
thoughts will probably pass on to
wonder if the owner of this marvel
has sons of his own, and as to how
great an effort he is making to de
velop them to the highest type to
which they are capable of attaining.
The hog’s owner has been careful to
eliminate from its progenitors all that
would tend to take from its full and
complete development. Has he been
just as careful to weed out of his own
life habits and traits of character
that would militate against the de
velopment of his son?
Often we have seen a boy succeed
in life despite the shortcomings of a
derelict father, and we have content
ed ourselves with the simple remark
that the boy is a great improvement
on the father. The tribute is weak
and paltry. Little do we reck of the
fight the boy has waged in order to
rise above his surroundings and over
come his handicaps.
Environment is might and powerful
for good or evil. The greatest bless
ing a boy can have is parents who can
point and guide him toward higher
things, higher heights even than those
to which they have attained.
At the risk of seeming to preach we
wish to say to the fathers of this sec
tion that when you look up the big hog
you have seen the ultimate. Nothing
further is obtainable unless, possibly,
it be a little more of the same por
cine perfection. But when you look
upon your small son, how little you
can see of the limitless possibilities
tot good and ill that lie in that small
mind and heart, and how your care
of him is going to mould his life into
almost whatever you may will to make
it!
Why not think less of the big hog
and mroe of the small boy?
JUST NEIGHBORLINESS.
Stop a minute! Think of the great
humanizing quality of neighborliness.
Contrast a community where it
thrives and flourishes with one where
it is a negligible quantity.
Consider how gregarious a creature
is man, and how his very nature de
mands intercourse with his fellows.
Sit down and reckon up the percent
of your comfort and happiness that
depends in whole or in part on the

good will of your neighbors.
Think what you would be without
neighbors—a modern Robinson Cru
soe, a hermit.
Honestly, now, don’t about nine
tenths of the enjoyments of life come
either directly or indirectly from your
neighbors? They certainly do.
Well, now, are you doing your part
as a neighbor? Remember, your neigh
bor needs a neighbor as badly as you
do—and you as he. Are you doing
your full part to pass along the little
acts of neighborliness and kindness
that are extended to you? Or are you
like the sponge, absorb until you are
full and never give up until you are
squeezed?
Now ask yourself this question:
“What would this world he if every
other man were just like me?
Are you a neighbor, or a sponge?
Be a neighbor.
WESTERN NEBRASKA AND THE
STATE TICKET.
It has been often said that the en
tire west end of the state will go for
the democratic candidate for govemer
this fall because he is a western man.
Most of these reports, however, come
from democrats who wish it were true
instead of knowing anything about it.
Here is what Mr. A. B. Wood, editor
of the Gering Courier, said in a recent
issue of his paper:
“Both political parties had head
quartesr on the fair grounds. I vis
ited both, too, for I have some friends
on the democratic ticket. But it is
amusing to hear the foolishness of
some of the demorcratic rooters who
are telling the folks down that way
that Keith Neville will carry the west
end of the state because he is a west
ern man. Take it from me, there is
nothing to it. No man who is closely
allied to the booze interests and who
owes his places on the ticket to that
fact alone, can or will carry this sec
ton. ' I know dozens of democrats, and
can name them, who will vote for
Judge Sutton because of that fact, and
when it is considered that the normal
republican majority out this way is
brutal in size, the fallacy of such a
claim becomes apparent. They might
claim the wet republican will cross
the line to balance the score, but the
trouble with that claim is that there
are not a corporal’s guard of wet re
publicans in this whole end of the
state.”—Bloomfield Montor.
Rev. E. M. Steen and E. G. Taylor
returned home Saturday evening from
Hastings.

Re-Election for

Discussing the Indorsement by the
Democratic convention of Texas of
Mr. Wilson's Mexican policy, the
Houston Post (Dem.) flatly declares:
! “It is not believed anything like a
majority of the people of Texas In
dorse our Mexican policy, and those in
a position to know seriously doubt
that the platform adopted expressed
the real sentiments of the convention
itself.”
\he Omaha Bee couples woeful
waste with watchful waiting as a
Democratic failing.
Boiled down, the best that has been
said of President Wilson's Mexican
policy was that he had good Inten
tions. We’ve often heard of a road
paved with this kind of material.
The President Is deceived If he be

Is not more praiseworthy than that
which he has made.
