There is trouble enough with the pesky eggs, tho light bonded hens, the gaps, tho mites, the rats ami so on without limit but a Hood that wlpos thorn all away with ono fell swoop is the last straw that breaks the camel's bauk. Hirango how good the other follriw's job looks. Wo see him at his best, having mi easy tlmo and gntherlng in the coin and wo think that If wo over make a ohruiyo we will onler his lino of work. And very likely he looks nt us and wishes that he hnd just sueh an easy life. Tho trouble is wo do not know tho drawbacks, tho disappoint ments, the leaks, tho failures that go to make up the other stdo of tho pie til re. itut depend upon it ninety nine times out of ahundred thootherfellow has his grief and he knows that all things are not gold that glitters. At presont nil eyes aro on tho farm er but we notice that ho has his rain or drouths, bugs and worms, tired muscles and broken fences. If ho docs not plan his work just right he is numbered with tho has bcons and If ho does ho isoutitlod to all he gets. No sir, the other fellow's path Ms. not nil strewn with roses. Head the advertisements In the UUIrSF, they contain information which is valuable to you. Our advor tlsors aro people of honesty and intrcg ity and it will pay you to investigate tholr wares. Wo would not knowingly print n misleading advertisement as It bus boon tho policy of this paper tore fuso advertising that has tho appear atico of fraud or fake. Our advertis ing columns are open to the reliable merchant and wo aim to protect our subscribers in every way possible. The finest corn that wo have seen this year grows right besldo our work shop. Wo do not know the reason for this but wc were informed by a kind soul tho other day that it wus because of the breezy zephyrs that blow from this sanctum sanctorlum which gives the vitalizing impetus to tho growing grain. If that has anything to do with tho erops in this county we will mnko n strenuous elFort to increase our circulation mid give everyone un equal ohnuco. One fifty n year is cheap fertilization oven for a garden spot. The experiment is worth trying. We get our mail nt Hod Cloud, tho grow iug city. Have you noticed how many hard working people arc giving time and money gratuitously to build up tho circulation of J. A. Waylnud's Appeal to Reason and thus pile up more wealth for the notorious grafter His hold ings embrace real estate, mining, manufacturing and railroad stock. Ho is now worth overu million dollars. He is a socialist for revenue only, and tho shame of it is that the people who support him don't rtalizo this fact. If it Is against socialist ideas to pile up nionoy why does he do it, and why don't ho divide some of his surplus with the poor ipeoplo who liolped to make him a millionaire'.' Simply be cause ho don't beliovo what he preach es and is nothing but an agitator for the money he gets out of It, Alum Record. Lortftc and Church Directory A ' Charity Lodgo;No. fin, A. I and A.

JEWJIOBSE'S CSKMi Now is tho time when the country newspaper men are receiving letters from 111011 ihey do not know, and possi bly never heard of, stating tho writer Is n candidate for some state olllcoand any aid tho editor can bestow will be greatly appreciated. Yes, no doubt it would. On the other hand any aid tlieso politicians can bestow the editor to recompense him for space used in his papor would be appi eclated. If politicians want lo advertise their business why in the dickens don't they Include 11 check as ovldence of good faith, for the uuiouut of suhertlsing thoy deslro and send along copy prop erly signed, for advertising? Talk about business. Ifiheieisany busi ness In a newspaper man giving away his spiice any more than a merchant giving away hi goods we aio unable to sco whore it conies in. Occasionally one will hear tho to mark, "I wish I was out of this town," and then 0110 feels liko saying, "I wish you were." for a man who stands on tho street corners chewing and spit ting, tolling obscene stories, cursing the town, finding fault with Ills grand mother becauso she was n woman, claiming that the merchants are a lot of thioves, that tho lawyers and nows papor men would skin a man to n llu ish, nnd n whole lot more, Is u mils mice nnd an abomination. Any town pestered with ono ormorosuch worth ies would bo justified in exorcising cowhide authority on the bosom of tholr pants. No ono is obliged to livo where he is not suited. If ono hasn't au encouraging word for the business enterprise and institutions of his town, he should shut up and "go 'wny back and bit down." If things don't suit you, move to where they will. A growler nnd sorehead in a town is an enterprise killer evory time. It would pay a town to donate him So nud tell him to inovo. Communicated Editor UHlEr: Some tlmo ago I no ticed tho Invitation in tho columns of your paper to assist you in mnking your Chief something of value to your subscribers. Accepting that invltat Ion I desire to call your attention to a few tilings which I consider fundi mental. People outsido of n given vo cation may spmetimes see things which uro concealed to the artist. What I have to say will bo from the standpoint of 11 subscriber. In the first place I well romembcr years ago that we waited eagerly for our home papor not for the nows which it con tained but for tho position the editor took upon timely topics. In those days tho editor was in a large measure the moulder of public opinion and the reason for this was that ho voiced his own opinions in his paper. Nowadnj 8 It seems as tho editors strive to find out what will please the fancy of their readers and then givo a little medicine lu sugar coatod pills. Thoy do not seem willing to take a stand or as sumo any responsibility. I behove that it is tho duty of an editor to kcop abreast of the timos, praise any worthy notion, advocate needed reforms nnd condemn in no unccrtc.iu terms when necessary. An editor should not be nfiaid to say what he boliovos nnd he should say it for tho good of the com munity. I liavo boon pleasod nt tim.es with your openness nnd apparent fair ness but I am confident that you would suit us just as well if you as sumed a moro agrcssivo position, call a spado a spado and go at it with the old time vigor of theoarly editors. Now I trust that you will accept these remarks in tho snmo spirit in which they aio spent and that you will keep in mind tho fact that 1 know nothing about running a news paper and am simply .Informing you of some of the thoughts which como to me, 11 subscriber. B. J. W. .lust a word in regard, to tho things which our correspondent brings us. There are timos when unj editor feels tho necessity of speaking vlglit out in mooting whon to do so would olfcud the sensibilities of innocent people in no wise responsible for the action tnken by tho liend of tho house. l'ooploln tlioso times seem to tako more of a property interest in tlioir family papor and are prone to take n back handed slnp at the editor when ever liu trios to handle them without gloves. However we thank you for your interest shown and will bear tho suggestion In mind. Perhaps as we grow older wo may bo able to measure up to tho standard which you hold up to us. It is what they get here for their money that brings our customers back the second time ITS QUALITY THAT MAKES SATISFACTORY PRGtfAflDlSE AND IT IS THE satisfaction that women get from the garments and other goods that make this, Red Cloud's leading Dry Goods store.
