MALE l'UllI.ISIIKII THIS ONLY DKMOl'ltATIC I'Al'KIl WKIIHTKIt COUNTY IN Tliu Philadelphia Uotiill Druggists Association voted, recently, unuuim ously that nunc of its members shall see any of tho doped soothing ulrup.s or habit forming patent medicines except upon Hie order of a physician. It would bo uti excellent thing If Ne braska druggists would emulate this example. The Hod Cloud papers mty the gate receipts ut thnt plncc exceed tho re ceipts at Hastings. If that In so the figures show it and Hcd Cloud In to bo congratulated, it is admitted that they hnvo a bunch of ball playerH mid like Hastings, they have about as much bnd luck as there wan to be had. But there will bo another season. Adams County Democrat. One tiling is certain the primary law is bound to be modified this winter. Most of the peoplo of Xebraskit are disatistled with a condition which allows any one to participate in the nomination of candidates not of his own party. Wo bcliovo tho primary principal is tho best we have had but tho present law has not yet reached perfection by any means. A careful examination of tho work of tho Antl saloon Loaguo reveals the fact that it is either willfully playing with the people in order that the of llccrs may continue to draw their salaries or else it knowsso littlonbout playing the game of politics that nine tonthsofitbactscaubu labeled blund ers. Of what use is itto collect a large amount of money, perfect an organiz ation. Wc are confident that an out and out campaign for state wide pro hibition would bo far more elective than county option which isconfessed ly but n stop toward prohibition why not make the issue light it out and end tho agony. If this reform carries either tho Antl Saloon Loague must change its methods or else surrender tho leader ship. It Is gratifying to note that tho demo cratic vote in tho primaries Is .steadily increasing. For instaueo in l'u3 tho total vote wns 822 at which time the democratic vote was 103. In PJ09 the total vote was 1)1.13 and Undemocratic voto was '2211. This year tho total vote was 1011 and the democratic vote was .'li.'l. It cannot be said that this year's voto in thiscounty was onllueiieed to any extent by republiuns bceauo Dalilnmn's vote was only HO. There publican voto was about 100 less than last year while the socialists gained 15. Their vote for the past two yeais was two ami this year 17. Tho stay at home vote was tho largest of .ill which shows that ii majority of u.s prefei to keep still and lot the other fellow run our all'alrs. A won! of caution to automobilists. Wu have no reference to those who obey tho law and who show every courtosy possible. Our remarks arc ad dressed to those who are so thoughtless as to let their own pleasures interfere with tho rights of others. We notten that autos run after dark without their lights This Is dangerous. We met one tho other night just, after dusk without lights which kept tho road und made no effort to (rive us even an inch. Tito man with a team has just as much tight to the road as the one with an auto. Some owners or drivers of automobiles seem to bulievo that they are the lords of creation and have the right of way everywhere. We bo llevo that anyone who willfully violates tho laws of Nebraska and who jepard izos the safety of othors bhould receive the full penalty of tho law. After writing a lettor to Mr. Hitch cook congratulating him on his noni- inaiion, Kiciinm u. niotcalio gave out tho following statement: 'I can surely bing, 'There is Sun shlno in My Send Today,' for all that 1 rememberof tliocampaign, so far as my own contest is concerned, is the good will expressed by thousands of men and women, most of whom 1 had uevor met, and the kindness shown mo by the newspapers of the siuto, repub ucuii aim noinoorai unite. i ueileve there was never a candidate for olllro thatrecoived such generous attention by newspapers of all purtiesns I receiv ed ut tho hands of Nebraska editors The newspaper men will never know what is in my heart to bay to them. If I should try to speak it my volco would break. If I should try to write It my pen would falter. All I can do Is to say "thank you;' and this comes from the depths of my hourt so fall of gratitude for high favors, so full of faith renowed in thn loving kindness of men that there is no ni.niii'ur -tings or vain regrets." Tho candidate that lost can now 1 1 bioke-nnplusniitlyaiid watch thoothers light it out. OiivI.hhI' only those who won at the primary are feeling good. The losers must bo content to bid their time, ISryan and Roosevelt have both beon turned down litnl we oiler that as con solation to those who ran tip against the machines. No town, country or community will over prosper whoro there is a division of strife of nny natuio In helping others you invariable help yourself. "Opposition Is the life of tralo," and merit wins. No town will prosper ami grow where a lack of cnterpriso and push on tho part of its citizens aro felt. Tho true motto of each and ovary citizen of a town is and should be to assist and help your neighbors, encourages business of all ki lids there's no danger in gorging the market in tills line unite In the matter of improvement in making tlte town attractive and giving it a homo like appearance. When this is done people from a distance will form a good opinion of the plaao and it will be nn inducement for them to locate with us and become permanent and substantial citizens. G. J. Warren has completely changed the inside of the Tepee theatre, has placed the chairs together making two isles along the sides and has put in an inclined lloor. Those seated be hind can now sec as well as those in front owing to the chairs being high er. Heis alsoinstalliug nowoquipment and issparjng no pains to make his attractions Hist class in every respect. Heeliaiaeteristically says that tlieio is nothing too good for bjs.customers. When he is thru there' ivlll be no better establishment, of the kind in the state. We congratulate him upon liis "progressiveiics" and bespeak a more liberal patronage even than he mis Had In the past. There is one feature of the films which Mr. Warren selects that particularly appeals to us and that is that they always por tray something of usefulness. One can learn and enjoy.

There is but one way out of poverty for the generality of mankind, and that l downright hard work, economy and self-denial. Young man, draw your coal, roll up your sleeves and wade in. 1 his everlastingly waiting for some. thing to turn up wultiiiirto sten into dead men's shoes, will terminate your career as a morogrovoling.dopendent, subsisting and existing and filling spaco without a real or singlo purpose in life. Wake up! stir around and send the lifo blood coursing through your veins.
