The voters on election day uloarly
demonstrated that they wore not ready
to turn over tho ship of state to an ex

We trust that interest in the water
problem will again teach fever heat
now that wo have disposed of the
election. Ued Cloud cannot afford to
longer delay providing plenty of good
pute water for the inhabitants of this
city. The city council will soon have
u competent engineer to chock up the
statements of our local otliceisaud as
Boon as that is done we favor action at
once. The council feels that it has
the support of the city but it will do
! harm to remind them occasionally

the hot weather will be upon us and

water Is an intnluahlc iicipiisiou to
any city and we cannot in justice out

We would like to whisper into the
ear of every young man in this emit'
inanity to slum the gambling room.
Shall we sketch the histoi. of tho
gambler'.1 Lured by bad company ho

est, men ought never to go. Ho .sits
down to his llr.st srauu, but only for
pastime and desire of being ihrought
sociable, t'he phi join deal out the
cards. They tinconsoiously play into
SntuuV hand's who takes all the tricks
and both the players' soul for trumps
- ho being a sharper at the name. A
sllL'ht stake is nut uti lust to add In
terest to the play, lianie after game
is played. Linger stakes and still
larger. They becin to move nervous
lv on thelrchalrs. Their btows lower
and eyes Hash until now they who win
and they who lose, tiled alike with
passion, sit with set jaws and com
pressed lips and clinched lists and
eyes like lite hulls that seem stinting
from their sockets, to see the final tutu
before It conies; if losing, pale with
envy and tiomttlous with nuuttered
oath's east back ted hot upon the
llt'ai t , or w lulling, with hystei 1c laugh.
While gambling in itself is bad enough
it is the stepping stone to all other
vices and e Us which inlliet mankind.
