" " ' ' . _ _ r- . . - ' . , . _ . _ . : - : : \ 'rhe Nebraska farmer is a gam- bler. I1 has to be for he is up against a difiicult 1Jroposition. , He stakes his time , IllS property , his future , prosperi ty and his wife an children against all the I chances of nature. In the spring of the year he prepares for the great game of chance. SOUlC years rains and 1100ds prevent him from getting onto thc fields I as carly as he should. 'l'his yeM I I it was the unusl1al cold weather I that delaycd planting and pre- vcnted germination for long : time after the sccd' was in the ground. After thc planting is I done the farmer has to talC a chance against the weeds beating I his crop. Whcn the grain gets . , ' ahead of the weeds he is on the , j I' books for a time as to whether I the rust , the green bugs , the . t I cinch bugs , the weevil , the grasshoppers - hoppers or suudry other enemics , to the crops wiH'not destroy his I prospects. With these dangers I safely over the farmer then has to fear the storm clement ! ) , the I most dreaded being haH , which J will , in a fcw minutes , destroy ' 'the work of months and the very grandest of prospects for years. I' The danger of hail , heavy rainfalls - falls and terrible winds that will , lodge the grain and make a profitable - , able harvest impossible , is ever . present. But , after all , the Ne- braska farmer is a , brave man. I I Disast rs affect him lightly. If . he falls down this year he starts in next season with hopes highel than cver , feeling certain of suc. cess and knowing that the I clement of luck is not always I against him. lIe feels certain 01 I" an even break-and that's about , II all he asks. 'l'he average Ne. q braskan wants no odds in hh j I . favor. He i.s willing to take hH 'I chances agamst nature and the . \ clements , for he knows if the luc : _ of the game turns in his favor he "i bas the possibility of cleaning 'I ' up a snug sum in one good year , ' 11)/ ) / \ There is a growing sentimeni j I against jury trials. This method , ! ) / of procedure was all right in th ( : early history of jurisprudene : II I ; when judges were the mere tool of.the. that b . Whet ! ! of. the. powers Ip fair tnals before judges wer ( i impossible the jury system was" 1'1 ' great safe guard. In early day : j a man was really tried by hi : ' \ 1 peers and stood some show. Unde t ( the present system of the trial 0 cases the lawyers make the etIor ' ! rl , t to get men on the jury who hav ; 1 : not heard or expressed an opinioi tj ' . of . the case. .In .these days 0 Ii" ! qUick commuUlcatlon and of th i ! daily paplrs few intelligent me ! \ have not heard of cases of im \ ' 1 'I ' portance. This limits the jurol " . ! to the less enlightened classmen - . men not capable of rendering th : best verdicts. There is a grO\1 i g disposition to wah'e jUt trials. Most men would rat11 ( I entrust their case to an hone judge. Some states have a cou systein of three judges at agreements reached by two . the three are binding. 'l'his e pcdites , business and insur fairer verdicts. The jury syste might be profitably retaine however , as a checlt on t judiciary , but for general p\ poses it abolition would bc 'good thing. . In a state where live stock c . e so successfully raised a 'Where f od stuff for them gre so luxunantly , It seems al111 < criminal th t _ the packing a -creamery 1I1dustries are [ pushed more successfully-th \ \ IS done in Nebraska. . The trust barons are said be praying for another war sc ; to divert attention from th misdeeds. They are the sa job lot who were responsible the jingo talk about the Uni1 States and Japan war. , . . ' . ' b ' . . ' . . . . _ U _ ' _ - - - - - It is human nnture to slop over , ut rarely has there been a more notable case than the pamphlet issued by the Standard Oil com- II pany. It would be natural to believe - lieve t1ut with the high-priced I legal advisers of that institution the organi ation wou1d be better ! protccted against its own - nesses. 'l'he mcn in weak-I pear to have lost their heads and have done a h'stericat , stunt that I wi1l act like the hoomeran . I 'l'heir sale ( 'hjectto discredit the national administration-has fai1ed. 1l docs not occur to the managers that the very fact that the administration has made the Standard come to timc is what strengthens the federal officials with the public. For so many years this great monopoly has so entirely overrid en the law , public - lic opinion and common decency that the long suffering public is rejoicing because the oily combination - nation has. ' at least found a master. Much maudlin sympathy is wasted 011 mcn who go wrong in I business and commercial life. 'l'he bank castner who is short thousands of dollars and causes the wrcck of the institution with the attendant loss to many I widowed and orphancd depositors alwa's , has an abutlliance of sympathy. He is longlon excuses and usually blames a womec for his misfortune. Il's the same old story since Adam did the shamcless act iu his effort to hang on to the good things in the Garden of Eden-instead of getting out and hustling' for a living. He lost out-and all his imitators deserve the same fate. For a man who c1a 1 1ed to lcnow nothing about the Standard Oil company-of which he is president-John D. Reckefeller IS doing a lot of talk about. how the country is headed for a panic : -and things like that. . - - - - - - - - With thirtycight counties abso- utely dry and five partially so it IS evident the tem1Jerance , move- 111ent in Missoun has gained quite a foothold , but the grip of democracy doesn't loosen accord- ingly. Resolutions. \Ve , the republicans of Wester- vil1e , in primarv assembled , take , this time to a"gain dec1are our faith and belief in the great principles of the republican party. We endorse our president and governor in their fight for "A Square Deal. " We praise the last legislature in its work done in the interest of reform , in their railroad legislation and the work done in the interest of temper- ; ance. We demand the passage of a local opbon law by the next legislature. We ask for a law making the place of delivery of cigarettes the place of sale. A. SHAl > nH , Chairman. DON Ho. LnnCH , Sec'ty.

Interest in the nomluation of candidates to be voted for in Novcmbcr by the new method- the primary baJlot-did not enthuse - thuse cither the candidates or the politicians as did the old time caucus and county convention , and the vote at cach of the several - eral p01ling placcs in the county was , as ncar as can be judged from returns received up o this timc , ( Thursday morning ) . not ncarly half the votes at a general election. 'l'he primary docs not find favor with the fellows who have been in the habit of "mixing" and , putting up a ticket to suit themselves - selves , yet they admit that it is a "square deal" and with some brushing up or remodeling , is a pretty good method in making nomiuations. At this writing it is impossible to give anywhere near ( he correct - rect vote , nor will it be possible until after thellcanvasing board has completed its work tomorrow. However , from the statements of those who have brought in rc. turns it ig known that Horace Kennedy has received the republican - lican nomination for sheriff and C. U. Richardson the pooulist nomination. It is stated. that Kcnnedy had a majority in all the precincts except Loup , Wood River and Westerville. Fer supervisor in district , No. 2 , R. B , . Welch , the present in. cumbent , received the republicar nomination and James Lee tht democratic nomination. For supervis.or in district No. . b , Herbert Mever won out ovel his adversary on the republicar side and G. W. Headley was nom' inated by the democrats. Indications are that Dr. Mor' row , republican , bas received th ( nomination for coroner witb n < democrat or populist opponenl for election in November. Ryno Rumblings.
