Will History Repeat The student of hi.-Uory may find in the French Revolution the o.\act counterpart of present con ditions in Russia. In that day the populnnce became frenxied. uneasy bec'iuse of the years of oppression , and forming in mobs went about the streets committ ing murder and rapine. In an effort to < | uiet the people f ouis made concession after concession but to no avail. The years of tvrnnny had been many and loiitf and the French government was out of harmony with the age. It w.is time for it to fall. The O.ar has likewise recognixed a condition too late and his attempts at reconciliation an- proving abortive. The Russian govern ment is likewise out of harmony with the age , and if history is to repeat itself it will fall. At this distance no leader appears for the revolutionist , in the vast many headed mob that carries the red Hag about the streets no Marabcau appears , but The Al mighty may be trusted to pro duce the man when the hour strikes. The world is growing bettter as the years pass ; there is no room in the twentieth cen tury for Russia as she is. consequently quently her unspeakable govern ment must pass away. That its passing shall be by the red hand of revolution is but the repetition of history. Human liberty has never been purchased by any price other than human blood. H is worth the price. Every farmer should have his name and address printed on hi * stationery. The post office de partment recommends it as the safe thing to do , and that it is good business every one concedes. The Tribune is prepared to do this work for you in the shortest time and for the least money possible for good work. All men are selfish but some are so inordinately so that they feel aggrieved when others refuse to stand against their own inter est. Self protection is an ele mental law. If 1 fail to protect my own no other will do so for me. A man should be permitted to have an opinion with regard to the town's welfare without in curring the abuse of any man. In this day of mans independence it is not alone a right , it is also a dutv that every one do his o wn thinking and act accordingly. That men are doing this is ap parent from the telephone diffi culty. The dav of the slave driver is gone by , and the day when arrogant wealth can bull- do ' men into acting contrary to their best interest and their sense of right is not yet due , and we hope will never arrive. The holiday season approaches. The time of year when gift mak ing is at once a pleasure and duty is upon us. The merchant * of Falls City are laying in large stocks of holiday goods in the hopes of attracting large custom If you have anything to say to nearly two thousand of Richard son County people , the Tribune can furnish the medium , Gifts for the loved ones are selectee about the fireside at home. Fron Johnny's drum to fathers easj chair Christmas tokens are select ed by the home circle.Ve would like to be the merchant's bureau of publicity this season. We would accept the position of traveling salesman and go over every rural route in Richardson county telling your story if you will but say the word. Tonight this paper will be read by several thousand persons in this county. They , or many of them at least would doubtless pay you a visit tomorrow if you would make an inviting proposition to them. In the death m Judg. ' Tlabrook the state lost the onh distrat judge who absolute ! ) refused free transportation as the hands of the railroads. The free pass is a menace wherever you find it , but it is especially so in the hands of the judiciarv. What an advertistiser wants is results. To get results he must use the best advertising medium. The best advertising medium is the one which reaches the largest number of readers. The Tribune will prove to your satisfaction that it is most wide ly read paper in Richardson County or receipt your bill. Think it over. The Journal says that person alities ruined all that might have been accomplished by the Com mercial club in settling the tele phone trouble. Something cer tainly ruined , what the Journal thinks should have been accom plished. And then the Journal is always so vexed and put out when personalities are indulged. The railroad bureau of pub licity is no more , It is said that the railroad interest have expend ed two million dollars in an ef fort to shape public sentiment antagonistic to the President's railroad rate policy. Their ef forts have met with complete failure. The people are awaken ed to their own interest and are not to be deceived by ready made editorials. Nearly a hundred dollars was raised in Falls City to aid the Russian Jews. This spoke well for the charitable people of the town. Why not raise a like sum for the poor of our own city ? A great deal of suffering could thereby be relieved. A hundred ollars will buy a great many ons of coal , a large number of eaves of bread and many warm garments to shield little bodies rom the winters cold. Certain members of the local elephone company t a k e the iction of the commercial club in recommending the admission of he rural companies to be a per sonal attack on them and their nstitution. Certainly nothing . ) f the kind was intended. The club acted upon a business pro position in a purely business way. To keep the muluals out world result in great loss to every mer chant in Falls City , to prevent his and solely in the interest of heir own affairs , practically every merchant in Falls City avers the admission of the mut- lal companies , The abuse which las been heaped upon those who aver the outside companies is : ertainly unwarranted and is creating a great deal of unfavor able comment concerning the nan who has so evidently lost lis temper. Don't get cross John here are others you know , and while we are willing to be gener- > us. you can hardly expect the the entire business interest of the ; own to suffer in order that your nonopoly in the streets of Falls 2ity may be perpetuated.

SUGGESTIVE HiNTS BY THE FALLS CITY STATE BANK Help sourself and helpers will be plentiful. Ilconoim is the poor man's mint. Most people have money to burn but the wise o les don't burn it. t f Saving is a greater art than gaining. "Get" is a good servant but "keep" is a better one Me will always be a slave Who knows not how to earn and save. Thrift is the philosopher's stone that changes base metal into gold. A dollar in the bank does you more good than a hundred spent. Of all glad words of pen or tongue The gladdest are these , "I saved when young. " No matter how trifling they may > ecm , do not neglect to deposit your spare earnings.
