The song of the robin can ana.ni be heard , proclaiming the near approach of spring. The near approach of spring should fill every person with an ambition to do something. What arc 3our plans ? After all , life is about what we make it. Our harvest is largely of our own sowing. Those who sow wild oats reap a worthless harvest. This is an age which believes that laws are made to be enforced- The age is past when men think laws arc to be winked at when the officer thinks it more conven ient not to enforce them. Any law which is not intended to be enforced should not be passed. If it can not be enforced , it should be repealed. Harry Orchard , the famous confessor , will soon be put on trial for the crimes charged against him. After confessing to the committing of so many crimes , it would seem that a trial would surely result ( in his con viction. However , the verdict of an Idaho jury , like many other juries , is difficult to forsec. As the sensational newspapers have failed to stir up a war be tween Japan and the United States , they are now busy pro claiming the certainty of war be tween Japan and China. With out some sensation to spring upon their readers , some of our yellow journals would be hard pressed for material to fill their columns. Col. Bryan knows no sucl thing as favorite sons of othei states. Secretary Taft told hi ; leaders to make no'contcst inNev York against Governor Hughes "It is his state and he is cntitlec to the delegation. " Bryan's lol lowers did not say , "Let Joluiboi have Minnesota. It is his owi state,1' It is all Bryan or r.oth ing. The day of reactionaries ii American politics is past. Th American people have soundci the command to forward march We are moving on to bette things , and the signs are pro pitious for the general welfare The judgment ol the people i sound when the ) ' understand ; question , and they get result when they seek to do so. Richardson County is beinj showered with political honor just now. With Norman Mus sletnan as alternate to the Rcpub lican National Convention a Chicago , John II. Moreheai selected as delegate to the Demo cratic Convention at Denver , am A. J. Weaver as chairman of th Congressional Convention a Lincoln , Kichardson County i coming to the front. Since the recent order of th War department at Washingto that each soldier shall be entitle to "one house-wife , " it woul seem that we may hear of man new enlistments. It isexplainei however , that the house-wife i to consist of a neat little cas containing thread , needle ; buttons , and patches. It seen trom the explanation that tl : boys still have to do their ow patching and sewing on of the buttons. Representative Lilian ! of Kei tucky , one of the four democra who voted for the election < Bradley , a republican , for Unite States Senator from that stat in a speech made in explanatic of his vote , declared that he ha the democratic ticket f < 40 years , but he believed that his vo.tc for Bradley was the best democratic vote he had ever cast. There will be many others who will think that the vote they cast for the republican candidates this fall , and against Mr. Brvan's dictation , is the best vote they ever cast. QUERY FOR THE 8th. GRADE. If it costs $10 to become a Bryan volunteer , and Johnson should be nominated , how long would it take the said volunteers to pay off the national debt with corn at 50c per bushel. Just imagine the roar of a $10 Bryan volunteer in case Johnson is nominated. One Thousand Class for Omaha Sunday , May 31st , 1908 , will be the Kcd better Day of Perfect ed Woodcraft at Omaha , when a class of 1000 candidates will be introduced into the mysteries of the Forest.

Another Correction. In the last issue of the Tribum I corrected an error in the pub lished report of the county board I stated that the report shoul < have read that Mr. Glasscr re ccived $290.05 instead of $415 ( .a published ) for his services dur ing the year 1907. This was tin amount received by him up t < the time the old board scttlec with the county officers , and doe not include a claim of about $61 for services rendered during tin fiscal year of 1907 , and allowei him at the first meeting of tin new board. Some have takci my statement to mean that Mr Glasser received $290.05 for th entire year , hence'this statement J. II. HUTCHINGS , County Clerk. t St. Thomas Church. The services for next week ar as follows : Tuesday night 7:30. Wednesday morning 10:30. : Wednesday night 7:30. : Friday night 7:30. : The subject of the Sunda eyening sermon will be ' 'Temj tation its Meaning.
