A very suggestive thought came to
mo the other day ai I waa leavliiK
town. In fact, J tint outside the city
llmlta, there waa an nldnrlv man drlv.
Inn old liohbln to tho bunny and
keeping In the middle of the road,
utterly oblvloua of Iho youtiK man In
an automobile who win trvlng to pana.
Hut the old man kept hugging the
center of tlm roud In aplto of the
honkltiK horn.
It aeenia odd that the men who op
ened the way with dauntless courage,
who made tho flrat trulla and road to
i and beyond tho oiUP'mis of clvllfza-
i Hon should ao many of them a'nnd In
the way of progress. The aamo one
hnvliiK atliilned their competency
! their Indifference to public needa la
wanton. Their money la Invested and
j bringing them good Internal, and
when they ahould he striving to bet
ter condition and the surroundings
of othera In thla world which ban
been ao good to them, they limply
alund In the way by refusing their
kid to proxreaa and development.
The advancement of many com
mu ii It lea la now being held back by
that Indifference.
It often occurathat men and flrmi
who rannot afford It are called upon
to further a public good while the
mun with wealth ilta by and walti.
A ureal many of the older business
towm of the weat are now facing the
lame problem and the healtancy of
thoae who no longer depend on the
channola of Induatry to meet their
enda, and In mun,y Inatancei it he
oomea necessary for thla wealth to
paaa Into other and younger iiamla
before communities possessing It are
benefitted In a public way.
Let ua hope Prlnevllle may not he
come one of thoae towna to he re
tarded In development bocauae of
luch a condition.
Congressman Nick Slnnott hai re
quested the Journal to assist him In
making distribution of the vegetable
aeeda allotted to hli district, next
spring.
The department of agriculture haa,
he wrltea ua, allotted to each mem
ber of Congreaa a number of pBck
igei aufflclent to give a package of
aeedi to only one peraon In each eight
or ten In hla district. Thli causes
him to be particularly desirous that
what aeeda he haa available ahould
get Into the hands of thoi eoimtltu
ents who most desire them and can
use them to the beat advantage. He
atatei that he believes thla can be
done better through the papers In hla
