Little personal differences should be binied in a common and united effort for the good of the community. Our pleasures are few and there otijihl lo be, on the pari of those residing here, an endeavor to keep them preserved, if possible adding to and suggesting others. In doing such each and all rise- above petty things and littleness aud become men in the broad true, sense, worthy citizens. Occupied with business during business hours, and pleasureable pursuits during kour leisure hours, the lime passes, and the otherwise long and dreary winter is over before realized. ' This is as it should be. On the other hand, dissension creeps in. Little differences of opinion grow into dislikes. Cliques are formed and all possible chances of harmony are destroyed. ,Where- ever one goes is heard the sound of the 'hammer.' Knock ! Knock ! Knock! Shakespeare says: "'Tis true, 'tis pity, an' pity 'lis 'tis .true." To what can we attribute this?. Let us cogitate. Let us think. In time wc come to this'conclusion:��� It can only be the results of the "knocker." Webster and other authorities have not as yet added the word to their vocabulary. At the same time everyone knows what a "knocker" is. He goes about, not like a roaring- lion, but like a braying jackass, seeking whom he may "knock." Nothing is good, nothing is right. He will sit in an arm chair, or perchance stand before the bar in easy and graceful altitude. As long as he has a listener he will talk. His jingle is but the excresence of a festering mind. He tells how mighty he is in speech and deed. He carries tales, most of them the offsprings of his own distorted imagination. This specimen is the worst kind ol a ."knocker." There are several kinds. Number two stands in his place of business and tells how much superior his establish- 'incut is to any other. Tn fact he wouldn't take the other man's "dump" as a gift, and he cannot understand how the poof devil makes a living. Number three .sloes not say much.. He is the sly and slick "knocker." He draws attention to things with a sagacious nod of head. When listening to a tale from another "knocker" he winks and thinks he is looking wise, or he shrugs his shoulders ed to mean���"well, what did I tell you." ' Now, for the sake of the district,, our interests in it, and our dignity as men, let this "knocking" be a thing of the past. Ding it! clang jt! dum.it! quit it! So long as the other chap is attending lo his own business, keep busy with your own.. Quoteing somebody wise we say:���A man should be judged by his charity and industry; your liberty ends where his begins and his ends where yours begins. This article is a "knock" aud a hard one, but it is good medicine for those who need it. A newspaper-should, be assort of guardian of the rights of all citizens. Good citizens need no touching up, the others? well���"a word to the wise is sufficient." . of ' Following is a beautiful piece satire, written 'down to date.'
