T4IIDAY, JULY 2 1912: 4 impOsiTIpN ..\ Yes, that is what we have for the young man or woman. who wishes to succeed in life and is willing to work for it. Nothing short of hard work, self denial and. everlasting perseverance can bring success. Hre is an illustra- tion to the point: 111 . 1902 when we we attending a Nebiriska - college, - a young man 26 years old -a cowpuncher from Wist- ern Nebraska ---entered the preparatory denartment of the institution. He had not fully completed the common school branches. But even at his age he was not in the least discouraged. He told us that he was going to take the three years of -preparatory work and complete the four years of college work after that. We very much doubted whether o young man 26 years of age, who had always lived the free life of the range, and who had but little means, would be able to reverse the habits of his life so completely and stick out such a long, hard proposition. Thad Spencer's first year was indeed a hard one for him. It was almost torture to be confined within doors. He would get sleepy and his arms and legs would ache. Besides this it was hard for him to master his lessons.. He could hardly hold his own at first with boys and girls of 15 or 16. Discour- aged, homesick for his former life with its pleasure and freedom, hard up finan- cially, Spencer was more than once on the point of giving up. He often came to our room and we gave him all the encouragement we could, as did other friends who realized the big fight he was making. Thus he struggled through that first nine months -just one -seventh of the whole distance. However, he made a good start. He learned to apply himself. His mature, clear mind soon asserted itself and he forged ahead of his classmates in some things. He had made many friends .and ways of earning his board and other expenses were easily discovered. With the earuings of a busy vaca- tion he entered upon the second of his seven years. A man of unusual phys- ical strength, he won a place on the football team in the fall and one on the track ktam in the spring. This year he began to develop oratorical powers and before he graduated won an important place in the inter -colle- giate contests. He graduated with honor in 1909 and he is now superin- tendent of schools in an important Ne- braska city. He is a self-made man. He is assured of a good salary and a growing field of usefulness. Two other men of his class, farmer boys, were late in securing their education. One of them is head of the commer- cial department of the Spearfish, S. D., Normal; the other is professor of Eng- lish in the college from which he graduated.. Conditions are changing with un- precedented rapidity in this new coun- try of ours. The young person who failr to acquire at least a common school education is going to be at a great disadvantage. Men are today suffering largely because of ignorance and the wasting of time and money. They blame it to political and indus- trial conditions. They -refuse to realize or admit that it is their fault because they refused to fit themselves to take advantage of the splendid opportuni- ties which are open to every thought- ful, energetic young person. We have boundless faith in the pos- sibilities of any young person who will get dead in earnest over making the best of himself and conditions. To such a person we shall be able to offer some- thitig definite and worth while in next week' i issue of the Times, namely, the details of the \Proposition\ we alluded to at the beginning of this editorial.

Time Limit Passed No Special Session Insufficient Number of State Sena- tors Pledge .Votes for Direct Primary Bill Helena, July 20, -There will be no extra session of the Montana state legislature this year, Governor Norris today announced that the time limit set by him for calling an extra meet- ing of the assembly for the purpose of enacting the direct primary bill drafted by the commission which he appoint- ed had expired, with only 12 of the 14 pledges required from senators receit'ed. Several months ago Governor Nor- ris answered a request made by mem- bers of the state progressive republican league in a letter to Senator Everett saying that he would call a special session on or before July 20, providing that written pledges were received from 14 senators that they would support the bill prepared by the primary com- mission. In May, 1911, the governor ap- pointed Senators Stout, N1cCone and Everett and Representatives Law, Kirshwing and Tolman, all advocates Fif primary legislation. as members of a direct primary commission, with a re- quest that they draft a bill which, in its judgment, would most nearly con- form to the opinions of a majority of the members of the senate and house. A hill modeled closely upon the Ore- gon system was agreed upon and print- ed copies mailed to each member of the assembly. Governor Norris then announced that upon the receipt of written prom- ises from a majority of both houses he would call an extra session before July 20. The pledges were Obtained from a majority of the members of the house and 12 of the necessary 14 members of the senate, the lieutenant governor having a vote in event of a tie. Finding the • I.
