KIEL COMMERCIAL
CLUB MEETING.
Saturday evening was held an-
other eiilhiia-tio meeting of the
cumin rciul club.
A discussion was had of the pre-
pared constitution and bylaws as
recommended by the committee. On
account of tin! absence of many
farmers who desired to lie pr> eiit
at the adoption of the constitution
final action was posponed until ' ext
Saturday evening. Those ol you
w ho are apt to stand back and criti
cise because things do not move
your way or as you would desire
them come out and pull your way.
We think all are desirous that this
orniuiz ition should accomplish the
highest good lor this community*
We may each have different ideas as
to what ought to be done but if you
do not come out and express jour-
sell and use the power aid influence
you may have your idea though a
pearl w ill be lie hidden and of no
avail to anyone. Bccause we have
.inade good |p|'ogross and develop-
ment in the past lei Us not now be
less augivssive in further progress
than the early settler was to retain
this prairie. There must be a feel-
ing of pride ti«*"J!s early settler as
to the present t.djsperous conditions
of this coniiiiuimjVuid to the im-
provement found everywhere around
us. Il lakes a bold heart anil an
aggressive nature to launch out for
tile accomplishment of ail enterprise
or the reclining of prairie laod. To
every anibitous man there is intense
satisfaction m the conditions under
which he lives and labors.
Such a one is not content to set
back and wait lor others to move
or star', and see liotv such movements
will end but with energy he gets
into the game to see that every thing
moved right. The richest advanta
ges and oppertunities of individuals
an J communities alike arelost by the
failure of a proper appreciations of
them w hen they are within our grasp,
the play of waiting and waiting is
a slow game that all can play but we
are thavklul all do not. There are
rich possibilities here for us now
our best expectations can be realized
but we must organize, be on the
alert that some of the best oppor-
tunities tor a railway and other
improvements do not escape us.
We must be ready for the propo-
sitions or openings that may be a-
vailable for us and lake Iheni at the
tide flow. There are always those
who are willing to follow al ter and
share in the profits and labors of
others; many willing to receive the
harvest but less who are willing to
work and gather. If one were to
forecast as to the future of this lo-
cality he would find no more or bet
ter barometer indieatint; prosperity
and progress than in the orginiza-
tion of the Kiel Commercial club,
supported by the best representative
farmers in this vicinity.
Organizations is the necessity of
the tunes whether it be for a corpo-
ration, villia«eor community; for if
any of these are to prosper and | ro
gress, or by other than a latent farce,
there must be aggressive organiza-
tion.
As we look into the future and
sometimes inquire within ourselyes
what there is in store for us here;
or as the farmer questions himself
to how long he must continue to
pull his grain through the heavy sand
to market; or how long lie will be
outof immediate touch with the j
live stock market: yes when such
thoughts or questions comes to us
let us not forget that the world or j
conditions with us are to a great ex-
tent what we make or permit them
to be.
Question ourselves a little further,
what is each of us doing? What are!
we willing to do to better our fann-
ing conditions? A commercial j
club is necessary to a progressive
fits but it is no less necessary in a
rural community as this where there
is so much to accomplish.
The commercial club incurs no
financial responsibility and outside
of membership fees all it needs is
your leeal undivided support to
make tins organization a power for
industrial progress, A central force
to brii g us into closer social rela-
tions as we work for a common
good,
What we need lu re is to. , to-
gitlnr and woik lor ourse, e8 by
our endevors for the common good
of all. It is easy for us to be too
selfish a-id grasping for our own
individual good, lie who seeks to
acquire for himself without contrib-
uting of his acquisitions to the com-
munity at large is naught but a
dwarf on society. One sometimes
wonders w hy tin re are so many of
this class of people in every commu-
nity, but it can only beexplained m
the laws of nature.
There is no reason why with the
propper support we can not have a
club room here in town, where there
will be the best and latest of litera-
ture for farmer to impreye his spare
time i" town, w here he can take his
friends to talk business with him.
This would also be a central place
for farmers to Bieet each other on
business or where deals could be
listed and general information ob-
tained.
There is a world of benefits to be
obtained from this organization that
after we are well started we will a'l
wonder why we weie not organized
sooner. 1)ukb.

dinner, and 1 suppose before this
time your son has entered the luiu-
istory. — Dixon Tribune.
