We have planted, but others will reap, we have laid the foundation founda-tion for all sorts of industries, but while we use our strength, energy and intellects, to fight each other, outside men, too big for such trifling, trif-ling, will step in and take the rich results re-sults of the toil and deprivations of our pioneers. while wasting everything in personal per-sonal malice, and small revenges, we might grasp the flood tide of opportunity oppor-tunity that has reached our county and firmly establish ourselves on a foundation that could not be shaken. |
