NO NEW THING
It is no now for The Herald to favor the submission of pub
lic questions to a vote of the people for settlement. Persons who have
read this paper many years are familiar with its Iouk and constant ad
vocacy of the rule of the people. There has never been a time when
wc did not favor lcttiiiff the people rule. We wish to ask, without
reference to any one issue but including all questions affecting the
public welfare, who has a right to ride, the people as a whole or a
small portion of them who make polities a business? Whether the de
cision suits us or not, we believe that, so far as practicable, every
question of public polity ought to be decided by public vote, after am
ple time and opportunity have been given for deliberate consideration
and investigation.
COMPARATIVE FOOD VALUES
The II. C. L. (High Cost of Living) has stimulated investigation
by scientists of the nutritive value of various kinds of food. A tii
state milk commission was appointed from Pennsylvania, Maryland
and Delaware with a view to standardizing the production and sale of
milk. In making their report the commission discussed exhaustively
the food value of milk. It was found that a quart of milk contains as
much nutriment as eight eggs. At the current price of nine cents per
quart for milk and forty-live cents per dozen lor eggs, the latter arc
more than three times as expensive as the former. A quart of milk,
according to the report of the commission, contains approximately
the same amount of nutriment as eleven and two-fifths ounces of
round steak-
FAIR-MINDED EDITORS
There is a strong public demand that editors and reporters be
fair, and most newspaper men are disposed to be fair-minded. The
"pencil pusher" who permits narrowness to creep into what he writes
stands low in public estimation.
The (jordon .Journal is one of the fairest us well as one of the
newsiest, exehaouges that comes to The Herald oflico. This being the
case, the following clippings from that paper are doubly appreciated.
The Journal is a strong, but not narrow, republican paper. Kegard
ing the democratic state representative from the 73rd district, com
posed of Hox liutte and Sheridan counties, it says:
Representat Ivo Thomas of this district is one of a committee
of five appointed to draft a prohibitory law for the Btate. This Is
one of tlit'inoHt Important committers for this session and his con
stituents will watch his labors with much interest.
I.loyd Thomas, representative from this district, -was made
chairman of the committee on constitutional amendments, as well
as milking member on the committee of committees. Lloyd's ac
quaintance throughout the slate with democratic politicians re
llects crc(!i to Hox Butte and Sheridan counties.
Representative Thomas has introduced a bill into the legis
lature to exclude newspaper advertising fro.n the expense bill of
a candidate for olllce. This bill should become a law, us in many
; cases the amount of money spent in a cHinpuin pi events the can
didate from spending any amount of money with the newspapers.

by months or tne r&inrau in Alliance for tne year I9ie. This summary
shows a total for 1916 of 13.83 inches and a total snowfall of 47 Inches.
With two months missing the total rainfall for the year previous was 25.41
ruches, the two months missing being March and September. The total av
erage rainfall In Alliance for 9 years from 1906 to and Including 1915 was
16.40 Inches.
Just Consider Farts
At first glance some might lift their hands in horror at the statement
that the rainfall in Alliance for 1916 was but a little more than half of the
rainfall during th previous year, but It was but 2.57 Inches less than the
average for the past 19 years.
Crops ami I tain
Never more will It be necessary for a resident of Box Dutte county to
sidestep the fact that the rainfall here 1b less In Inches than ln other parts
of the country. Ner before were the people of this section more prosper
ous. Consider that In spite of the fact that the total rainfall In 1916 was
but 13.83 Inches that Box Butte county produced, according to Bulletin No.
210 Issued by the Nebraska State Board of Agriculture, 113,729 bushels of
spring and winter wheat worth at a conservative figure $1.20 a bushel, or a
total of $136,475: 247,222 bushels of oats worth $86,528; 56.864 bushels
of rye worth $50,728; 36,960 bushels of barley worth $22,176; 6,000 tons
of alfalfa worth $42,000; 4,576 tons of wild hay worth $27,402; better than
800.000 bushels of potatoes worth at $1 a bushel $800,000, or at $1.50 a
bushel the price potatoes are now selling for $1,200,000; 267,672 bush
els of com worth at 60 cents a bushel, $160,603. The total value of the
corn, wheat, oats, rye, barley, alfalfa, wild hay and potato crops of Box
Butte county for 11)16 was between one and three-quarters millions of dol
lars and two millions of dollars. Rain or no rain, Box Butte county raises
the crops without irrigation and the farmers ride ln automobiles and haul
their stuff ln auto trucks.
As to Figure
The following tables for Ilemlngford and Alliance are taken from Bul
let'n No. 215 of thu Nebraska State Board of Agriculture and may be found
on pages 169 and 182 of that publication. The figures for 1916 as pertain

etc. The following information regarding tSt . Agues Academy is tak
en from the Viar Hook :

The departments include primary, preparatory, academic, music,
art. The classical course in the academic department covers loui
years' work. The normal course, which may be pursued in the junior
and senior Veais. otters students an opportunity to prepare for pass
ing examination in the branches required for a first-grade certificate
in Nebraska. Students completing this course will receive a second-d-rdi
c rtilicatc. and. at the completion of one year's successful
leaching, a liist-grade county certificate will be issued them without
further examination. The commercial course eofers a period of two
ears. Students who have completed the high school can complete
this course in one year. The course includes shorthand, typewriting,
business English, bookkeeping, office training, penmanship and spelling-
The enrollment to date for the year 1916-17 is 222. There are 142
day pupils and 80 boarders, coming from other points in Nebraska,
South Dakota, Wyomiug, Montaua, Colorado and Canada.

new. modern hotel in Alliance of a
size and btyle larue enough to take
care of the needs of a growing city is
generally conceded. First-class
rooms are more or less at a premium.
Almost every day visitors are turned
viiy from ilie hading hotels and
are compelled to seek lodging else
where. Alliance always works un
der a handicap when it becomes nec
essary to entertain a large convention.
A Convention City
This city is fast becoming recog
nized as the convention city for west
ern Nebraska. hen Alliance was
the scene of the state convention of
county clerks, commissioners and)
supervisors, it was necessary to pro
vide rooms for many ln attendance
at private homes. Recently the dis
trict convention of the Odd Fellows
and Rebekahs was held here. On
February 14, the dentists of north
western Nebraska and southern Da
kota will meet In this city to form a
branch of the Nebraska State Dental
society. The state convention of the
Knights of Columbus Is to be held
in Alliance this spring. Hotel facil
ities will be taxed when the Stock
men's Reunion Is held here. Fair
time will bring another influx from
the outside. The need for ample fa
cilities to care for visitors Is most ap
parent and as it looks at present, this
situation Is to be relieved with the
erection of a new hotel soon.
