mmMmi matter.
Quite naturally, the Nebraska
representatives in congress will
fight to a finish the proposed
decrease of one member of con
gress from this state under the
new apportionment. f
Sinch England began its war
against the Boers she has lost
14,300 men from wounds, fever
and exposure. Sherman sized it
up correctly when he said, ''war
is hcllf"
Tim men who believe in hold
ing wheat for a higher price arc
encouraged by the presence of
the Hessian fly in the entire
wheat growing rctrion cast of the
Rocky mountains and north of
Oklahoma. The fields of winter
wheat arc looking unusually fine,
but the scientists say that the
seeds of the pest have been
thickly sown and that unless
something unforscen occurs the
wheat crop of next year wiil be
greatly reduced. State Journal.
This fusionists will go out of
the state offices leaving a defici
ency of one hundred thousand
dollars existing, which represents
the sum that the present state
administration has expended
above the amount appropriated.
This is just a sample of the
''economy" of which we have
heard so much about for two
years past It fully explodes the
false claims of the popocrats and
is on a par with about all .the
claims that brand of politicians
make.
Dukino the tpast two years the
barbers of the state have contrib
uted about six thousand dollars
to the State Barbers' Board, and
it would be interesting to know
just what benefit the barbers
have received in return for their
contributions. If a single one
has been benefitted we would
like to hear of him. There is no
question,! however, about the
benefits the'men constituting the
board have received. One of the
many duties ot the incoming
legislature is to abolish the State,
Barbers' Board.
Spkakino of the senatoria
matter the Lincoln News says
"It is not unlikely that the sena
torial ngntjfviil be ended Very
hoc after it has begun. Mem
bemof the legislature who drop
into Lincoln from time to time
tteem to nave their minds made
up that there are subjects o
legislation that occupy more at
tention than the ambitions of a
number of senatorial aspirants.
They say that there will be no
long drawn-out fight like that of
two years ago because the con
ditions will be different and the
press of other business too great
to permit of so much time being
spent on this matter,"
Tim Lincoln correspondent of
Bcc says: For maintaining all
state offices and institutions, for
repair and construction of build
ings, and for all other expenses
of conducting the state govern
ment for the two fiscal years b;
ginning April 1, 1901, the- legis
lature will be asked to appro
priate $2,721,001. This amojunt.
is $129,628 in excess of the total
of all appropriations made by the
legislature of 1899 and doc's not,
include a lot of deficiency claim.4
that will be presented by various
.institution. Neither docs it in
clude the loan of $20,000 made by
D. , Thompson for the trans
portation of the First regiment
none. It is estimated that the
total amount of claims, yet to be
jrttted WiU1 amount to possi
bly $300,000,, which will bring
the grand total up to nearly $3,-
-O0WK0.: The: legislature will be
ask4 to appropriate money .for
and this item alone will form a
argc portion of the balance of
appropriations yet to be asked
for.
A statu society of labor and
industry is incubating under the
patronage of the state labor com
missioner, the chief object of
which is to promote legislation in
he interests of labor. The first
obstacle against which the or
ganization will bump will be the
problem of convincing the
farmers and watrcworkera that
their interests are identical.
This problem has been taken up
several times in this state but
nofyct completely solved. Bcc.
XMUOATION AKD rORESTRY.
In his annual report the secre
tary of the interior urircs the
importance of governmental' aid
in the reclamation of the arid
lands of the west by irrigation,
thoufrh he docs not tro further
in the line of practical suggestion
than to recommend mat a com
mission composed of experts
now engaged in the examination
of water and forest resources be
formed to put the data acquired
in compact and intelligible form
and present their recommenda
tions to congress. The la&t con
grcss appropriated $100,000 to be
used in the geological survey in
its study of the problem of irn
gation and the secretary advises
a further increase.
If irrigation is to be prosecuted
on a large scale in the west, the
participation of the federal gov'
crnmcnt m tne work seems un
avoidable. Private enterprise
may reclaim comparatively small
tracts , of land and con tro
streams here and there, but if
there is to be any adequate con
servation of the water supply on
the watersheds for the irrigation
of considerable stretches of tor
ritory there must be fedcra
assistance, and it is the belief of
many students on tne subject
tliat this aid could be extended
with direct profit to the treasury.
Forest preservation and the irri
gation of arid lands are twin
problems and the solution of one
carries with it the consideration
of the other. The co-operation
Of state and national govern
ments in putting a stop to the
waste of resources nqw in
progress is of imminent import
ance. Minneapolis Times.
