TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 1008, The Methodist conference at Balti more adjourned last night without mod ifiying its attitude toward card playing, theatre going and dancing, as was ex pected. An effort to introduce tho sub ject failed, and this class of amuse ment will therefore continuo to bo tabooed, notwithstanding many mem bers of the church cannot boo harm in such social diversion. The recount of mayoralty votes in Now York City showB gains for Hearst but thero will not be enough changes to chango tho result. This recount, however, on account of tho frauds, may shako things up in Gotham and moro honest elections may ensue. Un doubtcdly tho defeat of Blafno in 1884 was duo to tho fraudulent votes in Now York City. Enjoying Eastern Trip. Dr. Lucas, who with Mrs. Lucas, has been nttending tho Methodist general conference at Baltimore, in a card to this offico nays: "General conference closes tho night of Juno 1st.

Patten's share of tho corner on May corn and oats is said to havo been $2,000,000. Just how much his nssoci atcs made Ib not stated. To tho farmers of tho country tho "corner" was nn even split; thoso who held their corn and oats profited by tho raise, whilo thoso who had to buy in order to finish off tho cattlo they woro feeding lost money through Patten's deal, Proiiiiution rncoived another booBt last week when North Carolina gave a majority of nearly fifty thousand on tho voto for local option, Certainly prohibition has tuken n strong hold in tho south, and it is highly probable that tho result will provo beneficial to that section of tho country, moro so perhaps becauso tho negro population, naturally shiftless, becomes mora bo when thoy can obtalnjntoxicants.

Farmers of Congressman Kinkaid'u "big Sixth" district aro to havo tho services of an expert from tho agricul tural department to instruct them in tho growing of grasses and legumes on sandy soil. Tho "grasses" will no doubt bo bromo grass, a variety whoso ubo has been promoted by tho state agricultural scientists and which seems to havo solved what was onco a most baffling problem In Nebraska. Tho problem of securing a pasture to toko tho placo of tho native prairies which wo ploughed up In tho days of tho corn boom. Tho 'legumes' will of course bo alfalfa, tho plant that furnishes tho hay to match tho bromo grass pasture. Who shall say that theso eirorts anu others like them will not yet make western Nebraska in its way, acre for acre, approximately as great and re- CANT DENY IT.

This is not surprising the public havo been humbugged "bo frequently thoy are skeptical. Proof liko tho following will stand investigation. It cannot be disputed. J. P.

Tho history of Nebraska Is sufficient reason to suspend iudirmont. even though wo may havo doubts. In a recent articlo Mr. Albert Wat- kins mentions that Governor Izard ve toed in 18137 a bill to locate tho state capi tal in Lancastor county for this reason: "It is, I boliovo, univorsally conceded by all who aro familiar with tho geog raphy of tho territory that our princi pal settlements for many years to como will bo confined to a tract of country not extending moro than thirty miles from tho Missori river." And ho quotes ThomaB Gibson of Dpdgo county, who said on tho samo subject: "From In formation which may bo had it is sup posed that eighty to ono hundred miles will bo tho extent of our settlements westward." If our wcatward agricultural horizon advances half as far In tho next twen ty years as it haa In tho forty years since theso men prophesied tho thing wo now dream of western Nebraska will bo realized. And sinco tho dream Ib not based on change of cllmato but upon adaption to it, n matter of Bclcnce not luck, tho fulfillment of the dream to an important degreo is rather con fidently to be expected.

While the temporaturo In wostorn Nebraska last week was below normal for that period of tho year, in tho east and particularly in PittBburg tho heat waa cxceaslvo, ten deaths occurring in that city from heat prostrations. Whilo tho weather hero has been too cool for the rapid growth of corn, on tho othor hand wo should feel gratoful that in tenBO heat has not como "all in a bunch". In their proposed political compaign to elect officials favorablo to thoir in terests, tho railroad omployes, or rather thoso who aro conducting tho campaign, will hayo this advantugo ovor tho other follows: thoy will bo ablo to travel on passes and thus save a princely sum In car faro. With fifty or a hundred railroad men visiting every town and hamlet in tho stuto nnd influencing a fow votes in each, thoy will cut somo figure. But whilo tho ' railroad men aro doing this, what will tho furmor and Bhipper tho follows who want freight reductions bo doing? Valuation of Nebraska Railroads. Tho valuo of all tho railroad proper ty in Nebraska no fixed by tho stuto board of assessment is $200,814,799 as against $205,183,565 in 1007, an increase of $1,631,234. Increases were made only on tho Central City branch of the Union Pacific from from $20,000 to $30,000 a mile, tho O'Fallon branch of tho Union Pacific from $17,000 to $20, 000 4 a milo, Sioux City & Western of tho Burlington system from $25,000 to $32,000 a milo. This will increase tho nsscascd valuo of tho railroads a total of $320,2-17 or one-fifth of tho incrcaso on tho actual value. Govornor Sheldon desired to increase tho valuo of tho Union Pacific from $73,933,889 to $83,900,000 and Secretary of Stuto Junkin moved to increaso the total valuo of tho Burlington from $110,170,870 to $119,374,080. Theso two voted aye on these motions. Treasurer Brian, Land Commissioner Eaton and Auditor Soarle voted in tho negative.

Many men who admiro Bryan as a man think ho has admirable qualities, and, in short, a remarkable man, do not consldor him a fit person for presi dent. Tho editor of Harper's Weekly relieves his mind concerning Bryan as follows: "Nothing will teach htm political wis dom. His head is not built to hold it. His processes of thought do not yield it. Ho cannot think right on tho groat concerns of political policy and state craft. Doubtless ho would if ho could, but tho power has not been given him. What has been given him Ib a remark ably strong, enduring body, a magnifi cent assurance, an engaging manner and n wonderful gift of speech, He is full of tnlont; ho makes many friends: ho is one of tho bcBt talkers in tho world. Theso gifts havo won him tho leadership that ho enjoys. Ho is great follow, is Dr. Brynn, but ho Ib not a great ktatcman and never will be. lie Is u fair mpralist, n great entor taincr, aid would probably havo mado a notablo preachor or un oxtruordlnary actor, mat no nas great gilts is in disputable; that he has groat persona uttractivcnoBB is ovident.
