What do you th'nk about celebrat
ing the Fourth of July in Plattsmoutb
this year.and thereby keeping a large
amount of money at home that would

There is no reason why Platta
mouth should not have a good, old
fashioned Fourth of July celebration
this year. The expense need not be
very great to make all in attendance
enjoy the day. Let a few conservative
business men take a band and its suc
cess will be insured.
THE toils are being wound round
Bartley tighter and tighter as the
days go by his trial in Omaha. His
attorneys are having their well laid
Diana badly punctured, and as the
case proceeds toward a close it cer
tainly looks as though conviction of
Nebraska's biggest thief was certain.
, It can no longer be said that the
democratic party is absolutely proof
against reform. It has made progress,
Since the present debate on the
tariff began in congress no democrat
has risen up to solemnly declare that
a protective tariff is unconstitutional
besides being a fraud. While the
lamp holds out to burn, a democrat
may learn something of value to him

This is the season of year to abstain
more than ever from alcoholic drinks-.
A spare diet, not too much meat, and
all the cool water that the system
craves, will put every healthy person
in a condition to take considerable ex
ercise if necessary under the direct
rays of the sun. Prostrations are ex
tremely rare in this climate. A little
more regard for the ordinary rules of
diet and dress would make thom al
most unknown.
Professor Wolfe after being
fired from the University, refuses
to subside, and whines about being a
political martyr. The Lincoln Call
very tersely calls the pop ex-professor
down by saying that one of his chief
troubles was that "he cried out
against the crime of T3 and forgot all
about the good he might do in 1897."
The state university is no place for
hypochondriacs and the bouncing of
Wolfe is excellent evidence that the
regents and faculty are abreast of the
times.
SENATOR QUAY'S AMENDMENT.
The amendment offered to the Ding
ley bill by Senator Quay, that an ad
valorem tariff of ten per cent be col
lected on the entire free list, is in full
accord with the same idea that has
been suggested in the American
Economist for several weeks past
People are entirely in the dark as to
the amount of revenue that it may be
possible to collect from the Dingley
bill as revised by the finance commit
tee. As the measure cnme from the
- house of representatives it carried es
timates of revenues derivable from
each schedule. But the senate edi
tion of the bill failed to do this
If
Chairman Dingley was satisfied that
his original bill could produce suffi
cient revenue, then the finance com
miltee's revision of the bill should do
far more than this, because its ten-
' dency was to lower, tariff rates, and
consequently to larger importations
Presumably an estimate of revenue
of the Dingley bill, as agreed to by
the sedate, will be promptly furnished
Then the necessity, or otherwise, for
passing Senator Quay's amendment
will at once be apparent. Senators
should bear in mind that it is prefer
able to have a surplus rather than
deficiency. The democratic doctrine
of the evil of a surplus in the treasury
has long since been exploded. It is
- far safer to possess a dollar than it is
to be in need of one, and, before se
curing it, to be compelled to pay an
exorbitant rate of inaerest for the
temporary use of the harrowed money,
This truism has been forcibly im
pressad upon us by the democraiic
party, by a democratic free trade
'tariff for revenue only,'' and by
democratic financiering. The repubii
can party was not pledged to demo
cratic revenue methods, but distinctly
affirmed at St. Louis that:
We renew and emphasize our allegi
ance to the policy of protection as the
bulwark of American industrial inde
pendence and the foundation of Amer
ican development and prosperity.
We favor restoring the American
. policy of discriminating duties for the
upbuilding of our merchant marine
and the protection of our shipping in
'the foreign oarrying trade, so that
-American ships the product of Amer
ican labor, .employed in American
shipyards, sailing under the stars and
stripes, and manned, officered and
owned by Americans may regain the
the carrying of our foreign commence.
t Should the Dingley bill, as It passes
;tht senate, having first provided "the
most ample protection" for all Ameri
can industries, except American ship
ping, then fail to1 provide sufficient
' revenue for the needs of our govern
ment, it will be the manifest duty of
republican senators in congress to ad
vi f tbe republican platform and to
the pledges made to the people at St,
Louis in June, 1896. The party's
pledge is to protect American shipping
by restoring the American policy of
discriminating duties. . The adoption
of this policy; as part and parcel .of
the tariff bill, would probably provide
us with all the revenue that we need.
The recent heavy importations of
wool, woolens, sugar and other com
modities will check the prompt effec
tiveness of whatever Tariff bill may
be passed. Hence the adoption of
discriminating duties for the protec
tion of American shipping would aid
materially in supplying revenue dur-
ng the few years necessary to con
struct American transoceanic com
merce carriers. When they are built
and when our goodr are carried under
our own flag, the amount of revenue
derivable from discriminating duties
will be comparatively trifling. But
then the Dinglev Tariff will be in ei-
fective operation, supplying its full
modicum of revenue and affording its
ull measure of protection.
But, as already argued, it is better
to have too much rather than too lit
tle revenue. And if there be any
doubt as to the ability of the Dingley
bill to supyly sufficient revenue, then
it is the duty of congress, first, to pass
the discriminating duties bill of Sena
tor Elkins as an amendment to the
Dingley bill, and, second, to place an
ad valorem tariff of ten per cent upon
the entire free list To do this would
serve a double purpose. It would pro
vide revenue if needed, and it would
also afford abundance of material
whereby reciprocity could be re-es
tablished on terns advantageous to
ourselves. American Economist.

The Fall City Journal has a car

tracting much attention. The teach

and the "artist" did himself proud
upon the occasion, but it is not at all
probable that the school ma'ams ap
preciated his efforts when they saw
their likenesses in the Journal.

The women of Shenandoah, la..

bloomers while serving supper the
other evening, relates the Jefferson
Bee. The whole town turned out, in

church since they were wheeled in
baby cabs. The women kept their
word, but the bloomers were largo red
roses pinned in the usual place. Some
one was wise enough to make all at

such pain that she was nearly crazy
She sent Mr. Rowland for the doctor,

" Well. I guess I've got even with

gleefully, a3 he huug up his coat and
took his seat at the lunchuou table with
a party of friends.
"How's that?" asked ouo of the
friends.

"Why didn't you get up ami kick

"I did try to three or four times," ri
plied De Smith, "Imt he always got
down the hall a little way ami then
laughed at me. But I'm even with him
now. 1 was fixed tor Jiim wneii ie came

old Jouesiecame along and liegnn thump

and I heard old Jonesie curse tinder his
breath and mutter, 'Darn you, De
Smith, I'll get even for this. Then lie
walked down the hull and I looked out
in time to see him shaking the water
off his coat and hat."
"That was getting even pretty well,
old man. I with I could have Been him
when the flood struck him," put iu one
cf the party.
"Oh, that was all right for a ptart
rr," paid Do Smith, "but it wasn't
half tho doso I g.ive him after. You
see, Jones has been Lrcaking my sleep
for a week, and it took more tban a
bucket of water to square accounts. I
anticipated his visit of this morning,
so last night before going to bed I left
an order to call him at G o'clock. Old
Jouesio didn't get to bed before 3
o'clock, so he didn't get much sleep i
fore G. Then a bell boy begun to pc-und
on his doer and shout that it was time
to get np. Jones shouted back to the
boy to get out or he'd break hi.s net k,
but the boy replied that he had ortleiS
to get Jones out of bed and he was go
ing to do it. Finally Jones got up i?i
his rago and hustled down to the hotel
office to find out 'what in thunder they
meant by breaking his sleep that way. '
The clerk told him there was au order
for a call at 6 o'clock, and that was all
ho knew about it.
"Well, Jouesio went back to bed, but
he didn't get to sleep again. I paid the
bell boy enough to prevent that, and at
9 o'clock he came down to breakfst. I
was down town by that time, so I rang
Jonesie np on tho telephone. My ofiiee
boy got him on the wiro and told him
to wait ju-st a moment, please. Well,"
Jonesie waited about five minutes and
then gave the bell a vicious ring. The
boy answered the ring and asked Jonesie
what he wanted. 'I want to know who
rang me up, said Jonesie. 'Nobody
here, said the boy, and he said he
heard Jonesie swear as he rang olf.
"Well, I gave him that telephone
racket three times before he caught on.
He was pretty hot, I gness, when ho
reached his office, but I had a reception
for him there. I had telephoned to a
lot of my life insurance friends that
Jonesie wanted to take out a policy be
fore leaving the city iu the afternoon
and advised them to send a man around
to see him. There were two in the ofiiee
when he reached it, and five more came
in during the morning.
"Jones thought lie was going to do a
lot of work, too, but as a matter of fact
he spent the day explaining that he
didn't want any life insurance or any
thing else bnt a chance to tend to his
own business. One of the agents finally
let it out that I had recommended Jones
as a good risk, and ho rang me up at
once. 'I've got enough, he says. 'I'm
willing to call it all square if you are.
You've got tho best of it, I admit,' he
squalled, so I told him I was willing to
call it off if he would remember not to
hammer on my door hereafter when he
was going by at 8 in the morning. lie
replied that he wouldn't rap at my door
again if the hctel was afire, and so we
called it off.
'Jones has beaten mo out of a whole
lot of sleep of late, bnt I guess I'm

The Harvard Spirit.
Where so many men are working on
independent lines, with so much to keep
them apart and so little, comparative
ly, to draw them together, one may rea
sonably wonder whether such a thing
as a common Harvard spirit any longer
exists. It docs exist, so men say who
abide by the university and who ought
to know. They see it and feel it. It
does not penetrate all individuals in
the same degree, bnt it is reckoned with
and observed as a definite force. The
men best qualified to judge of it insist
that it makes for veracity, for a high
sense of honor and for good manners.
Indifference has sometimes been
charged against Harvard, and perhaps
not without some basis, but not indif
ference to truth. That is her quest in
science and in philosophy and the basis
of her law in matters of conduct. Veri
tas was not written on the Harvard
shield for nothing. The Harvard spirit
may need to be awakened and nourish
ed and kept alive, but it is wortli keep
ing alive, for truth is its mcst perva

POPULAR TRADITION.
INSTANCES WHERE IT WAS FOUNDED
ON HISTORICAL FACT.
The Missionary and the Old Stone Itenrh.
The Tradition of the namovhraciaha
About the Black Sea Key to the Wicked
Earl's TreaHure.
There was once an energetic and
strong minded missionary in tho south
seas, who took a great deal of interest
In the folklore of the island where lie
dwelt. After years of study he made up
his mind for good and all that then
was not a particle of factiu tb legends
professing to be historic which lie had
laboriously gathered. In distrust at his
own credulity, unwilling to let people
know what a fool he had been, he. toss
ed his whole collection into tho live.
Sorno days afterward there was a terrif
ic hurricane. The islanders had told
him that oueo upon a time long ago a
certain famous chieftain used to sit on
a Btone bench beneath a treo which
grew close to tho mission house. That
bench had disappeared, no one Knew
when or how, but in the days of hea
thendom they used to place offerings to
the spirit of the old chief near the. spot
whero it had stood. When tho mission
ary sallied out on tho morning after the
storm, tho first object ho noticed was
this tree overthrown and in tho midst
of its upturned roots hung a stone
bench.
Tho reverend gentleman Whiting
was his name, if we remember right
stood in a maze. Tho legend was true,
then. Examination proved beyond a
doubt that the lunch had rested against
tho bole of the tree in some distant age,
for thcro was no trace of an incision.
The wood had grown smoothly round
and over it. So far as ho could roughly
compute, four centuries must have
passed since it stood outside the trunk.
For that timo the islanders had pre
served the memory cf a circumstance so
trifling, for to question that this was
the bench they assigned to their mythic
hero would have been silly. And thru
the good man monrned his iiaste. Ho
had destroyed tho patient labor of years
becauso ho would not credit the ac
counts of grave events given iu all se
riousness by members of his flock, and
it proved that they were trustworthy
even on such a detail as the personal
habits of a man who died 400 years ago.
The story is ono to be borne in mii.d
by all students of folklore and of that
early stage in human annals which is
based upon tradition. But it docs not
follow that ilr. Whiting had good cause
to lament his burned manuscripts if he
valued them only" for the records of
events they might contain. That there
are particles ol fact in the most gro
tesquo of these legends, which pi of ess to
be historic, we find more and more rea
son to believe as onr knowledge widens,
but it is rarely possible to sift them
from tho mass of poetic nonsense. Sav
ages everywhere keep the memory of
startling incidents which occurred, as
we learn by internal evidence, an in
definite number of ages ago.
Geologists recognize that tho Black
sea was ouco a lake, with no outlet to
ward the Mediterranean. They incline
to think cr Leliovo that it escaped
through the Bosporus and the Darda
nelles shortly after the glacial period.
But Diodorns Siculus mentions a tradi
tion of the Samothracians exactly agree
ing with this account, which learned
men of the day have framed upon the
teaching cf science. Did the Samothra
cians exist in the glacial period? They
say that when tho Black sea broke its
barriers at last all their country was
drowned that was the Samothraciau
flood. And it is evident enough that
such must have been the result of the
cataclysm. There is a passage in Pin
dar also which some commentators in
terpret as an allusion to tho same pro
digious event.
Traditions cf the mammoth are so
general and so vigorous in the extreme
north of America that savants cf repu
tation are not unwilling to admit the
possibility tout it survived 200 years
ago, and others who have no scientific
reputation to hazard go very much fur
ther. Very tuiall details are preserved
by the popular memory sometimes.
When tho wizard Earl of , Foulis was
carried off to bo boiled alive its the only
means of killing hijii, tradition report
ed that ho threw away the key of his
treasure eh;imbor. It could never bo
found. But less than GO years ago
schoolboys playing in tho haunted ruins
unearthed a great key which might
very well have been tossed through the
airhole of a dungeon opening the
point is significant besido the road
along which the wicked earl was hur
ried. Many cases might bo cited where
even antique stories cf buried treasure
have been proved true. A notable one
is told by the worthy Dr. Plot in his
history of Herefordshire. Bransel castle
had a specially fine tale of this sort,
alleging that a king's mown was sunk
in tho moat. In 1G50 a cottager named
Tsler, planting a hedge along tho moat
t. protect his children, found a crown
set with diamonds. Ho sold it to a jew
eler at Gloucester for 37. The jeweler
transferred it to a Lombard street gold
smith at a great profit, and he sold the
diamonds alono for 1,500. London

Tin- only question is what can bo done with it. lis out of style
ii ml worn. Maybe it needs new lining, or should be nt ylir-hly
trimmed. Tin' old coat would make a beautiful full sweep cape,
and capos ate ju.-t the tiling this season. There's that eld fur gar
ment ou haven't worn for years, becauso it is all "fagged out."
Why, that will make n beautiful collarette; just the thing for fall
and spring wear. Then jut look at that garment. It is entirely
"gone up." Tho hair stands the wrong way on it anil it ia worn
and mutted. "Its no earthly iiie." Well, it does look b.id, but by
tho procss of glazing the fur in brought out nnd cleaned nntl then,
when remodeled, it is like now.
