'l'IIE President's message , like
all other presidential state papers ,
: is a statesmanlike utterance , or a
disalipointing failure , just a you
look through Republican or Democratic -
ocratic optics.
) / ' THE Nebraska delegates in theY
Traus-Mississippi congress who
wish to secure practical results from
the session here will urge the questions -
tions of irrigation and immigrrtion
upon the attention of the congress.
These matters are paramount in
this state today and they go hand
in hand. The time will soon come
when every agency that can be employed -
ployed by our people will be used
to further irrigation enterprises
and swell the inflow of newcomers
upon Nebraska praries.-Omaha

. THE deficit for th'j month of
' October in the national treasury
was $ G,000,000 , . It was reduced
a million on the last day by sharp
practice , the treasury paying out
only a few thousand dollars in
place of the average million of a
days expenses. Of course that
was simply passing the additional
million of deficit over to November ,
"after the elections. " The
amount of the deficit since the 1st
of July , the beginning of the fiscal
Year , is $1G,000,000. At the same
rate the year's shortage will b e
about $50,000,000.
T'IIE agitation for more convenient -
venient dress for women has been
won in advance , and the only delay -
lay will be in accepting and getting -
ting used to the results. It is now
clear that women are to compete
with men in many lines of activity.
This being admitted , it cannot be
expected that they will long consent -
sent to handicap themselves by in-
/ COIIValliellt methods of dressing.
They may not come to dress like
men , but they are bound to dress
as sensibly. Women can get along
with doll's feet as long as they are
treated like dolls , and no longer.
THE Russian thistle has made its
appearance in New York and the
scientists there say it is a blessing.
The Canada thistle once invaded
the same territory , and in order to
get rid of it the farmers had to
' thoroughly cultivate and dig a little
farther into the bowels of the earth
to extirpate the roots of the alleged
. . ' pest. The consequence was that
' , it polished of their Canadian , invader -
vader they increased the crops
everywhere , Rhe Canada thistle
is gone and now , lest they should
stop thorough cultivation , the Rus-
sion thistle comes along to encourage -
age them to continue their well-
doing. The Russian thistle will
not grow where the soil is thoroughly -
ghly cultivated.

on the 27th. Alexander Dumas ,
novelist and dramatic writer , was i
.
' born in Paris , J my 28 , 1824. He

been a conspicuous figure , and at
the age of 17 published his first
volume. His education was received - '
J
ceived at the college Bourbon and
at its conclusion he traveled with
his father in Africa and Spain.
In all Dumas wrote sixteen
plays. Scarcely one is not literature -
ture , while five or six of them are
masterpieces of construction , characterization -
acterization and writing. His
novels are considerad classics ,
1
while his letters , prefaces and
speeches are brilliant and admirable -
able in form and in matter , daring
t and suggestive to a high degree.
