HEBE'ti a welcome to you , fair
and prosperous Utah !
THERE is little to be reasonably
expected from this congress.
A CALL has been issued for
more gold bonds to pay the rtm-
ning expenses of Uncle Sam's
household.
EVERY genuine article has its
spurious counterpart ; and patriotism -
ism has not escaped the common
fate. It is daily counterfeited.
JOHN ; r. LAMBoRN of Indianola ,
representative from his district in
the last legislature , is the newest
candidate for state auditor.-Lin-
coln Journal.
IT would be difficult , perhaps ,
to decide which paper has the more
fun and satisfaction out of the
matter : The Culbertson Era in
writing "roasts" of Rosewater , or
the Lincoln Journal in copying ,
the same. Both seem to be having
a gleefully hilarious time. And
still Edward survives , and we wonder -
der at crime and the financial sit-
nation !
THE First National Bank of
Lincoln recently celebrated its
twenty-fifth anniversary and at
the same time very materially
strengthened its directorate , which
now embraces such men as C. E.
Perkins , president of the C.B. & Q. ;
G. B. Harris , vice president of the
C. , B. & Q. ; W. R. Kelley , general -
al solicitor of the U. P. , and other
men of means and position.
SOME of the newspaper gang
insist that Congressman Meikle-
john is hopelessly Jonahed by the
Slaughter
ter and Ed. Rosewater in his gub
ernatorial aspirations. And the
Bee asserts that Regent Merrill
prizes his six years regency bird
in-hand more highly than he does
E
the two years governorship bird
S in-the-bush. But it is early , very
early yet.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
, NEITHER Congressman Reed or
Senator Allison seem to suit Supreme -
reme President Traynor of the
A. P. A. ; but either of them will
go with the G.O.P. He concludes
an official circular by adding , that
in the event M any indication of
the Republican party "truckling to
Rome" , that "a new party should
and must result" . All of which is
important , if true. Also sad.
CHICAGO newspapers are inveighing -
veighing against the ' fads which
have attached themselves to the
public school system there. It is
asserted that pupils are surfeited
with fancy frills under the name
of public instruction , and leave
the schools unable to spell or reader
or cipher properly. Such comment -
ment is applicable to the Omaha
schools , as The Bee has often
pomted out.-Omaha Bee.

this was a mistake : She was carefully -
fully watched fiver all night by her
anxious parents and a few moments
before her death was discovered
her mother had placed her in a
more comfortable position , but so
easily did the little life go out that
the father at her bedside saw not
the change until after it had really
taken place.
