The new B. & M. dining hall has about
received its finishing touches , and Land
lord Phelps is busy arranging thingspre-
paratory to opening the new house. The
kitchen is a model of convenience , and
the new range seems ample for a house
twice as large. While the new building
is not so spacious as the old one , it is
large enough , as many of the superfluous
appendages have been dispensed with.
Mr. Phelps will run the house in connec
tion with the Beaver house , which is
close by , serving the meals at the dining
hall and using the Beaver for lodging his
guests. Akron Pioneer-Press. ,

Glimpses of the Monroe Doctrine.
In eighteen hundred twenty three , some seventy -
enty years ago ,
The president of this nation great , was noble
James Monroe :
The fifth in line from Washington , his rule
was wise and just.
His doctrine of that type and kind , the people
well might trust ;
His platform made of bolid boards not one a
worthless plank ,
He had no , use for boodle hordes , much less
for our time crank.
His heart was very large and kind , with sense
of justice full ;
He said my friends we'll stay at home , but
shake hands with John Bull.
Then Johnny he will take the hint , if wc do
'not go hence ,
That while we're friends and stay at home , he
must keep off our fence.
Thus all our presidents in the line , clear down
to little Grover ,
Have had the precepts of Monroe to bridge
all troubles over.
Now Johnny Bull in his t.wn home is bright
and always calm ,
But still his fingers seem to itch to pick at
Uncle Sam.
When Venezuela , near our shores , lay bask
ing in the sun ,
It dawned on Johnny all at once to take her
for his o\yn.
And now the doctrine of Monroe , of years for
ever gone ,
Spoke through our congress halls and said ,
Let Vcnzy quite alone.
Now Johnny dare not drop his toys to shake
his little fist ,
While Uncle Sam five men sent out , the lion's
narrative , to twist.
With due respect for England's Queen , and
all her noble host ,
Monroe draws straight the boundary line
along our nation's coast.
America should hold her own , some wrongs
should lightly pass ,
But crowded to the wall , she'll say , You must
keep off the grass.

Joe Saunders has been building a new

We hear that some across the line in
Frontier county have raised a large crop
of turnips.
Rev. D. S. Morris preached an interest

In writing up that surprise party of
September 19th , we made mistakes We
said that all voters at said parly were for
McKinley. It should have read all voters
but one. We said that Mr. S. received
many presents. Those presents belonged
to the bride of the next day of which we
gave an account. It was purely a mis
take 011 our part.
THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS
Necessity for Adopting the Amendment
Enlarging the Supreme Conrt.
Of these there are twelve in number.
Provision has been made by statute so
that a vote may be cast upon these
amendments as a whole or with refer
ence to each separately , The first
amendment on the official ballot is to
increase the number of supreme judges
of this state from three , its present
number , to five. The necessity for this
increase becomes clear when we reflect
that in the supreme court there are.now
undisposed of 1,675 cases and that the
very highest average rate at which
cases have heretofore been disposed of
is 660 per annum. To clear the docket
of pending cases would require the court
as at present coustituted , to work more
than two years. The cases being com
menced in the supreme court are at the
rate of 740 annually , so that with a
clear docket to commence with it
would be impossible to dispose of cases
as fast as they are filed.
There is no danger that a majority of
those voters who vote upon this amend
ment will vote against it. An amend
ment to prevail must receive a majority
of all votes cast at the election at which
it is submitted. For example let it be
assumed that at the coming election
there will be cast the highest number of
votes for governor. If the aggregate
number of votes cast for all the candi
dates for governor equals 300,000 a con
stitutional amendment to be adopted
must receive 150,001 votes , for the re
quirement is that the amendment must
RECEIVE A MAJOEITY OF ALL THE VOTES
east at the election atwhichit is sub
mitted. From the figures as to the condition -
dition of the business of the supreme
court above given , it would seem that
this particular amendment will meet
with no opposition. But this is not
enough. A majority of the entire num
ber of electors who vote in Nebraska on
November third nest must express them
selves in favor of this amendment or it
will noc be adopted. '
