Governor Hoosevolt will next Sunday
nf toruoon address tho 1 411 branches of
the Young Mens Christian association
in North Amoricn Ho will spenk in
Carnegie hall New York and simul
taneously advance copies of his address
will be road before tho other organiza
tions of the association
You may bet a copper cent on the ns
Bortion that Norfolks increase in popu
lation was not as great during the past
tea years as it will be in the coming do
cade Norfolk has boen sort of resting
on her oars but she proposes to offer
induoeiueutB to immigrates from now
on that cannot bo surpassed by any
other locality in tho state
Tho United States is fast becoming
the largest producer of textile fabrics in
the world During MK0 live huudrod
and thirty ono new mills for the manu
facture of cotton woolen and silken
goods have been constructed being
almost double the number erected dur
ing 189S Who wouldnt bo proud of a
record like this And yet there are
pessimists who will arguo that the coun
try has enjoyed no prosperity and that
its greatness is on a decline
The Omaha affair bus resulted in look
ing up the laws on kidnaping in many
states and it is likely that more string
ent statutes will be made than ever be
fore One leading daily ia of the opin
ion that a life sentence wonld be none
too severe a penalty for the crime The
first consideration in the Omaha case
kowever seems to he the capture nf the
feandits Whon they ore in the hands
of the ofticers the disouBsiou of an ade
quate punishment will be very perti
nent
Tho irrigation of the semi arid west
and prevention of floods along the Mis
sissippi valley is to be one of the first
important questions for this country to
olve during the Twentieth century
That it will receive attention and be
handled with profit to the country and
its people 1b conclusive when its record
of the Nineteenth ceutury is considered
It is a question that has been Bucceos
fully handled by other countries and
the United States will not take n baok
seat for any of them when it comes to
progress
The politicians are gutheriug at Lin
coln prepared to bo in at the first heat
in the race for position during the com
ing legislature The contest for senators
-will naturally he of the first importance
and the outcome is eagerly anticipated
although many seem to think that there
iv
no excuse for making a hero of the
prisoner in fact ovory sensible nrgu
mont is against it As long as thon are
silly womon nnd foolish men to worship
a murderer through the bnrs thoro will
bo iucontivo toward committing tho
crime
