Some of tho newspapers aro energet
ically bmldiug railways and extensions
since tho management of some of the
roads have boon chauged Particular
interest is shown in prospective lines in
the southern part of Sonth Dakota the
Black Hills north Nebraska and Pncifio
connections Time has demonstrated
that while tho nowBpnper railroads may
prove interesting reading to some people
tho real building is only done when the
railroad management takes a hand
The Yankton Norfolk and South
western has been built many times by
the newspapers but not a rail has been
laid
Tho south wiud which prevailed to

tho disastrous hot wiuds of sovoral years

a frost late in May to iujuro vegetation
aud no niin followed it aud none to

Up to tho present tune this year there

superfluity of rniu so thnt it would re

tho matter There are two many jkt
sons in the west who while they are

and advancement of tho east improve
every opportunity to send a shore of
their incomo to bwcII tho coffers of
eastern merchants and tliink because
they save a few cents they aro doing
their wholo duty to their family their

Many of thosp who enjoy fishing nnd
hunting aro taking out licenses in ac
cordance with tho new stato lnw The
license fee for residents of the state is
f 1 nnd for non residents flO per year
Blank licenses are furnished tho county
clerks Ono provision of the law is
thnt nil guns ammunition dogs blinds
and decoys and any apd all fishing
tackle in actual use by persons hunting
or fishing without a license shall be
forfeited to the state This provision
is a strong argument for a license and
few care to incur the risk Thoec who
use other than a hook and line in catch
ing fish also incur a great risk the
law providing that every net seine
trap explosive poisonous or stupefying
substance or device use or intended for
use in taking or killing game or fish in
violation of this act is declared a
public nuisance and may be abated and
summarily destroyed by any person
August 0 will bo a lively day in Okla
homa the president having est that
date for the opening of the Wichita
Commanche Kiowa and Apache Indian
reservations A drawing will be held
at El Reno ou the iiOth instant to decide
in what order registered applicant
will be allowed to enter lands The
government is certainly entitled to
credit for an effort to prevent the un
seemly ruBh that has characterized the
opening of other reservations when the
weak and feeble often more deserving
of a claim had no show with the swift
and strong Fault will probably be
found with tho method to bo pursued
but any method would bo criticised
where something is given away for
nothing and the government is the
giver A person contemplating making
an entry must be prepared for disap
pointments as all cannot secure land
A sure way to guard against disappoint
ment would bo to invest in tome of Ne
braskas fertile lands These you can
be certain to get if you pay the very
moderate price asked and you may rest
assured of its enpacity to produoe
An interesting program is being pre

State Horticultural socioty with ad
dresses by Gifford Piuchot of tho United

Hall superintendent of the Nebraska
forestry survey F H Newell hydro
grapher of tho United States service
Governor Savage and Ex Secretary of
Agriculture J Sterling Morton This
meeting should not ouly be largely at
tended by those interested in horticul
ture and forestry but by those deter
mined to profit by the suggestions and
who will make great strides toward the
development of tree growth in Nebraska
The state once a practically troele
prairie has blossomed out wonderfully
in lovely groves beautiful Held and
splendid lawns and gardens but very
much remains to be done in this direc
tion and the ambition of Nebraska
people should be to develop the state
until it becomes one of the moit beauti
ful regions from the viewpoint of an
artist or lover of trees aad scenery that
the country can produce It can be
done and every resident should be will
ing and ready to do his share

Did yon see womeu wives mothers

tho peoplo look at you that they may
know what sort of specimon n faUo

An Original Deluultrr
Tho confession uud story of tho de
faulting treasurer of Kearuty conuty
Alfred Norlin is about tho most sensa
tional thing thut has happened in tho
stnto for some years nnd is easily the
peer of anything in tho defaulting line
tho commonwealth has ever known His
crime and ingenious method of cover
ing might with very little alteration
be converted into n dime novel Story
that would eclipso anything of the
Dlnmond Dick of Swamprat Bill
sort
Tho story is full of beautiful mornU
that should deter any offlclnljor employe
from endeavoring to follow Norlin
scheme He was an honored and re
spected young man vflth so mnny
friends that it was considered he had a
sini cure nnd could bo ekcted to the
position he occupied ns often as he
wished Liko many other men hand
ling large sums of other peoples money
he wns tempted to speculate and when
his speculations had led him so far
WTong that ho considered reparation
impossible he concluded to make a
thorough job stole a largo sum and
conceived the idea of protecting himBelf
with a burglary and Are story It wan
early discovered however that his
story didnt connect well The main
particulars nppenred to be all right but
there were details that lookt d wonder
fully KusplcipuB and suggestive of crime
Tho investigation started finally re
sulted in the guilty man confessing his
crime nnd the ricovery of a portion of
the money which had been taken
NorlinB crime is not let b deplorable
because he has been prominent in church
and Sunday school work active in the
interests of temperance a trusted mem
ber of the Knight of Pythias and the
Royal Highlanders and last but not
least a fuiionist Most defaulters have
been content with the simple process of
looting without adding attempted
arson and Belf inflicted wounds to sus
tain a story of burglary but Norlin
eonis to have been intent on doing
something original and complicated
He will undoubtedly suffer exceedingly
for his crime most defaulters do es
pecially when they have bees so high
in public esteem and in one night have
fallen bo low
In view of this common lot of de
faulters it is astonishing that men
should continue to steal when they have
been honored by their constituents with
a high office and position of trust
Few escape in this day and age for
such crimes If they do manage to
evade the punishment of tho law by a
technicality they seldom if ever escape
public condemnation and social ostra
cism Friends and acquaintances shun
them and they are considered criminals
though they may not have submitted to
penal servitude in fact the sympathy
of the people Is stronger far those who
manfully submit to a deserved and
legal punishment than for those who
escape Nevertheless whether a man
is lawfully punished or not thero is
always a stain on his character that he
would undoubtedly give many times
the value of his loot to have removed
The story of the Kearney county de
faulter is nn nrgument for honesty thnt
should have more effect than r whole
library of sermons

confidential letters and conversations
attributed to him while imperial chan
cellor Is the following summury of his

what he will do It often happens

Regarding Emperor Williams fa

If tho emperor had known that
