Governor Says Irresponsible Paper
Has Misconstrued Speech.
NO ATTACK UPON UNIVERSITY
Secretary J. A. Piper Pay V1U to
State Penitentiary and Find In
stitution Running Smoothly
Mellor Take Vacation.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, June 6-(Speclal.)-"Its a 11
and the whole thing a mess of garbled
stuff," was the reply Governor Aldrich
made to a Bee representative In the execu
tive office this morning when asked about
the report published by the World-Herald
regarding his address at the University
of Omaha, "I never said what the World
Herald publishes and its attempts to make
the people believe that I am not a friend
of the state university is purely for
political purposes. The state university
ani its success lies very close to my
heart and any attempt to make the people
bplieve otherwise is false.
The governor feels quite badly over
what he considers an attempt to put him
in bad with an institution in which he
has especial interest. He says that what
he did say is so far removed from what
the report says he said that there is no
relation whatever between them. "It only
goes to show," he said, "how easy it Is
to make a mountain out of a molehill."
Governor Aldrich went to Omaha to
night to speak before the meeting of the
State Building and Loan association.
Mellor to Minnesota.
Secretary Mellor of the state fair board
will leave tomorrow for a Week's visit

Piper at Penitentiary.
.Secretary J. A. Piper of the board of
charity and corrections went to the
penitentiary yesterday to look over that
Institution. He reports that he ' found
nothing to complain of, but much to com
mend. The cells are being painted and
the ceilings brightened up while the food
Is exceptionally good and well cooked.
The supply of water which ran low a few
days ago Is getting all right again and
he thinks with the sinking of another well
outside the prison for emergency purpotes
that the problem of water supply will be
solved. Secretary Piper makes his visits
unannounced and drops in on the Institu
tions when he is not expected. "In that
way," he said, "I discover the true con
ditions as they exist and they are not
fixed up awaiting my visit"

Don't hide your freckles under a veil

TEACHERS AS AGENTS.
In the first five months of 1912, The
Midwest' Ldfe has written praetically the
same amount of Insurance that It did. In
the first eight months of 1911.,' Business
has been so good that the agency force
will make a hard effort to close the year
with $5,000,000 of insurance in force. Why
not become an agent and help accom
plish the result?
The new policies are excellent sell
ers. They are right up to date and
represent the very best there Is in
modern life Insurance. Many teachers
add materially to their Income by sell
ing life insurance during the summer
vacation. Here is a splendid opportunity.
The commissions paid are liberal. No
previous experience is necessary. A

intendent of tho water development on
the Mississippi river at Keokuk.

NEBRASKA LOOKS BETTER
THAN WESTERN STATES
After a trip along the western coast,
Ralph Sunderland has returned to Omaha
and makes this statement:
"When one comes down through the
productive valley of the Platte, where
every acre has earning value and realizes
that the whole Missouri valley Is of that
sort, it is hard to understand how the
western coast and the states in between
can pull settlers, who, with less capital
and less labor could make a better living
In Nebraska."
While stopping in Oakland, Sunderland
had a chance to see the commission plan
of government in operation. Under the
plan, he says, the city has acquired the
entire water front and Is destined to out
rank San Francisco as a port. "Property
values in Oakland, especially business
property, have not yet become inflated
and much eastern capital is investing
there.
Unprejudiced observers predict the ulti
mate supremacy of Portland over Seattle
because of the better location of the for
mer city. Portland has a splendid fresh
water harbor for the largest ocean ships."

LARGE SECTION OF WHEAT

the Merchants, says the extreme western
part of the state had enjoyed two or three
good rains and that winter whoat was tn
good condition. East of Curtis and Mc
Cook, including the country around Hol
drege and Hastings, had no such luck,
however, said Burton.
'There Is a strip that runs from Kar.
sas north to Alberta, Canada, averaging
from fifty to 200 miles in breadth in whlcfc
wheat is in the best of shape. It Is not
so much rain as it was the quality of
the soil. The heavy snows soaked tha
ground well and the moisture lias beer,
retained. Prospects for good crops In
this strip were never better."
