A GLIMPSE
OF THE WEST
G. L. Sliurmvoy of Scottshluff Writes
Interestingly or His Trip to the
Coast and the 'Portland
Exposition.
It was the pleasure of our party to
meet Senators W. V, Allen and Tom
Carter early on om; trip to Portland.
Also C. F. Robertson and party, in
cluding Congressman Kinkaid, who
were bound for the Big Horn Basin, as
was also the Hon. d H. Morrill.
Tlie pleasure incident to the society
of distinguished persons was ours, but
the discomforts of travel I have seldom
seen equalled. We were unableto se
cure a sleeper until we arrived at Liv
ingston, Montana, and chair cars were
crowded to the limit. Dining car ser
vice was likewise wholly inadequate,
and altogether the traveler will com
mend the Burlington as giving about as
little as it is possible in the way of
comforts.
We passed progtessive Sheridan in
the night, and Custer's battle field in
the gray dawn. At Billings we found
one green oasis of the Yellowstone.
The thrift and enterprise reminded us
of our own Scotts Bluff county. In all
our trip we found but few spots that
compare. East of Spokane and near
North Yakama, Washington, are ex
tensive irrigated areas, where -land
values are phenomenally high, and tell
us what we may expact .when orchard
and vineyard covers our acres of fertile
lands in the North Platte Valley.
Small valleys in the mountains and on
the dreary plains of Idabo and Oregon
are cheerful contrasts to the expansive
areas of sand and sage brush and lava.
rock. After visiting a number of the
contemplated federal projected enter
prises, we are convinced that none can
offer such elements of cheer and com
fort as our own delightful section.
The most picturesque of all the
scenic features of the trip is that por
tion of the Northern Pacific where the
road scales the mountain top before it
enters Butte. The Stampede tunnel,
two miles long, that cuts through the
Cascade mountains, is another notable
feature, and Tennessee pass, Grand
River canyon and the Royal Gorge are
Colorado's contribution to the panor
ama on our return.
All are of course interested in the
Lewis and Clark exposition at Portland.
It is indeed a very creditable show,
abundance of water and natural
terraces, making an ideal foundation
to build upon. The attractions differ
not materially from usual exhibits at
such places, except preponderence of

MR. L. E. ROBERTS gives his personal attention to the classing

forestry building, with its logs, 5 to 20
feet in diameter, and hundred of feet

cent, but the vegetable array is not sQ
good. Scotts Bluff and Box Butte
potatoes are a luxury almost unknown
in the coast country, and our personal
regret is tha Nebraska's exhibit dftl
not contain more of that nature-arid
not so hcavilly on corn. Our localities
could well afford to give away a few
cars of our tubers, and results could
not have failed. 1 would commend tit

The reclamation service has an inter!

panoramic effect of a ride over .the
Trans-Siberia railway from Moscow to
Nadivostock. which, owing to preseht
international disturbances is of peculiar
and abiding interest. On this trip we
enjoyed the pleasure of company with
Prince Nicholas Sinelnicow, a Russian
ambassador, now doing America,
studying our methods of agriculture.
M. Sinelnicow was accredited delegate

A touching yet coldly scientific trib
ute to this age is the triumph of infant
incubators. Tender and scarcely alive,
poor tiny atoms of humanity are nur
ished in artificial chambers of glass, all
unconscious of public curiosity, nour
ished and fed for weeks and months
before the coming of nature's custom
ary natal hour. Thus accidents, that
might presage sorrow's childless doom,
may be transformed to boyous parent-.
age.
A trip to Venus, the Haunted Castle,
Darkness and Dawn, are good attrac
tions, and the Land of the Midnight
Sun is a marvelous electribal illusion
and takes one through raging storms
upon the Pacific and amid falling snows
of Alaska, from Pugit Sound to the
golden Yukon river, under bleak, for
biddidg clouds, or illuminated- by
Auroras, until the midnight sun shines
in its splendor over glacier covered
mountains. G. L. Siiumway.

point to a larger number of chidren at

It is a grand sight to sec the boys

that they have had a long season of

portunities offered and prefer to act
smart, smoke cigarettes and curse and
swear from the minute they leavo the
school till they butt into tho postoffee,
will have only regrets confronting them
in time to come. A boy may
