ent Order of United Workmen had
Another big time Monday evening.
October 2. There was another good
class of candidates initiated. Alli
ance lodge has certainly been blessed
with Brother H. D. Walker's pres
ence, our deputy grand master. He
has increased our membership by his
efforts with 62 new members while
sojourning with us. He has simply
rejuvinated this lodge. It has been
remarkable to us the way he can ex
plain the "Good of the Order." the
way that he can write up a candi
date, and the way he has gone ofter
resident members holding member
ship elsewhere to transfer into No.
202 and become active members
again.
We are meeting every Monday ev
ening with a good attendance. We
wish to call special attention that
our regular meetings are every Mon
day evening, with cigars every meet
ing night, and our "Draw Box" is
bringing out the members who real
ize that it is to their interest and
pleasure to be there.
Brother Walker is in a class by
himself when it comes to getting t he
members out, and he is in the first
class for persistent work, with his
modest, sincere, strong arguments
for fraternal insurance, in landing a
prospective for our grand old order.
We regret to m e hi in leave us, he
seems to us as a permanent fixture,
and we hope to see him aeain in our
midst. Our b'j.-t wishes go with our
good brother for his success in his
new field:;; and the success of our
"Great Fraternity," I tie monarch of
them all.
After the close of our regular
lodge meeting, the floor was cleared.

Seventeen car loads of cattle from

policy of using the grazing lands on
the reservation for the benefit of the
Indians.
"All of these cattle were range
grazed and grass-fed," he. said. Not
a pound of corn or other feed than
grass or hay had been given tlivin.

(By A. U. (Jroh, in Omaha Bee)
As the fiftieth anniversary of Ne
braska's admission to the Union is
being celebrated, let us learn a few
interesting facts about our state.
Nebraska was the thirty-seventh
state. At the election in 1866 the
vole for the state constitution was
extremely close 3.938 for it, and
3.838 against.
President Andrew Johnson did his
best to keep us out. Congress pass-
t eel tne act ol u.inusslon .luly lh,
11866, but Johnson didn't sign it. In
I February, 1867, he again vetoed a
similar bill, but it was passed over
'his veto. Which taught "Andy"
J that you can't keep a good state out.
' When Nebraska w:is admitted to
the Union. Iowa had 'been a state for
j twenty years. California for sixteen,
Minnesota for eight and Kansas for
live years.
After the edniis.olon of Nebraska
no other state wad admitted for tei.

for safety, economy and quick returns.
The Hartford Live Stock Transit Policy

policy ensy to understand, clear in its terms, which Rives absolute protec
tion npainst loss from hazards of transportation including suffocation, freezing-,
trampling, fire, collision, train wreck and every form of killing or injury
years; that is, until 1876, when Col
orado came in.
Thirteen years more elapsed after
that until North and South Dakota,
Montana and Washington were ad
mitted In 1889.
Idaho and Wyoming gained state
hood in 1890; Utah in 1896; Okla
homa In 1907, and New Mexico and
Arizona, the youngest in the sister
hood of states, in 1912.
The territory of Nebraska was or
iginally several times the size of the
present state. All that area between
the Canadian border and the north
ern line of Kansas and between the
Missouri river and the "summit of
the Rocky mountains" was Nebras
ka. Thus Nebraska included the pres
ent state, tne , nortlieast section of
Colorado, part of Idaho, nearly all of
.Molilalia and Wyoming, western
South Dakota and southwestern
North Dakota.
The limits of this vast territory
were gradually cut down as other
territories were formed until it
ivulied its present size and shape.
Nebraska's area is 77,520 square
.nibs. It is bigger than all the New
KnMaiid states combined. It is more
i! an iuce us large as Indiana, nniir-
wice as large as Pennsylvania.

There are only fourteen dates In
the Union that are larger.
The state extends 415 mlleB from
east to west at Its widest point and
Is 205 mileB from north to south.
"Nebraska" Is an Indian name and
means "shallow water."
Do you know the great seal of
your state? Probably not (unless
you belong to the "observation
class"). Well, there's a blacksmith
at his anvil in the foreground. Far
ther back we observe a tree, a steam
boat on the river, some sheaves of
grain, a train consisting of engine,
tender and one car. In the sky Is
the 'state's motto, "Equality before
the law."
The value of the state today, ac
cording to the tax assessors. Is Just
about $2,.r.OO.000.O00.
That will bo all for today. The
class Is dismissed.
