The sixty-first congress adjourned shortly after noon Saturday without accomplishing as much as was ex pectcd. In addition to passing appro priation bills, it provided for the forti fication of the Panama caaal, two now battleships, creation of forest reserves in the south, paused the bill, providing for the inspection of locomotive boilers, recodified the judicial code ameliorating tho delay of the law, and provided for legation buildings abroad.

Senator HmkUi(4 Stands Second. When The Tribune suggested the .name efW. V. Hoagland for state aena tor, it saM that as a senator the fellows ' in Lincoln and at tho. stato house would know that Hongland waa in town. The election of Mr. Hoagland and his service as senator proves tho truthful- , nees if Thi Tribuno prediction. Not only is he recognized us n leader In the senate, but he has much influence among tho members of the houso, and more than thin, he is & busy fellow. He succeeded in introducing thirty-nine measures in tho house, With one x ception tho greatest number introduced by any senator, the ono exception being Senator Bartoa who presented forty two, Not all Senator Hoagland'a bills will become laws, but he will probably get as large a percentage through as f any ether senator.

Eighth asd Locust Discusses Sanitary Conditions. To the Editor of The Tribune: I read tho article in a recent number of The Tribune, relative lo the Iecatlon of a hospital. Property ownera' in- torestii should ne doubt by duely considered in the location of any build ing of a public nature; for the homes of any city are its vitals; but I couldn't help but think If a hospital which is universally to say the least- sanitary, quiet and respectable, fs con sidered a nuisance or that its location would cheapen surrounding property, bow ought the complaints of scores of other property owners to be consid ered I People all ever town are abiding un sanitary buildings and lots; next door to them perhaps. And it is a disgrace to the town. Property owners must put In sewers; must put in walks as specified by the city and pay high taxes on top of these expenses, yet they must be annoyed by trespassing stock and dogs; their health must be endan gered by filthy conditions of adjoining property and their property depre ciated by hundreds of dollars. Ia it right? Is it expedient? Is it sensible or necessary? The time is coming whn North Platte will have to wnke up and clean up and give its property owners a square deal. There is no reason in the world but this, why North Platte should not be the third city in the state In five years. Five years ago when tirst saw North l'iatte, 1 aaid I never saw a city more beautifully located or that had better kopt lawns. Then saw it from the "front door" and be fore weed time, I'believe that most will agree with me that whiio its grown wonderrully and made some beautiful addition, that its not as clean as it was five years age. isn't it about time every one was getting interested in making North l'iatte a clean city Other towns are performing seeming miracles all tho time in this direction, We do nothing. And the cleaning up does uot need to be loft to personal settlement, ao if it was a matter simply between neighbor and neighbor. A dlsrepectable loooking place; weed covered lot, much less a glaring menace to the public health, should never need to bo reported. Officials are chosen and paid for looking after the Interests of the public and tho city es peclally, and the blind aro seldom chosen to execute ordinances. Hence the governing of a city should be tirely above petty principles or petty politics. Now shouldn't it? M. H. Axtell. C. A.

A PAYNE'S DIARY FARM', ' One-half mile south of postoffice, J Down at Kansas City the other day one Joseph Fels, a billionaire soap- maker whose hobby is to "single tax" on land, discussed the condition of the poor and made this atrocious state ment: "The childron of the depen dent poor might better die ia their Infnncy than survive t fight the un even battle of life under the present social conditions." This is not all that he said but the balance is immaterial, Mr. Fels forget that nearly every child in this country has the oppor tunity to secure an education that af fords a sufficient start, and that the poor boy of today may be the rich man ef the noxt generation, or what is better yet a self-supporting and self- respecting citizen. "Let tho children die!" This may be a pleasant cred for rich soap maker, the creed of a fatalist, but adhorrent to a christian civilization evon with its many human faults.
