A lengthy nrticlo appeared In the Satuniay Evening Post recently laud ing n certain United State senator from Wyoming. Tho pith of tho article con listcd in tho argument tliat Wyomng waa more successful than any other atate in the union because of her habit o kepping her delegation In congress tie samo year after year, thus enabling th'sm to ncauiro greater standing. Tnis would bond argument at all when Iharovwos any scrioua objection to tho nor for disturbing tho peace, and tho ino-fc as men, but whon nothing is In- mpinr', who bad known blip for thirty volvcd save a little factional objection years, naid: tho theory can ho applied by Nebraska j "J , nn't mnko It out ion nro with profit. Norris Drown, who has'? b'?" been a senator from Nebraska for six Ill 1. A xlal.B A k 1 1 I years, will bo able to accomplish moro If ho is returned than a man new to tho senate. This In said with no per sonal detraction from' Goorgo W. Norris, but simply bocuuso Nebraska, needs every posslblo clement of atrength In congress. Senator Brown, howovor, has made nn excellent record, nnd there is no possible doubt that ho occupies that happy medium ground be tween Insurgency nnd standpatism. Ho was foremost In the progressiva move ment In tho state, and has adhorcd to mighty good common sonso In his sub sequent actions In tho senate. Noth ing will bo gained by Nebraska In re placing him with a now man, and thus losing prestige of his present standing. Tho Courior has given this general opinion frequently in reference to Con gressman Klnknld, and is entirely con sistent in applying Die samo theory to Senator Brown. WhatNobraska needs Is to keep her members of congress and senators thore for the service they can render, noffor the little sentiments played up by tho malcontents, and the right plnce to bogln in tho senate is with the return of Senator Brown.

"I took a drink of hard elder two ycurs old. uud it mado mo lose my bond." Ah Jabcr. was a church member, tho brethren, bad to take up bis lapse from grace, and nothing elso waa talked of for two weeks. Then, nt tho Jnstnnco of Deacon Baker, who bad been drink- lug bnrd cider for twenty-eight years und novcr stubbed bis toe over It, a committee of nix was appointed to In vestigate and report. They drove out to Htcbblns' place, nnd bo drow n pall of elder mid took them out to the barn. Tho deacon led off with nbottt n pint and atnncked his lips find passed the cup. There was a wait of fifteen minute to watch rcnults. They didn't pan nut much. Deacon Black got a little playful and threw Goodwill Jones on hie back, and 8nul Johnson turn ed the handle of nn old fanning mill m fast as to shnko jtho wholo thing down, but these things were not recorded- Tho pall wan emptied nnd Jnbez re filled It. Ho wasn't In on tl.o drinks, but his face were a broad grin after that second drink had been taken. 'Symptoms" koou developed. Deacon Hope, who had been carrying a bland countenance, suddenly sobored up and turned to Deacon Thomns nnd said: 'Deacon, durn a'our hide, but 1 bo- Hove you'd hldo stones In a lond of bay." "What's that?" shouted' Deacon Thomas. , "Say, you old bog stonier, don't you go talking about mo or I'll knock your head off I" I'cnco was made between tho two men. hut u moment later Goodwill Joiioh brought Beujnmln Schcrmcrhoru n mighty shin between the shoulders und cried out: "How Is qt, old man do you lick your wife as often as you used to?" "I never licked hurl" "You uro a llarl" "Lemuie get at him!" There were two or three other out breaks, but by nnd by tho dovo of peace came, and all cried on one an other'H shoulders. Then Deacon Black stepped up to tho cider pall for the third time and huskily said: 'Ladles and gem'len, wo have met to test Uils hard elder question, and. uy gum. wo nro going to uo it: i say H won't iutoxlcato, nnd tho mnn who saya It will Is a llarl" Knock bm head o(Tl" shouted Saul Johnson, - I'll knock yours off Instead!" whoop ed Goodwill Jones.

ITo made no mistake. Ten minutes after the third pint was down Deacon Bluek proposed n country tlnnco, and till began to sbufllc and cavort nud slug. Tho horseplay lasted nbout n quar ter of an hour. Then they fell upon ono atiothcr'a necks jind cried. Thou Deacon nopo charged Deacon Black with putting only ti cent In tbo contri bution box tbo 8unday previous, and tho latter called Deacon Hopo n hu man hog, Then tho fight began.

Of course there was More talk, and. it was a week beforo the committee reported. The substance of the report was; "Owing to the fact that a cyclone came along and destroyed the barn be fore we had finished our test we can't say whether hard cider intoxicates or Hot We suggest, however, that it be kept mostly for tin peddlers."
