Experience CohuU i'h Congress.
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.

As per tho bills on the farmers' Iwiras
for miles around n circus made Its ap

day and ect up Its tents. Among the
farmers who drove in to see things was
.labcz Btcbblns, but be didn't think It
a bit wicked to view the elephants and
camels as tboy paraded up and dowa
tho streets.
People noticed tfint bo seemed to be
feeling extra good ns bo drovo In, but
half nn hour later he astonished every
body, lie uttered a preliminary whoop
or two nnd then got down from bis
wagon to tackle ono of tho elephants.
Of courso tho circus men Interfered,
and then ho cut loose and licked thrco
of them beforo ho could bo quieted.
Ho wits hauled up beforo Squar' Wor

....
Jo make you net as you did. I'm going
to let you go, but my ndvko to you Is
to beware of the flowing bowl In tho
future."
"Squnr It was bard cidernothing
but hard older," explained Jnbez. "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.
Deacon Black Htopped tho row by
drinking another pint, nnd while tho
cup va going around Jnbez Btubbtno
run Into the house nud sold to bis
wife:
"Llnuncr. .vott come out to tho ham
In about tett minutes and you'll sec
moro fun than u boss enn draw."
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. It
went all ovor tho barn and out into
tho yard nud over tho fonco. nnd whon
Jt ended six uieu lay wbcro thoy had
fallen and slept and snored.
Jabcr, had to drtvo to town to got
blp to load them into bis wagon, and
esa by oue they were delivered, to
their homes. 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
