To ouu friends and nil comer of tho legit
litture wo extend n cordial greotlng ntul hid
them a hearty welcome to tho givaU'st cnpl
tal city of any sinto In the union. Blnco the
limt wmlon Lincoln lias mndo wondi r.'u:

visitors readily observe and wonder nt. All
speak In glowing terms of tho city and term
It "the pride of Nebraska."

tion tho fact Iwfore, but it is now pretty gen
erally conceded thnt tho Nehruskn City ie.ss
slnco putting on It's new dress, Is ono of tho
hundhomest piers In the slate, hesider lielng
ono of the uewhlest. Iufuct tho only thing
Hint wo mii fl'id fau't with Ik that the J Yes

such pieces of atrocious verblflcation as It
has.
A lit I.I. has lieeu introduced in tl o leginl.i
turo providing that women shall bo nllowed
to vote at municipal elections. Tho Couiuku
hupu-s it wou't pass, nud iloosn't believe It
will. There aro but a few women who nre
not s-itLMled with th sex in which thoy have
been placed, and who .vish to do everything
man U allowed to. The que tlon naturally
arises, what would they howl for If suurugo
litis given themf Your true women enrew
not to outer the turmoils of olitlcs, a fact
for which wo should lw devoutly thankful.
Hon, John C. Watoon who was chosen
speaker of tho house Tuesday Is filling the
bill In a manner thoroughly creditable 'to
himself, and old Otoe has cuuso to feel prqud
of her able representative. Mr. WaUon is
clear beidod, shrewd, and ably adapted for
thU honorary position, Mug well verted In
parllamontary tactics, and hat tho proper
grit and full courage of hU convictions to
stand by all doclslons of the chair. Nebras
ka never had a bettor speaker, and vory fow
hi equal, and the state as well as the genial
John C. WaUon are to be mutually congratulated.

that tho stock now being shown at this storo

Mr. Harry Furolss, tho we' known cari
caturist on tho staff of Punch, tells tho fol
lowing anecdote, which amusingly Illustrates
Bomo of the troubles of tho harassed portrait
painter:
A man onco called upon a portrait painter
and asked him to paint his father.
"But whoro Is your fathcrf' askod ho of the
brusli.
"Oh, ho died ton yoara ago."
"Then how con I point hlmf' askod tho
artUt.
"Why," was tho reply, "I havo Just Been
your portrait of Moses. Surely, If you can
paint the portrait of n man who died thou
sands of years ago, you can rnoro easily paint
tho jwrtrnlt of my father, who lias only been
dead ten years."
Booing tho sort of man with whom ho bad
to deal, the nrtlst undertook tho work.
When tho plcturo was finished, tho nowly
blossomed ait patron wras called In to boo it.
Ho gacil at It In sllonco for somo time, bis
