Edison says that flying machines
will carry the malls within the next

why we should fall to mend the pub-
He highways?
:o:
State Senator C. H. Aldrlch of
David City yesterday at Lincoln gave
out to the press an announcement of
his candidacy for the governorship of
Nebraska next year as a progressive
Republican.
:o:
Succei.: lve postmaster generals are
wrestling with the problem of how to
wipe out the annual postal deficit.
The one business-like and reasonable
plan of reducing to a Just and equit
able figure, the enormous and exorbi
tant rates paid the railroads for haul
ing the mall never occurs to them,
or if it docs, is banished. Instead
they evolve wild schemes such as has
recently been promulgated by the
present head of the postal depart
ment. He proposes to Increase the
rates for sending money in mull. In
stead of Increasing the revenues this
would probably reiluco them by di
verting the transmission of money to
banks and express companies. This
"reform" would doubtless he hailed
with delight by the bankers and ex
press monopoly, but It would not help
the postal deficit and would Impose
unjust burdens upon the people. The
postmaster-general had better dream
again.
:o:
"PARTY SOIJII.lRIi V."
One trouble about this plea for
"party solidarity" in support of meas
ures that are not more than half
right, Is that while It may bo possi
ble to solidify the politicians, it is
not bo easy to solidify the people. The
politicians may be induced or coerced
Into compliance with a course of ac
tion or Into support of a measure
that he knows Is wrong and a fraud
upon his constituents. Such cases
are not rare. We think wo have one
nil her conspicuous instance In this
state. Hut the Influences which some
times arc strong enough to control
the politician and the officeholder are
by no means so powerful when they
Ket to tho people, The people have
no political Jobs to lose, no trades to
make, no favors to ask of the bosses.
What the majority want goes with
Ihem, and there Is no real solidarity
except the solidarity of the majority.
There was a solidarity of tho ma
jority luiit year which elected a presi
dent and a conpross on certain gen
eral understandings and promises
with regard to a burdensome tariff.
Hut those promises and understand
ings have been violated and parly
solidarity has been so badly shatter
ed that an urgent appeal for Its res
toration Is made by the great na
tional head of the party. That ap
peal, however, has fallen, as we be
lieve, upon deaf ears. Tho only thing
that will make for party solidarity Is
party performance of party promises,
and the great head of the party gives
no assurance that that will be done.
On the contrary, he substantially
states that tho party for whose solid
arity he pleads having made one ef
fort to comply with Its promises, and
having failed, no further effort will
bo made In that direction, and he
hopes that the public will not Insist
upon It.
If he has had time In the midst of
nil the street parades and banquets
and welcome addresses, to Bay noth
ing of golf, to And out the sentiment
of the west, he must know that that
Is a vain hope. Tie cannot give the
country the Aldrlch revision of the
tariff and expect It to be satisfied,
not even at his smiling request.

TAFT ENDS HIS
RIVER VOYAGE
President Arrives at New Orleans
Ahead of Fleet.
CRESCENT CITY IN BALA DRESS.
Great Celebration Planned for HlsTwt
Days' Stay Thsra President Enoi
Trip With No Clear Idea as to
Whether Misaisslppl River Improve
ments Will Be Practicable or Not
Jackson, Miss Is Next Step.
New Orleans, Oct 80. The light
house tender Oleander, with President
Taft on board, arrived here today
ahead of the fleet, completing the last
stage of the notable voyage down the
Mississippi river. His arrival Inau
gurated a celebration which will equal
in strenuosity any that President Taft
has witnessed since the trip began ..a
month and a half ago. New Orleans
has put her best foot forward for the
entertainment of her guests with all
the pomp and ceremony of old time
southern hospitality. The city Is In
gala dres3. ,
The boats carrying the twenty-five
governors, the 177 congressmen and
the host of deep waterway boosters
stuck closer than usual and the run
from Natchez to this city was made
without chartering a single special
train.
Undecided as to Improvements.
The president ended his Mississippi
river trip with no clear idea whether
the improvements in the r.iver will be
practicable or not.
'"There are some of us," said he
"that are most willing to be con
vincod and yet are still somewhat
doubtful as to the method that ought
to be pursued and as to the policy
that ought to be undertaken in the
Improvement of this waterway. That
it ought to be Improved, I think the
most of those on this trip sjneerely
believe, but the question of what shall
be done to make It most useful to
serve the purpose that we all have In
mind' 13 one that I wish I could have
more clearly In mind."
The thing that stands out strongee
jn the Taft trip down the river Is the
president's persistent badgering ol
"Uncle Joe" Cannon. Uncle Joe
ducked and dodged, but the president
drove him into an open declaration oi
waterways. The speaker has made it
pluln that he Is opposed to Mr. Taffs
plan of issuing bonds for improve
ments.
Taft Third Best Banqueter.
Some people have the Idea that Mr.
Taft thinks he Is the bravest and best
banqueter In the country. Not so
He takes his hat off to former Govern
or Francis of Missouri and to William
J. Bryan. Mr. Taft said that back in
the St. Iouis exposition days he found
Francis to be a man of Iron const.ltu
tlon, who in presiding over the expo
sition lived a life for six months that
would have killed the ordinary man.
"In tho last sixty days," said the
president, "I have been trying to emu
late him and it the Lord will stand by
me in the next few days I shall be
content to have followed along after
him In his efforts to show how well
directed energy can continue 175 days
and bo associated with a consumption
of food' ten times a day. There is only
ono man In the country besides Rroth
er Francis to whom I bow, and that
is my distinguished opponent In the
late election. I claim to be third in
that galaxy of physical tests."
At a luncheon on the Kansas City
boat the president turned from the
Mississippi to the Missouri river.
"The Missour.l," said he, "Is even
harder to tackle than the Mississippi
and if you surmount the difficulties and
vagaries of that stream, as I doubt
not you will, you will establish the
primacy of Kansas City."
RICH HERMIT DIES IN HOVEL
Edward Lempke Dies of Hunger and
Exposure Near Webster City.
Webster City, la., Oct. 30. Edward
Lempke, an nged and rich hermit, who
has lived in a IJttle shack in the tim
ber east of this city for forty years:
was found in his hovel dead. He had
probably been doad two weeks. Death,
apparently, was caused by actual star
vation and' exposure. The old man
was seventy-eight years of age and
worth many thousands.
Wills His Rescuer $200,000.
Denver, Oct. 30. It has Just be
come known that Charles W. Bennett,
a wealthy man of Blnghamton, N. Y.,
who died recently, willed $200,000 to J.
W. Casey of this city as a reward for
saving his life thirty years ago.
Casey Is the proprietor of a laundry
here.. Casey and' Bennett were school
chums In Blnghamton. The former,
who was an expert swimmer, rescued
Bennett from drowning. Bennett then
told his companion that he would ever
remember hjs heroic act
Making War on Squirrels.
Wymore, Neb., Oct 3 The open
season on squirrels Is being made the
most of by farmers and otLers In this
vicinity. The animals have become so
numerous that they are doing consid
erable damage In corn fields. One
farmer living two miles west of town,
on Indian creek, says that he has
killed sixty-four squirrels at one of
his corn cribs since the season opened
and' that they appear to be as thick

A RUSH OF BUSINESS.
It Came Jutt at the Time He WantH
to Sell His Place.
One of the leading men of Louisville.
reported to be one of the richest, got a
bad start in business. He began by
being a photographer, but found that
the business didn't come up lo expec
tations. He therefore wisely decided
to sell out and start at something else.
He finally Interested some people In
the proposition and appointed a time
when they should come and look things
over.
lie now has the reputation of being
shrewd, and that this Is not a com
pllmentary designation only Is Indi
cated by what happened then. He In
serted an advertisement In the dally
papers In small enough type not to at
tract everybody's attention and yet
conspicuously enough to win consid
eration from those who make a point
of looking for bargains, announcing
that on a certain day be would take
pictures free of charge. By a coin
cidence the day he set was th day
when the prospective purchasers of
his business were to be there.
The ad., as usual paid, and that
afternoon his gallery was crowded
with visitors. They thronged in and
out and he could not take care of
them rapidly enough, even :wltli the
aid of several assistants. When the
folks he Intended to do business with
came he greeted them with a crown
of disappointment, explaining that he
was simply so busy that he couldn't
see them then and asked them to come
back in the morning, when things
would likely have slackened up. They
agreed and went away duly impressed.
I!e sold out to them next day. and it
is perhaps superfluous to add that he
got. more for bis outfit than he would
have done If it hadn't been for th
modest little advertisement. Louisville

HOW INSECTS BREATHE.
System of Tubes That Run the Length
of Their Bodies.
Landlubber animals have lungs, and
sea creatures have gills. But insects
have neither one nor the other. They
have n complex system of tubes run
ning throughout th whole length of
the body by means of which air Is con
veyed to every part of the system. As
they are destined to contain nothing
but air. they are strongly supported to
guard against collapse from pressure.
This support Is furnished by means
of a fine thread running spirally with
in the wails of the tube, much In the
same way that a garden hose is pro
teeted with wire. There are generally
two of these tubes which run the
whole length of the Insect's hotly.
Many flies, as larvae, live in the wa
ter. Arranged along each side of their
bodies Is a series of exceedingly thin
plates, into each of which runs a se
ries of blood vessels. These plates act
and absorb the oxygen contained In
the water. The tail ends in three
fenther-like protections. By means of
these the larva causes currents of wa
ter to flow over the gills, and thus their
efficiency Is increased.
The gnat also lives In the water as
a larva. But It has no gills: there
fore it cannot breathe the oxygen In
the water, but must breathe air. This
Is done by inonns of a splcade situated
at the tip of Its tall. Indeed, the tail
Is prolonged Into a little tube. The
larva floats along bead downward in
the water with this tube Just above
the surface to enable It to breathe.
After some time it is provided with
two little tubes, which net in the same
manner. Chicago Tribune.
Breaking Them to the Yoke.
Edward Lisle, whose "Observations
on Husbandry" was published In 175".
described the method employed by his
"oxhlnd" or cattleman to break cattle
to the yoke: "He yoked two of the
steers, being two yearlings, together
and so suffered them to walk about
the ground where there were no pits
or ditches for them to receive hurt by.
He also tied together the bushy parts
of their tails, the reason of which was
because they should not be able to
turn their heads to ench other so as
to strike one another with their horns
or by bending their necks too much by
endeavoring to face one another and
then striving breuk their necks." In
this condition the oxhlnd let them go
on the ground. If without holes or
ditches, all night or else turned them
Into nn empty open barn so yoked and
thus treated them two or three times
before he worked them.

TALL AFRICAN GRASS.
Beautiful Scenes at Night on the Veldt
When Fire Spreads.
Unlike a good deal of South Africa.
Rhodesia is largely wooded. In some
places the forests are of value, but a
large proportion Is nor valued for Its
timber. The grass in this part of
Africa grows to a phenomenal height
In the valleys, and especially iu the
valleys of the Sahi and Zambezi rivers
it reac hes Its greatest height. To say
that the grass Is often twelve feet high
Is no exaggeration. Naturally It Is
very easy to lose one's way In this
grass If one Is unfortunate enough to
stray from the beaten trac k, it Is the
custom there to burn this grass off
each year when it gets dry. This Is
usually in August and September or
even in Oc tober. Tires bum for miles,
and as the country Is largely a wilder
ness little damage is done by this
method of destroying the grass. It Is
a beautiful sight nt night In the lire
season to see the hills for miles around
encircled with flames.
After the grass has been burned the
rainy season usually begins, and It is
then that the country Is at its prettiest.
The grass Is then green, and the foli
age on the trees is beautiful. The old
leaves drop off gradually, and the new
ones tuke their place before the trees
are bare. The new leaves are of nil
shades of the rainbow, and It Is much
like the fall scenery In this country
when the dead leaves are falling from
the trees. Waterfalls are numerous In
the mountains, and there are many of
great height, although the rivers ar
usually small In voliime.-Sprlngfleld

' The Winze.
The superintendent of a western
mine in driving a tunnel struck a
body or ore. The vein was vertical
and had a sharp dip. To develop It
and get ready to mine the ore it was
necessary to put down a winze that is
to say. to sink a shaft, In this Instance
an Incline.
Elated over the discovery, he tele
graphed the bonrd In the east that he
had struck rich shipping ore nnd re
ceived the laconic reply to begin ship
ping at once.
He wired that be could not ship any
ore until he had a winze on the vein.
"How much will a winze cost?" was
the telegraphic query.
"One thousand dollars," he replied
promptly.
The next query, floored him. It
read. "Can't you buy a secondhand
winze cheaper?" New York Post.
A Joke of Mark Twain's.
Probably few people nre aware that
the theatrical godfather of that famous
actor Mr. William Gillette was Mark
Twain, who was a fellow townsman
and a friend of his father. Mark
Twain In referring to the matter said
that when he used his influence to get
young Gillette on the stage be thought
he was playing a great Joke on the
management, for he did not think Gil
lette had the slightest aptitude for act
ing. But It turned nut to be no joke
after all. "I don't know." said Mark
Twain, "which I like better-having
Gillette make s tremendous success or
seeing one of my Jokes go wrong."
