Editor Wealth Makis:
Dgab Stir. Your editorial on the pres
ent condition and future needs of our
State University la timely. It is certain,
ly a most extraordinary state of affairs
that exists at that institution today
Nebraska has just cause to be proud of
the appreciation of high educational
advantages evinced by the present phe
nomenal attendance at the highest insti
tution of learning the state affords; but
she has no special ground forpride in the

Editor Bee:-la the Chicago papers it is
reported that the Republican committee
Is paying $75.00 a day for two col
umns of the World-Herald.
If that be true it strikes me as reckless
expenditure of railroad money. 2o a
day would have done it.
Thirty shekels was a big sum for pur
chasable manhood (?) two thousand
years ago. Seventy-five American shekels
a day for ten days is a munificent sum to
pay for the betrayal of an editor by hie
newspaper (?) manager.
If political rakes with a five cent tales
factory are worth $75 a day to Tom

accommodations in the way of build

be hoped that the coming legislature will
'take away our reproach in the partic
ular. There is an impression abroad that thl
Independents of the state are not in favor
of fostering our educational institutions.
From a personal acquaintance with
many of our leaders, I have no hesitancy
in saying that this impression m entirely
erroneous. The cause of the people has
nothing to fear from higher education.
Our economic principles are found in the
last analysis to be scientifically correct,
and we believe in "turning on the light."
The people have suffered, not from two
much, but from too little, education, and
not at the hands of scholarly but of half
educated men. A narrow, distorted, one
sided education makes egotists, whose
object and aim in life is acquisition and
self-aggrandizement, and that generally
regardless of the means used; while a
thorough education that develops the
whole man harmoniously, morally (or
spiritually) as well as intellectually
and physically, gives higher conceptions
of success iii life than that which is to be
gained as a reward for political trickery
aud corruption, and treachery to the
oeoole.

live in the pure atmosphere of a higher
education. Such people cannot be en
slaved and are the world's redeemers and
liberators. Our best educated men and
women are today occupying the fore-
rfont in the battle for social, industrial
and religious reforms, and the denuncia
tion aud misrepresentation of a subsidiz
ed press and palsied pulpit cannot re
strain them nor neutralize their iuflu-euce.
The people of the state of Nebraska
have witnessed so much wanton, not to
say criminal, waste of the public funds
that an extreme reaction need cause no
surprise. But unwise, indiscriminate
stinting Is not economy. What the
people of the state demand is tnnt tne
people's money be judiciously expended,
and that the educational, reform ana
benevolent institutions of the state be
amolv provided for.

Rights of Capital
Some fifteen years ago I wrote au arti
cle for the Chicago Express wherein I
took the ground there was no such thing
as "rights of capital." For centuries po
litical economists have been vainly try
ing to settle what rights of capital is.
Today the problem is as unsettled as
when the discussion commenced.
What is capital, where does it come
from, who is in possession of it, and
who should possess it? are questions to
be determined. In the production of
capital God Almighty and labor are part
ners. God furnishes raw material in the
shape of land, timber, mines, light, air,
rain, sunshine, etc., and labor tans tne
raw material and works it up into forms
for human wants, and that joint product
is capital. Then of right, who should
own that capital. Clearly the labor that
produced it, God of his own gracionsness
waivintc all claim to the proauct wnerever
industry and skill changes the form of
the raw material to capital. Just here
so-called rights of capital steps in and
levies tribute on industry in God s stead,

An Honorable Little Scotchman.
A story of Scotch honesty comes
from Dundee. A small boy had taken
the prize for an exceptionally well
drawn map. After the examination,
the teacher, a little doubtful, asked
the lad, "Who helped you with this
map, James?" "Nobody, sir." "Come
now, tell me the truth. Didn't your
brother help you?" "No, sir; he did

keted and unmarketable product comes
in, caned ny capitansrs - overprouuu
tiou," but which is really "underconsump
tion." And why? For tne apparent
reason that industry is unable to buy in
the market what it produced by labor.
Use for money adds price to product,
profit in exchange adds price to product,
but adds nothing to wages of labor. It
follows, when these three additions are
made to price, with no corresponding ad
dition to wages, proauct is ieic uncou
sumed, because labor cannot buy $ I cash
with 33 cents, neither can it buy $1
worth of product with 83 cents it gets
for producing that $1 worth. Land is a
free gift of God to all his children alike.
Hence tribute for its use is oiaspnemy.
Money is a creaubn of society, therefore
it is a "public institution." If a public
institution why should it be prostituted
to private gain? Exchange is a puouc
function, as illustrated in our mail ser
vice, and should be done by tne puonc
for the public at what it costs the public
to do it. The profit system, then, is also
a usurpation. This trinity oi usurpa
tions gets fully two-thirds of labor's
product. This is theft, pure and simple.
For, as seen, God and labor being part-
ners, having producea aii.snouia oi rigm
own all. Labor neither possesses its own
product ndr an equivalent for it, there
fore its product has been stolen from it.
What follows? Why, this: SoUed
"rights of capital" is only another name
for "wrongs to labor." Rights of capi
tal and wrongs to labor are synonymous.
Do you say capital has rights? Has an
inanimate thing rights? Nonsense. Yet
such nonsense taught, believed, and
acted on causes labor to be a beggar
amid the abundance it has created.
When so-called rights of capital is killed
then, and not till then, will labor have
its rights that is, to own all it produces,
no more, no less. Then justice will have
come; not till then. W. T. Wallace in

Patience of a Spider.
A certain Bright Eyes, looking at a
spider's web one day, saw a leaf drop
on it. The spider was hidinor in his
nest, but he felt the leaf the instant
it touched the nest. By degrees he
got courage to go and look at it, and
as Boon as he knew that it was some
thing that was not g ood to eat and
had no business there he began to
cut the threads all around it When
the last one was broken the leaf drop
ped by its own weight. Then the
busy worker began spinning, to re
place the lost threads, and soon the
web was whole, as before.
'Wonder lr ne a ao that over
again?" thought Bright Eyes, 'drop
ping in another leaf. The spider went
directly to work and did not stop
until that leaf was gone and the web
again mended. A third leaf was
treated in exactly the same- way, and
then Bright Eyes decided that that
spider had had enough to do. A new
web was selected and a leaf placed
on it, with the same results, and
Bright eyes could not help wondering
how long a spider's patience would
hold out. There is little doubt, how

The Jumping Merrythought.
When the turkey has been duly
served, and nothing is left but a pile
of bones, pick out the "merry
thought," the bone which is often
called the wishbone. Stretch across
the bone a double string, and twist
the string around a piece of stick
which just reaches to the top of the
bone. On this point place a bit of
soft pitch, or any very sticky sub
stance strong enough to grip the end
of the stick; then place the "merry
thought on the table, and when the
twisted string has overcome the re
sistance of the pitch the bone will

HILL'S POUTOAL HISTORY OF THE
UNITED STATES.
By Thomas E. Hill.
This is a large octavo book of 450 pages, condensed by tabulation
into a small book that it may be universally sold and circulated at a
low price.
t Its purpose is to clearly present, in a manner entirely non-partisan,
the merit attaching to each party. No partiality is shown in behalf
of any political organization. Like the dictionary, it simply defines.
It gives the best-known argument in favor of each, and leaves the
reader free to choose which he will serve.
It treats upon the important live issues 6f the time, and is an indis
pensable work to people who would intelligently discuss the political
situation. It is a very exhaustive compendium of Political Facts,
and literally answers thousands of questions. To illustrate:
