Unmeasured potencies for good does not He In wasting time reading the norels that are furnished by the hundred thousand by the libraries al ready established. In the aggregate, cycles of time are wasted by the mil lions who spend years In reading nor els that teach no lessons and Incite no derating thoughts. Nine-tenths of the bocks that are drawn from the public libraries already established are the merest trash. They do no: strengthen character, they do not impart useful information, they simply are a means of wasting time, in a somewhat pleas urable manner. If the Carnegie li braries only increase this evil he will hare accomplished nothing toward the deration and uplifting of the human race. In that case the many millions wrung from the toil in buruing far cares and the dark mines will be whol ly wasted. Libraries of the right sort and used for the right purposes are one of the great uplifting agencies, but as they are now conducted that can hardly be said of them. In connection with trls matter, Ja cob A. Rees prints In ute same paper a beautiful little epic iu prose on this subject In which he says: "The exciuslveness that excludes the best of human feelings is too dearly bought, We shall never understand each other till we know each other. Hence we must In some way be brought together again. But you can not make a bridge over that gap with a bank check. You must yourself be the bridge. That Is the sense of the settlement plan, which some one has called a passenger bridge upon which men and women go over, not down, from the mansion to the tenement in contrast with the old fashion of dump ing coal and groceries down upoa the poor la contemptuous discharge of brotherhood arrears. , -But since there must be second hand charity, let it take the form of something to educate something. That helps to self-help, and so stops the leak. Society has a twofold duty to ward a starving child: First, to feed It. and next to find out why it starved, and to deal with the cause. The nur sery and the kindergarten are such stop-gaps. Then there are the aged poor, who have done what they could as long as they could, and have a good claim up on society. Whether through personal effort, through organized charity which Is Just orderly charity or by any other agency, Is of less account. -My own feeling Is that the church should lead In such work, to be like Its founder, who 'went about doing good, and pointed to that when asked If He were the Christ. But if there is any light outside the church, let us have it all of It for use Inside. -I was In Muskegon, Mich., this win ter, and there saw a beautiful park, with statues of our country's great men. and a splendid public library hard by, all given by one public-spirited man. who loved his city. In the midst of It all stood a fine stone build ing, a public school, the gift, I was told, of the same maa. -That was his monument, and no bler and more enduring it was than marble or bronze. If I were a rich man and wanted to set myself a me morial In New York that would last I would build in Its most crowded dis trict an Ideal public school, in a park big enough to let in all the children of tho neighborhood, with never a sign cf 'keep off the grass;' la It bath rooms for the children and library books and club rooms of evenings. And the door of the big assembly room should swing wiue for trades union de bates and neighborhood meetings of every kind, so that it should no longer be true that: the saloon is the poor man's only club. -At oae end of such a school I would hare a kindergarten, as the right be ginning of all educatioa, aad at the other end a cooking class as the sensi ble climax of it and the proper antidote to the unwomanly antics of the Mrs. Nations with their hatchets. Then I think I should sleep sweetly at night, no matter how maay millioas I were afflicted with, feeling that I had done the best for my city and my day." With this kind of work work that has received the sanction of all the philanthropists from Christ until the present Carnegie will have nothing to do. The result of the sociological investigations of the last two decades have no iaflueace upon Carnegie. He knows nothing about them. He has been too busy la gathering In the fruits of other men's toil to have had time to learn, so he goes hU own way. The starving little children, whose condi tion his financial methods have in a large measure produced, have no place in his heart. Of the improve ment of the race by beginning with the little children, of whom Christ said, of such are the kingdom of heaven," he knows nothing, and cares nothing. Tby have no place in his plans of philanthropy. Host Encouraging Thing Editor Independeat: The most en couraging thing at the present time is the fact that so many people like your paper. You hit the nail square on the head every time. It takes me back to the old anti-slavery times. The Inde pendent Is like the Emancipator edited by Joshua Leavlt, I never did like the Liberator. It took anarchistic grounds against all civil government. It was too acreachy. It said: "The constitu tion ia a covenant with death and an agreement with hell." Leavlt, Stewart, Garret Smith and W. L. Chaplain took the ground that a consistent interpre tation of the constitution would have abolished slavery as such a decision did. Oh! but didn't Bryan curry that old hack, Grover, nicely? Hurrah for Bryan! Oae of the old humorists said: -Doa't prophesy unless you know," but I am going to do it, hit or miss. I think that the old democratic party is soon to break up as the old whig party did. If it does, the wisdom of keep ing the populist party ia line will be demonstrated. ELI AS S. GILBERT, t Weeping Water, Neb. Till Heavenly Twins It is a beautiful pair of twins that the republicans have sent to represent the state in the United States senate. The men who made the fight and se cured a republican legislature were both turned down and men never men tioned for the office before the election were selected. They fought Thomp son to the bitter end although he had more good, hard sense in his little finger than the man they gave the place had In his whole cope. They said that Thompson had never been prominent in political life, had never been seen at state conventions and it was preposterous that such a man should aspire to the office of United States senator. Then they went to Omaha and picked up a national bank er who had never been seen outside of his bank parlor, who knew so little about politics that he could not . tell how many members there were in the president's cabinet or name offhand the state officers of his own state. Be sides that, this latter heavenly twin has a peculiar record closely connected with that of one Bartley, Mosher. Out calt and other first-class rascals of the republican persuasion, some of whom are in the penitentiary, some have been there and served their time and some who escaped the mlnione of the law. The transaction began by the de posit in Mosher's bank of $180,101.75 of the school fund. The bank, its president, cashier and the set of men who held it up were all first class re publican thieves, branded with the trado mark of all their class, which read3: "Vote 'em straight." The bank went up the flume as every one knows and the $180,101.75 disappeared from view. Who got It? Deponent sayeth not. The next thing In this transaction is a document that reads as follows: Treasurer of the State cf Nebraska: Pay to J. S. Bartley .or order one hundred and eighty thousand one hun dred and one 75-100 dollars for to reim burse the state sinking-fund in ac cordance with legislative appropriation approved April 10, 1895, and charge general fund. EUGENE MOORE, Auditor Public Accounts. P. O. HEDLUND, Deputy. Countersigned: J. S. BARTLEY, State Treasurer. On the back of this document is written: "Presented and not paid for want of funds and registered for payment, April 10, 1895." Further indorsed: J. S. BARTLEY. J. H. MILLARD. This Is the first appearance of this heavenly twin and it appears from that little seed grew a seat in the United States senate for six years. The his tory goes on in the following way: Omaha National bank, J. H. Millard, president. State Depository. Warrant deposited for $180,101.75, April 10, 1895, (same day the warrant was drawn). Warrant sold to the Chemical National bank of New York. October, 1896, the Chemical National bank sent to the Omaha National bank, J. H. Millard, president, for collection. January 2, 1897, Bartley drew a check as treasurer of the state of Ne braska upon the Omaha National bank, J. H. Millard, president, which was a state depository. The check was made payable to J. H. Millard. The check was delivered to the said J. H. Millard, who presented the war ant to Bartley. The state's money to the amount named was turned over to the Chemical National bank of New York and the Exchange Bank of At kinson. The Chemical National bank asked only the collection of $180,101.75 and 6 per cent interest from April 10, 1895.. Bartley's check covered the amount of the warrant and interest- at 7 per cent. The Omaha National bank, J. H. Mil lard, president, handed over to the New York bank the 6 per cent and something over $3,000, being interest at the rate of 10 per cent, to the At kinson bank. For some time Millard held possession of the warrant and Indorsed it as in possession of the bank. Attorney General Smyth brought suit to recover and Judge Baker, a re publican judge, ordered the jury to bring In a verdict for the heavenly twin. The case is still pending in the courts. Who got that money, which, with in terest, now amounts to much over $200,000? The heavenly twin will not tell, but the republicans have sent him to the United States senate. A Heathen Idea A Japanese journal gives the Chris tian nations the following timely re primand: "There are no Christian nations. Here and there, you meet a Christian, but Christian nations there are none, never were any, and today less than ever. Loot at the events In China. There the Christian powers perpetrate crimes which make us heathens blush. These horrors are committed in the name of religion and a higher civiliza tion, -aid In the face of these cruel ties, which you commit in the name of your Savior, you dare to peal your church bells, Inviting us for prayer? Go, pdeach to the Christians, who are so much in need of being converted to a religion of reason and goodness. And when you have made of them humane beings, thet and only then come back to us." A Soldier's Life The Independent advises all those good people who voted for imperial ism, standing armies and the rule of the devil to read the following words from Chaplain Nave, U. S. A., and then take their sons to some recruiting sta tion and have them enlist in the reg ular army. "The soldier must still live In en forced celibacy, in enforced separa tion from family -Influences and the' elevating society of good women, de prived of the wholesome diversions that were a part cf his life before en tering the army. Time will drag the same as before; idleness still enters Into his life; morbid spells will con tinue to affect him; the time will still look a great way off when he can get back home and into civil life, which a large majority long for after the newness of army life has worn off; sa loons and dens of vies still surround his camp; the restlessnese of the youthful spirit still lurks within him ."We must hold to a conclusion al- No. 831 Single Buggy Harness.

Hail Insurance From the reports filed in the Insur ance Department of the state the past two years It would seem as though this class of insurance is one of the most important classes carried in the state of Nebraska. One of these hail com panies alone has paid the enormous sum of 1105,053.42 in losses during the past two seasons. No other insurance company in the state has paid such a large sum for losses as this one hall insurance company. The manage ment of this company has been more economical than is usually the case with insurance companies. Otherwise it would not have been possible to pay such a large sum for losses. While several hail insurance companies have ceased to do business the past two vears on account of not paying losses, the United Mutual Hail Insurance as sociation of Lincoln, the one above re ferred to, stands out alone with the proud record of which the officers of any insurance company could - feel proud, having paid $42,000 more for losses than was paid by all the other hail insurance companies combined in the state. We f can therefore recom mend the United Mutual of Lincoln to anyone wishing good protection to his growing crops or to any agent wishing to write hail Insurance.

After showing that natural sentiments such as sympathy, the sense of justice and resentment, cannot achieve order save in a simple embryo society, the author undertakes to set forth the en tire social-regulative system. While Mr. Spencer has treated order as if it were a matter of institutions politi cal, ecclesiastical, etc., the author shows that much regulation is outside of institutions. In his studies in pub lic opinion, suggestion, custom, per sonal ideals, social valuations and the like, Doctor Ross emphasizes the con trol that is unembodied, and for the most part unnoticed. The author treats at legnth more than a dozen dis tinct agencies that contribute to social order and appraises their relative im portance in social evolution. Discard ing the old units school; church, state he penetrates to ultimate fac tors such as law, beliefs, social relig ion, education, ceremony, art and per sonality. He locates the chief, guiding centres in society and shows under what conditions the crowd will domi nate, and under what conditions the elders, the warriors, the priests, the moneyed men, the learned, or the elite. He distinguishes beneficent class lea dership from class control, and shows the methods and fate of the latter. The practical bearings of the author's investigation are many. He explains why control relaxes or tightens, and shows that the present tendency to re lax is not ultimate, but is due to the diffusion of opportunity. The fate of religious dogmas and political theories is connected with economic changes rather than speculation. He points out the causes of class conflict and states what societies are most likely in the coming century to be exempt from this evil. Religion is assigned a distinct role, and its great transformation to day is interpreted as the decay of non social religion, and the growth of so cial religion. The author' shows the problem of government is only a part of the larger problem of order and that political science needs to be fertilized from sociology. He sets up canons by which to pass a scientific judgment opun the moral socialism of Tolstoi and the moral anarchism of Nietzsche. He shows why in democratic society the school is being given the wealth and prominence that the church en joyed in feudal society.
