Simmmi, - - Editor. l"atrrl at the Harrtsga post ofliee a we Thursday, April 9, A change in the ownership ot the At kinson E.iterjjrite occurred recently, W H. Gal k-her purcliasing the interest oJ E. E. Ragoa, and the paper will now be conducted by tlie firm of Woods & Gal leher. Success to the new firm. In tlie house when the vote was taken to pass the maximum freight bill over tlie veto, Representative Htath voted to pass it, and when the question before senate w as "shall house roll No. 12 be passed, tlie governor's veto notwilh standing," Senator Wilson voted "no. Senate file 86, the free range bill of Senator Wilson's, was lost in the shuffle and never heard of after it got. in to the bands of the sifting committee. The Texas steer rainbow which a few men have beeD cliasing iu Sioux county, thus vanishes from view and the farmers can now go ahead aud put out their crops, knowing tliat none dare molest. Nebraska is not the only state which is attempting to rid itself of the school book trust and the settlement of the text book question. A number of bills on this matter were before the legisla ture of Illinois, but the lobby of the book trust got in its work and the bills have been shelved. The time is not far distant when the states will issue the text boobs for use in the public schools. The Italian government found that it could not run a bluff on the United States in regard to the New Orleans lynching. For a few days wild rumors of war were flying thick and fast, but the firm position held by Secretary Blaine in the negotiations has called out a great deal of favorable cc roment. As soon as Italy saw it could not bulldoze the officials of this country, it became very concilatory. The attempt of tlie legislature of Illi nois to make a law which would compel men to vote, indicates that the sentiment of the public is still in the line of ad vancement. To provide a penalty for dodging the responsibility of taking part in elections is a hard matter to settle, but if a man declines to take part in the election of public officials he does not "do his whole duty as an American citizen and the time is not far distant when laws will be enacted to make a man either vote or forfeit some of his rights of citizenship. thiring the campaign last fall the World-Herald was loud in its praises of the fearlessness of Boyd and asserted that he was a man for the people. As soon as he was called upon to consider the maximum freight bill that paper be jgau ti call on the people to petition the governor to sign the bill. To outsiders that course indicated that the World Herald knew he could not be depended upon and wanted the people to take the responsibility off his shoulders, and when Boyd vetoed the bill that paper de nounced the act in strong terms, refer ring to him as "as fallen idol, a dead leader, a blasted hope." It must be ex ceedingly pleasant for that paper to swallow itself, so to speak, and it now looks as if the World-Herald contem plated following the action of Paul Van DeVoort and make a sneak into the inde pendent camp. Every bill introduced in favor of a bounty on sugar beets or sugar produced in Nebraska, was knocked out by the legislature; most of them having been killed in the house, which was almost 'entirely farmers. Such action ap pears rather peculiar. For years the cry of over-production of the staple crops of Nebraska has gone Up, end the facts sus tained the claim until last year. The sugar interests will develop an industry in which an over-production is impossi ble and every acre of land which is used "in the production of sugar would reduce the acreage of other crops and also in crease the number of consumers who do not produce those things of which there has been an over-production, and the fostering of the sugar industry could not but be of direct benefit to every farmer in tlie state. What caused the prejudice of the legislators against the sugar bounty is unknown, but the in dustry in the state is bound to develop, bounty or no bounty. The question of a county poor farm is one which comes up in every county, sooner or later. As a rule a farm of that kind pro7e to be a very good in vestment for a county. There is no county that does not have more or lean paupers to provide for. As a rule they art an expensive class for the tax payers when provided for as individuals or fam ilies, and are a constant source of pcr plexitjr and annoyance to the officials.. Risatt rtgfetto give temporary aid to paoptt ltf distress bat to pay rest and frtmrn MfpHas month after month for fwa wbahavaao prospect of batter lCecrlbarCht W to taxpayers. With a poor fill"m in " hands of a person who is und- r ivi irai t to board paupcis at a rwiHoiiable pu t per week, tlie matter is simp'itiod Ver materially. Then it pt-oj.Je an- t lr--vide for tl-iisel'.-e they can i ut t tlie pnor h.iuse w litre th- y ne'i t' t m.I fer aud vet not 1 a Vurdi-Q to t!i- tix payers, and if any jiaujers are i-i !e tc work, suitable employment fr tlm could be provided aU.ut the fan.i, pir den or house. Land can be t-urtl f r u county Kr farm at a siicill txjtii'; t. the county now, and THE Jdl KI-A". lieves the investment would prove n good one. The recent dec line in the price of sii-ar is duly appreciated by the cousuiii- is. It is estimated tiiat it will save U the piHiplc f Nebraska fcl.OOO.tKIO a your. This saving was brought alxnit throng! the reciprocal features tlie McKinky bill, which lias leen held up by some as U.y a very bad law. That is u.t all tli.it th. bill lias accomplished. Germany re ceives annually f ruin the United !st;.te about $1G,000.000 for beet stiver, but Germany did not want to allow Amt-ii can xrk to enter her markets. Tht- Mc Kinlpy bill prov;d-:s that if a foreign nation does not admit our products '.1 resident can levy a tariff ou g.ds from such country which will prac tically shut them out of the markets of the United States and the result is that Germany will h".ve to eat American pork if .she i xjiects the United Btates to sweeten up on German sugar. The legislature has adjourned but lie- fore doing so the bill for the normal school at Chadron was killed in the house. The people of C hadron made a hard light for the sc hool, but it was use less. The enterprise of the people of that place is certainly commendable, but their fate was the same as lias litvn the fate of atiout a score of towns at every session of the legislature. A state educational institution is a good thing for any town, but the general good resulting therefrom is a question that is not, as a rule, fairly weighed. The es tablishment of state normal sc hools are nn expense to the state. A person away from the city where a normal school is atcd is at no less expense while at tending one than he would be to attend any other educational institution. Would it not be better for the state to devote the same amount of money tliat is exjiended for Lonnal schools, to the establishment of higher grades in the schools of the various cities and towns throughout the state, and thus place the means of securing the benefit of an ad vanced course of education within the reach of all, without tlieir having to go to the expense of going away from home. Every session of the legislature is besieged by the people of a score of tow ns for the location of normal schools and the advisability of such institutions should be investigated. The citizens of a number of cities and towns in the state are making a strong effort to induce the railroads to run ex- ursions from the east during the com ing season, so that people of the eastern states may have an opportunity to come to Nebraska and look over the field and still not be to a f real expense. A few years ago when the railroads had a large amount of land on which they were pay ing taxes and which was bringing them no business, they offered inducements to people to come west and see the land and also made it an object for them to pur chase. If a man came to the state and bought a piece of railroad land, the amount of his transportation was de ducted from the price and other similar methods were used to secure settlers. The result was the rapid settlement of a large portion of the state. Now that but little land is held by the railroads they make little or no effort to secure new people from the east, relying al most entirely on the work of the people to get the country thickly settled. Such course looks like short sighted policy on the part of the railroads. The offi cials on this line, for instance, when ap proached on the question of better train service, simply eay tliat the business does not pay for the train service now given. Admitting that to be true, the only bnsiness-liko way to change the conditions is to got people enough here so tliat the road will pay, not only for the accommodations now afforded, but for improved service. The co-operation of the railroads with the people inter ested iu getting the country settled up and developed would lie certain to prove beneficial to the financial interests of the roads. L. E.
