Entered at the Loup City Postolllce for trims
mission through the malls us second
class matter.
Let us start a new crusade in Ne
braska. “Reform” has been the
tocsin in our stale for the past twel
ve years, and while the movement
has shown very little direct benefit
if any, yet we must acknowledge
that the indirect effects have augured
well and renovated a nutnbci of Au
gean sheds to the great credit of our
state, so let us give tlie move
ment what credit it deserves. It was
started to give scope to superanuat
ed politicians, and to divert the elec
toral vote of Nebraska from the
Republican party, both of which it
accomplshed for a time. Rut the
Bugstocknm principles which it fed
upon reflected the true inwardness
of its founders and the good nun
who had been gathered in by itsglit
terings, and wbo gave the party re
spectability, soon began dropping
out and have done so to such an ex
tent that the organization seems only
to be imact in a few rural counties
where the people dislike to again
take the name of democracy. Hut
there is work for a crusade in this
state which should be taken up by
the Hepublicans and carried to a
successful issue. We refer to the
farming out of the convict labor at
our state penitentiary to contractors
who put in competition goods of the
kind that benefit the bone and sinue
of our Ntate, the farmer, but very
little, when there might he set in
motion institutions of a kind that
would be of immense benefit to our
farmers who are the back hone of
our prosperity, that would crush out
exorbitance where it is most needed
to be done and the profit on our
convict labor would be saved to the
men who pay the taxes.
A few years ago the state of Kan
sas erected a binder twine plant in
connection with their penitentiary
and this year put 1,250,000 lbs. of
twine in competition with the trust
twine which compelled tile trust
to lower their price 2£ cents per
pound and saved #100,000 to the
farmers of that state. The contract
ors make a good profit or would cot
lease the labor, then why can’t the j
state do likewise. Let us add a lit- j
tie wholesome socialism to our pub- j
lie business and see if we can't bene
fit ourselves by the change.
The first sub-marine torpedo boat
to lie finished under the contract let
for suyen by this government and
built after the patern of the Holland
was launched on the 13, inst at Eli
zabethtown, New Jersey, and will be ;

The returns of the school election
Monday for school Dist., No. 1, show i
that ye senior editor was chosen a mem- i

cept ttie position and will qualify, but
in so doing will say tiiat we do so with
no intention of trying to please anv one j
in particular, but to please every body
if the carrying out of our honest cot.- j
elusions will accomplish that desire, j
Of course we do not expect to please
all hut believe that w*o can come nearer j
to it by working for the general good
of the schools regardless of special fa
voritism for any one. Suggestions from
those interested in school matters will
receive careful consideration, and our
final action on al! questions will be taken
only upon mature deliberation.

I’KXSACOLA.
San Francisco, June i*», 1001.
Dsak Parents: I received youi
welcome letter and was glad to heal
from home and friends once more.
I received the fountain pen and
Mama's picture and think them very
nice. 1 am quite well except my
eyes which bother me some, 1 may
have to send for my glasses yet. 1
suppose the fruit is getting well ripe
at home. I had shore lilierty to day
and had a very nice time. I went
over San Francisco, as far as my
time would permit. The pavements
in Frisco are generally rough. Fruit
is cheap, oranges g.je a doz , peach
es 10 and apprieots two doz., for a
nickel. The tire engines was out,
just came in from a lire while we
were there. They arc nickel plated
and are grand. We saw a number
of little Japanese kids about two
feet high running around. At four
o’clock I and three friends went
aboard the Iowa and examined it all
through. It beats all I saw to-day.
I was down to the bottom in the lire
rooms and met a fellow there by the
name of Blackman. lie said he
used to live in Loup City, he is a
fireman on the Iowa. That vessel
carries 4 twelve inch, 8 eight inch
and a lot of smaller guns. Admiral
Casey is on this vessel, w* were in
his quarters and you bet it is a swell
place. The guns and machinery are
polished every day and shine like
the sun. The Oregon, Iowa and
Wisconsin are all in the harbor.
The Oregon w ill go into dry do k.
W e saw the Columbia, one of our
leading merchant ships On Friday
list a number ot landsmen got shore
liberty over to the city and they all
came back except live, and on Sat
urday when we were iu the city ‘Bid’
and l saw two of them. They had
overalls ami blue jacks and white
caps on and their uniforms rolled in
paper and under their arm. They
had plenty of money and bought
tickets across the ferry to Oakland.
They had •jumped’ and were on their
way to New York City and were anx
ious to get away as three others had
just been caught on a merchant ves
sel just when ready to sail. Sunday
is a long day to me. We had tur
key pie and fruit for dinner but the
turkey did not taste anything like
that we used to have at home. 1 am
going to church to-night, was there
this afternoon and a great number
attended from Frisco again to day.
Next time I get shore liberty I am
going to Golden Gate park, l want
to see the Cliff bouse. ‘Bid’ and I
still have charge of the school room.
Chief Master At Arms, McKelbt
savs he does not have to stay and
see that we do our work ns is the
case in some departments. We have
the smallest boy here that there is in
the navy. He weighs 8.5 lbs. and is
4ft. 9$ inches tall. He is a smart
little fellow but looks awful small in
his blues. I understand the name
bv which we go under now, U. S
Training Ship Pensacola, will soon
be dropped and we will be known as
the U. S. Training SquadroD, then 1
will send you mv ribbon with the
Pensacola on. Well I will close for
this time. Good by to all.
