Loup City Northwestern GEO. E. BENSCHOTER, Ed. and Pub. LOUP CITY, - - NEBRASKA. It’s the early spring bird that catches cold. The man who proposes to cross the Sahara desert in a balloon has sand. Renewed health to Ian Maclaren of Drumtochty. We really couldn’t spare him. It isn't at all likely, however, that the empress dowager will consent to stay dead. Mr. Rockefeller has given $100,000 to the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A.—ten sec onds’ income. Things that seem serious to you might look funny if they happened to someone else. It is rumored that Miss Thaw of Pittsburg has melted the icy heart of the Earl of Yarmouth. John W. Gates talking of retiring? He has never yet shown himself to be of a retiring disposition. Probably those French explorers will find the south pole fully as coy and evasive as the north pole. Discretion is not exactly a brilllat t or fascinating characteristic, but it is most indispensable to success. The discovery of gold in Indiana has not affected the price of rings, so far as we have been able to find out. And now Mexico puts in a claim. Venezuela seems to be the Mme. Hum bert of the international money mar ket. A Kansas editor printed an elabo rate notice of “Calomel,” meaning "Camille.” Probably it affected him that way. If Edward Atkinson succeeds in his experiments toward making cheap fuel out of mud the coal dealer's name will be the same. Now that a veteran Yankee whaling captain is to make a dash for the pole amateur contestants may as well pull out of the race. Still, if you run out of breakfast food and the grocery store is closed, there is always a chance to fall back on ham and eggs. Some people seem to get a great deal of solace and satisfaction out ot moralizing over Mr, Rockefeller's dyspepsia and insomnia. Automobilists who will race through a foot of suow would prob ably want to keep right on scorch ing if the earth were buried under soft soap. In Utah drug stores are allowed tc sell not more than five gallons of li quor at a time. Those who are real thirsty, however, can go hack a sec ond time. The St. Louis girl to whom a re jected suitor has left a bequest of $35, 000 is more than ever impressed with the usefulness of the old adage. "Learn to say ‘No.’ ” A Chicago milk dealer has given up his business because he has become converted. Evidently he didn't put water enough in the milk to wash away his sins. , A Baltimore specialist comes to the front with the declaration that all Americans are neurotics. Well, who wouldn't prefer being neurotic to be ing an oyster? China commenced to coin money long before any of the other nations thought of the idea. The trouble within China is that she didn’t coin enough of it. A New York playwright assaulted au editor for calling hlin “Gussie.’ It is to be hoped that the editor will now concede that the playwright has asserted his manhood. For consistency’s sake the enthu siast who wants "manywhere’’ lncor porated Into the language should ad vocate it in all ways and at all times —manyhow and many when, so to speak. While looking for the causes of the divorce evil which Cardinal Gibbons so properly deplores some attcntioi at least should be paid to the causa live factors contributed by the reck less marriages. When little Prince George of Waler was baptized the other day he yelled like a young wild cat and seemed t< be half scared to death. Royalty ha to grow on a person, like whiskers and some other thines. The market editor says that nine tenths of the lobsters packed In Can ada are shipped to Europe. From the United Statc3 only the mott selec lobsters, such as William Waldon Aster, go to the European market. The London Lancet has issued a Eolemn warning a;ainst the insidiou American quick lunch, which threat ens to invade the British metropolis. There seems to be a fear that our quick lunch will finish what stomach the railway buffet has left the or pressed Britisher. NOW ANOTHER SCARE JNE ALARM IS SUCCEEDED QY ANOTHER. Ten Years Ago We Were Frightened by Coxey’s Army of Tramps; To-day V/a Are Worrying Eecause the Country Is Too Prosperous. The Des Moines Capital, a Repub lican newspaper that is edited with marked ability and forcefulness, has performed a public service of value in printing a review and contrast of the conditions prevailing from 1893 to 1897, Under Cleveland and tariff re form, and from 1897 to 1903, under Republican rule and tariff protection. The picture is vividly drawn and the contrasts effectively brought out. Aft er reciting with much detail the hor rors of the panic period, beginning ten years ago, promptly upon the elec tion of a free-trade administration and congress, and pausing long enough to describe with much dramatic force the terrible march of Coxey’s tramps, the story comes down to the present period of unparalleled prosperity, when all labor is profitably employed at the highest wage rate ever known, and when the accumulation of wealth among all classes, poor as well as rich, is going forward at a rate hitherto unrecorded in the w'orld’s history. Right at this point comes the moral of the tale, and a striking moral it is. From great depression ve have changed to great buoyancy, from great poverty to great riches, from great want to great abundance. All this has happened and it is with us to-day. That which alarmed and terrified us from ’93 to ’97 alarms us no more. But a new alarm has risen. As the Capital well says: "The alarm of poverty which some people thought endangered the repub lic was out of the way scarcely three years until the alarm of riches came into view. "And now we are where people have again lost their heads. There are those who look out of the upper win dows and once more look upon the tragedy which they think will end this free republic. Sensation mongers on the stump and iu congress have caught the popular ear and are in the center of the stage. They are playing to packed houses, in fact, to standing room only. The demagogue is shak ing his mane.” True it is, singuarly, sadly, shame fully true, that under the spell of the sensation mongers in congress and on the stump, in governors’ chairs and editorial sanctums, in the columns of newspapers professedly conducted in the interests of prosperity and peace, the alarm has changed. We are no longer afraid of poverty. That danger has been removed, at least for a time. We are now afraid of being too rich! So wre are told that to guard against this new peril we must rip up things, tear them wide open, upset our laws and systems that have brought us from the abyss of want and suffering up to the very pinnacle of plenty and prosperity! That is the situation to day. and in no part of the country is the condition more marked than iu the state in which the Des Moines Capital is printed and circulated. Surely it was time to tell this story, time to point this moral, time to call back to their senses this great Ameri can people who are now listening too intently to what tho demagogues and sensation mongers are shouting. Time to call a halt, time to have some sense! Protection for All. The American Free-Trade league has recently held a meeting in Bos ton and again adopted resolutions de manding that the duties on certain articles, among them beef, be re moved. This is the usual routine of the Free-Trade league, which is al ways demanding the removal of duties from articles which are not produced by the people of their own vicinity. The Free-Trade league is largely com posed of New England people, and it is a notable fact that they are always ready to demand the removal of duties on articles produced in some other section of the country, and entirely overlook the shoe pegs and wooden nutmegs and other articles produced by the manufacturers of New England. There is only one thing to the credit of these free-trades—they do not at tempt to masquerade as tariff "re formers.” To be consistent, the members of this free-trade association should de mand the repeal or abolition of all protective duties and take In the man ufactures of New England as well as the raw materials of the West. If the duty is to be abolished on the cattle that come in competition with the products of the Western ranges it should be abolished on the boots and shoes manufactured in New England from their hides. If the free-traders and “reformers" of New England would have free wool for their manu factures, they should also demand that 1 the duty be taken from manufactured j woolen goods, and that the cheap Ger j man and English and French fabrics ! be allowed to come in and compete I with their own manufacturers. — Helena (Mont.) Record. A Fight Insldn the Party. In the Washington correspondence of the New York Evening Post it is stated that: j “Senator Burton (Rep., Kan.) looks lor a bitter struggle within the ranks of tlie Republican party ‘between pro tection and reciprocity,’ as he states It. He says that the old idea of reciprocity was an exchange of non competitive products, but that the present Idea la to use reciprocity as a means for trimming the protect! 70 tariff. He does not believe that the Republican party will consent to the trimming of its magnificent protective system, oven if undertaken under rny such fair-sounding word as reciprocity, hut ho sees in the rising tide in the Northwest something which must be driven back and fought out by the Re publican party. Closely in line with his views is the resolution recently adopted at the annual meeting of The American Protective Tariff League.” Senator Burton looks the situation squarely in the face and sees it as it is. This time the issue is not be tween parties, it is inside of the Re publican party. It is not Democrats, but Republicans which have to bo fought. A singular condition, truly. What brought it about? Too much prosperiety, coupled with chasing after foreign trade. Incidentally there was, we believe, something heard about “solemn obligations,” “national honor,” “relief,” etc., but those are things of the past. They were bogus, any how, and did not last long. But the fight inside the Republican party is not bogus. It is the real thing. REPEAL OF COAL DUTIES. How the Matter Is Regarded on the Pacific Coast. The attack upon the coal duties is ciamorous and concerted. The tempo rary coal famine in various parts of the country has been seized upon by the so-called tariff reformers, dis guised free-traders, as affording an ex cellent opportunity to make a breach In the wall of protection by bringing about the removal of a duty which is not in the interests of any one save the coal producers and coal miners of the state of Washington. The coal duty is a matter of indifference to coal operators In the East. Their ad vantages are such they will always remain unaffected by any foreign com petition. With us it is different The duty on coal Is the sustaining prop to an Industry which directly affords support to 5,000 men in this state, and industry to probably as many more. We have here to meet a competition such as no other protected industry of the United States has to encounter. The vessels which come to the Pacific coast from Great Britain or Australia bring coai in lieu of ballast, and the freight charge upon such coal Is mere ly nominal. The lowering of the duty to 40 cents, under the Wilson-Gorman law, resulted In nearly doubling the amount of British aud Australian coal which entered the markets of the Pa cific. Every ton of this foreign coal, so entering, displaced a ton of Wash ington coal, and to that extent de prived Washington miners of employ ment. No industry in the United States suffered so severely from the lowering of duties under the Demo cratic tariff bill as did the coal mining industry of Washington, and yet the Democratic tariff bill still left a duty of 4'> cents upon imported coal. Now it Is proposed to take off every cent of this protection; to wipe the profit of foreign shipowners and at the expense of the people of Washington. —Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Experiment in Hot Air. The Result. Fine Political Economy. In an address before the Inter national Customs Congress Secretary Show expressed a sound and import ant truth when he said: "There is no greater blessing to any people than a high-priced labor. The commercial importance of a country is measured by the consumptive capacity of its people, and annual income Is the test of consumptive capacity, and annual income is determined by the standard of wages.” An excellent doctrine admirably stated. For more than five years the United States has continuously ex hibited the tremendous volume of high priced labor fully employed. It Is to keep labor prices high and provido the maximum of enployment that our present economic system is intended. When the republic does its own work there will always fo an abundance of work and at high ) fires. Result: Pros perity for everybody. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. LESSON X.. MARCH 8; ACTS 19: 13 30—PAUL AT EPHESUS. Golden Text—"The Name of the Lord JesL‘3 Wsb Magnified"—Acts 19:17— The Third Missionary Jcarncy of the Great Disciple. I. Ephesus, where raul Preached more ihan In any other Place.—Ephesus was situated on the rtv'er Cayster. which flews into the Icarlan sea, an arm of the Aeglan. The city was not only the cap ital of the Homan province of Asia, but was the city of the greatest importance in all Asia Minor, and the principal em porium of trade In the East. It was the . center of the worship of Diana, to whom a magnificent temple was built in Ephe sus aided by other cities, and especially by Croesus. II. Throe Months with the Jews; In their Synagogue.—Vs. 8, 9. Paul’s labors. For three months Paul with great fear lessness preached the gospel to the Jews. Hi suits. (1) Some were converted, (2) Some were hardened, outspoken oppos ers. Even Paul could not bring every ona to the truth, or make every one like him. Opposition. 9. "Divers” (some) "were hardened, spake evil of that way.” K. V. "the Way,” the gospel as a way of salva tion. of true living. If men will not change their lives, they will try to oppose the teaching that commands them to change. They try to make it out as bad, in order that It may not reprove them, or disturb their consciences. III. Two Years in the School of Ty rannus,—Vs. 9-12. When the preaching oi the gospel in the synagogue could no longer be a message of peace, but aroused such bitter opposition that the service be came a wrangle and controversy, Paul ceased preaching there, and removed with the Christians to the school or leeturo room of Tyrannus. Paul's Work at Ephe sus. Because of the unusual circum stances. God worked extraordinary mir aides through Paul. In Ephesus, the cen ter of magic and witchcraft, special pow er was given Paul to work miracles that conquered them in their own stronghold. He actually did what the sorcerers only pretended to do. He made a collection for the poor In Jerusalem, thus binding the two sections of the church together (I Cor. 16:1-4). IV. The Exorcists and the Demoniac. Vs. 13-17. 13 “Then certain of the vaga bond Jews.” “There were, as heathen writers tell us, numbers of these Jews in various parts of the world, who wan dered about trading on the credulity of men, professing to be magicians, and practicing the exorcism of evil spirits. "Exorcists," hence, those who adjure by certain formulas demons to come out of a man. "To call over them." etc. They would use the name of Jesus as a charm. 14. “Seven sons of one Soeva . . . and chief of the priests,” not high priests, but a leading priest among those at Ephe sus ” "Which did so.” That Is, attempted to practice exorcism by the name of Je- ; sus. 16. "And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them.” With that .power, more than natural, so often dis- j played by madmen. "Nhked and wound- j ed..rhe first word does not necessarily imply more than that the outer garment or cloak was torn off from them, and that they were left with nothing but the short tunic."—Plumptre. 17. "And fear fell on them all.” Fear, a religious awe. They were afraid to misuse the name of Jesus. The Gospel Overcoming Opposing Pow ers. Moses anil Aaron before Pharaoh proved that their God was above all heathen gods by doing real wonders where they did pretended ones, anil great er wonders than they ever dreamed of doing. So the religion of Christ Is prov ing its superiority over all forms of in fidelity and heathenism to-day by the greater and more blessed work It does. The map of the world to-ilay is the proof of the beneficent power of Christianity. V. The Triumphs of the Gospel at Ephesus.—Vs. 17-20. 1. “The name of the Lord Jesus was magnified,” as a real power for healing and salvation, not a charm or magical power. The real glory of Jesus shone in clearer light, and made an impression on the whole city. 2. Great numti“rs believed (v. IS), were convinced that Jesus was their Savior, and decided to follow him, and became his disciples. The church at Ephe sus became one of the most Inlluential churches of the early days. 3. They "confessed." Open confession is one of the surest signs of a changed heart and Hfe. 19. "Many of them,” referring to those who had been magicians previous to their conversion, "as the former verse refers to their dupes.” "Which used curious arts.” The curious arts were magic, jug glery. and ail such practices as make pretense to supernatural agency. “Brought their books together.” These books were no doubt, parchment or pa pyrus volumes, filled with partly Jewish, partly heathenish incantations, recipes for love philters, formulas more or less ancient to be used in casting out evil spirits, and the like. "And burned them before all men." a public renunciation. Note that they did not sell them for oth ers to use. They destroyed the evil ut their own cost. 20. "So mightily grew" (Imp.), and con tinued to grow, "the word of God,” in the hearts of men, both ns to intensity of power and Increase of numbers. "And prevailed,” had strength to overcome, all obstacles; and there were many in Ephe sus. Practical Suggestions. 1. Among the worst things in the world are bad books. The sooner they are burned the better. 2. When any one is converted to Christ he must leave behind him all bad busi ness and bad habits, whatever the cost may be. If ho is not willing to do this, he proves himself to he no Christian. The only question will be. What is right? not, What It will cost? The Spirit of Sacrifice. “This is the spirit which offers precious things, sim ply because they are precious, not as be ing necessary to the building, but as an offering and sacrifice of what >s to our selves desirable, in the Eevltical sacrifice, ! costliness was generally a condition of the icceptableness of the sacrifice. That cost inoss must be as acceptable condition in 'll human offerings at ail times,—an ex ternal sign of their love and obedience, i ind surrender of themselves and theirs j o his will. II Is not tlie church wr want, iut the sacrifice; not the emotion of ad miration. but tlie act of adoration: not he gift, hut the giving." -John Ituskin, i n Seven Lamps of Architecture. Love. The spirit of love, wherever, it is. is | its own blessing and happiness, be I cause it is the truth and reality cf God I in the soul; and, therefore, is in the amo joy of life, and is the same good to itself everywhere and on every oc casion. Would you know the blessing ! of all blessings? It is thin God of j love dwelling in your soul and killing | ovory root of bitterness, which is '.ho oain and torment of every earthly self ish love. For all wants are satisfied, ill disorders of nature are removed; svery day is a day of peace. CHECKS CLEARED BY ’PHONS Novel Scheme Is Practiced In the “Prosperity Belt.” “Down In the ‘Prosperity belt,* aa we call B, we’ve got the whole world beat for real progress,” sail a coun try banker who was in the city last week. After delivering thin declara tion he bit the end of a cigar and set tled back in a chair In a lobby of one of the big hotels. “Yes, slree, we beat the world for genuine progress,” he continued. "We’ve got something down in central Illinois that you won’t find anywhere else on the globe. It’s telephone clearing-house. We call it a clear ing-house right here in Chicago or In New York. Now you’d think banks couldn’t clear their checks by tele phone, but, as 'I said before, we beat tne world for progress and have in vented the new system. "The whole scheme is very simple and has proved a safeguard against some of the bugaboos that worry bankers—such things as overdrafts, for instance. Every day at noon one bank will call up another by tele phone, read off the amount of the cheeks and the names of the drawers. Some of these checks will bi on the bank at the other end of the wire and some ot them will be drawn on an in stitution with which that bank has considerable business. “Now, you see, half a dozen or more banks in one county or section of the state can arrange a certain time for calling up some one bank, which Is the central bank. All the banks call this one, notifying it they have checks on it or upon any of the others. “When each bank has found oui how much It owes the other banks up until a certain hour drafts are for warded to cover the balances. By using the telephone clearing-house we expedite business, saving an entire day in many instances. It’s a paying scheme and Is pretty nkely to be adopted by other groups of country banks wherever the telephone Is in general use.”—Chicago Inter Ocean. GEN. BOOTH A VEGETARIAN. ! Salvation Army Leader Will Not Cat Meat. Few people are aware that Gen. Booth, head and founder of the Salva tion Army, who recently visited this I city, is a pronounced vegetarian. Jn | years he has eaten neither fish, flesh ' nor eggs, says the Cincinnati Com mercial-Tribune. Even butter, milk j or vegetables cooked with fat are de nied. His diet is solely upon cereals, boiled rice being largely his susten ance. He occasionally eats rice for breakfast, dinner and supper, and then enters upon the same diet the next day. A member of the army said recent ly: "Gen. Booth believes in his body. Yet meats and strong drinks he heart ily despises. He will not smoke, be cause he realizes that he has a nerv ous system that must be protected. He will not drink, partly from principle and partly because he realizes that for every stimulation there is an equal and consequent reaction. He is a vegetarian not merely because he be lieves that primitive mankind—the Adam and Eve of the Bible—were vegetarians, but because, after a long practical trial, he finds himself far younger than his years, while the mor tal parts of most men, who laugh at what they call his crankiness, are like John Brown's body—"a-mouldering in the grave.” Realizing Country's Greatness. Ex-Representative P. J. McDonald, who served for three years in the House, returned the other day from a six week’s trip throughout the coun try, in company with M. C. Keefe. “You really don’t know what this country is until you look it over,” says Mr. McDonald. “We were gone six weeks and went through every state in the Union, cov ering something like 13,000 miles in all. Talk about the recent visits of royal and other personages, who make a flying trip across the country! What can they know about it? “Why, nothing or next to it. The only way to see the country and the people is to take things leisurely, as we did. In some cities we would spend two or three days. The two or three days gave us an opportunity to meet and exchange ideas. “Yes, sir, this is a great country—a wonderful country!”—Boston Journal. Love Triumphant. Helen's Ups are drifting dust; Ilion Is consumed with rust; All the galleons of Greece Drink the ocean’s dreamless peace; Lost was Solomon's purple show Restless centuries ago; Empires died and left no strain— Babylon, Barbary, and Spain Only one thing, undefaced, Lasts, though all the worlds lie waste.

(h* luricer in Western l'an«<’» Achieve# Wonderful Sucre**. One of the first things that the man who wishes to change his residence* endeavors to find out is where he can go and succeed. It need be a matter of little doubt or indecision now. Dur ing the past four or five years the de velopment of Western Canada has been so rapid, and the conditions of life there so widely known, that up wards of 100,000 Americans have taken up their homes there, and the experi ence of these people is that they are thoroughly satisfied with their choice of home. The methods of farming there are similar to those adopted in the United States, but the operations are simpler, the yield of grain greater and the profits more satisfactory. Ranching is carried on with lots of success. Mixed farming Is always profitable, while the results in grain-raising are as certain as splendid soil, excellent climate and lots of sunlight can give. The yields of-, but nothing is as satisfactory as the experience of tho farmer himself, and extracts are se lected from one. A good, intelligent farmer named Mears, John Mears to be exact, left Cavalier county. North Dakota, two years ago and followed the thousands who had already gone to Canada. He had twenty-five years’ experience In Minnesota. In buying grain, Including flax, but In all his experience he never saw a district so well suited to the growth of flax as Western Canada. The financial results of Mr. Mears’ operations In a single season are aa | follows: Wheat, 3,000 bushels, 1 hard, | at 67V4c, $1,785; 2,680 bushels 1 North* ; ern, at 64c, $1,457.20; Oats, 1,750 bush* ' els, at 35c, $612.50; Speltz, 154 bush els, at 75c, $115.50; Flax, 324 bushels, at $2. $628, Total, $4,598.20. a return of more than $4,500 from a little over 250 acres, an average of $18 per acre. Is surely testimony sufficiently strong to satisfy the most incredulous as to the money to be made out of the soil of the Canadian West. It is to facts like these—arguments expressible and demonstrable in dollars and cents— that the steady northward movement of American farmers is due. Mr. Mears is settled near Areola, Assa. A number of Americans who have chosen Western Canada as a homo had the idea that a man enjoyed less freedom in Canada, but they soon found their mistake, and say the laws of Canada are the most liberal in the world, and such as prevent the litiga tion which breeds so much bad feel ing between people in the United States and costs them so dear In law yers’ fees.
