The brewers of the state have an nounced their intention of lighting the new law forbidding their owner ship of saloon property in the higher courts. Wonder if Lancaster county has not finally got enough of McKesson? Joe Burns is bad enough, but he's sweet scented by the side of pretty boy McKesson. Referee Post has decided there is no lumber trust in Nebraska, whereat Attorney General Thompson has filed a bill of objections to the report of the referee post. Senator Burkett says what a great many of us feel, that Roosevelt must be renominated for the presidency by the republican party. Nothing is now wanting to do that except Roose velt's consent. In Indiana last week the Standard Oil Co. was found guilty <x rebating and made liable to fines aggregating nearly thirty millions of dollars. If the Rocky-fellers have to pay that it will necessitate another fraction of a cent raise in oil, eh? The Harriman - Hill - Rockefeller combine to buy up the country in opposition to Rooseveltism fixes the price at live million dollars, eh? The late Nebraska legislature would have been difficult material for them to work on. don’t you think? Snow and a forty-mile gale at Chicago, eight feet of snow in Mich igan, a blizzard throughout Wisconsin and fruit prospects killed in Missouri and Kansas, are some of the results of the weather last Friday in those benighted countries. Stand up for Nebraska. J udging by the late explosion of the Kearney Hub over the loss of the normal appropriation, there will be more gubernatorial foot washers of the Hub variety who will find the hero they worshiped during the cam paign is just an ordinary mortal in stead of an immaculate deity. Iowa has passed a very stringent anti-pass law, differing from that passed in Nebraska, practically pro hibiting the giving of passes to any body except bona fide employes. The lawyers and doctors In the Iowa senate fought hard to save to them selves an exception, but failed to win out. In this regard Nebraska did better by them. A most dismal wail comes from the Kearney Hub, because, forsooth, the governor saw fit to daaw his pen through the appropriation made by the last legislature of $85,000 for the benefit of the Kearney State Normal. The Hub was one of the papers that lauded Sheldon to the skies during the campaign as one of the greatest! Now it finds the governor is pig headed. inconsistent, a man of wealth given him by his people, a sort of an aristocrat, incapable of understanding matters of interest to the common 1 people and the possessor of ‘‘the evil genius of the intolerant and the in tolerable ego." And the Hub man only found it out after the governor had in the interests of state economy swiped Kearney and the normal out of a nice little plum of $85,000. What a difference it makes whose ox is gored. The Farmers Co-Opera Live Shipping Association, operating numerous ele vators in Kansas, Oklahoma and Ne braska, on April 4 decided to wind up its affairs and quit the grain business. The company had a good line of ele vators in the country, its own selling offices at Kansas City, and at one time had a splendid manager. Its books showed at the annual meeting that the expenses of doing business, such as handling the grain and selling it, made necessary a margin between the price paid the grower of the grain and the price realized in the terminal market. This knowledge made the farmers lukewarm in their support, reasoning that by selling grain to independent dealers whose margin of protit was no more they escaped the liability of loss through ownership of an interest in the co-operative con cern, which was on an unsafe basis through admitted lack of capital. It Is said to be *72,000 behind. v Rockville Items. Mr. Holcomb spent Sunday at E. F. Gray's. Willard Lay and wife drove down to Boelus Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Wineteer drove to Boelus Saturday. Ed.

Aurora, Mo., April 11,1907—Editor Northwestern: I thought I would write a few lines to let you know that I am still living. I arrived in Aurora March 8th, and found things quite different to Nebraska. The trees were budding, the grass was green and cattle were making their own living, except milch cows. This is not a farming country like Nebraska. The farmers sow a little fall wheat, also a small patch of oats and from five to twenty-five acres of corn. They do not husk their corn, but snap it and haul most of it to town- In the spring they cut stove wood and sell it to buy feed for their teams. On Saturday afternoons one wlil see a great many lvadsoi" stove wood on the street, ar.d in the evening the farmers take home a sack of corn and a bale of hay. This is a great fruit and mining country. All kinds of fruit does wel. here. The fruit trees are loaded with fruit, apples, peaches, pears, plums, cherries, blackberries, raspberries, strawberrieshuckleberries and wild fruits till you can't rest, while there are hickory nuts, pecans, hazelnuts, chestnuts, persimmons, paw-paws, etc., too numerous to mention. White clover is coming in bloom, blue grass is heading and red clover is from four to eight inches high, wild gmss is as far along as it is in Nebraska by the 1st of June. This is a nice country to live in and the farmers don't yvork as hard as they do in Nebraska, or keep as much stock, from two to six head of cattle and one brood, sow being about all, except a teair. I think it is a tine place to raise hogs, as grass and clover grow everywhere. It would take less than half the corn it does the Nebras ka farmer to put his hogs on the market. Well, I guess I have written enough for this time. Yours truly, Thokab Bmmnr. ROAD NOTICE.
