Ed. and Pnb Congressman Latta says Edgar Howard of the Columbus Telegram Is “a standing joke in the Third dis trict.” Even a democratic congreas man can sometimes size up a proposi tion quite correctly. .The political situation in Washing ton is getting tense. Last Friday President Taft cut official heads of Gifford Pinchot, chiet forester, and two of his assistants. It looks as if the president is getting somewhat Ballingered. Hogs sold in Chicago Jan. 7th, at $9, the highest price paid since the civil war, but once, and that was in 1882, when they reached $9.35. On the same day at Columbus, Ohio, at $9.10, and at Pittsburg, Pa., at $9.20, the highest market ever in those cities. _ —————— Can a woman hold a county office, is a question that will come before tne state supreme court on Jan. 24. The case in point is that of a Miss Gertrude Jordan of Cherry county, who was elected county treasurer, and the impolite out-going treasurer refused to hand over the keys of the office to Miss Jordan, claiming she, being a woman, was not eligible to the office. A prize hog was marketed at Sious Falls, S. D., recently that weighed 625 pounds and brought the owner the neat sum of $53.12. Wc have received on exchange the Missouri Valley, (la.) News, on which the editor's son-in.law, G. A. Phipps, is associate editor. Mr. Phipps was for some years publisher of the Cliad ron News, and later connected with two or three papers in Wyoming, and is a bright, progressive newspaper man, and the News is fortunate in securing his services. Success to George and the News is our sincere wish. We see by last week's Hemingford Journal that our brother, Cliarlss H. Burleigh, has sold that paper to Mr. Arthur E. Clark, to whom he leased the same after he returned home from his visit to us some two months’ since. Mr. Clark has been making a mighty good paper out of the Journal since he took charge and gives evidence of being the right man in the right place. Just what our brother will engage in in the future we are unable to state. Success to both incoming and outgoing editors If one were to take for granted what the telegraphic reports from Washington give forth, it would seem that President Taft had gone over body, soul and breeches to Cannon Aldrichism, and was holding off ap pointments asked for by the insur gent senators and congressman as a whip to round them back into line. But don’t you believe Taft is such a fool as that, when lie can not but hear, if he will put his ear to the ground, the rumble of an approach ing insurgent earthquake, which, unless all signs fail, will swallow the Cannon-Aldrieli crowd, or make them alter the drastic rules which gives them unlimited powers and which they seem to be using against the best interests of the people. Vouchers on file in the office of the state auditor show that Rev. Luther 1*. Ludden has been drawing a salary for work as secretary of the state normal board since the middle of the summer of 1907, despite the pro vision in the law that a member of the state normal board shall not receive any compensation beyond his actual expenses. These vouchers show that up to June 1, 1907, Rev. Mr. Ludden was receiving $10 00 a morth for his labors and that after that he was “raised” to $25 a month. More recently his salary has been raised to $400 a year.—Lincoln Even ing News. So it appears that Ludden, who has been a member of the state normal board for a number of years, and is what one might designate as a hanger-on for official crumbs, is up against the charge of grabbing salary as member and secretary of the state normal board, clearly against the “constitoochun,” so to speak. Rev. Luther claims to have been doing only what his predecessors have done. That's what the presidents pro tem of the senate and speakers of the house in our halls of legislature said, when they grabbed their $3 per diem in addition to their regular allow ance as members of the legislature, and which some few years’since was cut out by a decision handed down from the attorney general's office that it was clearly unconstitutional. And yet only one of these ex-officers ever paid it back. Wonder if Luther will? ENUMERATORS’ TEST Census Director Durand Sets February 5th as the Date Washington, D. C.—Any person of good judgment, who lias received an ordinary common school education, can readily and easily pass the test to be given applicants for Census enu merators’ places on Saturday, Feb. ■5th, the date linally set by U. S Census Director Durand, according to an announcement from the Census Bureau. This will be a comforting assurance to the several hundred thousand who are believed to be con templating application for the places. It was emphatically stated at the bureau that the test will be an emi nently reasonable and practical one, similar to that applied to applicants at the twelfth census. It will con sist of filling out a sample schedule of population from a description, in narrative form, of typical families; and, in the case of enumerators whose work will be in the rural districts, they will be called upon to fill out an additional sample schedule of agri culture, from information furnished by tbe Census Bureau. All persons, whether women or men, who may desire to become cen sus enumerators must be citizens of the United States; residents of the supervisor’s district for which they wish to be appointed; must not be less than 18 nor more than 70 years of age; must be physically able to do the work; must be trustworthy, honest and of good habits; must have at least an ordinary education and must be able to write plainly and with reasonable rapidity. Those who can comply with these requirements are invited to put in their applications, as there will be at least 68,000 enumerators’ places to be tilled by tbe middle of March in preparation for the enumeration be ginning April 15th. Application forms, with full in structions for tilling in and complete information concerning the test and the method of appointment can be secured by writing to the supervisor •f census, Jos. Pigman, Broken Bow. Nebr. All applications, properly tilled in, must be filed with the supervisors not later than Jan. 25th, as any re ceived after that date cannot be con sidered. Veterans Endorse Senator Burkett. “Whereas—The Union Veteran Re publican Club of the City of Lincoln, State of Nebraska, fully appreciating the true devotion and loyalty to the veterans of the Civil War and sol diers of the Spanish-American War, and the honorable and faithful ser vices rendered our city, state and nation, by our distinguished citizen and statesman, Honorable Elmer ,J. Burkett, our senior United States senator, Be it Resolved—That by his untir ing industry and great legislative ability, he has been able to lead the way and direct in securing legislation for the people until today lie stands in the forefront among the greatest progressive leaders and legislators in the nation. And as evidence we have but to recall a few things he has accom plished for Nebraska since he first entered congress. Senator Burkett lias secured the passage of over one hundred special pension bills for Nebraska soldiers and their widows. Altogether he has secured over 3,800 pensions, original and increase, and reissue, for deserv ing Nebraska veterans and their widows and children. He has had appropriated for the post office at Lincoln 8350,000, and negotiated a proposition whereby the city of Lincoln is in possession of one of the finest city halls and grounds in the west. Postotliee at Plattsmoutli, $50,000. Increase, postotliee grounds at Ne braska City, $10,000 Fremont postotliee, $50,000. Beatrice postotliee and other post oflice buildings, $50,000. Missouri river improvements at Nebraska City and Rulo, $250,000. Complete county service rural free delivery for his entire district when in the lower house, the first one com pleted in the United States. Secured legislation permitting In dians in Richardson county to co operate in drainage proposition. Divided Nebraska into divisions for federal court purposes, establishing federal courts at Lincoln, Norfolk, North Platte. McCook, Hastings and Grand Island. Was appointed a member of the appropriation committee in the house in his second term, and is now a member of the senate appropriations committee—the most important in congress. After a long, hard tight saved six congressmen to Nebraska in the re apportionment bill of 1901, and is the author of the bill by which members of [congress are now apportioned to the several states. He is the author of the public grazing bill. Author and ardent supporter of a bill to provide for postal savings bank and author of bill to teach agricul ture in normal schools. Senator Burkett's speech upon the irrigation bill was a significant one; so much so that Guv E. Mitchell, president of the national irrigation association, sent it broadcast over the country. When in the house he saved the government a million dollars by a single speech, which was dubbed, “Tbe Million Dollar Speech,” because it led to the redrafting of the census bill on a more economical basis. He secured the passage through the senate of bills for the drainage of the Omaha and Winnebago lands in Nebraska. He had passed through the senate a bill giving the court of claims juris diction over the claims of the Omaha Indians against the government. FOR LIBERAL PENSIONS. He has been a constant advocate of more liberal pension laws. He was the organizer of a move ment to secure a more equitable dis tribution of committee assignments in the senate, and his resolution was named as an epoch making one by the press last season. During the tariff session he secured the reduction of the duty on barbed wire from $54 to $15 per ton. He secured an amendment to the corporation tax law under which the following organizations are to be ex empt from such taxation; labor or ganizations, fraternal beneficiary soci eties, orders or associations operating under the lodge system and providing life, sick, accident or other benefits to its members, and building and loan associations. He secured the free admission of the paraphernalia of fraternal soci eties and organizations of a similar character and has won tacit recogni tion as a champion of institutions of this nature. He secured the free admission of imported breeding animals. He secured the establishment of the Dismal forest reserve in Nebraska. He has secured the establishment of rural free delivery routes in nearly evnry county in the state. He has twice secured the passage of a bill to establish a fish culture sta tion in Nebraska. He has secured an appropriation for the reconstruction of Fort Crook when it was destroyed by cyclone, the bill passing the day after the storm which destroyed the building. Has now a bill in congress asking for an appropriation of $650,000 to enlarge our present postoftice build ing in the city of Lincoln. But one of his latest and greatest achievements was in securing, thro’ the postolticeand United States treas ury department, the designation of our city as a distributing point for the storage and redistribution of gov ernment postoftice supplies for a large western territory. The great importance of this ar rangement cannot be overestimated and it but helps to demonstrate that by his alertness and energy he has justly earned for himself a second term. And all these things, coupled with his high moral character and recog nized integrity have combined to make him a worthy representative of this great and growing state, and as fellow citizens we feel to know that we have in him a becoming pride, and be it further Resolved, That as members of the Union Veteran Republican Club, hav ing confidence in the wisdom, in tegrity and patriotism of Senator Burkett, and believing that his past experience has qualified him for yet greater services to his city and state, we pledge him our hearty support.” County Supervisor Proceedings.
