With the legislature out of the way and polities in abeyance for the better part of the year, Ne braska is free to consider its ap proaching fiftieth birthday anni versary. On. March 1, 1817, less than two years hence, Nebraska will end its first half century of statehood. The state cannot af ford to let this date pass without fitting recognition. At the age of fity years a geo graphical state should begin to ac cumulate the sentiment and the vision [out of which a spiritual state is built. This birthday comes, fortunately, at a decisive period in the fortunes of Nebraska. Ne braska became a state in 1867. It was not until many years after that, twenty or thirty, according to individual opinion, that it be came certain of establishing itself ' as a great, rich state. The years of struggle for existence are now passed. Nebraska has won eco nomic freedom on the basis of an assured agriculture. The time has come to consider the future use of that freedom. The coming semi centennial presents an opportuni ty to sum up Nebraska’s achieve ments, to encourage a just state pride, and to create an enthusiasm for the great future which can be built for Nebraska. It is not too soon to be thinking of the form which the recognition of the coming date shall take. The celebration should be as broad as the state, and should be all in clusive in spirit. It should not be a mere flash of a day or a week. It should be the culmination of months of attention to the build ing of the past and future Nebras ka. Perhaps from the state uni versity, whose existence is practi cally identical with that of the state, might well come the central inspiration—from the university and its everywhere presentalumni. But all Nebraska organizations and interests should join in mak ing the semi-centennial an epitome of Nebraska’s past and present and a prophesy of its future.—State Journal. Sometimes dad says that the paper, somehow, ain't just right and does a lot of kickin’ when he reads it Thursday night. He says there ain't a dadhurned thing in it wortli while to read, and that it doesn’t print the kind of stuff that people need. He throws it in the corner and says it’s on the bum, but you’d ought to hear him holler when his weekly fails to come. He reads about the weddings and snores like all get out, and he reads the social column with a most derisive shout: he’ll read about the parties and fuss and fret and groan and say they print the paper for women folks alone. He says of information, it don't con tain a crumb—hut you d oughter hear him holler if the weekly fails to come. An then when dad goes ’way and stays a day or two, I tell you he gets riled and says what awful things he’ll do if the paper fails to mention him as be ng out of town—he almost had i notion to knock some printer lown. He never does, however, ivhen he sees one he is mum, but rou'd oughter hear him holler when his paper fails to come.— Tseeola Democrat. One of the principal causes ofi iconomic waste in the United! ■hates has been the destruction of j property by tire. Annually there is destroyed by fire in this country tin average of $250,000,000 worth of property. This is a positive, irrecoverable loss of this much actual constructed wealth. In Nebraska the annual loss has been about $2,000,000. The amount of fire losses in the state since the establishment of a state tire mar shal department in July, 1909 has been about $10,000,000. It may be claimed that this loss was covered by insurance. But when we consider that the insurance companies must be reimbursed by the policy holders it will be readily seen that the people really pay for this loss and waste. Governor Morehead has issued a proclamation designating Friday and Saturday, April 23d and 24th as “clean up days’* throughout the state. lie urges all cities, towns and country places to observe these days in cleaning up, thus safeguarding the health in in every community in which the cleaning up process takes place. The state legislature has adjourn ed. A few good laws were passed, but many issues of great im portance were overlooked. An Old Sale Bill. A sale bill printed in l’ike coun ty, Missouri, sixty-nine years ago, is a curiosity in the state archives at Kansas City. As reproduced by a local newspaper it reads: PUBLIC SALE. State of Missouri, county of Pike. To whom it may concern: The undersigned will, on Tuesday, September 29, A. D., 184b, sell at public outcry for cash, on premises where Coon creek crosses the old mission road, the following chattels, to-wit: 6 yoke of oxen with yokes and chains, 2 wagons with beds, 3 nigger wenches, 4 buck niggers, 3 nigger boys. 2 prairie plows, 25 steel traps, 1 barrel pickled cabbage, 1 hogs head tobacco, 1 lot nigger hoes, 1 spinning wheel, 1 loom, 13 fox hounds, a lot of coon, mink and skunk skins, and a lot of other ar ticles. Am gwine to Crlifornia. As an inducement for a crowd, free head cheese, apples and hard cider are a part of the bill of fare. We offer this as evidence that the world is some better than it used to be. People are not sold at pub lic auction these days only when they sell themselves.
