Vote For the "Amendment.
The "Proposed Amendment to the
Constitution relating to .Judicial Pow
ers" should receive the vote of every
voter at Hie coming primaries, without
regard to party. The amendment was
submitted by the last Legislature by
the votes of members of all political
parties men who have investigated
the question and know the necessity
for its adoption. The proposed amend
ment was endorsed bv the Republican
and Peoples Independent parties in
their state conventions last spring and
has just been endorsed by the executive
committee of the Democratic State
Committee, after a careful consider
ation and full discussion of the ques
tion witli many intliicntial men in that
party.
That the , measure is non-partisian
and should receive the support of every
voter in the state is further established
by the following statement signed by
the chairmen of the State Committees
of the three great political parties of
the state, via:
In our hidLrement the proposed cuti
stitutioual amendment increasing in
number the judges of the Supreme
Court, which is to be voted on at the
coming primaries, is a step in the right
direction. This amendment, if adopt
ed, will enable the Court to hear and
decide all eases without the assistance
of Commissioners. The substitution
of four judges for six commissioners
will not only give the state a better
working court, but will be a great
savins of expense to lltiuants in that
court, aud hence, a great bcncllt to the
people of the state. We hope that
every voter of our respcctlvo parties
will vote for it at the coming primaries.

T. S. Allen

C. II. .Manuel
Chairman Peoples Ind'p't State Com.
The adoption of the amendment re
ferred to is of vital importance to the
people of Nebraska without regard to
party, and we hope that it may be
unanimously endorsed at the primaries.

TO BRING ORANGE TREE NORTH.
BotanliU at Work on Development of
Hardy 3peclmen.
Rotnnlsts in tho employ of tho
I'tiltcd States department of agricul
ture hope to bring Into being nn or
ange tree which will ho "as sturdy as
the apple tree; nn orange trco that
will not perish In the chill of north
ern winter, which In December will
bear Its wrcatha of snow and In May
Its garlands of bloom, and when aunt"
mcr comes will yield fruit na Rood as.
that Bweetened In tho south sun.
This may bcoju to be an unnatural
proposition, but It Only seems so. No
violence upon the laws of Nature haa
been or will bo attempted. It la
simply an effort to make the citrus
iron wlileh bears tho BWCCt tllblo Or-
angc as hardy and lnsensltlvo to cold
as the citrus tree which bears the bit
ter, unediblo orange. Ry crossing n
eitniB tree which grown in tho north
and which bears tho unediblo fruit
with tho citrus tree of tho south It Is
sought to beget a plant In which wlU
bo combined tho good trail of each.
Government botanists aro comment
that the resutls of this citrus marriage
will be n scion that will grow and fruit
at n latitude midway between tlm
northern llmlta of tho sweet and bitter
orange. If this should bo there might
be groves In central Virginia, middle
Kentucky, southern Indiana, southern
Illinois, central Missouri and central
Kansas. Think of orange groves
around tho homes in Richmond, Louis
ville, Cincinnati and Kansas City!

Prisoner's Acquittal Not Astonlshlnc
Under the Circumstances.
" 'The' Allen," said a New York poli
tician, "took a cynical vlow of man
kind. For ono thing, he did not be
lieve In tilal by Jury. Humanity, ho
would say, wns too corrupt to ndmlt of
your getting 12 good men nnd true in
a Jury box together. Then ho would
tell his ham story.
"A chap, the story ran, wns Indicted
for stealing a multitude of hams
some fiOD or 700.
"The trial came. Tho evidence
against tho chap was overwhelming.
His lawyer leaned to him and wills
pored:
"'You aro a gone gooso. Thoro Is
nothlug for mo to do,'
"Rut the prisoner smiled mid e-
piled:
rlcd rlCc prepM-cd with meat extracts
and gravies, tho various pastes from
Italy deftly cooked In the Tuscan man
ner with tomato cssenco nnd cheese,
all these foods are gaining In pnuu
lailty as the steak aud chop furore di
minishes. The sanitarian does not banish meat
from his menu, but neither does ho
make much' of It, and tho red meats
nml nm k aro rarely used. Chicken and
llsh appear to bo the least harmful
of dietetic solids, In his opinion.
The person who resolves to cut down
tho meat diet with a view to Improv
ing his general condition will bo
amnzod, the sanitarian declares, to
nnd that after a fow days he will feel
lighter, better in mind and capable of
more effort. And hot water taken In
ternally in quantity each morning upon
rising produces such enects in con
junction with a restricted diet that ono
who persists in tho treatment for u.
fow weeks will never go back to tho
old program.
Horses Made Deaf by Lightning.
An unusual Incident occurred at
Clark's CornorB, two miles north of
ConesiiB Lake, when an electrical
storm passed over the place. Tho
bam on the Rartlott farm was struck
by lightning during the night, and'
when Stephen Rartlett went to the
burn In tho morning ho found that
the post between two of the horses
stalled In tho barn was smashed to
kindling.

'not guilty.'

the prisoner's lawyer, as ho left tho
court arm In arm with his client.
'"I can,' sijld the other, with his
calm smile. 'Every man on tho Jury
