Just uow every one Is looking for

Fourteen Commercial Club repte
BCDtHtives from all parts of the United
i?tatcs were miosis of Omaha last
Sunday. The gentlemen who are
members of the executive committee
of the Chamber of Commerce of the
United Slates, were enthusiastic over
Nebraska and Omaha.
We note the fact that Cecil Mutt
hews, of the Klverlon Hevlew, is on
the program for an Bddrcss at 11 fare
well dinner to be teudeicd H. L. Met
calfe ut Lincoln this evening. No, we
aie not jealous, but how plain it
bringiTback the old proverb: "Tis
hard to keep a good liian down."
One hundred ten eutrles have been
received for the National Clay Courts
tenuis championships, which open at
the Field Club grounds in Omaha,
July SI, This exceeds former years by
twenty per cent. In the list are
twenty Nebraska players, the best in
the state, and representing various
localities. The Nebraska lads .will
have the work cut out for them, how
ever, as the pick of the United .Statts
is represented.
Few couutles In the state can show
a greater yield of wheat per acre thnn
Webster county. Webster county is
far up towards the top this year. Mr.
Llppeucott's wheat threshed out u
little better than thirty tour bushels
per acre, Mr. Piatt's yielded nearly
tbirtyone and others have twenty six
to twenty eight bushels. When we
take Into consideration that the aver
age yield in Uie state is under twenty
bushels we will sec the splendid posi
tlon of our own county.
Nothwlthstandlng'tW fact that we
hav had-along dry Upcttrcf cXtietnely
hot weather corn has withstood the
unusual conditions lu a remarkable
manner aud.if it good rain comes this
week the corn cicjj will be excellent.
The crop conditions speak high pialse
for the scientific manner with which
our fanuer6 ate conducting their busi
ness. Had the methods of twenty
years ago beeu persued this year there
is little doubt but what 10)3 would go
down into history as a failure. As it
is we ulrendy have excellent wheat,
one large crop of alfalfa and in some
instances two good ones, the potatoes
are of excellent quality and a good
yield.
With the Thirty-Flrst Triennial
Conclave of the Unlled States but four
weeks off, arrangements are practical
ly complete for handling the big gath
ering. Denver Is usually well pro.
tided with Urst class rooming houses
and hotels ami many of these have
been leased outright by the larger
commauderies of Knights Templar for
the week. The decorations alone
being placed for the conclave, which
work has already begun, will cost
150,000. Fifty-four bauds, including
Creator's world famous musical organ.

A newly married couple and a frleud
were traveling by train, when they
were suddenly plunged into the diuk
ness of a tunnel. There was no light
in the car and when they abruptly re
turned to daylight the bride and the
bridegroom were caught kissing fur
tively. The frieud was embarrassed
and he said the first thing that came
Into his head. "That ah that tut.
uel cost two million dolars." The
brldegiooiu uooded his head wisely,
"Well," he said judicially, "it wus
w oi tli It."
The meeting held Tuesday after
noon in the Chamber of Commerce
rooms showed conclusively that the
stock holders of the chautauqua asso
ciation weic iu favor of pushing this
year's meeting with energy and mak
ing it the best ever held iu the city
The oilkcrs called the meeting becuuse
they wished the stock holders to know
the true conditions. It seems that
the committee has purchased the most
expensive talent ever provided for u
Chautauqua here and they desired to
know whether or not their actions
would meet with the approval of the
association. vfter some discussion a
vote was taken and the association ex
pressed its approval of tbe.-actUwjof
the committee.
This we think is a wise move. We
cuuuot have talent that is too good
for this community ami the better the',
progiam me lurgeriue crow us wuicu
.will Insuie, u tluauciul success. AVe
have tuken hold of this foiin of enter
taiumeul anil instruction and the Chief
believes that we should keep it up uud
make it better and better as the years
go by. The program selected this year
is ery strong and of a character thai-
will not only give us intellectual ud
vuncement but it will also give us ma
terial fiuunclal aid. The Corn man
lloweu will be worth thousands of
dollars to this community alone. We
believe in keeping the good work go-
lug and wo believe iu giving the very
best that can be secured We aie
very much pleased at the disposition
of the stock holders to continue even
lu the face of a possible deficit but
with such attractions as we will otter
this year there ought not to be any de
ficit. The following is taken fiout the
tiles of the Chief of September IU, 1U12.
"The second meeting of the Men's
Kducatioual Association was held iu
the school house last Thursday night.
The subject under discussion was ''The
changes that may be made to muke
our Chautauqua more of a success".
Amoug other things the following
were suggested:
First there should be no permanent
platform mauager, but a new muuager
should be appointed for each day,
who should give his services for noth
ing. This would permit an additional
one hundred dollars to be appropriat
ed for talent, mere slioulu ue one
day devoted to the discussion of sub
jects of a purely agricultural nature.
There should be one duy devoted to
home talent, musical, readiug, orator
ial Including the school children
Prof. MorlU, with the help of Miss
Coon, was asked to give this matter
consideration, so that the school chil
dren of the entire county should have
a day to look forward to iu connection
with the Chautauqua program."

Bureau of Markets
A number of practical farmers have
been discussing the project for a
bureau of markets. The problem of
selling and distributing farm products
has received very little attention in
Nebraska. A careful study of the sub
ject would mean much cash for the
farmers.
