wonder If any of the slnneit of that

We notice that the lloaid of Kduea
tlon linn elected a man by the name of
Wren to till the chair of Agrieultuie
lately vacated by Mr. Doehr, on the
theory, wo presume, that It IhUh it
bear or a bird to propel ly maliitaiu
that branch of our school activities.
The nest legislature should enact u
law forbidding1 piddlers fiotn plying
lhelr trade in the Mate of Nebraska.
Or ir poi milled these people should
pay a llcuiuc for legitimate trading
tin d nil otheis should bo absolutely
barred. Many of these peddleis use
underhand methods in extracting
money fiom the pockets of our poople
.and the people should lie protected.
We notice that there has been ngoml
- -ideal of cleaning-lip going on around
lawn tho past week but much remains
jet to be done. Thero are n number
of vacant lotsnnd several streets which
.have weeds more than five feet high
and these should be cut down. We
started the year right let us continue
and develop n civic pride that will

Jn Sunday's State-Journal Is an ac

Special Notice To

We wish to announce Hint we aie

simple mixture of biicktborn bark,

This remedy, used successfully for
appendicitis, is the most THOMOUUH

powerful that ONE SPOONFUL re

Slnee the state puiehnscd an execu
tive mansion for the govenioi's iesl
deuce, some til ".ears ago, It has been
tho rule of each legislature to appro.
print imI liberal sum for upkeep of tho
mansion. Governor Moiehead vetoed
this appropilatlor. two years ago and
none was made this year. He has
steadfastly icfuetl to accept any "per
milslfcs of oilhViiiul lives In lliesame
demociatlc way that he lived In Kails
City prior to becoming chief executive
of Nebraska, Klch and poor alike are
wolcoiuo at the exccutlvo mansion,
and neither the governor nor Ills
family "put on airs." They llvo 11 quiet
wholesome, dimocrntlo and christian
lifo, which has dune much to endear
them to the eople.
Administration of the new auto

State Charlis V. Pool Is dcvelonlnu
Homo Interesting possibilities. Each
automobile owner is ri-quiicd to pay
an annual license fee of S3 00 to the
treasuierof liis county. Thhty-flve
cents of this comes to the state tieas
urer for use of the Secretary of State's
automobile department, and tho secre
tary Is required to issue a llconso to
the owner and supply him with a
number plate. Seerotary Pool esti
mates that In ItilO he will need nt least
TO.uoo number plates for the year's
licenses. At present lie buys plates of
11 Chicago concern, because no Ne
braska institution seems nble to pio
duc them. In view of next yeai's
needs, Mr. Pool has asked Hon. Henry
Gerdes, one of the board of commis
sioners for state institutions, If it is
not possible for the stntc penitentiary
to put in a small enameling plant,
punch pi esses, dies, etc., and make
the number plates'. Mr. Gerdes was
delighted with the idea and will pre
sent it to bis board for careful con
sideration. "The proof of the pudding," runs an
old adage, "is in chewing the string."
Whether this be true is of small im
portance, but it is important for the
people of Nebraska to know just bow
well they nre served by their clioseu
public olllelnls. When the dully papers
announced that the .1 line school appor
tionment is awBy over tour hundred
thousand dollars, Hint might not menu
much of auvthinir to manv. because
therr'Jiis- nothing with which to teakc
comparison. Hut a ditVerent ligbft is
