"The reason why some people get

The HtUo girl's father had beei.

His memory must have grown dim In
the child's mind. One nfternoon, when

saw a little child run by to a man be

little girl turned to her mother nnd
remarked In n sorrowful tone, "Once

STATE WEALTH GROWS
IN LAST FIVE YEARS
ASSESSMENT RECORDS SHOW
INCREASE OF 10 PER CENT
NEWS FROM STATE CAPITAL
Menu of Varied Interest Gathered
from Reliable Sources
at the State
House
Comparative assessment figures for
Nobraska covering tho last flvo years,
ns compiled by Secretary nornocker
of tho state board of equalization,
show a steady lucroaso In tho valu
ation of all property In tho stato,
amounting to $68,000,000 on tho basis
of ono-flfth actual value, or $340,000,
000 roal worth. Tho stato's assess
ment In 1913 was $470,690,000, whllo
this year it standB nt $528,891,000.
Farm lands nnd other real estate
show somo gain in values, but tho big
Incrcnso Is that shown on live stock.
Cattle, listed In 1913 nt an actual
value of $29.70 aptoco for animals of
all ages and sizes, aro now assessed
at an average of $40.40 each. Hogs
havo Jumped from $10.15 uctual val
ue, in tho formor yoar, to $15.80 in
1917. Sheep nro now counted rv3
worth $5.60 npleco, compared with
$3.50 in 1913.
Duo to tho passago of the Ostermau
act forbidding banks and trust coin
panios to deduct thoir real estate
mortgages from capital stock In mak
ing assessment returns, tho tnxablo
valuation of banks this year Is $S,
581,000, where only $7,176,000 was re
turned in 1913. Tho actual values of
thoso items nro tho real Incronse of
this item Is about $7,000,000.
Money on deposit mado n material
gain In tho nssossfnent tables, having
grown from $5,025,000 in 1913 to $8,
561,000 this year.
Automobiles foil off in their as
sessed valuation from $S9.70 In tho
formor yoar to $64.36 the present an
num, but tho number of them was
quadrupled and tho gross assessment
Is raised from $2,112,000 to $6,579,000.
Noxt year will show almost a 50 por
cent Increase In the 1917 figures on
automobiles.
Wheat, oats and corn, of course,
have greatly increased In value, but
tho shrinkage In wheat stocks which
occurred last winter and spring partly
nullified this gain. About 25,000,000
bushels of corn was assessed In 1913,
and virtually tho same amount this
year, but only $1,927,000 while now it
Is $4,596,000.
Tho railroads have not had" any ma
terial Increase In their assessment
during the five-year period. Asldo
from a raise of $1,000,000 last year,
their valuation has remained prac
tically stationary, whllo most other
property was being Increased. Thoy
are assessed for this year at $56,
855,000. Society Secures Historic Relic
Tho stato historical socloty Is soon

press prior to his purchase of It In
Missouri. Secretary Sheldon of the
state historical society is making an
effort to trace the history of the old
relic.
Wheat Growers Getting Uneasy
The farmers of the wheat country of
western Nebraska have grown Impa
tient over the failure of requests mado
to the state railway commission and
the state council of defense for aid
In getting thoir grain to market, and
have changed to a domand for assist
ance. Potltlons have been filed with both
bodies In which it is sot up that con
dltlons have grown Intolerable, and
that If the farmers are to respond to
tho call to raise more wheat a way
must bo found by which their prosent
crop can be moved to market and tho
money therefor received by them.
Nobraska attorneys are going to

Thoro Is no official report as to tho

Inheritance tar on sharos of Ne

not of blood kinship to the testator is
to be computed as a lump, and not

tho state law on that subject Is con
strued by the attorney general's of

contaRC ot tax applies uniformly on
the whole estate, and Is not n gradu

The effect of this ruling, if upheld
by the courts, will bo to Insure a con
siderably larger revenuo from Inheri

EZRA AND NEHEMIAH TEACH
THE LAW.
LKSSON TEXT-Nohomlnh 8:1, 4, 6, 6,
8-12. Hrnil entire clmptor.
QOI.DKN TKXT-Thy word Is a lamp
unto my feet, nnd a light unto my path.
Ts. 119:1(6.
The first day of the seventh month
(8:2) wn nhont October 441 11. C.
Sceii days feast (vv. 15-18) was tho
feast itf the Tabernacles beginning
the inth of the seventh month (Octo
ber) and continuing for seven or
eight days (Lev. 'J!!). Nchemlnh was
the governor; Ezra the scribe, chief
priest; and Artaxcrxes, Icing of Per
Bla, ruler over Palestine. It would be
Interesting to look up the sudden In
terjection of Ezra's niiino Into this
discourse; nlso the special reasons for
teaching the Bible. There Is In this
chapter n record of u full week and
of tho dally events of that week.
I. The Preparation. Oo buck to
verse 70 of he preceding chapter, nnd
you will find' that the temple had Just
been receiving some large gifts. Tho
tnsk of finishing tho wall was nlso
completed, till of which gives point to
verse one, where It says that the peo
ple gathered themselves together as
ono num. This was nn ancient open
air meeting, ono we do well to study.
Tho people requested Ezra to "bring
tho book." It needed no catch-penny
operations to draw the crowd togeth
er. The writer of Nchemlnh calls tho
book "tho law which the Lord hath
commanded unto Moses." (See v. 1
cf. v. 14.) This, of courso, would In
clude Leviticus, Numbers, nnd Deuter
onomy, nn Indication ns to the Mosaic
I authorship of the Pcntntcuch, which Is
In line with the statement that. Testis
j Christ made that It was God who had
written It ns no had commanded
Moses. It was not n mob; there wns
organization nnd equipment. (See v.
8 and 4.) The Bible was also rend so
that the people could understand It
(v. 2) ; certainly something that Is In
demand In our present day. Ezra
opened the hook In the sight of nil tho
people, for ho stood on nn elevation
nbovo them (v. 5) nnd rend "dis
tinctly." II. The Reading of the Word. Thoy
read tho book, not from some com
mentary or quarterly, though theso
hnve vnlue In their place. The read
ing begnn with reverence. Reverence
for but not n worship of tho book.
The Bible Is not n fetish or n charm
against sickness or accident. Tlio
verse "cnused the people to under
stand the law," (v. 7) probably means
thnt Is wns translated Into tho vqr
nacular, the language of the common
people. While God's word Is n plain
book nnd easy to read, nevertheless
men of spiritual understanding nro
needed to "rightly divide" It unto tho
people (v. 7). Ilowever, the great In
terpreter of the Bible given by tho Fa
ther Is the Holy Spirit himself (John
10:12-15; I John 2:20-27). ffhls
method of beginning the study of tho
word and Its continuance ns presented
In these verses Is a good suggestion
for modern Sunday school workers.
III. The Hearing of the Word. (vv.
0-17). As Ezra and Nchemlnh and
their associates nnd Levltes taught
the people, there was a five-fold result.
First: There was conviction and
mourning. The word of God always
convicts of sin, but the people were
told not to mourn over the past, nor
were they to weep, for all the people
'wept tr. 9). When men hear the
words of the law there will be con
viction of sin. (See Eph. 0:7; Heb.
4:12.) Weeping may aot. however, be
conviction (2 Cor. 7A0). Weeping
weaken, but that was not designed,
rather the exhilaration of Joy. More
over, they were to seek the refresh
ment of food nnd drink. Indeed, the
joy of the Lord was to be their
strength (v. 10). "And there wns very
great gladness" (v. 17). In verso 11
we are told that tho Levltes exhorted
the people to hold their peace, thnt
tho day wns holy nnd that they should
be grieved. To this the people re
sponded (v. 12), nnd mado great mirth,
becauso they had understood tho dec
laration of the word of the Lord, No
tice that joy and gladness came after
'obedience, also thnt Nchemtah, tho
governor, hnd n part In tho teaching.
It Is a great thing for any people when
their civil rulers nro genuine, Intelli
gent, nnd spiritual leaders. Tho peo
ple were Instructed to show their grati
tude ns well ns their piety by remem
bering "thoso for whom nothing hnd
been prepured" (v. 10). Tho fourth
result was peace (v. 11) tho peace
of right relation with Ood (Rom. 6:
t; Phil 4:7).
