TEMPERANCE COLUMN
Conducted bv the McCook W C T- U
It Was a Lightning Convention
K lightning convention at which
ae hundred lady delegates spoke at
ole rate of one speaker per minute
ntet in Glasgow Scotland June 3 10
Tro hundred and thirty women from
the United States crossed the At
Santic Ocean to attend it and other
women came from long distances
from Australia New Zealand India
Egypt Madagascar Syria South Af
rica Japan China Korea Norway
Sweden Holland Germany Switzer
land Canada England and Scotland
The great audiences completely filled
the different places of meeting The
Town Hall the John Street United
Free church and St Andrews hall
On June 5 one hundred and twenty-five
pulpits in Glasgow were filled
by the delegates Surely on that day
gospel temperance had its say
Probably the most picturesque
meeting of the convention was the
childrens demonstration Several
thousand children marched in proces
sion to the town hall flying banners
and accompanied by bands of bagpip
ers and fifers in Highland garb In
the hall there was a chorus of five
hundred children to lead in the sing
ing and when all in the hall were
The children vociferously cheered
those who addressed them All of
which recalled the saying Tremble
King Alcohol we shall grow up
Another picturesnue session of the
convention was the evening devoted
to the young peoples branch usually
spoken of as the Ys There was
a large chorus of young ladies ac
companied by twenty five or more
joung lady violinist The speeches
made by young ladies among whom
as Lady Dorothy Howard the
daughter of the Countess of Carlisle
She said she rejoiced in the fact
that her mother had from her child
hood given her a temperance train
ing A superb white satin banner
was awarded to the Ys of Japan
for having the largest proportion of
increase in membership during the
last three years
The last session of the evening wa
novel and most interesting One
hundred speeches of one minute each
were made by one hundred women
Mere are a few samples Why dont
you shut up the liquor instead of
shutting up my husband asked a
soman in New Zealand who was ac
companying a policeman taking her
hasband to jail American Saloon
was the sign I saw in large letters on
a saloon in Naples Looking in I sav
two barmaids and I said in a low
voice It is not so we do not have
6armaids in American saloons and
aiay we never have them And may
ihey soon disappear from saloons in
very pait of the vorld Another
Toman said I am here to tell you
that Scotland is going dry At
this there was a burst of vociferous
laughter and much applause
The convention stood for prohibi
tion of the manufacture and sale of
alcoholic liquor for beverage purpose
ti e enfranchisement of the women of
a nations as measure to suppress
the liquo traffic cod reform as a pre
ventive and cue or inebriety active
opposition agaiiut all forms of State
or municipal regulation of vice the
recognition of an equal standard of
morality for man and woman the
White Slave Traffic to be changed to
include colored races peace and ar
b tration instead of war campaigns o
education for temperance
A special resolution was passed
against the sale of opium and intoxi
cants to native races Also a resolu
tion was passed asking that the con
ference of nations at the Hague use
its influence to induce Great Britain
to release opium treaties with China
and thus make it possible for the
Chinese to liberate their country from
the opium curse
Another special resolution Avas pas
sed pledging loyalty to the observance
of Worlds Temperance Sunday on th
date named by the International Les
son Committee
The holding of the great conven
tion should be a decided benefit to
Glasgow for out of it should come
uplift for the drunken women who
are to be seen standing on street cor
ners in idle listless attitudes ragg
ed and forlorn and whose cries are
to be heard in the streets at all hour
of the night Some of the delegates
of the convention held meetings
among them and quite a number were
desirous of giving up drink The
W C T U of Glasgow is working
bravely for these women and the con
vention will bring them much re
enforcement
The officers elected by the con
vention were president the Countess
of Carlisle vice president Mrs Lilia
M N Stevens of the United States
secretaries Miss Agnes B Stack and

be represented by counsel in hearings
It forbids a railroad from lowering its
rates to drive out water competition
aud afterward raising them except by
permission of the interstate commerce
commission It provides for a commis
sion to inquire into the issue of railroad
securities and the watering of stocks
It contains many other features of
benefit to shippers such as those to
expedite hearings Many of the provi
sions in the railroad law were placed
there by the insurgents in the two
houses They called it giving the bill
teeth Among the most notable of
these additions are the long and short
haul clause and the inclusion of tele
graphs and telephones The progres
sives also struck out the merger and
traffic agreement sections
Postal Depositories
The postal savings bank law marks
a new departure in American finance
It provides that the president and two
members of his cabinet shall consti
tute a commission to establish postal
depositories at money order postoffices
throughout the country that these of

The new railroad law provides
among other things for a commerce
court to which all appeals from the in
terstate commerce commission shall be
made It gives the commission power
to initiate an inquiry although uo
formal complaint has been made It
confers on the commission the power
to suspend for ten months a proposed
advance in rates and to prohibit such
advance permanently if found to be
unreasonable and unjust This provi
sion went into effect at once in order
that it might apply to the proposed in
crease in freight rates recently halted
by the famous Taft Wickersham in

telephones cables and wireless under

drawn by a regular motorcar This
does away with motor and air brake
compressor vibration and insures a

ride is given than on the steam roads
The cars are fifty six feet over all

old familiar deck roof a survival of
the horse car days these cars have
what is known as the turtle back mon

the roof line and the roof is rounded
The outside of the car seems peculiar
owing to the roof and the windows in
the upper berths There are two of
these in each berth These windows
are double and are equipped with
screens At the head and foot of each
berth in the roof there is a ventilator
which can be opened and closed by
the passenger These features make
the upper berths as attractive as the
lower and obviate that suffocating ef

At one end of the car are a smoking
room and toilet facilities for the men

Statehood and Conservation
The act admitting Arizona aud New
Mexico as separate states provides that
the people of these territories shall
proceed to the formation of constitu
tions which shall go into effect when
ratified by the voters and approved by
congress and the president There was
some hitch as to voting qualifications
in Arizona but this was fixed by a
broader suffrage than that now recog
nized i the territory It is probable
that the two new states will be in the
Union by 1111 making forty eight in
all and using up all the territory in
the United States available for state
hood purposes This of course is ex
clusive of Alaska and our Island pos
sessions It is time to put two more
stars on the flag
Originally President Taft recom
mended nine conservation measures
Two of these passed The land with
drawal act empowers the president -to
withdraw from entry temporarily any
lauds now in the possession of the
United States but provides that land
containing metalliferous minerals shall
be subject to entry under the mineral
land law The act was criticised by
such conservationists as Gifford Pin
chot because it failed to validate the
withdrawals of President Roosevelt
and by implication at least threw a
doubt on their legality and because
the provision as to the mineral land
law and that concerning homestead
entry left a loophole for the private
acquirement of water power sites and
other natural resources
The other measure enacted which
was not strictly a conservation act but
was related thereto was the reclama
tion bond bill This was originally put
at 30000000 but was cut to 20000
000 A fight was made on the provi
sion requiring army engineers to pass
on irrigation projects which was
thought to reflect on the reclamation
service and possibly to mean the sup
planting of Director Newell who had
testified against Secretary Iiallinger
It was finally compromised by provid
ing that the president must approve
such projects and it is presumed that
he will use army engineer- to investi
gate them The purpose of the recla
mation bond measure is to raise money
to complete irrigation projects already
undertaken by the government
Campaign Fund Publicity
The campaign publicity law which
the president advocated although it
was not usually classed as one of the
Taft policies requires that candidates
for congress shall file a statement of
election icceipts and expenditures aft
er election The Democrats made a
fight to compel publication before elec
tion and a provision to this effect was
included in the house bill but was aft
erward stricken out in the senate
The president also succeeded in get
ting an appropriation of S2 O0j0 for
the tariff board witi avowed in

NEBRASKA
Some Facts About the State Thatr
Nebraskans Should Scatter Broad
cast Over the World
Issued by the Nebraska Bureau of
Labor and Industrial Statistics
From 64772S2 acres planted to con
in 1909 Nebraska gathered a crop ot
169179137 bushels worth 98123871
That crop if loaded into standard
freight cars 1200 bushels to the car
would have made a freight train long
enough to reach from Chicago to Den
ver 1040 miles with 175 miles of corn
filled cars left over to adorn the side
tracks
There are millions of acres of corn
land in Nebraska that have never been
touched by the plow
In 1909 Nebraska harvested 50313
COO bushels of wheat from 2564379
acres an average of practically 20
bushels to the acre This wheat crop
was worth nearly 46000000 If that
wheat crop had been loaded into stand
ard freight cars it would have made
a train long enough to reach from
Omaha to McCook on the Burlington
or from Omaha to North Platte on
the Union Pacific
There are millions of acres ot
wheat land in Nebraska that have
never been touched by the plow
The duty of Nebraskans who de
sire to assist in the work of develop
ing the state is to call the atten
tion of home seekers to the oppor
tunities that are offered by this great
young state
There are 100010 quarter sections
of unoccupied land in Nebraska that
may be made into profitable farms
The soil is fertile the rainfall quite
equal to that of other sections that
have become agriculturally rich and
the transportation facilities far su
perior to what the more favored sec
tions had a dozen years ago
There is room and opportunity for
the accumulation of a competence
for 250000 more farm owners in Ne
braska The hardships of the early
pioneers need no longer be endured
by new comers They will have the
advantage of schools and churches
and railroads and markets right from
the start Their only capital needs
to be industry frugality and honesty
Some of Nebraskas most prosper
ous farmers today were renters ten
or fifteen years ago What they have
done a hundred thousand more men
may do within the next ten or fif
teen years
The same capital the same soil
and the same frugality necessary to
acquire a competence in the Canadian
northwest would mean ample riches
after an equal length of time upon a
Nebraska farm For years the Argon
ants traveled across the plains of
Nebraska in search of the gold and
silver of the mountains unmindful of
the fact that at the grass roots in
Nebraska lay a greater store of gold
and silver than were hidden in the
mountains in all the ages of the past
eternal mines of riches that grew
more fruitful as the days went by
From the grass roots in Nebraska in
any one of the last ten years has
been mined more wealth than the
famed gold fields of Alaska have
yielded in a decade and the men
who mined their wealth from the
soil of Nebraska endured no hard
ships compared to the hardships of
the Alaskas
Other thousands are being lured to
the bonanzas of the northwest un
mindful of the fact that greater rich
es and greater opportunities lie in
bthe soil of the great state of Ne
braska
There are millions of acres of gov
ernment land in Nebraska all of it
good for something most of it good
for general purposes and much of it
good for anything in the line of
agriculture suited to the temperate
zone -
The hundreds of growing cities
and towns offer inducements for mer
chandising and manufacturing The
mechanic may find employment in
the smaller cities where the cost of
living is comparatively small and
where the opportunity to become a
home owner is greater
By and large from east to west
and from north to south Nebraska
offers more inducements to the in
dustrious frugal and honest home
seeker than any other similar ex
panse of territory on the North Ameri
can continent This truth should be
spread to the four corners of the earth
by Nebraskans who want to have a
part in the great work of developing
Nebraska
