second term His record in Congress and one term in the United States Senate is so well known to the people of Nebraska that comment here is unnecessary He has a record of doing things and while it has not always been possible for him to get just exactly what he wanted he has certainly done all in his power to advance the material interest of the people of Nebraska The State has never had a representative in the National Congress who has ac complished more nor attained a higher standing in the councils of the nation He is probably entitled to more credit for the passage of the Postal Savings Bank law and the extension of rural free delivery than any other man in Congress The positions he has attained to upon important Senate Committees especially on the appropriation Commit tee is an asset to the State that can be attained only by experience and length of faith ful service something that a new man would not reach except by the same strenuou route traveled by Senator Burkett in his long years of service Nebraska can hold her own and come to the important place she deserves in national affairs only by retaining her tried and true representatives Every voter should remem ber this and under the Primary System it devolves upon each individual voter to go to the polls and see that we lose no advantage already gained through the efficient service of our senior senator TUESDAY AUGUST 16th EVERY VOTER WHO BELIEVES IN ELECT ING A SENATOR BY THE DIRECT VOTE OF THE PEOPLE SHOULD BE SURE TO RECORD HIS VOTE DO NOT DELEGATE TO SOMEONE ELSE THIS DUTY YOU OWE AS A CITIZEN The old veterans appreciating the service rendered by Senator Burkett have made a platfornrf or him specifying some of the things he has al ready achieved and shows something of his ability to accomplish what he undertakes The Senator stands squarely on the Platform of the Republican party which is progressive in every particular and insists always that lines must be sanely drawn but be in keeping with new ideas and necessities He is in the prime of life clean morally and politically honest and able a hardworking painstaking and faithful public servant and deserves the support of every true Nebraskan Advertisement Does Larkin Use Dog Grease A rather amusing piece of informa tion has come into the hands of Jour nal It has to do with a concern lo cated in Globe Ind and the report Issued by the United States govern ment The report has come into the hands of The Journal and reads as follows United States Department of Agricul ture Bureau of Animal Industry Local Office Chief of Bureau Wash ington D C Sir Referring to your letter of the 29th inst also telegram of same date concerning rendering works at Globe Ind you are advised that 1 have visited the plant and find that It is known as the National Render ing Company with office in Exchang Building Union Stock Yards Chica go 111 Mr Edward Meyer Is the manager The building is a two story frame structure with no cellar and is much the same as all rendering establish ments Evidently considerable care is exercised by the management to keep the place as clean as possible The plant is equipped with boilers and engine thirteen tanks 12x6 feet pressed vats in which oil tallow and grease are drawn off also roller for drying tankage No commercial fertil izer is made at this plant but the dried tankage is sold to other factor ies The various products of this plant are white grease B White grease brown grease tallow and horse oil These various products are made from cattle sheep and hogs that die in the Union Stock yards also those that die in cars en route to market In warm weather these carcasses are delivered to the plant in the af ternoon of the day on which they ar rive and in cold weather the morning after A great many dead horses ana dogs from the city are also sent to this plant During the year 1905 the following dead animals were handled Hogs 254SG Cattle 1214 Sheep 4504 Horses 9007 There are no facilities in this plant for the manufacture of oleo oil or lard All tierces in stock in the stor age house were labelled white grease tallow etc The tierces are all old ones and evidently not well cleaned No shop tallow or fat are received here The Larkin Soap Company Buffalo N Y takes 75 per cent of the out put during the summer Pfau Sons Jeffersonville Ind and the Globe Soap Company Cincinnati Ohio also purchase soap material here A good many sales are also made through brokers There is nothing about the place to indicate that it is other than what it is supposed to be Very respectfully signed S E Bennett inspector in charge P S Tanks are cooked at a pres sure of forty pounds Of course it is not said in this gov ernment report that the Larkin soaps are made out of dog grease furnished by this rendering works and yet the statement is so clear that certainly one is justified in advising their friends that Larkin buys dog grease 1 to make soap of A Pacific Coast Trip Concluded from last week The trip from Sacramento to Mar ced where we staid over night was uneventful Took a branch road at 330 next morning for Yosemite Val ley The ride from Merced to El Portel which is the gateway to the Yosemite National park was very fine winding along the banks of the beautiful Merced river with its ever changing panorama We reached the ElPortel hotel in time for breakfast It was a surprise after riding seventy eight miles up the valley with little sign of civilization to reach such a delightful place with its broad veran das and up to now appointments Af ter breakfast we donned our linen dusters and took the stage into the losemite National Park in the heart of the Sierra Nevada mountains in central eastern California 14 stages in party The park covers a domain thirty six by forty eight miles the valley iself is tbout sown miles long by vi to 1 j miles v do Its center is a level park like uicdtw through vhiiii the liver iuns amid gnnes of tall pines and groups of black oaks interspersed with grass plots made bright by many varieties of wild flowers and great ferns in se cluded places Above this level rise walls to great heights Sculp tured giants like into domes and half domes recessed for dropping rivers these Sierra walls surround the mea dow and make of it the floor of a great canyon Entering the valley all coaches drawn by four horses on the south wall are Bridal Veil falls The water wall are Bridal Viel falls The water having a drop of 940 ft The stream is thirty ft wide Around the should er behind which Bridal Veil creek makes its way to the brink are Ctha dral rocks They reach an elevation of 2GG0 feet above the valley floor On the left and nearly opposite is El Capitan which is well named ris ing as it does in majestic grandeur to a height of 3300 ft and has two faces nearly at right angles with each other It projects into the valley like a buttress and presents a superficial area of over 400 acres On past Eagle Peak the Three Brothers Sentinal Rock and Sentinel Dome whose top is 4142 feet above the valley We are now about the center of the val ley among the hotels and camps the little postoffice and opposite the great waterfall called after the valley As we remained in the coach a short drive beyond landed us at Camp Curry in time for dinner Camp Curry one of the most beautiful camps in the park presided over by Mr D A Curry The genial proprie tor has an unfailing store of enter tainment for his guests and accom modations for about five hundred Bath hot and cold water every thing cozy convenient and clean A gener al dining room where splendid meals are served in good style and the waiters are experts After a bounti ful dinner we went to Happy Isles and Vernal Falls Returned in the evening sat around a huge camp fire while calls and messages were sent up to the Glacier Point hotel which is built on top of the cliff which towers 3000 feet above the camp Glacier Point is perhaps the most popular objective point in this vast amphitheatre On the way we pass Vernal and Nevada Fsdls returning down the short zigzag trail past Sen tinel Rock Glacier Point is espe cially remarkable for its commanding position and its great vertical height At the Point an iron railing protects visitors and sometimes from here fire works are displayed At the head of the valley clouds rest and over against the south wall stands the highest rock of all the region the Great Half Dome 5000 ft above the valley Its massive front is cleft straight down for about 2000 ft and the fractured face turned outward is polished by wind and storm It dom inates the valley from almost every point Immediately beneath this great dome snuggled in its little nook is Mirror Lake Without a riffle it lies there reflecting the scarred face of Diablo as it is pictured by the shadows on the Half Dome and other crags and trees are pictured as in a mirror About three miles to the south around by the trail we get a view of Vernal Falls a fall of marvelous beauty in the dark canyon The river is eighty feet wide and drops straight down 350 feet The spray is driven outward like steam and the grass and foliage is kept vividly green by this continuous bath ing in the mist The zigzag trail leads ro tiie top of the fall Not quite a mile beyond is Nevada Falls where the same river plunges down 700 feet The descent is not sheer The foamy torrent glances from slop ing rock making a beautifully grace ful double curve Seen for the first time from the center of the valley Yosemite Falls seem insignificant It is in fact about 35 feet wide and when the stream is full the roar of the falls can be heard all over the valley and the concusion of its descent shakes J windows a mile distant Half way across the valley it Is hard to realize that this volume of water plunges 2G00 feet a half mile As seen from the foot path as you walk to ward it seemingly it is an unbroken fall from its granite lip to its final impact on the foor of the valley And as we draw nearer the volume ol water the yellow and gray granite wall the verdure of the trees and movements of the descending tor rent combine to make it the most wonderful and beautiful water fall in the world In reality it is not one but three In past ages doubtles3 it leaped from the topmost edge of the cliff 3000 feet to the valley floor but some convulsion has shaken dowi the original front to a point half way down and the first fall is now 1000 feet of sheer descent Then come cascades partly hidden through 000 feet downward and a final leap of 400 feet straight down Yo Semite can be visited all the year round and each season has its own special delights and advantages In the spring the melting snow fills the rivulets and the falls are run ning full power In the summer the highest trails are accessible in the fall the colorings of the plant life and softly fading leaves make it the art ists paradice of color and in the win ter as the floor of the valley Is cover ed white and the trees droop under their burden of snow the cold gray peaks pictured against the sky lends a picture of vastness and sublimity We leave the valley in the early summer to bloom for othors F W 13 INDIANOLA
