NOW AND THEN.
Of course there is some doubt
vliether a barge line on the
Missouri river between Omaha
iml St. Joseph would be practi
cable with the river channel in
ts present condition. The men
vho have put their money into
he enterprise say that they
lave considered every contin
gency and that it can and will
) ay. If such a line is estab-
ished it would be a great thing ,
lot only for the river towns ,
but for the farmers living in
Vrago and East Barada. For
'ears these men have been com-
) elled to haul their product any-
vhere from ten to fifteen miles
0 get to market. The hills are
cry steep and in wet weather
ire practically impassible for
oaded wagons. If a market
can be created within a few
niles of these farms watcli the
mce of the land soar. The hills
of Barada and Arago are the
nest fertile section of Richard
son county. They will raise
inything in abundance a n d
aise it every year. The only
thing that has held the price of
this land down is its inaccessi
bility. A barge freight line on
.he river would put them as
close to the market as is the
and about Falls City , and by
so doing would enhance the
value of every acre of land in
the hills.

The vinegar factory is squeex.
ng away in great shape. The
apples are coming in faster than
: hey can be handled and as a
result several carloads have
been shipped to Nebraska City.
Dlie great vats are rapidly fili
ng with the amber liquid and
.he process of fermentation is
n progress. The Tribune rejoices -
joices over the success of the
concern , not alone because it is
local institution , but because
we believe that the men who
financed it in the face of great
discouragement are entitled to
everything that is coming.
There are several other institu
tion' ; that could be made to pay
liere just as well as the vinegar
factor } ' is doing.
There is no necessity to start
them on a large scale , a small
beginning sometimes grows into
a great achievement.

No American ever loses the
oppoVtunity to boast about this
"Grand and glorious country. "
It seems to be characteristic of
the race. Wherever other na
tions differ from us they are
wrong and we are right. There
isn't anything we don't know
about government and our way
of managing things is the right
way. Knowing this as well as
1 do I was very much surprised
by conversations had with sev
eral American farmers in Can
ada. I argued that the great
migration of Americans into
northwest Canada would pro
duce a strong sentiment in favor
of annexation. I was told , and
told by Americans too , that the
result would be just the reverse.
"We have better government
here than we had in the states , '
was the reply I received from
every one with whom I talked.
Just think of that , will you ,
coming as it did from Ameri
cans. "We have no desire tc
be annexed , " was a statement ]
heard from every American ]
conversed with. They do nol
know what the statement , "the
lid is on , " means. The reasor
for this ignorance is very sitn.
pie. No one up there seems tc
think of violating the law. The
lid seems never to have beer
off. Saloons close in Victorir
at 10 o'clock. Think of that ir
a city of 75,000 persons , manj
of whom are sailors and accus
tomed to a more open way o :
doing things. No one ever at
tempted to run open saloons or
Sunday simply because public
sentiment would not permit it
When you see young girls or
the street or in the cars thej
are accompanied b y theii
mothers. We have a more inde
pendant way of doing things ,
of course. Our girls with peek-
a-boo waists , elbow sleeves and
other articles too numerous to
mention , go out to the parks
and drink beer with the boys
and have a good time generally.
Not all of our girls , of course ,
but a great many do and noth
ing scums to be thought of it.
These are little things , but they
are things which show public
sentiment. Public sentiment
has everything to do with gov
ernment and public sentiment
isn't working overtime for the
annexation of Canada.
I asked a Victoria man , "Do
you like to live in Victoria1'
Ilis reply is worth considering.
'Yes , and no , " he said , "It is a
mighty good place to rear a boyer
or girl , but it isn't much for
business. You folks , however ,
seem too absorbed in business to
have much time for your boys
and girls. " 1 resented the
statement as incorrect. Five
hours after that I was in Seat
tle , it was Sunday night , and
the Falls City man and L stood
on the sidewalk and counted
seventeen young girls go into a
public concert hall where there
was a little music and a great
deal ol beer. These girls were
accompanied , not by their
mothers , but by young boys.
But Seattle is a great place
for business.

One of the most remunerative
crops is hops. This crop can
be put on market for a little
less than eight cents a pound
and usually commands from 12
to 25 cents a pound It is not
at all uncommon for a hop
raiser to clear Irom live to eight
hundred dollars an acre on his
crop. The hops arc raised on
trellises made of wire so inter ,
woven that a hop field looks
like it was overlaid with clue-
trie car tracks. With every
hop iield goes a hop kiln for
curing the crop. There is hardly
a timber patch in the north part
of Richardson county that ibii't
Hlled with wild hops. When
this fact was brought to the at
tention ol an extensive hop
raiser in Washington he immed
iately replied : "Your soil and
rainfall undoubtedly lit you for
hop raising. The only thing to
be feared would be that your
high winds might tear the vines
from the trellis. " The writer
has ordered one hundred hop
roots with which to experiment
next spring with hop raising in
the hills. If hops can be suc
cessfully raised in this county
it is time we were iinding it out
as it will prove the best money
maker imaginable.

This is the season to get into
the country. The sweltering
days of summer are gone and
the air is ha/.y with the tender
mists of Indian summer. The
corn is yellow and the stalks
and leaves creak in the evening
breeze. The apples lie in red
piles in the orchard telling of
winter nights before the lire at
home with the wind howling
about the corners and down the
chimneys. The sumach iscrim
son and the trees along the
distant creek are brown. The
squirrels chatter in the forest
as they store their winter's
supply of nuts. The green ol
the lowland marshes blends
into the purple of the hills ,
The world has grown weary
with the summer's heat and is
adorning herself with the gorg >
eous dress of the fall season ,
for the labor is over and tht
play time has come. It is time
to get into the country for the
wind will soon blow out of the
north , the red leaves will soon
be tailing and the tender mists
change to the gray sky of

winter. "Nature , -
er , "glories in death more than
in life. Every green tiling
loves to die in bright colors. '

Select Your Wife With Care.
r < im Mnmui In Ifo | ,
In selecting a wife many men
go on the principle that , it beiiiK
i matter of small consequence ,
ilmost any young thing will do.
This is a ureat mistake. The
careful man , even in details like
his , will still be governed by
> roper circumspection.
There are various kinds of
vives to be had for the asking.
The display wife is extensive-
V used in this country. She is
veil made , stylish , ready in social
mergencies and gives much
ileasurc in showing her around.
Jndcr cover she is disappointing ,
ind is apt to run up bills , but for
ertain purposes is in large dc-
naml.
The domestic wife sews and
nemls nicely , makes mustard
Masters and griddle cakes , is a
jeer cloak model ) saves money ,
raises children and is useful in
llness.
The literary wife reads , writes
i ml talks. She entertains people
ou hate , tfives functions you
lespise , makes coxy corners and
rouble.
The economical wife tnakc.s
over her own clothes , starves you
learly todeatlh and saves enough
noney so that you can have a
, joel time with her successor il
ou're lucky enough to have one.
The extravagant wife gives
on a good time at twice what
t's worth.
In selecting a wife always , ol
course , pick out your opposite.
f you have a large , generous ,
whole-souled nature , that loves
company and is fond of travel ,
stag parties and demijohns ,
narry a combination cook , house
cecper and trained nurse. Some'
one should watch the home.
If you are a mean , contempt
ble , petty , niggardly huinai
shrimp , marry a lovely , sweet
ingelic. patient , deserving , wo
manly woman. Her charnctei
will lie developed by suffering
thus giving you the opportunity
: o do some good.
Do not marry any woman jus
because she has money. Becotm
instead her confidential adviser
You will make just as much ou
of it in the end without having
to live with her.

Golden Wedding.
Saturday's State Journal gave
he following account of the
rowning event in the lives of
Mr. and Mrs. 13. C. Hill , sr. , pio-
iccr residents of this county :
One of the most interesting
ml important events which has
akcn place in this county for
ome time was the celebration of
he golden wedding anniversary
of Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Hill , sr. ,
) ioncer residents of this county ,
vhich took place at their farm
everal miles east of this city.
iMierc were present on the occa-
lon besides members of the
amily , a few pioneer neighbors
if the couple , several others be-
ng prevented from coining by
he rainy weather. All invited
outside the family were as old or
jhler than the host , who next
December will celebrate his 74th
jirthday , The day was spent in
recounting experiences of earlier
lays , music and feasting on the
good things provided by the culi-
uiry department of the home. A
lumber of handsome gifts were
eft for the pair , who underwent
1 second marriage ceremony at-
ired in the same clothes they
wore a half century ago , but the
nest unique feature was perhaps
the distribution by Mr. Hill
unong his children and relatives
) rcsent , of souvenirs in the shape
of twenty dollar gold pieces.
Mr. and Mrs. Hill , who were
married in 1850 , at Metcalf , Can-
id a , and settled in Richardson
county , Neb. , forty years ago ,
liave an eventful life and can
tell some interesting experiences
of early days in Nebraska. The
old homestead upon which they
settled when they first came to
the county is a part now of a fine
iract of one thousand acres
owned by them , and it is among
Richardson county's most fertile
land. Their first place of habi
tation was a tent composed of
bed quilts mounted on two , posts
with a pole across the top , and in
this they lived the first six months
of their pioneer lives. Twelve
children were born to the pair ,
and of these six are living1 , only
three being present at the wed
ding celebration , however. The
older children and mother for
several years were compelled to
drive the prowling Indians away
with guns and cross dogs until
the settlera became more numer
ous , and the family has passed
through its share of the grass
hopper years and droughts. Mr.
and Mrs. Hill have nineteen
grandchildren and two great
grandchildren , and in addition to
the farmhouse , which is one of
the most commodious in this part
of the state , maintain a residence
in Lincoln , at 1801 M. street ,
where Mrs. Hill , who is three
years her husband's senior.spcnds
most of iier time. Mr. Hill has
traveled extensively , being quite
a student of fanners' topics , and
attending with considerable reg
ularity the national farmers' con
gress. He is still quite active
and when not on some of his
tours goes often to the farm
where he takes a hand in the
farm work and in caring for the
stock of which he is an extensive
feeder.
