Nearly every little town in the state is doing its part. Lincoln gave SliiOO last week. Through the kindness of Nor man Mussleman we have been permitted to read a splendid article in the New York Times from the'pen of his relative who was a member of the Thaw jury. It seems that the jury paid no attention to the unwritten law but divided solely on the ques tion of insanity. The article is written in the most finished style and makes a most reada ble story. The manner in which .Judge Raper has tried the Miles case has won for him the most uni versal praise. With all the property involved and the great bitterness of the contest the judge has shown such emminent fairness and ability that the very force of his example has made the trial very peaceful compared to what it formerly has been. The writer of this asked one of the counsel , who by the way is one of the best lawyers in the west , what he thought of Judge Raper , he re plied : "I think Raper the best district judge in Nebraska. " For once The Tribune feels like saying we told you so. " This is a pretty good old world after all. One Anderson , a federal prisoner , escaped from the Leavenworth penitentiary nine years ago , and has lived in Kansas City ever since. He has been industrious , honest and sober. He married shortly after his escape and a little baby girl was born. Nobody knew of his having been a felon , not even his wife. However , one of the fellows who love money above everything be trayed him to the authorities for SUO. Anderson was taken back to the petv his home ruined , his wife stricken with grief and his baby disgraced. The people of Kansas City arose in wrath and are showering petitions upon the president to pardon him. All over the coun try like petitions are being pre. pared. Dave Sowles sent in a long one from Falls City. Of course , Anderson is unknown here , but it doesn't tit in with Falis'City's idea of the square dfiil to see a man live a virtu , ous , upright lite for nine years and then be sent back to con. finement and disgrace.
