The Farmers Institute Within the next wcclranother session of the farmer's annual institute will be held in this city. We are glad to see the en lightened interest taken in it. Ours is an agricultural state. The wealth of Nebraska depends upon the products of its soil. This is more nearly true of out- state than of most any other state. During- the recent finan cial llnrry , the farmers of our state escaped without a loss. With cribs and granaries filled with grain and farms well stock ed with horses , cattle.sheep and hogsthe prosperity of the farm er is now to be envied more than ever. The time has gone by when tillers of the soil are looked down upon because ot their oc cupation. With our improved markets , our rural telephones , and our rural delivery , and our improved farm machinery , the rural life has become the life of leisureindependenceand plenty. No occupation holds out brigh ter prospects to the young man who is willing to labor and economize than farming. On the farm he is his own master. He has the best that the earth produces. He has his sea-on for rest. With his finely bred horses and eleg-ant carriages he can make h s trip to town and procure what he needs in his home and return to a privacy which no other life affords. SAMUEL WAHL The Daylihgt Store Every one of the ninety-eight students dropped from the Leland - land Stanford university be cause of poor j-cholarship was a cigarette smoker. This should be an object lesson to the boys who are ambitious to succeed in life. With wheat at DOc per bushel ind corn atISlc , the American armer is of no mind to indulge u tallc of a panic. Ue is too busy gathering in the coin. He las not forirotten , however , the l > rophet who said that the price o ( wheat and silver go up and down together. Mr. Hryau made a special trip without invitation , lie says , to Louisville , Kentucky , to advise the legislature of that state to elect Beckham United States Senator. He poured oil on the troubled waters of old Kentucky in an hours speech behind closed doors , and still the waters boil and Beckham is a private citizen. A little more oil Mr. Bryan. Mayor Dahlman of- Omaha , disgraced not only his city , but his state when he appeared in the Water-way convention at Sioux City in a drunken and staggering condition. The idea of the mayor of thegreat metrop olis of Nebraska appearing before - fore anT convention in such a condition is repulsive to all right minded people. We pre dict that we shall hear nothing more of Mayor Dahlman as a candidate for governor of the state of Nebraska. The sentiment in favor of the nomination of Mr. Talt forpresi- dent is showing a steady growth. No man before the public today , with the exception of the presi dent , has such a splendid record ot achievements as Mr. Tatt. lie is a man of clean record. Not one imputation can be truthfully made against him. He is honest , franlc , and out- spnken. There is no disposition on his paat to conceal his views on any great public question. By nominating him for presi dent , which all signs now indi cate will be done , the Republi can party will retain its strong hold on the confidence of the American public. The indebtedness of New York City is nearly equal to the en. tire national debt. It amounts to several hundred dollars for each family in the great metrop olis. This burden must be borne by the people , either in the formjof increased taxation , or high rent. The tendency to extravaganc-e is becoming too common in the expenditure of public money. With a little more thought of economy , the expense of our city , county , state , and national government could be materially reduced and the burden of taxation greatly lessened. It is not he who succeeds in expending the great est sums of public money who is the greatest benefactor , but it is the officer who most judicially expends it and keeps the ex penditures within the public need. The question of who shall represent Nebraska , as delegate at la'rge at the coming republi can national convention at Chicago cage , is now being quite gener ally discussed. Nebraska has tue distinction ol being one of the lirst states to take a promi nent stand for Mr. Taft , Our influence in the national convention - vention will depend largely up. on who represents the state as delegates. While there has been several good names sugges ted , there are none more deserv ing of that honor than Mr.Allen W. Field of Lincoln. Nebraska would be honorably and ably represented in him as a delegate at large. Mr. Field is right on the great national questions. His sympathies are with the people. His past record is good. He is a ready talker and is well fitted for such a position. Let the public honors be passed | around. A. 0. U. W. Debate. The A. O. U.
