Senator Tillman will have much use for his “pitchfork'1 in defending himself from recent exposures. II a man has a large surplus of money and wants to give it away, should he be discouraged from planting it where it will do the most good? Within the last two weeks Nebraska has furnished weather for the lovers of California cli mate as well as for the ice and coal men, The rest of us were not considered, nor our wishes consulted. It is reported that 10,(XK) peo ple in and about Cleveland, O., have undertaken to live for two weeks as Jesus would. This is a splendid beginning. No doubt the habits of many individuals in this section of the woods would undergo a great change if they should make such an ef fort. No other legislative body in Nebraska, was ever so complete ly in the power of the Brewers and Railroads as the present session. The Brewers, however, are the most dominant force. This is a great contrast to the Republican legislature of two years ago. It is yet to be seen how the people of Nebraska will take to the idea. A Lancaster member of the senate wants to introduce a re solution on the question of Wo man's suffrage. Women voting in Colorado and other western states has not yet purified the political atmosphere, nor im proved public policies. When a majority of women demand the ballot, it would be but fair to give it to tin m. Loud mouthed reformers are generally caught up in time. Senator Tillman is now in the limelight. We all knew there are many abuses of the franking privileges, hut it was left for the venerable Tillman to frank a typewriter from Washington to hi* home, and when called upon by the postmaster for $10 post.ige, which was due, he re fused to cough up. Beware of the loud mouthed reformer! BUKETT BILLS Some Very Popular Biils Introduced by Our Senator The second session of the Six tieth congress is half over, aud from the looks of tilings congress will have its hands full disposing of the bills now pending. Senator Burkett is tin* authority of several bills that seem to be very popular, and members say they are daily in i receipt of letters urging them to I support the Burkett bills upon this, that and other subjects. The Nebraska senator introduc it'd a bill providing for a govern ment appropriation to aid in teach ing agriculture in the state normal schools. In view of the fact that tlie state legislature and school authorities are making agriculture one of the required subjects, the teachers of this country have seen the desirability of Senator Bur kett’s bill. Another bill of Burkett’s is to prevent gambling by telegraph. Race track gambling is now con fined to praetieallp three states,and the people are urging the passage of this bill which will stop gam bling by telegraph. The present postal swing bill is practically identical with the bill introduced by Burkett on the same subject last year, and is re ceiving the attention of the people from every state in the union.
