It looks ns thoagh n lover ns otroiiR us tlmt ought to bo BUflloiont to pry up the necessary npproprlntlou for the work , Orolghtou Uourlor. _ It IB now nnnounood that an Ameri can doctor 1ms ( Uncovered n nncconnful tronttnout of leprosy. Illn experiments wore oonduotod in the leper settlement ut Canton , Ohlim , nnd throe porHoiiH have boon completely uurod , It IB n wonderful achievement. Now if the dootora could but successfully combat tnboronlostH , most of the dreaded dis eases would bo under tholr control. \Vo cannot BOO nny juat reason why the Norfolk asylum should not bo robullt. The fit at o cannot afford to al low no much valuable salvage to go to wantu , nnd the noeda of the Btato call for the inalntenanco of the Norfolk asy lum , both 011 the score of economy and convenience. It Is ono of the few atnto instiiutlons established in the northeast - east part of the Btato , and now an olll- clout waterworks system has been built near it , there la no necessity to add to other institutions and waste BO much of the Btato'a money iu devising now build ing schemes. Kushvillo Recorder , Representative Do Armond of Mis souri la asur wily an expansionist. Ho has introduced n current resolution in congress authorizing the president to ascertain on what terms England will consent to pr.rt with Canada for the purpose of annexation to thia country. It ia n dream that many Americans have entertained for years of some da ; adding Canada to the territory ovoi which the United States will have authority , but the Missouri congress' man is original in his efforts to bring it to pass. 'If England were less satis- fled with Canada nud the people of Can ada had fault to find with the manner iu which they have boon governed by the mother country , the United StatOB would bo much uioro likely to obtain n favorable proposition looking toward annexation. It would bo a flue Btrokc to huvo this country expanded to iu- clndu the whole of North America ox- cept the small portion occupied by the Mexican republic and oven that might bo absorbed when the proper time ar rived. Thou wo could show the world nn empire that wonld bo supreme among them all nnd It is perhaps this thought that would intrude between uogotations with England for Canada. The Governors of Nebraska. The current publication of the torma of office served by the governors of Ne braska since it was admitted into the union presents n record that is worth preserving for its historic value. "Wo give it ns follows : David Butler , 1800-71. "William H. James , 1871-73. Robert W. Pumas , 1872-74. Silas Garbor , 1874 78. Albinus Nance , 1878-83. James W. Dawos , 1883-86. John M. Thnyer , 1800-00. James E. Boyd , 1800-03. . Lorenzo Oronnso , 1803-04. Silas A. Holcomb , 1804-08. W. A. Poyuter , 1808-1000. Charles H. Dietrich , part of 1001. Eza P. Snvago , 1001-03. J. H. Mickey , 1003. One highly interesting feature of this gubernatorial exhibit is the longevity of the governors of thia state. Hero is a list of fourteen , reaching back thirty- seven years Of those fourteen twelve are still living and ready to hold office at the drop of the hat. Only the the first two , Butler nnd James , have gone beyond. For n period of thirty- one years death has not claimed n gov ernor of Nebraska. None have en countered the keen edge of Father Time's sickle. May their years in the laud be many. Ponce de Loon searched in vain foi the fountain of eternal youth. Ho did not fli.d it , because Nebraska was then a t unidentified part of the unknown west. It had not yet been carved oul -of the Louisiana purchase and been made a political sub-division whore men might become governors and live happj ever after. It Is little wonder that , viewing the record , there nre many who seek the glory and perpetual youth of the ex' ecutive chair. Some there are whc have died trying to get into it , bul only two of the whole number who sue ce'eded m reaching it. Long may the governors of Nebraskt wave. Fremont Tribune. Democrats Resolve to Filibuster Until End of Session. BEGIN OBSTRUCTIVE TACTICS. House Wastea Three Hours In Ap proving Journal of the Day Preced ing Finn la Now On to Hold Con tinuous Session Until March 4. WnRhlnRtoti , Feb. 27. Amid BCOIICB which recalled the momornblo nnd exciting - citing days of the Flfty-flrflt congress , when party feeling ran fiercely nnd the hall of representatives resounded with denunciations of the alleged "high-handed mothndfl of the major ity , " Junics J. Duller of Mlauourl was uiiHeated yesterday by the house iind Ocorgo C. U. Wngonor was Heated In hlfl place. The Domocratn had do- elded at their cnucua yesterday mornIng - Ing that If thia case wna called up they would prosecute a nilbuBtor from now until March 4 , regardless of con- Bciiuonctm upon legislation , and the'1 began the tight ns soon na the , gavel foil at noon. Roll call followed roll call and It took over three hourB to approve the Journal of Wednesday's procoedlngn. Then , when the decks were cleared , the caao was called , A nplrltcd debate of two hours followed nnd finally , after repeated roll callfi , the cnao was brought to a vote. The Domocrata then attempted to block things by leaving the hall , but enough absentees finally were brought In to make up the necessary ( iiiorum. The closing chapter was dramatic. Ilalzoll , who was In the chair , refused to recognize a demand for division , nnd Richardson , the minority leader , Blood In hlH place nnd denounced his course In unmeasured terms , amid the Jeers of the Republican sldo. The handful of Democrats present were overridden roughshod and Wagoner was Rented. The Republican leaders , In deciding to force this case to a vote , did so with n perfect realization of the em barrassment which would follow If the Democrats carried out tholr filibuster threats , nnd they have arranged a pro gram to reduce the minority's obstruc tive power to n minimum na far as the appropriation bills are concerned. This Is to bo accomplished by a spe cial rule , which has been tentatively prepared , by which nil'tho preliminary parliamentary stops for getting ap propriation bills with senate amend ments Into conferwnco can bo cut oft. But later In the afternoon Republic ans Interested In the public building bill .threatened to vote against the rule unless It made provision for the bill. This disturbing factor In the situation has not been straightened out. The Republican program also In cludes a proposition to continue the legislative day of yesterday until noon March 4 , In order to obviate the long nnd tedious work of approving the Journal under filibustering tactics. A recess was taken last night Until 11 o'clock today -and a rule has been pre pared which hereafter will give a mo tion to recess precedence over a mo tion to ndjourn. Under the operation of these drastic measures , It Is be lieved that none of the appropriation : llls or other necessary measures will bo jeopardized , but the present Ituatlou undoubtedly sounds the death knell of many minor measures. OPPOSE SIDE APPOINTMENTS. Senators Say They Should Not Bo Members of Commissions. Washington , Feb. 27. The advisa bility and legality of the nppolntrasnt by the president of senators and mem bers on commissions formed the sub- cct of considerable discussion In the senate yesterday. The sundry civil bill was under consideration and Hale , having In mind the amendment which was adopted Wednesday authorizing the appointment of an international monetary commission , started the de bate by calling attention to the fact that the senate had reprobated the policy of appointment of senators on commissions and on ono occasion had refused to confirm two senators nomi nated by the president for such ser vice. During the discussion It was made clear that no reflection was in tended on Ledge and Turner , who have been selected as members of the Alaskan boundary commission. The bill was passed after a number ol amendments had been added to It The senate went Into executive sea elon at 1:40 : p. m. and devoted the remainder of the day to the Pnnamn canal treaty. Blackburn during the ex ecutlve session said tlmt hereafter he would object to any unanimous agree xnonts lo vole on measures until he could be assured that a vote could be called on a motion to consider the an It-trust bill. Senator Hale rospondet by saying that he did not think thai position could be maintained , but Son ntor Blackburn assured him that I would bo. Senator Hoar spoke of nil desire to bring up the conference re port on the bill for the protection o the president and after encounterlni Borne opposition , at last moved to g < Into executive session for the purposi of presenting the report. The motloi prevailed 29 to 20. Senator Morgai ceased his speech In opposition to th treaty almost an hour before the open Ing of the doors. He was not we ] and was excused on that account. Senator Burrows , chairman of th enate committee on privileges an < elections , presented to the senate i protest signed by Rer. J. L.

There Is n policemen's college In St. PetcrsbnrK lo train applicants for the force1. There Is n museum combined with the Kchool where the pupils make themselves familiar with the tools of criminals jimmies , drills , chisels nml contrivances for robbing collection boxes , a special field of Russian thieves. The Russian passport system Is studied In detail. The duties of the dvornlks , a sort of assistant police , are taught. They keep watch on the resi dences , report on the habits of lenauts , their visitors , examine the papers of newcomers and ellrcct them to report themselves at the police station. The members of such n clever and compli cated system need careful instruction. . A Curlonltr of Sound. If when riding In n balloon , at a height , say , of 2,000 feet , n charge of guncotton be ilred oleclrlcally 100 feet below the car , the report , though really ns loud ns a cannon , sounds no more than n mere pistol shot , possibly partly owing to the greater rarity of the air , but chlelly because the sound , having no background lo reflect It , simply spends Itself in the tilr. Then , always and under nil conditions of atmosphere soever , there ensues absolute sllcnc'u until the lime for the echo back from artn lias tuny elnpscu , wncn a elcar- 'iiliiK ' outburst of thunder rises from below , rolling on often for more than itilf a minute.

' Later 1 noticed that the doormat was changed for one that said 'Wipe Your Feet , ' and n motto declaring that 'Early to Bed nnd Early to Rise Make a Man Healthy , Wealthy nnd Wise' had the place ot the other.
