The disastrous fire thnt swept the bus
iness portion of Brownvlllo last night ,
will be argument for adequate 11 ro pro
tection in other towns of its eizo nud
standing. No town thnt is worth build
ing but is worth boiug protected from
flro ns completely as possible , and oven
with the best protection they sometimes
are destroyed.
At the rate improvements have
started iu Norfolk during the past few
pleasant duys it ia apparent thnt the
Hinouut of work to bo done nloug thnt

uxcood all expectations. Now buildings ,
improvements , aud rumors of now

Tlw report comes from Ohio to HIP

Such a condition hns boon surmised by
the people in general and now that ouo
of the political loaders hns nnuuonucod

quite snfo in entertaining the belief thnt
it is so. Some such assurance from
Maine nud lown is now nwnited with
some impatience.
The Ilartlugtou woman who mndo n
bridle "for President Roosevelt" must
have been rending the trust opinion of
the president , otherwise she would have
made it for the president's horse. As
far as the people nro concerned , they
do not want the president bridled , oven
by a woman , though she may bo ouo of
these fair representatives of her BOX for
which Nebraska is famous.

With the launching of the now
armored cruiser , West Virginia , at Newport -
port News Saturday , the United Stntes
nnvy hna boon effectually strengthened
nud is rapidly assuming proportions that
will demand aud reolvo the respect of
the world. This launching of now
cruisers , battleships , gun boats and
other war engines has been quite a con
stant feature in naval circles for sev
eral years nnd is to continue somu time
longer. When Dewey aud Sampson and
Sohley wore having trouble with n for
eign navy they demonstrated quite ef
fectually that they wore in command of
a power , but with the improvements
siuco then the oflloionoy of the navy has
been greatly increased , and another such
war would demonstrate , beyond a doubt ,
that the American navy coxxld cope with
any of them. It might not bo safe for
Dewey to say this , but n newspaper is
not so circumscribed ,
Norfolk is approaching n high ideal as
a oity of homes and this summer is to

particular. As n railroad center it will

to drnw by reason of its slzo nnd loca-
tiou all combine to make it a desirable
place in which to live and the runny
who own or are building their
homos is evidence that they are satis
fled aud intend to remain. Olty prop
erty has advanced In value during the
past few yonrs but it is certain to ad-
vanoo much more during the years that
are to follow so that the shrewd investor
will not long delay iu acquiring desir
able properly. When the boom was on
much of the property was held at an
unreasonable figure , but it is now worth
all that is asked and will bo worth much
moro within a few yours.
In another week Arbor day will bo
hero and it will bo np to the people to
plnut n tree or two , or n hundred , oven
though they observe the holiday in no
other manner. This was the p v > iary
object of J. Sterling Morton when the
holiday was established , to promote tree
oulturo in Nebraska , nud the day hns
hiulnn excellent effect in this direction.
The holiday falls on the birthday of the
late Mr. Morton , nnd as this is the first
Arbor day following his death it is do-
Blrablo that the day should be better
nnd morn onthufllnatlcnlly observed In
memory of the founder than over bo
foro. The planting of trees In wholly
dofllrablo for the people nnd the country
nnd It wan nn entirely unselfish aud pa-
trlotla Aonttmont that Influenced Mr
Morton to favor such n holiday. It now
rosin with the people to determine the
benefits of its observance , Every prop
erty owner , whether ho owns n lot or n
farm can afford to devote ground to tree
oulturo and encourage the plnntlng of
trees by others , ,
J. Starling Morton , the father of
Arbor dny , died on April 27 , of Inst
yonr a few days following the holiday
ho founded , nnd tomorrow will there
fore bo the first Arbor day following
his ( loath. For this reason the day
nhoiild bo bettor nnd moro generally
observed than heretofore. Mr. Morton
was onthmlaitloal for the planting of
trees on Nebraska's prairies , knowing
that trcos would benefit the stnto nnd bo
n Bonrco of joy to the people of this nnd
succeeding generations. Ilia plan lias
boon largely successful nnd through his
efforts , and these of his friondn nnd
supporters , Nebraska now hns thousandH
of trees where before there was nothing
but blank stretches of prairie , and the
work is 8i | y fairly begun. There is
room for nilllioim of trees and the
sooner they nro planted the sooner will
the people realt/.o the benefits to bo derived -
rived from their growth. In future
years they will produce shade nnd fuel ,
conserve the moisture nud bo of inoati-
tnnblo benefit in other ways. Plant
trees.
The Union Pacific railroad company
has recently invested in ton water
softening plants the sum of $200,000 for
the benefit of their locomotive tubes.
At ColumbuH analysis hns shown thnt
there nro twenty grains of solids iu
every gallon of water , and the machines
put in nro oxpootod to make the wntor
1)5 ) to 88 per cent ohomlcnlly pure. This
is designed to snvo the company large
sums of money iu extending the llfo
aud usefulness of the bailer tubes that
nro made of iron. There is an example
iu this for people who will insist on
pouring this same water into their sys
tems without purification. If it will
got nwny with boiler tabes why should
people continue to oxpoot that the deli
cate tissues of their bodies can stand
moro than the metal of the locomotives ,
and yet many of them take no precau
tion , but run this limo and alkali
through their system without n thought
of the dnmogo it may do to their inter
nal machinery. If the railroad company
finds it profitable to purify water for its
hollers it should certainly bo of benefit
for the people to purify for their systems
or eschew water altogether.
The School News , published by the
county , nnd edited by Superintendent
Drum , hns boon devoting considerable
space during the past few months in on-
oonragouiont of the observance of Arbor
day , the planting of trees nnd beautify
ing the school grounds of the county.
In the April issue , just printed , is given
a school ground plot , with a suggestion
for the grouping of trees , that would
add much to the appearance of
country schools , especially , these
, hat are now barren of nature's
ornamentation. The school yard
should bo ns beautiful as that of
the homo , because it is there that the
children spend n largo share of their
time. The superintendent argues , and
rightly , that every tree planted adds
vnlno to every aero of land in the neigh
borhood. "Out down the trees in Mad
ison county that have been plauted dur
ing the last thirty years , " says the
article , "nud you will reduce the value
of every acre of land $10. This would
bo true of every farm whether it has
trees or not. The benefloient influence
of the tree is like the rain which falls
upon'tho just and the unjust , ' for it
benefits the shiftless , the thoughtless
and the slovou as well as him who
plants. "
An article that is boiug received with
favor by a number of fusion papers aud
which is said to have originally appeared
in the Times-Inde
peared Loup Oity -
pendent , is rather critical of Gover
nor Mickey because ho is n friend of the
now revenue Inw nnd hns expressed the
opinion that "the law will be the means
of bringing the total assessed valuation
of the state up from ono hundred and
eighty millions to five hundred million
dollarsr" "Who , " asks the brilliant
political light , "is to pay this additional
lureo hundred and twenty million
dollars ? You who have been uunble to
pay your taxes before , what will yon do
uow ? "The editor was foolish in quit-
'ing so soon on the brilliant line of
thought. Ho should have taken a
pencil aud a piece of paper nnd figured
out for the already burdened people
hat , with n population of llttlo more
than n million , to pay three hundred
and twenty millions would cost some
thing like $300 per caplta.nnd as a voter ,
on the average , stands for nbout five of
population , the cost would bo five times
$800 , or nbout $1,500 "to pay this ad
ditional throe hundred nud twenty
million dollars , " Thia would take n lot
moro than many of the tax payers own
and would virtually mean a confiscation
of property by the state government.
Ho would have made n good thing of it
in this way nud had nil his subscribers
shivering lu their boots , and might have
provoked an exodus to some other
country where the government does not
demand in taxes all a man owns.
If Nobrmkix should plant too many
troifl it will not bo found difficult or un
profitable to remove Homo of them , so
do not bo afraid of overdoing the busi
ness.

The southern portion of the Btnto la

Now that the report has boon sent out
for Homo tiiuo that the fruit buds wore
killed by the recent cold snap the
people are prepared to BOO the buds
blossom forth nnd prodnco an excellent
crop of fruit , This is the usual report
after such reports have been given
thorough circulation.
Nebraska crops nro for enough ad
vanced to warrant the Ni bruska section
of the department of ngricnlturo to com-
moncn the issuing of its weekly state
ment of crop conditions , nnd it may be
expected thnt this service will keep the
people informed ns to how Nebraska
crops are booming from this time on
until the end of the season. A propi
tious etart for a big harvest hns boon
mode iu most sections and the time is
rnpidly approaching when thnt well
known growing noise will again bo
hoard.
It is quite evident thnt Ex-Gongress-
innu Mercer is taking n hand iu the
contest for mayor of Omaha which is on
this Kpr'iig. ' It is apparent that Mayor
Mooros is to hnvo considerable oppo
sition for re-election nud no ouo seems
to have the same reason for desiring
his defeat that Mr. Mercer hns , because
Mr. Moorcs is boiug supported by Mr.
Roiowntor. It is probublo thnt the
result of the three-cornond fight will
bo the election of n democratic mayor ,
but that is the snrap sort of medicine
administered during the congressional
campaign last fall , and if Mercer cau
return the compliment ho will probably
feel that his time and ofFortn have not
boon altogether wasted.
The grain rate granted from Omaha
to the gulf by the railroads should bo
advantageous to all the farmers tribu
tary to that city by permitting the
dealers to offer higher prices for their
grain nud poimit the shippers of the
Nebraska metropolis to moot the competition - ,
petition of the Kansas Oity and other
Bouthoiu shippers. It also permits the
gulf shipping ports to compete for the
grain of Nebraska with the Chicago
buyers and those of other eastern mar
kets. The people of Nebraska nro in
terested largely in the concession by
reason of the fact that it opens up new
markets with a consequent competition
that may have a bearing on the price.
The now rate will be in effect until
about the middle of May.
A largo number of Nebraska towns
are feeling pretty good this spring and
nre putting forth now evidences of lifo
nnd activity , but Norfolk will not take
the back seat for any of them in the
matter of improvement and growth.
Norfolk is rapidly emerging ] from nny-
thing thnt might be termed a village
condition nnd is blossou ing rapidly
and emphatically into a city , with all
that the name implies. Norfolk is am
bitions to be the third oity in the state ,
and there is no positive assurance that
her dreams will not bo realized , and
that before many years have passed.
A doubling of population will bring
that resnlt , as there is now no city am
bitious to bo the third in rank having
moro than 8COQ and many of them
have attained all the development thnt
their location and environment would
seem to warrant , while Norfolk has
scnrcoly begun to develop into the
position nud standing that her advan
tages would seem to favor.
NO LIQUOR ON CEDED LAND.
Judge Holds Treaty Binding In Spite
of Failur ? to Fix Penalties.
Sioux Falls , S. D. , April 22. The
question as to the legality of selllns
liquor at Wagner and at other towns
situated on the ceded portion of the
Yankton Indian reservation in Charles
Mix county was effectually settled In
the United States court hero. The
treaty with the Indians provided that
no liquor was to uo , sold on any portion
tion of the ceded land. This treaty
was ratified lu congress and because
the ratification did not fix penalties for
these guilty of selling liquor on the
ceded lands , attorneys have maintained
that liquor could bo sold without fear
of punishment. In a test case Fred
Stanley of Wagner , indicted for this
offense , pleaded guilty and Judge
Carland sentenced him to a term of
six months' Imprisonment and fined
him $100 , thus deciding In effect that
the provisions of the treaty with the
Indians prohibiting the sale of liquor
on ceded lands wore legal and binding
