Wore It not for malting the conl innn and the Ice man both happy , No- lirasKu would never 1mvo done It. The republican party was never so ready to servo the people as It has been olneo the people Imvo said that It has their ontlro contldonco. Sioux City ittandu ready to permit the starch trust to croct there the plant of the trust recently do- Btroycd by Hro nt Oswcgo , Now York. This Is a winter when the south does not appear to Imvo nn ovor-nbuu- dant sot of Inducements to offer those who would escape the rigors of the winter. President Itoosovolt has evidently taken for his motto , "Do It now , " and Is attempting to urge the snmo upon congress as the proper guldo to HB nctlouo. Pennsylvania possesses a model city. Jt Is not Philadelphia , ns might bo supposed by BO mo , but n mlnlatnro affair , really a toy , constructed by a man at Krankllu. Congress may not provo ns capable nt preventing General Miles from get ting Into print ns nt preventing him from drawing a couple of salaries by reason of his position. It la not Impossible that Kussln by her repeated acts ngalnst the great powers of the world sincerely hopes that n world war may release her from the obligation of whipping of Japan. Nebraska temperatures have taken nn unusual spasm which can only bo nccountcd for from the fact that It Is not far enough from the north polo nnd St. Paul to bo absolutely exempt. People are apprehensive that the silence In Colorado political circle portends disaster. It Is not usual for the state to bo so long at It without something of momentous Import hap pening. The congressmen may have suc ceeded In dodging the tariff reform revision problem but they will not bo welcome homo with open arms until the freight rate question Is satisfac torily adjusted. Renders of newspapers nro coming to recognize the fact that If there Is anything of Importance happening In north Nebraska ns well ns In the bal ance of the civilized world The News Is the first to bring It to their notice. Will Mr Parker still continue to in- slst on his most Important point , made shortly before the ballots were cnst nnd counted , or docs ho hold with tlio people that President Roosevelt's nd ministration is untrammeled by the trusts ? ? There Is no time like the present for Norfolk to secure a needed means of transportation between the city proper nnd South Norfolk. The sen tlment Is strong in both sections of the city in fnvor of the Improvement and the work should bo completed the coming season. It will continue to be charged b > the fusionists tnat Nebraska is in the grip of the railroads regardless of the fact that it has gone boldly on record In favor of President Roosevelt's rail road rate reform. They should give the credit that is duo whether 1 comes with extra good grace or not Perhaps the president is not averse to surrendering his position on tariff revision providing that something wll bo done with the recommendation for railroad legislation and of the two the latter Is unquestionably considered o : first Importance by the people of the country. Senator Depow has reason to be lieve that foreign titles do more at chasing nftcr American girls than girls nftor the tltleu. In the Interest of the homo young man there should ho n tax then plarod on titled men coming to this country. There will bo many to agree with Secretary Morton that Injury may bo done communities by the railroads having rates too low as well ns by having thorn too high. What Is re quired IB equality and giving all com munities a clmnco at the business of the country. Commander Peary will probably wait for the Inspiration furnished by American miminor weather before ho starts on his dash to the north polo. The weather Is at present sutllclontly iievero to knock ambition from the breast of the most fearless arctic ex plorer. It remains for a largo Vmnber of merchants to discover that the time for advertising Is when there Is n ces sation of business and not when the proprlutois , clerks nnd cash boys and girls are rushed to death to care for lint which comes whether there Is ad vertisement or not. There Is seine apprehension lest General Stocssol should bo Induced to iiirsuo the llohsou tactics and take to ho lecture platform. America may , towovcr , bo considered Immune from such an attack unless the general akos a course In English or comes at ho people through an Interpreter. The steel trust Is said to have re ? duccd the price of armor plate ? IO a ton , but this is not n necessity of life except on occasions. The people would bo more interested in reduc tions on something that they need nnd use tjvcry day , but the trusts having control of such merchandise fall to reduce. The cattle growers are determined o go It alone since the adoption of n low constitution admitting the pack ers to membership in the organization. They bollovo It might bo all right for ho wolf and the lamb to lie down to gether , but consider that the steer and the butcher would not make agreeable bedfellows. It is probable that the president neglected to put "Uncle Joo" Cannon out of the way while ho was negotlat- ng with the other members of the louse for n revision of the tariff laws. The next tlm.o ho will probably see that the speaker is muzzled or placed way back in the dungeon while he la ondeavorlng to Influence his boys. Congressman Hepburn has been asked to draft the now proposed freight rate bill which is some assurance that the measure will bo about the proper caper. Ho has proven himself a very capable legislator and will undoubted ly prepare a law that will stick and will provo satisfactory to the people who have been demanding just such n measure. Some cereal food manufacturers never know the limit when It comes to advertising. There Is Mr. Post of "Grapo Nuts" fame who has drawn n column or two of first page pure reading matter stuff through his threats to unseat Senator Platt of Now York , and will probably continue to keep before the people In one way or another until his name if not his product Is known throughout the civ ilized world. It Is asserted from St. Petersburg that Russia may decide to punish China for an alleged violation of the neutrality laws. Russia apparently has her hands full with her present contract nnd in the eyes of the world would bo displaying better judgment if Japan was effectively placed out of the way before the lambasting of the people of the flowery kingdom is at tempted. The Japs express some surprise that General Stocssel should have surren tiered Port Arthur when ho was ns well equipped with ammunition , provl sions , guns and men as shown by the material he has given Into the hands of the Japanese. They cnnno conceive that anything llko surrender should bo contemplated anyway , or they would have given up trying to break into Port Arthur long ago. How's This.

The president of the llvo stock as sociation should bo turned loose to tattle with the trust that has been Miylng the stock at what they chose o glvo and selling tlio finished pro- lurt nt as high a price as they de sired. His unwillingness to stand by its Impugned honor "physically or otherwise , " should lit him for stand- ng for the Interests of the assocla- Ion members against the packers. Assistant Postmaster General Hrls- tiw did not miss out to any great ex- out when the postolllco Inspectors vero removed from his supervision , lo has boon honored by the president vllli n commission to travel , sco as nuch of tlio country ns possible and n salary that will keep him from star- atlon while ho Is Investigating the atos on the Panama railroad. It ooks almost as though ho had drawn a prlzo package of high quality. The Missouri democrats are trying mrd to show that they are not all hat Is bad , by attempting to discredit ho notion of the republican leglsla- uro In selecting for senator Mr. Nold- rlnghnus nnd they would not hesitate nt undertaking to drag the national party Into the exhibit If that proves losslblo. It should require something uoro than assertion for the Missouri lomocrats to provo to the people of that state that the republicans are not of the right quality after the showing .lint has been mndo ngnlnst them by men of their own political fnlth. The Minncnpolls Journal thinks col or Is given to the chnrgo that there is food ndultorntion In South Dakota when It Is shown that enough coal tar can bo extracted from n bottle of port wlno to dye n plcco of wool cloth nlno foot square , nnd the snmo amount of coloring material from a bottle of catsup , whtlo n single bottle of pop yielded a grenter amount of dye stuff. If the people of thnt stnto wish to preserve the original color of their Internal machinery It may bo expect ed that they will Insist on the legis lature plnclng a prompt nnd vigorous protest on the methods of manufac turers. It Is the opinion of seine publishers that while the government Is Investi gating the paper manufacturers' trust it would bo advantageous if it should go further nnd Investigate the agree ments between the ready-print houses , the typo founders and the makers of plates. Country editors In many parts of the country would undoubtedly welcome nn opportunity to got from under the clutches of these combina tions , pnrtlculnrly the former. It could hnrdly bo expected thnt nf- ter going without for the pnst thirty yenrs the republicans of Missouri would elect n United States senator without precipitating n fight. After the fight , however , It Is expected of the controlling party In that state that they will settle down to business ant ! glvo the people cause to bo grateful that they were placed In power and encouragement to do the same trick again In the near future. If all that the police believe about Gcsslor Rosscau Is true there Is In splratlon for the wish thnt ho might never again enjoy the freedom that this country sometimes gives to Its citizens. Ho Is evidently ono of the undesirable Imports that occasionally come from ncross the big pond nnd It would bo a pleasure for the people of this country to return him , pnssngo prepaid or start him nlong to some other country from whence ho cannot get back. General Nogl has finally enterei Port Arthur and taken with him a largo number of correspondents from America and other nations. It Is con fldcntly expected that these newspaper per people who have been kept out of the city slnco the war commcncd wll find many Intresting stories In the city to report to their newspapers and the results of their Investigations are quite eagerly awaited. It is expected that the tales they toll will bo quite different from those that had a habit of coming from Chefoo during the siege. The Turk Is getting generous. Ho mo restored to agents of the Amcrl- nn Dlblo society the Illblos thnt had icon confiscated In nn endeavor to { eon the people of that country from getting hold of some , really good nnd ipllftlng literature. Now If the Bui- an will glvo the missionaries nnd ngonts full swing they will proceed to nalio of one of the worst spots on the phoro n respectnblo country nnd ono lint may In time compare favorably vlth ether civilized nations of the globo. An nblo Iowa editor presents a line of argument to show that success Is vlth those who bear short and slm- ilo names nnd cities in substnntln- .Ion of the argument the winners of glory on the bnttlo field of the far oast. Ho Insists thnt the men with ho Jnw-brenklng unpronouncablo cog- lomens are going down In oblivion iml defeat while those with moro sim ile adornments nro taking all the vie- orlos and accruing honors. The mor- il Is simple : Glvo the kids easy lames If you desire their lives to ho crowned with success. With a largo Irrigation project on n westcin Nebraska nnd western South Dakota , reinforcing the atten- Ion that has been attracted this way > y the opening of the Rosebud reser- atlon and the giving away of section lomcsteads there Is "every reason to > ellovo that there will soon bo a vcstwnrd movement that will bo of mportanco to Nebraska nnd neigh- Hiring states. There are vast resourc- s yet to bo developed In this section > f the country and It Is desirable thnt ho Immigrants should bo constantly tept Informed regarding the ndvnn- ages offered. A healthy growth should bo shown In Nebraska nnd South Dakota for a number of years and It should bo encouraged to con- Inuo until at least half ngnln ns many nhabltnnts nro engaged In carving heir fortunes from the promising country. The sentiment Is becoming state- vide that Nebraska should ndopt neans of cnlling the attention of pros- lectlvo immigrants from the enst to his section of country. Nebrnskn mdoubtedly hns moro and better In- lucements lo offer the people of the cnst tlmn nny state in the union and f a systematic effort was made to dls- abuse them of the misconception that Nebraska Is a bllzznrd stricken , Irouth-rldden desert Inhabited by In- Hans nnd coyotes the results should bo notable In the Increase of people looking for good and cheap homes whore there Is opportunity to gain health , wealth and happiness. The right sort of opinion can unquestion ably bo aroused If effort Is directed to that end and there are men In Ne braska capable of accomplishing a large showing along thnt line. No- Liraskans should stand up for Nebras ka , not only nt homo but whenever opportunity offers of presenting the stnte's excellent qualities to the people ple of the balance of the world. President Lucius Tuttle of the Bos ton & Maine railway has attempted to check President Roosevelt's policy of linvlng railroad rates regulated under congressional supervision and author ity by threatening the railroad em ployes with the statement that such a plan cannot fall to net directly on their snlnrics , but the railroad employes are not usually the kind that frighten enslly. They know better than any other class of people what the rail roads are-ablo to pay and they are not inclined to the belief thnt their wages will be subject to reduction by giving shippers and communities a fair deal. Anyway the president Is not looking for a reduction of rates except where in It Is necessary to equalize matters between individuals and communities. To do this some rates might need to bo raised while others are lowered nntl in the outcome the cnrnlngs of rail road stocks should not suffer materi ally and the wages of employes , not nt all. People who nro In the pay ol the government are not asked to go on starvation wages nnd it is not to bo considered that the government will agree to n reduction of wnges of railrond employes.
