The unjustifiable charge made by
Clov. Mickey against McHHrn. aiitiiHlia ,
Eaton nnd Honrto , In connection with
tliu rnllroiul assessment , IH not gcncr-
nlly uut'.orHtood by tbo general public
nnd of course Its nnfnlrnesH IB not
apparent on tlio surface. Tliu fact IB
that tbo board baa boon besot during
tlio two yoarH by roproHontatlvoM of
tbe rnllroadB who argued that the as
sessment waB already too high and
demanded that It ho reduced. Instead ,
the board raised the assessment of
Nebraska rallroadH last year $1,500.000
and this year another raise of $ 1110,000
was added to tbo assessment of last
year , and this In face of the fact that
the Union 1'nclflc and llnrllngton re
fused to pay their taxes last year , on
tbe ground that they were excessive ,
deciding to test the matter In tbo
courts. Ilather than such censure as
the governor has been giving In a
prejudicial way , the members of tbo
board are really entitled to commen
dation , for they have certainly looked
after tbo Interests of the state In a
matter which most vitally affects the
pocket books of tax payers.
Two weeks ago. It IB probable that
( hero was not an American In the
world more popular than William J.
Itrynn , with the possible exception of
President Hoosovelt. Hut William Is
glad to let bis follows hoar him talk ,
and when bo uttered the sentiment In
London a few days ago , referring to
his position on the silver question In
1S9C , "I have nothing to withdraw on
economic questions , " ho probably
Bounded his doom as a presidential
candidate. Democrats were beginning
to bo very much enthused over Mr.
Bryan as a candidate for the presiden
cy In 1908 , being led to believe from
bis long continued silence on tbo ques
tion that ho bad outgrown the silver
fallacy. Instead , Mr. Bryan lias seen
fit to drag tbo corpse of free silver out
of Its grave and assure tbo country
tbat it Is not dead but simply sleep
ing. Mr. Bryan in bis effort to retain
the quality of consistency , has simply
turned the presidency over to tbo re
publican party , making a certainty
that a republican will bo elected In
109S , whereas there was considerable
doubt as to the prospect previous to
bis famous London address.
Denaturlzod alcohol is tbo product
that will be manufactured at tbo Ames
sugar factory after tbo present sea
son's run Is ended. Then tbe plant
will bo stripped of sugar making ma
chinery , which will bo moved to tbo
western part of the state and a now
factory established at North Platto.
H. M. Leavitt , manager of the factory ,
has given up trying to operate the
plant near Fremont , where sugar mak
ing has proven , unprofitable for sev
eral years. But with characteristic
enterprise the people of Fremont have
already arranged to Install machinery
for the manufacture of dcnaturized al
cohol in the factory building as soon
as the sugar machinery is removed.
It is said that a number of local cap
italists are Interested In the alcohol
plant and that there is no doubt but
that it will bo made a success. The
removal of the tax from denaturlzed
alcohol has opened up a field for many
plants to do a profitable business in its
manufacture. The News has repeated
ly urged that steps bo taken In Nor
folk to fill the old sugar factor } ' build
ing here with alcohol machinery , and
when It sees Its neighbors doing the
very thing It baa suggested for Nor
folk , it concludes tbat there is some
merit In the proposition. It is not at
all probable that Norfolk will ever
have another sugar factory , partlcu
larly since another failure at Fremont ,
and it Is high time something were
done to utilize the old sugar factory
building and property. /
STEEL CARS TO SAVE LIVES.
America and since the disastrous
wreck In England the other day , Brit
ain may be Included as well will hear
tily welcome the day when railroad
cars are so well made and of such
strong material that cars can not splin
ter Into kindling wood and crush out
the lives of all those on board. During
the past several years the life loss
from railroad wrecks has been appall
ing , and a movement toward better
constructed cars will be a long step in
the right direction. The general public
will be glad to know that , after a long
nnd careful investigation and nu
merous experiments E. II. Harriman
has decided tq replace the wooden cars
on all the Harriman lines with steel
cars. In the shops of the Southern
Pacific nt Sacramento , Cal. , Mr. Harrt-
man Is having built a model steel
freight car , day coach , baggage car
and cars of other classes. These mod
els will be adopted as the standards of
the Harriman system , after which all
Harriman cara will bo built almost en-
tlrely of Btoel ,
Mr. Harriman has learned that the
UBO of Btcel will reduce the weight of
a freight car rfom 6,000 to 7,000
poundB. In a' train of fifty carB this
saving of weight would result in a
much greater economy of operation.
The saving of weight on a passenger
car would ho oven more than on a
freight car , but the Important consid
eration hero Is in the protection to
human life. The contention Is that
sled cars will reduce the danger of
lire In a wreck to a minimum.
Motive power olllcors of the Penn
sylvania are greatly pleased with the
trial trips of the steel passenger coach
recently placed In service out of Broad
Street station , Philadelphia. It has
been decided to build a full train of
Htool equipment for trial service be
tween Now York and Washington.
GET IN DEBT.
Got In debt
There was a time when such advice
to a young man was considered out
rageous and entirely out of reason.
Hut experiences of men who have
done things In the world , and of those
who are doing things day by day to
build up solid , permanent Institutions
and to make the country more sub
stantial , demonstrate beyond the shad
ow of a doubt that the young man or-
for that matter , any business man ,
who Is willing to assume the respon
sibility of a debt , and who will labor
Industriously to lift tbo burden , once
It Is assumed , will go further In the
long run than ho who makes It a max
im never to owe a penny to nnyojic.
The man who has confidence In
himself and In the future , and whoso
judgment warrants his Investments ,
can make no mistake by going in
debt to a reasonable extent for the
sake of getting established In proportions
tions beyond any possible reach in
any other way.
The man who borrows money for
legitimate purposes In Investment ,
will devote his unqualified energy to
the reducing of that debt and In the
end , having paid off the obligation ,
will own property that ho probably
never would have owned in another
fashion. For It is human nature not
to save unless ono has it to do , and
to spend little bits of surplus cash
for things that could bo gotten along
without when ono is frco to spend
what money ho has In his pocket. But
where that money Is tied up in lander
or a building or merchandise or ma
chinery , or for that matter oven an
education , It will not bo spent foolish
ly and there will bo something to show
for It after the debt is cancelled.
John Wanamaker , when ho started
bis big store ; was without money and
without credit. Yet ho finally man
aged to get trusted for a stock of
goods. McClure , the millionaire pub
lisher , waded deeply In debt for years
after ho started McCluro's magazine
In 1893. But ho won In the end , and
the debt forced him to stay with the
enterprise through Its first disastrous
years.
To bo able to properly got in debt ,
the borrower must sacredly guard bis
credit and must cherish that as one
of his most valuable assets. In order
to keep it Al ho must keep his every
promise to the slightest detail , must
bo prompt in payment of his obliga
tions on the day they are due or at
least bo on hand to make a satisfac
tory renewal.
Large successes can not be made in
a business way without capital and
where the means IB lacking , borrow
ing supplies the want But credit Is
necessary for the borrower.
MR. BRYAN IN ENGLAND.
Because of the national interest in
Mr. Bryan's trip around the world and
especially In his English visit , there
Is sort of a national pride over the re
ception that he has been given and it
would bo entirely un-American not to
feel a thrill of satisfaction at the stir
ho has created in dear ol' Lon'on.
England has , for the most part ,
come to believe that Mr. Bryan Is one
of the greatest men In the world to
day , and this fact has only intensified
the respect and admiration of the
British toward President Roosevelt ,
whom they concede to bo even a great
er man than Mr. Bryun and who Is , ,
they are now hinting , even a greater
man than Americans know.
The only regrettable feature of Mr.
Bryan's stay in Great Britain thus far ,
and perhaps that is not a serious mat
ter since we in this country know bet
ter , is the fact that he read bis speech
at the banquet and did not give the
foreigners who had heard so much of
his silver tongue an opportunity to
really get a sample of his wonderful
oratory.
Concerning Mr. Bryan's visit , a re
port written by an English correspon
dent nnd therefore interesting because
It reflects the British opinion , has this
to say :
For the moment Mr. Bryan stands
out here as a prominent political fig
ure. He has been interviewed on ev
ery conceivable subject and Inundated
with Invitations to almost every con-
celvablo function. Ho arrived , quite
Innocent of such an intention , at the
psychological moment when the Eng
lish mind was centered on things
American. He has been described In
such opposite terms as "typical com
mercial traveler" and as ono whose
"massive head , mobile features and
deep , vibrating , Impressive voice are
all suggestive of Napoleon. " His
"Whlto Man's Burden" speech cre
ated , upon those who read it In the
English newspapers , an Impression
rarely equaled by any American or
ator. Those who heard It delivered
were enormously disappointed , for , de
spite advlco to the contrary , Mr. Bry
an InslHtcd on reading his speech. Ho
was reminded of his Madison Squ.ire
experience , but ho brushed objection
aside. In fact , ho still bclloves ho
gained rather than lost In not appeal
ing to Now York by means of orator
ical fireworks. Ho had something to
bay In England , and to England , which
ho would not tnist to Impromptu de
livery. Thus It resulted that many
distinguished English guests present
at the banquet believe that Mr. Bryan
is ono of the most over-rated orators
of the day , while tbo hero reader of
the newspaper Is convinced tbat , If
Mr. Roosevelt understands the world ,
an despcclally colonial problems as
well as Mr. Bryan , Mr. Roosevelt must
bo oven a greater man than Americans
bollovo him to be. Meanwhile Mr.
Bryan , having eclipsed oven the van
ishing light of the president's daugh
ter , and quite overshadowed Ambas
sador Whltolaw Reid and become a
serious rival of Mr. Chamberlain as
an oracle upon things Imperial , con
tinues on the even tenor of his holi
days.
THE COUNTY TICKET.
The Madison county republicans , in
their Battle Creek convention yester
day , placed in the field a trio of candi
dates who will bo overwhelmingly
elected at the polls In the county elec
tion this fall. The three men will bo
chosen not so much for the reason that
they are republicans , as for the reason
that they are sterling citizens , reliable ,
conscientious and of a courage that is
necessary in filling public office.
Jack Koeulgsteln was renomlnatcd
for * county attorney , as bo was entitled
to be , and ho will bo re-elected because
ho deserves to be. Ho has nmdo a
good , active , honorable county attor
ney. Ho has been aggressive In the
prosecution of crime , energetic in the
Investigation of charges placed before
him and impartial In fulfilling the du
ties of his office. He has sent to the
penitentiary those who ought to go
and has been tireless in looking after
the interests of the county. Just at
present ho is engaged in requesting
a grand jury , pursuant to tlio demand
of the state governor and the Instruc
tions of the county board for a grand
jury which will Investigate the alleged
charges placed against the Norfolk In
sane hospital by the governor. Ho has
vigorously brought to justice men of
the type of Barber McGuire , who so
disgracefully deserted bis young wife ,
bo has gone many miles over the coun
ty In efforts to learn the facts on
charges of murder , such as that from
Tlldon nnd that In the country west
of Norfolk , and , as this is but his first
term , ho has the right to re-election
and ho will bo re-elected by the voters.
When it comes to the election of a
county commissioner , all that will be
necessary for the voters of Madison
county will be the name of Burr Taft
as a candidate. Mr. Taft is just now
filling the unexplred term of George
D. Smith , resigned , and ho is doing it
so well that Madison county would
never consent to his giving up the of
fice at this time. Mr. Taft has proven
an eminently satisfactory county com
missioner. Economical , painstaking ,
on the alert for the good of his con
stituents , he has been almost constant
ly engaged in behalf of the county. He
has helped to repair the roads of the
county , has helped to rebridgethe
rivers where they have needed bridg
ing for years , and has been a strong
factor In the attempt to solve the Cor
poration gulch problem In Norfolk.
He deserves to be and will be elected
overwhelmingly.
T. E. Alderson , nominated for the
legislature , is a man of the right sort
to go to Lincoln in the interests of
this county. A farmer from near Mad
ison , he has had to work hard to earn
his living and he knows the problems
that confront the farmers of tbe state
as well as the business man. Broad
gauged , honest , economical and yet
progressive , Mr. Alderson bears the
traits of character that make our best
legislators and he will bo elected by a
largo majority to go to Lincoln. He
will make friends rapidly wtien he
comes in contact with the people of
tbo county at largo , and It will be to
the Interest of the people of the coun
ty to send him to the state legislature
Madison county was considered a
very Important county in the senatorial
rial situation , as was shown by the at
tendance of both Mr. Rosewater nnd
Mr. Brown. It was estimated that the
state delegation , though no Instruc
tions wore given , was a victory for Mr.
Rosewater and it Is figured that the
delegation will stand 9 to 3 or 7 to 6
In favor of him at the state convention.
The address of Attorney General
Brown in which he defended the re
publican state officers against whom
attacks for personal reasons have been
made by the governor , and for busi
ness reasons by some newspapers ,
gave a much clearer understanding of
the situation to this county. Mr.
Brown said that there had been a lot
of cheap talk against the present state
officials who will be renomlnatcd , but
that they are the men who have been
fighting the battles for the republican
party nnd that they have gone ahead
and Increased railroad assessments
while a suit to decrease was pending ,
Ho said tbat they are entitled to re-
nomination and rc-cletclon. The state
ment coming from Mr. Brown , who Is
running for senator on nn anti-railroad
platform , has Immense weight In show
ing the Injustice of the attacks made
against the present state officers by
parties with axes to grind.
MATTER OF PRACTICAL POLITICS
Madison county yesterday endorsed
Judge Boyd for the republican con
gressional nomination In this district
at the coming Fremont convention.
Other counties will do the same thing.
Still other counties will endorse Mr.
Young of Stauton and ono has already
been selected for Mr | Warner. All
this despite the fact that J. J. McCar
thy of Ponca Is now and has been for
four years past , drawing the salary as
representative from this district.
There was not a man m the Madison
county republican convention who fa
vored the return to congress of Mr.
McCarthy excepting two or three post
masters who owe their Jobs to him.
This popular uprising in counties all
over the district In favor of Boyd and
Young and Warner , as against McCar
thy very strongly denotes the feeling
of dissatisfaction which exists among
republicans themselves , over the pres
ent representative from this district
The Third district Is pre-eminently
a close district It is almost a toss
up , under ordinary conditions , between
the democrats and republicans.
As a matter of plain , practical poli
tics , the republicans of the Third dis
trict would unquestionably , rather than
allow the democrats of the district to
win , nominate another candidate than
Mr. McCarthy. It would be wiser and
fairer that ho should be sacrificed than
that the party be slaughtered at the
polls.
Mr. McCarthy knows , and every oth
er voter In the district republican or
democrat knows that , oven if he were
nominated , ho could never be elected
at the polls in this district again.
Knowing this , and separating himself
from his inseparable selfishness , Mr.
McCarthy ought to drop out of the race
for the sake of harmony in the party ,
and allow tbo unanimous nomination
of a man who can be supported by all
republicans and who can be elected.
And since Mr. McCarthy , through his
personal desire for office , still seeks to
take the nomination which must carry
the party to deefat. the party has a
right to demand that ho step aside
and It will demand it in convention
for the sake of the election.
For the best interests of the Third
district , a republican ought to be sen !
to congress next fall. A republican , In
"harmony with the administration , is
needed to get things for the people of
this district. But the people of the
district will not elect McCarthy , for
the reason that he has failed to make
good. He has taken no prominent part
In any important legislation during his
entire four years , has neglected to
even try to get pensions where re
quests have been repeatedly made in
behalf of the. poor and the blind old
soldier , and all that he has been able
to do was to allow the postoffice de
partment to establish its rural routes
here , and to draw his $5,000 per year
The danger of carrying the party to
defeat at the polls if McCarthy is nom
inated , Is shown by the eagerness with
which democrats are supporting him
The Fremont Herald , whose edito
hopes to run for congress in this dls
trict as the democratic nominee , 1
lauding Mr. McCarthy continuously In
the hope that he may land the Ponca
man as his opposition. This alone 1
sufficient reason why the republican
should hunt for new timber. Am
aside from those democratic papers
there are none In the district save
few postmasters and editors with axes
to grind , supporting Mr. McCarthy In
bis effort to become a perpetual fix
turo.
Some ono of his friends says he is a
good a congressman as any of th
other districts in the state can boas
of. This Is absurd. When the $125,00
and $85,000 public building nppropria
tlons secured In every other district i
the state are set up beside the $7,50
secured for Columbus by R. F. D. Me
Carthy , and when the numerous othe
prominent active parts taken in 1m
portant legislation by Hlnshaw , Nor
ris , Pollard , Klnkald and Kennedy ar
compared to the absolute nothing tha
Mr. McCarthy has done , the ridlculou
phase of this argument becomes th
more striking.
Will the republicans of this dlstrlc
declare their candidacy vacant by se
ting up the present failure as a victim
for any democrat that might bo pi
up ? Or will they enter the contest I
earnest , with a strong man In the nm
nlng whom the whole party can con
sclentlously support ?

Scientific Farming.
The success now being attained In
sections of the western plains where
agriculture has In former times been
leclared impossible is a mystery to
many who have watched the peopling
of regions that have been once set
tled and deserted. The explanation is
'ound In the scientific methods which
low prevail and which are showing
their advantage over the old hit or
miss style of cultivation. Farms , rich
in fields of growing grain , beautified
with thrifty groves of trees , attractive
In every way , are found where once
the discouraged and disgusted pioneer
toiled fruitlessly and gave up in de
spair.
Canada and the Dakotas furnish
extensive examples of new successes
built upon older failures. The firs
experimenters in the new lands tried
farming in the manner to which they
were accustomed in the east They
endeavored to grow crops on seven
teen Inches of rainfall with the same
methods they had used in the old home
where the rainfall was twenty-five
Inches. They failed , and the land was
pronounced worthless. Canada was
the pioneer in the new order of agrl
cuture. It was discovered that wltl
proper conservation of fourteen inches
of moisture as good crops could be
grown as twenty inches would bring
In the old way. The Campbell metho <
of cultivation was made the savior o
large districts in Canada. Today land
that rarely got more than twelve Inch
es of rain per year are waving field
of thrifty grain. The Dakotas are
copying the plan , and as a result the
western portion of those states , where
the rainfall Is but about 70 per con
as great as In the eastern part , Is de
veloping Into a successful agriculture
region.
As agriculture is made more general
oral the precipitation Is found to in
crease , and trees are possible wher
bare prairie reigned before. The dlf
flcultles are growing less as they ar
being surmounted. It Is predicted tha
another generation will see nmpl
moisture for any form of cultivation
desired. In the meantime the western
plains are being subdued and an 1m
mouse region is being added to th
grain growing area , rescued from wha
has hitherto been known as the "sem
arid" belt. Sioux City Journal.

GRAND ASSESSMENT ROLL OF THE-
STATE NEARLY $314,000,000
DECIDED INCREASE THIS YEAR
Great Part of Increase Comes From
Improvements on Lands In Country
and Town Lots in Cities and Towns.
. No Increase on Lands and Lots.
The grand assessment roll for Ne
braska this year , as computed from
the figures on flic with the state board
) f assessment , will total nearly $314-
000.000.
The greater part of this Increase
comes not from any increase in lauds
or upon personal property returned
ast year , but upon improvements on
amis in tbe agricultural districts and
on the lots in cities nnd towns. The
.leeding of school lands to purchasers
under old contracts and the taking up >
of thousands of acres under the Kin-
kaid act have brought upon the tax
roll much land that has hitherto been
exempt , as the property of the state
or of the general government There
have been many new houses built the
imst year by farmers , and many more
: hun that by the new dwellers in cities
and towns The number of acres of
and thus brought under taxation , hith
erto exempt , is 206,392. This table
ives where nearly $5,000,000 of the
total increase comes in :
[ ncreased value of lands.$1,784,410
increased value of lots 1,617,522
Increased value of money. . . 765,465-
Increased value of merchan
dise 647,269
Total $4,714,666
Of corn there were 8,505,614 more
bushels on hand April 1 than a year
ago 58,355,515 bushels as compared
with 49,849,941. The value last year
was $218,962 less than this year , when
t was figured at $3,334,938. Last year
t was assessed at 31.25 cents a bushel
as compared with 28.5 this year.
There are some fifty Items on the
tax list , all of which make up the nine
or ten millions of total Increase.
There ave more horses In Nebraska
this year than last by 28,511 , and upon
lorses an increase of fifty-six cents
a head is made.
Last year the grand assessment roll
totalled $304,470,901 , an Increase of
59,691,717. The railroads were down
'or $47,294,976 , or an increase of $1-
212,123. This year their Increase is
$444,386.
There has been no increase in the
value placed last year upon farm
lands or city lots. Where any changes
liave been made they were simply to
adjust manifest inequalities , and the
totals are inconsiderable.
As Assessor Burruss of Johnson
-ounty puts It , the figures seem to in *
dicate that of the Increase 40 per cent ,
is due to a better understanding and
better enforcement of the revenue law
by the assessors and 60 per cent , to
the new values created In lands , hous
es , etc.
Another source of the Increase is
found In the fact that the farmers had
more wheat and corn on hand the 1st
of April this year than on the same
date a year ago. Of wheat there were
4,457,290 bushels on hand April 1 as
compared with 2,905,328 last year , an
increase of 1,551,962 bushels. The
value last year was 73 cents per bush
el , as compared with 52 this year.
The value last year was $425,298 , this
year $509,325.
Number of horses , 1905 , 764,422 ; val

tricts , with the object of having at
every table in every dining car over
the entire system a bouquet of freshly
cut flowers at every meal. In addition
to table and other decorations It is
planned to grow flowers on n scale
sufficiently largo to allow a free dis
tribution of roses to women and car
nations , or other seasonable flower ,
not only in dining cars but to passen
gers in every car of every train , and
'n ' winter as well as in summer , the
idea being to make patrons feel that
the flowers are a part of the trip over
this road and not precious little souve
nirs. The greenhouses will probably
be located at Grand Island , Neb. , Chey
enne , Wyo. , Denver , Colo. , and Ogden ,
Utah.n California and In tbo south
the company has no trouble In getting
outdoor flowers all year. But even in
these districts the scheme of flowers
for passengers and car decorations Is
to be enlarged upon. Dining rooms
