DAMAGE FROM ICE GOING OUT.
Steamer Batchelor and Ferryboat Su
sie B arc Sunk , While the Packet
Boat Josephine Is Left Far From the
Natural Course of the Water.
Nlobrara , Nob. , Feb. 18. Special to
The News : The Missouri river broke
up at this point about 11 o'clock Sat
urday night , In which the steamers
Hatchelor and ferryboat Susie B , were
sunk and the line packet steamer Jo
sephine was left on dry land , far from
the water's natural course. All these
boats are the property of Capt. Joseph
Leach.
The break up caused an awful roar ,
reminding old settlers of the ' 81 rise ,
it was duo to the unusual rise in the
Nlobrara , which has now gone down.
Ice In the Missouri still holds above
the mouth of the Nlobrara. How far
below the mouth It Is open Is not
known , but between here and Running
Water it Is clear.
SOME ABUSES.
State Normals Now Used as High
Schools.
The following communication from
Senator Randall appeared in the Lin
coln Evening News :
To the Editor : I noticed In your Is
sue of the llth an editorial comment
on senate flic No. 259 , Introduced by
me , raising the qualifications of en
trance Into the normal schools of this
state from the eighth to the tenth
grade.
I am constrained to believe that you
have not Investigated present condi
tions that exist or you would not have
written ns you did In regard to It. If
you will take the trouble to obtain an
educational directory of Nebraska for
the years 190G and 1907 you will find
that there are twenty-two schools of
the eighth grade , sixty-seven of the
ninth , ono hundred and seventeen of
the eleventh , and one hundred of the
twelfth.
There are only two state normal
schools supported by this state , and
the capacity of both combined Is about
twelve hundred , and as these normal
schools are now being conducted they
are nothing more than state high
schools and should be so considered
unless the standard of entrance Is
raised to at least the tenth grade. I
had Intended at llrst thought to make
the requirements the twelfth grade ,
but upon Investigation I found that the
ten'tli would be just about one-half of
the scholars In this state who had en
tered the high school course nnd
would bo more equitable and at the
same tlm raise the standard so that
the abuse that has been creeping In
would bo partially overcon-e.
Why , sir ! Do you know that Peru
has not maintained a high school for
years ! AVhi.c other districts In this
state arc being taxed to maintain
schools of the ninth , tenth , eleventh
and twelfth grades the good people of
Pom are having tholr children educat
ed at the expense of the state and with
a school population of three hundred
and cloven , only ninety-eight of that
number are registered in the public
school and with an average daily at
tendance of sixty-six.
The principal of their school re
ceives the princely salary of ? 50 per
month and It requires only two assistants -
ants to educate three hundred nnd
| i vi-n rhlldrfii Wouldn't It be nice
f every town the Hl - of Pern could
MVP a Hlalo normal ? And what In-
nonllvo IH there for other districts to
mild nnd equip high school bulldlngH ?
Do you bcllev- that It IH treating the
taxpayer * fairly to allow the small
chlmion who ought to be educated by
Uio tax payers of the districts where
normal schools are located to crowd
out those for whom these schools ,
were constructed nnd are maintained ?
I wish It were only possible for ns to
have a'county high school In every
county In this state where there are
children enough to require It , and do
away with these schools that are now
called state normals , nnd are nothing
more nor less than county high schools
maintained by the state , and largely
tor the beiiellt of the community Im
mediately surrounding them. Should
you need further Information In re
gard to this subject , you are at liber
ty to call on me or what would prob
ably be more satisfactory to you , con
sult the records In the olllce of the
superintendent of public Instruction
and I am confident you will bo con
vinced that senate Hie No. ' L'i > 9 Is fair
and ought to become a law.
Very truly yours ,
C. A. Randall.
Senator from Eleventh district.

FIV HAVE COME HERE FROM
CHILLICOTHE , MISSOURI.
PAY IS HIGHER IN NORFOLK
Norfolk Is the Home of a Large Num
ber of Men Who Make Good Citizens
and Earn Their Livings by the Click
of Electrical Keys.
Telegraph operators seem to grow
at Chllllcothe , Mo. Tholr first stop
ping point , after leaving that city , Is
Norfolk , Neb. AVlthln the past year
live telegraph operators In the Western -
ern Union service have come to Nor
folk from Chllllcothe , and the local of
fice has been In charge of Mlssourians
only. There are two of them hero
now. These are the telegraph operat
ors who have come from Chllllcothe ,
Mo. , to Norfolk within the past year :
J. O. Mctcalfe , now manager of the
Western Union olllce at Grand Island.
J. R. Townseud , now clerk In the
oflico of Superintendent Nelson at
Omaha.
Miss Cora Murphy , now operator in
Sioux City.
C. J. Havlland , now manager of the
Norfolk olllce.
J. B. Pomborton , now helper in the
Norfolk oince.
All of these five telegraphers grew
up in Chllllcothe. Two of them ( Mr.
Ilnvlland and Mr. Mctcalfe , ) were man
agers of the office at that point before
they came here. Three of them came
here as students to the other two and
arc now on the highway to positions
as dispatchers and fame.
Pay More Here.
Although Chllllcotho Is a city of
10,000 people , the salary of the West-
crn Union manager Is higher hero than
there. This is explained by the fact
that Norfolk is the center of a vcrj
argo territory and there Is a main
Ine switchboard here to take care of
The recent Increase of salaries for
AVestern Union operators does not af
fect the local office because It applies
to "operators" only , and not to man
agers.
Many Telegraphers In Norfolk.
For a city of Its size , Norfolk is for
tunate in claiming an unusually large
number of citizens who earn their llv
lugs by the click of the little electrical
key. Many of them. In railroad work
hold the lives of railway passengers
in their hands , and It Is a fitting com
mentary upon the skill and caution of
these Norfolk telegraphers that no
wreck has ever occurred in the Nor
folk division of a railroad. It's a rec
ord that few divisions can boast of
Here is a list of the telepraghers hero :
Chief train dispatcher , Northwestern
railroad headquarters , Edgar Sley.
Night chief dispatcher , Northwest

OMMERCIAL CLUB SECRETARY
MUST BE MORE THAN A CLERK.
MUST HAVE EXECUTIVE ABILITY
Jot a Small Fraction But a Large Portion
tion of the Time of the Secretary
Must be Given to the Work of the
Commercial Club ,
At a meeting of the directors of the
'onimerclal club held Tuesday morn-
ng It Is expected that a secretary of
lie club will ho elected. Aneiit the
ecrotaryshlp , the following communl-
atlon from one of the most prominent
nil aggressive business men of Nor-
oik which was published two years
go concerning the duties of that of-
ce , will bear repetition , as the condl-
Ions now are not dissimilar to those
vhlch existed at that time. Following
s the letter which appeared in The
Vows April 21 , l)0.r ! ) :
"Them is an Impression In the minds
f some of our citizens In regard to
he work ahead of the secretary of our
'ommerclal club which I want to ills-
uss briefly. For Instance , from what
everal gentlemen have said to mo ,
bout this they evidently think that a
lltle personal attention to mlscella-
eons things that come along , a few
otters perhaps dally to corrcspon-
ents , and a few more fired in the air
oward some fellow who Is supposed
o be ready to be dislodged , wfh ) two
r three trips during the year to neigh-
orlng cities that will carry nn Incl-
ental cigar with at least a bottle of
Vhito Rock on the side , will consti-
.ute the chief duties of our secretary ;
hat his work for our club would not
nuch Interfere with any other bust-
less ho might have nor with his 'dally
ound of pleasure. '
"Now my Idea Is , Mr. News , that
> ur secretary should employ practical-
y his whole time In the business of
he club ; if he Is the right kind of a
nan and I want to say right hero
hat the stockholders absolutely won't
Hive any one else he will immediate-
y find ns he gets into his field of work
, lmt there are no fences in sight ; for
nstance he will have not less than
JOO partners to interview about pay-
ng in the capital of the enterprise ,
and to interview him as to Its dls-
inrsemcnt , his office work will be to
mt In shape , he must look up news-
lapers and their rates in order to
umw whether to use them , ho must
get In touch with all matters commer
cial , educational , social and political
that are happening and are on the
apis in northeast Nebraska , attend-
ng every convention In this territory
) f sufficient importance to bo moved
to Norfolk. If there are twelve con
ventions during the year that Norfolk
wants , and this number is probably
conservative , and each takes say on
; he average of two and one-half days ,
10 will use a month for this branch of
ils work. Of course he must be In
Norfolk when a convention is held
icro to entertain his guests and know
that any little frictions that may arise
do not become congested ; then there
is the road situation , our merchants
will Insist that every road leading Into
the city be placed and kept in good
condition , not only as It nears the town
but clear out past the natural edge of
our territory because It Is the outer
end of this road that pulls the most
business to Norfolk , and there is no
place where the good results of his
work can be seen so plainly or so
quickly as here ; it will be necessary
for him'to personally interview these
road bosses and some others possibly ,
going out once in awhile to get the
work started and even furnish a team
to help it along. My judgment is that
to initiate this work this summer will
require at least ono month and possi
bly two of the secretary's time. Then
there is the street railway bonus to be
raised and by the time he gets the
$3,000 that is said to be In sight for
this purpose he will at least bo out of
wind ; then our sugar factory plant is
to be occupied by some live , going
enterprise , employing say 100 of our
people , and whether this shall be an
other sugar factory or packing house
or n canning factory , a glucose factory
or a brewery or what not , will give him
sonic worriment and use some of his
time ; then , too , the aesthetic side of
the city must bo berne in mind , our
public places Improved if ever so
slightly , and more of them gotten un
der way ; the city library commission
must be ro-lnvlgorated ; In duo time
the legislature must bo , looked after
again , the needs of the asylum pro
vlded for and possibly a normal schoo
picked out of the whirlpools of legls
Intlon ; In fact if the reader will care
fully read over the objects which this
club is aiming at ho will bo convinced
that any secretary who will conscien
tiously try to follow these suggestions
will surely have no sinecure. These
Horns of work mentioned are of
course only a part of It , and are really
only preliminary to his really Import
ant duty which is to get a railroad
rate here that will of itself establish
wholesale and Jobbing houses and
among other things will compel the
erection of now depots or possibly a
grand union that will bo a great plea-
Hiiro and convenlenco to us all. A
railroad rate that would glvo Norf61k
merchants at least as good a chance j .1 J.
to do business In the territory as those * ' * '
of Omaha or Sioux City , would directly
be worth much to them , therefore to
us all , besides paving the way for big
ger thing that will eventually como
along and bring a city. "

PETITION GOES TO COUNCIL NEXT
THURSDAY NIGHT.
MAYOR WANTS ANOTHER BLOCK
The Petition Asking That Norfolk AVenue -
enue be Paved From ! First to Sljtth
Street Is to be Presented Next Thurs
day Hope for Work In Summer.
The petition asking that Norfolk av
enue be paved will be presented to
the city council at its meeting next
Thursday evening.
This petition was circulated last fall
by C. E. Burnham and A. II. Klesau ,
who gave two days of their time to
the cause , and enough signatures of
property owners were secured to com
ply with the law and make legal an
ordinance which it is asked that the
city council pass. This petition pro
vided for paving between First and
Sixth streets.
It Is possible that another block may
be added to his paving district by an
other petition , as many desire that the
block between Sixth and Seventh
streets , which is occupied by railroad
tracks , shall also be paved. Mayor
Friday is in favor of this and says ,
that he shall insist that this block bo S
paved as well as the portion from
First to Sixth streets.
The petitioners are anxious that an
ordinance be passed so that paving
may be done during the coming sum
mer.
