As for the thousand or more Imilans

Wakefleld Beautifully Situated.
Wakolleld is beautifully situated. It
Is not picturesque , bill It Is certainly
iioro sightly than the average Ne
braska lown. It Is built on a mound
.vllh the ground sloping In all four dl-
eclloii ! ' . For drainage , Wakollold ban
nosl Nebraska towns "skinned , " mi
'eiffl it should so grow that It would
lot Into the bottom lands. Necessnr
ll.v Ihe railroad depot Is In n hollow.
Business Houses Substantial.
'Pile business houses of Wakollohl
are substantial and mostly located on
the main street the street loading
from Iho depot. The resilience dls
trict Is more compact than Norfolk's
ind consequently more sightly ,
'awns and jards are neatly kept.
U'nkeflold merchants have one ad
/an'ago ' over those moM towns of Iho
m.no sb.e business is not overdone
There is compellllon , but no one is
Ving crowded to the wall.
A Prosperous Section.
H is evident that a town dependent
ilono on an agricultural communlt * *
annot pros'-er unless the surround
'ng ' country is piosporous. Wakelieli
is in I ills enviable situation. The
"amis " of McLean county , iho baiinoi
ounty of Illinois , are no more fertile
'ban Iho 1 uids surrounding Wukofiold
Pile land Is rolling. Some of hot loir
'amis ' , tco wet for Brain , grow luvur
'am ' ci ops of wild and tame grass
The host corn yields this season wore
.111 the high lands. This was because
) f the abnormal moisture on low lain
'n planting and growing tlmo.
Farm lands around Wakofleld sH
'or $ GO to $110 an aero , depending or
muroveirents p.irl character of the
oil. Hoconily u farm four and a hnl
nllos fiom to.vn brought $95 an aero
Heretofore many range cattle have
; eon fattened around Wakefleld
There is lens stock raising this yoni
Sinn formerly , owin ? lo ihe high con
irlcos , farmers referring lo sell their
nun Instead of feeding it to stock.
Alfalfa "Winter Killed. "
Not much alfalfa Is raised around
\Vakcllold. \ Many small Holds wore
lanlod a few years ago. Some stir
'ivod , and but others "winter 1:111 :

lid not replant.
Wakefield Institutions.
Wakofleld lin ? a population o
round 1,000 , although It claims more
uimo patriotic citi/.ons claiming 1,200
't owns its own gas and water plants
ind an auditoiium in which the pub
'lc library is located. As proud ns its
joople are of those utilities , they tak
qual pride in their cemetery , with
'Is well kept burial lots and expensive
r.onumontfi. The cemetery is one o
ho show places of Wakofleld. A nove
"onI lire is that lot owners are nssossec
'or the maintenance of the grounds
The mowing of lawns and beautifying
if the lots is therefore general , in
toad of individual , as is the cuslon
. Isewhoro.
A Dry Town'
It is nearly three vonrs since saloon

Some farmers bojcolled WaUofluh
vlicn saloons wore abolished , but mos
if thorn drifted back to do their trad
ng and soil their grain. Wakefield r
ssenllnlly n SwodUh community , Ilia
lenient outnumbering other national

Drv Out Not Parched.
Wakofleld Is dry , but it is not parch
Ml , by any moans. Hilly Sunday boor
i supposedly a temperance beverage
's ' sold there. It is a nem-lntnxlcnnt
H least. It comes within the fedora
egulatlons as oontulnlng loss than r.

Wakollold Is Iho homo of John 1)

f Philo Graves , who donated n walnn
rove of several ncro3 for park pur

'ost popular man in town. Ho i >

SOLOMON'S CAMPAIGN EFFORT.
Written la Rebuke Israel's ' King for
Profllgacyi Says Prenchcr.
SI. Louis , Mo. , Oct. ( ' . . That ming of
Solomon wits not written by Solomon
at Hll. tint was a political campaign
lociiment penned by some skillful poet
of the time , with the object of expos-
ng the prolllsic ) of the lsriu lltl h
dug. was tin- startling declaration of
lev. W. 0. P.lltlng , pastor of the Sec-
ind Llaptlst church , In an address be
fore the llaptlst Ministerial nssocla-
ion last night.
Ass-illltiK the general accepted view-
hat the song was written by Solomon ,
aiii' refers to the mystical marriage of
l ho church and Christ , Dr. Hilling ar-
1'iiod that It In a beautiful love story
iilined to rebuke the evils rampant In
Solomon's court , and written by a po
litical critic. This critic , nald the pas
tor , shows the plaintive sorrow of the
shulaiuilc woman of northern Pales
tine crying for her beloved and trying
to escape the attempted enforced lux
ury of court life for the sake of the
mountains and her shepherd lovers.
"It was written , " said the doctor ,
"to expose the piolllgate monarch.
Solomon , you remember , bail 700 wives
and 1100 concubines. The age was a
voluptuous one. The king set a bad
example. The story trios to show the
black background of his lustful life
It Is written to show that In Hie nioiin
tains there slill Is such a thing as
pure , incorruptible human love. "
A Demand for Roons.

JUDGE NORRIS
SPEAKS IN OMAHA ,
Occupancy of Philippines Blow
at Imperialism , He Says.
Omaha. ( ) < ! . * . \Y. K. Norila , form-
eil.v nlYa.vne . and for nine .voais a
jinli-'e In Hie Philippines , } ; avc an ad
dress at the Young Men's Christian
association meeting on the subject ,
"Our Country's Mission In the Orient , "
and declared that Ihe occupation of
the Philippines was the greatest blow
thai America' ' ban struck against im
perialism.
"Tho mission of our country , " said
the Judge , "Is ( o spread liberty and
friM government to alf the people of
the earth , and UIIIH carry on the great
vvoik we have boon doing since Ihe
loiindlng of iho government. "
lie then told how. starting with tlu >
declaration of Inilfpondonoo , the Unit
ed States had boon striking blows nt
Imperialism , so that formal govern
iiient was growing constantly weaker ,
while the democracies were growing
over stronger , almost every country
on Iho American continent being it
republic.
Ho attributed the tendencies in ICiv-
rope to give the people more powe.v ,
to the influence of the United .Stales.
lie said Hint the declaration of in
dependence , the Monroe doctrine , tin-
civil war , llio Spanish war , and the
occupancy of the Philippines wore all
blows against Imperialism , but iho lasl
was the greatest.
President Sherman of the first com
mission , I'o mild , was In favor of Im
mediate Independence , saying , "Why
not give the people what they want ,
not what we think they want ? "
He cltod the different tribes in the
Philippines , which cover more terri
tory than this slate , and have a popu
lation of 7,000,000 , tolling of all the
classes from the head hunters to the
civilized merchants , and of the two
political parlies , the Independents and
V
the piogrosslves , and said tjmt if
would lie Impossible to give the people
ple what they want.
Speaking of the remark which hns
boon made , "why should they not bo
governed by an oligarchy of educated
Filipinos , instead of by nn oligarchy
of Americans ? " he said : "ICvoryonn
knows that the educated Filipinos are
nol equal to educated Americans , and
one doesn't have to cross the ocean to
find that out. "
Ho said that land owners would he-
the ruling class , and that the people
under them , routing from them , who
had never hoard of the governor general -
oral , would cut off another man's head
at the owner's bidding.
He denied that there was a trace of
Imperialism In the war or the occupa
tion of the Philippines , In the substi
tution of the civilized government of
it republican nation , for that of an im
perial one , or in the lalslng the stan
dard of llio people , so that they might
govern themselves.
"The American people don't want to
keep the Philippines , and would bo
glad' to lot them go , but a generalIcn
bonce the people will look back and
nee that we did not want to hold them ,
but that H was the destiny ordained
by fro Almighty God. Different from
all else in the history of Iho world , wu
nro holding the islands not for 1hu
Americans , lint for the Filipinos. "
He spoke of ( ho work of Iho Young
Men's Christian association In Manila ,
and of the good Influences .spread by
the tonchors. which wore being felt
In all parts of Iho world.
