no ho subject of nuuli fritioiwm was

tho people of the state
Tlmt ho was a stern tlisYiplliuuian is
no doubt true but It Is due to that mili
tary vifior and drill that tho First Ne
braska has boon able to distinguish it
self as tunouKst the most intrepid of all
tho volunteer regiments in tho east
Hut ho was more than adiseipllnarlan
If he asked much
Ho was a truo soldier
of others he asked no less of himself
He died a heros death at tho head of
his troops doliiKduty for tho lla ho
promised to defend
Not only for him but for Lieutenant
Sisson and the other bravo men dead
nnd wounded who hnve honored Ne
braska by their horoio devotion to tho
republic a grateful people will hold a
lartfo place in their hearts
The memory of such must abide
Nebraska will honor its noblo sons
Their saciidces make dearer to us the
folds of Old ilory
Thoy are a pilcolcss horitane and as
such will bo accepted by tho noneration
which they have so bravely served
We cannot understand now why it
should all bo but somo day in thought
of a bettered and more enlightened hu

will rejoice because of tho brave deeds
of tho noblo Nobraskans and other
Americans who have fallen at Munila

It was the nerviest act of the

during tho nest two years real estate

Tho work dono under General Woods

among tho bonofaetors of tho race Jt
is almost mni vellous that such a change
could have been brought about in so

courago to deal with present conditions
and good common sense combined can
remove mountains of dilllculties
Tho tri contenary of Oliver CromwoUs
birth1 which has just been obsei 0 in
England and this country has called
out widely differing estimates of his
character All admit however that
whatever dofects ho may have possesed
ho impressed his rugged personality on
his ago as no other man did and
changed tho ov ront of Englands life
from that which was baso to that which
was noble J f ho was despotic it was
in behalf of mens liberty and recogni
tion of him today is such as only comes
to great souls
The 10th session of the Trans-Mississippi
Commercial congress will bo held
at Wichita Kansas Mny til luuo 1
and H Tho object of this congress is to
promote tho business interests and de
velop the resources of tho now greater
west Many subjects of vital iutorest
concerning tho welfare of tho western
states will bo considered Among them
Irrigation aud tho Arid Hegions
Improvements of Western Rivers
Water Transportation Mouey
Agriculture Our Trade aud How to
Increase it Many of the most emi

in the discussions A rate of one and
one third fare has been secured from
the railroads for all who desire to at
tend
Incipient booms for speakership of the
house of representatives are springing
tip on every side now that the report
that Hon Thomas B Reed will resign
seems to be confirmed Among those
most prominently mentioned are Sher
man of New York Hopkins of Illinois
Henderson aud Hepburn of Iowa and
Dave Mercer of this state Mr Reeds
retirement will be a distinct loss to the
couutry Men of such tremendous per
sonality aro rare iu publio life He has
stamped his impress on tho uatioual
legislation of the last quarter of a cen
tury as lew other men have He will
practice law in NowYork iu hopes to
secure iu private life that competence
which rigid adherence to publio duties
has thus far denied him
The vulue of co operation is more aud
more evident in every walk of life
It
Nowhere is this more needed than
in civic nlairs Public sentiment is tho
great motive power after nil which con
trols atVars in tls countiy Hero
conies in the necessity of home training
When children arogonerally taught that
ibiiconiiioii iroort is of imramonnt im
portance and that its maintenance do
ponds largely on thorn then thorn will
bo bettor order and moro tidy streets
In Holginui it is voiy rare to see any
paper or litter upon tho streets Thji
ohthlnm are taught to regard v ldoaiil
ness of evoiy fonn as unpatriotic The
home is the real bulwark not only of
our bortios but our health
The political gossips claim that Thos
H Hoods withdrawal from congress and
locating in Now York Mty is not as dis
interested as it may seem Thoy allege
that ho has entered into a combination
with Tom Piatt to control Now York
state so that its delegation in the next
republican national convention will bo
in favor of Heed for president That is
too much of a fish stoiy tobeliovoonloss
Tom Heeds common senso and Yankee
wit have deserted him If such a hope
is entertained by him it oupht to be
whlspored in his ear that outside of Mr
MeKinloy tho state of Now York and
tho nation has ono favorite who tokos
precedence over all presidential possi
bilities Ho is a younger man and his
name is Theodore Hoosovelt
There is a great deal of energy and
enthusiasm being expended these days
in discussing the expansion of the na
tion Not only aro men discussing tho
question but brave souls over at Manila
are giving up their lives in loyalty and
devotion to the tlag This is commond
able and priisoworthy It is tho glory
of tho republic that it has so many thou
sands whoso fealty to its interests can
not bo questioned Hut along with this
love for ireator America which is so
manifest there is need for a moro in
tonso prido in local atlairs Tho citizen
of Norfolk who is alive to tho highest
welfare of this community will huvo a
very deop practical activo rogard for
everything that effects its prosporlty
Cities and towns are but tho outgrowth
and rolleotion of tho character of the
people who live in them There isnt a
place on tho footstool which is of so
much value or importance to Norfolk
people as Norfolk It behooves each ouo
to do whatever lies in thoir power to
make it tho tidiest most business like
intelligent progressive moral city in
noiiheostorn Nebraska Stand up for
Norfolk
History is always a surprise to thoso
who are engagod in tho making of it
Tho world applauds tho pilgrim futhors
and the other early settlers of tho At
lantic coast as tho founders of a great
nation Yet it never occurred to them
that they were such In their own
minds they wore just a plain common
lot of folks who were determined to bo
freo of tho tyranny of the old world
if it cost privation in the now Tho
men who at Lexington iu 1775 lired
tho shot heard round tho world wero
not aware of it Thoy wero out of pa
tience with a government that had
goaded them to desperation Very few
if any of them were conscious of the ro
siits of their action They scarcely
dreamed of independence That was a
step further than thoy planned to go
When Fort Sumter was tired upon the
most of men rallied to tho support of tho
tlag in order that tho iiou might bo
saved Novertholess tho war resulted in
the overthrow of slavery Tho Spanish
war was begun to free Cuba It has re
sulted regardless of our liking or dislik

responsibility of caring fornudbetteiing
the condition of ten millions of Filipi

tliuoh from tho obligation
Wattcrsons Opinion
Henry Watterson of the Louisville
Courier Journal whose nntiriug devotion
to old timo democracy was tho most
brilliaut and forceful of auy member of
his party discusses Mr Bryans pros
peccts in this fashion
Mr Bryan says ho is stronger than
ho was in lSSfl Ho is stronger iu one
way and weaker in another wny for
nobody fears him any longer He says
the issues of 1801 will bo stronger in
11KX1 That is not tho verdict of ovents
It is uot the record ot the ballot box in
tho stato whero elections have beeu
held The times aro better The pros
pects of the masses of the people ore im
proved New issues have come upon
the scene obscuring if they have not re
tired the old issues and the party iu
power rides a flowing not au ebbing
tide
Mr Bryan may think it safe to insult
all the older tho more conservative aud
thoughtful men of the party Ho may
think that he can afford to tlout tho
young manhood of tho couutry by
mirohing a military service which he
himself abaudoned tho moment he was
ordered on duty But he will find be
fore he is dono with it that he needs all
the votes he can get and if he fails to
get votes enough ho may ascribe it
directly to the wauton affronts which
he is heaping upou men who aro not iu
politics as hois for what they expect
to get out of it but who havo convic
tions of duty who know what is fair
aud just and who leaving tho profee
sioual politicians to their own devices
mean to do what is right though the

While tho Americau soldier is con

people 7000 miles awny in the hope of
giving to them the blessings and privi
leges of the civilization which is our

United States which have occurred

of our claims
Tho brutal lynchings which have
taken place iu Georgia display a savagry
and flendishuess equal to that fouud
nnywhero in tho worlds annals The
men who wero participants in them are
AngloSaxous
Tho terrible nffair is too dreadful in
auy of its phases to contemplate It is
only nu incident however in tno great
problem that uuderlies it
Tho white men of the south havo
thrust upon them iu tho proper treat
ment of the black race ouo of tho great
est burdens ever imposed upon any peo
ple Its full meaning the dwellers in
tho north freed of personal responsibil
ities have been slow to comprehend
It has to do with the whole social
fabric The black men ns a body are
ignorant and sensual in their tendencies
They aro not agreeable neighbors They
aro immoral Many homes of the white
people havo boon ruined by them
This latest outbreak of tho whites was
tho result of most horrible murder and
rapine committed by a negro It is no
isolated case Every thoughtful man
can appreciate what n frenzy any com
munity would bo thrown into when the
poaco and honor of one of its homes were
destroyed in a single hour and death of
pilot families resulted all becauso of
tho baseness of croutures too vile to live
When such scenes aro repeated through
a long 8oiies of years tho aggravation
becomes more acuto nnd indignation is
turned into stolid and abiding hato
It is to tho credit of tho southern press
aud many of its public men that mob
law and lynchings are condemned but
nevertheless iu tho rural districts under
tho provocations ns stated they con
tinue
Tho problem in tho south in regard to
tho negro like that iu tho Philippines
cannot bo ovuded
Unless law can displace mobs unless
courts can rulo not lynching parties
unless tho homo lifo of innocent peoplo
can bo protected from the assaults of tho
depraved base blacks or whites then
it will havo to bo admitted that Anglo
Saxon civilization is a failure and a
farce
The southern problem is in evi
dence moro forcefully today than over
boforo
Tho north has already learned that
tho giving of political power to tho
blacks settled nothing
Tho treatment must bo pursued along
broader lines than that
Thoro should bo no toleration of base
ness on the part of the blacks Thoro
should bo swift condemnation of savag
ery manifested by tho whites Some
whore there should be power enough
exerted to put a stop to tho constant re
currence of theso crimes which make us
blush nnd tremble for tho future At
tho same time a greater spirit of help
fulness nnd sympathy shoud bo shown
theso people both black aud white and
tho whole country should share tho bur
den which is upon them nud strive to
enlighten their mind aud alleviate their
misfortunes
Tho situation calls first of nil for
prompt enforcement of law against all
who folate it regardless of race or col
