An Absolute Heed for Tears, Begins
to be met This Month, and Will
Beqoire Millions of Dollars.
The Union Pacific has this month be
gun the great task of double tracklaying
its one thousand miles of line between
Omaha and Ogden. Because of the
topography of tho route through which
the road passes this becomes almost as
gigantic a task as the original construc
tion of the road, It is not intended to
make much publicity of tho double
tracking, as it will not be completed un
der two years. The work is to be done
in sections, probably a dozen gangs
working on different parts of the road
at the same time. The first piece of
double tracking is now being done be
tween Cheyenne and Sherman Hill, a
distance of 50 miles. This will enable
the company to get its heavy freight
and passenger trainB over one of the
worst places on the road. While the
double tracking is under way the kinks
in the line will be taken out and many
of the roundabout curves abandoned.
It is believed the road will bo shortened
nearly forty miles as compared to the
original survey. Several tunnels will
be cut down, while in other plaices there
will bo new tunnels to overcome grades
and curves. It is a piece of work that
involves a vast consumption of money,
engineers estimating that tho company
will spend 35,000,000 for grading and
preliminary work, to say nothing of the
cost of materia, rails and ties. This
work also contemplates the enlarging of
every bridge on the road. Railroad
World.
Goveunou Tanner of Illinois, in his
admirable address delivered Tuesday of
last week at Charleston, Illinois, at the
dedication of the Esistern Illinois State
Normal school, emphasizes the import
ance of teaching the elements of agri
cultural science, a sentiment that needs
practical expression everywhere, in the
adoption of courses of study, employ
ment of teachers, and in the actual work
of the school-room. The governor pro
ceeded to say:
"Too long this has been neglected.
Ours is pre-eminently an agricultural
and horticultural state. A main source
of our wealth is our soil. It is in the
interest of the state as well as of the in
dividual owner that its fertility be main
tained. To do this it must be 'manured
with brains.' Our young people who
are to become the tillers of the soil must
be so educated that they can read intel
ligently and appreciate the literature
of the farm, including the reports from
tho experiment stations as well as the
practically scientific parts of the best
farm journals. Theso young people
must be mainly reached through the
country schoolhouses. Are the teachers
that are now going out from our normal
schools prepared to give instruction in
these subjects? Have they been taught
agricultural chemistry and animal and
vegetable physiology?"
A Cross-Eyed View.
The Chicago Inter Ocean sums up
Bryan's Omaha platform thus:
He believed in the war, but was
against its results.
He loved the volunteers, but was
against their achievements.
He wanted peace, but repudiated the
treaty for peace.
He revered the Hag, but wished to see
it hauled down.
He respected the government, but
would not maintain its authority against
rebels.
He loved the fathers, but detested
their policy of annexation.
And the Inter Ocean is right in its
estimate of the man, the reason being
that Mr. Bryan, in his thinking, is like
a house divided against itself, or like a
man with cross eyes.
The Inter Ocean of last Wednesday
gives expression to a sentiment that is
very general in the whole United States
just now:
The Nebraska volunteers are back in
the corn belt again this morning, more
strongly impressed than ever that God's
country lies directly west of the Mis
souri, between the northern boundary
of Kansas and the southern boundary
of South Dakota. And, considering the
fact that their state has raised 300,000,
000 bushels of corn this year and is go
ing to fatten more cattle this fall than
any other commonwealth on earth, they
are not so very far from being pretty
near right.
Marquis Ito has often been styled
"the Bismarck of Japan," and his late
achievements seem only to add to the
appropriateness of the appellation. The
new alliance between Japan and China
is likely to be of untold benefit in many
ways to both countries, and must be
especially gratifying to China, which
was about to be gobbled up by Russia
and others. Whip a people and then
make that people an ally to carry out
your schemes, is not so bad a policy as
might at first appear. It worked well in
Prussia's case, and we believe it will be
so in that of Japan.
The country will hail with gladness
the order that hazing at the government
military academy must cease. Philip
Sheridan Smith, a cadet at West Point,
who was appointed by Congressman
Sutherland of this state in 1897 and
whose home is at Juniata, Neb., was
summarily dismissed last Thursday upon
the order of the secretary of war for the
hazing of a "plebe." It was not his first
offense.
The Nebraska City News with a grave
and virtuous air makes this declaration:
The democratic state convention at
Omaha laid down the law that no man
holding office in the state of Nebraska
shall ride on a railroad pass or accept
telegraph or telephone franks. That
settles it.
The fusion party came into power on
the anti-pass issue. But that didn't
"settle it." After getting into office
every f usionist in the state house, except
Sam Lichty,.went round with his pockets
bulging with free transportation. And
Silas was reputed to be the most per
sistent pass begger in the lot Lincoln

Admiral Dewey arrived at Gibraltar
Monday morning, 9:15. He is slightly
indisposed, and intends living ashore
during his stay. The Olympia is ex
pected to sail September 11 direct for
New York.
Sunday night, about midnight, John
Mullane, a plumber, was struck in the
middle of the forehead by a hammer
supposed to have been thrown by Tbos.
Bainbridge. He will probably die. The
deed was done in a row on the Midway,
Omaha.
The warm words of appreciation of
the good work that patriotic soldiers
can do, uttered by President Lincoln at
Gettysburg, echoed in sentiment by
President McKinley at Pittsburg to the
returning soldiers from the Philippines,
are being re-echoed all over the country
by its loyal citizens.

The Houring mill at Albion, which
was burned down Monday night of last
week, was worth $20,000, insured for
two-thirds that sum. It was thought
for a while that tho elevator containing
about 14,000 bushels of wheat was sure
to go, tho force of water being a little
short of reaching it, but, says the Albion
News, "Louie Clark screwed down the
governor on the engine, which was work
ing at direct pressure, and the result
was satisfactory, the water going clear
over the tall structure." Between two
and three thousand dollars worth of
flour in an ad joining store-room was also
destroyed.
John M. Curtis is rather a large
customer to be attacked by a kissing
bug, but so it was Monday. It didn't
touch him on the lips, however, perhaps
because he uses tobacco, but kioked
him on the neck it wrs a sting instead
of a bite. "Fatty" went to a doctor to
see about it, (the thrust produced a sharp
stinging pain and caused considerable
swelling) but that individual was bo in
terested in the insect that he was about
to become unconscious of "Fatty's pres
ence altogether, when John called him
to time by saying the bug would surely
die, but he would like to know whether
the bug's victim could pull through. A
few drops of medicated juice allayed the
pain. Under the glass the bug is a
formidable looking insect.
"Nothing is more eloquent than the
facts," is the way Dun's Review for Au
GuBt 26 begins its weekly account of
business' and finance. As to affairs in
general, it has this: "Business is running
beyond expectations in almost every
direction, with the striking feature that
in almost all lines it is pushed forward
by a consuming demand far beyond
speculative ideas. Neither is the buying
usually due to prospects of higher prices
in the future, but is mainly because
buyers must have the goods in order to
meet the demands on them, in many
cases paying premiums for quick deliv
ery which cut into expected profits.
There is unusual freedom from labor
disputes, the chief trouble in very many
quarters being that enough hands can
not be found to do all the work. In
many parts of the West women are en
gaged in harvest and farm work to an
extent never before seen."

O. E. Stearns, formerly this county,
residing in what is now known as Grand
Prairie township (in the former days as
Stearns Prairie precinct), was in the city
Thursday as one of Fullerton's com
mittee of reception for the returning
soldiers. Along in the TO's he kept
what he called the Half-way house, be
tween Columbus .and Madison, a place
where hundreds of people traveling over
the then very sparsely settled region,
found good lodging and food for them
selves and teams. Mr. Stearns looks
much as he used to do, only grayer, and
says that at the late reunion he was
recognized by a number of Grand
Army comrades of the Elkhorn valley
who had stopped with him at the Half,
way house, but' whose faces he had him
self forgotten, although he remembered
them by their voices, as he used to
recognize them when they would come
to his place in the night and rouse him
from his slumbers. Mr. Stearns was a
correspondent for The Jourkaij in those
early days, his letters, as we now look
back over them, forming a very good
history of the progress of that locality.
He was glad to see the Fullerton sol
diers returning, but sorry that his own
son was not of their number, having
laid down his life in the service of his
country.

No more the bugle's brazen blast
Calls up the serried ranks of battle men
To go where bullets flying thick and fast
Give promise none of safe retain again.
But in the habiliments of men
Who stanch and steadfast stood aad won the
ngnt.
Come greetings from your friends at home again
That bid you banish warfare from your sight.
Depending not upon the iron shard.
Nor shot, nor shell, nor yet strategic move.
Nor shedding blood upon the flowered sward.
Will we oar greatness as a nation prove.
And in the time when Peace subdues the earth.
And garners for our good her blessing fair.
Let us remember you as men of worth
Who of all blessing earned the fullest share.
State's Reception to Fint V ebraska .
The State Reception to the returned
First Nebraska regiment that will be
held at Lincoln September 13, 14 and 15,
will doubtless be the greatest patriotic
demonstration in the history of Nebras
ka. The citizens of Lincoln have con
tributed largely and freely, that the re
ception may be made all that money can
make it, and the people of the state can
do the rest.
Every member of the regiment will
have his railroad fare paid to and from
Lincoln; he will be given the best to
eat that Lincoln ladies can furnish, and
every line of entertainment will be his.
The Annual Grand Army Reunion
with thousands of veterans of the civil
war in attendance will be held at the
same time.
The State Encampment of the regi
ment of the National Gnard is held the
same week.
Soldiers of the Second and Third
regiments will be present from all sec
tions of the state.
The Military Parade on the 14 will be
the greatest of its kind ever held in the
west and the return of the flag of the
First regiment to the Governor at the
close of the parade will bean interesting
feature. The battle of Manila will be
put on on the nights of the 13, 14 and 15
at the fair grounds and it will be pre
sented as never before with a display of
fireworks but seldom seen in a lifetime.
Low excursion rates will be given on
all roads reaching Lincoln and none
should miss the great week at the State
Capital.
The soldiers of the First regiment will
be rested from their long journey home
and first home greetings will be passed.
They will all be at Lincoln and tho peo
ple of the state should meet them by
thousands and tens of thousands.
District 44 and Vicinity.
O. McGann is thinking of building a
new barn on his premises.
M. Sheedy is building a new barn 24x
24x12, and John Griffin, son of P. S.
Griffin, is the carpenter.
At the rate seed wheat is taken from
Home Farm, there will be none for
bread. A local ad. in The Journal did
it.
George Lusche has raised his dwelling
house on farm, built an addition thereto
and is painting everything np in good
colors.
Everybody expects to be in town this
Wednesday to participate in honoring
the soldiers of the First Nebraska. "So
may it be."
Oh, yes, I came near forgetting to re
port barley, for 'tis from that we get our
beer. Barley was a good crop of grain,
but all colored.
School began here Monday, with Miss
Hoehen of Columbus as teacher. We
hear that school commenced in the Reed
school house also, last Monday, with
Miss Elliott teacher.
And now we have it from good au
thority that we must pay 15 per cent
more for all agricultural implements,
farm wagons and machinery next year,
than this. We would like to stand up
for Nebraska without feeding a trust.
Cornwell & Sons were threshing at
John Browner's Saturday, with their
new straw blower. We also noticed a
steamer threshing on Dr. Evans' farm
oast of city, and another steamer at
work on what looked to be the Win.
Meays' place.
There are no peaches, few apples and
plums. Of pumpkins, squashes and
melons there are thousands. Corn is
good, but that which was checked is
badly down on upland. Oats good,
spring wheat good, rye poor, and fall
wheat almost nothing.
Time is precious with the farmer just
at this season, with hay stacking, and
grain to thresh, fall plowing and seed
ing, and there are those weeds that we
intended to cut along the road and fence
lines. It is pretty late, but down they
come, and next time we will strike them
earlier, and before they go to seed.

The Preparatory School.
Many county superintendents and
principals the past year have expressed
to Director Wallace their appreciation
of the work done at the Preparatory
School to the State University at Lin
coln. They recognize that it supplies
the lacking link between the smaller
schools and the University. Several
principals have asked for announce
ments to distribute to their students,
as they wished them to finish prepara
tion for the University. During the
year, nine principals, three city school
superintendents, numerous other teach
ers and deficient University students
attended advanced classes in this school.
Students feom eighth grade and country
schools enter the lower classes and com
plete the work in one and one-half to
two years, thus saving two years or
more of time and consequent expense.
