America is a tolerably free country when yon think right down to the foun dation of things, and act accordingly.

Dawes is making an active canvass for the United States Senate to succeed Senator Mason of Illinois. Gen. FrrzJOiiN Porter died at his home in Morristown, N. Y., Tuesday, May 21, from chronic diabetes. He was eighty-three years old. For a long time West Point, this state, has been in sore need of rain. They got it Thursday the moisture penetrating a depth of three inches. Dr. Georoe S. Nason, a prominent yonng dentist and clubman of Omaha, shot himself through the head Thursday, death resulting instantly. It creates a very unfortunate condition when a cadet gets an idea that he is at West Point to show how the academy ought to be run instead of to receive in struction. Washington Star. Electric Cars at Albany, New York, while racing for a switch Sunday, run ning in opposite directions, at the rate of forty miles an hour, cost five lives, and forty fatally injured and wounded. Cadet Bowlby of Nebraska, recently dismissed from the military academy at West Point for engaging in hazing, is from Crete, was appointed in 1898, and would have finished his jnrtior year this summer. Sunday at Springfield, Illinois, occur red the funeral of the former governor of Illinois, John R Tanner. The funeral was one of the largest ever held in the state, except that of President Lincoln, April, 1863. The country will heartily approve the course of Secretary Root in sustaining Col. Mills and the other officers in the recent disturbances at West Point acad emy, growing out of the attempt to sup press hazing. New York papers have arranged to report the arrival of incoming steamers from the Nantucket shoals light ship by the Marconi wireless telegraph, telling of their coming fourteen hours before they reach the city. Dr. Wallace of Waverly, Ohio, engag ed in a duel last Thursday night with four robbers, and saved a bank and post olSoe from being robbed. The crooks escaped on a freight train. A trail of blood was some proof that one of his shots hit Thursday morning at 10 the Tennessee river at Knoxville, Tenn., had reached thirty-three feet, the highest known since 1875, when it was thirty-nine feet above low water.

While hunting ducks, an old gun used, exploded at the breech, sending the charge and pieces of the breech into his face, a piece of steel penetrating the skull, making a hole the size of a dollar and lodging in the brain. Down at Beatrice, City Treasurer Saunders presented a petition asking to be reimbursed $150. which he had ntaH for his official bond. Reference was i to the enactment of the last legis lature authorizing the council to pay for oScial bonds. The city attorney will pais an opinion on the proposition. On of the knightliest deeds of Amer ieaa chivalry was that of General Alfred BL Terry at the time of Porter's restoration- A Baajor generalcy in the regular amy was vacant. As the ranking officer, Tarry waived all claims to the office in favor of General Porter. He promptly decliaed it on favor of General Terry, ad accepted a colonelcy on the retired list-Omaha World-Herald. xxxxxxxsooooonsxx Nebraska's most crying need is revi sion of its revenue laws that will enforce the constitutional mandate for equal taxa tion of all property and franchises accord ing to its actual worth. It is encouraging to know that while the "good roads" speakers and writers are agitating the air all over the country, the commissioners of Lancaster county are quietly going ahead with their grad ing machines and making fine new roads at the rate of more than 100 miles a year. They have in all 1,700 miles of road in the county. In a little more than two seasons they have gone over 300 miles of the more important roads with the steam graders, leaving them smooth and hard and high and dry, fit for use in al most any weather. They make a road way forty feet wide, crowning up gently from smooth and regular gutters on each side. This road is so satisfactory and so cheap that it must be considered the permanent road for this part of the state until something better is devel oped. A road can be built in this fash ion for $10 a mile, and kept in repair for a trifle. If the commissioners had $2,000 a mile to spend they could not select a material that would be more satisfac tory under all conditions of weather and travel than the good honest dirt they are now using. The problem is solved for this county, therefore, as well as it can be solved, and there is nothing to do but to keep the steam outfits moving until every main road is finished from Lincoln to the county line. Lincoln Journal. . The smoke of woolen rags is a cure for the most dangerous wounds. A lady of my acquaintance ran a machine needle through her finger. She could not be released until the machine was taken to nieces. The needle had broken in her finger in three pieces, one of which was bent almost double. After repeated trials the pieces were extracted by pin cers, but they were very strongly imbed ded. The pain reached the shoulder, and there was every danger of lockjaw. The woolen rags wi3 put over the coals and she held her finger over the smoke, and in a very short time all the pain was gone and it never returned, though it was some little time before the finger healed. This is but one of the many in stances of such cures, some of them tak ing place several days from the time of the wound. Let woolen rags be kept sacredly and always on hand for wounds. The smoke and stench will fill the house perhaps, but that is a trifle when the al ternative is lockjaw, or even a long, pain ful sequel to a wound. Another instance was the wound made by an enraged cat, which tore the flesh from the wrist to the elbow and bit through the fleshy part of the hand. One ministration of the smoke extracted all pain, which had been frightful. Boston Transcript. The one man now in sight available for the office of President is Theodore Roosevelt, Vice-President of the United States. Mr. Roosevelt is all that Mr. Hanna is not, and a good many other things besides, lie is fearless, uncom promising and absolutely honest in all of his dealings with the public; he has the ability of a statesman, however much he may lack the diplomacy; he has a greater personal following than any other man in the country; he is avow edly antagonistic to trusts, and, as things now stand, he is the logical candidate for the republican nomination in 1901. That he will be opposed by Senator Hanna and Mr. Heath and others of the close corporation which seeks to domi nate the republican party in the country is a foregone conclusion; but the ways of the machine have proved fruitless be fore this, and if the republicans have in mind the interests of the country and party they will, whan the time comes, get behind Theodore Roosevelt and boost him into the presidency no matter what opposition may be encountered. Baltimore American. Stephen Lethebburv is getting more notoriety lately than a congress man. Numerous letters have been pouring in here for several weeks from Mullano Kansas asking all sorts of questions about him. All of which de velops the fact that a very smooth dead beat stayed there several weeks a couple of months ago and represented himself to be Stephen Letherbury of Osceola, Neb. He contracted for a farm and town property, but instead of paying anything down on it borrowed a consid erable 6um on the strength of his talk and then disappeared. He worked the old soldier game to perfection and knew all about the battles which some of Steve's comradett, who live there, had been through and completely fooled everybody. Tuesday evening Stephen got a letter from an old comrade with whom he bunked during the war telling him all the particulars and enclosing several clippings from the local paper there, and from these we are led to won der that he did not beat them out of several times as much as he did. Os ceola Record. Governor Savage was followed nearly to his home at Lincoln the other night from down town by a man who evidently intended robbery. Mrs. David Alexan der and young son, driving along the road in the evening near Octavia, were frightened by a man jumping out from the side of the road, grabbing hold of the horse's reins and demanding that she stop her horse and permit him to ride. But she made good use of the whip, and in the excitement, the horse lunged out of reach ot the villain. Both these inci dents within the past week one in the city, the other in the country. Why not have an emergency police, and make it a little more dangerous to prowl around at night? The government forestry experts, L. C. Miller and B. S. Kellogg, are spending considerable time near Fremont, and re port the finding of a large number of species of trees not very common in other parts of the state. The largest Cotton wood thus far seen by them is one on the banks of Ryan's lake, six miles north east of Fremont It is twenty feet in diameter four feet from the ground. On Hawthorn Island, in the Platte south of tne city, tnirty species of trees were found. ixxxsoeooooooex The Fremont Herald is hereby cau tioned to preserve strictly the truth of history, especially in minor particulars so apt to become distorted. Once upon a time there was a Southern states man found his way to Washington, and was for a while considerably elated be cause of the attention paid him, writing home concerning this, using (if we re member aright) these exact words: "I shall soon be a biger man than old Grant." For our present purpose, it is not the principle that is discussed, but it is the quotation made by the Herald annoys The Journal. We dislike to see that flaming, flaring phrase which flashed over the country that morning like a ray of some new kind of light made nothing of in the form of "a bigger man than Grant." The Journal is sure that he was "a biger man," and that it was ''old Grant." Preserve the truth of history. Embarrassment appears to le the natural concomitant of matrimony. At least thia is true in the incipient stages. Invariably, however,1 there is a striking contrast between the relative composure of the man and tho woman. Both are nervous but never both at the same time. If they come a week beforehand to make arrangements she is rattled and he is cool; whilo on the day of the ceremony she rises to the occasion and he sinks under it. Thus, I have never seen a bride who was scared; I have never seen a groom who was not. Rev. D. M. Steele in Ladies' Home Journal for June. Dr. Carroll of Passaic, N. J, was called to see a little school girl who had been vaccinated, and found that she was suffering with lockjaw. Antitoxin serum was injected into the base of the little one's brain in an effort to save her lite. The operation may be successful, though the little one is in a critical state. She cannot move her jaws, while her arms and body are swollen to a terrible state. Over 350 children have been vaccinated within tho past three weeks by the same physician, and other parents fear that other cases may result fatally. The five West Point cadets dismissed Wednesday have been employed by the New York Asphalt company, through General Francis A. Green, one of the chief officials of the trust. The young men had sought advice of General Green, and he believed they were contrite and repentant. Whenever boys or men will insist that they are a law unto them selves, as well as unto others over whom rightly they have no control, it is well enough to make such a change as will convince them that tyranny is not proper, in this country at least. Ed. Robinson and Jim Minden, two cooks at the Koehler hotel, Grand Island, celebrated pay day by indulging in too much drink. They fought in the kitchen, then out, and back in again, breaking dishes, etc. They were called on by Mr. Coates, the proprietor, to stop their fighting and their destruction of prop erty, but would not, Minden going after Coates with an ax, when the latter in self-defense fired upon them, one after the other, injuring them, but not sup posed fatally. TnE American people will submit to an injustice very gross in its character so long as it remains comparatively un important in its effect, or so long as they are busy with other things of more im mediate consequence. But they are likely at any moment to take very swift and sweeping action to remedy a wrong when they are fully aroused. New York Times. amtnaromtmn wuuimwiuH SbMtttfttal fftntl. iwsi wiwiHiiimiiWHirummmmiiiiiieii Quite a goodly number of Grand Army of the Republic members and their friends attended services Sunday morning at 11 o'clock at the Congrega tional church, Rev. Munro preaching a splendid sermon, from Judges vii, 18: "The Sword ot the Lord and of Gideon." Special music was furnished for the oc casion by the choir, Messrs. Hickok and Gleason, and Mrs. Gleason, Mrs. Geer and Miss Galley, the last named render ing a very appropriate vocal solo, with accompaniment on the organ by Mrs. Geer. The Journal noticed eo soon as the warm weather set in that the gentle men of the road were at their usual tricks of making a living withont giving any equivalent for it Their schemes are not entitled to' the credit of being origi nal, only a little different from what have been worked before, bnt there is one safe rule for the whole bad brood of them, and that is to have nothing what ever to do with them, first or last. One of our exchanges gives this account: "A venerable swindle has -been revived suc cessfully among farmers in northern Missouri. A pretended wheat bnyer approaches a farmer and offers to pur chase all the wheat be'has to sell at $1 per bushel. The farmer signs an agree ment to deliver the grain at the nearest market at a certain time. Later the supposed agreement tarns up in the form of duly signed notes for from $35 to $100. C. J. Garlow returned Friday from his eastern trip, passing one night at his old home near Fairmont, West Vir ginia, where he left his daaghter for an extended visit with relatives. Most of his time was passed in committee work prior to, and in the, national convention of the Woodmen of the World, held at Columbus, Ohio. A number of new laws were recommended for passage by the committee, also" amendments, the most important being with reference to assessments, and to placing the order on a more solid financial basis. There were delegates present from nearly every part of the United States. The increase in membership the last two years has been eighty thousand. Texas alone has forty thousand members. Mr. Garlow speaks well of the city of Columbus, but one can readily see that Nebraska is upper most in his thoughts, whenever living and business are spoken ot MEMORIAL DAY UNDER AUSPICES OF BAKER POST, NO. 9, G.

Louie, the eldest of the two sons of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Schwarz died at the family residence Thursday morning, at 11:15, after a four weeks serious illness, with complication of bowel and kidney troubles. Louie was born in Columbus July 23, 188G and has lived here all his life. He was known among his acquaint ances as an uncommonly seriouB, studi ous boy, and beloved by his playmates for his gentle ways. His parents had many plans for bis future and have the sympathy of their friends in the hours of their affliction. Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the German Lutheran church, Rev. Miessler preaching the sermon, after which the body was interred in the Col umbus cemetery. The school mates, Prof. Rothlightner's class marched from the church to tho cemetery in a body. The floral offerings were numerous and beautiful. A few friends lined the grave with flowers.

Maher on Wednesday sold his span of black driving horses to Mr. Sher wood of. the Walrath & Sherwood Lum ber Co., of North Bend. The price paid was $325, and the gentleman bought them cheap, considering all their good qualities. Ed. drove them to North Bend yesterday to deliver them. Communicated. Sunday Desecration. Our city mayor has taken his stand with Sunday desecration; as he could not legally issue a special license, for a ball-play show, on Sunday, May 26, 1901, he permitted law-breakers of Columbus and David City to have it all their own way in this city, under the protection of our police. Now that permission and that show was not only a breaking of the Lord's commandment, a transgression of the State law, but, being on Pentecost Sun day, it was also an offence against the Third person of the Trinity, and being on Memorial Sunday, it was an insult to our flag and to all the men who helped to preserve the Union, whether living or dead. It has been a bad object lesson to the youth of this city, creating or fostering in them, disrespect for all law, as it is not worse in the eye of the law, to steal a horse than it is to rob law-abiding citi zens of the. peace and quiet of the Sab bath day, aa provided by law. If this kind ot business is carried on any further, it is an open invitation for the violators ot law from all parts ot the state to make Sunday desecration in Columbus a weekly occurrence. ' To prevent such things, the law-abiding citizens of Columbus should at once form themselves into an organization for the enforcement of law. H. T. Spoxsst. j tf fff CfCt 3 fkrsfital fiefttffn.
