Church of Lincoln has been appointed state oil inspector. During 1902 Omaha bandied 1,010,815 cattle, 2247,018 hogs, 1,74239 sheep and 42,079 hones and mules. The funeral of the late Governor De Forrest Richards of Wyoming was held at Cheyenne Thursday last The last quarterly report of the banks of this state showed deposits to the amount of $37,106,02088, a very credita ble showing. A BAXoof thirty Sioux Indians were loaded at Gordon, this state, one day last week bound for Chicago, there to join some wild west show. What is thought to be the largest ieM of alfalfa in the world is that on the Wilson ranch near Kearney this state, which contains 3,000 acres. Ax Independent telephone company has entered South Omaha. The incor porators will invest $100,000 in the con cern and will make a rate 25 per cent lower thanthe Nebraska company. It is possible that the surplus accumu lations of the national treasury for the current year will reach the sum of $50, 000,000, as the $35,000,000 figure has been passed with two months yet to be counted in. Reports from many points in northern Ohio show that the temperature Saaday night fell below freezing and that frait tress and early vegetables suffered much damage thereby. In central and north era New York a destructive frost is also reported. Thousands of poor Jews have fled from Kieffe, European Russia, because of a report that an anfcaraute crasade is imminent. The richer Jews have left their houses and have sought refuge in the botela In order to allay the excite ment, troops are patroling the street. Rot A. Wilsox of Kearney has began a movement for some experiments which will be watched with interest by bee men of the state. He has contracted for a car-load of honey bees which be expects to put on his alfalfa ranch to note the rssalt of using alfalfa as a honey pro ducing plant. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat ob serves that American fanners are such successful wheat growers that 50 per cent of the crop goes abroad. England alone paid $67,000,000 for American wheat in 1901. The present prospect is that our wheat harvest of 1903 will be a record breaker. President Roosevelt was treated to a 'cowman's breakfast at Hugo, Colo, Monday morning. A mess tent had been erected at the side of the track, and when the president's train arrived break fast was ready. It was partaken of standing and then the president shook hands with his guests. The train pulled out amidst a chorus of cowbow yells. The Kohl Torpedo factory at Case avenue and Crane streets, Cleveland, Ohio, blew np shortly after noon Mon day, resulting in the loss of several lives. A large number of persons are reported injured. The explosion was' terrific and the factory was completely demolished. Several nearby buildings were also de stroyed and windows broken oat in the entire neighborhood. The grand commandery by the Knights Templar of California has de cided that hereafter no wine shall be served at Knights Templar banquets. It is ssid that the grand lodge of Masons at its annual meeting next October will take the same decisive action and order that all banquets given under the aus pkes of any Masonic lodge of that state be strictly temperate. A Frewont man baa married several wassen without going through the for mality of securing divorces or waiting for one to die before taking another. He is now up against it good and hard, sad the law is right after him. Of course the law part of it is a mare matter of form, bat when seven wives duly loaded with wrath get after a man he will find relief in the penitentiary. Beatrice Sun.

W. Clark introduced asBotioa before that body to make the Telegram the oaVial paper for the com iag year. The motion was seconded by Phillipps. Mr. Galley spoke frankly upon the subject, ssying that he thought the printing should be left to bids from the dafsrsnt newspaper oftcee; that it wasa matter of business for the city and that all the papers represented tax pay ers and were therefore entitled to recogr nition. The motion presented by Mr. dark named no rate for which the print ing should be done, and all supposed it to be at the full legal rate, although the Telegram had been receiving one-half the legal rate the past year for the work performed. Mr. Clark contended that the city should pay full legal rate for the printing, and said that the council should have the city work done in good form, and he thought it was not customary for the council to let the work to bids. Galley and Sheldon both said that the council were there to demand good ser vice, that any of the printing offices were Tenable, and Mr. Galley referred the council to the action of the board in years past when the republicans held the balanoeof vote, and when they had let the work to the lowest bidder. Galley offered an amendment to the resolution of Mr. Clark to offer the printing to the lowest bidder. The amendment carried, Galley, Sheldon and Greisen voting for, Clark and Phillipps voting against The notice was legally published in the next two issues of the Telegram, and bids were filed by the Argus, Telegram and Journal publishers, with the city clerk. At the meeting of the council last Friday evening, when the clerk announc ed that the bids bad been filed with him. Mayor Becher asked what the wish of the council was. Phillipps made a motion to the effect that the bids be indefinitely laid upon the table without reading and that the Telegram be made the omcial paper and to be given the city printing at three-fourths of the legal rate. The motion was seconded by Clark. Galley offered an amendment by request ing that the bids be ordered read, and the amendment was lost. When the vote was east the Telegram received the sup port of all the democrats, Clark, Greisen, Geitzen and Phillipps, while Galley and Sheldon voted against the motion. The legal printing amounted to be tween $150 and $200 the past year. As Mr. Howard ssys in the last issue of the Telegram under an editorial entit led "Some Day," The best public official is the one who best guards the interest of the people." It is a good motto to follow by all. Tote fair, boys; an open field without favor will injure no one. NEWSPAPERS AND THE FAR MERS. An exchange very sensibly remarks that it is high time that newspapers look elsewhere than to farmers for subjects for jests and cartoons. In this country there are upward of 6,000,000 of fanners who own their own land, their hones, cattle, sheep and hogs and the aggregate of their wealth is greater than the com bined richness of the steel trust, the Standard Oil company and of all the railroads of the United States. They live comfortably and they enjoy life. Place them side by side with city people and they will compare most favorably with these in intelligence and in educa tion. They are sensible and conserva tive. They believe in law and order. They select good men as candidates for office and usually elect such. All of their influence is cast for what is best in manhood and they are intensely patriot ic. Aa a class, they are just, upright and honest. Newspapers which hold them up to ridicule belittle themselves when they do it. Farmers are readers of newspapers, snd above any other class are educated to rely upon advertise ments to tell them where to go snd buy goods. J. C. F. McKesson, of Emerald, Nebr., who is a large grower of fruit was inter viewed by the State Journal just after the severe storm of last week aa to dam age done and he gave his opinion as fol lows: "It looks as if considerable dam age would be done," said Mr. McKessoc I have just come in from observing the restber conditions. The ground is frosen and ice baa formed a quarter of aa inch in thickness. Not much corn has been pbmted but what little is in the ground is liable to rot with so much moisture. Where the wheat is not cov ered with snow, I fear some damage will result but this will not be serious. The apple crop will probably be seriously affected bat cherries and peachea are more hardy and I look for less damage to these fruits. Strawberries were in blossom and considerable damage to them may result. If they are covered over with snow and all the snow is allow ed to melt undercover less damage will result The price of corn will probably go up because of the poor conditions and there being little planted to injure, the end may not be ao bad after all. I went out this morning to plant corn but the conditions were such that I attempted nothing. Very few farmers have any in the ground. This is the worst storm so late in the season that I remember. In mm aA ibio uurty years ago we aad a raging buzzard on April 14 to 16 when stock perished and there was some loss of life. Not snee then has there bean a severe snow later than thai date. I guess this will est a record for Nebraska." Tarn Union Pacific ia Basking special arrangements for the transportation of the forty-five Germans who are coming to,tbis country next aaoath toatudythe agricultural spaditioas scientifically.

Those who are intending to prepare aa exhibit for the Winter Corn Show in January, 1904, and who are not familiar with the manner in which the corn waa judged at aha- last exhibit will be inter ested in knowing upon what basis .the awards are made. Ten ears of corn con stitute an exhibit. Any variety ie eligi ble to entry provided a standard has been adopted for it by the Corn Improv ers' Association. Vsrieties for which standards have already been .adopted msy be obtained from the secretary. Anyone wishing to enter a variety not.in this list may have a atandard set by sending five typical ears to ths secretary not later than one week before the exhibit opens. Each exhibit is judged ia aeoordanoe with the atandard for .the variety it represents. Aa exhibitor 'can enter only one' exhibit of any variety. He therefore has only one chance at the premium money for each variety entered. There is no reason therefore why anyone having corn capable of scoring over seventy per cent should not draw some premium money. Let everyone prepare to raise the best corn his farm has ever produced to win premiums at the Ne braska Corn Show next January and to represent him and Nebraska at. the St. Louis World's Fair nexVyear. Remem ber this is the last chance to get ready for St. Louis. These suggestions are made by T. L. Lyon, secretary, Lincoln, Nebraska. Charles M. Harvey in World's Work ssys that the states and territories of the Louisiana purchase produced 264)00,000 bushels of wheat in 1900, valued at $152, 000,000 more than halt of the wheat crop of the whole United States; 1,013, 000,000 bushels of corn, or 48 per cent of the country's product; 38 per cent of the country's oats. The wheat, corn, oats, rye, barley, cotton, hay and potatoes produced in this region in 1900 brought $755,000,000, and its farm animals were valued at $825,000,000, 38 per cent of those of the whole country.

Saturday afternoon the Woman's club held their last general meeting for the year at the home of the president, Mrs. L. Gerrard. The meeting was entirely of a business nature, to finish up the work for the year. There were a few changes made in the constitution and by-laws, principally in the enforcement of dues of the members. Mrs. Tlerrick proposed that the club take up the matter of purchasing a drinking fountain for the city park, but no definite action was taken. The following named ladies were elect ed as officers for the coming year: Pres ident, Mrs. Geer; vice president, Mrs. Garlow; recordingsecretary, Mrs. Rorer; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Musser; treasurer, Mrs. Post; delegates to State Federation, whioh meets in Fremont, Mrs. Gerrard and Miss Sheldon. The club tendered a vote of thanks to Mrs. Gerrard for her efficient work for the club during the past two years. She is the first president who has served two years, and although it has been two of the most trying in the history of the club, she leaves the same in excellent condition. Mrs. Gerrard served refresh ments after the club work waa concluded. The musical department at their meet ing last Tuesday, at the home of Miss Whitmoyer, elected the following officers for the ensuing year: Leader, Mrs. Gar low; assistant leader, Mrs. Geer; secre tary, Mrs. McAllister; treasurer, Mrs. Heintz.

It is hard to tell the extent of the damage to the crops' by last week's storm. The farmers think the oat fields will coma oat all right yet, bnt they look to na like Paddy's nickel, "seldom and far between," and we believe that unless the weather and conditions are very favorable indeed the oat crop will be very light and weedy. The other grain and tame grasses are not hurt. And as far aa we can eee and hear the fruit crop will nof be a total failure.
