BELGIAN DEFENDS LEOPOLD
T. Mellstrpm of Bruges Says Dead
King Wat'Maligned.
AMERICAN COMMERCE IS GOOD
Traveler Declares tnat Increase in
Tariff Has Been Followed by
a Steady Growth of
Itosiness.
''i v - :
According to T. Mellstrom of Bruges. Bel
gium, the tariff has not affected he bust
ness relations of the United State and
Belgium. Mr. MedUrtroni travels for Sander
son & Sons, one or the leading florists of
Uolslum, and was seen at the Paxton.
"The tariff on plants," said the man from
Belgium, "is 25 per cent ad valorem, which
Is a high tariff, but It has not affected our
business, which has Increased over 25 per
cent with the United States since the tariff
was In effect."
Speaking of t)ie late King Leopold and
conditions as they ealst In Belgium, ha
aid: "King Leopold was held In the high
est respect throughout the entire kingdom,
lie was a constitutional king and lived up
to the letter of the law, so that Belgium
expanded and grew prosperous under his
rule. He was a member of the Clerical
party, which Is now In power, but was
looked up to by the Liberals and also by
tho Socialists In so' far as any king could
be looked up to by the latter party.
"I am not a Catholic, nor a member of
the Clerical party; In fact, I am Inclined to
be a Liberal, but . I have the highest re
spect for the wisdom and honest rule given
the people of Belgium under the reign of
Leopold. He undertook a big thing In
Congo and deserves credit for the way In
whloh he handled the situation. He never
visited the oolony, as far as I know, and
It is not surprising that some of the na
tives might have been maltreated by the
white people who settled In Congo, but
such Is the history of nearly every colony
of Ignorant people settled by a wiser na
tion. If history Is correct, the American
Indians were not always treated as prop
erly as they should have been.
People Should Get Facta.
"People who know nothing of the situa
tion should not Judge until they get facts.
The English were bitterly opposed to
Belgium In the Congo and circulated some
rather hard stories about affairs, but I do
not believe them, neither do the Belgians.
The. . English are prejudiced and con.
sequently are not good judges. ' The Bel
gian people did not question the wisdom
of their king, and they were Inclined not
to pry Into his private life, saying that he
should be the Judge of that, as long as he
ruled the country according to the con
stitution, which he did.
"I do not believe that a king has as easy
a time as many who know nothing of his
duties and responsibilities would think.
Leopold was considered to be a good ruler,
and he encouraged his people to do big
things. 'Don't stop at details,' he would
say, 'but accomplish big things.' He was a
doer, and placed a great portion, of his
private capital In the Congo.
"Nebraska Is a great wheat raising state,
but the Belgians are up-to-date In this
respect. They cultivate their soli wltb
great care and much labor, so that excel
lent crops are obtained. The finest rye I
ever saw in Belgium. The Belgians
eat white bread, but besides raising wheat
they grow large quantities of rye for the
nation close at hand. I think that their
success as wheat growers comes from the
fact that they are careful farmers. Noth
ing is considered too much labor which
will benefit the soil and no trouble Is ex
perienced In getting the farmers to do In
tensive farming. In this country most of
the farming Is extensive, owing to the
large amount of land available, but Bel
glum is a small country and the people
aim to get the most possible out of their
limited amount of noil."
WHEAT BELT RAIN GENERAL
Precipitation Shown by Railroad
Crop Reports to Have Been Widely
. Scattered In Htate.
Reports from the railroads runnitfg
through the wheat belt show that the rain
Is still falling and that the long desired
moisture has arrived. All of the divisions
on the Burlington report rain Friday morn
ing. In somo placen the precipitation was
light, but the rain was general.
The heaviest rains were on the Omaha
and Lincoln divisions, which averaged
about an Inch of moisture. At Greeley
Center two Inches ot rain was reported.
Stations along the Northwestern report
practically the same conditions as existed
Thursday, showing that the rain was scat
tered over the entire state. The Union
Pacific reports rain Friday over the entlro
system as far west as Cheyenne, averaging
from half an Inch to an inch, while In the
vicinity of Grand Island there were two
Inches.
Kansas was also soaked from one end to
the other.

Colonels Complete
the Riding Tests
Robust Soldiers Make Their Ninety
Miles Without Being in the
Least Fatigued.
Colonels Cornelius Gardener, Sixteenth
Infantry, and Thomas F. Davis, Eighteenth
Infantry, have completed the ninety-mile
riding test, as directed in orders from the
War department. These tests are generally
.aken by field officers of the United States
army during August of esch year, but ow
ing to Colonel Gardener's early departure
for Alaska he was directed to take this
ride at this time, as It would be In lieu of
the one required for him to take during
the fiscal year 1911. The ride oonslsts of
not less than thirty miles tor three days
In succession, under conditions suitable to
the making of forced marches in active
field operations, and were as follows:
First day, thirty miles. 1:40:00.
Second day, thirty miles, (:3S:00.
Third day. thirty miles, 7:06:00.
Prior to taking this ride the officers were
examined by Major J. T. Clarke, medical
corps, and First Lieutenant Blase Cole,
medical reserve corps, who constituted the
board of medical officers as directed In or
ders from department headquarters. Upon
the conclusion of the three days' march
they were again examined by the medical
board to ascertain whether cr not their
health had been Impaired by these rides.
As this is the third test, under the same
condition, taken by Colonel Gardener, who
Is 62 years of age, and who hss tent.) ove:-forty-one

there in time. Reed was found floundering
In a bath of mud and mud so yielding
and apparently with no bottom to it that
the greater his effort the more he became
enveloped in Its slimy tentacles.
Boards were found and a temporary pas
sage constructed and It was not until these
preparations had been made that any of
the rescue party would venture near the
slough. Reed was rapidly whiked to the
police station where the surgical staff re
stored him to animation. Reed was dis
covered In an alley on Pierce street be
tween Eleventh and Tenth streets. A new
car barn is being erected here and the
rain has softened the excavated earth. Reed
seems to have lost his way coming from
the station and his cries for help attracted
the attention 'of Henry Coster, who noti
fied the police station.
