Grain Outlook.
If the government crop reporter
has gathered the facts in the story,
the outlook for wheat, oats, barley
and rye in the states as a whole, is
exceedingly good, much better than
in some of the principal grain states
separately, we are happy to say.
Some grain men differ with the gov
ernment. Yet we are constrained to
believe that the government is not
trying to overshoot the mark, at any
rate, and has no design In mis
stating the situation. Furthermore,
it has better facilities, perhaps, for
ascertaining the condition over the
country at large than the private
grain men in different states.
The fact that acreage of wheat has
diminished as compared with last
year is not vital; that is a local mat
ter. It is of much more importance
that "all wheat" shows up as to
yield fourteen bushels per acre as
compared with 12.5 bushels last year
and 14.6 bushels for a five-year aver
age. If these figures are even ap
proximately correct, and they must
be, it is time for much rejoicing, at
least over prospects.
Incree in the Cost of Diamonds.
Ttose June bridegrooms who have
-.ieady laid in their supply of dia

preciate a market forecast from an
Amsterdam diamond dealer, who
says that prices in his line, which
have jumped from 15 to 20 per cent,
are on the way. to higher levels "in
the near future."
The diamond dealer has not been
doing as well as he might. Two
strikes among the diamond cutters
during the year have interfered with
his profits. Everything must now he
conserved to .make up for the loss
and, of course, the simplest remedy
is an increase in prices. This Is one
place, however, where the ultimate
consumer ' really has very little
ground for protest. It Is not his
fault if he gets caught in the vortex
of the diamond mill and even if be
does he knows so little about the
price and value of precious stones
that he is never in a position to com
plain very vigorously. It flatters his
pride to buy a diamond at all and It
might compromise it to pay what
seemed to him a small price for the
luxury. So, perhaps, it is Just as
well to keep boosting these prices,
for this is one place if "where ignor
ance is bliss 'tis folly to be wise,"
sure enough.
Bryan and O'Gonnan.
This is an open season for picking
democratic standard bearera. former
Comptroller Herman A.-Meti of New
York City, some politician in his day,
has exercised his right under the law
of common, consent and picked Bryan
and Senator O'Gorman as the men
to be named at Baltimore
, It involves some hazard of .reputa
tion to become dogmatic on this sub
ject at this dale, of course, and while
any two of a dozen other democrats
may b'e nominated, Mr. Metz, per
haps, has some ground for his pre
diction. It Is not impossible to im
provise circumstances that might
suggest Bryan as the most available
man for the head of the ticket and it
is even less difficult, from at least
on point of view, to imagine O'Gor
man as his running mate.
jMetz sounds his Bryan and OUor
man boom under the slogan, "Back
to the constitution," which Is quite
another matter, especially with refer
ence to the head of the ticket, him
self claiming credit for most of the
new political fads of the day.
The St. Louis Republic has a
couple of mighty interesting little
human interest stories, "Then- and
Now," involving Cole Younger and
Emmet Dalton, "twenty years ago"

SCHOOL DAYS IN EARLY OMAHA
VII. Recollections of Student Life.
BY VICTOR ROSE WATER,
Member of the Class of 1887 and Now Editor of The Bee.
Student life durlpg our high school
days was. varied, and vigorous. The
school was not yet so large as to suc
cumb to the temptation to "clique," al
though there were, of course, groups
that found mutual pleaaure in congenial
diversions. The divisions were more
largely along class lines due to longer
acquaintance and more Intimate contact,
but at the same time there were cross
cuts drawn In altogether different diver
slons. Even in my first year I was per
mitted to associate with some of the
seniors and to participate In their social
affairs, perhaps because of my youth
fulness. I had gone Into the high school
In knee pants In fact, did not acquire
my first full length trousers until my
third year and my chief competitor In
dimlnutlveneas was a classmate named
Harry Bonner, who was a little older,
a Httle larger and wore long pats. In
the grades all the children had been
called by their first names, and the sup
posed metamorphosis worked by entrance
Into the high school was to be addresseo
as "Mr. Smith" or "Miss Jones." I was
denied this privilege as if It did not be
long to me until one day I rose In my
might with an Indignant protest to one
of ihe offending teachers, after which
the objectionable discrimination wak
abated.
In those early school days we observed
the various holidays In the usual way.
For Arbor day, for example, the School
Board furnished sapling trees which
members of the graduating class were
permitted to set out on the south side of
the campus to grow Into tall, livlnt;
monuments to the prowess of the stu
dents and furnish sentimental ties that
would bind them forever to the old
school. In my turn I put out one of these
trees, along with my classmates, but If
any of theso trees survived, or ever
lived any length of time, it Is not re
corded. We had our Christmas enter
tainments and out class plays. 1 re
member one tried out in German, and
on one occasion the boys put on a min
strel show with real burnt cork that
wouldn't come off for a long time there
after. In the earlier years when the whole
school was assembled in the large audi
ence room every morning, the day was
started with a brief musical or literary
number. One of the students would play
a piece on the piano, or recite a short
poem and then we would go on with our
lessons. Assignment on this, program
was supposed to be recognition of merit,
although seldom welcomed as such. '
In the matter of sports and athletic
games we were at that time in a re
ceptive state, trying out everything and
Introducing and . experimenting with
every kind of a contest we ever heard of.
A well equipped gymnasium has been In
stalled under the mansard roof in the
CURBENT GOSSIP OF THE ARMY
Gathered from the Army and Navy Register.
Army Supply Corp Head.
With the assurance of the creation of
the consolidated quartermaster corps In
the army speculation naturally addresses
itsejf. to the officer who will be selected
as Its first chief, td have the rank ar.d
pay. of -a major general during his -service
a such. When that officer is tmc
ceeded, by. another chief . of the corps the
latter will have only the rank of a briga
dier general, under the terms -of the pend
ing legislation. There have been persist
ent rumors that some of the military ad
visers of the president have been urging
upon Mr. Taft'the consideration of namei
of officers who have- not hitherto been
closely associated with the appointment.
There la nothing, however, to indicate
that the president will abandon the pur
pose he Is known to have entertained all
along of appointing General J. B. Ale
shire, now quartermaster general of the
army, to which position he was appointd
on July 1, 1907, largely by virtue of the
Influence of Mr. Taft, then the secretary
of war. General Aleshlre is regarded at
the capltol as what may be called th"
logical selection; at least, one hears his
name more frequently mentioned than
any other.
Reward for Colonel Goethals.
There is a revival of the gossip eon
cernlng a suitable recognition of the serv
ices which are being rendered on the
Isthmus by Colonel George Wi Goethals
of the corps of engineers. It has beer
suggested by some of the members of
congress, especially those who have vis
ited the canal, that that officer Bhould be
made a brigadier general with the least
possible delay, and this is in anticipation
of the next vacancy which Is to occur In
the grade. In view of the pending legis
lation which may cut down the number
of general officers, this contemplated pro
motion of Colonel Goethals Is surrounded
with considerable doubt, more than is
Justified In this particular Instance. There
is likely to be some special legislation In
this case, probably upon completion of
the canal, which would be doubtless in
accordance with the wishes of Colonel
Goethals, If he were consulted in tho
matter, or If he expressed his own wishes.
So far as Is known in Washington, that
officer entertains no thought of the offi
cial recognition of his achievement. The
conservative view is that a discussion of
the special legislation which would fit thi
case is premature. It is certain that when
the proper time comes Colonel Goethals
will be suitably rewarded, and that since
he does not retire for age until 1922 he
doubtless will have a position with rank
and title in accordance with the notable
work upon which he has been engaged.
New General Officers.
Much curiosity has been aroused by the
delay In transmitting to the senate the
nomliiations of general officers to fill ex
isting vacancies in the grades of major
general and brigadier general, one In the
former and three in the latter. About a
week ago It was apparently decided to
nominate Brigadier General W. W.
Wotherspoon to be a major general and
Brigadier General Clarence R. Edwards,
Colonel O. F. Chase of the cavalry arm
and Colonel E. J. McClernand, First cav
alry, to be brigadier ' generals. While
there is no reason to expect that this
:ate will be modified, there is a suspi
cion that the delay In sending the nomi
nations to the senate Is for a purpose.
Naturally enough, under the circum
stances, there is much speculation as to
the reason tor the delay." Some gossips
attribute It to the Intention of the presi
dent to make use of the positions for
whatever advantage it may be to hint in
a political way prior to the national con
vention; others see in It a purpose of the
War department to use the situation in
attic room cn the north, where the boys
went through all sorts of stunts and took
up variuus fads. First It was boxing
mathces, then it was wrestling and then
it was fencing, and there were some fast
and furious bouts between our amateur
bruisers during noon intermissions or
after school hours. Out-of-doors we had
base ball nines and foot ball teams and
a cricket eleven as well. We had on
several occasions regularly organized
athletic tournaments with foot races,
high and broad Jumps, hurdling and pole
vaulting and even broad sword combats
on horseback with home-made wooden
swords. The horses, of course, were bor
rowed nags, guaranteed to stand still no
matter how much belabored by glanclns
blows of .the swords. The hl?h school
cadets took Inception in a voluntter
military company, for which the boys
chose their own officers, who memorized
the tactics and went through the drills
and marches as best they could without
guns.
Not only were we Into everything here
enumerated, but we also went Into poll
tics, forming a Blaine and Logan club
In the fall of 1S84 under the leadership
of Wallace Broatch, which participated
In the final rally of the campaign. I
have a distinct recollection of marching
along with the other high school boys
In a grand torchlight procession carrying
a tin can with a flaming wick set on the
end of a stick and being taken to task
on going home for almost ruining my
clothes with drlppllng oil, to say nothing
of holes burned in my hat and scorched
fingers. The defeat of Blaine in the elec
tion put a damper on our Blaine awl
Logan club, which thereupon went out of
commission.
The genesis of high school journalism
also cropped out during the years I was
attending the old school. There had been
a s6called High School Journal run by
un outsider as a profit-making venture
which had gone by the boards some time
before. About December. 1S86, a project
was taken up to Issue a paper under the
name of "The High School Register.';
The leading spirts in this were Wallace
Broatch, Herbert Taylor and mywelf, be
coming editor, business manager and
assistant editor In the order named. The
Register began as a small four-page
sheet Issued twice a month confined
strictly to the chronicling of high school
events. I had before that had the stamp
collecting erase, and has contributed
erudite articles to a number of philatelic
magazines, but this was my first venturo
Into what may be fairly called journal
Ism. The next year I took charge of the
Register as Its editor, associated with
Howard Clark as business manager,
transforming. It Into a monthly of maga
zine size and pushed it along the high
way which it had now traveled without
hopping for more than twenty-five years.

Dismissal of Officers.

sideration the proceedings and findings

Jacques de L. Ladtte, Twelfth infantry,
on duty at the Presidio .of Monterey,
Cak; Lieutenant George E. Price, Four
teenth cavalry, stationed at Fort Mcin
tosh, Tex-, and Captain Boss Reese of
the Philippine scouts on duty at Manila,
These officers have been sentenced to
dismissal. The charges' for which Cap
tain Lafltte and Lieutenant Price were
tried allege failure to meet financial ob
ligations. The charges for which Captain
Reese was tried are numerous, varied
and serious, Involving, it U alleged, all
descriptions of personal misconduct, In
cluding the use of violent ,'angtiage
toward subordinates, striking Philippine
soldiers and other personal attacks in
fact, a long list of alleged misdeeds,
similar to those for vrhlch this officer
was tried once before. The papers in
the cases of Captain Lafltte and Lieu
tenant Price are now before the secretary
of war for his action and It is expected
they will be sent to the president early
in the coming week. The record in the
case of Captain Reese is a copious one
and It will require some time to go
through it. Captain Lafltte is the senior
officer of his grade in his regiment and
stands No. 7 on the lineal list of captains
of rnfautry. He served as a quarter
master of volunteers in the war with
Spain, is a graduate of the Military
academy, having been commissioned as
second lieutenant of the Eighth infantry
(In June. 3891. Lieutenant Ffrlce was
originally an enlisted man of the army,
In which capacity he served from 1S96 to
1901, when he was appointed a second

THE SUNLIGHT WAY.
Baltimore Sun.
The sunlight way for me.
The smiling way and sweet;
The way of little roses, and
The way of little feet.
The sunlight way to glory,
Sweet song and restful story:
To lips that learn at morning,
And lips that learn at night
To kiss with love s adorning
The darkness unto light.
The sunlight way forever,
In shadow or in shine;
The sunlight way of beauty.
The only way for mine.
'The sunshine way of living,
Of loving and forgiving;
The sunlight way of going
Along the toiling way,
With love's sweet smile of greeting
And an old forthright "Good-day.
The sunlight way tomorrow.
When all this loss and care
Have been in dreams forgotten,
With all their bleak despair.
The sunlight way of strewing
Life's path with helpful doing;
The sunlight way for me,
The cheer that makes life holy
To humble and to strong alike,
To proud hearts and to lowly.
