Oldest Stenographer in Stale Has a
Birthday.
"FIRST SHORTHAND EH IN WEST
llt OfflrF f Conrt Itrporter, Cr
nlt-d for lit Benefit In Dakota,
Whfn Thiit Section W
.Mill n. Territory.
Cnl C. Valentine, court stenographer,
yesterday quietly observed his fifty-ninth
birthday, and whllo there la nothing
startling In thin fort. It might be noted
that In point of service he la Hie oldest
stenographer In the state, and, no far m
that goes, one. of the oldest In the west.
Valentine became a stenographer be
fore there were any schools where
stenography wni taught Ho Just learned
It himself and became olio of tho experts.
Ills first experience In doing shorthand
work for pay was In Kouth Dakota, when
the two states comprised one territory
that was known as Dakota. That was
In 1K7S, when he was little more than n
loy He had a brother, 15. K. Valentine,
who later became a Judge and a congress
man, residing In northern Nebraska. Cal
came west looking for a Job and
eventually landed In Yankton during a
session of lh territorial legislature.
In 1S7S there were no stenographers In
South Dakota, and when Valentine
dropped In to look on at the legislative
session, he saw his opportunity. He sat
through one of the dally sessions of the
lower house, taking full notes of the pro
ceedings. That night, on his typewriter,
which was tho first one ever taken Into
the territory, he transcribed his notes and
the next morning asked and was given
permission to read his report. Being
verbatim, It surprised the members of
the body. He said nothing, but every day
during the next two weeks he divided tils
time between the house and the sennte,
reporting the proceedings and each fol
lowing morning reading his report, which
was made tho off lJat record. "
Cal did this work without pay, but with
the hope of reward. As tho session
reared the close, he Induced ono of the
members, who had become a staunch
friend, to Introduce n bill for the em
ployment ot a stenographer In tho coUrt.
This bill provided for a per dlcm of 910
during the sessions of tho court and an
additional fee of It cents per 100 words
for all transcripts. The bill went through
and Immediately Peter C. Shannon, who
had formerly been a police Jud'go In Pitts
burgh, but who had been appointed
t'nltol States Judge, chief Justice and
cne of the district Judges for Dakota, ap
pointed Valentine as his stenographer.
As district Judge, Hhannon had tho
whole of what Is now South Dakota, In
his Jurisdiction and, whilo nil of the
counties were not organized, Valentine
had plenty of work to do. Ho was In
court practically alx days every week,
and every week he was pounding out tflO
besides the money for his transcripts and
mileage when he was called out of Yank
ton county, which waa the seat ot the
supreme court. This continued until the
legislature reduced tho pay of stenog
raphers, and soma twenty-flvo years ago
Valentine camo to Omaha, where he has
since resided.

Thieves from the City Hall
Dr. Taylor, Soil Expert, Speaks at I
the Commercial Club.
The city hall has been robbed ami
pandemonium reigns In Its sacred cor
ridors. A crafty, low-browed person
swiped a purse containing $15, two law
books from City Attorney John A. Illne
and a beautifully mounted wild duck
from Commissioner Joe B. Hummel. It
was a valuable duck, the gift of Henry
McDonald, and Joe prized It so highly
that It roosted always on tho desk in
his private office.
Early jesterday das Commissioner
.Too P. llutler reported tho theft of his
reputation and quoted Shakespeare to the
Janitor, Bmll Walstrom, until that
veteran ot pall and mop lit a ditty
globed lantern and with a heavy Colt's
gun Instituted a search Into all the da'tlc
crypts of the musical castle.
At noon Walstrom reported that no
train of the reputation could be found,
llutler said the color of the lost article
was bright red, but that It often by
some strange msglc became pure white.
He did not know the exact shape of it,
but said the last time ho examined It,
It was mostly square, with frazzled edges
and serrated bumps on Its Inner surface.
Butler wtll give anybody a big bundle
of bright Ideas for the return of the
valuable property. If It Is never found
the gas commissioner says he haa an
other and a better one which he will use
as a substitute.
During his search In Butler's behalf
Walstrom pried open the desk of City
Corporation Counsel Ben S. Baker and
found a frightfully misshaped package
of black and blue material. Judge Baker,
after a careless glance, said the stuff
was certain precedents In law and was
without current value.
Tollce Chief Henry W. Dunn has taken
a hand In tho search and an extra
heavyweight cop Is pacing a beat In
front of the Karnam street entrance to
the city hall. Two detectives put certain
minor employes at the city hall through
a strenuous examination In a private of
fice, but the theft of the articles still re
mains a mystery.

Dewey Faces Heavy
Fine Through the
Laxness of Others
Because the city, the Water board and
the School board have failed to report
their bonded Indebtedness to Franu
Dewey, county clerk, aa directed by the
last legislature, Mr. Dowoy may be sun
Jtcted tn heavy fines. Ho say he Is not
M.ire whether It Is possible to compel of
fiolgls to furnish the figures, but is maw-
In an Investigation.
By a law which went Into effect last
July the county clerk wa made bond
rrslstrar for DoUgla county and a fine
of tM for each offense wa provided for
failure to notify state officials wnen
bonds are cancelled. Since he has no
i coords ot old bond and no attention haa
been paid to his notice that certificate
should be flld In hi office, he face
the prospect of being made subject to
penalties, though hi own desire Is to
obey the law.
Con Men Nipped at

Two confidence men, who gave the

Godson, were given forty-five day

con men. who are both wen aiong in
years and have been practicing the light
touch profession for many years, wera
discerned In the act ot cashing the check
at the Union station by C. II. ICessler,
who notified the station policeman, who
caught one of the men and Kessler

secured. Oodsort waa arrested In Omaha
once before when he was. accompanied
by "Poodle Dog" Murphy, who wa well

COMMERCE STUDENTS TALK
OVER GOVERNMENTAL TOPICS
At the meeting ot the Junior Commer
cial club at the Omaha High School ot
Commerce two very Interesting articles
were considered. The first on "Why the
Government Should Control Railroads"
cava some Inside facts on railroads; and
the second' waa on "The President'
Fondness for System," and rev

President Wilson.
The club hour was so thoroughly en-

"This nation lends the world In com
merce and manufacturing, but we arc
In a perilous position,'- said Dr. W. B.
Taylor, toll culture expert ot the John (
Deere Plow company, at the public af
fairs luncheon of the Commercial club.
"Until we solve the protrtem of feeding
the working man at a low cost, so he
can compete with low-priced foreign
workers, we cannot retain our position
of world supremacy," ho explained. "Bet
ter Farming" waa his subject, and he
held up better farming as the solution
of the countries present Industrial situa
tion, due to the high cost of living.
"We who complain of the high cost of
living are said to be Intoxicated with ex
travagance," Dr. Taylor continued. "Tho
situation Is placing our commercial and
Industrial supremacy In a hazardous posi
tion. If wo make It possible for our
worklngmcn to live at low expense, wo
can maintain our place as the world'
leader. Tho only solution of the prohlem
Is to raise corn, alfalfa and dairy cattlo
together, preserving the soil and combin
ing agrlculturo and stock raising along:
tho scientific lines of better farming.
Then the wholo world, will make a beaten
path to our door, tho high cost of living
will be unheard of,. and we will continue
to lead and advance In' commerce and
Industry."
Ho urged the many business men and
banker who heard him to treat the
farmer with more consideration and help
him In financial and business ways to
adopt tho better scientific methods of
Soil and stock culture, which he declared
to be Just common sense ways of doing
their work right. Good seed, balanced
rations for stock, sclentlfto poultry rals
Ing, the use ot silo and the necessity of
combining the Inorganic matter of thn
soli with the organic matter of fertil
izers and the chemical elements In the
air, to produce the 'best crops, were also
discussed and endorsed.

If the nation meets the perilous position
It Is now in, according to Dr. Taylor. He
declared that a $39 a month girl school
teachor, who comes from n city and
boards herself. Is an extravagant expense
for any school district, because she Can
not teach what all student should know,
namely, the essentials of better farming.
