of tho clerk, probably all but about 4,UW
of these are In actual service on ma
chines, which would make about SO.lMO
machines in service In the state, which,
according to the last census, would make
about one automobile to each H peoplo
in the state, or about one for each three

superintendent of the work of valuation
In western states In the employ of tho
Interstate Commerce commission, left

Memorial Exercises
at Soldiers1 Home
MILFORD, Neb., June 1. (Special.)
Memorial day was observed here at the
state soldiers' home. Members of tho
Grand Army of the Republic and Wom
en's Relief corps, with their friends as
sembled at l:3o p. m. The exercises
opened with vocal music followed by
prayer, reading of f the Gettysburg ad
dress and order 'of General Logan Inaug-
crating Memorial day some forty-five
years ago.
General Culver then Introduced Dr.
Edwin Maocey, professor of International
law and diplomacy In the law depart
ment of the state university, who briefly
reviewed the history of the country from
the formation of the confederacy of the
thirteen states. Ho said In part; "The
civil was, an outgrowth of conflicting
legal, economic and moral Ideas. It was
by no moans a sudden outburst, but the
evolution of a divergence of viewpoints
antidatlng the formation of the constitu
tion. Such were the conflicting views as
to the relative power of the federal gov
ernment and that of the states and also
on the question of slavery that the con
stitution In order to be adopted by the
convention and ratified by the states,
was necessarily a compromise and In the
slavery compromise rested the germs of
the civil war. The Missouri compromise,
Clay's compromise. the Kansas-Ne
braska bill, all cmphaslted tho imprac
ticability of any permanent settlement
by compromise. Technically the civil
war was fought out on tho legal question
of the right of the federal government to
enforce Its laws against the will of a
state. The result proved the supremacy
of the government over all its parts."
He held the large, audience In close at
tention for one hour, with th most
logical and eloquent address ever made,
here on Memorial day. Ho paid a glowing
tribute to the boys of slty-one and five
and their valor which preserved to us a
nation.
At the closo of the address the women
marched to the cemetery, where the
graves were decorated.
One of the interesting features of the
day was the presentation of Christian
Curtrlght, a survivor of tho Mexican war.
Ho Is 91 years old.
