will cost 8300.000 or 81,000,000 does not
prevent the enthusiastic Omuhune from
pronouncing the success of the move
ment when the sum of 810,650 is in
sight. Great will be the Trans-Mississippi
anil International exposition.
People in Lincoln are watching the
enterprise with genuine interest. They
hope it will be a big success. Some of
them are no doubt ready to help make
t 60.
The application of practical populism
to the penitentiary has resulted in
a breakingout notof convicts, but of
the wardens and deputy warders.
Governor Holcomb ought to keep his
penitentiary officials under lock and
key. Iho Lincoln police force ib kept
busy arresting released convicts. It has
not time to cha60 offending pen officials.
Ex President Harrison became a con
tributor to the Ladies Homo Journal.
Then ho "announced hi3 engagement"
Hko any youth of twenty. When he
left the White House Mr. Harrison
omittted to take his presidential dignity
with him.
After Mr. W. E. Stewart was held up
one night at 10:10 o'clock an esteemed
contemporary, the Call, remarked that
things have come to a pretty pass when
prominent citizens cannot venture out
at night without taking their lives in
their hands. Judge Stewart is a prom
inent citizen, and he suffered great pain
as the result of his meeting with the
garroters; but it is possible that those
persons unfortunate enough not to be
prominent may sustain injuries in like
manner quite as painful as those in
flicted upon Judge Stewart, and it is
submitted that if the prominent citizen
is to be protected the obscure citizen
should be looked after also.
As a matter of fact Lincoln ought to
have more adequate police protection.
If this city is to remain .the dumping
ground for the criminals of the state, if
all the murderers and criminals and
all 'round toughs that are gathered up
all over Nebraska are to bo turned loose,
after a short term of imprisonment in
the pen, in this city, then provision
should be made for exercising a super
vision over this enterprising gentry.
The police force should be increased
so that the residence district may be
regularly patrolled.
A young girl came to Omaha from
Boone, la., the other uay. She went to
a hotel. One night she saturated a towel
with chloroform and placing it over her
nose and mouth she went to sleep.
She never awoke. A week before her
father had killed a young man who
was described by the newspapers as tho
girl's lover.The young man was named
Wally. On the eve of suicide tho lover
less maiden wrote a letter. She said:
"I feel alone in this world since Wally
has died. And I am going to join him
in some other world. I think my
father was justified in doing what ho
did. I know Wally would have killed
me if he had lived. I was afraid of him
and everyone knew that. I wanted to
go to Fort Dodge, and he would not let
me. He frequently drew his pistol on
me and would bavo killed me had I not
obeyed him. Still he was very good to
me, and I liked him and am lost with
out him.'
Here is material for some new Poo or
some latter day Hugo. She felt all alone
since Wally died; ho was very good to
her and she liked him. Ho drew his
pistol and would have killed him if
slio had not obeyed him. She knew he
would kill her some time. These are
apparently inconsistent statements
But Annio Ryster in her crude way gave
Eome indication of the possibilities of
human emotion, passion, the complexity
of it all. Love and hate are some
times strangely commingled. Love and
fear often go togetber.There was a great
deal that was human in tho side light
on this double tragedy that sent Wally
McFarl nd and Annie Royster to some
'other world.'
There will bo a formal inauguration
of Chancellor MacLean in connection
with the annual charter nay exercises
of the state university. When Profes
sor MacLean accepted tho chancellor
ship of tho University of Nebraska it Is
understood that the University of Min
nesota agreed to hold his chair open for
a year, in case ho might not desire to re
main in Nebraska. It is certain that
the Minnesota university did not wish
to lose Prof. MacLean. But the chan
cellor will remain in Nebraska. Indeed
it is not known that ho ever thought
of not remaining. Tho president of his
former college will assist in his installation.
Chancellor MacLean came to Ne
braska very quietly. He was not her
alded for months as the educational
Moses for the benighted children of Ne
braska. When he arrived there was no
demonstration beyond a social recogni
tion that he was entitled to as a gentle
man. He made no promises
and outlined no program. He
simply took up his duties and addressed
himself earnestly to the great work be
fore him. Four months have passed
since that time, and the wisdom of the
regents selection has been demonstrat
ed. Chancellor MacLean has proceeded
cautiously, but the university has
already felt tho influence of his scholarly
progressive policy, and the commun ity
has seen in him a man of culture dig
nity, strength, force. His formal inaug
uration next month will be celebrated
with genuine enthusiasm. The univer
sity ano Nebraska need such men as
