Experts.One of the dangers of democratism

which this country has not wholly es-

caped --Is .a consequence of the wide-

spread assumption that 'the naturaleauality between men signifies thatall' men are equally able to do allthings. This view, it is true, hasbeen often borne out by the amazingsaccess of Americans, with no evi-

dent special training, In the dischargeof public duties. Much good7 workhas been done by men who havebeen elected or appointed to positionsrequiring great special skill, not be-

cause they had shown that skill, butbecause they were eminent citizensor useful party men or men of assert-ive genius who forged ahead to-- thework that their instincts rightly badethem seek. As the nation grows andthe work of officials becomes morecomplex, there is increasing demandin all departments for experts. Inresponse to this demand have comethe reorganization of the consularservice, the assemblage at Washing-ton of a great number of scientific ex-

perts, the tendency in the post officeand other departments to leave com-petent servants undisturbed by shiftsof party power, and the recognitioneverywhere that men in public occu-pations like those in private businessmust be engaged and paid accordingto their ability. To have this abilitythey must be trained in their work.Pepartment heads in Washington arecalling for experts, and asking In-

creased pay for those who haveproved themselves expert, saysYouth's Companion. Friends of goodgovernment in large cities are pro-testing against the conduct of citybusiness by unbusinesslike men,against accounting departments undermen who do not understand book-keeping, sewer departments undermen who know nothing of sewers.The improvement of all units ofAmerican government nation, stateand town depends on the trainingand adequate payment of men whocan do the public work.

Hands Across the Sea.The only good result of the amaz-fn- g

blunder of the governor of Jamai-ca in rejecting the very practicaloffers of American assistance in re-

lieving the results of the earthquakein that island is the opportunity givenfor renewed expression of friendshipfrom the people of Great Britain. TheBritish are much more severe uponGov. Swettenham than are the Ameri-cans, the latter being disposed tolaugh off the affair as a cranky ebul-lition of an overwrought adminstra-tor- .

But in London and throughoutthe British empire the humiliation ofthe governor's act and of the as-

tounding manner in which it wascommitted is keenly felt, and thereis haste to assure the people of theUnited States that the sentiment ofthe Jamaican governor does not rep-resent the feeling of the people ofBritain, who admire and appreciatethe generous offers of American as-sistance and who deprecate any inter-ruption of the good feeling betweenthe countries. With Secretary Rootfraternizing with the Canadian au-

thorities and with England raising agreat cry of protest against the Ja-maican governor's churlishness, re-

marks the Troy Times, the unneces-sary question. What effect has theEnglish-Japanes- e alliance upon theBritish attitude toward the UnitedStates? answers itself. The handsacross the sea seem still to beclasped, and with no knife up thesleeve. Blood is still thicker thanJamaica spirits, particularly when the'latter are sour.

It is probable that the oldest andmost compact book of reference inthe world certainly the one mostconsulted by the great ones of theearth is the "Almanach de Gotha,"of which the publishers have just is-

sued the one hundred and forty-fourt-h

annual edition, consisting ofjust 1,200 closely packed pages. Itspictorial honors are this time accord-ed to the kings and queens of Den-mark and Norway, and admirable por-traits they are. Prom this authenticpublication we learn, says the LondonChronicle, that the British people areliving not under a Guelph dynasty,but a "maison dewfiich is a delicate question for thegenealogists. But the editor of theomniscient red-boun- d "Almanach"rarely makes a mistake.

yttOssftaoliseeei' The house has made the 2-c- rate

bill and the anti-pas- s biR a specialorder for Tuesday afternoon, and theaction of the republicans on this mea-

sure will be fully determined by a rul-

ing before the time. That the repub-

licans have got themselves into aaembarrassing position over this nt

rate' bill no one denies. Each memberof the joint committee which draftedthe bill agreed to support it. and tofight any and all amendments to itWhen the amendment to permit therailroads to go before the railroadcommission on the matter was offered,few of the majority knew it was coming and hence it was lost Now someof the republicans believe to carry theamendment will be to place in jeopardy all the other joint committeebills, for the reason if one committeebill is amended opponents of the plat-form measures will have an excuse toattempt to amend the other committeebills. A big fight will be the result,and it might terminate in the state-wide primary bill being seriously dam-

aged and it might hurt the terminaltaxation bill.

Professor Howard of the state uni-

versity, head of the department of in-

stitutional history and sociology,, wasone of the speakers before the senatecommittee on judiciary, in favor ofthe passage of H. R. No. 9 or S. F. No.50. the child labor bills. Senator Kingof Polk presided as chairman of thecommittee. Many men and women,some of the latter club women of Lin-

coln, were present to favor the bill.A large number of members of thesenate and some of the houseTlistenedto the addresses. The speech of Pro-fessor Howard made a profound im-

pression. He reviewed the history oflegislation in favor of children, be-

ginning in 1802, in England, to thelast bill of the kind, one that waspassed in 1903. He told of the condi-tions that once existed, told hair-raisin- g

stories of abuse and torture, andnarrated the changes that had beenbrought about by public sentiment andlaws, some of the latter having been inforce in Massachusetts, New York andIllinois for many years with markedsuccess.

Governor Sheldon's scheme for thelocal taxation of mortgages, either do-

mestic or foreign, scored a signal vic-tory in the house, when it was re-

ported by the committee of the wholefor third reading by a decided major-ity. The bill provides for the taxationof all real estate mortgages in thecounty where the land on which themortgage is held lies. At the presenttime mortgages are taxed as personalproperty so long as they are recordedIn Nebraska and not assigned to some-one outside the state.

Repairs on the capitol building andgrounds are to be the subject of in-

quiry by the house committee on pub-lic lands and buildings. A resolutionby Dodge of Douglas condemning theway the building is being kept up, waspassed and authority was given thecommittee to ascertain the cost ofneeded repairs. Mr. Dodge said thecapitol was a disgrace to the state inits present condition. He was not infavor of building anew until the struc-ture fell down, but he said he was infavor of doing some repairing.

A movement to revive the countyoption bill, killed in the senate, hascome to light and is being aided andabetted by some senators who votedagainst the measure. The plan is tohave the house amend the measureproviding for election once every fouror five years instead of every twoyears and providing that the countyelection shall govern the entire coun-ty until the next election. As tne billwas drawn it allowed cities and vil-lages to vote no license even after thecounty had gone wet

A bill of importance to the 6chooldistricts of that section of the state inwhich the revenues do not permit ofa seven months' school a year was in-

troduced in the house by Doran,Henry, Hill, Metzger and Wilson. Thebill provides that the state shall cometo the financial assistance of thoseschool districts which, though levyingthe maximum rate of taxes, cannotmaintain a seven months' school, sothat every school district in the statemay have school each year for thatlength of time.

A measure important to all the peo-ple of the state was introduced in thehouse by Wilson of Custer county.This bill provides the state board ofassessment shall use the unit system:n assesing railroad property and theasessment hall be distributed accord-ing to mileage without regard' to mainlines or branch lines. Should the "billbe signed by the governor after theterminal taxation bill is signed, it isthought by some the measure wouldnullify that measure.

The railroads had their innings he-for- e

the house committee on railroadson the 12th on the prposed nt pas-senger rate bill, and of the four cor-porations represented, each arguedthat the rate would not be compensa-tory and each said not only wouldinch a rate be detrimental to the rev-enues of the roads, but harmful to thestate in general, while P. S. Eustis,passenger traffic manager of the Bur-lington, told the committee the firststep his road would take should thebill become a law would be a test inthe courts.

The senate passed the bill increas-- jing the salary of the commandant ofthe Milford home for soldiers andproviding that such officer shall be anex-uni- soldier and that he may beremoved from office at the pleasureof the governor.

Bailiffs of the district court of Doug-

The state wide primary law pledgedto the people by the republican, demo-cratic and populist state conventions,will be introduced into the legislaturethe first of this week. The hill hasbeen blocked out by the subcommitteesand sent to the joint committee. Thebill gs prepared in the rough providesthat the general election officers shallbe the officers of the primary, thesame machinery being used at bothelections. It has been decided that in-

stead of electing the precinct andcounty committees that task will fallto the lot of the nominees, it havingbeen agreed that under the latter planpeople will be selected for those im-portant places who will have some in-

terest in the election and who will notleave all of the work to the chairman H

and secretary.

Senator Gibson's employers lia-bility bill and Senator Thomas' biU al-

lowing street railway companies toown securities in and own, operate andlease interurban companies and inter-urba- n

lines passed the senate withoutdebate. The Gibson bill did not re-ceive a negative vote. It relates only,to tlB3 more hazardous occupations onrailroads and provides negligence bya fellow servant shall not be a bar torecovery by an injured employe or byrelatives of an employe killed, by ac-cident. Contributory negligence ontthe part of the Injured is left to theJury, which is allowed to scale thedamages in the verdict according tothe proportion of negligence. It alsoprovides the acceptance of insurancemoney or relief department policyhereafter taken out .shall not be a barto recovery from the company.

The child labor bill was reportedback favorably to the senate, but afight is scheduled in favor of the farm--,

era. Tne bill was amended in tne committee changing the hours duringwhich children will be permitted towork, from 7 o'clock in the morninguntil 7 at night, to 6 o'clock in themorning until 8 at night This wasdone to permit the milking of cowsand to do the chores on the farms.

Mr. Fries of Howard, a member ofthe minority party, succeeded in get-ting recommended for passage hisbill providing a tax of. $3 to be leviedagainst persons entitled to vote whodo not avail themselves of the oppor-tunity. The bill was amended to ex-

empt from the law those who are keptaway from the polls by unavoidablecircumstances, though a statement tothis effect must be filed with thecounty treasurer or the tax will belevied.

The senate on the 12th spent three-quarte- rs

of an hour listening to a spe-cial program in commemoration ofLincoln's birthday and then adjourned!out of respect for the day. Rev. I. F.Roach of Lincoln delivered the address before the senate and eloquentlyeulogized the life and influence of themartyred president. The Oberlin quar-tet sang the "Battle Hymn of the Re-public" and responded to an encorewith "America." The services wereimpressive, though brief.

The joint committee appointed todraft a statewide primary law hasconcluded its work and the bill will beintroduced the first of the week. Pat-rick, the fusion member of the com-mittee, objected to the filing fee andmay make a fight to have it strickenout by the legislature. The committeegenerally is pleased with the measure.It is a compilation of the Brown-Dodge-McMulI- en

bills.

Senator King's free high school billwas recommended for passage by thesenate. Itallows any child living in a;district which does not provide a fullhigh school course to take the missinggrades at some high school in thestate. The tuition, which is fixed at75 cents a week, is raised by taxationin his district

The senate displayed a dispositionto push the railway commission billthrough as rapidly as possible when itvoted to take the bill from the stand-ing committee on railroads, to whichit had been referred, and place it di-

rectly on general file. This will ad-

vance it more rapidly than the regularcourse.

8. F. 227, by Goodrich of Fillmore,providing that persons convicted ofmurder in the first degree shall beplaced in the penitentiary and not putto death except by order of the gov-ernor, and in any event not less thanone year after date of conviction, wasindefinitely-postpone- d by the senate.

The three uniform divorce bills rec-ommended last fall by a meeting ofdivorce experts were introduced intothe senate. The main bill changes thegeneral divorce law, making it morestringent

Sentiment for the most stringentanti-pas- s law possible has developedto such an extent in the house thatthe exceedingly stringent bill drawnby the joint committee is likely toprove inadequate to meet presentideas. In its place a substitute billwill be offered that has been preparedby Representatives McMulleri, Jenni-so-n,

Hamer, Cone and Quackenbush.It cuts off everyone from the free listsave railroad employes, caretakers. oflive stock and railroad attorneys andphysicians, who are on an nnnpi sal-ary of at least $1,000 each.

One of the first bills to receive theapproval of Governor Sheldon, asidefrom the appropriation bills, was S. F.No. 28, by Root of Cass. It is said bysome to be unconstitutional because itamends a section of the Cobbey stat-ute that is' believed to be unconstitu-tional:

(Copyrisht by Alfred C. Clark.)As on the western prairies in

pioneer days, the trapper's camp fire,kindled to prepare his frugal meal orto warm him from the biting wind,fanned into renewed vigor, spread,first on the tiny blade of grass toneighboring blades, and thence to thetangled masses all around until thebroad plains were one vast sea ofseathing flame destroying all beforeit so the mail order business, startedin the eastern cities on a small scale,fanned by the breeze of judicious ad-vertising, has spread until it now cov-ers the length and breadth of our landand threatens disaster to the smallerdealers everywhere. The note ofwarning has been sounded, the lightis visible in the sky, and yet, appar-ently oblivious to it all, the oneswhose safety is being endangered,heed not the alarm nor the signal ofdisaster. The country merchant andthe farmer, whose combined effortscan stem the tide of destruction thatthreatens to engulf them, are aloneunconscious of the approaching devas-tation, that like a great sea of con-suming flame, Is threatening to engulfthem.

The country merchant and the farm-- j

er the simple, honest dwellers in therural districts, are the victims thisgigantic peril is reaching out for tofill its rapacious maw. Each year itsgrasp becomes firmer, its powergreater. Only a few short years agothe catalogue house was a thing un-nea- rd

of, today it stands as one ofAmerica's greatest Institutions. Andwith great fortune comes great pow-er, so now the mail order businessmay well be classed among the powersof the nation. Its efforts are alreadybeing felt at the national capital,

where our laws are made, and unlessa check is administered the passageof the parcels post bill will mark oneof its greatest triumphs.

But let us look at a few of thesimple reasons why the farmer shouldpatronize the home dealer. In thefirst place their interests are cen-

tered in each other. Every season ofplenty on the farm means a prosper-ous year to the country merchant. SoIn the prosperity of the farmer doesthe.country merchant expect to gain.The farmer finds, therefore, in thecountry dealer, a staunch and loyalfriend and a defender of his rights.They pay taxes together, live side byside, their children play and go toschool together. When the crops arepoor or misfortune comes, to whomdoes the farmer look? Not to themail order magnate, but to his neigh-bor, the country merchant Howoften does the mall order concerntake any Interest in the political ques-

tions or legal measures beneficial tothe farmer? Yet with their bright-hue- d

catalogue of pictured "bargains"they reach out an open hand for thefarmer's hard earned dollar. Anddoes he get value received? Notoften. The first order he may, butthat Is only a bait The business isnot founded on principles, it is notbuilded on honorable methods, itsmighty walls are erected on graftThe goods are shop-wor- n or shoddy,or perhaps many kinds of goods havedefects so cunningly concealed thatthe naked eye can scarcely see a dif-

ference between these articles andthose of a much higher grade. Youare expected to send cash with theorder or have It ready when thegoods arrive with the big C. O. D.mark on the package. Your crop fail-

ure, or shortage of money doesn't In-

terest the mail order house, yourcredit with them is good only so longas your pocket book is filled. Yourorder Is made out and you pay forgoods you never saw, put up and se-

lected by men you do not know. Ifthese goods do not prove to be worththe money, 4f the shoes do not wearwell, or the suit Is shoddy goods, willthe mail order firm make them good?Not often. Yet the local dealer willdo this. He knows his honesty is hisbest drawing card. So much for theadvantage of dealing with honest men,and not with grafters.

Still other issues present them-aes-s

sub-statio- ns or branch housesselves in this connection. With therapid growth of the mail order bus!-ar-e

being established. These largefirms are dally reaching out for newsections of trade. What wiU be theresult along this line? With thegrowth of the catalogue house comesthe death of. the rural mercantiletrade. Let them once destroy thecountry merchant and the marketsof the world will he in the hands of afew wealthy capitalists. Their branchBesses will appear la all the countrytowss aad the farmer will no longerbe Independent. His friend, the conn- -

try dealer, who through competitionwas forced to pay the value of the'butter, eggs, etc, will be a thing-o- f

the past, and la his place will appearthe fat, gloating face of the capitalist.in whose benumbed conscience thereis no thought of pity, whose ''breastcontains Instead of a heart a greatlump of cold stony gold, whose oneufiibitlon is to build up a greater for-

tune than the world has ever seen,and who cares naught for the tears ortrials, woes or --weeping of his victimsso long asdie can squeeze a little moreof the coveted glittering treasure fromhim.

Again, the dollar spent with thelocal dealer stays In the communitywhere it blesses the spender over andover again. The merchant pays it tothe butcher for meat the butcher getshis,bread of the baker and thereforedrops the dollar into the baker's till,the baker pays it to the miller forflour, and the latter buys his grainfrom the farmer, so the dollar oncemore jingles merrily in the farmer'strousers pocket .But spend it withthe mail order house and it is gonenever to return. It goes to build upthe great commercial interests of NewYork or Chicago. Does it pay thefarmer to send his money to helpbeautify and build up these greatcities? Has he not more interest inbeautifying and building up his ownsection of the country? If not beshould. If a place is good enough fora man to live in and to make hismoney in. it is good enough for him tospend his money in. Who helps buildthe churches, school houses, streets,bridges, etc.?' Does the mail orderhouse help? Will they give a dollarto educate the farmer's children, ordonate anything to support the farm-er's widow or orphans? Do they helpto. pay the taxes, or add anything tobring comfort or necessary improve-ments in the country places? Thenwhy should the farmer patronizethem? By actual test it has beenfound that the same goods can be pro-

cured as cheaply, if not -- at more rea-sonable prices, at home. Trade withyour neighbor, whose interests areyour interests, whose hand is alwaysready to assist you in time of trouble.Patronize those who patronize you.Use the flashy catalogue of the mailorder house to help kindle the kitchenfire, and keep your money at homewhere it will benefit you and yosr

neighbors over and over again. Thefarmer's dollar, earned by honest toil,should not be added to the bloodmoney of these great mail order cor-porations. The farmer must join thelocal merchant and the country editorin battling this great peril that iscreeping, creeping onward with greatrapidity, and unless these forces arecombined and their efforts prove in-

creasing, the day is not far distantwhen the chance will be gone forever

the power will be too great to con-quer.
