TOO MANY GOVERNORS IN NEBRA!

Nebraska now has three governors en-
deavoring to exercise conflicting authority.
The Republican governor is holding the
Office and occupying the executive mansion
with the aid of the police and State mill
tary until the war between the other two is
settled. The Democratic governor is doing
business, or trying to, in improvised execu-
tive quarters, with the assistance of large
bodyguard of friends. He was elected on
the face of the returns. The Farmers Al
lance governor, who was not elected at all,
is holding Office by virtue Of the support of
the Legislature, which refuses to recognize
either of the other governors, the Alliance
having majority in both branches. In
this condition of things the people have,
thus far, shown forbearing and law-abid-
ing spirit. But continuance of such po-
litical conflict must inevitably lead to de-
moralization. In this case the Farmers
Alliance does not exhibit as much wisdom.

SNAP SHOTS IN SEASON.
IF divorce courts could issue attachments
marriage would not occasionally be failure.


Nor so quiet now as it was few days ago. Il
itf When the snow was deep on the city streets
its noises were mufiied. Cries dwindled down
to whispers, the tones of traffic fell lightly ON
the ears of the listeners, the clatter Of work
aday life was circumscribed, snow-bound. But
now it is all changed. The mufier has been
removed and the clang and bang Of commerce
is at its height. With frost in earth and air the
sounds take on a giants voice. The wheels
thump and bump over the stones, and every
bit of iron in the framework they haul seems to
give forth harsh sounds. Even the lightest sort
of street conveyance shakes the frost-knit crust
and the earth seems nothing more than shell.
The swift cars which were silenced by the snow
now noisily rush along, leaving behind a dis
cordant sound wave that beats tattoo on the
windows or among the chimney pots. Shrieking
whistles and loud bells call the toiler TO the
task or bid him rest from his labors. dog
baying at the moon in quiet neighborhood
will awake dreamer. Feet on pavement seem
to stamp angrily, and the very bricks have a
ring. Everybody seems big-lunged and loud
voiced. And how laugh does ripple through
the cold, sound nd-bearing air. especially If it be
dropped during a lull in your vicinity.
Surely winter without snow is a mis-
fit Nature appears to be out of
tune. We feel its harshness to the full when
the face of the old world is wrinkled, ridged
and furrowed in the frost-weiding process.
Under the snow it rests quietly. When the
white blanket is removed the sleeper snores
and roars. Sound waves clash in space, noises
make jingle iangle, and city life is a mighty
medley when the air is crisp and dry. the way
rutty and rough. the struggle man to man.
IF the thought is pure the body will not be
polluted

Grain, Flour and Feed.

There were no sales on call at the Grain
Exchange to-day, As receipts have been
liberal for the week past, and sales on call
have been few and far between, it Is evident
that outside trading is large or stock is heavy

life to cereal markets. Buyers only pur-
chase for their immediate wants, and specu-
latiye influences are absent There Is no
disposition to deal in futures in the present
uncertain condition of markets. Receipts
