.ALnEGED DIAMOND ROBBERY.
May williams says somebody Stole Her
Earrings.

May Williams yesterday reported to
the police that pair of diamond ear
rings, valued at two hundred and fifty
dollars, had been stolen from hSr
house at 1921 Eotf street. Her story is
that she gave them to one OF the in
mates of her house and when she
asked for their return they could not
be found. The girl says she left them
on the bureau. Several attachments
had been served on Miss wiiiiams's be-
longings before the loss was discovered.
Mrs. Elizabeth Mckinney, of 3l35
Main street, reported to the police yes
terday that Oscar Smith had stolen $40
from her and gone to Pittsburgh.

itation of the subject, which took for
granted that the secular press was alone
capable of evil. Every paper in the
country processes. at least. to support
good morals. except such papers as the
New York police publications, issued to
pander to the depraved. The ministry,
he thought, was over-eXacting and was
inclined to be bigoted in its discussion
of the daily press, and to forget that a
newspaper is historian as well as
commentator. No paper applauds evil
and all condemn it. A good moral in
fiuenee is all that the ministry should
demand of the secular press, and this
goodness should be the goodness OF
man, and not of God. 1t is the mission
of the religious paper to preach the
doctrine of Christianity, while the Secu-
lar press teaches the love of good gov
eminent. Their fields are different and
each does good in its own way. While
it would be absurd for the religious
paper to enter the field of politics, it
would be equally absurd for the secular
paper to go out simply as teacher OF
good morals as laid down in the word OF
God. The newspaper standard should
be an elevated one, and the world should
be the better for the newspaper, not
the worse. This rule of guild
ance should be accepted by
the editor, and no more should be eX-
pected of him. DIR. Hunter then went
into a long disposition of the differ
ences between the secular and religious
paper and their respective spheres-as
different as the common school and the
Sunday school. He used plain, COM
nonsense argument throughout. Re-
duced to plain language, the religious
paper is Published to disseminate
Christianity and morality, and the sec
ular paper is pure business enterprise
launched to make money Tor its owners.
Of course. the latter has moral RESPONSE
biiities which cannot be neglected or
overlooked. The secular paper must be
clean and wholesome enough for the
family; it must support right and con-
denim wrong, and must stand before the
public as the exemplar of the high, the
moral and the good. Its power for evil
is apparent, as it eXerts the influence of
the teacher. but this powerful influence
is nearly always for the right and Oh

full State Fair.
Scarcely two months remain before
the opening of the 1891 state fair and
the managers are hustling accordingly,
and with prospects of the best results.
Secretary w. f. Cross reports entries
coming in and very heavy cores
pondence relative to exhibits. He
is sending out great many
premium lists and has plenty
on hand for all who want them. He also
has a large supply Of copies OF the an
nual report of the state agricultural
society bound in one volume, with the
report of the state commissioner of sta
tistics and the manual of the state
Forestry association. This threefold
book is particularly valuable to farm
ers. Col. Cross or Assistant Secretary
Sam Partridge will send copy
to any one sending his adj
dress upon q postal card The
managers of this years fair are mapping
out an exceptionally fine amusement
programme to supplement the farmers
fair" which the show will be in every
sense of the word. Fun will be pro-
yided in the form of the usual races,
and a number of novelties, among which
a grand bicycle tournament is talked of
as a leading attraction. The idea is
popular with wheelmen. AS at last
wears fair, the farmers institutes will
be the features of the entertainment for
the rural population. This year they
will be held at night for the
benefit of the farmers. who will doubt
less take advantage of the liberal ar
rangements of the far managers for
tents on the grounds. The people who
camp out will find the evening Institutes
a fine thing. Secretary Cross predicts
very fine display of live stock of all
kinds and something unique in dairy
products and apparatus.

EXenlp1iOns Large.

". r. Kellog &. editor Daily Alert, Of James
town. n. D.-There is no one who does not
recognize that the TOrrey bankrupt bill, Civ
ing as 1t does uniform rights and response
bilities to debtors ana creditors throughout
the whole country. would be OF advantage to
commerce Our exemption are large, ana as
a result the farmers are required TO pay ex-
horbitant rates of interest. Capital is fear
ful. and farmers are unable to procure even
small loans without paying large bonuses and
ruinous rates of interest. The farmer
is foolish. in my opinion, in re-
curing such large exemptions. l
think this is a short-sighted policy.
The passage of a general bankruptcy law
would tend to strengthen credit and do away
with the evil effects of so large exemptions.
I think these views fairly represent those of
the conservative men VINO conduct The en-
terpriseS of our state.

1t is Necessary.

Mai. j. B. Kluetsch. publisher of the Freie
Presse, of Lincoln Nebraska-I think IL IS
necessary 10 have uniform bankruptcy law.
Under our state laws Il part of the creditors
frequently get all the estate. Our people
think that when man fails his estate should
be divided among all OF his creditors. There
certainly can be but one side TO the propo-
sition. that contracts ought to be enforced
with reference to their terms, instead of with
reference TO the residence Of the parties TO
them. In other words, we believe in our
country in the integrity of commercial
transactions and want justice to be enforced
between debtors and creditors. Such a
course will strengthen credit and result in
the advantage TO the whole people.

Build Up Credit.

Porter Warner. editor of the Daily Times.
Deadwood. s. ID. - Our people are inter
ested in the Torrey bankrupt bill and regard
it favorably. 1t was considered by our
board of trade at length, ana no objections
were urged to it. The general I'M
preston is that it will pro-
mote the credit and stimulate the
enterprises of our country. Because Of the
exemption laws of our state being so favor
able TO debtors the credit of all our business
men is impaired. The facts are that great
many debtors from other states have moved
to our state, and their influence upon legls-
latiOu has been such that our exemptions are
so large that a man may do moderate bus
mess upon the amount which is exempt.
The Necessity for so large an exemption
would not exist if the bill in question were
nassed, and the effect Of its passage and en-
forcement would be to overcome the evils
which we have experienced through our eX-
cessivelv favorable exemption laws. ] con-
fidently anticipate that the passage OF the
bill by congress viii result in the building up
of our credit and the promotion OF our best
interests
