IT WOULD be a strange thing Indeed
if a Nebraska exhibit train shoul d have
to start out with the county of Douglas
unrepresented, and yet that very result
is feared by the Nebraska State Busi-
ness Mems association, as is shown by
the appeal of Secretary Hodgin for sub
scriptions from the citizens of Omaha.
The funds required for the Douglas
county, exhibit have not been provided,
the committee having been unable to
obtain the money expected from the
county commissioners. The directors of
the association say that their finances
are in such condition that 800 more
will be needed from this county in addi-
tion to small amount left over from
last year. AS the train is to start on
the Goth instant it will be seen that the
time for securing proper representa-
tion from this important county is very
short 1t is unfortunate that depen-
dence was placed upona a source of manly
supply that was necessarily uncertain.
Butif the work is pushed perhaps some-
thing may yet be done.

ST. PErsRspuRG, Sept 22.-in April last
Mrs. Alma Sainie wife OF n professor in tho
state college at Tavastehuus. Finland, was
found guilty Of poisoning her husband, and
In accordance with a medieval law
was sentenced to be beheaded and
her body to be afixed to n
beacon and burned. She is but
% years old. She married the professor in
1890 and has one child. She confessed the
crime, saying she poisoned her husband In
order to secure the insurance, as by her ex-
travagance she had become largely In debt.
Her case was carried to the court Of appeals,
and that court has not only affirmed it, but
ordered that her right hand be cut off as au
additional punishment for having several
times forged her husbands name to small
checks some time before his death. rhe
sentence is most terrible one, aud 1t Is

THE date of the departure OF the Ne
braska exhibit train No. is September
26, next Monday. AS yet no provision
has been made for having Douglas
county represented in the exhibit 1t is
manifestly most desirable that the
county in which is located the metrop-
oils of the state shall contribute TO the
display of Nebraska's products, and a
failure to do this will be reflection upon
the enterprise and public spirit OF our
people. The county commissioners hav-
ing disappointed the committee of the
State Business Mems association in not
contributing the money expected from
them, an appeal is made for popular
subscription, the amount it is desired to
secure being between $500 aud 5000 1t
is to be hoped the appeal will receive a
ready response from the business COM
munity, SO that Douglas county may

good may be accomplished by the send

In ORDER to fully appreciate the won
derful growth of the business at the
South Omaha stock yards, it is only
necessary TO compare figures, which not
only tell the truth but also speak vol
umes In very limited space. From Janu-
ary to date the receipts at the Union
stock yards this year exceeded those OF
the corresponding period last year as
follows: Cattle, l07 7,675; hogs, 173, 2Si;
sheep, 1869; horses and mules, 3,sO4.
Such an increase as this justifies the be-
lief that South Omaha is determined TO
become in the near future the greatest
live stock and packing center in the
world. The influence of such a business
upon the future of Omaha can hardly be
overestimated.

The Farce OF Law-Muking.

ITWU N-'' III 7 UIto.
The frightful facility with which laws can
be enacted in this country is "a potent agency
IN bringing them into disrepute. Hundreds
of statutes are practically dead letters, out
grown by public opinion ana attempted en-
forcement would be popularity interpreted as
persecution. Venal, Incompetent and con-
ceited legislatures, largely composed OF mem
bers destitute of the first qualifications OF
statesmanship. often make the law-makinR
power almost farcical. They put some things
upon the statute books that would disgrace
the Russian czar. The people have yet to
realize that a legislature no less than a
satrap can be odiously tyrannical.

that he was sleek enough to pack eau
