WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

Steps have been taken for NEST
ing in May of represen tatives of all
the American college fraternities to
perfect plans for o collective exhibit
by these influential examinations in
the Liberal Arts Building. The fra
tsrnities, with mem bership of about
l50, 000 graduates. from the leading
colleges, including many of the most
emiuent men in all professions, con-
template spending nearly 5000 In
displaying their valuable historical
collections and the varied products
of their unique system. These organ
izations have taken part in no forme r
exhibition, but assurance have been
given that space will be afforded and
some of the Oldest and best known
have already signified their intention
to participate, probably In competi-
ton. AS result of the undergrad
uate rivalry there is no doubt that
the exhibit will be a center OF attrac.
ton for visiting collegians. 1t is
possible that most of the fraternitiee
will hold conven lions In Chicago dur.
ing the Fair and a proposition has
been made that Panhellenic council
the auspiecee of the Worlds Congress
Auxiliary: These and other matter
will be discussed by the committt Q
at the meeting In May. Among Il Q
larger college fraternities are: Alpha
Delta Phi. Beta Theta Pi, Delta
Kappa Epsilon, Delta Epsilon, Phi
Delta Theta, Phi Kappa Psi, Psi Up
silon and Sigma Chi.
The newly eIectected Directory has
chosen officers of the Exposition as
follows: President, w T. Baker.
First Vice President, II. r. Higin-
bothau, Secretary; II. O. Edmunds,
Attorney; w. X. Carlisle, Treasurer;
A. F. Seeberger, Auditor; w. X.
Alderman. A cut to the extent of
nearly $4,000 q year was made in
salaries.
Mrs. F. M. Dryden, manager of the
American Lutheran School for Girls,
at Guntoor. South India, has applied
for space In the Woman's Building
for an exhibit of work from that in
stitution. The display will be made
under the patronage of Lady Wen
lock. wife of the Resident Governor,
and through the assistance of the
Nizam (MohaInedan king) OF Hydera-
bad. The Nizsm has been petition ed
to furnish money to buy the costly
material for the silver and gold en-
broideries which, in the form of cur
tains, wall hangipgs, table cloths,
altar cloths, and dress trimmings,
will constitute the principal portion
of the exhibit The Nizam will
probably also furnish the means to
support the women while the work
is being prepared.
The Board of Lady Managers pro.
poses to erect near the Woman's
building q children's home or public
comfort pavilion for mothers and
children. The estimate for the build
ing is $4,000, and for maintenance
$4,000, which sums 1t is proposed 10
raise by subscription. It'll believed
that such a place where young chill
dreD can be safe and we'll cared for
while their parents view the sights
of the Exposition will prove to be
great and appreciated convenience

DIVERSIFIED INDUSTRIES.

Nebraska learned in her recent years
OF misfortune that permanent prosperity
cannot be expected by farmers who
depend solely upon corn and wheat.
Diversified crops are essential to sue
cessful farming and diversified indus
tries are the key to a steady income for
the people of the state at large There
fore il is that sugar beet growing is at
tracing wide attention among our
farmers. They perceive in this profit
able crop which may help them through
season when corn or wheat Isl failure.
Likewise interest is manifested in the
reports that come to w from the coun-
ties where tobacco and hemp have been
successfully grown. 1t is comparatively
few years since flax was sown extensively
and even now the straw is permitted to
go to waste. Every new crop which
farmers learn to make profitable adds to
the security of their undertakings as
well as the profits of their labors and
encouragement should be given to all
associations and individuals who arc in
telligently engaged in testing the rela-
tive merits OF crops or are aiding in the
cure and prevention OF diseases in farm
animals.
Not only so, but farmers and citizens
generally owe it TO themselves and the
state at large to encourage the indus
tries which consume home grown raw
material. This state should be as inde-
pendent as possible OF all Others Every
factory established in Nebraska employs

men supports rs many families, and if
he is successful his force of employees
will be increased as his business de-

one cent directly or indirectly for
bonuses, can double the capacity of every
factory in the state within three months
if they will. They can do it by pat
ronizing them.
The best we can do in Nebraska we
shall be forced to send away great

PUBLIC BUILDINGS.

The outlook for extensive. or even
liberal, appropriations for public build
ings by the present congress is not
favorable. This was clearly indicated
by tfe discussion in the senate few
days ago of a bill making an appropria-
tion for public building at Reno, New.
In the course of the discussion Senator
Allison, chairman of the committee on
appropriations, remarked that If con-
gress is to appropriate large sums for
public buildings in each of the growing
and prosperous cities in the western
country he should have some fear that
there might not be money enough in the
treasury to erect all these public build
ings. and at the same time provide for
other necessary expenditures in carry
ing on the great work of the govern
ment. The senator admonished the
committee on public buildings and
grounds that it is not wise to amplify
and enlarge too rapidly the appropria-
tious for public buildings, and he prom
isel that at some later day and at some
more opportune time, when the senate
was interested in the subject, he would
discuss the general question of appro-
priations which can be made usefully,
and some which he thought ought not to
be made at all, showing at the same time
the resources of the treasury. This is
task to which Senator Allison might,
with great propriety, give his early at
tention, in order that the country could
be authoritatively informed regarding
the resources of the treasury.
The senate has almost uniformly been
more liberal than the house in making
appropriations for public buildings, but
the warning and adponltion of the
chairman of tho senate committee on
appropriations indicates that during the
present congress that body will pursue a
conservative course as to this line of eX-
penditures. 1t is a sound general prop
osition that the government of tho
United States should own the buildings
necessary to carry on the business OF
every department of the government.
1t is probably true, MS was said by sem
ator in the discussion to which reference
has been made, that OF all the expendi-
lures that are made by this government
the most defensible are those for public
buildings Wise policy and good busi-
ness management dictate that wherever
the business of the government yields
revenue that will warrant the
erection OF public building one
should be provided. But this is
a matter dependent upon the con-
dition OF the public treasury, and at
present the resources of the treasury
demand prudence in expenditures of this
class, and indeed of all classes.
The outlook therefore is that congress
will do little more than make provision
for completing and carrying forward
public buildings now in process OF con-
struction. Many communities that ARE
hoping to get something from the ma
tional treasury in this way, but which
cannot show the very strongest claims,
