AT the Commercial bank are two

AT the Commercial bank are two
sample specimens of Platte county
grain that are worth looking at. The
winter wheat is from the farm of WEIGH
& Son in the western part Of the county
and is from a yield of $50 bushels on IL
acres, or very nearly 34lss bushels to the
acre and weighing 81 pounds to the
bushel from the machine-pretty fair
for what is now known as a dry year.
The other is corn from the farm Of c. h.

ears being large and plump, and ap-
preaching the dimensions OF John Tan
nahill's biggest ear of cOrn in the world.

The following bit of advice is wOr-
thy of consideration: "When you are
preparing to cOme to town to do some
trading, pick up your home paper. glance
at the advertising columns and see who
wants your trade. Well guarantee that
if you trade with those who recognize
the local papers as an incentive to their
business, they will ave you money.
The man who advertises certainly has
inducements to offer You or he wouldn't
ask you to call on him before buying
elsewhere. HSchuyler Herald.
Henry G. Bean was at the reunion
at Grand Island last week from We'd

The country there, he says, is very dry,
and the farmers are cutting their corn
as a substitute for hay. COmrade

union seemed about as many as usual,

The Boston Herald has been entirely

mill, as is evident when il saws:

misled in regard to the affairs of the plush
mill, as is evident whenit says:
The financial difficulty of the Portland Plush
Company may have been partly due to business
troubles other than its own operations; but it Is
a little significant that onesof the Industries
which it was said the Mckinley law would Pc
time after the passage of that law, be forced to
make an appeal to its shareholders to assess
themselves for the purpose OF keeping the con-
Germ out of bankruptcy,
The plush mill has never been in oper-
alton beyond making few samples. Its
difficulty lies in the fact that enough
working capital has never been obtained
to start it's wheels in motion. 1t may be
that the placing of the country in the
hands of the Democrats at the last Presi-
DENTAL election deferred some who would
have invested; but the passing of the
Mckinley law had no unfavorable effect.
The mill was not thought sof until that
law had been in operation for several
months. Indeed it was that law that en-
couraged the promoters of the enter
prise to 60 ahead. When the mill is
completed and ready to turn out fin
ished product for the market, there will
be ample time for the Boston Herald to
determine whether the Mckinley bill will
help or hurt. eaN as E5za4

Professor Emile Levasseur has been
sent by the Academy of Moral and Pc
litical Science of France to make a study
of the relations of labor and capital in
this country, and the conditions of the
employers and the employed. He has
begun in New York by meeting and con-
versing with the representatives of or.
ganized labor. One of the most promi-
nent of these has told him that the hiqh
wages of the American laborer are due to
the labor unions. Before Prof. Leyas-
seur has completed his inquiries, which
he proposes to extend into New England
and the Middle States, he will probably
find that high wages are not due solely
to the labor unions. They have assisted
somewhat, perhaps, but the preservation
of our splendid home market and the
superior intelligence of our working peo-
pie are the main causes. The highly
perfected systems Of trades unions
abroad have never been able to bring
wages up to the American level.

We are in favor of the free and unlim-
tied coinage Of silver, whether the ratio
be Is for or 20 for l. We think the RAJ
ito and the parity cries are the scare
crows of the gold bugs. If the govern
ment maintains its paper currency at
par, we see no good reason why silver
cannot pass current as we'll as paper.
The printing of the paper currency
should not make it more valuable than
the coinage of silver currency.

Teaching the Children.

"How would you educate child
rem in the home and regarding the
outside world ?" was asked of one
of the greatest of instructors. He
hesitated as he answered, because,
as he explained, "There has yet
been devised no perfect method
for that great end; the end fathers
and mothers most think upon.
"But," he added, "what think |
would do, would be this: l would
get pictures of the greatest his
torical events and of the greatest
historical places. 1 would have ac-
companying each picture a sim
pie description telling what it all
meant, and the bearing Of the
thing on history. | would have
the pictures good ones, so that the
child's artistic sense should be I'M
consciously developed while facts
were learned, and l would so make
the youth of both sex familiar with
what had happened and where it
had occurred. | would make the
great buildings of the world, and
those famous because of what had
happened in them, or of those who
the child as could be the nearest
neighbours house. So | would make
children developing into manhood
or wOmanhOOd-withOut hard
study or conscious effort, but mere
ly by interesting them with some
thing striking-better learned than
are many who now graduate from
the high school or the college,"
Just what the great educator
said was the best method Of teach
ing the growing family the LIGHT
is now affOrdIng the means for do
ing. 1t is, at a mere nominal price,
supplying the pictures which were
recommended as the forces to &C
complish a great result, and sup
plying not only the pictures, but
the accompanying succinct histo.
ry. 1t is putting into the hands of
every father and mother, practical
ly without cost, the means for max
ing their children morebroadly edu-
Gated men and women than they
would be otherwise. This is but
one of the bearings Of the feature
the LIGHT is enabled now to offer,
but it is an important one. Men
and women live largely for their
children. In this mere offer of
newspaper is afforded the means of
making those children better in
formed and WISER and more success
full men and women. 1t is one of
the incidents of the progress of the
age. Should not the opportunity
be improved?

SHOULD BE PROVIDED FoR.

No argument against the establishing
of precedent which may in the future
prove costly should blind congress to
its plain duty in dealing with those who
have suffered by the collapse OF Ford s
theater.
The clerks who were employed there
were not in the remotest degree respon-
sible for the catastrophe. There was no
contributory negligence on their part
They were obliged to work in the
ramshackle death trap or forfeit their
places. Still further, the responsibility
for compelling large force of clerks to
remain in the building after its danger
Gus condition was known rests upon
the government.
A score or more of families have been
robbed of their main prop and support
by this tragedy, and every sense OF JUS
tice and humanity demands that they
be at least saved from want. Money is
at best but poor salve for sorrowing
hearts, but it can keep the wolf from
the door and make life little less
cherries for those whose grief appeals
to the sympathies of nation.
