Congress is again in session, and
the financial question is the allah
sorbing topic. This is a wonderful
subject, and every individual has his
own opinion OF how it should be ar,
ranged. What the ordinary, every,
day citizen wants is money that will
be good any day in the year, and
enough OF it so that all business may
be conducted in a healthy manner.

Southern states are helping Ne
braska' by shipping corn to the peo.
pie of western Nebraska. 1t might
also be added that the usual motive
is behind it, viz: \ desire to adver-
tise their own locality. We had some
experience in that line in this state.
Some years ago the charitable (?)
people OF Washington didn't let their
right hand know what the lett hand
was doing, etc, but when they sent IL
ear load OF all their finest things here
the sides OF the ear were blazoped
with banners. This "helping the des-
titute' is poorly managed so often
that it results in more detriment than
benefit. When m individual meets
with misfortune or reverses he Uses nil

We believe such II course should BID
pursued 10y a state or by n county
before any outside help is asked or
received. Nebraska is n good state;
part OF it is even now prosperous.
The whole state has heen prosperous
IN the past and will be again. I'm n

to help its own citizens, and work

worth OF "destitution goods" that
goes into Nebraska that state will Ia

way is for every individual. every
county and every state to rely upon
themselves until all their v re-
sources are eXha listed.

The new income tax is a blow at
marriage. Our young ladies with
$4,000 income have to pay only
$4,000, but when married they have
to pay taxes upon the full 10000.
The law should be repealed, because
in new countries like this we want to

Ex-Attorney Hutson claims that
a late supreme court ruling gives him
an opportunity to show that he was
entitled to 500 salary instead OF

missioners had the power to fix the
attorneys salary. Hand county at
that time paid $. V. Christ 800.
After ststehood the county commits,
sioners fixed the attorneys salary at
$500, while the constitution says

COUNTY EDUCATIONAL MATTERS.
BY SUPERINTENDENT MORTON.

To the. Hand county friends OF ed
ucatiOn:
1t gives me pleasure to greet you.
Our cause is common, U aims are
one, our schools need no apology.
Through the untiriGg efforts of Mr..
Failing, ably seconded by yourselves,
the schools of the county have stead
lily marched onward. May We not
continue to advance all along the
line of educational training, which
alone can fill us with Joy for having
engaged in the work.
Let us remember that true educa-
ton is that which tends to the best
development for mind and body;
that which calls forth the noblest
faculties and enables'u us to form co.,
rect habits of thought, feeling and
action.
The times demand OF us that we
give our boys and girls the fruits
garnered from the best educators OF
this and other times. TO meet this
demand means better qualification
and more thorough work. Let us
"Gird up our souls within us to the
deed"
| will endeaver to assist you in all
ways that | can, and shall take
pleasure in meeting you and talking
over the things which concern your
interests.
Our school laws have perplexed
many OF us and in a few instances
have caused trouble. Our experience
teaches us that forbearance and Il
determination to comply with the
requirements is the only wise solu-
ton of these questions.
Many of our teachers have called
for examination papers The Co.
commissioners have kindly consent
ed to equip us again. 1t will be per-
haps ten days before the paper is
ready for delivery.

SHE TALKED ABOUT FIRE.
Miss Hill Delivers an Interesting Lecture
on the Birthstone Place.

Last evening at the Y. NJ. c. A. audi
torium, a full house greeted the evan
gelist Miss Edith HILL Her subject
was Hell; and she handled the subject
in a very impressive manner. She
pictured in a very vivid manner the
downward trend OF a person who con-
tinues in that direction until death, and
then not stopping but continuing in the
same direction until, from an earthly
standpoint, their depth is unconceiva-
bic. She pictured the fate OF the un-
just, filthy, covetous. and the thoughts
and actions pertaining 10 dishonesty,
immortality and vice; and what the out
come would be in a very striking man

tions, to which men and women can
dScend and that If they can become
so low during the few years that they
live on earth what may they become in
an eternity of continuance in the same
course.
At the end OF her lecture Mrs.
Schwartz sang d solo entitled Too
Late" which was quite impressive.
At the mems meeting Sunday after
noon she also had a crowded house,
her subject being the New Woman
and New Man." which was appreciated
by all those present. Mr.. and Mrs.
COldwell sang a duet at the close. which
touched the audience quite visibly.
The speaker displays a large amount
OF energy in speaking; and talks with
that assurance that goes with those
who have the entire conviction of what
they say. Her powers in description
are greater than many of the better
known speakers; and they are deliver
ed in a manner which tends TO make
the listeners remember them. On the
whole she talks in a very quiet dis
passionate manner but with a force
which comparatively few speakers pos
