A Man to Admire.
" T WILL be the unanimous opin-
ion Of all who know Hon.
N Charles f. MandersOn, of Omaha.


ion Of all who know Hon.
N Charles f. Manderson, of Omaha,
Neb., that the American Bar as
sOciation never made a worthier se-
lection than when it chose him to be
its president in succession to our pres
ent ambassador to England, Hon. Jo-
seph II. Choate.
Mr.. Manderson has won eminence
ana fame in every field of enterprise
in which he has engaged. He was a
first class soldier during the war Of
the rebellion; he made a first class
senator when he represented Nebraska
in the United States senate; he is ad-
mttedly at the head of the bar of the
Trans Mississippi region, which in
cludes within its membership many OF
the brightest lights of the country;
and in the public and social activities
Of Omaha he is as pre-eminent as he
is courteous, affable and progressive.
Enjoying about as much of honor and
the appreciation of his fellow men as
it is possible for one man to enjoy.
Senator Manderson nevertheless pre-
scnts the happy spectacle of a man
who is not spoiled by prosperity. 1t Is
a delight to notice the cordial democ-
racy Of his daily intercourse with the
people around about him; and espec-
tally charming is the friendly interest
which he shows in PennsylVanians
who come within his ken; for he is a
Pennsylvanian himself in upbriRging,
and no one who was present on Penn
sylvania Day at the Omaha exposition
will forget the sincerity Of his greet
ing to those who had journeyed thith-
er from the keystone state.
Men like Charles f. Manderson are
sufficiently rare TO deserve TO be priced
above the ordinary. and We note with

A Remarkable Performance.

A man from Pine Knob stood watching

"Done what?" "Wy, crowded mon half

UGH ADO Is being made
vi by the "insurgent" press
4 y n over two amendments to
the rules of the Republi-
can party in Pennsylvania adopted at
the recent state convention without op-
position from any quarter. Charges Of
a dire conspiracy to throttle party SEN
timent are freely banded and conse-
cuCntly it becomes intelligent persons,
not to accept these notoriously partis-
an opinions off-hand, but to look into
the matter.
The first amendment. that to the
rule requiring state delegates to be
chosen in the manner in which candi-
dates for the general assembly are
nominated, added the words, cor in ac-
cordance with the party rules in force
in the respective counties of the COM
monwealth." That is to say, the Re-
publicans of any county may make or
modify the party rules governing the
election of state delegates in that
county, and not the Republicans OF
each legislative district. as is now the
Thus in Lackawanna the county con-
vcntion would establish rules govern
ing each of the four districts in their
choice of state delegates, and uniform
ity in procedure would be assured.
This simply equalizes representation In
the state convention and makes the
county the unit of power in all
Of the counties, instead of the coun-
| ty in some of the counties and the
| legislative district in other counties.
| 1t is as fair for the goose as it is for
the Candcr.
The second amendment does not
| touch Lackawanna but is of interest In
| several neighhoring counties. 1t pro-
| vides that when the Conferrees in any
| congressional. senatorial or judicial
| district are unable to agree and make
| a nomination fifty-fve days prior to
! the general election the State COM
| mittee shall appoint one additional
| conferrec from each county in the dis
| trict. and, if no nomination is then
made shall appoint a referee, who
| shall make the nomination. The claim
made by the "insurgent" press against
! this rule is that under it's operation the
| Quay men could manufacture dead
! locks and then by means of the state
| committees intervention nominate
whom they should please. Having
| themselves manufactured a deadlock
| last winter on the senatorship, their
| argument against deadloCks is some
| what inconsistent; but all factional-
| ism aside, why should not the state
| committee or high tribunal of a party
| preserve party representation by inter-
| VeninC to end deadlock which, if not
| ended would mean a violation of rep
| resentative government? There is
remedy against possible abuse of this
| rule in the abandonment of the con-
| ferree system. and those Republicans
| who want direct nominations must
| make their fight in the various coun-
| ties, whether the state committee has
| power to end deadlocks or not.
Sifted down, the "insurgent" position
is that these new rules are all right il
| honestly applied but that the Quay
| men are such a disreputable set OF
| thieves and rascals that they cannot
| be trusted. To this line of argument
| it will continue to believe it and those
who do not will not be greatly i'm.
| pressed by it.

A Desirable Bit of shrubbery.

When Professor Weber, Of the United
States agricultural department discovered
after years of study that the seeds of
many fruit bearing trees were poly en-
bryotic, that is, that ii was possible to
grow more than one fruit from the same
seed, the possibilities of intergrafting be-
came far greater than had ever before
been suspected, and Director Frederick
Taylor, Of the concession department Of
the Pan-American exposition, which will
be held i'm the city of Buffalo during the
summer months OF the year 1901, saw
possibilities for the consummation Of
hoped-for, but dcspaired-of result.
professor Weber has succeeded in
growing three distinct varieties of lemons
from one seed by intergrafting," said
Mr.. Taylor land his success has prompt
ed me to make some researches in that
line. / am now working on "A couple OF
trees and shrubs, and with the success
which ] confidently expect | hope to show
to the populace tree which will be
vastly popular in the summer time and
which every man will wish to purchase, j
am intergrafting the lime tree with the
juniper bush. What do you think of the
idea?"
Don't know" was the blank answer.
"What sort OF fruit do you expect to
raise by such an intergraft?"
From the plain lime tree we get
lines" said the director. "From the
Juniper bush we get juniper berries. From
juniper berries gin is made. From the
intergrafted tree we shall get both. The
fruit will be gin rickies."
