state are ready for battle and ready to
meet the imperialistic trust party.
Here is what the Omaha World Herald
has to say on the matter:
But the battle in Nebraska il 1899
will not be confined to state issues.
The republican party will be chal-
lenged on the stump and through
the newspapers Of the state to q de-
fence Of the republ rolicy Of i'm
perialism, of the republican policy
of militarism, Of the republican
policy otgovernment by the banks,
Of the republican policy that is res
ponsible for the rapid growth Of
trusts, Of the republican policy that
seeks to make gold the sole and only
money. It will be challenged to a
defence of the republican plan to
adopt for this republic colonial
policy, plan that comprehends the
dethronement Of a republic to make
place for an empire, q plan that
comprehends the denial of the es-
tablished American principle that
governments derive their just pow
ers from the consent Of the govern
ed. 1t will be challenged to de-
fence of republican policy where
by the greatest Of all republics has
placed upon its pay roll the sultan

competency for the support Of his
twelve wives.

GERMANS ON I1fPERIALIsM.
German American citizens know
what militarism means. They have
lived under that system in the father
land. They know that it takes the best
years Of the citizens life and devotes it
to the trade Of blood They are loath to
see the same system inaugurated in this
country. .i5
i An immense meeting Of representa-
tive German-Americans was recently
held at Detroit, Michigan, at which the
following resolutions were adopted:
eve, the German-Americans Of De-
troit and vicinity, now here assembled,
and we, the representaiives>of seventy
two German churches, societies and
lodges, are mindful Of the fact that our
blood and treasure belong to our Amer
lean Fatherland, our new home, to
whom we have voluntarily rendered
the oath Of allegiance.
.tWe look back with just pride upon
the glorious past and the enexampled
development Of this country and the
prominent part which the German
Americans have taken therein
s'The German-Americans have been
splendidly represented in all branches
of science and art and general culture,
commerce. industry and agriculture,
and when called upon to draw the
sword for their new country, the Ger-
man Americans have always been found
in the front ranks. .- ss RI.
Following this il.ustrious precedent,
we are ready always to put forth our
best endeavors, when called upon, for
the liberty and prosperity Of this coun-
try and to defend it against internal
and external foes.
For that very reason we now pro-
test against the falsehoods, oslumnies
and malicious agitation given utterance
to by the yellow press" and we also
protest against Imperialism, Militarism
and any foreign alliances: We espec-
tally protest against an alliance with
England, for the reason that such an
alliance could only involve Us in nm
necessary political controversies and
bloody wars.
Truly the United States has no cause
to make sacrifice for England's sake,
for history irrefutably teaches that
ENGLAND, since the war Of Independence
has alwaysahowa hatred Of this coun-
try and hse endesvored 70 destroy the
Union whenever : chance offered. #
England to-day assumes . friendly atti-
tude toward this country, we German
Americans merely consider that as q
specimen of that Anglo-Saxon hypocri-
Icy which has always characterized
England's foreign policy. We are con-
WINGED that England eatertains the
secret hope to turn this glorious repub-
lie from its old reliable course and put
our welfare in jeopardy through inn
perialism and lniitarism-
We protest against the systematic
attempts through fslsehoods and ma
lcious agitation to disturb the friendly
relations which existed between the
United States and Germany for the
past 100 years.

liberty for this country and no sort Of
English guardianship.

A BANQUET APPETIZER.

One Of the Worthing boys writes
home to his wife, land it is proper to
say that he was one of the bravest men
in the regiment what he wants before
the prepared banquet begins. E. w.
Norton saw the letter, and here is part
Of it.
Il see they are preparing to give us a
grand banquet when we return to
Lincoln county. That's all right, but
I want some thing to eat before that
banquet comes off. And I want it at
home. Iwant it on the table when 1
get home too. What do I want? Well,
here's the list:
'tSirloin steak, rare.
"Hot biscuits and plenty of them,
made by you.
Flour and milk gravy, about three
quarts.
Mashed potatoes.
Apple sauce.
t'Corn on cob, eleven ears.
''String beans
Sliced tomatoes.
'Mccaroni and cheese.
Peaches and cream.
Chocolate cake.
''Ice cream.
I want you to get all these things
ready. We have had plenty to eat since
reaching San Francisco, but when
things are camp cooked they all taste
alike. Cook 'em yourself, and don't
think because I've been away over a
year You can ring in any hired girl
cooking on me. When I get through
with this bill Of fare I'll be ready to
tackle the banquet. @

Next Tuesday is Valentine Day
According TO the legend ST. Nalen-
tine was beheaded on February
I4th, at Rome, under Claudius.
The old notion was that birds be-
gan to couple on that day, and
hence arose the custom OF young
persons OF both sexes choosing
each other as valentines" tor the
ensuing year by species OF lottery,
and OF sending love mIssives to
each other. The practice OF send
ing valentines appears 10 be dImin-
ishing year by year. Postal re-
turns indicate a great falling oil IN
the number OF valentines sent dur
ing the past decade, one large
Office showing decrease from
II7,ooo to $4,000 within five
years. The sending OF caricatures
has equally decreased. and the
veiled insults thus frequently of
fered have been credi,ably reduced.
The sending of valentines is a
harmless folly, which is dying out.

is sad one, and ought TO be an
effective warning to our military

to six years suspension from duty

Money derived from the sale OF
state school lands is credited to
the internal improvement fund,
which must be used exclusively
for improvements within the state.
There is approximately sI6o, 900
in this fund at the present time,
and every legislator in the assembly
has introduced a bill taking a whack
at it for improvements in the way
OF canals. reservoirs, artesian wells,
roads and bridges. The demands
made by the measures introduced
in the house and senate will not
fall much short OF 81, 900, 900.

ready for operation by September
18th, The growers have pledged
2, 900 acres and the business men
OF the city 1900 acres additional.
Where few men have been
gathered together in Grand juno
ton the chief topic discussed was
the sugar beet. Thousands OF
acres will be planted, raised and
marketed during the year 1899,
and the proceeds spent daily.
Eastern capitalists are agitating

Many suggestions have been made to
enable sugar manufacturers TO utilize
their factories during the time when
there is no sugar to be made, and thus
to avoid leaving the invested capital
lie idle the greater part of the year, but
little success has yet been had in the
matter. A fresh suggestion is made
by an engineer, S. Bell, in Die Deutsche
ZuckerinduStrie.
The extra outfit necessary TO utilize
the plant should, of course, be lneXpen-
sive, and the labor required to operate
the machines not in excess of that en-
ployed regularly in the sugar factory.
Another important requirement is that
the raw material should be at hand
everywhere, and there should be a
ready market for the product.
All these conditions being fulfilled,
the operation of the factory during the
idle months of the sugar year must
certainly be remunerative. 1t is be-
lieved that this applies to the manufac-
ture of artificial sandstone from lime
and sand, which, under steam pressure,
enter a chemical combination calcium
silicate) and supply stones which have
become very popular in building. Their
resistance is in excess of 416 pounds
per square centimeter; they are per-
fectly weatherprOOf, and can be pre-
pared in a cheap and simple manner.
The power required for mixing the
sand and lime and pressing the stone
could be supplied by one of the steam
engines, and would amount to about
thirty or thirty-five horse power for
10000 stones for ten hours, while the
steam necessary for hardening the
stones would be supplied by the boil
ers. The most expensive part of the
plant would thus be ready, and need
not be procured especially for this use.
The raw material for the stones, viz.
sand, will probably be found near most
sugar factories. The amount required
is about 2.5 cb. m. per ! 900 stones. The
