Nebraska is now one of the best
states in the Union, but few people out
side of the commonwealth realize the
immense chance for development yet
open. When these have reached the
stage of development that has been
attained in the states farther east Ne
braska will unquestionably occupy q
front place in the rank of agricultural
states of the country. The soil, climatic
conditions and every other natural feat
ure warrant this belief. Nebrasks has
suffered considerably from what might
be termed the scandal gossip" in the
east and the people have been induced
to look upon her as a mass of sand piles,
with drouths, billiards, cyclones, lawless
bands of Indians and COW boys and other
accompaniment to render life burden
some. Her true standing is but just
being discovered and with this knowl.
edge her wealth will increase, her nat
ural resources be developed and the
population will grow. Those who are
early in realizing the states advantages

How much of q bearing the following
from the Lincoln Journal may have on
other cities We do not know, but give it
for what it may be worth: There is q
belief expressed in some quarters that
the new license and occupation tax ordi-
nance recently passed by the council can
be knocked out if attacked by the school
board. It is contended that as the
method of collecting the amounts named
is by prosecution the whole sum must be
classed as license money and should
therefore be turned into the school fund.
Others contend that the collection of the
amounts assessed against different occu-
pations will be made slowly and that
where the matter is fought no more can
be collected than the amount named in
the ordinance as license tax. Where q
person offers to pay his license tax and
demands his license it is not believed the
occupation tax part could be enforced
as the supreme court has decided that an
occupation tax cannot be collected by
prosecution. Opinions are divided on
this question, however"

A Big Blaze.

tinRent OF men and women was on the
premises a. workers or nearby specta-
tors.
A big blaze is always a great attrac-
ton to the ordinary mortal, and that OF
Thursday morning was no exception.
The Thermometer was below zero
surely, We have heard Of no one who
knows how far down.
The fire had started in the building oo-
cupied by Mrs. Minnie X. Schneider as
a candy and notion store. Lights had
been put out, and on retiring, hard coal
had. as usual, been put into the heating
stove, the drafts being turned of. This
stove was in the middle or living room,
the third or rear room being used for
storage Mrs. Schneider says that on
wakening, the front room was all ablaze,
and it was with difficulty that she and
her young daughter escaped from the
fire. Her best and most valued personal
effects were contained, she says, in q
large trunk which, with its entire con-
tents, was destroyed in the fire. She has
not the faintest idea of how the fire
started, but believes it was from the
outside and in the roof. She had but
500 insurance, $500 being on the stock
of goods worth $1,000 or more. She
had occupied the building since October
1893. and when fire destroyed the Wag-
ner building on the corner two doors
east, along with Mrs. Osborn's stock OF
millinery, MnL Schneider had no insur-
ance, but took the precsution shortly
after to place 500 insurance.
The two-story building east OF the
above was occupied by Weyman Brown,
the barber, Who saved his chairs and q
few other things. Loss S35. insurance
$95.
The building west Of Mrs. Schneider'a
had been occupied by Sam Kavich the
past three years with a miscellaneous
stock Of goods. At the time OF the fire
he valued his stock at S2,5OO. on which
he had g. 600 insurance on stock class
ified % groceries, dry goods and cloth
ing. He had 1900 bushels OF potatoes In
the cellar, ready for shipment, of which
he lost about 1000 bushels. Two mer
were sleeping in the room above thu
store. Quite q quantity Of goods VA
removed out Of this building before thu
fire took possession-as much as iv'
men could succeed in saving.
