like TO see the deadlock broken as speedily
as possible. We need two senator's at the
national capital at once and Edward Rose
water should be one of them.
Frank +. Roby, Proprietor of the Kearney
Flour Mills-As far as the interests of the
state are concerned we certainly should
get our representative to Washington as
soon as possible. The deadlock should be
broken at once in such manner as TO
benefit the state and reward those who
helped TO achieve the great republican vic
tory in Nebraska. One OF the men who did
this was Edward Rosewater and he should
be elected United States senator.
e. Frank Brown, eX-County Judge--The
senatorial deadlock should be speedily un-
locked and IL every member of the leglsla-
ture would be guided by the choice OF the
people, as expressed in the votes for SEN
atorial preference last fall, instead OF by
professional lobbyists, the result would be
shown by the election OF two good repub-
licans in short time.

A RUSSIAN CARNEGIE.
From The Pail Mall Gazette.

From The Pail Mall Gazette
So much news that makes painful reading
comes from Russia that ii is always a pleasure
to learn of those noble generous acts which
reveal the brighter side Of the MuscOvite char
acter and help to remember that the country
is, after all, a part Of Europe. The latest is a
very muniicent bequest for phanthropic pur-
poses which, had it been given in any other
civilized country but Russia would soon have
become topic of worldwide comment But a
generous deed from a Russian to Russia
mains almost unnoticed outside the realms of
the Gar. Gawril SZlodOWnikOw, who was a
man of great culture and who occupied posi-
tion similar in character to that of English
Privy Councillor, left recently sum of about
4, 100000, of which part Is to be devoted
to the erection Of high schools in Moscow where
girls will obtain the necessary classical educa-
tion to qualify them for university career,
while the remainder is to be spent in equal parts
the establishment of schools for mechanical
training for both sexes, and the cunstruc-
ton, in densely populated parts Of the city, of
large hotels-if such they may be termed-fur
the use Of the better classes of workingmen.
These hotels Will, ii is understood, be conducted
on the lines of the Rowton Houses, and il is
certain that they will be of equal, if greater
service, for the need for them, owing to the
peculiar social circumstances which prevail in
Russia, must be very pronounced.

the great merchant prince" OF the West III is
commonly believed that MI Field has never eX-
perienced anything but fatterinE recognition or
his business genius but, according TO a story
which is related by some of the older citizens
of Pittsfeid Mass there was occasion on
which the commercial gifts of the merchant king
failed make themselves apparent
When Marshall Field in his teens his
father decided he would make a merchant OF
the boy, and took him to Pittsfeld. where he
was placed in the store of family friend. The
father returned to Conway, and several months
PASSED before he again visited Pttsfield to learn
what progress his son was making. The keeper

very cordially, but hesitated for moment when
he was asked. "How's the boy coming on?"

you might well take him back with you. The
fact is. | don't think he's cut out for mer-
