PERHAPS.

If we could live ten thousand years, perhaps
we'd see this earth
All radiant with smiling and all musical with
mirth.
But men and likewise nations all declare with
war1ike zest
"We'll show you we're the biggest, even if
we're not the best"
And they blow upon the bugles and the mar
tial drums they pound,
And it's weird and weary waiting till a thou
sand years roll round;
But at last therell be rejoicing through the
near and distant lands,
When we get these matters settled and
we all shake
hands.
Those who study human nature say that
while it's strange it's true
That men like each other better when they've
had fight or two.
The hand of many foeman in all friendliness
you've gripped,
And you found him good fellow-when you
had him good and whipped.
The Chinaman talks nonsense and the Russian
seems to sneeze-
How can we get in sympathy with languages
like these9
But perhaps therell come time when each
the other understands
And we'll get these matters settled and
we'll all shake
hands

PLANTING TREES.

The Shenandoah Sentinel, comment
ing on suggestion of Mr.. Morton's
in The Conservative, that tree be
set out somewhere for every child
that is born, expresses itself as fol-
lows:
J.Sterling Morton's beautiful fad is
tree planting. He originated Arbor
Day and is bound to have arbors
plenty. It's all right too-a good
thing. But he didn't take account
Of the difficulties in the way Of car
rying out the plan. Thousands of
babies come to parents who have no
spot of ground on which to plant
trees and thousands more to those
whose little town lot is already full
of trees, while on the other hand are
thousands who have abundance of
ground but no babies Babies and
trees, both we'll formed and trained,
will save Nebraska or any other state
and make it arboreal and ideal. But
you'll have to arrange it so that
there'll be an arbor- master to plant
trees for those babies who come with
out foot of ground to stand upon that
they can call their own. A better
plan to make the state beautifully
arboreal'' was suggested by the Sen
tinel not long ago and that was that
every pupil of every school in the
land, on Arbor Day, go out and plant
tree along some public road, plant it
with his or her own young hand and
give it a name and call it his or hers
through all the coming years.

clusion as to
how many Buffalo Joneses there
have been, why they were so
called and how many of them
are now dead. All the papers agree
that the "original'' Buffalo Jones
died the other day in Salina, but his
initials vary all the way from H. L. to
@. J. We have heard of B. Jones for
many years as dealer in the Ameri-
can bison, and had supposed that he
had his name from his occupation.
We now learn, however, that he was
a member of some legislative body,
from western Kansas, at time when
his constituents were almost exclusive
ly buffalo, and that this circumstance
gave him his fame. And here comes
the usually Informed Atchison
Globe. and says that he succeeded
in perfectly tanning number of wild

animals"

A CORRECTION.

A recent telegram sent out from Ne
braska City relative to the age of the
Nebraska City News and the date of it's
birth in the old block house here, is
historically incorrect
The first number of the News issued
from the block house was dated April
10, 1866. 1t was published by the Ne
braska City town site company. 1t was
edited by j. Sterling Morton and the
foreman was Thomas Morton.
Prior issues Of the News were printed
at Sidney, Iowa, and the type and press
never reached Nebraska City until
1866.
After the town site company became
tired of the newspaper business the two
men mentioned, as editor and foreman,
bought the outfit and continued the
publication. The News is the oldest
newspaper in the state of Nebraska, but
was not the first printed in Nebraska;
the first was the Bellevue Palladium.

New York. August 2s--Mrs. Carrie
Nation arrived in this city today. She
had an interview with Police Cormis-
sioner Murphy during which he told her
that she would be arrested if she vio-
lated the law in this city
Mrs. Nation also called at John L

Sullivan sent down word that he was

her next Monday. She then went to see
Archbishop Corrigan, but he was out of
town.
When Mrs. Nation entered police
headquarters she was at once shown
to Commissioner Murphy's room. In
opening her interview with the commits
sioner she said she had called on him
for an account OF his stewardship and
asked if he did not think New York was
an awfully wicked place. The commits
sioner replied in the negative, and Mrs.
Nation repeated the question as an as
sertion; whereupon MIR. Murphy re-
not discuss the matter with her. She
continued, however, 10 ply the COM

THE sHAMROCK'S SAIL.
She Takes Her Fourth Trial Spin and
Shows Up Well.

New York, August. 2S.-The fourth
trial spin Of the Shamrock II in these
waters, sailed today, was not attended
with any exciting incidents. The
yacht did net go outside Sandy Hook
as expected, but sailed from the south
west Spit buoy to Staten island twice
during the four hours she was out,
covering a distance of about thirty
miles. Captain Sycamore headed her
straight for Staten island, giving her a
good sail. The steam yacht Erin. mean
while, had taken on board a number OF
the members of the friendly Sons of
st. Patrick ana she now followed the
Shamrock UP the channel to the north
ward, to the delight of the guests on
board who had their first view Of the
cup challenger through the courtesy
OF Sir Thomas Upton.
The Shamrock covered the first half
of her course in 1 hour, Is minutes,
against a strong tide, and the second
half in just go minutes. This was con-
sidered by the experts to be very good
work, considering the breeze she had.

REVENUE TAX ON DIsPENsARIEs
South Carolina's Contention that Her
Dispensarfes are not Taxable

Washington. August 27.-Franklin
H. Mackey attorney for South Carolina
in the claims COR rebate OF wholesale
and retail liquor licenses, paid by the
South Carolina dispensary, today filed
an additional brief with Mr.. Yerkes. the
commissioner o. internal revenue.
The position taken by Mr. Mackey is
that, independently of the con-
stitutional question In the case, the
revenue laws of the United States have
no application whatever to the dispers-
saries. The 6ispensary system. it il
claimed, is a state institution and being
such is not taxable under the revenue
law. Reference is made TO the section
OF the revenue law under which retail
liquor dealers are taxable and Mr.,
Mackey contends that the supreme
court has held that the word person"
mentioned in the law does not include
state. The dispensaries, he holds
are state institutions and he says the
taxes payable at all, are payable
by the state, which he contends is not
liable to pay such a tax.
Mr.. Mackey further insists that even
If congress had intended to include a.
state within the provisions OF the rev.
enue law such intention would have
been futile, because ever since the days
OF Chief Justice Marshall IL has been
held by the supreme court in repeated
decisions that the federal government
mas no more power to tax a state insti-
ton than the state has to tax an instt-
tuition OF the federal government.

SHAMROCK'S FINE SHOWING
She has a Splendid Sail and Does Mag
nificent Work

New York, August 27.-The Shamrock
II was given a good long spin today
both inside and outside the Hook. She
was tried in windward work and broad
and close reaching. In fact, the chal-
lenger was given everything except a
spinnaker run in breeze that some
times piped up to twelve knots and at
no time was under eight knots. The
good opinion of her speed, merits and
ability to carry lofty canvass was en-
phasized. Many yachting experts who
saw her performance call her a won-
derful boat. All say she is the most
dangerous proposition that has ever
come over the waters hunting for the
Americas cup. She had life in her
every minute. She gathers way with
remarkable rapidity, is quick in stays,
points very high and stands up under
a tremendous spread Of canvass like
the proverbial steeple. With all this
she is very beautiful boat under sail
and taken altogether is a decided i'm
provement over the old Shamrock.
Sir Thomas Upton was on board
during the entire trial and when seen
at Sandy Hook after the race picked
up her moorings seemed much pleased
with her showing.
