More Gold :han Ever Before.

Washington, September S.-The sum

exceeds that of n previous time in the

world. The single reported exception is
that of Russia, about eight years ago,
when that country was preparing to

FUTURE OF CO-EDUCATION.

We are very much inclined to doubt
the existence of any substantial grounds
for the apprehension expressed by Pres
ident James of Northwestern university
that a serious crisis is at hand In the
movement for co-educational instruction
in our institutions of higher learning.
Co-education has secured it's firmest
foothOld and has advanced farthest in
the state universities maintained by our
western commemorative as the cap
stone Of the free public school system.
AS q public institution supported out Of
the proceeds of general taxation, our
state universities could not consistently
draw a line between the sexes without
destroying the very foundations Of
equality upon which they have been
erected. The fact that the older and
privately endowed universities Of the
east which were under no obligations to
admit women have practically all of
them thrown the doors wide open in
nearly every department is proof posi-
tive that the crisis f~oreshadowed
does not affect the principle of CO.
education, but rather the regulation or
repression of certain disputed features
that have of late become more pro-
nounced.
That co-educational institutions re-
quire closer and more careful super
vision of the student body and more
strict control Of student life outside as
well as inside the lecture room and la.
boratOry than those devoted either to
young men or young women by them
selves has been recognized from the
first, although, perhaps, the necessity
has not been met as fully as 1t should
be. From natural reasons which have
excluded the one sex from that class of
college athletics in which most public
interest centers the recreation side of
the young women students has not been
developed as strongly as that of the
young men and this defect must be
made good by expansion in other direc-
tons. The rapid growth, however, Of
a distinctly college spirit among the
young women as well as among the
young men is doing more TO round out
student life in the co-educational uni
versities than any other agency.
At all events, one thing we may rest
assured of-whatever new departures
may be grated on co-education, the sys-
TEN is here to stay and WIN go forward
instead of backward.

the republican newspapers Of the state In
a darned unpleasant situation, a position
the press hopes to be released Of next fall.
Harrington Herald: Thus far It appears
that there is not to be a scarcity OF good
material from which to select a congress
sional nominee at the coming congress
sional convention. Cedar county will pre-
sent the name OF J. r. Jenal, Dixon county
will come forward with ]. ]. Mccarthy.
George A, Brooks Of Knox, Judge Boyd Of
Antelope, Mr.. Vail of Boone, DR.. Hanson
Of Platte are avowed candidates. There
are also others who have not announced
themselves. The friends OF z. A. wiltse Of
Thurston county and Of William M. War
ner of Dakota will have an eye out for an
opportunity to secure the nomination for
their favorites. These gentlemen, though
not avowed candidates, are too loyal to
their party and state to refuse to accept
should the convention single either out for
the honor.
Albion News: The News is authorized to
say that Hon. II. c. Vail OF this city is a
candidate for congress, subject to the best
judgment Of the republican congressional
convention. II a mans tastes run that
way, 1t is legitimate, proper and honorable
for any American citizen to aspire to a seat
in the nations congress-. Mr.. Vail is de-
sirous Of the nomination only upon the
condition that the convention shall deem
him the best and strongest man to make
the race. He does not propose to spend
any great amount Of time in the pre-con-
vention canvass. He has the assurance OF
considerable support outside Of his W
county. which has caused him to decide to
become a candidate. Mr.. Vail stands we'll
at home and there will be no objection to
giving him the solid delegation from here.
Among all the names mentioned for the
place, Mr.. Vail is fully equal to any Of
them in point Of ability. He has always
been a consistent republican, and stands
for the better lements Of the party. Should
he receive the nomination he will make an
active and effective canvass OF the district.

THE s0nrR oMAAA CAMPAIGN.

The South Omaha municipal cam
paign has developed a wide field for
professional demagogues and impudent
liars. For example, Lawyer Ed p.
Smith, who is employed by Tom Denni-
son, has had the audacity to charge that
Koutsky, the republican candidate for
mayor, is a tool of Dennison and the
corrupt Omaha machine. Mr.. Kelly, a
brother of Mayor Kelly, in addressing
a democratic meeting, declared:
I come before you as a republican and a
supporter Of the regular nominees Of the
city democratic ticket. ! am not a
politician and have nothing to fear in ex-
pressing my views. l believe home talent
can serve the people Of South Omaha better
than any other. Also believe they are
quite we'll qualified to run their own city,
affairs. We do not want the aid OF Mr..
e. Rosewater of Omaha. 1t is said that Mr..
Frank Koutsky makes frequent calls to see
him for some reason. Every one knows
that II cannot be to the best interests OF
our good city. We are told that Mr..
Rosewater has already contributed 5000
in the interest of Mr.. Koutsky's nominal
tion and election. What does this mean?
Through what agency shall this money get
back to the original owner. honest Frank
Koutsky, or his agent. OF course?
And, more Of such Pharlsee gable.
If any South Omaha democrat Is gull
Hble enough to swallow the preposter-
Gus story that Rosewater, or anybody
else in Omaha. would contribute thou
sands of dollars to assist Koutsky in
defeating Kelly at the primaries ne
ought to be confined in the asylum for
the feeble-minded for the rest OF his
life. The thing that peat Mayor Kelly
at the primaries was not Omaha money
nor South Omaha money. Everybody
knows that Mayor Kelly defeated him
feited the confidence of the republicans
OF South Omaha, who registered their
protest through the ballot box by about
three to one.
If this man Kelly had told the truth
he would have said that he has turned
this political handspring because his
brother was defeated in the late pri-
mary. IL he had exercised his memory
he might also have remembered that his
conscience was not shocked two years
ago. when Rosewater was induced to
go TO South Omaha to make speeches
on behalf OF the republican ticket
headed by his brother. Two years ago
he did not dread the Omaha machine
and did not sound the fire alarm bell
over the danger of annexation of South
| Omaha with Omaha.
1t is in accord with the eternal fitness
