Three Games Out Of Four.

School base ball nine won its third
out OF four games last Saturday ON
the fair grounds in this city, by de-
feating the Monroe Highs to the tune

Cvitz, the home pitcher, had too

excellent work with his left member
for seven innings and half, when
he began to weaken, owing to his not
having had sufficient training. Ovitz
then Wen: in and white washed the
visitors for the remainder OF play.
The cause Of the victory was the
superiority of the home team over
their rivals in every department;
they flelded flies and grounders much
better, and, although some Of the
Monroe men looked as II they could
WELD wagon tongue quite AS easily
as they could a ',slugger," they were
also out classed with the stick.

A NOBLE LIFE WORK.

Mr., J. Sterling Morton never achiev-
ed any very great success in politics,
though he filed the office Of secretary
of agriculture in President Cleveland's s
cabinet with distinguished ability and
success.
Very few politicians. however, have
been of as much service to their states
aod the country at iarge as Was Mr..
Morton. He was the founder of Arbor
Day and that fact entities him to be
remembered with gratitude by the
people Of the United States, especially
those of Nebraska.
II may be said without the slightest
exaggeratiou that he did more than
any other man for the development of
that state. He taught its people the
immense possible benefits OF planting
trees and taking care Of them.
The millions OF trees that have been
planted in Nebraska since ]. Sterling
Morton began 10 preach the gospel OF
arborculture have reyolutionized the
climate and material conditions of
that state.
BY adopting and industTiously pui-
suing the policy advocated by this man
vast tracts Of land have been trans
formed from desert wastes into fruit
flll fields
II Nebraska does not build monu-
ment to this great benefactor she will
stand convicted OF gross ingratitude.
Arbor Day. which ], Sterling Nor
ton instituted is now observed in al.
most every state Of the union and by
millions OF people every year Its i'm
portance and the duty OF observing It
are part Of the common school educa-
tion Of the country.
Thirty years ago Mr.. Morton offered
a resolution in the Nebraska state
board OF agriculture. which it adopted
that "the tenth day OF April be and
the same hereoy is set ap1rt and con
secrated for tree planting IN Nebras-

We endorse the separate school law

system without federal interference;
and although we favor equal educa-

and adequate representation in the

to promote in every way the applica-

the settling of party principle and we
avor the passage of a suitable prim-
