wATTERsoN TURNS ON CRITIC.
Editor Pays Tribute to Merits of Sue
cessfuI Newspaper Men.

Louisville, Dec. 5.-In an editorial re-
plying to a criticism in a southern pa
per charging him with practicing all
the evils of which he accused the 400,
Henry Watterson declares that his for
ty years services to his party and pro-
fession should exempt him from the
charge of either levity or vacillation In
answer to the statement that no editor
can gain the ear of the country unless
he is brilliant at the expense of safety
and truth, Mr.. Watterson says:
'.From James Gordon Bennett the ell
der to Joseph Pulitzer and Whitelaw
Reid, no man has risen by his own la
bors to the head of a great newspaper
and held his place there, who along the
journey did not illustrate the exact OPP
posites of the traits above set forth so
flippantly. In point of character and
intellect, equipment and working pow
er, each of them was and needs must
have been the peer of his contemporar-
les in the arenas of politics and busi-
ness, holding in the community where
he lived an unimpeached place in the
local autonomy from start to finish and
building his fabric upon the essential
bases of good sense and good feeling,
sincerity, conviction and truth"

Many American parents can learn a
most valuable lesson from the German
and Scandinavian people who come to
this country. These people believe that
it is a part of boys and girls educa-
ton to learn how to work, and from
the time that their children are old
enough they are given employment of
some kind suited to their strength. The
result is that the children are kept out
of world of temptation and mean
ness and become our most valuable
workers and citizens.

COAL SCARCE IN NEBRASKA.
Sudden Cold Snap Source of Much Suf-
ferinq.


Omaha, Dec. 5.-The sudden cold
snap, accompanied by a heavy fall of
snow for this season, has caused intense
suffering not only among the poorer
classes of the city and state, but among
those who are fairly we'll off financially.
The coal dealers have been swamped
with orders yesterday and today, and
have found themselves unable to fill
even small share of them. These or
ders came, of course, from the Well paid
classes. The poorer people, who have
not been able to pay the high prices de-
manded for coal, are absolutely without
fuel, and appeals to the charitable or-
CARNATIONS bring slight relief, owing to
the inability to make deliveries. Half
the day was lost yesterday having
horses shod and today every available
team has been pressed into service. No
anthracite coal is to be had, but there
is a plentiful supply of soft coal, ran
ging in price from $3.50 to $3.50, but de-
liveries can not be made. One of the
Omaha public schools was compelled
to close yesterday for lack of coal. Re-
ports from over the state say that many
schools have been closed for a similar
reason.
In the cattle districts of the western
portion it is said that a heavy loss will
be experienced. because the cattle have
not yet been furnished shelter, the
weather previously having been SO
moderate as to warrant belief in its
continuance for some time longer. The
county buildings at Omaha are being
supplied temporarily with soft coal as
the contractors have not yet been able
to furnish anthracite for the county.
There We're pitiful scenes about the
associated charities today, when MEM
bers of poor families appealed in vain
for coal to keep them and thier children
warm. While the number is much less
than in previous years, the demand for
assistance is still large Other neces-
saries are supplied without stint, but
fuel can be given only in small quanti-
ties. The charitable people look for
ward to continued cold weather with
much concern.
