aurlinaton Roads Crop Report.

Omaha, Sept. 1S.-The Burlington
roads crop report shows that several
hot days, with high south winds helped
greatly in maturing the corn, while sew
eral cool days and nights with more or
less rain, have prevented rapid pro-
gress. The moisture has the effect OF
keeping the corn green and growing.
SO that on the whole the conditions
have been only moderately favorable.
In western parts of Nebraska and
Kansas somewhere near one-half OF
the crop is beyond danger OF frost. In
the eastern part of Kansas and Ne
braska corn is still growing and green,
as a rule, and smaller proportion is
entirely safe from killing frosts.

The city election Tuesday on
the question of saloon license
fully settles the question of the
sentiment of the public of Broken
Bow on the whiskey traffic. This
is the fifth time in five years
that the majority has expressed
themselves against saloon license.
This time the majority of los on
light vote polled proves that
the experience Of the past has
gained favor with the voters and
taxpayers. 1t speaks volumes
for the moral sentiment of our
city. 1t says to the parents of
the country that you can send
your boys to Broken Bow Schools
and College without danger of
their falling victims to the
drink habit by the temptation of
an open saloon. Houses of i'll
fame or dissolute characters are
not permitted. Our churches
are we'll attended and attractions
of an elevating and moral nature
are provided for all who are thus
inclined. 1t is an ideal town for
a Business College or a State
Normal. Parents who desire to
locate in city where they can
educate their children without
subjecting to the temptations of
evil that GO with a saloon town,
can not do better than to come
to Broken Bow. That class of
citizens will find warm welcome
and congenial society.

LEGISLATIVE NEWS.
Especial corret pondencs.l

Lincol, Neb., April +, 1908.
The most important event of
the past week in the Legislature
was the completion and signing
of the new revenue bill, which is
now a law, and which will take
effect on the first of next October.
The bill when it reached the
Governors hands was carefully
compared to see that no trickery
had been employed after its pas
sage, and the next day the
governor attached his signature.
The governor believes that under
the provisions of the new bill the
total valuation of the state will
reach $500, 900, 900, at the one
fifth valuation, as compared with
the $3.50, 100000. If this is the
case it will necessitate much
lower levies all along the line.
Some are more conservative in
their figures than the governor
but none are lower than $780,
100000.
The House came to happy
conclusion on the vexed question
of sugar bounty claims. After
a long discussion as to whether
or not the claims ought to be
paid an agreement was reached
to confer jurisdiction on the dis
trict court to try the case on it's
merits. In case the sugar people
prove the justice of their claim,
and the court renders Judgment
against the state. the next legis-
lature will have nothing to dc
but pay the judgment, the matter
being thus Invested of all politi-
cal features. The amount of the
claim. as presented to the legis'
lature, was about SAT, 900.
One of the bills which went tc
its death few days before the
close was the Burgess printing
BILL" which was attempted to b.
pushed through as a piece o.
factional spite work. Very few
of the country publishers of thu
state favored it, and in fact mos

Tuesday was the fifth time in
succession that Broken Bow has
voted against saloon license.
The majority out of 27s votes
cast is los. Had the full vote of
the city been polled there is no
doubt but the majority would
have been correspondingly in
creased.

days election was the vote on

were for saloon license were
against billiards and the bowling

this? If so, what?

1t is noticeable that in all dis
Cussions and voters on the queS-

the fusionssts advocate the most
lavish expenditures. This is in

Those who delay seeding for the

former validity.
Il the first proclamation the king
says the senate and the skupschtina

proved impracticable. Furthermore

Jersey City Will Not Permit GIorifica-

Jersey City, N. j., April 7.-Prosecu-
tor Speer in reply to a request from
Chief of Police Murphy for an official
opinion as to the latter's power to stop
theatrical performances tending to glo-
rify criminals, says:
IF the performance is designed and
has clear tendency to elevate vice
and degrade virtue, and to furnish
glittering and attractive enticement to
youth to enter upon a career of vice
and crime, it is corruptive of public
morals and indictable as a public nuis-
ance. Plays which shock the public
sense of decency and incite to crime
are indictabe at common law and un-
der New Jersey statutes"
Plays founded upon the Biddle broth
ers' case and the exploits of the Ore
gon outlaw Tracy were the cause of
the chiefs action. He says that af-
ter this week theatrical managers who
present such pieces will be prosecuted.
