Referring to the collection and disposal
of city refuse the report says:
There was an increase of 1862 tons 5S
pounds in the quantity of garbage collected
during 1868 as compared with the previous
year. due to the growth of the city.
The contract price for the collection and
disposal of garbage and dead animals is
$4,000 per annum and there is a pro-
vision in the contract that a rebate of 80
cents per ton on all garbage over %. 900

It seems that the above will state
the situation. If Smoot is Norman

he cannot be preveted from taking
his seat, but if evidence can be
found that he is a polygamist he
should and will be excluded from
the Senate.

Orange City Herald: The month

visit and it is we'll that the previous
characters of the visitor be the SUBJ

alton of the calendar will show
that March is really a sort of half

As such it has been grossly abused.
Just because the sun shows has
genial face only about one-half of
the days of March affords no good
reason for the indiscrimate abuse
heaped upon deserving and worthy
head. The sun has no business shin

an end of our cherry blossoms
which would be caught by the frost.
The real business of the month ia
to see that the SHOWS are melted
and carried down little streams to

twill be regrettable if the popular
agitation incident to the coal famine
of the past winter does not result in
something of permanent good to
consumers, either from more
humane consideration at the hands
of those who control the source of
hard coal supply or from the creation
of opportunities to purchase Salts
factory substitutes. There ought to
be some result from tho thorough
exploitation Of peat and Ignite
possibilities, as the opportunities here
are broader and more promising
than those abroad, where artificial
fuel enterprises are flourishing.
In Germany two kinds of briquettes
are manufactured, -household bli-
quettes made from Ignite, which
constitute the chief household fuel
of Berlin and other German cities,
and industrial briquettes, made Of
soft coal slack and a binder of
mineral pitch, which are used in
locomotives and under stream boiler
generally for smelling, and other
industrial heating. Consult General
Mason states that briquettes are
cheaper, ton for ton, in Berlin, than
anthracite or good biJuminous coal.
There are in the Empire 439 Ignite
mines, 1S1 of which have from one
to six briquette factories with from
one to ten presses.
Although there ought to be room in
the United States for the utilization
of soft coal slack by mixing with
pitch, the artificial fuel of most
interest to people of the American
Northwest is the Ignite briquette,
which is manufactured successfully
in Germany. Somebody ought to
be able to establish profitable
business in Dakota and Montana,
where there are vast deposit of

A committee representing the
association of ministers and citizens
which recently protested against the
seating of Senator Elect Smoot has
sent communication to Mr. Burrows
chairman of the Senate committee
on privileges and elections, deprecat-
ing the charges of polygamy filed by
another body opposed to smoot.
The point made is that such charges
tend to obscure the real issue of the
contest.
This is not quite clear to the in
terested but impartial bystander.
If Mr.. Smoot has contracted a
polygamous marriage the fact is not
material but overshadowing. It
will necessarily supercede evry other
''issue.' The letter, then, is AN
admission that there is no founda-
tin for the charge of polygamy.
What are the other grounds urged
upon the Senate as justifying or
demanding the rejection of Utah's
Senator elect9 A member of the
protesting association is quoted as
saying: 1.-THE principle for which
we are fighting is that as an apostle
in the Mormon church Mr.. Smoot
has no right in the United States
Senate.''
If this is the tissue" the association
desires to press it as wasting its
energy. The Constitution of the
United States disposes of the matter.
As the Idaho assembly says in the
telegram it has unanimously ordered
to be sent to Mr.. Smoot, the opposi.
ton to his religious belief there
fore, to his apostleship is contrary
to the American spirit demanding
separation of church and state and
contemplates violation of section 8,
article 6, of the Constitution of the
United States. l

lis being alleged and supported
quite strongly that Representative
Wilson's bill, making saloon keepers
liable for damage is bill wholly
in favor Of the saloon keeper. The
Advance stands Just where it has
for several years, in favor of tenn
perance and prohibition, and believes
we are consistent in saying that the
bill is a step in good temperance
legislation. In making the lio uor
dealer liable for damage it will re-
quire them to be more cautious to
what extent they sell liquor, this
part of the bill all are agreed OH,
but the provision that the saloon
man must be notified in writing
appears to some to be barrier
against liability. It is to some
degree. To verbally give notice, has
very little weight in any court and
the exceptions are rare. therefore,
there must be some recognized
notice in order to use as evidence
in case of suit, and If an action is. to
be brought for damages there is only
one recognized form, proper legal
action. Some want a law holding
liquor dealers liable for damage
committed by person while under
the influence Of liquor, but suppose
man wanted to vent his spite on
certain person. or saloon man he
could take one drink of whiskey,
perform his unlawful act and throw
the responsibility on the saloon man,
claiming the act was committed
while intoxicated, would this be
consistent. Another Gaze; suppose
a habitual drunkard went to an
adjacent town, procured liquor, re-
turned to his place of abode and.
committed an unlawful act. Taking
away the provision would make the
saloon keeper liable for damage.
Many illustrations might be given.
When the authorities accept. the
license fee, the saloon men are
entitled to some protection. If the
granting of a license Is prohibited
then the situation is changed. All
criminals are given certain protec-
lions by the laws. Mr.. Wilson's bill

New York Sun: It is pleasure to
learn from our esteemed Nebraska
contemporary, the Lincoln Star
that Col. William Jennings Bryan
has joined the Southern Lancaster
County Farmer association. At q
meeting Of the association in Normal
the other day Col. Bryan took part
in the discussion of the topic. How
Shall We Care for Our Hens in
Winter to Obtain the Best resultss"
We have not yet had the happiness
of seeing a full report of Col. Bryan's
views on this fascinating subject,
but we have no doubt that they
were sound and kind, and in every
way worthy of the reputation Of
their distinguished author as a
gentleman, a warrior, a farmer. 9
friend of man and hens. For some
seven years Col. Bryan has given
much speech to the care of the
producing classes. )" In their modest
and unobtrusive way, hens have an
honorable place among the pro-
ducing classes. The care of these
industrious producers in the winter
months, which are SO trying to the
delicate gallinaceus constitution,
may we'll engage the best labors of
a student of the producing classes.
Col. Bryan's long brooding and
cackling over the state of thu country
and the democratic party are now
to cease, we hope. After all, the
country and the democratic party
can take care of themselves. Those
sensitive nervous and finely organ
lied creatures, our hens, need the
most constant attention IN the
winter in order to enable them to
produce the best results. Col. Bryan
has found a field where he can be
truly useful. There are at least six
teen persons to care for our country
where there is one person to care fo1
our hens.
