The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1903-08-20

Only tenements and palaces. The very
Ioor, the very rich and the transient
traveller are its sole occupants Those
who do business there and in whom
the home" instinct has not disap-
teared the great middle class, live
up the Hudson, over on Long Island or
out in New Jersey. The Wall street
spirit has driven every home loving
man outside the city's boundaries, and
NJ is left a homeless city devoted to
greed.
Over it hangs the fate Of Rome,
of Egypt and Babylon. All history
bears evidence as to what its future
will be and the effect it's spirit will
have on mankind, unless change
shall come.
But it has seized upon the republl-
can party as an instrument to spread
it's hateful, inhuman spirit all over
this land. If it can do it, then the
same fate awaits the people OF this
country that has followed in the wake
O.. all such movements since the pyra-
mids were built.
Against the advance of the doc
trines that would produce homeless
cities all over this land and reduce
the population to the two classes or
milionares and paupers, the populist
party rises up ready to do battle. In
comparison with the unthinking null
titudes who rush on to condition
where homes and all that makes life
beautiful and happy is trodden under
the feet of heartless accumulators OF
dollars, they are few in number but
every man of them is fighter. Who
ever saw populist who was not ready
and willing to give reason for the
hope that was in him?

There is one redeeming feature
about the independent telephone COM
pany in Lincoln. The stock of the
&C mpany is all owned by residents OF
Lincoln and each stakeholder is as
much interested in good service and
low rates as in dividends. That makes
it somewhat of a cooperative affair
and is perhaps the best thing that can
be done until the people come to their
senses.

The value of vacation to city peo-

The First Toy balloon.

Perhaps in old time days the children
had playthings which nowadays are
quite unknown. There may have been
many toys at which we cnnnot even
guess now. because not even a remnant
is left for us. But, one thing is certain,
and that is that the children now have
the benefit of great many little CON
trivances for their amusement which
Were not known then, although there
may have been other ones to take their
places. For example, there is the toy
balloon which is SO much enjoyed by
the little tot of two or three who has
never seen anything like 1t and who
cannot understand why the gay little
colored ball should float in the air with
out apparently anything to keep 1t up.

JOINT BALL TEAM
HAS BEEN PROPOSED
If Barre ard Montpelier Enter Base
Ball League They VIII Probably
Unite In the Project.

S. L. MeIntiTe Of Rutland has been in
this vicinity looking over the situation and
creating an interest ia a proposed base
bah league, iii which Barre and Moutpel-
ier should be represented. He stated that
the league Is practically assured so far as
Rutland, Burlington, Fair Haven, ST. All
bans and Plattsbnrg are concerned IN or
der to complete the circuit an effort will
be made to form teams il Barre and Mont
pelier or a joint team for both.
Hector a. Dubuc Of Montpelier said
yesterday that the matter Of BARRE Mont
pelier team woul rest largely with the ell
eetric railroad He thought II the rail.
road was disposed to help the matter
along there would be no doubt that the
two cities wonid be represented IN the
league next year, The proposal is to have
the grounds between the two cities.
Mr.. McIntire stated that the league
would be conducted on business princi-
pies. Restrictions would be made regard
ing salaries SO that good base ball might
be played at reasonable expense. He be-
Iieves the salaries should not exceed $500
a month. Mr.. McIntire said It was im-
possible to play s2 minute base bah IN
this section at a profit, but 's3 minute
base ball would give just as much satis-
faction and could be made to pay. He
did not think Barre and Montpelier could
support a separate team and that so far Is
the state league was concerned to have
one team represent both municipalities.
