CROPS AND PROSPERITY.
Abundant Harvest Stimulates All
Lines of Industry,


Wheat, corn and oats--each one of these
three cereals promises to be a record
breaker this year, according to estimates
made from reports as to the condition
from the August crop statistics Of the
Agricultural Department. The winter
wheat crop has been harvested, and the
estimate of 424,OOO, 900 bushels, If accur-
ate, brings the yield within 1S0OOO,OOO
bushels OF last years entire crop. From
the high average condition reported, the
spring wheat yield may easily pass $780,
10000 bushels. and If so the wheat crop
for 1906 will make a new high record. The
corn crop, from the present prospects,
may reach 2,700O0O.OO0 bushels, and the
oat crop may score round billion OF
bushels. Taken altogether, the prospects
undoubtedly are that this will be the most
phenomenally abundant Of all crop years
which the United States has ever known.
Great crops OF wheat. corn and oats
mean that there will be unusually large
surpluses to sell abroad, and this means
increasing activity during the next y
months for the railroads and the steam
ship lines. In Kansas, Nebraska and Mis-
souri,, and In Southern Illinois and Southern
Indiana, the wheat and corn crops are
both phenomenally large this year, and
this vast mlQdle-West territory Is closer TO
Baltimore by rail than TO any other At
lantic port. Nothing but an unfairly bal
anced dinerential can rob this port Of
transportation advantages which natur-
ally belong here. The eastward move
nent Of wheat should begin shortly, and
the overland freightage OF oats and corn
follow In due order. The Seabord lines
eonne.cting with the interior will probably
need the full complement OF new rolling
stock which has been added to their
equipment during the past twelve months,
for the moving OF the 1905 crops.
Even the prospect Of abundant harvests
sends hope and courage throbbing through
all forms OF multiplied Industries. Not
the railroads and the steamships alone
will be affected by the great crops, but
the manufacturing Industries in all divis-
ions and specifications will take on an
added impulse. The country merchant
will enlarge his stocks, and the wholesale
merchant will widen the sphere. OF his
trade. feeling confident that payments will
be met promptly because the crops are
good. The Industrial fabric OF a great
nation Is a complicated mechanism. but
the agricultural industries constitute the
motive power that Keeps the wheels OF
industrialism turning. Nothing can illus
trate the fact better than does the buoy
ant tone which has been given TO all
forms Of business. merely FROM nns crop

EXAMINING THE FRATERNALs.

The announcement that the Nebraska
insurance department will undertake an
examination of the affairs of the diff
ferent fraternal insurance societies
whose membership extends through this
state suggests several points upon which
the public would like elucidatlon.
While no one has charged that there
is any great amount of rOttenness or
corruption, like that uncovered in the
Equitable, fostering in the fraternals,
but that they have become in their small
way reckless and extravagant is indi-
Gated by many signs. 1t is notorious,
for example, that the biggest, the loud
est and most active of the Hobbies, with
the exception of the railroad lobby, that
have been besieging our legislatures in
successive years is the fraternal insur-
ance lobby.
The officers of the .fraternAl insur-
ance societies doubtless have the right
to protect the interests of the members
and it is their duty to take such pre-
cautionary measures against threaten
ing injuries as circumstances require,
but whether they are justified in spend
ing money belonging to the insured to
promote or impede legislation that af-
fects only the management of the so
ciety and in which the officers them
selves are the only ones concerned, is
open to question.
If the use of the funds belonging to
the policy holders for greasing the
wheels Of legislation and buying influ-
ence of courts through the, subsidizing
of influential lawyers is reprehensible
in the old line insurance companies,
similar proceedings on the part of
fraternals, although in a small way,
would likewise call for condemnation.
If the insurance department has a right
to examine into and exercise a control
over the conduct of the fraternal insur-
ance business, it surely has a right to
veto the expenditure of money raised
by assessment on the members for the
maintenance of a legislative lobby.
If such questionable expenditures
were rejected and the beneficiaries COM
PEELED to put the money back, we would
see no more of the fraternal insurance
lobby of the sort that has been so much
in evidence of late at Lincoln and other
state capitals and the membership of
the fraternals would be gamers instead
of losers.

RUNNING FOR A FALL.
Corporation Defiance Sure to Pro-
woke Drastic Action.
Detroit Free Press.


In his Chautauqua address President
Roosevelt spoke plainly regarding the law
less attitude Of certain corporate interests
and took occasion to emphasize the danger
to which they are needlessly exposing
themselves. Touching upon the obstructive
tactics now employed by those seeking to
thwart justice, he declared that such a
course must eventually lead to the enact
ment of drastic legislation, which, while It
might prove distasteful, would be the nat
ural result OF the stubborn determination
Of some Of the great combinations striving
TO prevent, by every device, legal and ille-
gal, the enforcement of the law as It stands
Carrying the argument further, he pointed
out that many of these men appear to
think the alternative is simply between
submitting to the mild form, of govern
mental control now prevailing and the abso-
rute freedom to do whatever they choose
and added: N'if
'They are greatly IN error. Either they
will have to submit to reasonable super
vision and regulation by the national au.
thorities or else they will ultimately have
to submit to governmental action of a far
more drastic type"
Socialism IN any form possesses little to
commend IL to the conservative mind. The
prospect of any action leading to confsca-
ton Of the property belonging to those who
| now defy all attempts at restraining them
is abhorrent. Government ownership Of
railroads and other quasi-publc corpora
| tions fails to appeal to the one who has
given the subject due consideration. In
| spite Of this fact, It is clear that President
Roosevelt defined the situation accurately
If present practices are to continue. BY
their fragrant disregard OF the law and their
disinclination to accept reasonable regula-
ton on the part OF the government, the
| very men who would be first to decry
socialism are doing more to strengthen that
theory than all other forces combined.
Drastic action is destined to come as a
result OF existing conditions, and instead
of seeking to ward of the blow those whose
| interests are the greatest appear to be
striving to hasten their own downfall.

Unique Cure for Divorce

view 1OTk I1eIdlus
A strange remedy for the divorce evil Is
suggested by Herald correspondent.
He would have the priest or minister who
celebrates marriage require each Of the
parties to sign a contract that he or she
will never sue for a divorce
To be sure, nobody can thus deprive him
self Of his statutory rights, but this diffi-
Guilty our correspondent would get round
by having all the states pass laws legallz-
ing such contracts.
Whether this might not be almost as DIFF
ficult task as to induce them all to enact
uniform divorce laws is an interesting
question. But suppose it could be done.
Where are we to get race OF priests and
ministers with the brazen nerve TO break
In upon a happy bridegroom and blushing
bride with a contract about divorce2

THE orRAN CAMPAIGN.

There is a presidential campaign in
Cuba and according to accounts from
there 1t threatens to develop serious con-
ditions, Indeed, fear is freely expressed
that q revolution may result, SO bitter is
the feeling between the liberal and mod
crate parties. The candidate OF the ill.,
eral party for president is Jose Miguel
Gomez, while the moderates are sup
porting President Palma for reelection.
Gomez, who is now governor of the
province of Vueltas, has taken a de-
cidedly revolutionary position, threaten
ing defiance to even the supreme court
of the republic and doing everything
possible to arouse partisan passion. A
late dispatch describes the situation as
serious.
The breaking out of a revolution in
Cuba at any time would not be aston
ishing. While the people have been ex-
ceedingIy well behaved since the estab-
lishment of the republic, showing a bet
ter regard for law and order than was
generally expected, still partisan feeling
runs high and they are easily aroused
to violent demonstrations. A Cuban
revolution, however, would be short
lived, because the United States would
undoubtedly interpose before it had
made much progress. One of the Plat
amendments, which are incorporated in
the Cuban constitution, binds that re-
public to admit and at all times recog-
nize the right of the United States to
intervene II necessary to preserve for
and in the island a government able to
meet all its internal and external obli-
cations and protect life, property and
individual liberty. Under this our gov
eminent could aid that OF Cuba in put
ting down a revolution and undoubtedly
would do so. 1t Is therefore not prob
able that Gomez and his followers will
go to any such extreme as they now
threaten.

MODERN FINANCE.
Professionals Find In the Game Lots
of easy Money"

of Easy Money"
Jasper in Leslie's weekly
A man was arrested in New York re-
Gently for selling a little machine with
which, apparently blank pieces OF paper
could be readily converted into IS bills
simply by turning a crank and running
the blank sheets through two rollers. The
thing worked ell right as long as Il was
in the hands Of the seller. but when the
purchaser took It home and found that
the paper that he put in between tho
rollers went in as Il came out, II proved
Itself palpable swindle. and the Judge be-
fore whom the case was brought into court
smiled when he so decided. He smiled that
any man should be so utterly credulous as
to believe that he could buy for few hun
dred dollars a machine which would print,
as rapidly as one could want them, bank
notes as good as any bank issues: and my
readers, no doubt, will smile when they
read this brief report Of a true incident in
the recent court annals Of New York City.
But the credulity of the unfortunate vic
tim Of this bunco game is not greater than
that of the general public. l need only
call attention TO the enormous sums Of
money sunk by the public in all kinds OF
wildcat schemes from year 10 year. It
seems only necessary for swindlers to have
hood and to promise prodigious profits on
small Investments, to make the suckers
bite Recently, a man in st. Louis sue
ceeded in coaxing out of the public be-
tween 100000 and 100000 on a COM
bined banking and publishing scheme,
which was so rank that the Postoffice de-
partment finally interfered and stopped his
mail. Scarcely a day passes but that the
postotfice authorities find similar work to
do. Some of these swindles run on for
long time-the Storey Cotton company,
for instance. When the money begins to
pour in the swindlers use a part OF It to
pay big profits to some of those who are
In, and thus stimulate new business. They
did this so successfully in the Storey Cot
ton company that the concern ran on for
number of years.
had repeated inquiries from readers who
asked how it was possible for the Storey
Cotton company to pay from 90 to 100 per
cent interest on deposits. Again and again
4 replied that If there were such profits for
outsiders that the Storey managers could
make they would make 1t themselves, and
that some day the smashup would come.
And 1t did come, and the loss to the credi-
tors Of the Storey company ran up into the
millions. This is a disreputable sort OF
business, but only disreputable, 1t seems, II
1t is done outside OF the exchanges. In
the stock market receptions can be prac.
| ticed, the public can be mlsled by utterly
false statements. and bonds and stocks car
be loated in prodigious quantities at ex-
travagant prices on prospectuses full of
lies, and the men who amass immense for
tunes by these reprehensible methods act

TIE F1EANc1AL SIDE.

The Russian government needs
money. Evidence of this is seen in the
fact that an imperial ukase has been is
sued authorizing a pew internal loan of
S1OOOOOOOO Russia can borrow no
money abroad while the war is in prog
ress and is therefore compelled TO seek
II at home. She will probably be able
to float the new internal loan, but the
ability of her people to supply the gov
eminent with money must be pretty
nearly exhausted. The war eXpendi-
lures are estimated 10 amount to $1,000
600 day, so that the new loan would
meet the demand for only a little over
three months. What will Russia then
do for money II the war should be con-
tlnued2
The French bankers some time ago
decided to loan no more money to the
Russian government for carrying on the
war. The German bankers are under
stood to have reached a like decision.
1t is needless TO say that Russian war
loan could not be negotiated in England
or the United States. The representa-
tive of a great American banking house
was quoted in a dispatch from Ports
mouth a few days ago as saying; Rus
STA can obtain in America all the money
she wants to make peace. but none to
make war. Our position is the position
of the Paris bankers" On the other
hand, the japanese government can Dor
row in London and New York, without
straining her credit, for another three
years at the existing rates and she can
also get more money at home, as shown
in the fact that her last domestic loan
was largely over-subscribed.
All this 1t must be presumed is famil-
lar 60 the Russian government and its
representatives at Portsmouth. NJ.
Witte is understood to have conferred
with leading Paris financieTs before
leaving Europe and it is highly probable
that the financial agent of the Russian
government in this country has con-
suited with American bankers as TO the
chances of getting money here in the
event Of the failure of the peace confer
ence. In regard to the financial side Of
the situation, therefore, Russia is mani
testify at q decided disadvantage and it
is reasonably assumed that this viii ex-
ert a powerful, perhaps a controlling,
influence in determining the final action
Of her ENJOYS. To carry on a great war
requires money and when a nation finds
the money markets of the world closed
against 1t, when on every hand it meets
with refusal to support it in carrying on
hostilities, and when the ability of its
own people to give financial assistance
is about exhausted, the time has come
to make peace. That is the admonition
conveyed in the attitude Of the financial
world toward Russia and it would seem
that power cannot commit so great n
mistake as to disregard it. If she shall
do so the consequences, there is every
reason to believe, will be far more disas-
trous than she has already experienced
and her humiliation very much greater
than IL she submitted to the hardest of
| Japan's demands

The position taken by the county at
torney at Des Moines that the juvenile
court law there is a hindrance rather
than a help in depressing crime, will he
of interest here also, although our Ne
braska juvenile court law has not been
in operation long enough to demonstrate
anything except that it is a rather costly
piece of judicial machinery. AS these
laws are substantially alike in all the
states that have adopted them, defects
that develop in one may be expected
also in the others.

been spent with such unsatisfactory re-

what optimistically Of the great enter
prise and expressed the opinion that it

confidence in such a prediction cannot

improvement in methods from which
better results are to be expected.
