A MONUMENT TO MORTON.

The monument unwilling in Ne
braska City on Arbor Day of J. Ster
ling Morton, was a fitting recognition
to one of the ablest and purest public
men that ever lived. He was man
of abundant brains and honesty TO
match and years ago the writer was
associated with him on the Nebraska
City News.
Memory carries us back to those
days which will ever be golden in
our recolleetions. NO one could asso-
ciate with such a lovable characte-
without feeling better for it and it is
with pleasure beyond expression that
we read the eulogy pronounced upon
his life and character by Grover Cleve-
land and know that at last Nebraska
has recognized the memory Of one
of the grandest men and minds within
its borders.
The Inauguration of Arbor Day will
ever keep his memroy green but no
more so than his good deeds and ster.
ling qualities.

More Divorce Ethics

Out III California last November a
woman secured a divorce. In order
to do this all that is necessary there
Is for a woman to have a husband, a
desire to get rid OF him, and q lawyer
TO prefer her request at court Ac-
provided and ignored, she then has
the privilege of being toted to the
altar again after the lapse of six
months. Such rigid attention is paid
to this that it is seldom the divorced

The rumor having been circulated
that this Iair Divorce had picked out
No. 2, No / Immediately declared a
shotgun quarantine on Cupid and
swore great oaths that the wedding
would be followed by a funeral in
which the groom would be the CEN
trail figure. OF course, such conduct
tended to put Jumps in the path over
which true love was travelling, and the
procession limped a little, and came
to halt.
Concerning this one may ask why
when a man ceases to be a husband
he assumes the attitude of a dog in
the manager. If the aspirant for the
hand and what is left Of the heart OF
beauty, has the right stuff in him he
will seek out the truculent ex-hus-
band and get the drop on him. After
that there will be opportunity foi

Exalting the Ianoble

According to a custom that seems
implaeabIe in its demands, each SEN
ator who dies is extoIled il public
session. Had this custom not been
abused it would be wholly com
mendabIe. OF the worst man some
good may be said, and no objection
arises when this is said, and the Ill
forgotten. However, discretion should
set limit. When the ford orator
exalts himself to yociferous en-
thusiasm where a finer tribute would
be silence, he excites an emotion that
is painfully near disgust
There died a few months ago a
Senator who in person possessed some
attributes that endeared him to a
circle OF friends. He had been in
public life for many years, and his
whole career there was a scandal. He
was the engineer of the most corrupt
political machine In existence. The
moral tone of the politics he lived
and taught was Low beyond all ex-
preston. Owing more than anythi lg
else to his sinister influence there
was the shadow OF CRIME like a pail
over the whole State where he was
ruler. To hold Office there was to be
known as a creature or his. To be
this was to be bereft Of reputation.
The man was powerful because of
the ability to direct the forces of evil.
II he had a knowledge of justice in
the abstract. he did not use it. If fs
knew what honesty was, he did not
practice it. His record was all dark
and repeIlent. Like an Old Man Is
the Sea. he weighted Common wealth
In his family relations he was kind
and affectionate. This his enemies
would have acknowledged, and more
his friends ought not TO have pre-
sumed TO say.
Yet Senator Plat Of New York dar-
ed to point to this personality as an
Inspiration for young men! Could

The example he set was one for self
respect to avoid, and the lesson Oh
his life was that so-calIed success
may be a crown Of shame.

Decorate Your House.

The flags which hang today over
front doors in all sections of the city
indicate that the householders of the
Capital can contribute more largely
than anyone else to give Washington
a gala air on days of national i'm
portance. All the flags which could
be hung from the Government build
ings, all the structures which could
be set up along the main business
streets, could not arouse the interest
or touch the emotions as do the flags,
many Of them small, which bespeak
the spirit of this holiday in the quiet
est streets.
Is there not a lesson in this for
Washington to ponder on as it makes
ready for the Inauguration? No other
event in the regular course of the ma
ton focuses so much interest on the
Capital as the installation Of tue
President, brings SO many visitors
or signifies SO much. In the light of
these considerations surely the peo-
pie of Washington will not fail to
give their city as much the air of a
general observance of inauguration
day as thsy possibly can give it.
A flag, large or small, hung over
each door step would work wonders.
A flag at every front door and other
decorations wherever the household
er's means would permit would i'm
press visitors more than miles OF
grandstands or thousands of march
ing soldiers.
The inaugural ceremonies do not
tax the average citizen of the Capital
severely. Although the National
Government does not contribute tc
defray the expenses, the ceremonies
practically pay for themselves. What
q little thing it is to ask, then, that
the people OF the Capital shall indi-
cate their interest in this inexpensive
but effective manner? And The Times
is satisfied the request viii be gen.
erously fulfilled.
