American harvester companies who
have been supplying Argentine with
machines have discovered that extra
parts Of machines for repairs could be
shipped into that country free, while
II tariff of 25 per cent was levied on
completed harvesters, The manufac-
turers proceeded to take advantage Of
this and shipped In extra parts in
sufficient quantities to set up numer-
ous complete machines. Argentine
officials discovered the cheat and now
the machinery exporters are asking
this country to protect against the
new law levying duty on all extra
parts except when they come with a
complete machine. or course the gov
ernment cannot afford to protect these
exporters in their dishonesty.

Col Henry Watterson in a recent
address said I'VE should strip the
democratic party of all surplusage and
hold 1t ready for the fray" The chief
charm in this euphonius bit OF advice
Is the doubt he leaves the reader In
as to whether It Is the democracy or
the surplusage that is to be held for
the fray. Probably they will endeavor
to use the one they think will cast the
most votes. What does Col. Waiter
son mean by surplusage anyway? If
he refers to the radical element, the
Bryanites, Hearstites and other ties
too numerous to mention, he is quite
likely to find that they will have some
thing to say about being stripped from
the party, and when 1t comes to the
convention "show down" Col. Waiter
son is likely to find that his surplusage
is the democratic party.

Chancellor Andrews is being crit
icsed for his speech in which he said
that all rich men are not bad. In the
present state Of the public mind 1t is
almost criminal for person to have
any opinions-what he should do to
be popular is to fall right in with
every idea proposed which in any way
leans toward tearing down of the
established institutions of the land.
If the present fetish continues we will
all be anarchists inside a few years.
But 1t won't continue. People may be
stampeded for time by the advance
ment of new ism, but they will soon
see its folly, and will come back to
a common sense basis again. Men
like Chancellor Andrews, who believe
that rich men have some rights as
well as poor men, will instill the doc,
trine of fairness into the minds of
people until they will see that every
person should be placed on the plane
of equality, whether he be rich OF
poor

TELEGRAPHERs GET RAISE.
Operators on Chicago and Northwest
ern Will Receive Hiqher WAGES.

Operators on Chicago and Northwest
ern Will Receive Higher Wages.
Sioux City Tribune: The telegra-
piers of the Northwestern railroad sys-
TEN have received news of substan-
tial increase in wages. The committee
representing the Order of Railway
Telegraphers of the Chicago and
Northwestern railway system, the
members of which have been holding
daily conferences with the officials the
past month regarding a new schedule,
have finished their labors and a meet
ing of the committee with the operat-
ors of the Galena division and of the
Peoria line was held in Sterling. ILL.,
A draft of the new schedule was
read. It provides for a substantial in
crease in wages over each division of
the entire system, graded according to
the different offices. The committee
as well as the individual employees, is
well pleased with the treatment re-
ceived at the hands of the company Of
ficials. The raise in wages follows
similar wage increase granted about
a year ago. The Northwestern COM
pany does not propose to neglect the
men holding the responsible position
of train dispatcher and operator, along
its lines and the increase in wages
about to be granted will make the pay
OF the Northwestern key men equal
to that on any road in the middle west.

Columns OF newspaper space have
been given over to the exploitation of
the dire disaster and woe resulting
from the scourge of yellow fever. But
as matter of fact typhoid is a far
greater menace to the health of the
nation, and yet less effort is made to
stamp 1t out. When the country gets
as much concerned over this disease
which in every northern city every
autumn claims scores of victims-as
it has over it's southern and less dead
ly rival, great progress will have been
made in the care of the race and the
health statistics will show a notable
Improvement in the average longevity
of life. Northern cities should eXer-
else the greatest care in matters of
sanitation as preventive to typhus,
Norfolk may not have a scourge of ty-
phoid fever this year but it will come
some time-perhaps next year or the
neXt-unless something is done to re-
lieve the soil upon which the city
stands Of its pollution.

President Roosevelt's success in
bringing about peace between Japan
and Russia has encouraged him to
hope that the next peace conference
will result in an agreement of such
detail as will radically minimize the
danger of future conflicts. Much may
be done to avert future complications,
but in looking back over the wars in
which the United States has engaged
it hardly seems possible that any inter-
national conflict in which our coun-
try has been involved could have been
averted by the kindly offices of neu-
trail powers. The causes have invar-
iably been fundamental. Yet there is
much to be gained by the presidents
commendabe activity. Any plan
which brings nations of differing aims
and traditions into earnest conference
is calculated to promote a better un-
derstanding and thereby peace

nearly year after so-called work has

The people of the United States are
only beginning to realize dimly the
vast agricultural wealth which lies
dormant in the enormous area of arid
lands in the west, which at the pres
ent time raise nothing more valuable
than sage brush and cactus. The ag-
ricultural department is pushing the
reclamation of this semi.desert tract
with great vigor. Irrigation is being
supplied as fast as possible and in
sections where some rain falls but not
enough OF insure the success of ordi-
nary crops, new species of grain are
being sought out which are capable
of resisting drouth. One of the most
valuable of these is the recently dis.
covered marconi or durum wheat
which is capable OF being grown over
a tract of land as large as the state of
Texas, which is now given over to
sage brush and cactus Marconi wheat
will grow with ten inches of rainfall
and yield fifteen bushels of grain to
the acre where ordinary grain is a
failure. Frederick V, Colville, the
chief bOtanist of the Agricultural de-
partment predicts that through a bet.
ter knowledge of the growth of vege-
tation suited to resist drouth, farms
will be opened up on millions OF acres
of arid lands now considered worth
less for agricultural purposes.

WHAT MAKES A DEAD TOWN

A gentleman in the city yesterday
from Fullerton tells a story that fur
nishes an example of what may be
done to a town under certain condi.
tions. The gentleman referred to has
been a resident of that town for more
than twenty years and is fully on the
inside of what transpires there. In
the early days of the town and up to
few years ago, it was the hope and
ambition of people who live there that
Il would some day become a thriving
western city. 1t is splendidly located
to make a town of more than ordinary
importance. 1t is the county seat of
Nance county, has an opportunity OF
draw trade from one of the richest
districts in Nebraska, has an abun-
dance of water power to operate a
number of manufacturing plants-but.
says the resident, the town is dead.
Nature has done much for the town but
the people have killed it, Its downfall
was started a few years ago when
there commenced TO be dissention
among the citizens of the place.
Every little trouble between business
men became public property, people
took sides and the merits Of each
quarrel were tried on the street cor

phere which European representatives

capitals as a diplomatic center. The

ners, with the result that factions
were formed, and then factions within
factions, until there is no unity of &C.
tion along any line and nothing can
be done, nothing can be even proposed
that It Is not Immediately opposed by
those who belong to other factions
than the one to which the man who
advanced the idea belongs. 1t has now
come to the point that no one offers
a suggestion for the betterment of the
town, because It Is known that there
are enough "antis" to every individual
to kill any measure proposed, no mat
ter how meritorious.
1t is a bad condition for town to
get into. It not only means the stop
page of all progress in the growth of
the city, but it means i'll will and hard
feelings among the people, which can
never be fully eradicated. The object
of telling this story is to point out to
Norfolk the way that we are drifting.
We are rapidly reaching the point
where every proposition that is sug-
gested Is Immediately jumped on by
small coterie of knockers" who are
putting forth every effort to increase
their numbers, and who insist that
unless the ideas suggested by them
prevail nothing good can come of any
movement. If these people were really
and at heart interested in the welfare
of the town, when an idea Is proposed
which has for its object the upbuilding
of the city, they would give 1t support
even If 1t does not coincide with the
method that they think should be en-
ployed. When the city commenced
work on the Corporation gulch trou-
BILE, The News did not think the right
method was being pursued, believing
that a solution of the problem was in
carrying the water down Fourteenth
street instead of Thirteenth, but it did
not commence to "knock"-on the con-
trary it commended the council for
making an honest effort toward reliev-
ing the situation. The last flood dem.
onstrated that the council were well
informed when they planned the work
as they did, as the relief promised
was given.
What does it matter about the meth
DDS employed, just so they are honor
able and secure the desired end? It
is fair to give every person who has
an idea an opportunity to develop it
it is even better to assist him, and
then If he has not shown that his plan
will do what he claims for it, it would
be time to suggest remedy.
The time was not so very many
years ago that there was the utmost
harmony in Norfolk, and any proposi-
tion that was made that seemed good
for the town received the unanimous
support Of everyone. Let us quit
drifting away from that condition of
harmony, let us pull together when the
good of the town is at stake, let us not
"knock" until we know that the plan
proposed will not do what is claimed
for it. Above all. let us not get into
the condition that Fullerton is.

WEDS HIS RIVAL.

With Another.


With Another.
His hopes Of bliss dashed to earth
and his faith in womankind seriously
shaken, Fritz Schultz returned yester-
day from Ellis island, where he had
reason to believe his sweetheart,
Frieda Luhrs, was anxiously awaiting
his coming, says New York dispatch.
She was there, he found on his ar
rival, and was anxious because of the
fact that, although the savings of Fritz
had been spent for her passage money,
she arrived as Frau August Wagner,
and Herr Wagner was with her. Fritz
at once recognized in him a hated rival
for the hand of Frieda, whom he had
left behind in the German town of
Dusseldorf.
To the immigration officials Fritz
told the story of his coming to Ameri.
ca two and half years ago to make
home for his intended bride. The
officials looked over August and Frieda
and decided they would be valuable
acquisitions to the ranks of the Ger.
man-Americans in the United States
and passed them through the lines.
