THE NEBRASKA ISSUE.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 6.-The republi- can managers declared today that the state would be safely republican, but urge every voter to go to the poles. FusiOnists make no claims in figures, but assert that their ticket vii have a plurality. The gift of John D. Rocke- feller to the state university has been big issue of the campaign. The fus- iOnists claim the money should be re- turned.

d" Dont's" for Wives.

Don't encourage gossip.
Don't neglect your personal appear
ance.
Don't forget to interest yourself in
things which interest your husband.
Don't think yourself better than
your husbands relations.
Don't tell your mother, sisters or
friends OF every little tiff that occurs
between you and your husband.
Don't fire the days accumulation of
woes at your husband directly he re.
turns home.
Don't keep your husband waiting
for his meals.
Don't begrudge your husband an
hour spent sometimes with his male
friends.
Don't forget to be prompt and
pleasant at breakfast. Your husband
will then be prompt and pleasant at
tea.
Don't dictate to your husband re.

women are bad judges of mems dress.
Don't sacrifice your husband for
your children. He should always be
first.
Don't be the tale bearer of neigh.
bor's affairs. There are subjects far
more elevating and interesting which
husband and wife can talk about.

Those Confederate Flass.

The War Department has met with
an unexpected obstacle in its distribu-
ton to their respective owners of the
Confederate flags, captured in the
Civil War.
1t is found that fully 200 of the
flags cannot be identified, because
they were turned over to the depart
ment at the end of the war without
record Of where they were captured.
They have no distinctive marks.
The majority Of 5000 flags were
identified without difficulty. Some
we're marked with the names of their
respective regiments and the greater
number, when delivered to the de.
partment at the end OF the war, had
memoranda showing ct what places
they we're captured.
Military Secretary Ainsworth has
now returned all the flags that he has
been able to identify to their respec.
tive regiments, but there appears to
be no possible way by which the 20C
still remaining can be distributed to
their proper owners.
A question has arisen whether the
War Department shall retain these
flags or turp them over to some de-
pository for Confederate relics,

Tacoma News.
According to q statement made by
Captain King OF the police depart.
ment, this week, there will be an
influx OF pickpockets, purse-snatchers
and robbers into the Pacific North
west this summer. These men will

Residents of Tacoma, Seattle aud
Portland will have TO be cautious for

When in Seattle yesterday, Captain
King had a long conference with
Chief Delany Of the police department,
who said that Seattle would make
special provisions for the reception OF
crooks this summer. A detective will
be detailed to Portland during the
exposition months and soon as q
desperate man hits that city, tho Se-
attle officers will be notified to be on
the watch out for him if he goes there.

DO IT NOW.

We shall do much in the years to come,
But what have we done to-day?
We shall give our gold in princely sum
But what shall We give to day?
We shall lift the heart, and dry the
tear,
We shall plant hope in place OF fear,
We shall speak the words of love and
cheer,
But what did we speak to-day?
We shall be kind in after a while.
But what have we been to-day?
We shall bring to each lonely life a
smile,
But what have we brought to-day?
shall give to truth a grander birth,
And to steadfast faith deeper worth,
We shall feed the hungering souls OF
earth,
But whom have we fed to-day?

Ny Creed.

Is not to keep the alabaster box OF
kindness sealed up until our friends
are gone; but to fill their lives with
sweetness here and now. Speak kind
and cheering words while their ears
may hear them, and their hearts can
be thrilled and made happier. The
flowers we would place upon their
caskets let US give to them to-day-post.
mortem kindness does not cheer the
burdened spirit-Aowers on the casket
cast no fragrance backward over the
weary way. 1 would far rather have
a plain pine coffin without . flower,
. funeral without an eulogy than a
life without the love and good will
of this grand, glorious and dear old
world.
Then friends, let US be kind and
loving to all, because it is good to be
kind to love, and to be loved, not from
the hope of reward, nor the fear ol
punishment, for love is the helmsmau
OF the human craft, the balance spring
of the world, and the power behind
the throne.

A Good Suggestion.

This timely suggestion is offered to
the first meat market owner who is
willing to adopt it: Put q stationary
washstand in the most prominent part
of your establishment. Require your
men to wash their hands in it-pub.
licly, where every customer may see
every fifteen minutes. It is easy 10
imagine what effect it will have on
women given to cleanliness. Never
allow a salesman to wear Q badly
soiled apron. Let him change every
half hour, if necessary. Cost OF lsun.
dering will be repaid tenfold by in.
creased sales. No charge will be made
to the market man who uses this fine
advertisement. But some cynic may
say that the benefit of the scheme is
self.evident, or that it isn't new. Well,
it will be new in Portland.
Also in Olympia.

A Jonah Miracle.

A remarkable catch was made re-
Gently by q fisherman at Orrs Island,
Ogn. Besse Black, one Of the best
known of the lower river fishermen,
was out on the banks and succeeded
in landing . handsome thirty-five
pound cod. There was nothing par
ticularly extraordinary noticed about
the fish until after Mr.. Black had
returned to his home and had started
to dress it. Then he discovered on
cutting it open that it contained a
large bird, and when finally the
feathery creature was removed it was
found to be . large devil.bird, which is
about the size OF gull and is one OF
the coot family.
How the bird happened into the
stomach Of the cod was q mystery, for
it was easy to see that it had not been
eaten by the fish and must simply
have forced its way into the cod alive.

preserving kettle, and cook slowly until
it is reduced one half. Put the sugar
in a separate kettle with one-half Of a
cupful OF water for each pound, and boil
until the syrup will form a ball when
dropped in cold water; add it to the
fruit and boil all together, carefully re-
moving all scum, until it is 80 tbicl

RESOURCES. OF STATE.
Agricultural Products Are Immense and Con
sequently Increasing.


Washington's wheat crop this year
If equal to the average yield, will be
35,O00,0OO bushels, worth $3O,OOO,OOO
as the market is to-day, says State
Statistician George NJ. Allen in the
State Year Book now in the hands o,
the printer.
Considerable space is devoted in the
book to agriculture, which is treated
under separate heads, such as dairy.
ing, stock raising, etc. He tells OF
Western Washington oats that stand
six feet high and yield 100 bushels tc
the acre.
OF hops, an industry equally divid
ed between the eastern and western
parts of the State, he reports an aver.
age yield OF one ton per acre, and the
average cost OF production and mar.
keting about Z cents a pound. This
yields profit of 5000 to $3.50 an acre
to the grower.
Setting forth the opportunities here
for the egg and poultry business, the
statistician points out that but hall
the eggs consumed here are produced
in the State. while the price at Seattle
and Tacoma rarely falls below 20 cents
a dozen, and often stands at from 40
to SO cents for months at time.
The chapter devoted to cereals is
accompanied by statistical tables on
productions by counties, etc. 1t is
recited that "One of the remarkable
features of wheat-raising is the fact
that the yield seems to increase yearly
with the cultivation OF the soil. He
points out how the combined harvester
is becoming generally used. The last
crop OF wheat reached the average of
Isl bushels per acre, the highest of
any State in the Union.
Last year the State produced 4,OOO,-
700 bushels of 6srley, of which Colum-
bia and Garfield counties furnished
100000 bushels. The quality was so
high the crop was nearly all sold to
brewers, so barley from other States
had to be imported for feed.
OF flax it is said: "From expert.
ments already made it is believed
Western Washington can produce Q
fiber capable of being made into linen
to rival the very best OF Irish linens"

A Novel Rental.
London telegraph,

A curious method of letting land
was again observed at Bourne when
the white Bread Meadow" was Of.
fered. The auctineer is stationed on
the Queens Bridge, and as each bid
for the rent of the field is made q
boy is started to run to q given public
house and back again TO the bridge.
The person whose bid is unchallenged
when the last boy returns to the bridge
is declared to be the tenant OF the land
for the ensuing year. Mr.. F. G. Shil.
cock on Friday let the land by this
method, when tenant was found at q
slight increase on last years rent.

Northwestern HOmeseeker and Investor.
II is with pardonable pride that at.
tention is called to a bulletin OF the
Census Department relative to the
freedom from illiteracy in the Pacific
Northwest. Oregon stands third from
the top with percentage Of 99.5S out
of a possible 100, slightly under Ne
braska and Iowa. Washington's per-
centage is $3.50, and Idaho's 9S.77.
These figures speak eloquently for the
character of the citizens who per-
formed the pioneer work of the North.
west. They laid the foundation Of the
civic edifice on bedrock and the ma.
terial used in its construction was OF
the enduring kind. Education neces.
sarily contemplates a familiarity with
and respect for religion. Thus in
every community altars are erected
and patronized literally by men and
women who have. time to think OF
something beside the dollar. These
altars may bear the name of some par
ticular sect, but the lines are not
tightly drawn. There ia room and o
welcome in any church for the one
who desires to associate with those
who are seeking the elevation of the
race. The absence OF illiterates in the
Pacific Northwest accounts in great
measure for the stability of the insti-
tutions and the sterling character of
the citizens.

THE TRAIL.

Following is the poem for which th'
author received prize of 800, il
competition with many others, by thu
Of the Lewis and Clarl
Fair:
The call comes stron. and insistent
Out of the West-Oh, hark
Follow through hail or sun the trail
Blazed by Lewis and Clark ~
On with the blanket and saddle,
Ride like the devil possessed.
Swift on the way by night and day;
Hit the trail to the West!
Sting of the wind in our faces,
Crunching of hoofs on sand,
Whate' 'er betide pause not but ride
Straight to the promised land.
Whitcness OF sails on the ocean,
Cleaning Of gold in the hills,
Glory of grain on the harvest vain,
Upcurling smoke from the mills.
Off with the saddle and blanket,
kindle our hearthfires' spark,
Here's all hail to the westward trail
Bazed by Lewis and Clark!
