CAUTION IN SKATING.

The Northfork river Is frozen over
with thin layer of ice and young
boys are already beginning to once
more tempt death by gliding out upon
the thin crust with fair chances of its
breaking In. Just at this time the ice
on rivers in this section is not safe
and all of those who try it with their
steel runners are risking their lives
Parents should see to it that their
children are intelligently informed as
to the danger, lest the rivers here may
claim their annual victim.
1t Is reported that a large number
of Norfolk boys only last night went
skating on the Northfork. The North.
fork river is at all times dangerous
one for skating. The stream Is fed by
thousands of springs underneath
which, bubbling up, create airholes in
the ices crust. These airholes, de-
ceptive traps, are unseen by the skater
until they crash through and drop him
into the icy depths below.
The river is very deep at all points
and, once under the ice, it is a mar
vellous feat for the victim to recover
The Elkhorn river, well frozen, is
not dangerous, but the swift current
does not allow it to freeze so soon.
Ponds and sloughs are not yet froz
en- to a safe thickness, though they
will be perfectly safe little later.

BETTER MERCHANT MARINE

Secretary Root, in speaking of the
need of broader trade with Latin
American countries, speaks Of the
woefully deficient American merchant
marine. This woeful deficiency is be-
coming more and more apparent and
1t Is not at all improbable that the
next session of congress will take &C.
ton to increase the merchant marine
of this country.
A bill for this purpose was present.
ed last year and was passed by the
senate and favored by the president
but It never passed the house.
There has been an increasing de,
mand from all quarters of the coun.
try for better merchant marine and
the matter appears now to stand a
good chance for action.

Before any other candidate for the
man.elect J F.. Boyd on the bench in the
Ninth judicial district had been an.
nounced, The News endorsed the can.
didacy of Hon. A. A. WEIGH of Wayne
for the appointment. Since the cam.
paign for this position has got under
way, there has been no incident to
convince this paper that it should
change it's course and it still stands
for Mr.. Welch as the logical candidate
Besides being personally fitted for the
place, Mr.. Welch comes from a county
which is more entitled to the appoint
ment than is Madison county at the
present time. During past years Mad
ison county has had candidates for a
number of high offices and now is hon
ored with a supreme Judge. Wayne
county has solicited few offices and
has had few. In accordance with the
fair principle of distributing offices
among the several sections of the com
monwealth, Wayne county is entitled
to consideration. Madison county
ought to be glad of a chance to recip
rocate. Wayne county was first in
the field, has every reason to ask the
appointment, has good man as a can
didate and he, having received the en-
dorsement of this paper when he stood
alone in the race, is still entitled tc
our support. Pierce, Madison and An
telope counties each have state OF
federal officer at the present time
The only counties in the Ninth judi
cial district not thus honored are
Knox and Wayne. Knox county is en-
dorsing the Wayne county candidate
in this instance, giving Wayne county
strong and just claim to the place.

NOT PRESIDENTIAL TIMER

II is announced from Des Moines
Lnat Governor Cummins of Iowa has
now been mentioned as presidential
possibility. His senatorial bee Is also
buzzing. Whatever Iowa may care to
do with Governor Cummins, the coun.
try at large is not ready to accept him
for n moment as a presidential posi-
bility. Not even the west Is ready to
support him.
Governor Cummins has proven him.
self compromising candidate for the
sake of office. He has pretended to
be the tariff reform leader in the re-
publican party. The republican party
needs no tariff reform leader because
the country needs no tariff reform,
but Governor Cummins is not the Mo-
SEES even If one were needed. He sac
rificed his Iowa idea on the tariff at
the last Iowa republican nominating
convention, for the sake of the office.
He had stood for reform He accepted
the stand pat platform without a muir
MUIR He was running for office
Now he would ask to lead the ma
tional party in tariff reform. He
failed to make good on the one idea
that he did stand for, and he Is not
the stuff needed by the national repub-
lican party. Iowa can do what it
wants to with him.

people have been wont to believe and
though the plants must be operated
under government supervision. he de
clares that the business can be made
successful. Mr.. Yerkes is quoted as
saying:
There is no objection to farmer
manufacturing his alcohol in his back
yard, provided he wants to establish
distillery there.
IF a farmer or other person desires
to go into the business of manufactur
ing denatured alcohol, at a plant, how
ever small, he will be required to con
struct his plant In the manner pre-
scribed by the general laws and regu
lations. He will be required to give
bond, establish a distillery, warehouse
deposit the spirits produced by him
In this warehouse, establish a dena
turing bonded warehouse, and to pay
the tax or denature, just as he may
wish the alcohol produced by him. All
kONtIuIlbUIdl
supervision, but the government pays
for 1t. The manufacturer of alcohol
does not bear one cent of it, and, as
long as there is a tax on distilled spir.
its, anything less than a complete SUI.
pervision of all distilled spirits pro.
duced, whether for tax payment or
denaturtion, would result in gross
frauds on the revenue, and would work
hardships on honest dealers in and
manufacturers of tax paid spirits.
"If people will take trouble to in.
vestigate, they will find that the laws
and regulations, relating to manufac-
ture of alcohol in Germany, do not
differ to any great extent from the
laws and regulations in this country
and that, so far as the manufacture of
denatured alcohol by the American
farmer is concerned, it is simply a
business proposition, and they will
not be greatly deferred from entering
into the business by what some are
pleased to term ridiculous red tape of
regulations and Instructions The
very fact that there are small indepen-
dent distilleries, established and op-
Grating all over the country, in the
manufacture of distilled spirits for
beverage purposes, ought to be suffi-
cient answer to any claim that the
present internal revenue laws and reg
ulations favor special interests"

Word comes from Chicago that rail.
road officials are considering the in
creasing of railroad rates all along
the line in order to meet the continued
demands of the railway employees.
To continue the present service, ar
que the railroad managers, rates must
be increased And II rates are in
creased, prices on commodities will
go higher, because of extra cost. The
railway employee with others will be
called on to pay this added cost of
goods, In the end 1t is the consumer
who pays the freight.

ricultural interests in this country In
the discovery by Prof. n. T.. Hansen
OF the South Dakota experiment sta
ton, after risking his life in Siberia,
an alfalfa seed suited to the northern
climate of the United States. Alfalfa
has become one of the most profitable
products of the American farm and

MAYOR SCHMITZ,,

The graft scandal from San Fran
cisco has been not quite so severe a
shock as the earthquake itself, per-
haps, but it has nevertheless greatly
astounded the people of this country.
That an official at the head of a strick-
en- city and In time of direst need,
would extort money from various re-
sorts for his personal purse, has
brought blush to the cheek of Amer
lea.
Mayor Schmitz was elected by a
corruption party in San Francisco.
He was the tool of corrupt gang and
Abraham Reuf was his boss. Schmitz
made a great grandstand play during
the fire and earthquake and the coun-
try believed for several months that
he had, in time of emergency, shaken
OFF the collar of the gang and become
true mayor in fact as we'll as In
name, and good one. Only last
month several magazines commented
upon the great work of the mayor
when he abandoned the gang and this
man Reuf.
Mayor Schmitz had the chance of q
life time to make for himself an non,
orable name, He did not accept the
opportunity and now he is detested by
men. Progress is shown in the desire
to get at the facts of the scandal.

Is aroused over the treatment said to
be accorded their countrymen on the

nothing but peace and goodwill to-

that they cannot be permitted in any
sense to interfere with the growth of
closer business and political relations
between Japan and the United States.
They also indicate a readiness on the
part of Japan to enter into reciproc-
ity treaty with this country to further
commercial interests between the two
nations.

Love of luxury in these United
States has reached pitch never
dreamed of in the most luxurious days
of ancient Rome. Within the last fis-
cal year this nation brought from
abroad articles that cannot be classed

900. OF this amount 100000 went
to buy diamonds and other precious
stones for the decking out of Amer
lean women. In fact, the women are

ulated all OF the surplus funds that
they could get hands on. the New York
bankers then talk about money short
age and ask for an elastic currency in
order to enable them to return the
money that belongs to the west.
There was time when things
worked the other way. In the days
of ten or fifteen years ago the west
did the borrowing and the east did
the loaning. II was the west in those
days that felt the need of an elastic
currency, when eastern banks began
to call in their loans from the west
But times have changed. The enor.
nous crops that have blessed this
great western country during the past
few years have made the west abso.
lutcly Independent of the east and to-
day II is the west that holds the mort
gage on New York and 1t is New York
that is squirming for the elastic cur
rency relief. The western farmer is
doing the driving and the New York
banker is wearing the harness under
1906 prosperity.
In the olden days the only danger
ever felt by the west in financial mat
tiers was the fact that the east might
suddenly find itself in a period of
stress and begin to call in its loans
out here. That meant sacrifice to the
western business man just as it means
sacrifice to the eastern business man
today when the west wants it's money
to handle its crops.
But times have turned a somersault
and that old peril has disappeared
from the western calendar, that old
worry has flown from the brow of the
western business man. Today, with
money in the banks and with loans
down east, the west has no chance of
hard times to even think of so long
as conservatism reigns. So long as
the west holds itself within bounds
and does not plunge too deeply with
its prosperity, the commercial sea in
this section must remain smooth. And
conservatism is the safeguard. 1t is
human nature, when money is rolling
in, to want to play the game little
more, strongly, in the hope of winning
bigger prizes. To keep down that
gambling and specializing passion that
flows in human arteries, is all that the
great middle west will need to do in
order to keep on with this period of
seemingly boundless prosperity.
The west has cause for tremendous
satisfaction in its accomplishments of
the past few years. One Nebraska
bank alone loaned more than a mil
lion dollars in New York City last
summer. All that is required to keep
on with smooth sailing and a happy
future, is cool head and conserva-
tive tendency as against tendency to
plunge.

There is wailing and weeping in
Annapolis and West Point because of
the new railroad rate bill. 1t has
been the practice of the railroads to
carry the embryonic admirals and gen.
erals to the annual football game with
out charge. When the usual courtesy
was automatically asked this year, 1t
was learned that under the ruling of
the Hepburn bill, the cadets would be
compelled to pay their own fares. The
war department, after full investiga-
ton of the matter, has bowed its head
to the inevitable and has ordered the
cadets, If they want to chase the pig
skin against the jackies of the other
arm of the service, to scrape together
the price of railroad ticket or stay
in barracks.

EVERY OUNCE OF ENERGY NEEI


Norfolk is moving along in a good
constructive manner and all that Is
needed to continue in steady growth
and to grasp opportunities now pre-
senting themselves, will be to devote
organized effort of the city's business
interests to constructive instead of
destructive things.
A railroad project extending from
Yankton to the gulf and, according to
Senator Gamble, with Norfolk in view
as one of the points on the line, is
one of the possibilities in the near
future If the newly incorporated rail-
road is the real thing, as the connec.
ton of the United States senator from
South Dakota would indicate.
Every little while territory for Nor
folk industries is added by the North
western railroad. The new train SER
vice just put on to Chadron Is big
help and the extension of the Bone
steel line into the Rosebud reserva-
ton, which is being rapidly done, is
a mightier help to Norfolk. This line
will soon see trains running over 1t
and the added thirty miles will add
just that much more territory to Nor.
| folk, which as hitherto been only par
TALLY reached on account of the lack
of train service.
With these additions to Norfolk ter
ritory, more industries are springing
up. Right now a wholesale confec.
tionery establishment, which will man
ufacture candies, ETC., and which will
employ, it is said, between twenty and
thirty people, is being made ready for
actual operation the first of the year
Work has just been begun on new

A large number of other industries in
Norfolk are rapidly grasping the OPP
portunity before this city in a com
mercial way.
ergy toward this upbuilding and to-
ward accepting the splendid opportu
mites which are presenting them
selves. 1t is great field and one just
beginning to be developed.
Norfolk has no time to devote to un
necessary agitation within. Things
are running WELL Norfolk's spare en-
ergies just now want to be expended
in making Norfolk a bigger and a
buster city, rather than in trying new
and doubtful experiments which dc
not help in community construction
Norfolk has no time to walk around in
circle. 1t wants to go ahead in a
straight line, letting alone the things
that are running well enough, and
grasping new opportunities that pre-
sent themselves and which ought not
to be neglected.

THE WEST ACTS AS DRIVER NOW

For the sake of business conditions
of the whole country, as distinct from
the west, western bankers to a GER
tain extent favor the proposed curren-
cy reform legislation. 1t is admitted,
however, that the periods of financial
stress occur more in New York City
than out here in the west, and in New
York because the surplus funds depos-
tied there during the summer by west
ern banks, are asked for when crops
get ready to be moved. Having spec

Persistent rumors are in circulation
that Senator Plat of New York will
resign his seat, the resignation to take
effect before December 8, when con-
gress convenes. 1t is said that the
senator's i'll health and the notoriety
consequent upon his separation from
Mrs. Plat have spurred him to take
the action. For some years the Sc
Nor senator from New York has been
in precarious health, and his resigna-
ton has been expected nearly score
of times, but he has held on with grim
tenacity. His colleague, Senator De-
pew, is said to have almost complete
ly recovered his old-time health and
spirits, and he is expected back to
the capital within few days.

The indictment brought against ID.
p. Dyer, jr., receiving teller in the St
Louis subtreasury, son Of United

ed force the fact that the United States
government is not to be monkeyed

of $61,500 only few weeks ago caused
the government to concentrate its en-.
