sample Of Nebraska Prosperity.

NIOBRARA, Neb. Aug. 3-To the Ed
itor Of The Bee: 1t requires only a very
short stay in Knox county to enable the
most careless and superficial observer to
comprehend that prosperity has smiled
upon the farmer and It is hardly a surprise
that he is content with present conditions.
1 had occasion to visit ranchman a few
miles east of this city. I mention him
only because he furnishes a handy exam
pie. l have known him for twelve years,
and eight years ago he was engaged in
other business and had lost everything.
Byron @. Foreman came to Knox county
and ran in debt for land. Today he has
1,4OO acres worth $50 per acre and a herd
Of Hereford cattle that simply beggar de-
scription and whose present market price
would pay off the small debt against the
land, and he has made II all OF of this
land. He took me up upon the blum and
showed me his broad acres and fine timber
grass land and one OF the finest arteslan
wells in northeastern Nebraska, when l
referred him to the story of the tempta-
ton of Christ by Satan. He laughed and
invited me to the house, where l was
royalty entertained. While we we're partak-
ing Of refreshments he related the history
of his experience in Knox county. It was
only the story of many successful career
in this garden of the west. Why do peo-
pie crowd our cities to congestion7

Insurnnce Trust Funds.

NEW YORK, Aug Ito the Editor OF
The Bee: My attention has been called to
an editorial in your issue Of the % inst,
headed, "A Struggle over Trust Funds"
from which beg to quote as follows:
mot dollar for all this vast campaign
expense has been raised in pursuance of
any general levy upon the policyholders or
appeal to them for contributions"
Permit me to correct a mistaken i'm
preston in that respect and to enclose a
copy of the address of the International
Policyholders' committee containing an ap-
peal for funds. In addition to this ad-
dress the circular is being mailed. with a
subscription blank. to all policyholders
whose addresses are obtainable. num-
Der of voluntary contributions have al
ready been made and we have no doubt
that ample funds will be contributed by
the policyholders. There is no other source
from which they can come. There is no
powerful or other financial interest back
Of this movement on the part OF the policy
holders. On the contrary, II is an unselfish
and dlslnterested campaign by men Of ma
tional reputation to protect the policyhold-
ers and as such II ought to receive the
hearty support of the press and the public
None of the men concerned IN thu move
ment have any personal interest to serve
Without organization the policyholdere are
helpless. l am sure that the names OF
the men constituting the committee will
serve as a guaranty of their entire good
faith and public spirit.

building costing somewhere between
$4,000 and $4,000 is promised by Sinner &
Chase and the Barker company for the
northwest corner OF Nineteenth and Harvey
streets. Il will be either four or FIVE
stories in height and will be s4xS5 feet,
which is the size OF the lot, for which the
deal has just been closed by Sinner
Chase with the heirs of an English es-
tate to whom the lot belonged.
The two firms have definitely decided 10
build, and II is their expectation to erect
the building this fall Negotiations are
under way with prospective tenants. and
twe sets OF preliminary plans will be drawn
for the inspection of the two concerns
which would use a large floor space. A
deal will be made with one of these. 1t
is probable, though not sure. that only the
lower floor will be used for business, and
that the upper stories will be made into
apartment houses.
A lot on Nineteenth street and in the

First Christian church for $4,000, Sinner
