Royal Bouquet. for the Cook.

new 4 DIRK lTlDune p
Never did the German kaiser speak truer
words than when last week he dwelt upon
the Importance of good cooking. Upon that
depends in large measure health, happiness
and prosperity. There is no better assur-
ance of long life and health than an In
variable supply Of food so cooked as to
be nourishing and easily digestible. There
is no stronger guarantee Of domestic bliss
than a right condition of the morning
chops and coffee, There could be, perhaps,
no greater benefit to the poor than to
teach them how to prepare their food
in an economical, appetizing and healthful
manner. But with all his praise of good
cooking and his exhortation to it's uni
versal practice, will his imperial ma esty
undertake the task OF providing the world
with good cooks or of telling humanity
where 1t can find them?

The people of Nebraska at the last
election voted the republicans a good
working majority in both houses OF
the legislature and they voted for the
republican candidates with a definite
object in view. Through its repre-
seDtatives in convention, authorized
to speak, the republican party had
committed itself to a program of leg
islative reform and appealed to the
people on the strength of these plat
form pledges. The republican ma
jorities In the house and senate rep
resent, therefore, popular faith in the
redemption of republican promises.
The official organization of the two
houses will have a great deal to do
with the execution or neglect of the
reform program. In both branches OF
the legislature, although in the house,
perhaps, more than in the senate, the
presiding officer holds the guiding
hand and can block, or expedite the
business to be transacted 1t is highly
important that the organization of the
two houses, which has too often been
perfected with a view to serving cor
porate and other special interests,
shall be accomplished this time with a
sole view to square deal legislation for
the people.
The members should be on their
guard, therefore, against pitfalls dug
by the lobby and make sure that they
are not misled by some railroad cap
per In disguise. We are satisfied that
the great majority of the newly
elected lawmakers will go to Lincoln
firmly intending to do the right thing
by the people, but good intentions are
not enough. The coming Legislature
will be judged by it's actions and by
its record and it should be specially
careful at the start to put the right
foot forward and keep to the straight
and narrow path.

Secretary of State Galusha is being
taken to task by carping critics for So
called "misinformation" in his printed
tabulation of the membership of the
two houses Of the legislature in which
the political afiliation of most of the
minority is given as populist. This is
said to be an ineffaceable insult to GER
tain dyed-in-the-wool democrats to
whom the label "populist" is an aver
sion like unto snakebite. Secretary of
State Galusha may have made some
mistakes of identification, but the
chances are that most of them are due
to the fact that the successful demo-
cratic candidates were disguised on
the ticket as populists using the mas
querade to fool dull-witted voters. If
it is the next thing to crime to call
democrat a populist, Nebraska popu-
lists must hereafter appreciate more
highly the privilege of voting for dem
ocrats by virtue of the fusion fake.
