THE SOUVENIR BEE

George p. Bemis furnishes the following
extract from a letter he has just received
from A. w. Bostwick. who edited the Lon
don American for Mr. Bemis I'm London dur
ing the civil war
''On the occasion of recent re-
turn to Baltimore from New York l

generous recognition. Please remember me
TO the editor and proprietor OF The Bee and
tell him that ! consider that issue of his
publication as fine as anything that has
been issued by any of our great newspapers.
Ii is valuable evidence of enterprise, in
dustry and artistic excellence"
Lincoln Star: The Omaha Bee issued on
New Years what it appropriately calls "A
Brds-Eye View of Omaha and Jubilee Ed-
ton" 1t is strikingly and solidly mer-
torious, not merely on account OF bulk. al
though il fills thirty-two pages. sixteen of
which are devoted TO such local interests as
value of the matter and the artistic work.
1t is compact, thorough, comprehensive and
yet attractive and entertaining. 1t is the
very reverse of the stuffed and padded
showings which so many newspapers COM
pile for such editions. This performance OF
The Bee is worthy Of special note for the
high standard which it establishes in Ne
braska and western journalism. 1t is a
magnificent advertisement for Omaha the
good effect of which is beyond all estima
ton. The business men should circulate ii
by the hundred thousand.

Mr. sedIey Brown has dared a little
farther than Mr.. William DeMilie. jr. Mr.
DeMille separated his Indian lover and pale
faced maiden. and between them reared
the insuperable barrier Of racial divergence
Mr. Brown sweeps away this barrier on a
tidal wave Of true love. and bids defiance
to the psychology that would hold apart
hearts that are united in psychic affinity,
regardless of the color Of skin or any sim
liar chronological attribute. That quick
sympathy that responds so reoL-ly to the
call of true love is with Mr.. Brown; the
thought that follows cold. hard reason is
still with Mr.. DeMille. Mr.. Browns In
