Washington. Dee. 9.-The accident to
Secretary Taft's trousers, which delay
Cd him 20 much that the dinner given

such sarcastic thrusts as "brainstorm"

the movement.

Mr.. Merten's Contract Calls For an
Expenditure Of $77,s72 - Construc-

Spring.
The contract for the new hospital
buildings has been let to w. G. Mer-
ten of Emerson for $77S72. DR.. G.
A. Young of the Norfolk hospital re-
turned to this city Wednesday after
noon from Lincoln, where the contract
was awarded by the state board of
public lands and buildings.
Construction work on the three new
buildings for the Norfolk hospital will
not start until next spring. The build
ings will probably not be completed
before the following spring.
Pressed brick was substituted for
stone in the plans upon which the
contract was finally let. When it was
seen that the specification providing
for the use of stone were going to
bring the bids above the appropriation
available for the Norfolk buildings
substitute bids were asked for. The
final plans provide for the use of
pressed brick with stone foundations
and stone trimmings.

WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM
TREASURY NOTE ISSUE is COR
RECT SOLUTION.
OPINION OF SENATOR ALLEN
Former United States Senator William
V. Allen Says Asset Currency is
Nonsense and Was Long Ago Elk
pIoded as Correct Remedy.

The asset currency plan as relief for
a financial stringency is nonsense and
was long ago exploded as an unfit
theory, according to former United
States Senator William V. Allen, who
was in Norfolk from Madison during
the day. The issuance of bonds, such
as the Panama bonds that have just
been issued, is the correct remedy, in
the view of Senator Allen.
New York wants asset currency be-
cause it will give New York financiers
more money to speculate with" said
Senator Allen. What the west wants
is to break away from New York. The
west has been breathing through the
lungs of New York in a financial way
too long. The west has had an idea
that it had to get its financial judg-
ment and theories from New York.
LAS soon as the eastern stringency
loosens up, as it is already beginning
to do, these bond issues will retire
themselves, and the tax upon them is
borne by the man who ought to pay
1.-THE man of wealth"
Senator Allen was in the United
States senate at the time the law was
enacted making possible the recent
treasury note issue which he believes
is the proper remedy.

The city Jail and the lower floor OF

Water Commissioner Brummund
when he heard that the jail was being
deliberately flooded came down stairs
In a high dudgeon. The water COM

jealous care and he was grieved at
the shameful waste that was taking
place directly under his office.
The water commissioner was joined
by Police Judge Eiseley but Uhl, who
had something Of lag" on, only
Knocked at the circumstances Of the
city officials. Efforts to disconnect
the water from the street did not
prove successful and no keys we're at
hand to effect an entrance to the Jail,
where the prisoner was making merry
over the deluge of water that was CIV
ing the jail floor an extra cleaning at
the expense OF the city mains.
Fred Uhl, who came to Norfolk
from Omaha with an eye to corn husk-
ing, was gathered in early in the even
ing by Chief of Police Flynn.
Uhl was arrested in a local saloon,
where he had smashed a show case
and appeared inclined to start a
trough house"
In police court the morning after
he was fined 50 and costs but did not
have the money to pay.

THE VALUE OF AN IDEAL.
Dean curtiss on the Chicago lnterna-
tional Stock Show.

tional Stock Show.
At the first or second show of the
International Live Stock exposition,
young farmer from Iowa was attract
ed by an exhibit of improved corn.
The uniformity and excellence of the
product appealed to the eye and the
words of the young man in charge Of
the booth kept ringing in the farmers
ears. He resolved to test the merits
of improved blood in seed corn. He
purchased a bushel of the best corn
he could buy, at what seemed like a
long price. Then he prevailed on a
successful and reliable corn breeder
to let him have ten ears of his choic-
est corn at still higher price. He
took this corn home to his Iowa farm
and went to work to reproduce it and
make it better. He gave 1t close and
intelligent attention for several years.
Last winter he came to the short
course at Ames with an exhibit of corn
and won the grand championship for
single ear. The ear of corn was
pronounced the most perfect that had
ever been seen. 1t sold at public auc-
ton for $3.50, a rate Of over $4,000 a
bushel. This ear in corn competition
was as outstanding as young Abbots'
burn in Shorthorn excellence. 1t was
exhibitor, the same year, produced
two other ears, each good enough for
grand championship, with the first
out of the way. This young farmer,
who got his inspiration and higher
ideals at the International Live Stock
exposition, has sold seed corn to hun
dreds of farmers in Iowa and adjoin-
ing states, number of whom have
been winners at prominent shows.
This is single instance of the value
of higher ideal in agriculture. There
are hundreds of similar cases at each
recurrence of the International Live
Stock exposition, though the results
may not be as striking as In this case.
When John Ruskin, the great Great
or of higher art and ideals, was boy,
he often accompanied his father on
his travels. In visiting the great art
galleries the father always preceded
him and selected the pictures repre-
senting the higher types of art and
took care that the son did not see
those of inferior grade. The father
was molding the sons mental concep-
tons to higher ideals in art. The
result was that Ruskin became the
master mind of his time in his chosen
field.
The International Live Stock Expo
sition affords the same high ideals in
agriculture. It's value from year to
year to this, the greatest creative in
dustry known to man, cannot be meas
ured or fully estimated. Its lessons
become more potent, more practical
and more imperative with each sue
ceeding year. G. f. Curtiss,
