OLD WESTERN NORMAL BURNS
Building at Lincoln Subject of Legis-
Iative Confederation IL De-
stroyed.

~ A'AA n bNoAA
LINCOLN, Oct. 1~7-(Special Telesram.)-
The Nebraska Military academy, three
miles west Of Lincoln. was completely de-
stroyed by fire this morning. Most Of the
bedding, the clothing of the students, and
twofp pianos were saved. The loss will be
about $40. 90 and the insurance is $4,000.
The school was owned by b. n. Hay
ward and was formerly known as Western
Normal. II was built some years ago at a
cost Of $4,000 and this summer was
bought from the George d.. Perkins es-
tate by Mr.. Hayward Tor 5000. Mr.. Hay
ward spent $4,000 in putting the building
in repair and September l opened q milf
tary school.
The school opened with sixty five pupils.
These, with the Haywards and instructors,
were at breakfast about s o'clock when
the fire was discovered by a passing
farmer. The blaze at this time was near
a chimney, and 1t Is supposed 70 have
been caused by sparks blown into the shin
gle roof. There was no ladder or fire pro-
lection orr the place. consequently there
was nothing to do but watch the building
burn.
The fire spread with great rapidlty and
soon enveloped the entire structure. As
slstance came from the insane hospital.
about two miles away, but owing to lack
of apparatus the building could not be
saved. The boys carried out their clothing
and books and two pianos and that was
all. The fire could be seen from Lincoln
and hundreds of people drove out. All of
the students. or most Of them, are nom
residents and lived at the school. Mr..
Hayward has not yet decided what he
will do.

added. In outlining the situation to Mr..
Taft, Mr.. Cox said that he was nominated
unanimously and that he had made a
campaign Of the state. making business the
strict issue.
The negro question has been eliminated
he added. by an amendment to the state
constitution. which, It is estimated, will
limit the negro vote to 5000 in the state.
This was the action Of the democrats. who
declared they were not DISTINGUISHING the
negro by enfranchising the whites"

I'VE should bear in mind the fact that
the virtue OF the law is not to be measured
merely by the number OF prosecutions In.

these statutes lies in their deterrent In

the law might engage In practices preju-
dieial to the public interest. II the laws
already enacted shall. with large knowl-
edge, prove to be inadequate or unsuited
to accomplish what the people desire and
deserve In the way of intelligent and ef-
fective control, the republican party pos
sesses the wisdom and the ability TO supply
such deficiency by proper legislative enact
ment. Let us rot forget that the election
Of Judge Taft will be an assurance that

approve so Thoroughly. will be carried out
