An InexhaustibIe Letter-FiIe.

Apparently the letterfiles of
the White House are inexhaust-

dragged from the archives letter
written to My Dear Sherman in
1906 repudiating Mr.. Hartman as
an undesirable citizen, Hartman
having declined to contribute to
a republican campaign fund.
Mr.. Hearst exposes Senator
Foraker as paid attorney of the
Standard Oil Company. Mr..
Roosevelt promptly publishes a
letter written by Mr.. Taft declin-
ing TO make any truce with the
Senator which would involve
Foraker's return to the Senate.
| he tact leaks out that the
Standard o.. Company had con-
tributed 100000 to the Roosevelt
fund in 1904. Mr.. Roosevelt had
already 'aken the precaution TO
have a l5-cent magazine print his
letter to Mr.. Corielyou ordering
this contribution returned There
is much applause except by the
Standard Oil Company. which
did not get it's money back after

larger possibilities, but they should
not forget, what they often do. that
the lack Is many times in men rather
than In their surroundings. Russell
Conwell of Pennsylvania, the noted
lecturer in his talk on Acres OF
Diamonds" wildly portrayed the
wonderful possibilities for wealth, for
power, for fame that existed In this
country. When asked where they
were he would say Young men, they
are under your feet. They are every
where. They are yours for the seek
ing and you can have them II you are
only able to see them" The great
need of today in all branches of bust
ness and in all pursuits of life is for
trained men-men who are larger than
their jobs-men who do not count the
hours and watch for the pay envelope
but who have a passion for achieve
ment. The kind of men who would
rather do the work they are engaged
In than anything else on earth be-
cause 1t appeals to them and gives
them a satisfaction that nothing else
can. An official of the United States
Steel company, who has directly under
his supervision hundreds OF young
American men was asked the other
day whether he had all his positions
hu oh
There are simply bunch of fellows
rafting round in them"
If young men could only understand
that as long as they are contented to
merely rattle round in a place and
fill up so much time they will never
amount to much, many of them would
change their mode of life. What bust
ness men want-what the world wants
In every POSITIONS men who are
masters of the situation. And when
one really thinks of it there is moth
ing else in all this world that gives
such supreme satisfaction to thought
full, earnest soul as, when after he
has completed job of work of any
kind for a man, that man tells him
either by word or deed, Your work
is very creditable." But in order to
gain this enconium there must be
strenuous, persistent toll that uses up
nervous energy and muscular power
and coupled with it an enthusiasm
that knows no bounds.

TAKE OFF YOUR HAT TO HIM

1t isn't much wonder that people
in other countries often times smile
upon Americans when they rather
boast that they have no king. Ameri-
cans not only point with pride to this
fact but eXpend good deal Of pity
upon their European neighbors over
the prevalence Of regicide on the
continent. But recently the anarch-
lists have pointed out to us our mistake
They have located our kings and they
have found them in the policemen of
our cities and our towns.
1t is singular discovery to the
average citizen for too often the man
with the blue coat has been made the
butt of jokes, on the street, in the
funny papers and on the stage. BY
many the policeman is passed by
without much concern, but the an
archist is hunting for king and he
knows where to find him. He finds
him in the man who represents the
power and the law. That man is the
king in Europe, here he is the police
man. The other day when the Russian
anarchist entered the home of Chief
Shippey of the Chicago police force,
he evidently had no design upon Ship.
pey as man. He had no personal
enmity against him. The truth is, he
h
days made inquiries as to where he
lived before he located his house.
He was after the king, the man who
stood for established law and order
His only design was to throw a bomb
at authority. He hated it because it
has way of disregarding mere H.
cense, of not allowing a man to do as
he pleases if he pleases to do some
thing which will injure society.
1t would be well indeed if in all
our towns and cities there could come
about a greater respect and truer ap-
probation of the work that this real
king, the policeman, does. It is true
IhaI ordinarily from day to day, fam
liar as he is to the people of the
town, he is not particularly heroic in
his proportions, but after all, his daily
work is the protection of society. 1t
Is he who tries the locks of the mer.
chants doors to see that they are Sc
cure at night; it is he who watches
the burglar who attempts to take
property in the midnight hours and
often illustrates his designs; it is he,
who at the call of duty gives even life
itself if need be that the peace of the
community may be maintained. The
anarchist makes no mistake when he
crowns the American policeman as
its king. Hats off to the policeman!

A FAVORABLE OUTLOOK.

For all kinds of legitimate business
there is as spring approaches very
encouraging prospect. Especially In
the great central west where men are
busy on the farm and in the factory
producing the necessities of life
which the world wants at a good price
there Is every reason to look forward
to a continued and enlarged prosperity
II is true that the country is not
going ahead at the break neck pace
of the early fall, buying autos and
diamonds for distribution at every
cross roads. But it has not stopped
buying the necessities of life and
Furthermore good prices are being paid
for them.
There has been marked retrench-
ment and 1t shows the sound financial
health of the country that this could
be brought about so quickly without
great Inconvenience to the people as
a whole.
The imports reached their highest
point in December, 1906, when the
total reached $124,0O0,OOO. A year
passed and last December the total
dropped to $95,OOO,O00.
1t Is a pleasure to look at the other
side of the picture and compare our
exports with our imports. While we
are buying near as much of others,
the rest Of the world keeps right on
buying in still greater amounts of
us.
In January the exports of the United
States were $2O6,OOO,OOO This was
$17,OO0,000 greater than for the same
month one year ago. The balance of
trade in our favor for the past year
was $5S,000,0O0.
This condition of affairs which
promises to continue helps greatly in
bringing about that revival of business
which Is desired. The foundation
of a new prosperity is solid. In that
prosperity Nebraska will share. 1t is
Norfolk's opportunity to grasp des-
tiny's hand firmly and attain to the
larger place it is to occupy.

the mind of the great secretary their
presence and the revelation they will
be of the mighty power of the great
republic will prove amply sufficient
to compel the respect of the world

The American people are honestly
striving for peace. They have no de.
sire whatever for the cruelties of war.

THE CLEVELAND HOLOCAUST.

That was a pitiful piece of news
which came over the wires only a
few days ago, telling us that hun
dred or more school children in the
city of Cleveland had been burned or
crushed to death when caught in the
doomed school building. 1t made the
heart eff every father and mother
throughout the length and breadth of
the land culver with sense of hor-
ror at the thought that little ones like
their own beloved, the pride of home,
the hope of the future, the center of
all earthly ambition, had in a moment
Of time passed out of life. There is
something about the children which
appeals to us all, For them civiliz-
alton exists; for them the schools and
the church and the home are main.
tanned; for them the hard days work
at the office is done; for them the
dinner pail is carried; for them the
mother bears burdens which only
Heaven really knows. The children
are the incentives of life.
1t would be hard under any circum-
stances to think of hundred sweet
young lives as suddenly extinguished
and there are great calamities which
no man can foresee and whose results,
however baneful they may be, however
ineXtricable they may appear to us,
are in the hands of a power higher
and greater than ourselves. In such
calamities mankind has simply to bow
to His will and meet the consequences
as bravely as possible.
But in the Cleveland holocaust the
results cannot be charged to Provi-
dence. In the three story school
building, with its four hundred pupils,
there were two exits, and when the
children, ranging from six to fourteen
years of age, attempted to make their
way at the call of their teacher out of
the different rooms, knowing as they
did that the building was on fire, they
sought, as others would have sought,
exit by the nearest route. The front
entrance was open. The most of them
escaped who sought this way. But
there was rear doorway and those
who went to reach the out of doors by
this way, found themselves hemmed
in because the door opened inward
and they could not open it.
By this time the fire had gained
such Roadway that it was impossible
for many of them to make their escape
