Omcers and Salaries.

OMAHA, March 24.-To the Editor of The
Bee: Your editorial in Saturdays Bee about
the primary law brings out a serious defect
in that law, and one in which we may we'll
be concerned. 1 have heard several candi-
dates for the council making a plea for
support and various reasons are given
as to why they should be elected. But
one young man whose earnings nave never
exceeded $50 per month, frankly stated that
he wanted the support at the coming cleo
ton so that he could sell his labor at a
higher figure and give his family some Of
the ~luxuries of life" Would any business
corporation entertain the application of a
person to the board of control on such a
plea as that? Surely a law that encourages
the nomination and election of such per-
sons is dangerous, for II is impossible for
the people to know each candidate.
to think he has a claim upon the citizens,
all because he has made and lost $780, 600
here. A salary of sl25 per month doubtless
looks attractive TO him I'm his I'D age, as
It naturally would to anyone who has
made a failure of business. Let the citi-
gems be very careful in their choice and
select men who have a higher conception
OF the duties that will devolve upon them,
than It is possible to expect from one who
looks upon the salary as a thing more to be
desired than service to the public. Yours
truly. TAXPAYER

Clore to Teach
Russian Farmers
How to Raise Corn
Winner of National Exposition Prizes
Accepts Offer to Go to the
Cars Country.

L. b. Clore. who won the title Corn
King of the World" by winning the sweep
stakes at the National Corn exposition in
Omaha last December. will go 10 Russia
on a small salary and assist in showing
the interior farmers how to grow corn.
Word received in Omaha is to the effect
that the trip will be undertaken as soon
as Mr.. Clore can secure a mar to assume
the management OF his prize corn land.
The salary is only 5000 per annum. This
Is about as much as Mr.. Clore wins at the
state fairs and corn expeditions each year
on his corn. But he is going for the ex-
perience. Travelling expenses are paid by
the Russian government, They will amount
to something. Mr.. Clore is a comparatively
young man, just ~ years Of age, and says
he is not too old to give two or more
years OF his life to the work in Russia.
Mr.. Clore will not enter corn at the
Omaha exposition. feeling that IL some
} other growers can win and score higher
than his scores have been made. he is
willing for them to get the prizes which
will be offered in the future.

MIR. HnckIer and the Land once.

GREGORY, s D., March 2.-To the Edi-
tor of The Bee: Under date OF March 20
your Washington correspondent among
other things stated that MIR. Hacker of
Dallas had made a hard fight TO have the
United States Land office removed from
Gregory to Dallas.
1 cannot understand why or how my name
was thus used, as my home has been in
Gregory since the town was started and
/ have done all in my power. in my
humble way, in having the land office re-
moved from Mitchell to Gregory. My name
was evidently used In lieu of Mr.. Jack
sons, whose action in trying to reopen the
fight was so manifestly a grand stand
play for political and business advertise
ment that even the good citizens of Dallas
do not approve of his scheme. Mr.. Jackson
is chief head of the Pioneer Trust company,
whose principal business is locating the in
coming homesteaders. I would not even
want my name connected with this last
spectacular movement. as much as to even
oppose the removal Of the office from
Gregory to Dalls, as such a thing was and
is utterly impossible from any standpoint.

Make Wants Home
Like Other Boys
Lad Does Not Understand Why He
is Not Adopted by Some
Man.

Make F1Ekhorst has been retained at
the Child Saving institute longer than
usual. He Is an abnormal child and for
that reason his adoption has not been
found practicable.
b His father died when he was an infant
and for two years after his death the
mother struggled against poverty in her
effort to support herself and child. Fall
ing in health she had to be taken to the
Douglas County hospital, where death over
took her five years ago. Make was at
that time 4 years old and since the death
Of the mother he has been cared for at
the institute and has been attending school,
where his success has been good. He is
an exceedingly bright and promising boy.
During these five Years the little fell
low has watched the coming OF many
farmers and others who wanted boys of
his age. He listened to the conversation
and saw the selections made OF other
boys, and was sad and disappointed and
broken hearted many times because he
was not selected to go out into a home
for adoption. His pitiab1e appeals to the
superintendent for a chance to go into a
home have differed from the appeals of
other boys, because a sad note ran through
them and expressions Of fear that for
some redsoh which e couiu not uhuerslaHu
he might be rejected by the nex man who
came in search of a boy OF his age. He
Is at the institute now and cannot under
stand why other boys can get homes and
he is rejected by those who make in
q%uiries. Everything is done that can be
done to train and comfort him and TO
encourage him in the matter of education
and to assure him that bye and bye the
splendid opportunity will be furnished TO
him such as other boys have found.
