The University Of Nebraska, with its
5000 pupils, is in itself prize for which
any other enterprising city I'm the state
could afford to pay millions-Lincoln Star.
If Lincoln people could be made to
realize this potent fact they might
modify their demeanor in several re-
spects. Each legislature appropriates
approximately $1,OOO.OOO out of the
state treasury for the university, but
a small fractional part of which is
paid in by taxpayers in Lincoln where
It is spent. Let Lincoln people try to
imagine their city without the univer-
sity and the state house and they
may appreciate family the special
privileges which they enjoy at the
expense of the rest OF the state

Badly Mixed in Law and Fact.

Governor Shallenberger's eXplana-
ton of his demand for a recount
shows that he is badly mixed in his
law and fact. The governor apollo
gizes for giving us the open primary
and promises to recommend its repeal,
but seeks to justify his approval OF
the measure by making claims for it
pie. he says
The open primary law has some valuable
improvements on the former law. The pro-
vision for rotating the names upon the bal
| lot, the change of the date of the primary
from conflicting with the state fair and the
section providing for representative conven-
tons to make platforms are all provisions
which improve the old law and should be
retained as proved benefits.
Governor Shallenberger has over
looked the fact that the changes made
in the primary law by the late demo-
cratic legislature we're made by three
or four separate bills and were not all
included in the bill which afflicted us
with the open primary. The pro-
vision for representative state conven-
tons to make platforms is in differ
ent bill, the Oregon plan of pledging
legislative nominees on United States
senator is in another bill, the so-called
nonpartisan judiciary ballot is in still
another bill, and there was no good
reason whatever for the governor to
approve the open primary because of
any other feature, because that was
its sole inspiration and motive power.
The change of date in the primary
and rotation of the names could easily
have been brought about by simply
amending the closed primary law with
out opening the door for wholesale
crossing from one party to another.
The idea with which the democratic
Lawmakers were infected, and the
governor along with them, was that
with the open primary the democratic
ticket would be made up by agreement
denomination being conceded TO the
governor as a matter of course-an6
the democrats would be left free to &C
into the republican primary and try
by their votes to foist on the repub,
lican party a candidate for governor
whom they thought they could mos
easily beat in the election. That Is
what looked fair" to the governor
when he signed the bill, and it is only
chickens coming home to roost that II

! of what its sponsors expected.

waves. Fortunately she did not cap
size instantly and the next breaker
filled her. She lay, her gunwales flush
with the water. Her motion was still
violent. but less jerky. She was swept
ever onward by the vast undulations.
The indomitable woman clinging to
the thwart managed to keep her head
out of the water She realized that
that was the end and yet while she
had a remainder of strength. while
she could draw Pickering breath,
she would not give up. The boat, be-
ing waterlogged did not pitch so
much as before and she was able TO
maintain her hold, although every
wave that broke over her drenched
her again and again.
She wondered why the boat did not
sink and then she realized that the
empty gasoline tanks which she had
closed and locked. prevented the final
catastrophe; that the boat was in a
certain sense a life boat; that il would
float so long as the water pressure
did not succeed in opening the tanks
Therefore, she was for the moment
safe The only immediate danger
would be the capsizing of the boat
which would throw her out Since
the launch was already full OF water
the woman did not think this was
likely to happen.
She held on, her vitality gradually
growing weaker. hoping for the morn
ing and an abatement of the storm
She had no idea of time, of course
She could not tell what the hour was
1t was still dark. however, when a
strange sound smote her ear. She
heard II above the wild scream Of the
wind and the awful beat of the waves
II was a crashing sound. a battering
sound, a fearful. protentous sound
The boat ran forward more swiftly
now. She wondered the reason. TAX
ing advantage OF a brief lull, she
abandoned her grip on the thwart and
rose TO her knees. Immediately In
front of her she saw a white wall dis
closed to her by the lightning flashes.
She did not know what II was. The
roaring sound came from thence. She
was being borne rapidly toward II.
She was nearing Il with astonishing
swiftnsss. The boat was moving more
quickly now than at any time since
she had been In H. At last II broke
upon her consciousness that the white
wall was . mass Of foam: that The sea

Grass Fairs Classification is

gion has a reputation extending &C

which Il is particularly concerned the
Blue Grass Fair, which comes this
year the week of August S-l3, is repre-
sentative Although in magnitude and
importance fully on the basis OF q

maintenance, does not try 10 reach
outside the particular products with
which its section Is concerned and C
which its further advancement may ir
some measure be due Always bear
ing in mind the slogan "a Kentucky
fair for Kentucky products" il omits
from its classification certain breedf
OF live stock for which most state fairs
make provision. Such omission Is in
tended in no sense of criticism II Is
rather a course adopted after careful
consideration for what Is believed tc
be the best interest OF Kentucky anC
particularly Of this section.
The classification Of the Blue Grass
Fair, introduced in 1907 and since re
affirmed, is unique among works OF Us
kind. No other fair ever succeeded
in separating completely and entirel,
breeding and show classes in its horse
departments. The former are provid
cd for the three great American
breeds, the only three with which
Kentucky Is in any sense concerned
The show classes are thrown open e
the world, specifications OF individual
ity being the only consideration taker
into account, Competent judges hav.
pronounced the horse show at the
Blue Grass Fair the best in America !
No where else can such a display OF
breeding stock be found no where else

Nntlt.
The land that she had longed for
indeed lay athwart her course. In
another moment she would be in that
mass OF boiling foam. Well, she had
fought a good fight The end was at
hand. With some instinct of the
heroic, death would not find her lying
down. Desperately she struggled to
her feet and stood. balancing herself
to the wild onward rush OF the boat.
The wall of foam was close at hand.
For one second she threw out her
arms and the next moment, with a
crash which she could feel II not
hear, the boat beneath her feet was
lifted up and hurled on something
fearfully solid She was thrown
through the air like bolt from a cat
apult A wave struck her in the back
and beat her almost into ipsensibility.
She was tossed and driven half I'M
conscious over the space Of shallow
water and rolling sea upon a sandy
shore. Blindly she crawled on. The
waves seemed suddenly to have lost
their power She did not know that
she had been thrown past a barrier
reef and carried over a lagoon ana
dropped on a sea beach; that only the
most unusual and gigantic waves could
reach her. but she knew that they had
little power to harm her. And so she
crept desperately and doggedly on I'M
til she fell forward in the warm sand
and lasped into absolute and total un-
consciousness.

CONVICTS NEGRO
OF BOOZE SAIL
ATTORNEY RAMSEY. JUDGE
HUSTON AND 40. 758 TOO
Much FOR THE BLACK

Eslcy Davis was convicted in tho
police court Yesterday of violating the
new liquor ordinance. No 756 Davis
is a negro. ana according TO the tes-
.timouy Of w . Fleming, local state
enforcement officer, he was caught
behind a bar and the circumstances
We're such as to make It evident that
he had been selling booze.
Davis was fined $50 and sentenced
to 30 days in Jail No appeal has been
taken in his case as yet, and he is
now serving his jail sentence As he
has not as yet paid the fine imposed,
It is likely that his penal servitude
will be so days instead of 30.
Davis is one Of the first to he con
victed under the new ordinance. 4
conviction was secured several days
.ago, but an appeal was taken, II is
reported that as soon as Davis Is
through serving his time at the city
iail that the case may be taken up
by the county As there is some ques-
tton about the legality of the ordn-
.ance, 1t is possible that the case win
receive the attention of officials other
than those having municipal author
ity.
