New York Apple Market.

New York. Dec. 26.-With receipts
for the first half OF this week of $780,
G54 bbls., against Il. .579 for the same
period last week and 27,172 last
year, and total receipts for the sea-
son (Sept. 1-Dec ~ of 1857. .492
bbls.. against 974,916, with exports
of 3S9,S2S against 2S9,747 last year,
the apple market shows a better tone
this week with a tendency to higher
prices. Trade was quiet, but moder-
ate receipts prevented any break.
Most of the holiday buying was done
last week, although there was a
sprnllling throughout the present
week. Holiday buyers take only
fancy goods and are paying the price.
Fancy cold storage Greetings have
brought $4.50ft $50; fancy Bald

There are not any more barreled
goods in storage but the surplus is in
boxed goods. Apple operators say the
movement the past two weeks has
been heavy and January reports will
cause general surprise. They say
that the generally low price which
holders are willing to accept has done
more to reduce the surplus than any
other cause. one upstate operator
who usually sells 20 25 cars for the
holiday reports sales of 2S cars last
week and the same number this week.

slow. Better fancy fruit for the holi-
day trade was never seen in this mar
liet. and. the low prices at which this
is held have done much to stimulate
trading this week.

MILLION DOLLARS WORTH

New York. n. Y, Dec. 26.-More
than a million dollars worth of auto
mobiles have been stolen in New
York during the last five years, and
the police are said to be almost pow

Less than half the number stolen

detectives to run down the robbers.
1t is believed that the cars were stol-

1t is certainly gratifying to gather
from that illuminating journal Of
civilization" otherwise known as
Harpers Weekly, information about
Nebraska's unknown resources of
which few people right here have
even an inkling.
Nebraska possesses extraordinary de-
poslts of pumice. Practically the whole
state is overlald by natural deposits Of
this substance, In all stages Of consollda-
tion. from fairly solid rock to the finest
dust, PumIee is "a volcanic product, and
It's presence In Such large quantities in
Nebraska and some adjoining states Is
taken to be evidence Of former volcanic
activity In that region, II IS produced by
the rapid expansion OF gases in lava, due
to sudden release of pressure, which
either forms very light porous rock or
may completely shatter the lava into
dust, In which state 1t may be Transported
great distances by wind and deposited In
drifts
OF course, il the whole state Of
Nebraska Is overlaid by natural de-
posits Of pumice, which can be con-
verted into profitable commercial
uses, we will not be particular about
the location of the extinct volcanoes
from which the substance was
erupted nor inquire too closely how
far 1t has been transported by the
winds before taking up permanent
abode on our prairies, nor even why
while making its aerial trip the
pumice decided to stop here rather
than 80 on further. What we do
know, however, beyond dispute is
that Nebraska pumice is chasing
dirt the world around.

Vindication.

The unanimous decision of the
Nebraska supreme court, affirming
the unanimous decision of the three
district judges in Lancaster county,
that the places for republican pres
idential electors on the official bal
lot belong to the Taft men and not
to the Roosevelt men, who were try
ing to he'd possession of them under
false labels. is both triumph for
honesty and decency in politics and
a vindication of our election laws.
BY this decision the bull moosers
are frustrated in their deliberate at
tempt, aided and abetted by disloyal
confederates among the republicans,
to seize and use the machinery Of
the republican party against the re-
publican standard bearers and to
steal all straight party votes cast for
Taft and count them for Roosevelt.
1t is. gratifying to know that the
republicans of Nebraska have right
In law, as they have in morals, to
vote for their candidates for presi
dent and vice president as repub-
llcans, and that the voters of party
cannot be wrongfully deprived Of
this right no matter how many or
how few in number they may be.
With all the republican candi-
dates for presidential elector stand
ing for the national republican
ticket, it becomes the duty of Ne
braska republicans who wish to per-
petuate their party and uphold the
principles and policies embodied in
the republican national platform
and typified in the republican stand
ard bearers, to cast their votes for
these republican electors, leaving it
to the third termers, with avowed
purpose to destroy the republican
party, to vote their own bull moose
ticket.
incidentally and irrespective Of
the result of the election, credit is
due TO the militant republicans who
have fought this fight for republic
anism from the start, and the law
yers, Hon. John L. Webster, A. w.
'Jefferis and their associates, who
prepared and presented the legal
aspects Of the case.

After the Investigation, whata

After the Investigation, WhatR
1t will not be denied that the sem
ate committee investigating cam
paign funds has brought to light a
most formidable array of important
facts, revealing, not alone total
amounts, but individual sums with
the names of contributors, In some
notable cases, indeed, has been, di-
yulged the modus operandi of enlist
ing certain gentlemen with plethoric
purses In the respective causes: the
delicate details of approach and per-
suasion and finally of the touching
process OF separation, itself.
All this has been both entertaining
and instructive. But is that all?
Friendships have been sundered since
this inquiry began. bitterness and
acrimony have been engendered. Men
have hurled harsh names at each
other, breathed out anathemas, ut
tered determinations. 1t has been a
tense period in our politics. Lines Of
feeling have been stretched taut.
Now, after the investigation is
over, what? What have we probed
into all these state secrets for? Are
we going to abolish the old way OF
financing campaigns II so, with
what as a substitute? Or shall we
adopt the suggestion of one sweet
dreamer and abolish campaigns al
together leaving the voter to exercise
his own uninstructed judgment?
No, we shall not do that in demo-
cracy stressing the Importance OF
popular education as ours does,
We may find an improved method OF
financing campaigns, but we shall
not do so at the cost of dispensing
with the hustings That is an Ameri.
can institution sure to survive all
these reforms.

Taft men are expected to support every

his followers. A surprise is in store for
certain people.
Tecumseh Chieftain: American farmers
will not be party to any scheme Tor the
defeat of an administration which has
heen so pre-eminently an era of agricul-
tural prosperity. Any change from
reriod so satisfactory to the farming class
would be fraught with danger and the
farmer Is too wise business man to
adopt any policy which would make pos
slble a change, since continuance Of the
Taft administration will mean contin-
ued participation by the American farmer
in the general prosperity Of the nation.

nape rear up on his pedal extremities and
declare that any man who went come
over to the bull moose party is not pro-
gressive? Most of the leaders In the
democratic party were shouldering arms
for the progressive cause when some OF
these other fellows were merely serving
as wet nurses to political microbe with
out form or substance. There are thou
sands of democrats and thousands OF re-
publicans who are as honestly progressive
as any man with set of antlers sprout-
ing. from his shoulders.
Central City Nonpareil: The decision
of the Roosevelt electors to remain on

Welt as we'll as the state ticket several
thousand votes. Taft men. incensed at
what they believe to be theft Of their

bers. This is not guess but con-
clusion based on facts gained in a tour
of much OF the state. Wilson Is Roose-
velt's real opponent In Nebraska and
IL looks to us as like sheer idiooy to deiib-'
erately give the former q large block Of
votes. II the electors think they are
serving Roosevelt's interests they are
making q sad mistake.
