Lower intsrurban rates from Papinlon

by a committee OF citizens OF Papillion
within the next week or two. A commit
tee, Il ls said. has Just been appointed
AZ Papiiilon TO wait on Arthur English
In Omaha with regard TO this point. Mr..
English was receiver of the road. and

Papihion and Ralston people maintain
that Is cents from PaDiuion to Omaha
Is too much. That is the rate charged
by the interurban line. The charge is
10 cents from Papillion 10 Ralston. An
other charge OF 10 cents is made from
Ralston to the limits OF South Omaha.
Then nickel is charged for the ride

the quarter for the whole trip from

II IL asserted by those seeking the lower
rate that under the 2-eent fare law, the

They hold that while the distance from
Paptilioa 10 the heart OF Omaha Is some
fourteen miles. as a matter OF fact the
distance from Papillion TO the city limits
OF South Omaha IL seven miles. At Z
cents per mile this would make IA eenta.

that on the Omaha a Council Bluffs

Winter rye is becoming one of
North Dakota's most important crops,
and tits well. The writer has seen
numerous fields of the grain in var
ious parts of the county, and without
exception, the rye appears in the most
perfect condition. While most of the
wheat is just peeping thru the ground,
the rye stands from a foot to eigh-
teen inches high and has begun to
joint. The crop will be ready to har-
vest by the middle Of July. 1t gets out
of the way of the hot dry weather
that generally prevails during the lat
ter part of July and August and it
furnishes our farmers with money
long before other grains have matur-
ed. Besides, it costs only about dol
lar an acre to put in this crop and the
yield is generally from thirty to forty
bushel will net the farmer more than
bushel will net the farmer more than
the ordinary crop of wheat. 1t cleans
the land and is considered one of the
best feeds for swine. BY all means
become interested in winter rye. Every
farmer ought to grow nice field of
it.

The rumor of war with Japan will
likely not amount to much. Japan has
been on the verge of bankruptcy since
the Russo-Japanese war and the Japs
ought to welcome breathing spell.
Japan was perfectly willing for the
war to end when it did, for she had
fired about her last shot, and was not
able to dictate the peace settlement
regarding Manchuria. Within six
weeks this government will be able to
lock her battleships thru the Panama
canal, thereby assembling superior
fleet on the waters of the Pacific.

A trip thru the country reveals the
fact that there are very few well
graded, good roads. Some work has
been done and there are patches of
highway that have been treated in the
right manner with split log drags,
but not enough of them to do much
good. There are far too many holes
in our highways that ought to be fill
ed. Just a little work at the right
time would do the business. So many
bridges are not provided with the
proper approaches.

ranted conclusions that in justice to
the Board Of County Commissioners,
l shall very briefly answer the same.
When the present board Of County
Commissioners and the States At

found the following conditions to ex-
list in the Office Of the county superin-
tendent:
He was employing one more field
deputy than the law allowed and two
more than was employed in any other
county of the state. The salary Of
each Of these was $4,000 per year.

1t is not generally known that the
last legislature passed law which
makes it possible for the state board
of control to order the sterilization of
hardened criminals, rapists, epilep-
tics, or those suffering from loath-
some and incurable diseases, who for
one reason or another may be sent
to the penitentiary. A very sensible
law. Too many degenerates are al
lowed to replenish the human race.

There is an increased demand for
close-in Minot property. One small
lot and block were sold last week for
$4,000, netting the owner a good
profit. The owner Of Main street

this week. Residence property is sell
ing at good figure. Rents are go
ing up steadily. Property in Minot is
worth something.

THE TRIPLES THAT COUNT.

Better farming maybe in just such
simple things as adjusting the pillow
to do the best possible work, in feed
ing stock so that not a bit of waste
follows and in carrying out plans
carefully laid. What the world needs
is not so much men who have thous-
ands to lay out in land and equipment
as farmers who know the value of de-
tails and have the will and the dis
position to work to the line.-Farm
and Fireside.

Editor McGahan, OF the Democrat,
in a rather solicitous editorial, de-
plores the fact that the insurance
companies, worth their millions of
dollars, are compelled to spend few
thousand dollars each year among the
publishers of the state for their an
nual statements. We don't presume
to know, but we'll make guess that
"Mac' didn't get any statements, for
which we are truly sorry. Be that as
it may, he shouldn't begrudge the
hundred dollars that each publisher
gets who is lucky enough to receive a
few statements to publish. The COM
panies can well afford to leave two
or three hundred dollars of their earn
ings in the state. OF course it comes
cut of the policy holder in the end but
the few extra cents that he may have
to pay is never missed. Besides about
all the money North Dakota pub
Usher earns gets back into circulation,
Immediately, if not sooner, and where
does the harm come in? And then,
too, the people are entitled to know
the exact financial condition of the
companies doing business in this state
Brother McGahan ought to be GLAD
that the boys have an opportunity to
get their hands on few thousand dol
lars of foreign money every year.

The Warren case, which is soon to
to be tried before Judge Leighton,
will resolve itself largely into !. ques.
ton of law. The question o. whether
the county superintendent has or has
not the right to use his own judgment
as to the number of times that he
shall visit the schools Of the county,
will have to be determined. Mr.. War.
rem will be shown copies Of the bills
that he turned over to the couDty and
which were paid. He will be asked
whether or not he has any personal
recollection of himself or his depu-
toes having made the trips 70: which
mileage was paid. He will undoabted-
ly merely refer to the record and say
that he presumes that the trips were
made, but that owing to the unusual
number of trips made, he can only
refresh his memory by reference to
the sworn bills. There will be l, jury,
of course, but the Independent under
stands that it is entirely impossible
for the court to direct verdict. Supt.
Warren has, without question, been
an expensive official, but in order for
the county to recover, it will be nee
essary to prove conclusively that he
drew mileage for distance not neces-
sarily and actually travelled The
case will result in one of the prettiest
legal scraps Ward county has ever
seen.

Newspapers are current hiS- tory, OF are supposed to be, and people should never object to having therein the stories of cur rent events, whether they are of absorbing interest or not. Some times people prefer to read some thing about a local man doing something trivial than to read about the events that mean the making of history at home and abroad. This is accounted for by the fact that people as rule prefer the reading of novels or anecdotes to the reading of his- tory, although there is no ques- ton about the relative benefits acquired. Tastes always differ about what is interesting or not and what is of the greatest in terest to one is passed over by another as not worth reading at all. To try to serve all tastes is the duty of newspaper, and ev- en newspapers are forced some- times to cater to the most trivial desires and to the most local" tastes. Papers cannot always De blamed for this. .--Ex.
