Nebraska's Tax Roll.

According to the figures furnished from the
taxing board at the state house, the total wealth
OF Nebraska foots up TO almost two and one-half
billions OF dollars. This total is probably not
very far under the actual wealth OF the state,
but II IL not very impressively set forth. Mere
higness Of figures is not especially desirable, yet
even normal modesty will warrant the truth be-
Ing told and the world is not aware OF our state
habit OF dividing possessions by five in order
20 obtain basis for the tax levy. For this reR-
con the array OF figures published is likely 10
give distorted impression OF the true situation
in Nebraska. For example, Il will be rather EN-
tarrassing TO have strangers think We possess
only 100000 worth Of household goods for
the accommodation OF a million and quarter OF
well-housed inhabitants. Nor is Il likely that
the roll sets forth the exact conditions regards
any division OF our wealth. but so long the
present method prevails, long viii certain
discrepancies and inequalities exist. The diff
cult problem OF deyslng q satisfactory method

SCHOOL TIME.

The season has come when 'tha
bare foot boy with cheeks of tan
must turn his thoughts to other things
than fishing and swimming. and scout
ing light hearted and free over the
hills and through the woods. The
school bell is calling the boys and
girls to come gather up their books
and pads and pencils states and lunch
baskets and report for duty. Young
men and young women hear the call
as well. and reluctantly bid farewell
to campfires and tents, mountains and
seashore Refreshed and rested they
take up again the studies and duties
like young soldiers training for the
battle Of life.
Here comes the time for parental
guidance and insistancy. The father
and mother who are true to their
charge will insist that their children
go to school. Time goes on wings and
childhood and youth are but short
time to prepare for life's responsible
tiles, and the parent who does not
urge the necessity of an education is
failing in duty to his child.
This is why we need the help of the
laws of the State to compel parents to
make their children go to school. The
South has at last awakened to her
duty in making compulsory education
laws in many states. And it is hoped
that in the next generation there will
be no grown men and women who sign
their names by making cross mark
as. some of the illiterate do in this
day and time.
This is indeed the day of child study.
Everything is done for their benefit.
Some of the best thinkers of the worlr
are studying and devising plans for
the better rearing and teaching OF
icapped when they reach maturity,
The school house is made as beautiful
and attractive as possible. The COM
fort and health of the children is first
consideration. Such stories as David
Copperfeld or Nicholas Nickleby
would scarcely be written in one day
The hard time schooling of those un-
fortunate lads is very different from
the patiently taught children in the
modern school room. Lessons too are
attractive and the subjects brought
down to point of contact with the
young mind thereby making it easier
to grasp and retain the facts. Thou
sand of young Americans next week
will be gathered in the school rooms
al over the country. How great is tn
teachers responsibility who plants the
seeds of knowledge in these eager
young brains.

He is, indeed too great an asset for

placed at a critical time like this,
when more than half the world has
gone away. The President is not con-

appears interested only in protecting

are bound to win, because they are
