GOVERNOR NAMES
SEPTEMBER II AS
CONSTITUTIONS
Asks People of State to
Give Thought to
Principles.

Lincoln, Sept. 1O.-Wednesday,
September II, is to be "Constitu
ton day" in Nebraska, by virtue of
proclamation which has been is
sued from the governors Office, and
the people of the state are asked to
give thought on that day to the
principles of American self-govern-
nent.
The document says:
The ability of people to govern
themselves depends first upon
knowledge of the laws by which
they are to be governed Thus,
knowledge becomes a prerequisite
to good citizenship.
Law of the Land.
"The constitution is the funda-
mental law of the land. 1t compre-
bends the nations ideals and fore
casts the national future. 1t de-
fines the scope-ef government and
guarantees the rights of freedom to
those who act within its scope. 1t
is the great law of liberty in which
an observance of the Golden Rule
becomes the central purpose of gov
crnment
Many talk of the constitution,
but few know what it contains. 1t
is quite natural, then, that there
are violations of this law, and it is
not surprising that there are those
who do not have a proper apprecia-
ton of the principles that make it
vital.
Proud of Record.
Ours is young nation, the
youngest and yet tine most power
full of all the nations of the world.
We may we'll be proud of our ma
tional record, but we cannot afford
10 depart from the paths that have
led us into this happy state. With
the world about us in a condition
of general unrest and disorder, this
is good time to study the lessons
of the past. Every good citizen
should be fully informed regarding
the principles enunciated in the con-
Stitution. 1t has served us we'll for
nearly century and half, and its
potency remains unimpaired.
therefore, in order that atten-
ton may be directed to this subject,
hereby designate September II,
1919, as Constitution day, to be OBJ
served throughout the state by a
careful study of the fundamental
law of the land The home, the Of
flee, the shop, the platform, the pull
pit, the press, the schoolroom and
the public meeting place should
constitute statewide forum in
which every individual, without re-
gard to class, race, color, sex or any
condition whatsoever, will become
imbued with the knowledge and the
inspiration of the principles of free
government "of, for and by the
people"

Farmer Wants Curb
Placed Upon Bears
in the Corn Market

Washington, Sept. 1o.-(Special
Telegram. )-Representative Jefferis
has hard nut to crack growing out
OF telegram received from Charles
Cameron of Herman, Neb., one of
the largest farmers in the Second
district. Mr.. Cameron, on behalf
of the farmers of his immediate vi
cinity, requests that immediate &C
ton be taken to prevent the big
spectators in Chicago and New
York forcing the price of corn any
lower than present prices.
Within the last 80 days, he says,
speculation by big interests who are
not producers has forced the price
of corn down nearly 40 cents bush
ell, causing enormous losses to the
farmers.
1--WE will be compelled to pay as
high as 81 per day for farm labor
to harvest our corn and some action
should be taken by congress to save
US from further loss" Mr.. Cameron
says.
Approaching the conditions under
which the farmers are laboring, Mr..
Jefferis is lying awake nights trying
to solve the intricate problem.

Murray"
He lived in Omaha two years, she
alleges. He was a security sales
man for the Home Security Co,
Sioux City, Ia. and is said to have
earned $4,000 a year.
This apparently is borne out by
the style in which they lived at the
exclusive and expensive St. Regis
apartment. 6l7 South Thirty-second
street. The apartment was found
splendidly furnished. The attorneys
today stated in court that the furni-
ture is easily worth $1,000.
To Open Safety Box.
Judge Sears made temporary
order, giving Mrs. Nudge SIS a
month, besides suit money. He ap-
pointed Sheriff Clark to open the
safety deposit box which Mr.. Nudge
has in the United States National
bank, and to~take charge of what
ever securities, money and waltz
ables are there and hold them until
the further order of the court.
On August 10, just after Mrs,
Mudge's arrival here and the flight
of her husband and Miss Reeme, the
district court granted an injunction
to prevent Mr.. Nudge from open
ing the box or taking away any of
his other property in Omaha.
Mrs. Mudge's suit is also directed
against the Updike Grain Co., from
which firm, she alleges, money is
due to Mr.. Nudge.

tiers in the luxurious St. Regis
apartments. One of these papers is
a typewriter will and breathes the
most intense love for the girl who
was living with him at the St. Regis
where they went by the name of
Mr.. and Mrs. Don Wallace.
"She Reigns Supreme"
The will was written at McPher-
son, Kan, Miss Reeme's home. 1t
is dated July Is, 1915, and reads as
follows:

body and all my personal effects
given absolutely to Miss Frances

II am prompted to do this by the
fact that the lady referred to reigns
supreme in my heart and | have

yond the grave.-Clifford c. Nudge"
Another memorandum, dated at

as follows:

lowing name possible and God
knows it will look mighty good to
me:

to Miss Reeme's mother, reads
thus:
Mother Gave Girl to Him.

have given me. She grows sweeter
to me every day and | shall love
her more and more all my life. |

COLLEGES WORRIED OVER
LOW WAGE FOR TEACHERS
Educational Institutions Unable to
Hold Professors Because OF
Too Small Pay.

With the Wisconsin Colleges Asso-
plans for statewide campaign for
funds for the smaller colleges of the
state, the following comment from the
New York World is interesting:
HAS the war given new status to
college professors? Popular opinion
of their practical abilities had hereto
fore contained an element of scepti-
cism, which is now pretty generally
dispelled by the exhibition of COM
petence in many fields Of service out
side of their class-rooms. In the
words of former President Strayer of
the National Education Association,
the war has actually created mar
ket for college professors. Go OVER
the lists of professors and administra-
tive officers and you will find some of
achievements of the war.
"The effect is inevitably to inspire a
competition which the colleges must
meet through larger salaries If they
of the first rank. Men of superior en-
dowments whose ambition was limited
to university honors have matched
minds with men in other pursuits in
the common service of their country,
and the result has been to prove their
powers under conditions which natur-
ally dispose them to keep on in the
larger field. One department at Co
lumbia University has lost dozen
good men to positions with business or
semi-public concerns.
Love of their work will always tend
to turn the scale toward the college
in men who possess the teaching
spirit But colleges must pay profess
sors adequate salaries If they are to
keep their faculties filled with CON-
petent men who know that there is a.
more remunerative market for their
talent in the business world"
