The Lincoln Coun ty News, the successor to The Lincoln Journal, announces in its issue of Tuesday that, after July 1st., the subscription price of The News will be raised from $1.00 per year to $1.50. Editor Fair proceeds to explain that this step is rendered necessary by reason of the increased cost of material paper, ink, flabor, etc. Other papers' in the State have recently made similar an nouncements. The time has come when a first-class semi weekly newspaper cannot be published for less than $1.50 a year and keep ont of the sheriff's hands. Brother Fair makes a plain and conyiucing statement to his readers and we believe the good people of Lincoln will stay with him in increased numbers even at the advanced price. He is giving his sub scribers their money's worth. dis- Here is what Editor William J. Bryan of The Commoner has to say of John D. Rockefeller's big gift to the educational board it is sensible and to the point, about the best comment on the subject we have seen: "The sum of $32,000,000 must be enormous; indeed, it is so great that the minds of men cannot compre hend it. But with, all of its immens ity, it ought not to be large enough to cover me multitude 01 sins tor which the man who gives it to the 'cause of education' is responsible, and with all its power it ought not to be strong enough to destroy the liv ing fact that civilization will have failed whenever vice can be trans- bv button of money, and the habitual law-breaker is lost sight of in the lionized hero because he has poured -"hit the laps of educators part of the enormous sums of gold he has taken from a people whose laws he has brazenly defied and whose substance he has systematically plundered." This is indeed a mercenary age and Americans are often ac cused of being only graft-grab- 1. a. pers ana aouar-nunters but we do not believe that, had the gift been twice or even ten times as large as it was, it would be suf ficient to blind the great mass of right-thinking men and women of the country to the faults of the giver and the great corporation of which he is the head. With all the notoriety, gush and slop-overing which Rockefeller has had heaped up- show d behavior. on him on account of this gift to the cause of education, we are candidly of the opinion that, In the eyes of the best people of the country, he is less of a hero and more of a greedy, grinding, , grasping bribe-giver was before.

We recommend that a banging lamp be hung in the hall; we also respectfully recom mend that a piece of tin, 4 by 6 feet, be put under the stove as it is dangerous as it now stands We also recommend, that at small cost, the small houses in the yard can be heated from the furnace in the main build ing, taking less wood and giving better service. We also visited the county jail and found everything in good shape, the prisoners in good spirits and with nothing to complain of "We visited the clerk's and register's offices and found the recoras well and neatly kept and in good condition.
