Nebraska newspapers have published a report that Ft, Niobrara is to be abandoned by the war department. Congressman Klnkuid says the report Is Incorrect. The maneuvers may not be held there this year, yet this Is not settled; but next year, in all probability, the sum nier encampment will be pitched upon the beautirul slopes of Ft. Niobrara. The department this yenr is lavishing its money uiHn Ft.

Robinson and old Ft. Omaha. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been set aside for the Improvement of these historic plnces, because the needs of the service de mand It. The department officials are expecting good results from the new Signal Corps Training school at Omaha, where every facility has been provided for teaching the troops how to use the many devices for signalling Intelligence In time of war. The latest addition is a post exchange building to cost nearly $25,000.

Hlnshaw's Attitude Approved. Congressman Hlnshaw hns done a great deal of work this session In the House committee on commerce, before which bills to subsidise a merchant marine have been considered most earnestly. Ills speech on the subject has attracted some attention among his constituents, many of whom have written to him endorsing his attitude In regard to the question. They do not see the force of the argument which the late Senator Hanna and others of the maritime states made In favoring a large appropriation to help build up a merchant marine by which American exports may be csrrled In American bottoms. The people of the Interior slates generally take that view of the rase, and for that reason the bills pending In both Houses of Congress languish with Httls or no prospect of enactment North Plstts.
