A.fter tho people lmvo spoken next November wo will
have heard the last of Mickey "Our Man Mickey."
The glad tidings como from Omaha that Dave Mercer's
star has set that this servile tool of corporation greed is
destined to never again take his scat in congress to misrep
resent the people of this great commonwealth. Tho ever
lasting glory and credit for this certain-to-be-achieved re
sult will belong to organized labor.
Joseph Fauu'iui.d, of Minatarc, has a column in the
Scottsbluff Republican in which he clumsily undertakes to
explain why tho farmers of tho Platte valley should sup
port Kiukaid and turn down Barry. The Bayard .Tran
script copies and endorses the article, as might have been ex
pected, regardless of its absurdity. Let us think back
ward a moment, hi years gone by an individual by that
name of Fairfield, hailing from that same territory, came
to attend the races at Alliance, and incidentally to deal
faro and manipulate other skin game devices. Wonder if
it is the same individual ? Evidently it is, because this one
is engageu in tlie samo disreputable we might say crimi
nal practice of buncoing the unwary.
The International Typographical Union asks for the
election of United States senators by direct vote of the peo
ple. Printers arc always right.
Can You Do It, Old Soldiers?
The subsidized press of this district and wc uso the
word understanding!- tell us that General Patrick H.
Barry is already beaten in his race for congressional hon
ors ; that Moses P. Kinkaid is as certain of being elected as
if the people had already spoken. Knowingly, and with no
other motive but to deceive, they indulge in misrepresenta
tion. They tell us, for instanco, that General Harry was
born in 1834, attempting thus to create tho impression that
the heroic old soldier is too old to send to congress that
ho has outlived his usefulness and 1b, in fact, in his dotage.
Tho truth is General Barry was born in '44,' and is as halo
and hearty, physically, as the average man ten years his
junior, with n mind as clear and bright nnd strong as ever
aided in the guidance of our great Bhip of state. How well
docs every man who is acquainted with General Barry
know this to bo true. But carried away with party suc
cess, the receipt of pecuniary assistance and the ppsitivo
assurance of more, tho men who control tho columns of tho
republican newspapers ol this district will stop at nothing in
order to secure the success of tho man who represents cor
poration greed. They tell us that the old veterans will not
support General Barry, and to prove their assertion true,
quote some "old soldier" who wears the insignia of G. A.
R. membership, but who in truth bore scant part in tho
terrible struggle to prevent tho dismemberment of the
union. Well they know that all this is false, but like tho
drowning man who grabs at 'a straw, they hope to avert
the death political death of their candidate. But they
reckon without their hosts. What real defender of an in
separable union can grasp General Barry's hand, look into
that scarred face and lot his eye rest upon that empty sleeve,
without feeling his blood tingle, and without experiencing
a sense of pride of comradeship, of admiration for this
heroic brother whose person tells how grandly and heroically
ho acted out his part in that memorable and terrible time
when brother fought against brother, each feeling that his
cause was holy ? Let the Herald tell you something, old
soldiers of Nebraska. Let it tell you how Patrick H. Barry
received those facial scars. It was on the 12th of May,
1864, at tho battle of Spottsylvania Court House, Virginia,
when General Barry's regiment had charged and been re
pulsed, and the dead and dying were all around and about
the stubbornly retreating living. Finally they made a
stand, the enemy was checked and the tide was turned.
Exploding shells had started a forest fire, in the midst of
which lay the wounded boys in blue. Volunteers were
called for to attempt their rescue. Among the first to re
spond was young Barry. Gallantly and with that courage
that belongs only to tho born hero, the boy fought his
way through smoke and flame till he reached' a fallen com
rade. Gathering the dying soldier in his arms young
Barry started on his perilous backward trip bearing his
precious burden. The awful flame had reached into the
limbs of the trees, but through it went the living and the
dying. Patrick H. Barry succeeded, and as he laid his
comrade down, out of the reach of the cruel flames, death
mercifully ended his suffering. But at what a fearful cost
to the rescuer I His life had almost been the sacrifice.
The skin was burned from his neck and face, and writhing
in agony and tottering and exhausted from his superhuman
effort, proud comrades bore him to a place of rest. And
this is the man this is the hero that we arc told is not
competent, is not worthy, is too old to represent us in the
halls of congress. Who are wo asked to honor instead ?
Moses P. Kinkaid, a mediocre lawyer, chronic office-seeker,
corporation servitor and smooth-tongued apologist for
greedy, unprincipled monopolists. Can you do it, old Sol
diers ? Can you stultify yourselves ? Not in a thousand
years could you be guilty of such treachery ! , And right
well the Herald knows it.

The "big guns" of tho g. o. p. aggregation of falsifiers
are being turned loose in every Btato of the union and com
manded to go forth and speak as they have never spoken
before, to avert an impending calamity that threatens the
source of supply of their corruption fund. They see plainly
the setting in of a tide that threatens to engulf the. trusts ;
that the election of a democratic congress this fall is among
tho possibilities, and they know that such an event would
mean interference with an unholy tariff law that is alone
responsible for tho combination of capital in the interests of
tho classes and to the detriment of tho masses responsible
for the trusts that curse this fair land today, and creates
conditions favorable for the organization of countless thon
sands more. The republican party needs to send fourth its
most eloquent speakers, for if ever there was a time when
the people were being awakened to an unjust discrimination
against them it is now.
The question to be settled next November is whether
the people or tho railroads are to control. Who can doubt
the manner of its settlement ?

What did Moses of old do ? He smote tho rock, in
stead of speaking to it, as he had been directed o do, in
consequence of which he was denied the privilege of ever
entering the promised land. What has our Moses done ?
He has disgusted the people by his insatiable greed for
political preferment, and as sure as they have the power
.the people will forbid him to enter through the enchanting
gates f the nation's capital. You cannot hope to escape
the fate of your ancient ancestor, Moses P. Haven't you
heard of the scriptural saying that the sins of the father
shall be visited upon the son, even unto the thousandth
and two southandtu generations ?

Night 'Phono 37,
Not long since, at a largely attended gathering of the
butchers of the country, a resolution was passed demand
ing the abolition of the tariff on cattle and meat, knowing
full well that such abolition would remove tlie props that
sustain the beef trust. But republican speakers rush to
the rescue of their foundling and tell us that this would
mean the dumping upon the country of a surplus of cattle
from Mexico and all South America in such numbers as to
ruin the farmers the small stockgrow ers-but would not
affect the packers, who are sufficiently strong to still main
tain present prices and continue to rob the consumer.
Then if there be truth in such logic there is no escape for
'us. We are bound hand and foot arc as helpless as the
slaves of aute-bellum days. The grip of the slave owner
was loosened, and so may that of tho packer be shaken off
when the people become sufficiently aroused, by the same
process, if need be. t
Do you hear the glad hosannas reverberating from every
nookaad corner of Nebraska ? Do you know what their
import ?. Do you catch the words, " 'Twill beThomspon 1 "

Referring to the proposed visit to this country of the
Boer generals, Dewet, Botha, and Delarey, the Bee says
that tho welcome which awaits them will have more than a
personal significance, "it will honor the cause for which
they fought not less than their patriotic devotion and
heroism." Yes, these heroes will be warmly welcomed,
but the time for "honoring the cause for. which they fought"
Ihasgoneby. That time was when the struggle was on.
Had the people, instead of an unpatriotic, monopolistic
gang of imperialists been in control of affairs in this country,
.England would not today be smacking her blood-thirsty,
gluttonous chops in gleeful anticipation of the feast that is
in sight, and the life of two young and promising republics
would not have been ruthlessly crushed out. In the wel
come to be extended to these South African heroes, no man
who endorsed the attitude of this government toward them
during their heroic struggle should be permitted to partici
pate. But theso are the very fellows, from the head of the
government down, who will bo fiyst to extend their hypp
critical hands, and shout themselves hoarso in honor of
men whom they holped to defeat, and principles they aided
in trampling under foot.
