SATUKDAY, MARCH 17, 1888.
Sullivau is undoubtedly the best
prize fighter now following the pro
fession; but he was unable to whip
Mitchell, the cricket, in a three
hours effort. The whole affair was
a hippodrome.
A Dakota blizzard visited New
York and several eastern states on
Monday. They made a great hoodo
about the affair, and yet it was only
half a storm. When those tender
New Yorkers set a whole Dakota
- -
blizzard they will make Rome howl.
The old Kaiser Wilhelm died
slowly. Several enterprising news
papers noted for giving the news in
advance of all others, got left by
reason of the old man's tenacity of
life. The Omaha World published
his obituary two davs before his
death.
uIt is now admitted that the pres-
ident s messasre was a serious
mistake."
The above from the North Platte
Tribune is a fair sample of republi
can comments on the President s
niessasre. Will the Tki-
bune be so kind as to inform its
readers who it is that admits that
"the message was a serious mistake."
Broken Bow Statesman.
If the above appeared in The
Tbibuxe it was probably a clipping
that inadvertantly slipped in on the
first or fourth pages. It was not
an editorial item. This editor does
not believe there was any mistake
in Cleveland's message. But he
does believe that a great many
Democrats think it was a mistake,
and he knows that it has made them
awful sick. They don't know what
to do. They know it is defeat to
advocate Cleveland's free trade
theories, and yet their party is
placed in such a position that they
must take Cleveland with all his re
pugnant ideas. There is no other
northern man who will satisfy the
South, and without a satisfied South
their name is Dennis. Long ex
perience has accustomed the Demo
cratic stomach to digesting crow
with comparative ease, but this frefe
trade plank is a straw that makes
them. tired and weary. They have no
heart for the work. The young
Democracy had remounced and
thought they had got rid of all of
the old ''time-honored principles,"
.and their ditfust can he imagined
