W. J. Cornell and W. J. Bryan will arrange the dates for their joint discus sion today. And a sorry day it will be for Brvan: he will have cause to remem ber it for many years, and anathematize the man that suggested the joint discus sion. 42,31G,-240 is the amount of the re duction of the bond' d debt for the past month. II jt dot s that kind of business compare with Cleveland's methods of loaning the surplus to the wealthy bank ing institutions without interest. The former is significantly republican, and the latter instinctively democratic. Rev. J. G. Tait is a very clever gentle- In mad and know a few things about the i tariff that our democratic friends Have not learned. He happened in at Wilson ville the other evening at a McKeighan meeting and his friends wanted a joint discussion. While Mr. McKeighan domt know very much he knew enough not to tackle Mr. Taite, he showed better judg ment than Sir. Bryan is showing in this district. Thjb Omaha World-Herald endeavors te lull suspicion by proclaiming in a loud tenor voice that "many democrats" in this and that county are going to "sup port the independent ticket this year." And young Mr. Hitchcock puts his tongue in his cheek and smiles complacently at the way he 19 bamboozling republican farmers who belong to the alliance. But perhaps they are wider awake than he imagines. State Journal. A farmer in the western part of this county, raised oyer fifteen tons of broom corn from forty acres of land, which he has disposed of at $120 per ton, making the neat sum of Si, 800, which is more than the land on which the crop was raised will sell for. And yet there are people in this county who want office so bad, that they are trying to make the farmer believe that he is the victim of all the sharks unci sharpers in Christendom and will be bankrupt if they don't send thedoleful hypocrite to office. The democratic cardidates for the legislature iu Illinois are pledging them selves against compulsory education. The party that is afraid of education, and which holds "the little white school house on the hill" as a public enemy, can never hope to govern this great, pro gressive and intelligent country. Popu lar education, be it compulsory or other wise, is one of the bulwarks of our insti tutions and will remain a prominent foundation stone of our government long after the history of the democratic ob structionists is faded out and forgotton. Three years in the state and candidate for congress. How do men born and raised in Nebraska like that sort of a dea Have we no representative citi -zenp, that egotistic interlopers must be foisted upon us? The good sense of the .i:.,:. !..- rnr-rr.-lp1 nn th fourth of uismvi. (1 the Herald will be I meuauu A twenty 1 . years' experience with the yeomanry of Nebraska has taught us u I . . i . r . to respect their udgment, and to have faith in the good sense and integrity of the people. Ok course the denials are bound to come. The democratic newspapers are engaged in declaring upon their honor that there are no tin mills to be built- in this country; that the quality of the metal found in the Black Hills is ex ceedingly inferior, and that all the talk about the immediate development of the industry will subside as soon as the elec tion is over. When it is remembered that the capitalists have been doing their best to start mills in America for years with imported tin, but have always been frozen out by the Englishmen, nobody can seriously doubt that they will go into the business with real American energy now that they have some protection. As to the statement that the Black Hills tm U not of a good quality, some eminent scientists who have tested it say that it is as good as any produced on the globe. And between the scientists and the dem ocratic editors it is not hard to decide, when there is a question-of veracity in volved. State Journal. Thk Missouri democrats are having a monkey and parrot time of it in three of their con'refrsiounl districts, which may r. mlt in the lection of three republican representative. "Let Yin fight. Pim.. Bakni-.s is one of out old and nut successful business nn p. lie is a man that would c-n ry business principles j with him to th legislative halls and j would uive 'he people the advantage oj a ripe experience. The next apportionment will make large republican ghins in Congress in spite of democratic discriminations. Some one has said thnt Providence seems tf have interfered in behalf of the North. If that is the correct theory, it is not the first time Providence has been with us. The Mississippi Constitutional Con vention has adopted a provision forbid ding lotteries and the sale of lottery tickets. This .is probably the only re publican doctrine that will receive rec ognition at the hands of that excessively democratic body. What was thought to be a small black cloud hovering over the city last ev ening, turned out to be C. W. Sherman's woolen overcoat It had just heard of the McKinley bill and was still going up at last accounts. Sherman has or tiered his linen duster padded and will wear it for an overcoat this winter. Neighbor don't worry about our L. W.Colby and "Ikey" Lansing speaking to Plattsmouth people. You have much to learn yet, and one of the things you will have an opportunity to learn is what W. J. Bryan is thought of at home, and how his masterly transcendant abil ity is appreciated by those who know him best, and Mr. Lansing will be here to help you if your intellect is not loo obtuse. The Journal says Davies hates the Mc Kinley bill and talks one way to the pub lie and another on the street. We do not believe it. Mr. Davies is squarely on the republican platform of protection to home markets and day labor and will be found at his post, in season and out urg ing the importance of republican suprem acy. He does not consort with the anti McKinleyites or the paid agents of the British Cobden club in this city, and he will be elected by a good round majori ty too. Senator Gray says that the late sess ion of Congress "was run by revolution ary methods, and as such will be notori ous in history." He means this for a criticism of the republican majority, of course; but as a matter of fact, the revo lutionary proceedings were on the dem ocratic side and seryed to prolong the session for several months vv'jen the re publicans were ready and anxious to transact the public business in an orderly and expeditious manner. Ex. Democratic hopes of carrying the next House of Representatives are based chiefly on frauds committed and pro jected. The gerrymanders in Ohio and Maryland, which have already been per petrated, are relied on to increase the democratic and reduce the republican vote so that the former will be about even with the latter, and bulldozing and false counting in the South are expected to give that party an important lead. Republican vigor and vigilance will be needed throughout the country to defeat this democratic conspiracy,--Globe Dem ocrat. An eye-witness to the affair says that a conductor on the M. P. approached W. J. Bryan on the train the other day and asked him for his puss; Bryan then ten dered the money, but the conductorsays. "Oh, no, I want your pass. What have you done with it?" Bryan, with evident embarrassment, remarked that he had no pass and paid his fare. He however ad rnitted to the bystanders that he did have one but he had turned it in since the campaign opened. An attorney for a railroad trying to dupe the farmers by paying his fare is a pretty spectacle in deed. Mr. Bryan has only been in Ne braska three years, yet he should have learned in that short time that the people of the West are intelligent ard despise hypocrisy and dcubYj dealing too thor oughly for the svecessful culmination of his superficial schemes. The anxiety shown by the World -Herald and other frothy sheets of the democratic persuasion over the standing of L. D. Richards on the prohibition question, might leadjthc unsophisticated to tliiuk that they were dying to suppoit Mr. Richards for governor, if he would only come out in violent oppo sition to the amendment. Such is not the case however, tin,? simply think they are electing Mr. Boyd by keeping the public gaze away from the Omaha dealer in futures, as he will not bear a close inspection. He has been tested in Chicago, and failed to grade even No. 3 but was labelled rejected. And he will be rejected again in a political way this fall; the World-Herald style of cam paign amounts to nothing more than harmless amusement for its brain-weary editorial force. A COMPARISON. W. J. Bryan is winning many friends J wherever lie talks. His theme is tariff reform and the people are everywhere ready to listen. The farmers of Nebras ka are yetting tired of paying two prices tor whiit they buy and getting half price for what they have to sell, ami will vote f,.r a man who will do what he can to change the order of thinge. The Above from the Filley Farmer, a lean, straight republican paper, is cer tainly encoumyicg and complimentary. Mr. Bryan is a man of the people, ami will represent their interests in congress. Lincoln Herald . The Democrat will support Hon. L. D. Richards for Governor iu preference to J. E. Boyd for the following reason: -When men were needed to defend the life of the nation, L. D. Richards, al though but a boy in years, shouldered a musket and marched to the front and did valiant manly service in the ranks. Will some one please tell what Boyd and Bear were doing about this timeJ0 If Jim E. Boyd, with his 'barrel' and his unblushing record, is the best the demo cratic party has to offer the people, then the party should be buried out of sight at the ballot box. As to Dr. Bear, he is an excellent physician, an amiable gentleman, but when the emblem of lib erty and equality was trailed in the dust by traitors, Dr. Bear assisted them. He wore the gray uniform of a confederate officer. Gallant Tom Majors wore the Union blue. The war is over and we are not in sympathy with the bloody 6hirt brigade; but when we march to the ball"t box we prefer blue to gray. We prefer the stars and stripes to :he stars and bars; and for music, please excue u, but we prefer the Red, White and Blue to Dixie. The above from the Niobrara Demo crat, a clean, srtaight democratic paper is certainly complinv ntary and encour aging. Mr. Bryan would undoubtedly repri sent in congress the same interosts for which Bear fought while assisting traitors to "trail in the dust the emblem of liberty and equality." So also would he favor those who wore the gray under the stars and bars in preference to the boys in blue who fought under the stars and 6tripes. Nebraska is not yet ready to give up the state to Dixie sympath izers or to the Cobden club. Auburn Post. SPAIN ICOMES TO TiME. The cablegrams from Europe announce the fact that the Spanish government intends to open negotiations with the United States for reciprocal concessions of duty on Cuban and American pro ducts. It has instructed its agents abroad to notify it of any measures taken by foreign governments in respect to the McKinley tariff. The cabinet has discussed the McKinley tariff and has derided to suspend the application of the new Cuban tariff un til a satisfactory reply is received from the United States to representations which the Spanish minister is expected to make. The scheme of placing an import tax on what we purchase of Cuba as well as a duty on what we sell them will have to be stopped; the McKinley bill is already having a good effect, and before the next election rolls around you will find dem ocrats denying that they ever opposed the McKinley bill. Bond redemption in September cut down the4j's to $24,000,000 and the 4's $18,000,000. or 42,000,000 in all that month. This debt reduction was, of course, far bpyond the average for a period of that length. It was due chief ly to the exigencies of business. Money was 'tight,' and to relieve the market and ward off the danger of a financial disaster the Secretary of the Treasury made heavy bond purchases and thus threw large sums of money into trade channels. The democratic press of the west were loud in their desire for silver legislation, they got it at the hands of republicans, nearly every democratic member of the senate and house opposing the measure, yet these same insincere, hypocritical sheets prate about the democratic party being the friend of the west, and that re publicanism has its home east of the Al leghany's. Away with such duplicity, the common people read too much about public affairs to be caught with such ap. parent moonshine. Western packing interests for the year ending October 1st show a gratify ing increase, while eastern points show quite a falling off. Omaha keeps third place with half a million hogs to spare. The business at Omaha for the year was 801,000 head as against 500,000 head for the corresponding period last year. A gain of 235,000, which is certainly a matter that the whole state may be justly proud of. A Leading Canadian journal frankly and correctly remarks that "in the Mc Kinley bill the Americans have simply minded their own business." Is not that after all, the only true philosophy of statesmanship? Senator Paddock evidently thinks he has distinguished himself. In our hum ble opinion it might more properly be written, extinguished. Money to loan on farms in amounts of S300 to S5C00 at 6 1-2 to 7 1 - per cent. Interest payable once a jear.
