THE Louisville (Ky.) Evening Post
(dem.) objects to Mr. Bryan's utter
ances concerning the anti-Gcebel
movement among the Ken tucks' dem
ocrats.and says: "Has not Mr. Bryan,
in attempting t, instruct on issues
about which he confesses he is not in
formed, acted unwisely and indiscreet
ly, and precipitately. H'sbest friends
in Kentucky feel that he has so acted,
and instead oi endorsing Mr. Goebel
they intend to apply to the situation
reasoning from Mr. Bryan's Chicago
speech, and to put a t ew ticket in the
field, and to follow it foarlossiy t de
feat or to a triumphant victory."
Thkse rurn-rs of attempts to get up
anti-American combinations among
the continental European nations 'fur
nish a fine tribute to the growing in
fluence of the United States in the
world's affairs, says the Globo-Democrat.
But thore will be no combina
tions. There is no especial incentive
for any nation to take a position hos
tile to this country. There is no de
sire in the United States to interfere
in the slightest degree in Jviropoan
affairs. American influence in Asi
atic politics will necessarily be much
greater thau it ever hss boon up to
this time, but it is not like1' to bo ex
erted in a way to cause war. The
Philippines will make this country an
Asiatic as well as an American power,
but the United St.ites' policy on the
other side of the Pacific, as on this
side, will make for peace.
WHAT?
The Conservative has again and
again asked: What has Bryan accom
plished, what has Senator Allen
brought about, what did Kt-tn evolve,
when uid Maxwell originate, where
did, McKeighan. demonstrate and what
usefulness has Holcomb or D. Clem
Deaver established for the common
wealth of Nebraska?
Have its citizens been made prosper

seeking offices not for honor, "but for

When did Allen bring in capital by
voice, deed or effort of hia own or his
kinsfolk for the material development
of Nebraska? Let the people, whose
votes fusionists seek, know when, where
and how the doctrines of calamity, de
preciation of land yalues and land
products, which have been howled for
eight years through Nebraska have

ABOUT TIIK STKFKT FA I It.
The Tribune wants to join with The News
and help awaken the old town to the realization
that it is high time lor the citizens to be doing
something. The project of holding a street fair
is the most sensible thing we know of at the
present time, and it should by all means be
pushed to a successful termination. The old
idea of holding a county fair is a thing of the
past, and it is not likely that any attempt what
ever will be made by the agricultural society in
that line this year. Street fairs are a novelty
and if Plattsmouth should get one up it would at
tract a crowd of visitors to the City the like of
which has not been here in many years Platts
mouth Tribune.
Th'-re are a number of people be
coming interested in the project of
holding a street fa:r in this city, and
the only thing that is lacking is some
one who has influence to start it go
ing. There is no qui 6tion but that it
would he a fine thing for the business
men and the citizens at large. People
who have attended fairs of this nature
are loud in their praise of them. It
gives each business man an equal
show, as the crowds are kept on the
streets constantly. If the business

vide somo sort of amusement occasion

could be brought un.

productive section of the country. The
Burlington has gathered information
which leads it to believe that this
year's crop will far exceed that of any
former banner s?nson, and almost
double that of any former average
year. While the reports from all
parts of the belt, which covers Ne

that Nebraska will make the best sec

be considerable wheat marketed and
an unusually large crop of the other
small grains. The alfalfa output
promises to be'nnusually large."

Catarrh.
Catarrh is one of tho most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid of.
There is but ono way to curoil
The disease is in the blood, and all tno
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe
cific cures Catarrh jK'rnmnontly, for it i
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.
Mr. 15. P. McAllister, of Itarrodsburg,
Ky., h:ul Catarrh for years. He writes:
"I could nee no Improvement whatever,
though I was constantly treated with hprnyit

' "Finally It was
brought to my notice
that Catarrh w as a Mood
disease, and afn-r think

Hly that can reach th disease and cn;e It."
To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Sw ift's
Specific is a real blood remedy, and
cures obstinate, deep-seated diseases,
which other remedies have no effect
whatever upon. It promptly reaches
Catarrh, and never fails to cure even the
most aggravated cases.
