PERHAPS our "popped" republican
friend will act upon the following sug-
jestlon from the JNeorasica cnzzira:
"If Mr. Bryan would call off his fool
newspaper friends who give his horn a

do himself good and the public a great
favor. People generally uo not look
upon him as supernatural nor yet as a

nonotony gets monotonous.

that he firmly believes that after the

Mpitv will bless the people of the

TnE Boy's Junior HUtory class tak
ing up the cigarette problem is practi
cal. Boys, to refrain from smoking
must rise above their surroundings.
They must do better than their broth
ers and fathers, whose example they
are naturally disposed to follow.
They do not have the funds at their
disposal to pu-chase pipes and tobacco
or cigars, so they use something
cheaper but more injurious. Fathers
do not want.their boys to smcko but
they are unwilling to deny themselves
what pleasure (or misery) they get
frbm the haDit for the sake of their
own child or for that of another.
While the evil effects from a cigar on
a man may be slight, the effect of cig
arettes on a child is very damaging to
Its growth and development. All
praise to the boys for their splendid
efforts. .

troduced a joint resolution in congress
providing for the acquisition by the
government of certain lands in Cali

judging from past experience, making
a government reserve of the ground
on which they stand is no certain way
of accomplishing this object.
DOINGS AT WASHINGTON.
Washington, D. C, March 6
Special Correspondence.) The past
w ek has witnessed the ending of the
Or-bate on the Porto Rico revenue bill
in the house. It has made a party
measure, and the democrats hope to
make use of the question In the com
ing campaign. For this reason they
were able to ho'.a nearly all tneir
members In line in opposition to the
bill.
In the course of the long debate the
democrats, as usual, tried to tnrowi
dust in the eyes of the pecple, and in I
this they partially succeeded, as there -seems
to be much misunderstanding
about the real provisions. The minor
ity party made the argument that it
was intended to "rob the poor people
of Porto Rico." A few of the republi
can members were led off by this de
lusion.
The real purpose of the new bill is to
raise revenue to build up the schools
and public works, and maintain the
local government of the island for the
next two years. To do this all goods
shipped from Porto Rico to the states,
and from the states to Porto Rico are
to pay a customs tax equal to 15 per
cent of the tann on simuar guous
entering into or coming from a foreign
market. All the money collected in
this way, both in tne states ana in me
island, goes to the benefit of Porto
. A 1 .11
Rico. Those wno iramea me diu
thought it would be better to levy this
tariff on the business of the alien and
eon-resident merchants and importers
who now have a monopoly of the trade
on the island, rather than to directly
tax the Inhabitants. So that is what
the "robbery" cry amounts to. It Is
quite evident that some of those who
opposed the bill were inspired by a de
sire to aid the capitalists who cootrol
the export business of the island, or
flse thev were on extremely friendly
terms with the merchants of the south
who want the privilege of shipping
products to the island free of duty. No
matter where the inspiration came
from, the democratic leaders have de
prpml that "f ree trade with the colo
nies" will be one of the issues of the
campaign. They are looking for
snm ethinff like this to detract atten
tion from the money question.
The fusion members from Nebraska
have been quite active of late formulat
ing speeches to be printed in the Con
rrrpRHinnal Record. No one listens to
the delivery of this class of speeches,
which are intended only as campaign
documents to be circulated at the ex
pen9e of the government. A simple
app ication for "leave to priut" with
out delivery is ortdn a relief to the
other members. The member who has
a large number of these dummy
speeches printed, however, is often
able to delude his constituency into
the idea that he is a tireless worker
-v,n la Miner ouite a "fisffer in con
gress. 113 is more ouen mntpd unon
as a joke or a nuisance by the members
who do the real work,and who tell the
small fry how to vote.
Mr. Sutherland, In a speech the
other day, referred to the fusion forces
as "we democrats." This agrees pretty
well with the oredictions made in the
"Harrington letter."
The national treasury makes snother
good showing for lebruiry. Ine
statement for the month shows that
the receipts of the government have
exceeded the expenditures by 7,b04,
265 08, representing a reduction of the
national debt by practically that same
amount. For the eight months of the
present fiscal year the surplus receipts
amounted to $37,674 785.22.
This is in direct contrast to the con
dition of thiogs when the democrats
had full control. In a time of pro
found peace they could not pay ex
Denses. but found it necesjary to in
crease the national debt many million
dollars every month.

That Telephone Ordinance.
A. H. Murdock and other members
of the committee appointed by th
Commerciaf club to investigate the
proposed Plattsmouth telephone fran
chise have prepared an ordinance to be
submitted as a substitute to the ordi
nance now before the judiciary com
mittee of the council. This special
committee is composed of H. M. Chris
tie, J. J. Breen, A. H. Murdock, C. M.
Hunt and Richard O'Keefe. Mr.
Christie, the chairman, has an ordi
nance in view which is largely a copy
of the Lincoln ordinance, the special
features being an occupation tax and a
deposit with the city treasurer, to
cover possible defects in street and
sidewalks repairs. Attorney Cohn has
stated that the Murdock ordinance is
entirely satisfactory to the company
he represents and if such is the case it
will likely be submitted to the council
as a substitute for the one now on file.

Internal Revenue DrrlHiona.
A new ruling has b?en rendered by
the department of internal revenue in
regard to the applications for stamps
for the sale of oleomargarine to retail
dealers, says the Bee. Heretofore the
city salesmen of the wholesale houses
have made apj lications for the stamps
and have filled out and certified to the
return", but by the ruling of the de
partment tho return and certificate
must be signed by ono of the firm com
posing the wholesale house.

law to operate under a special tax and

takiner out the license to do business

decision has ben rendered which will
appear strange to the ordinary citizen
It is held that where the original li
cense was issued to a firm and one or
more partners soli their holdings to
one member of the firm, that member
can continue the business under the
original license, but if he takes in an
other partner or sells his holdings the
firm continuing the business in either
casa must secure a new license and pay
a new tax.

February SlaoRhterinff Ugaren.
At this time.of the year receipts of
live stock run light as a ru'e, but tak
ing all things, into consideration, the
business transacted at the packing
houses during February holds its own
with former years, says the South
Omaha correspondent of the Bee. For
the month of February 36,271 head of
cattle were slaughtered and packed
here, while 1P9,572 hogs were killed
and prepared for market. Sheep re
ceipts were smaller than usual, but
notwithstanding this fact 79,071 head
were slaughtered here. This makes a
total of 255,814 heal bandied by the
packing houses in the du'.lest month
of the year. As compared with other
years this showing is all that can be
expected, and those interested in the
live stock business here are more than
pleased. The South Omaha market is
steadily forging to the front, even dur
ing dull times, and it is predicted that
the coming summer will see an extra
ordinary increase in receipts.

Little
Pimples Turn
to Cancer.
Cancer often results from an im
purity in tho blood, inherited from
gone-rations back. Few people are en
tirely free from some taint in the blood,
and it is impossible to tell when it will
break out in the form of dreaded Can
cer. What has appeared to be a mere
pimple or scratch has developed into
tiie. most malignant Cancer.

of physicians. S. S. S. is tho only cure,
because it is the only remedy which
goes deep enough to reach Cancer.
