Address, The Mother Gray Co LeRoy,
N. Y. '
Mr. Bryan's political friends seem
I to think the temperance people ought i
J to let the Nebraskan alone and not in
sist his showing his hand on the county
option question. That you know,
"wasn't in the platform" which, of
course, should excuse one from having,
or at least from expressing, an opinion
thereon. X Fortunately, the voters know
enough abojut the temperance question
to settle it without his assistance. They
are not dependingupon Mr. Bryan or
A VEXING QUESTION.
The temperance question promises to
be a vexing one for the members of
the legislature this winter. The selec
tion of .so many democrats to both
houses was presumed to settle the mat
ter of progressive temperance legisla
tion for at least two years, but quite a
sprinkling of these democratic mem
bers are pledged to county option and
others won't want to vote against it.
A large per cent of the republican
minority will fight hard for a county
option measure. It is hardly likely
that it will be possible to pass a bill of
this kind, and yet it will have so many
staunch supporters that the opponents
of temperance legislation will find the
situation more or less embarrassing.
So rapidly is the sentiment glowing in
favor of either prohibition or county
option that very few of the members
who see fit to oppose legislation of this
kind this winter will be re-elected two
years hence.
In Cass county the candidates who
were most pronounced in favor of tem
perance reform fared the best at the
polls. Had all of the republican can
didates come out flat-footed for county
option early in the campaign the party
would have a solid delegation in Lin
coln this winter. There are enough
voters in favor of progressive temper
ance reform to elect men who will sup
port their ideas. They are not all in
one party but there are plenty in all
the parties.
Thousands who would have voted for
the saloons two or three years ngo are
talking and working against them to
day. As a business proposition the
liquor traffic is looked upon as a failure.
Cities and towns, large and small, are
I coming to realize that they are much
better off without the saloons and their
accompaniments. The towns that are
dryest are destined to be the best from
both a business and a moral standpoint.
As a matter of self-preservation and
local pride, therefore, the towns are
going to insist upon going, and being
kept, "dry." We may have to wait
another two years in Nebraska, but by
that time the voters will be in a proper
frame of mind to adopt county option
or something better.

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the cause

are always , lasting. This remedy
strengthens and tones up the kidneys;
helping them to drive out of the body
the liquid poisons that cause backache,

POINTS TO CHINA'S WASTE.
A 'special dispatch under date of
December; 8 to Globe Democrat from
its Washinjpton correspondent touch
ing the President's message says:
"In the book if, which the president's
message of today is printed for general
circulation that portion, of his message
which refers to ' the -necersity of
forest reservation is illustrated by
photographic views of denuded sec
tions of China. Ten examples of
waste of natural resources are set forth.
One view represented a section of 263
square miles of barren mountain tops
which the underline says paid a rich
revenue a century ago." -' ;
THE STATE OF LINCOLN.
The proposal of Mr. Albert E. Pils
bury of Boston that, upon New Mexico's
admission into the Union the name of
the state be changed to "Lincoln" is
meeting with considerable approval
throughout the country. It is general
ly admitted that "New Mexico" ia a
ratner meaningless designation tor a
state and the need of a new cognomen
is manifest, Names like New York,
New Hampshire and New Jersey are
fitted only for colonies. The opportun
ity to honor the name of Lincoln by
naming a state after him will pass with
the admission into the union of Arizona
and new Mexico. When Colorado be
came a state it waS proposed to name
the new commonwealth Lincoln, but
congress did not look with favor upon
the proposal. Washington Post.

Mr. Crowder has had a hard fight
