(U ' " .- ,'fi -- " " -'--- - .-., - ....... i. ... .. ...... The Plattsmouth Journal Judge Parker could carry New York, while Mr. Roosevelt could not. If U. S. senators were elected by the people they would not dare to pursue their present dilitory tactics in the hope of preventing anti-trust legislation. While the president didn't tret any bears on his southern trip, he has suc ceeded in getting a few "coons' on hand that he would be awful glad to get rid of. . The next national republican con vention will be comprised of 447 dele gates of which number 173 will come from the south and will cheerfully obey the mandates of one M. A. Hanna. Tiie reduction in the price of cattle does not benefit the consumer of meat so that he can notice it. Local dealers are paying very little less to the pack ing houses than they did several month3 ago. Two of the great New York dailies which have heretofore been loyal to the president, have turned on him. One U bitter in Its ridicule of his anti trust policy, the other Is condemning his southern trip. Omaha Bee: John 2s. Baldwin lives Iowa. If he lived In Nebraska and was compelled to pay taxes on his own prop er: y for the benefit of the rallroadshe would not be so positive about the rail .roads paying all the taxes they oughi to pay. A pointer for Governor Mickey. . In ascending to the position of Govern or of Iowa, Leslie M.Shaw used the following language: "I am not so wise but I shall need advice; I am not so egotistical as not to consider it; nor am I so foolish as to think I can follow all the advice I get. This much only I can pay: While I hold the office I will endeavor to be chief executive of Iowa, and no man shall sit on the arm of my chair." No Baldwins ever ruled that governor, you bet The members of the present legisla ture went before the people last fall on the issue of the railroads vs. the peop.le. The railroads won out by a big majority, and consequently the voters are to blame for any legislation done in the Interests of these monopo lies to the detriment of other taxpay ers of Nebraska. The great majority were elected to do the bidding of the railroads. Republicans voted for them knowing this fact, and should be the ' la-st otie to register a kick. They have - none comlog.-and wouldn't have even if all other legislation Is side-tracked in thelaUiesu of the raiireads. It is becoming a custom in many homes now days, since scarcity of fut-1 became so apparent, for the family cir cle togather around one stove and hum "In the Good Old Summer Time." Friday's World-Herald contained a cartoon of Hon. Geo. M. Spurlock of this city, the joint representative from Otoe and Cass. Below which are these words: "Who isn't exactly an anti railroad man " All of which Is correct; but would it not have been more truth ful to have said: "He is a railroad man?" The people owe adebtofgratiude to Senator Vest , of Missouri. lie has won a substantial victory against the coal trust. Tariff off of coal is in operation f-r one year. The republicans were simply forced to take action by the eloquent appeal of the distinguished Missourian. He is a democrat and consequently a friend of the people. The action of the senate in placing anthracite coal on the free list furn ishes this proof. The confession is made that the republicans abandon their former position and agree that the removal of the tariff duty on an thracite coal, while containing no menace of lower wages for workingmen, offers relief to consumers by m iking competition possible. This is the ex treme form of the argument, extended all along the line, upon which the ad vocates of tariff reform urge a revision of the Dingley tariff. Different Now. Apostle Reed Smoot will take his seat In the United States senate after the fourth of March, as a republican member from Utah. This is his re ward Tor instructing the Mormons in that state and Idaho to vote the re publican ticket at the recent election. When the democrats of Utah a few years ago elected Roberts to the lower house of congress the republican pa pers rang with denunciation of the out rage and the republican preachers all over the country joined in a mighty protest against the alleged polygamist being seated. Roberts was refused a seat and the honor of the nation was vindicated. Roberts w as only a hum ble member of the Methodist church. But now one of the chief apostles is to serve in the senate and the republican papers and republican preachers are not uttering a word of protest. Smoot is a defender of the sanctity of polyga mous marriages and the whole power or the church is behind him, but that makes no difference so long as he votes with the party of "God and morality." Th'-re was a time when the republican party had holy horror of the "tw in rel- Icsof barbarism! slavery and polyg amy, but that was away back in tne days of Abraham Lincoln and Chanea Sumner.. Ant thing goes with the "let well enough aione party" In tbess lat ter days. Brief Editorials Right to the Point. The coal troubles will be settled about the time our quarrels with the ice-man begin. The present policy of the republicans seems to be to spoil the anti-trust broth with too many cooks. Will the republicans do anything to remedy the currency laws which they are pledged to perfect? Secretary Shaw says not. Representative Littlefield of Maine, who believes he ha a remedy for trusts, is being made the butt of ridicule by his colleagues for his lack of republi canism. Now that the elections are over and the colored vote is all in, the talk of cutting down Southern representation in Congress has been packed away for future use. It now begins to look as though the Marconi system of wireless tele graphy would prove a success, the gov ernment officials to the coutrary not withstanding. A clerical boycott against divorces would give South Dakota a chance to help the clergymen and justicesof that stale with a relief law. Representative Cochran of Missouri will soon surprise the country with a financial bill which it is promised will place the republican congressional financeers in a bad light. If the Dingley bill does not need re j vision it proves that the protection policy is a failure for it has not built up American industries to a point where they can stand alone. The republican chairman of the judi ciary committee of the national house of representatives declares that there are no trusts. Needless to say the prospects of anti-trust legislation are not bright. There has been a cut in the price of bef on the hoof of over 30 per cent. with no corresponding reduction of the retail price, and yet some people have the temerity to tell us that there is no beef trust. The unfortunate beet sugar manu facturers of Michigan can guarantee, under existing conditions, only 82 per cent on their investment Naturally they will strive earnestly to defeat the Cuban treaty. There is every indication that the tariff schedules which Mr. Dingley purposely made too high, to permit of their reduction by reciprocity w ill con tinue too bib after the fifty-seventh congress adjourns. w w a you want Ui halp your town Lx 1903? You can do so by saying a good in its behalf instead of running it down. Try this plan and see if it does help Plattsmouth and you also. The United States Patent Office es tablished a good rule by refusing to al low President Roosevelt's name to be used as a trade-mark without his con sent. This will prohibit the use of Mark Hanna 's trade dollar mark Farmers henceforth are to be con fronted with a new trust, which is known as the Thrashing Trust. Not much will be left of antagonistic com bines if the farmers get excited. They have a fighting method of their own. There are quite a number of demo crats in Cas county who are not taking the Journal. We want to assure every on or these gentlemen that we will give them the full value of their mon ey if they desire to become subscribers Grover Cleveland's boom for presi dent is a huge fish story. The tale must have emanated from Buzzaids Bay. A picture of the quizzical smile on the ex-president's face, as he reads the story, would be interesting. He no doubt enjoys the joke. The time was when it was held that by its honesty and independence and the loyalty of its citizens, the United States could command the respect of other nations without a military and naval establishment equal in strength to the strongest. Evidently Mr. Roose velt regards that time as passed. The railroads and big corporations are still lobbying vigorously to defeat the educational clause in the immigra tion bill. They wish to import the cheapest class of labor in order to keep waxes down and give them a horde of uneducated voters whose suffrage they can manipulate as they please. It seems hardly reasonable to ask the government to grant subsidies to ship ping companies and build up a navy with a view to increasing the foreign trade of the United States when every day United State consuls are reporting that because of the unwillingness of Americans to adapt themselves to the demands of the foreign trade they are losing custom they ought to control to the more accommodating Euro peans. Since the revolution has been resum ed in Venezuela The Hague tribunal may have difficulty in ascertaining who are the government down there. The revolution party may be preparing to repudiate Castro's proposals for arbi tration. At any rate, the world can not fail to admire the Venezuelan etiquette which constrained the revo lution party to maintain an armistice during the Anglo-GermanItalian de mojostxaUoa. A winner for 1904: For president, Judge Alton B. Parker, of New York; for vice-president, Gov. A. M. Dockery, of Missouri. Some of the "infant industries" have grown to be such sturdy youngsters that they are offering shares of stock to their men. Can it be possible that the period of protection is nearing an end? This must be a sad subject of contemplation for Mark Hanna and company. Your Tongue If it's coated, your stomach is bad, your liver is out of order.
