BARTLETT. THE Topeka Journal lias dis covered -why England is called the -'tight little island. " There are 180,000 dram shops in it. the United States1 authority - ity behind the restriction of liquor transportation into prohibition states what is the trouble about prohibition prohibiting ? THE indications are that Colonel McKeighan will be easily fanned out by Mr. Harlan in the Second district. The republican has two strikes and no balls on him already. Journal. THE republican newspapers of ilie second congressional district are beginning to air the record of Candidate McKeighan , and the ex posures already made ought to end tlie struggle. Nebraska cannot afford to send such men to repre sent her in the national house of representatives. Journal. THERE are at the present time 62,400 post offices in the United States , an increase of 3.401 during tke past ten years. The increase during the past year was the great est in our history , and about ten times greater than the entire num ber of post offices in the land when tlie first Postmaster , Benj. Frank lin , took charge of the Department. "WHAT we want in politics is more good sound sense and less claptrap nonsense. The intelligent voter should repel the advances of him who talks one way and acts another. There ought to be as much honesty in politics as other business , and the person who fails to practice such is not fit to lead men or enjoy office at the hands of an honest people. Liberty Journal. IN the city of New York , the greatest city in the union , only fourteen thousand persons lastyear returned to the assessor any per sonal property. "When less than one per cent of the population of a. great commercial city fails to re turn their property to the assessor , it is plainly evident that our laws of taxation and assessment are a delusion and a snare. THE farmers and anti-monopo lists of this district can vote for Mr. Harlan with confidence , as his xeeord is a sufficient guarantee that he will always "be found work ing for their interests. The demo crats have worked very shrewdly to secure the nomination of Judge McKeighan by the alliance conven tion , feeling that they had a chance to elect him ; but their hopes are dashed to the earth by the nomina tion of Mr. Harlan. McKeighan may expect a worse defeat than when he ran against Laird. Seward - ard Eeporter , IT is asserted that in 1850 the farmers owned three-fourths of the aggregate wealth of this country in 1860 about one-half , in .1880 about one-third and in 1890 barely tf one-fourth. If this statement is accurate the awakening of the pee pie to the importance of a better understanding of economic ques tions has not come any too soon IN ONE of his soul-stirring anc tear-fetching speeches , recently de livered at Superior , Judge Me Keighan made many remarkable statements. Among other inter esting things he assured his aud ience that if he is elected to con gress he would pass laws that wil make it possible for men anc women to live without labor money will be provided and given av/ay by the government ; there will be no sickness no deaths Allah be praised. Great is Me Keighan. Like Joshua of old , he can make the sun stand still unti he gets through fighting the Phil istines. He can make the crops grow and will chase away the hog cholera. Bee. SAYS Calhoun of the democratic Lincoln Herald : "The editor o this paper naturally had a gooc deal of fun while in attendance on the state convention in connection with his temperance views. In the course of a social chat on the sub ject of open saloons he happenec to mention that he had a son whose future welfare was somewhat in volved. He was told that all he had to do to make the boy safe was just to raise him so he wouldn' want to go into a saloon. He has had the suggestion under consid eration for a week or so and con cluded it would be easier to raise the saloon so the boy can nevei find it. A danger that has been abolished is no longer a danger. It is poor policy to avoid dangei that may be removed. " THE Australian system puts the voter squarely on his feet. The rule of the hoodlum and heeler is over. His kingdom is swept away. The citizen need no longer be the victim of the hoodlum caucus. He need not further contest with howl ing importations at the primary. Delegates in convention may be brought or bought to improper nominations but the right men may be elected and the right may still prevail. The cliques and rings have become weak and the people strong. Voters of the rank and file may assert their rights and raise their voices in spite of the machine. The Australian system opens wide the way. It offers sure , safe , easy avenues of action. The voter may tread therein without money and without price. The law will take and print and peddle and protect his ticket. It can come from the humble , the lordly , the high , the low and get even equal consideration. THE outlook for national legis lation compelling railroads to equip their rolling stock with automatic safety couplers is favorable. The house committee on railroads and canals has combined in one meas ure the best features of several bills. The committee calls attention to the necessity of legislation to check the frightful loss of life and limb caused by the present death deal ing couplings. Nineteen hundred and seventy-two railroad employes were killed and twenty thousand and twenty-eight injured during the year 1889. A large per cent of this appalling list must be cred ited to the ever present dangers of the link and pin coupling and the hand brake. It is certainly witii- in the power of congress to enact and enforce a law designed to di minish the annual slaughter and maiming of railroad operatives. State legislation cannot reach the evil. An act of congress alone can secure the desired uniformity of automatic safety appliances in the equipment of railroad cars. Bee. .THE experiment in capital-shar ing with employes that the Illinois Central Eailroad is inaugurating .will be watched with a great deal" of interest. The corporation in vites its employes to invest their savings in the stock of the Com pany , one share or more at a time , according to the means , at the market price. Shares can be pur chased on installments , interest be ing allowed on all money paid in , and the purchaser may withdraw at any time and have his invest ments paid back to him. It is be lieved by the officers of the Com pany that this plan , if generally accepted by the men employed on the road , will result in establishing a community of interests that will be 'beneficial to all concerned. Theoretically the scheme is admira ble and well worthy of serious at tention. How it wilHvork in prac tice remains to be seen. If it should accomplish even part of what is hoped for , it might offer a possible solution of sdine of the troubles that now exist in the rela tions of railway employes to the corporations for which they toil. R. B. WAHLQUIST , editor of the Adams County Democrat , who was nominated , last week , at the demo cratic state convention for auditor , is a Scandinavian by birth and by practice a general all around good fellow. His paper is the most prominent democratic paper in the Second congressional district , and to recognize the press by placing him on the state ticket was the proper thing to do. He will be defeated by a handsome majority , but he will not be disfigured , and when the fight is over he will still be in the ring and his bosom will still heave with that lorn and lonely hope that springs eternal in the democratic breast. The Adver tiser leans kindly toward young Mr. Wahlquist because he is young. There is a suculent freshness , in juicy youth that disarms criticism and pleases the naked eye. Sutton - ton Advertiser. SIXTY-FOOB millions ! That is a good many people. Great Brit ain claims sway over a much larg er number , but three-fourths of all British subjects are under colonial governments. China and Eussia alone exceed the United States in the number of persons directly un der a central government , and we may therefore justly claim that this is the greatest civilized nation on the face of the globe. And in asmuch as the rate of its growth shows no diminution , we may fair ly expect that the end of this cen- niry will see a republic inhabited by more than eighty million people. THE churches of New York are uniting to assist in the downfall of Tammany , this fall. The lead ing clergymen have already joined ; he municipal league and it is ; hought that all will come in before ; he campaign begins in earnest. The idea is to make each church a political club during the struggle. Perhaps this is not exactly the kind of work that they were organized perform , but it is not easy to see hat they can do more good by tak- ug any other course. Fighting Tammany is booming practical Christianity. Journal. ME. ELAINE'S splendid exposi- ion of the principle of taking as well as giving when it comes to jutting a great staple on the free ist , at Waterville , Maine , bore immediate fruit. The senate has amended the sugar schedule so hat sugar shall be free on condi- ion that the sugar producing countries admit free of duty the great staples of the United States. Phis action will take sugar out of ; he tariff debate and greatly expe- lite the business of congress , for sugar was a sore subject. THE Bank of Stockville is closing up its affairs and will retire from business. J. W. Dolan , Geo. J. Kelly and E , M. Kelly are the in- , corporators. HOW THEY DAMAGE THE STATE. THE ranting of such demagogues and shysters as McKeighan and Kemm since the "independent" campaign opened has renewed in the east the idea formerly created by the incendiary slush of Burrows aud Van "Wyke , that the farmers of Nebraska are bankrupt , that they cannot make a living out of the soil of the prairies , and that in the course of a few years the land of the greater portion of the state will be deserted and will return to the original wilderness , ready for the buffalo and coyote to resume their residence. There is little doubt that the malicious lies scattered broadcast by these arrant hypo crites , and eagerly snatched up by the newspapers of Iowa and other states back to Massachusetts and Maine that are jealous of the rapid growth of the great northwest and adverse to seeing their young men leave for Nebraska to grow up with the country , have for the time being , at least taken several dollars off the market price of every acre of farming laud in the state. It so happens that in several recently settled counties on the western fron tier there will be real distress dur ing the coming winter 011 account of the failure of the crops from the hot winds and drouth. This will assist much as an apparent endorse ment of the stories of pauperism and starvation told by the dema gogues. The injury will not be permanent , but it will for the next year or two be sufficient to add greatly to the discomfort of many a Nebraska homesteader , by the impairment of his credit and the shrinkage of his working capital , which is the cash value of his farm. -Slate Journal. A SUBLIME SPECTACLE. THE following striking picture of the Democratic party , subordina ting every interest-aiiti-monopoly , tariff reform , a free ballot , free coinage , all that might ameliorate the condition of the people-to the whiskey interest , is taken from Calhoun's article which will be published in to-morrow morning's Call : - As soon as we have secured to some men the assured right to spread brutality and poverty , to sow the seeds of strife and murder , to starve women and children then we will come to the aid of the victims of class misrule , corporate conspiracy , and tariff robbery. It" is a sublime spectacle. Six mil lions of men on a crusade for good government , pursuing an errand of liberation , pause in their march until the saloon keeper is put be yond all danger or responsibility. Such an incident is without a par allel in human history. It is the colossal blunder of the ages if it be seriously undertaken. MOORE & HART , LAWYERS.
