Oh , What a Difference !
There is oue difference between Web
ster S. Morlan , the Republican nominee
for congress in this district , and A. C
Shallenberger , the Fusion nominee for
that office , which cannot fail to endear
Mr. Morlan to the hearts of those farm
ers of the district who remember the
distressing times of the failure years.
The record of Mr. Shalleuberger as a
purchaser of notes fioui a quack doctor ,
secured from unsuspecting farmers down
in Harlan couuty , is too well known to
require more than a mention at our
hands. On the other hand , the writer
knows of two or three instances in Red
Willow county alone , where Mr. Morlan
saved farmers , who were not even of his
own political faith , from heavy property
loss during those distressing times , by
advancing the money for those farmers ,
the who demanding
to money-loaners were
ing the foreclosure of loans , and securing
continuances until the farmers could
tide over the failure and be in better
shape to pay the indebtedness. Farmers
of the Fifth district , need you wait for
one moment to decide which man you
ought to vote for ?
REPUBLICANS have a reliable habit of
following the flag , if the constitution
doesn't.
- JUST an X after the name of Dr. J. E.
Hathorn will return him to the next
legislature and assist in the election of
two U. S. senators.
DON'T forget that X after the name of
W. R. Starr , the Republican nominee
for county attorney. It will do the
work.
IN their state ticket , the Republicans
of Nebraska have a clean and able lot ol
candidates before the people. They are
worthy the votes of all good citizens.
WHILE making the sign of the cross
down the Republican column , do not
overlook the name of E. N. Allen , the
Republican nominee for state senator ol
the agth district. Vote for him ; it will
count in the election of two U. S. sena
tors in the coming session of the legis
lature.
THE population of the United States
according to the census of 1900 , just
completed , is 76,295,220. The popula
tion of Nebraska is 1,068.901 , as against
1,058,910 in 1890 , or an increase of less
than one thousand a year. This slight
increase of but 9991 in ten years is easily
explained ; it is generally admitted that
the 1890 census of Omaha , Lincoln and
other of the leading towns was disgrace
fully "padded , " hence the small show
ing for the past ten years. There is no
doubt but that the population of Ne
braska has largely increased in the past
ten years , hut the "padded" census of
1890 makes a real shoxving impossible.
The fact of 1890 is not a credit to the
state.
Two years ago the Populists and Dem
ocrats , by their united strength , elected
R. D. Sutherland to congress. Today ,
Sutherland is on the stump in the north
ern portion of the Fifth district , trying
to elect a Democrat to succeed himself.
Mr. Sutherland is , like all Populist
speakers , making the trust question the
burden of his song to some extent. Now ,
when Mr. Sutherland was called upon to
go upon record on this trust question ,
he voted directly for the trusts , which
he now declaims against. On June i ,
of this year , the house of representatives
took a vote on what was known as the
anti-trust amendment to the inter-state
commerce law. The second section of
this amendment read as follows : "Con
gress shall have the power to define ,
regulate , control , prohibit or dissolve
trusts , monopolies or combinations ,
whether existing in the form of a com
bination or otherwise. The several states
may continue to exercise such power in
any manner not in conflict with the laws
of the United States. " Notwithstanding
the little sop throxvn by the Republicans
to the states' rights element of the Dem
ocrats in the last sentence of this sec
tion , they voted almost solidly against
it. One hundred and forty-eight Repub
licans voted for the measure , and 130
Democrats and Fusionists voted against
it , end the amendment , requiring a two-
thirds majority , was lost. R. D. Suther
land was one of those who voted against
this amendment , which was intended to
be the most sweeping legislative action
ever taken against these combinations.
The people of the Fifth district have
been sold out once by a Fusionist. Do
they want to elect another to play the
same tricks upon ns ? Superior Journal.

BEFORE AND AFTER.
As the Grand Island Democrat seems
to be the loudest newspaper in the op
position in its ravings about Burlington
influence and passes in connection with
the candidacy of Webster S. Morlan ,
the Republican nominee for congress
man , it seems mete aud right to refer to
au article that appeared in that paper
early in the campaign , and compare it
witli the facts ol the campaign at the
present time :
Our friend W. S. Morlan of McCook is no
" " . He nominated
longer a "passive" politician. was
nated by the Republicans of this , the Fifth ,
district for congress. Mr. Morlan is a lawyer ,
and there is no' better lawyer in the state. He
is a Republican , but an anti-expansionist of
the outspoken sort ; neither is he a high pro
tectionist. He is a Quaker in religion , and in
the church received his sobriquet of "deacon. "
But , better than all , Morlan is a gentleman by
nature , lie is a first-class man ; but in poli
tics is essentially a creation of the Burlington
railroad. This not being a B. & . M. year in
Nebraska , it is too bad to sacrifice him ; for a
corporation spokesman is already defeated.
Grand Island Democrat. April 2th , 1900.
A perusal of the above article and a
comparison of the same with later ut
terances must irresistibly force the
reader to the conclusion that the editor
" " the Fusion
has been "inspired" by
management in his later attempts to
play the demagogue and by throwing
dust seek to obscure the real facts in the
campaign. It is the trick of the design
ing and conscienceless politician trying
to fool the people , for it is a generally-
known fact that Mr. Shallenberger's
chairman is a Democratic Burlington
banker of Hastings , especially selected
for his ability to secure Burlington passes
and use Burlington influence It is also
just as generally and widely known that
Mr. Shallenberger's advisers and mani
pulators all over the district are Burling
ton lawyers , as is the case in Red Cloud ,
Beaver City , Alma , Elwood , Culbertson
and other points. And it is openly
alleged that the Fusion chairman has
distributed more passes than any legis
lative candidate on the Republican ticket
has dreamed of. On the other hand the
chairman of the Republican congress
ional committee has been painfully
short of the persuasive paste-boards and
Mr. Morlan's friends all too well know
that his pass-giving , since his election ,
has been confined to strictly railroad
business.
Not only , it seems , is the Fusion man
agement seeking to thus draw attention
away from the fact of the Fusion nomi
nee being distinctly "next" to all this
dreadful Burlington influence and passes ,
but to cover over Mr. Shallenberger's
record as a gold-bug banker , as an op
ponent of Populism , and to afford a cover
for extensive trading of votes.
The record is that he was a "Cleveland
Sound Money Leaguer , " a gold-bug at
heart , who helped throw Mr. Bryan
over the transom in the convention of
1894 , but who finally "saw the light * ' in
i8g6.quit hating and knifing Populists
down in Harlan county , and has siuce
been any old thing for office.
Again , he is a banker , who , though
owning a controlling interest in the
Bank of Alma , denies his business by
withdrawing his name from the station
ery and advertisements of his bank and
announces himself as a breeder of fine
cattle. His record as a usurer and pur
chaser of notes secured by fake doctors
and others from unsuspecting farmers
and afterward forcing their collection
because he was an "innocent purchaser , "
were not considered the proper caper to
take before the farmers of the district
for their votes. Hence the "stop-thief"
cry of corporation-influence rot.
Nebraska's Paramount Issue.
There is no question as to what is the
paramount issue in Nebraska , says the
Chicago Tribune. It is prosperity and
it is spelled with a big P. Here is the
real issue as found by a prominent Pop
ulist of Colfax couuty , the paradise of
Populism. In 1896 a Populist cauie to
T. M. Bowman , a dealer of implements
at Schuyler , and bought a buggy to be
paid for iu corn at the market price at
Jie gathering time that year. The
buggy cost $55 aud it took 550 bushels
of corn -to settle the bill. A couple of
weeks ago one of his neighbors came iu
to the same dealer and asked the price
of the same buggy , which was quoted to
: iim at $65. "This is an advance of $10
over the price of four years ago. Where
s your McKinley prosperity ? " said the
disciple of Bryan. "Wait a minute , "
said the dealer , "you deliver me the
same number of bushels of corn at
gathering time this year that your neigh-
Dor did in 1896 and I will give you the
same buggy , a brand new two-horse
sulky plow worth $40 , and $10 in money.
Do you see any prosperity in that ? "
'I guess you have the better end of the
argument. I'll take the buggy along
and pay cash for it. I don't need all of
those things , " said the Populist pulling
out his pocket book and proceeding to
count out $65.
SPEAKING of fakes , that Grover Cleve-
and fake was about the fuzziest of the
campaign. Scarcely had the fraudulent
nterview , ( in which the ex-president
was quoted as expressing the greatest
assurance that Mr. Bryan would be
elected by an overwhelming majority , )
jone into type , before the ex-president
stamped the whole affair as a lie out of
whole cloth. What more detestable
) olitical chicanery than that can you
magtne. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You will generally find Republicans
bllowing the flag , if the constitution
loesn't always.
The Curfew Law.
A word of explanation in regard to the
curfew law will perhaps be proper at this
time : The Women's Christian Temper
ance Union , while in hearty sympathy
with this work , did not contemplate tak
ing any steps along this line at the pres
ent time ; but we have been requested
by a number of citizens to make the can
vass with a petition.
There has been an expression , almost
unanimous , of the need of such legisla
tion of the help it would be to parents
and to the authorities as well. The only
dissatisfaction has been expressed in
this way : "I will sign it , if they fix the
age limit high enough. " "Well , make
it twenty ! " one gentleman said. This
.sentiment was voiced by many , nearly
all voters. A few were so bold as to
suggest the limit be fixed at fifty a pos
sible solution of many difficulties and
then the parent could help look after
his own boy aud girl at home and save
police hire.
All levity aside , many parents wel
come this aid to their government , and
so heartily concur in the movement that
it has been a labor of love to our women ;
for it is in the streets our children of
tender years learn much from which we
would shield them , and if we are helpful
in saving to purer thoughts and lives
some of the children , it will have been a
profitable service.
We are told some of the children are
crying , and are afraid of the curfew law
as if it were some giant bugaboo. One
of the rights of children is the hour of
recreation ; another the hour of sleep.
It will be well for these children if this
law , enacted for their safe-keeping , is
the means of guarding them from evils
which , in their very innocence , they do
not understand. Here the parents are
to act for the interest and well being of
their children and to determine who is
the safe counsellor for the child the
parents with their experience and love ,
or the child with its ideas of freedom
and scorn of restraint , its uaturalignor-
auce of the consequences of wrong
doing.
We ask the hearty co-operation of the
parents and citizens in this matter. It
is important to many and to the city
government as well , as it is on the
streets , in the shelter of the night , that
many are tempted and take their first
steps in wrong-doing and crime.
PRESS COMMITTEE.
W. C. T. U. Entertained.
The October business meeting of the
union convened at the home of Mrs.
Christina Doll , with a good attendance
and several visiting ladies. At the con
clusion of the business programme all
were psessed to stay , when a delightful
luncheon was served by the hostess ,
Mrs. Doll , assisted by Mrs. John Stevens
and Mrs. George Beck. The tea and
coffee , sandwiches and pickles , with
delicious cakes , were heartily enjoyed ,
and the social home was one to remem
ber. The whole affair was a surprise to
the members of the union and thus
doubly enjoyable. It means much to
us , that Mrs. Doll , one of the original
crusaders , far from the old home state ,
has the cause "For God and Home and
Every Land , " so near her heart. May
she be spared many years to labor with
us for the work she so much loves , is the
prayer of the W. C. T. U. women.

The news of the death of Conductor
Al Sharp at Florence , Colorado , on the
Denver & Rio Grande , Tuesday evening ,
came as a keen stroke to his many
friends on the Western division , where
he was well and generally known. The
news is that he was pinched by the cars
in the afternoon , dying about nine
o'clock , the same night. He was for a
number of years employed on the West
ern division , and was regarded as a first-
class railroad man. He has been on
the Denver & Rio
Grande for about a
year and a half.

Citizens of Hastings Protest
Against the Vile Slanders
Circulated on their Fel
low Townsman.
Charles II. Dietrich Kmlorxed by llin
Neighbor * aw a Man of Splendid
diameter.
Ilnstlngs , Neb. , Oct 30. The people
of this city , Irrespective of politics , lire
Incensed and indignant over the cruel
falsehoods put in circulation by scan
dal mongers of the fusion party con
cerning the character of Charles II.
Dietrich , Republican candidate for
governor , and for more than 120 years
u beloved and highly esteemed citi
zen of this town. There Is not a re
putable citizen here who does not pro
nounce the attacks on Mr. Dietrich
false and monstrous. As a means of
silencing the putrid lips of rumor and
exposing the vicious falsifiers who
have been imposing upon public credu
lity with vile and shameful stories
about Mr. Dietrich , the following
statement , signed by citizens of Hast
ings , is offered. Among those whose
names appear as signers are many of
the leading men and women of Hast
ings , many of whom are prominent In
business1 and religious circles. Here
are Mr. Dietrich's neighbors who have
lived in the same town with him for
many years. Here is what they say
of him over their own signatures :
Whereas , Itvuorts have been circulated
for the purpose of iumiuiicing votes against
our fellow townsman , Hon. C. H. Dietrich ,
candidate for governor , cuurginc liiin with
being addicted to the use of liquor , and also
Baying that his reputation is that of a li
centious man , we , the undersigned citizens
of Hustings , Nebraska , desire to make the
following stutemeiit :
Mr. Dietrich has lived iu Hastings for 22
rears. We are thoroughly acquainted with
him and we embrace this opportunity to re
pel the vicious attacks ou his character.
He is not a drinking uiuii , in the ordinary
acceptation of the term. He Is uot u fre
quenter of saloons , and his reputation is
Is'OT that of a licentious man.
Mr. Dietrich Is a mail of large business In
terests. He has been a potent factor , moral
ly and linuucially , in the upbuilding of our
city. As a business man his reputation la
good , aud we believe that if elected to the
high office of governor , he would bring to
the discharge of its duties such thorough
business methods , capacity for unlimited
work , aud devotion to its duties , as would
give to the people u wise , safe , prudent ,
economical administration. As citizens of
his town , we commeiid him to the people of
the state.

COME AND BE SHOWN
"Never Sleeps
ONES
A Practical Jolce.
He was a wag and was passing a
large draper's shop In Manchester.
There , drawn up , were three or four
vehicles , and among them was a closed
brougham with the driver fast asleep
on the box. Evidently the mistress
was inside the shop. Without a word
the wag stole quickly np and , opening
the carriage door , carefully slammed It
to. In an instant the coachman
straightened himself up and gazed up
the street as if he had never seen anj-
thing more interesting to look at In his
life. Then he stole a look over his
shoulder and saw the wag standing ,
hat In hand , apparently conversing
with some one inside the carriage.
"Thank you , yes. Good morning , "
said the practical joker and bowed
himself gracefully away from the door ,
turning as he did so to look at the
coachman and say , "Home ! "
"Yes , sir ! Teh ! Get up ! " and away
went the brougham "home. "
Where that "home" was , who the
mistress of the carriage was or what
she did or said when she came out of
the shop or what the coachman did or
said when he stopped at the door off
"home" and found the carriage empty
all that only the coachman and the
lady know. London Tit-Bits.
A Clever Blind Man.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
tells of a blind man in a southern city
svho goes to the postoflice every day
carrying a small , light riding whip ,
tvhich he holds slightly inclined to the
front , with the tip just touching the
pavement. Ills sense of touch has be
come so delicate that the whip Is al-
aiost an artificial eye. When the point
? ncounters anything , he makes a few
swift passes over the surface and gen
erally determines the exact character
) f the obstacle. It is done so quickly
md deftly as to attract no attention ,
md few passers have the least suspl-
ion of the old man's infirmity. When
10 reaches the postoffice , he turns un-
icsitatingly , mounts the middle stairs ,
valks over to the lock boxes and with-
ut any feeling around thrusts a key
nto the right aperture.

ind added in a whisper : "If you value
