Government ownership of coal mines
is gaining not a few adherents these
turbulent strike dajs
General Russell A Alger has been
appointed United States senator by Gov
ernor Bliss of Michigan to succeed the
late Senator McMillan
Our Man Mickey seems to be the
storm center of the campaign And it
will not surprise us to see him elected by
the largest plurality of any candidate on
the Republican ticket
With an almost unequaled percapita
of money circulation Uncle Sam has to
use every spare nickel just now to move
the unprecedented crops and to transact
the matchless business of the country
So far the opposition has signally
failed to score once against Judge Norris
but on the contrary he grows steadily in
popularity and strength and his election
seems to be more and more a question of
plurality as the campaign proceeds and
progresses
A vote for Judge Norris for congress
man will be a vote of confidence in Presi
dent Roosevelt as well as a vote to elect
an able man to congress who is in sym
pathy with the present national adminis
tration Both are worthy motives and
appeal to the thoughtful patriotic citi
zen
So far the only people in the state who
express dissatisfaction over the nomina
tion of J H Mickey are democratic ora
tors The populists who know the nomi
nation of Thompson sounded the death
nell of their party are not denouncing
Mickeyneither are they praising Thomp
son and when they go to the polls next
November they are more likely to vote
for Mickey than they are for Thompson
North Platte Tribune
WilliamMcKinley once gave a defini
tion of the Republican party He said
You do not have to guess what the Re
publican party will do The whole world
knows its purpose It has embodied
them in law and executed them in ad
ministration For more than fifty years
it has been the party of sturdy American
principles progressive and conservative
accomplishing what it advocates and
advocating what best represents the
ideals of the most progressive people in
the whole world One charateristic of
the party is that it is never influenced
by historical impulses but resists that
tendency within its own ranks and with
stands it in the assaults of its opponents
In this same definite manner it will fin
ally deal with trusts The effort will be
to maintain the rights of the people

The Democrats of Virginia are so
jealous for tho purity of the ballot
that they not only disfranchised the
negro but have in their new constitution
disfranchised 3000 vetern soldiers in the
National Soldiers Home at Hampton Va
A vote for the entire Republican
ticket will be a vote for the continuance
of good government in nation state and
county Indeed none want a change
from the present prosperous peaceful
and splendid condition of our country
but those who want in themselves
W K Fowler has given excellent
satisfaction as state superintendent of
public instruction and deserves a hearty
indorsement on the part of the voters
He has proven his adaptability for the
position beyond question and it would
be the part of unwisdom that Nebraska
voters are seldom guilty of to ignore his
claim for reelection Norfolk News
The Alliance Grip is of the opinion
that Editor Rosewater must bo getting
in his dotage when he thinks he can run
up against four railroad companies in
Omaha in packing primaries for the
nomination of any man for any office
Of course the Grip is simply joking
neither Rosewater nor any of the four
railroad companies in Omaha would be
guilty of such a rape of the election laws
of Nebraska as to pack primaries
Some people never learn anything by
experience That is the way with the
crop of new statesmen who are run
ning the Democratic party just at pre
sent They do not have to hark back
over the trail more than six or eight
years to find the ashes of the camp fires
of free trade times when there was no
bacon in the frying pan nor coffee in tho
pot And yet they want their followers
to camp there again The Democratic
leaders may not profit by experience but
the people will You wont catch some
of those wily old Democrats in therural
districts again in any such fix They
have learned that the Republican camp
fire is the place where the bacon is plen
tiful the coffee good and strong and
there is fodder for the horses and water
for the cattle That is where they are
going to unhitch and camp on this trip
This is a great country but did you
ever stop to think which party is respon
sible for its greatness Look over the
record and point to anything in the last
tbirty seven years that the Democratic
party has done in the way of practical
and beneficent achievement Not a
thing The Republicans have done it all
They put the country on its feet after the
civil war put the money of the nation at
par in the worlds banking houses start
ed the industries going which today give
renumerative employment to labor and
furnish a market for the sale of the far
mers products at good prices All the
good labor laws good banking laws
good pension laws good laws in general
have been enacted by the Republicans
The Democrats were in charge of affairs
for a brief but unfortunate period and
all that they demonstrated they could
do was to tear down some of the good
work of the Republicans and set the
country back a half dozen years or so
Dont let them do it again
No such simple safe and inexpensive
method of mail remittances has ever
been devised and its advantages to the
masses of the people are so many and so
great that the only wonder is that there
be any opposition to the plan Post
master General Payne favors the scheme
as does Auditor Castle of the treasury
department The utility and simplicity
of the post check has appealed to
nearly everybody who has given the
scheme any thought It has the en
dorsement of financial experts and of
business men who are dependent on the
mails for the receipt or dispatch of
money particularly in small sums to a
considerable extent It ought to im
press congress favorably for it is in the
interest of the people Such being the
case congress ought not to pay too
much heed to those who are opposing
the introduction of this form of money
on no more worthy grounds than that it
will give them a little more work and
trouble The pending bill is clearly one
in the interest of the masses and the
indications are that its adoption cannot
ultimately be prevented Denver Post
