According to populist doctrine as it
is exemplified by Eeinert a man to be
41 good partisan must change his views
on public questions as soon as one of
the opposition agrees with him This
5paper was always in opposition to the
amendment recount and because The
Republican agrees with it it does not
propose to change base Had the
er newspaper men opposed the court
house bonds Beinert and the goose
very fortunate foi the party that all
populists are not of his stripe
What good is a consarned thief any
way A few more shining examples
like the one in question the killing of
Frank Cole and a mans hard earnings
will be perfectly safe to hang or tie in
the stable over night without using
him the trouble of sitting up and
watching it with a Winchester If
Bro Berkley or any one else contem
plates rustling saddles on this side of
the bloody waters of the Niobrara our
tumble advice to them is to keep
their weather eye to the north leave
no trail and travel more than sixty
miles on the first day To young
bloods who have a tendency to pose as
-toughs this mayound jokey but put
into practice it might prove more
serious than picturesque Springview
Herald
Democrats will note with a degree
of satisfaction almost akin to elation
that the Dingley bill puts a tax of
144 per pound on tea and adds 48
cents per barrel to the internal reve
nue tax on beer These tariffs are
purely for revenue not a pound of tea
being produced in this country and
beer what is used here being strictly
a borne product But that which
elates us most is the fact that the levy
ing of these taxes by the f ramers of
the new tariff Mil is a direct admission
that a protective tariff cannot be a rev
enue tariff This move of our repub
lican friends places them in line with
democratic teachings and we congrat
ulate them upon their conversion If
they will now put wool and hides and
other raw material on the free list of
their tariff bill their conversion will al
most be complete
One of the richest things which has
occurred during the present extraordi
nary session of congress occurred Mon
day when Congressman Bailey made
the republicans take water The house
had tinder consideration a bill appro
priating 50000 for the relief of Amer
ican citizens in Cuba and unanimous
consent was asked for its passage
The Texan arose and said he would of
fer no objection if he was allowed to
offer an amendment This was object
ed to by the republicans and amid the
confusion which followed the house
adjourned until Thursday The
amendment Bailey wished to offer was
one in favor of recognizing the Cubans
as belligerents and the fire eaters who
last fall were so anxious that we go to
Caba and lick the socks offn Spain
the patriotic oratorg who were so loud
in denunciation of President Cleveland
because he wouldnt at once declare
war didnot cre face that innocent
little amendment and go on record with
their votes Oh the manliness of it
The honesty of their action How dif
ferent the meaning of patriotism when
tfcftBWiSPratlon changed

The printers ot the northwestern
part of Nebraska are called to convene
at Valentine June 5 to perfect an or
ganization in the interest of printers
We will liKely attend if nothing pre
vents Norden JBorealis
Dont let anything prevent you Col
Brewster because this is going to be a
splendid meeting
The editors of the Sixth congression
al district will meet in Valentine on
Saturday June 5 We are going be
cause Bob Good is treasurer and it
wont cost a cent- Atkinson Graphic
Thats good Col Jenness and good
ness gracious what a good time -Good
and his good brethren of the press in
Valentine will show you
The Tribune acknowledges the re
ceipt of an invitation from the editor
ial fraternity of Valentine to attend a
meeting of the pencil pushers of North
west Nebraska which we gladly accept
fcnowing such meetings are beneficial
to not only the attendants but to the
people they represent Such meetings
give information whereby editors may
pen ideas furthering the interests of
berry would very likely have been an their communities -to a great extent-
earnest advocate of thn issue Tfc is t ayamas xrioune
Bight you are Col Lounsbury and
the sentiments expressed have secured
for you a nice little place on the pro

The association should appoint a
committee to draft some kind of legis
lative measure for protection and in
duce every paper in the state to run it
as standing matter in the editorirl col
umn When the time comes for again
placing in nomination candidates for
the legislature let all papers drop par
tisanship on the one office and unite in
supporting only thecandidates pledged
to enact into law such measures as the
press may demand Alliance Grip
The suggestion is excellent and we
will be very sorrv if Col Broome is not
present to advocate his idea in person
The press united should be able to se
cure any and all legislation it desires
and the people at large can rest assured
that the press will ask for nothing un
just or unreasonable
Once more this paper feels con
strained to call attention to the laxity
with which our divorce laws are en
forced or rather the freedom with
which they are broken or disobeyed
Last fall we called attention to a case
where a couple were married about two
weeks afterone of the parties had ob
tained a divorce the law being evaded
by having the ceremony performed in
an adjoining state More recently a
marriage occurred where one of the
parties had been divorced less than six
months without the more or less ex
pensive formality of leaving the state
being indulged in The parties simply
swore to the customary affidavit that
no impediment existed to their mar
riage thus adding perjury to the other
crime The Democrat does not wish
to be quoted as being in opposition to
remarriage after a divorce has been
obtained but it does most strenuously
object to having the state laws broKen
with such impunity Divorce and
marriage are serious things and should
not be treated lightly Laws are made
to be obeyed but the divorce law bids
fair to become as dead a letter as the
law which forbids treating
The pre sent session of congress is
the thirteenth extraordinary session
called by a president since the estab
lishment of the Union And the
Cuban policy of this administration
was announced on May 13 And the
senate finance committee which had
charge of the Dingley tariff bill is
composed of thirteen members And
the administration is in a hard row of
stumps anyhow
Omaha has secured the Indian sup
ply depot which was formerly located
