"A little knowledge is a dangerous thing , " said Pope , but they didn t have to pay tuition to colleges in his age. Nowadays "a little knowledge is an ex pensive thing. " Tiie Rushville llecorder enthusiastic ally exclaims , "Long live the presi dent I May he long be scared in the councils of the nation ! " Just so. We would be glad to spare him from this time on forever. The republican press is unanimous in saying that t'the president's message is lengthy and exhaustive , " and for ouce we agree with our misguided brethren. This refers more particularly to the liushville Recorder. In a recent edition of the State Jour nal ten editorials were printed , and within a week ten of them were proven to be lies , but we admire that paper nevertheless. iTou can always depend upon it e.ipousing the cause of repub licanism. Exactly 16,721 voters who cast ballots at the election last month failed to vote for either Reese or Holcomb This is a strong protest against machine methods , corporation cormorants and pass grab bers , and perhaps the various party managers will come to realize it some day In the Ram's Horn of last week is a \ colored frontispiece that should cause expansionists and imperialists to realize where they are at. It is entitled , "Christianity as seen by the Pagan. " Upon her face is an expression ofeeruel- ty and greed , within her light hand is the cruel bayonet ot civilized warfare and within her left is a bombshell la beled "War , " to which i.s attached a burning fuse. Suspended from her belt : s an open volume The Bible in which the commandments ' ' are : 'Thou shalt not covet , " and ' -Thou shalt not kill , " while at her feet dead and dyinn brown men cover the earth. Atkinson Plairalealer. Senator Mason , of Illinois , intro duced the following resolution in con gress last week. Of course it won't be passed , but we feel safe in saying that it undoubtedly represents the views of most Americans : Whereas from the hour of achieving their own independence the people of the United Mutes have regarded with sj'mpathy the struggles of other people to free themselves from European dom ination : Therefore , Resolved by the Senate of the United States , That we watch with deep and abiding interest the heroic battle of the South African Republic against cruelty and oppression , and our best hopes go out for the full success of their deter mined contest for liberty. The Nebiaska Independent analyzes the vote of Cherry count } ' at the recent election as follows : In 1897 , Cherry cotintv east 123& votes for Post and Sullivan. Sullivan's majority 12-1. In 1898 , Cherry county cast 1.115 votes for Ilayward and Poynter , a loss of 123 in total vote. Of this loss o came oil the republicans and 118 off the fusionists - sionists , making a net loss of 113 for the latter. Poyntor's majority , 9. In 1899 , Cherry county cast 1,270 votes for Reese and Ilolcomb , a gain of 38 over 1897 and 161 over 1S98. Compared , to 1897 , the gain of 88 in total vote went to Reese , and in ad dition 39 fusionists felt like upholding the Sulu treaty by voting the republi can ticket , a net gain of 161 for the re publicans. Compared to 1898 , the republicans gained 82 , fusionists 79 , a net gain of 3 for the former. Ilolcomb's majority. 6. There was never a more infamous falsehood printed than the constant assertion that the Dingley bill has produced a surplus in spite of our enor mous war expenses. In the first place there were bonds issued to the amount of $200,000,000. Next there was a Avar tax imposed. That tax brought to the treasury , according to U. S. Treasurer Robert's report , last year $46,553,419 in increase of customs and § 102,530.520 increase from internal revenue. Here is an increase of taxation , outside of the Dinglev bill , which has put into the treasury $148,089,939. Even this enormous increase , added to the hiirh tariffs of the Dingley bill , will not pay the expenses of this government under McKinley and imperialism. The pres ent rate of expenditure ) is almost as ' great as in 18G3 and 1864. and is greater - ' er than any other year of our history as \ u nation. In those two years we had over a million soldiers in the field fighi- iug the most bloody battles of all his tory. > ebraska Independent.

Lew gave us a fine pair of ducks the night before Thanksgiving Day , and we are now anxiously waiting for some good Christian to make it pos sible 'for us celebrate Christmas with a feast. Tom Yearnshaw was up from his place at Clearwater , this week , and took occasion while here to celebrate his 48th birthday. Tom couldn't help the fact that his birthday occurred while he was here , as he had forgot ten the matter until it was called to his attention. Incidentally he fished and hunted a little.
