Hon Charles Emory Smith postmas
ter general while at Chicago tho past
week said that Presidout MoKinloy wns
determined to bring about law and order
in tho Philippines Whon that was ac
accomplishcd tho future- of tho islands
and tho policy of this government in re
gard to thorn would bo decided by tho
pooplo through thoir representatives in
congress Whatover course was decided
upon tho executive and his cabinot
stood ready to carry out This is tho
terrible imperialistic policy that Mr
Bryan and others havo been thundoring
about It begins to look as if tho demo
cratic party would havo to bo hunting
for another now issuo on which to light
tho campaign of 1100 Thoy are in hard
luck
Tho ropoits that como ovor tho wires
from Manila regarding tho wish of tho
Filipino to quit thoir meanness and
surrender to tho American forces will
bo received with a groat sense of relief
and satisfaction by tho great body of
tho people No doubt it will provo a
disappointment to that class of patriots
who admire Agniualdo as they do Georgo
Washington but happily thoy aro in tho
minority With tho cessation of hostil
ities tho beneiicieut purposes of Amer
ican control can bo readily demonstrated
to tho inhabitants of tho islandsaud tho
wholo question of the future and our
connection with them can bo discussed
in a mojo rational way It is certainly
to be hoped that unconditional surrender
will soon be made to Gen Otis
Every form of foolishness has its par
ticular rage It is always gratifying to
note the decline of any ovil Tho sta
tistics clearly show that cigaretto smok
ing is on the wane For six years prior
to 1890 their production steadily in
creased That year the output was
4160000000 Tho figures for tho fiscal
year ending Juuo 30 1SUS show that
there was manufactured about 1000
000000 less and in faco of that fact
there was an increased foreign de
mand Iu tho crusade that has been
waged ngaiust the cigaretto tho press of
tho country has been foremost The
evideuces were so palpable as to the re
sults of using them that the young men
of the country have noted them and are
letting them more severely alone It is
a compliment to youug American man
hood
Senator Thurston lias taken pains
lately to reiterato his previous announce
ment that he would not be a candidate
for re election There really was no
need whatever of any such statement
Mr Thurstons recent exhibitions of
mental and moral erraticisui have been
bufficient to convince the people of Ne
braska that Eome other place would be
more suitublo to his genius rnthor than
tho stately senatorial ohambors His
poetic endoncies may bo but rovolalions
of a power that shall thrill tho world
and vet class him with Lord Uyron or
Oscar Wihlo but Nebraska is not sigh
ing for a poet senator The stato and
its interests demand n thoughtful prac
tical level headed manly man in the
souate and such a man tho republicans
will choose as tho successor of John M
Thurston

A CJrcat Scheme That Fulled
Tho grand stand play of Messrs Lowls
Shophordson publishers of tho Jour
nal in attempting to compel pooplo to
do business with them bos fallen flat
Slnco Postmastor Sproohor left tho
Journal last fall tho paper haB been
gradually drifting into inoouoas dosuo
tndo and tho situation was becoming
dosporato A fow mouths ago during a
consultation botwoon tho partners as to
what should bo dono to bolster up thoir
fallon fortune one of them ovolvod n
beautiful idoa I havo it I ho ex
claimed wo will pad our circulation
and whon tho timo comesjwe will force
overy saloon man and druggist in tho
county to givo ub IiIb notlco Eureka I
Now tobuslucssl
Tho following week pooplo in nil parts
of tho county many of whom had nover
boforo known there was such a paper as
tho Journal rocoived a copy of it with
tho luinouucomout that tho prico had
boon cut to 50 oouts a yoar Whoro tho
rccipiout failed to subsciibo for tho 50
cont paper aud about tho timo whon ho
was ready to loavo it in tho postoillco
marked refused thoro camo limping
along through tho mails a lotter an
nouncing that a man whoso name it
was not necessary to mention had paid
for tho Journal to bo sont to tho recipi
ents address for a certain number of
months tho timo always boing so calcu
lated as to cover tho mouth of April
during which tho liquor notices were to
bo published
Then along nbout tho middloof March
tho scheme was rlpo and tho bright
young men of tho Journal proceeded to
tho next stop which was to issuo a
warning to liquor mon and druggists
that thoir notices must bo published in
that paper because it had tho largest
circulation in tho county threatening
that unless their domands wore oboyod
they would filo remonstrances against
the issuanco of licenses This threat
was not only made against tho liquor
mon of Norfolk but against those of
Madison as woll becauso it was big
gamo that tho young mon wore aftor
Human nature is a peculiar institu
tion but thoro are certain traits that pre
dominate iu tho breast of nearly overy
individual When an attempt is mado
to drivo a man to do a thing bo ho of
high or low degroo ho usually develops
tho characteristics of tho broncho aud
bucks That is what tho liquor men
did thoy bucked Instead of falling
over each other to rush their notices to
tho Journal that paper only rocolvqd
ono little 300 uotico from among the
12 or 15 published in Norfolk aud nono
from Madison or other towus And this
was all tho profit the youug mon of tho
Journal derived from their great schomo
which included the wasting of much
good whtto paper worth three ceuts n
pound of anyones money worth more
before it was printed than after upon a
cold and unappreciativo public Tho
young men however had made a threat
that thoy would remonstrate against tho
issuance of licenses nud to make that
bluff good they filed formal protests
agaiust all applicants in Norfolk who
had not published their notices iu the
Journal
When those protests came up for
hearing before tho council Saturday
oveuiug the pins were knocked from
under the young mon so quick that they
havo not stopped falling yet nud thoy
still dont kuow just where thoy are at
Thus endoth tho closing chapter of a
great scheme Conceived iu greed fos
tered in misrepresentation it failed of
fruition The moral to this is thntit is
seldom safe to attempt to exercise a gas
pipo cinch Tho American spirit which
proclaimed millions for defeuso not
one cent for tribute is as strong today
as it was over a century ngo and applies
to matters small as well as large

There wns a meeting of little Ameri

of that city promptly met and passed
resolutions condemning such demonstra
tions as calculated to demoralize the
troops cast a slur on tho president and
bolittlo nnd humiliate America In tho
oyos of tho world
The demand of Gen Otis for tho un
conditional surrender of tho Filipinos
who aro lightiug under Agniualdo has
tho true ring to it There is no uso fool
ing with those pooplo Thoy Bhould bo
mado to understand that American sov
ereignty over tho islands for the present
is an uudeuinblo foot The sooner thoy
understand It tho better It is to bo
hoped that hostilities aro about over and
that the timo is near at haud whon our

a great duty to porform toward these

America for tho world and tho world

and courageously wo must now act upon
and cany into effect that proposition
A now and splendid era rich iu hither

The Secretary of the Navy Speaks
Different members of tho presidents
cabinot havo recoutly given expression
to thoir own viows regarding tho con
dition of affairs in tho Philippines but
among thorn all no wordB havo been
more significant than thoso uttered by
Hon John D Long of Massachusetts
before tho Essex club of Boston on
Dowoy Day
They are worthy of uoto especially
for two reasons Mr Loug is secretary
of tho navy a department of tho gov
ernment that has bcon in constant touch
with tho actual prosecution of tho war
and whoso officers and men have gained
such glorious victories Again nmoug
nil tho men Mr MoKinley called into
his official family nono have a finer rep
utation for natural conservatism com
bined with splendid attainments and
culture and spotless personal character
than haB tho Massachusetts member
Ho is tho furthest removed from any
thing that would savor of rashness in
his make up Consequently his speech
will bo read with unusual interest by
his countrymen as disclosing tho mind
of the president whose warm personal
friend as well as advisor he is
Ho strikes out from tho shoulder in
the beginning of his addresa saying
I believe that no more uupatriotio ut
terance or one more unjust to tho gov
ernment of oar country has been uttered
than tho stnteinent which I see now and
thou that the treatment of tho Cubans
by Spain or the Armenians by the Turks
is not to be compnred with our course
toward the Filipinos in wanton aud de
liberate cruelty He dismisses this
chargo by saying that those who makn
it sacrifice tho truth to the embellish
ments of rhetoric Not only is there no
foundation in fact for such a criticism
but to his personal kuowledgo the wires
have been kept busy by the presideut
urging conciliatory action nnd kind
treatment of the insurgents aud that
all wounded prisoners have been sent to
tho hospitals where they havo received
the kindest care
Speaking of the Philippine iblands
Secretary Long frankly says Person
ally I should havo boon veiy glad that
this elophant had nover been put upon
our hands Hnt at tho ondof tho wnr
tho Islands were on our hands To havo
abandoned them would havo been to
leavo all their property and interests in
astute of chaos
Ho very clearly demonstrates that
whilo our government was tiying to ex
tend tho ollvo blanch of penco to tho
Filipinos incited by Agniualdo thoy
sought to destroy llfo and proporry at
Mnnllu which wo wore by tho law of
nations sworn to protect Ho again
voices tho policy of tho administration
by stating tho lines on which it Is work
ing
commission of nblo mon is now at
work socking such information as will
load to a proper adjustment of existing
differences Aftor law and order hns
been secured through tho efforts of tho
army navy aud tho commissioners tho
wholo problem will bo placed in tho
hands of congress where it bolongs nnd
it will bo for thnt body rotlecting tho
wishes of tho pooplo to tako such action
regarding thoir proper disposition as
sooms fit
Tho secretary closed his remarks iu
thoso words
My personal viows are of very littlo
cousequonco but I havo nready ex
pressed thorn to tho effect that I should
bo glad to boo ovory stop tnken toward
their ultimate solf govcrnmont ns soon
aB thoy show their capacity for it and ns
soon ns there shall bo proper guarantees
of ordor and protection to property and
organization of govornment in a stablo
manner
Secretary Long has dono patriotic sor
vico in thus so simply nnd candidly dis
posing of n lot of rubbish which is ap
pearing in print from tho minds of men
more garrulous than thoy are just and
whoso prejudices and ambitions compel
them to ignore truth and history
In view of his words and those of
others who stand close by tho president
and havo a right to bo considered as his
representatives togother with Mr Mo
Kinloys own statements and actions
tho attitude of tho men who are hurry
ing and scurrying over tho country de
nouncing the imperialistic designs of
tho administration are as absolutely ri
diculous aB they are utterly contempt
