Nkiikaska leads them all, according to the monthly crop
roport of the department of agriculture. With a ten-year
average of 84, the corn crop on August i, ranked 86.5.
Unlhss a change in the program is made, wc of Alliance
arc, doomed to soro disappointment this fall. President
Roosevelt isn't coming our way. It's hard, but the Hhr
ai.d can stand it without a pang.
Tim Bee intimates that John N. Baldwin is becoming
soigrcat a mail that the wonder is so small a town as Coun
cil Bluffs can hold him. Yet the Bee endorses "Our Man
Mickey," the creature of John N. Baldwin and'his railroad
masters. ,
A Comparison,
" Comparisons aro odious," it has been truly said; and
for thnt reason the HuiuLn desires to go into the compari
son business just now for a minute or two, It wants to
line up "Our Man Mickey," the railroad tool, and W. H.
Thompson, tlio fearless, outspoken, incorruptible, forceful
representative of popular government. What does Mickey
stand for ? Submission of the people to selfish, greedy,
unprincipled corporation rule. And Thompson ? What
are the motives which animate him ? The same that have
moved every other advocate since the birth of the Ameri
can republic of popular government, of the principle that
to the people, not to a privileged few, belongs the inherent
right of shaping the policy and controlling the destinies of
a government which ib theirs by the unquestioned title of
inheritance. Does Mickey stand for the subjugation of
labor to the heartless, unfair behests of aggregated capital ?
Certainly he docs, in all of its infamous usurpation ot
the rights and privileges ' of the masses. Why ? Be
cause Ins nomination was dictated by the heads of the
Union Pacific, the Elkhorn and the Burlington railroad
companies, who, nine days before the assembling of the
misguided republican delegates at Lincoln, decided that
Mickey should bo tho nominee. la Thompson irrevocably
opposed to corporation rule? Unquestionably, yes. Why ?
Bccauso in all the years of his residence in Nebraska he
has persistently and consistently fought them at every turn
of the road. This ill the face of the fact that big, com
fortable ffics were temptingly held out to him. What
of Mickey, personally ? He is a banker, the best years of
whose life have been spent in the accumulation of wealth.
Gold not principle has been his motto. Mickey's inter
ests absolutely Mickey's have ever been uppermost in his
mind, regardless of every other consideration in the world.
He knows nothing of statecraft. His is the education of a
money-changer, a usurer, a Shyclock shorn of tho im
pulses that make men good, that make them fair, that
make them true, that make them men. Not a solitary trait
in his make-up that could possibly commend him to an in
dependent, thinking, self-respecting man, who' cannot
brook dictation and who revolts at the thought of bending
the knee to centralized power. And of Thompson ? What
of W. H. Thompson, as a man ? Born of humble, but
respectable parentage, he has forged his way single
haildcd and alone to the very front rank of Nebraska citi
zonship ; scorning to sacrifice principle for money and
power; refusing to smother an innate fondness for justice
and fairness among men, though high political honors be
his reward. How admirable must be the character of the
man, whose neighbors with one accord, irrespective of polit
ical opinions and beliefs, vie with oneapothcr in paying
tribute to his truth, to his his lofty conception of justice,
to his fairness and to his manliness ? In all candor the
Hkkald asks, can it be po'ssiblo that Mickey can defeat
Thompson ? And confidently and honestly the Heald an
swers its own question no it is not I

At this writing the outlook for the success of the fusion
state tickut this fall is reassuring. 1 If ;W. H. Thompson" is
not the next govornpt'of Nebraska, then the signs of the
times are deceiving. And thoy are rarely deceitful in this
western country.
Twbntv-I'IVE hundred is the size of Kinkaid's majority,
according to some of tho republican newspaper prognostic
cators of this district. Not one of them really believes any
thing of the kind; but they make the statement out of pure
buncombe. Patrick H. Barry will defeat Kinkaid. Mark
the prediction.
It is said upon what ought to bo good authority that
during the past five years 85,000 Americans have taken up
their abode in Canada. But tho statistician forgot to tell
us of the number that have returned, sadder but wiser, for
their experience. It is safe to say that fifty percent, of the
original 85,000 have renewed their allegiance to Uncle Sam.
' "Why does tho Herald make war on the railroads?"
asks a republican friend. The Herald does not wage war
upon them. It respects and esteems the railroad companies,
as such. It is as political bosses that the Herald cannot
countenance them. By no conceivable right is it their
privilege to enter the field of politics. And they must be
driven out of the political arena absolutely, for the welfare
of the common people and the perpetuity of our principles
of government. They must be our servitors not our masters.

marry, if the proper inducements were offered, would do.

The statement comes from New York that impo rters of
lemons prefer to leave their consignments at the custom

A federal judge his name is Jackson and he lives in
West Virginia has decided that it is a criminal act to sup
ply food to the striking miners. Isn't it queer that a work
ing man possessed of a grain of spirit and independence,
would countenance by his vote a party which upholds so
gross a decision as this? We say, isn't it queer?

Baldwin's Man Mickey Et At.
, John N. Baldwin's recent visit to Omaha seems to have
disturbed the equanimity of both the Hee and the World
Herald. They must shiver every time they look over to
wards Council Bluffs. Dcs Moines Register-Leader. (Rep.)
The Woild-Herald is not at all disturbed because of the
interesting attorney for the Union Pacific. The newspapers
give Mr. Baldwin the credit of dominating republican
councils, controlling republican conventions and directing
the hand of republican governors. So far as the World
Herald is concerned, it will do its best to convince the peo
ple of Nebraska that the republican party in this state is
owned body, soul and breeches by the corporations.
If the people of this state want corporation rule, if they
are anxious to surrender their liberties and the control of
their political affairs to tho railroads, they will go to the
polls and vote the corporation ticket. If the people are so
inclined, they will then vote this ticket:
For governor, Baldwin's man Mickey.
For secretary of state, Baldwin's man Marsh.
For commissioner of public lands and buildings, Bald
win's man Follmer. .
, For treasurer, Baldwin's man Mortensen.
For attorney-general, Baldwin's man Prout.
For congress in the First district, Baldwin's man
Burkett.
For congress in the Second district, Baldwin's man
Mercer.
For congress in tlic Third district, Baldwin's man Mc
Carthy. For congress in the Fourth district, Baldwin's man
Hinshaw.
For congress in the Fif th district, Baldwin's man Norris.
For congress in the Sixth district, Baldwin's man Kin-aid.
To be suro, it must not be understood that Mr.
aldwin is so important personally that he controls all
etc men. In this connection the name of Baldwin is used
rely as tho representation of corporation influence.
ese people, so far as their nominations are concerned,
e the creatures of the corporations and if elected to of-
they will render faithful service to their corporation
ters.
