Ir the mid-road movement cuts but little ice, why did the fusion candidates' make such strenuous but vain efforts to have the mid- road convention endorse them? C..II. Dietrich, the republican candidate for governor, has been visiting portions of the state and everywhere is making friends and votes. He is a straightforward, manly business man, is not a professional politician, and has a "record that cannot be assailed. So long as the mid-road popu lists voted witn tlic tUHioutsts in Nebraska they were bully good icllows, out now mat tucy nave a state ticket of their own and intend to support it, they arc called politi cal renegades and mountebanks by the fuBioniBtB. The democrats and fusionists who arc inclined to guy Roosevelt's record as a soldier, arc painfully silent as to Bryan's military record. Both the republican nominees have marched through the enemy's country, charged the enemy's Hucb and faced the enemy's bullets. Bryan resigned his commission lust before tils rcrnmcnt was ordered to the front. Both the Denver Times and the Denver Republican, free silver rc publican papers that espoused the cause of Bryan in 1896, arc now against him and his ticket. And by the ,way Colorado, which was so unanimous lor lsryan in ltt'Jo, can be counted a mighty close state this year. There has been a big change in conditions and senti ment in that state during the past four years. ... ! Ill fc I 111! The fusionists will tell you that McKinlcy prosperity is only skin deep, PerhapH they are right, but there is no question, as experience proved, about the Cleveland brand of hard times having reached to the jointsaud mar row of the business man and laborer. Skin deep republican prosperity ib a thousand fold better than bone deep democratic adver sity. But as to the lasting quality of McKinlcy prosperity, we feel con- fident that a large majority of the yoters of the nation are willing to risk it and will cast their vote (or the republican ticket In November. The United States continues to give persistent and consistent evi dence of absolute good faith toward Cuba. Today is published the decree whereby a general election is ordered to take place September 15, at which thirty-one delegates will be clioseti by the various provinces to form a constitutional convention to frame the fundamental law of the republic. At no point in the entire record of American intervention and guardianship can evidence be found to suggest that there wan ever the Blicrhtcst disposition to ieuore or evade the disclaimer by the United States of territorial designs upon Cuba. Washington Star. Thhkk is apparently no need of any woman remaining' an old maid. A Chicago girl invested eighty-five cents in advertising and received 153 proposals from men of all elastics and conditions, Those fellows who pose as "Abe Lincoln republicans" must have an awful time swallowing Adlai Stevenson, who in the early sixties lost no opportunity to declare the war a failure and give the "johnnies" all the comfort at his command, Through the generosity of D. 15, Thompson, twelve hundred mothers and children of the city of Lincoln are enjoying a week's outing at Chautauqua park at Beatrice. It will be a week of out-door enjoy ment, entirely without cost for living or transportation. The election this fall is simply a business proposition: Do the business men and working men want to trade the present condi tions for the conditions which existed four years njroV Do they want a return of Coxcy's armicB, soup nouses, idle laborers and bankrupt business men? The American Farmer, which takcB no part in politics, truly says that '-it is better to know that wool is sellinir at 30 cents a pound in Boston and New York than to bother your head with a lot of rubbish about 'imperialism." No body is afraid of having "imperial ism," but everybody is interested In having irood prices for farm products. Since April last the deposits in the national banks of the state, outside of Omaha and Lincoln, have increased over a million dol lars while the deposits in the state banks have increased oyer threp million dollars since March 12th last. During the same periods the loans and discounts of the state batiks have decreased oyer two millions. This indicates that the residents of this great agricultural state arc feelinir the clTects of Mc- Kinlcy prosperity to a very gratify ing extent. Congressman Neville has brok en out in a new place, lie is alarmed. The recent taking of the census has given him a nervous fit, and he sees in it a conspiracy to de feat the "reform" forceB. The erudite congressman from the Sixth district unbosomed himself to a re porter at umatia tlie otlier evening and told of the ills that may bctall the fusionists of the state because the census happened to be taken before an important election. He also told the reporter that the Ger mans of the Btate were very much wrought up over the prospect ot the republic being transformed into an empire and of the people being iroverned by force. Mr. Neville in tlie role ot an alarmist is an inter esting study. He is agitated by the prospects ot republican control ot the state. Kepublican success in the sixth district would throw the congressman out of a job. and he is certain that there could be no permanent prosperity if he were compelled to earn his living instead of drawing ins salary from the government.

Chair man Lindsay has tho mnchlnery in splondid working order and is doing soino vory olTcctlvo work. Thus far tho work has been largoly preparatory, proparatlon3 boiug made for a vigorous oducatioual campaign, beginning at an early dato and continu ing to tho closo.

It is a matter patent to everybody that tho fannors of Nebraska havo been prosper ous to a degrco never beforo attained, during tho last four years uudor Prosi dout MoKinloy. Thoy havo had good pricos for their crops and tho yield has been largo. Both of thoso aro essential to prosperity on tho farm. Moro mort gages and debts havo been paid off, moro homes havo boon purchasod, moro farm improvements havo been made aud hotter timos gonorally havo pre vailed in Nebraska tho last four years, than for any othor four years in tho history of tho stnto. Cnuio uf Good Prices. Tho Republican party claims, and rightfully, too, tho credit for prosperity. It accomplished this in sovoral ways, tho principal causes boing in furnishing employment to American labor at in creased wuges, aud in building up and oxtonding American trado in foreign countrios. It is a mattor of history that under Domocratio rule freo soup housos hud to bo maintained in nearly all tho largo citios of tho United States to alle viate suffering aud distress among tho working classos. Domocratio policios had closed tho faetorios and workshop-. and labor was soroly distressed through want of employment. Thoro aro moro than 10,000,000 working pooplo em ployed in tho workshops and factories of this country. Many of theso wero idle and thoso who wore not wero com polled to work at reduced vagos. Thero was, therefore, a largo demand on public charity, tho ultimato outcomo of whloh was tho establishment in tho largo cities of free Enup houses. McKinloy's elcotion and tho conso qnont ovorthrow of Domocratio policies was followed by a comploto transition. xno lactones wero oponcu, labor was, glvon omploymont at incronsod wages. tho soup houses woro closod, and tho domand and consumption of farm pro duets and brcadstuffs greatly inoroasod, Undor Domocraoy a largo por cout of tho laboring classos llvod on freo soup, Undor Republicanism laboring peoplo aro living on moat, potatoos, caunod goods, brcadstuffs, aud in short, uro well supplied with all tho nocossaries of life. Today 10,000,000 laboriug pooplo on their way homo from work stop aud ordor a pouud or two of moat, a supply of butter, eggs aud othor eatablos, whoroas four years ago many of thosj pooplo boarded at freo soup housos and tuoso who am not ltvou on scanty ra tions, This ohaugo has greatly in creased tho demaud aud consumption of farm products, has incroasod tho price of farm products, and has contributed largoly to tho prosperity of tho fannors of Nebraska and other agriculturttl states. Undor Republicanism now markots havo boon opened up for tho products of Amoricau labor aud of American larms, with tho inovltablo result that tho foreign demand for American pro ducts has in tho last fow years boon substantially increased. The increase in tho prico of farm products aud in tho wages of labor in protected industries has in tho last four years put into tho pookots of tho producers of this oouutry upwards or $3,000,000,000, an amount almojt iiB largo as tho cost of tho civil war. It makos a big dlfforonco to tho farm ors of tho Uultod Statos, in tho way of pricos, whothor tho labor olotnout con Bumos each day 130,000,000 pounds of meat, 6,000,000 loaves of broad, 5,000, 000 pounds of butter, 3,000,000 bushols of potatoos, 1 ,000,000 dozens of oggs, aud a corresponding vohuno of othor food products or whothor it shall bo fed at froo soup housos (as it was uudor Democratic rule) aud this vast demand for farm products destroyed. It is for this reason that the Repub lican party claims tho credit for making tho fanner and laborer prosperous, aud It Is for this roasou that it looks to them, with confiding faith in thou in tolligeuce, judgment, and gratitudo for their support in tho campaign, and at the polls iu November. Would Dishonor th l'lni;. Ohuirmuu Jones of tho Domocratio national committee is out with tho bold announcement that: "If Bryan is elected his first olllcuil net will be to recall tho American soldiers from tho Philippines and leave thok islands to cure for themselves." Bryan, With charaeteriDtio strategy, refuted to confirm or deny Jtho statement of his ttntmttnl dinlnini lint thorn in nvnrv national cnnirnian, unt tiiero is ovory reason tO UOliOVO tlmt tllO Statements attributed to Uhutrnmn Jones distinctly . . i I foreshadow that part of Mr. Bryan's foreign policy in tho ovent of his cloc tiou as president. Tho blighting effect of such a policy needs hardly to bo pointed out. It would disgraco tho United States iu tho eyes of all tho civilized nations of tho world, for it would put this nation in tho attitudo of deserting a post of duty nt a tlmo aud in a way that would re flect selfishness, ingratitudo, and in ability to dischargo tho high obligations imposed by enlightened civilization. Such a policy would placo tho United States in tho rolo of coward and would hold this nation up to tho scorn, con tempt and humiliation of tho world iu gouoral. All tho world knows, and tho pooplo of tho United States know, though Bryan nud his advisers may not think so, that insurrection, not war, provails in tho Philippines. Roving bauds of bandits and savages, not nrnilos, aro going about tho islands perpetrating murder, robbory and other high crimes. Tho world at largo is holding tho em- piro of China to blamo for tho cruol murders and outrages perpetratod by tho "Boxors." Tho United States holds tho same po sition to tho pcOplo of tho Philippine islands, so far as maintaining law and ordor is concerned, as tho government of China to its people, and tho murder ous Boxors of China aro to tho law-abid ing peoplo of China what Againaldo and his followers uro to tho law-abid ing, peaceful populace of tho Philippines. Tho peoplo of tho Philippines may bo capablo of self government, but contin uous strifo and warfaro havo impover ished theso poople, tho islands aro proved upon by roving bands of savages, and it is beyond tho ability of thoso peo plo, without tho aid of tho United States, to rcstoro domestic tranquillity or form a government of their own. Tho treaty of Paris, voted for by Sena tor Allen of Nebraska and advocated at that tlmo by Bryan, placed tho Philip pines under control of tho United States and tho United Statos is morally bound to establish pcacoaud domestic tranquil lity iu theso islands at tho earliest pos sible moment. To call tho troops home whilo the people of tho islands nro still boing terrorized and shocked by tho wholosalo commission of atrocious crimes would bo to commit u crimo against humanity and ono that would forovcr remain a stigma on American citizenship and patriotism. Apart from tho commercial import ance of retaining tho Philippines it is tho highest duty of tho United States to prosccuto conquest until insurrec tion, robbery aud discord shall bo sup pressed and tho safety of tho lives and property of the law-abiding pooplo of tho islands established. Thoro aro a largo number of Ameri cans, Germans, French, Scandinavians, and poople of othor civilized nations in tho islands, besidos a largo number of natives who aro friendly to tho Ameri can peoplo. Would Bryan withdraw tho troops aud exposo all theso peoplo to tho ravagos of outlaws, muruorors aud thlovos? Would ho Withdraw tho troops and thus givo Againaldo licouso to con tinuo his campaign of rapino aud mur der? Bryan says Aguinaldo is a pa triot. Thero woro pooplo who said that of Bonediot Arnold, Aaron Burr and JoiTorson Davis. Patriots do not bar- tor and soil for money tho confldonco and secrets of their country. Thoy do not consplro to rob and murder a peoplo who in tho interest of humanity alouo nccoptod that responsibility and that duty which involves tho saoriflco of lifo aud millions of money. Aguinaldo a patriot! Porish tho thought. History recitos that Again aldo agreed with tho Spanish govern mout to botray his doludod followers upon tho payment of $800,000. History further recitos that after having ro ceived aud dissipated tho monoy Aguin aldo broko faith with Spain. Ho af fectod to poso as a friend to tho United Statos, but tho diagnostic oyo and por coptivo mum oi Aunurai uowey soon discovered that ho was playing fulso aud for tho purposo of using tho Unitod statos to further his own interests. Tho oillcial messages on fllo at Washington will show that at no timo did Admiral Dowoy impose confldonco in tho good lalth or Aguinaldo. Un tho contrary, Aguiuauio's deportment was such as to causo Admiral Dowoy to mistrust him from tho very start. And yet, with tho blood of American citizens on his hands. and with a record stained by atrocious crimes, unexampled duplicity and por lldy, Bryan would withdraw tho troops and placo tho Philippine islands at tho morcv of this monster of iniquity.
