McKinluy's plurality, unoffi cially named at 850,000, ia the largest over given to a presiden tial candidate. . The American voter still knows a good . thing when he sees it. This 1900 census gives Ne braska's congressional districts the following population: First district 165,986, Second 162,756, Third 214,019; Fourth 188,466, Fifth 165,148, Sixth 164,365. Tim Washington Post calls at tention to the fact that f Mr. Bryan traveled ail the vay from Lincoln to Chicago to confcfwUli two former republicans, concern? ing the futnrc.o'f the democratic party. Poor old democracy. , Nkjwaska may break into President McKinlcy's cabinet. There is an impending vacancy in the attorney-generalship and John L. Webster has a chance of being asked to accept the posi tion. The state is certainly en titled to some recognition for" the result on November 6th. . Emiistkn has "laid down" on the proposition to contest the right of Governor-elect Dietrich, to take his Heat. Edmistcn's desperate and disreputable acts during the past half dozen years has disgusted cvcn his party fol lowers and tbc, refused to assist him in his antt-Dietnch fight. Tub good people of New York city arc startjng out bravely and" firmly in their fight against Crok crism and Tammanyism, and if they keep it up until the munici pal, election next springy Tam many will und6ubtedly ibe shorn of its power an'dlnfluchce.

' Doubtless ninny capitalists and uuiineaa men are asking tliem nelves this question. A prominent eaitcrri financier said a levy duys ago that the jrenult of the national election has given everybody con lideucc to go . ahead and lie ex pressed the opinion that the country la going to have enlarging prosperity. He pointed to the fact At... a. a 1 a i V mai iuc uainuce ot irnae in( tayor of the United, States for ten months of this yqar has becu$500,- 000.000 and that on ton of au cciun amount in each of the preceding two years. The money in ci renin tlon Ih now above $2,000,000,00q, al made secure beyond question by the election, The increase in ex ports, the great increase in rail road earnings and the maintenance of Industrial profits have gone be yond the calculations of everybody "This is evidence," said the financier,' 'of a force which must be recognized. It look to ine like a gigantic Impulse, the eiTectB o which no man can forsce." The indications favorable to an increased prosperity are abundant AU industries have awakened to gether. The demand for labor u the anthracite coal regions exceeds the supply, There 1b lack of labor in the iron industry ot western .Pennsylvania. Building lias re Vived in Chicago. New England woolqn and cotton mills interrupted in, oepicmoer ana uctooer, are again running on full time. New enterprises are being started and projected. ' Capital and labor are occupied as they have not boen-.for ' ijvvcr a year. The first two wveks of the second series of 'McKinlcy jroBperity," remarks the Phila delphia Press, points to records In business, product and profits, in employment for labor and rctufn for capital, which Will out-do the past three and one-half years. What arc the grounds for this confidence7 In the first place the assurance of the absolute security of the currency for at least five years, Whatever monetary legis- ation may be enacted within that time, the gold standard Is safe. In the second place the certainty that the pollcy of protection will not be ruthlessly -assailed. The next congress' may deem It expedient to modify the tariff and we think it altogether probable that this will be done, but it is uccdlcHs to say that a republican congress will not sacrifice protection, Thus the capital that is -going into new in dustrial plants and enlarging those already established is assured that for at least five years the policy under which our vast ndilstrial system has been built up win not uc auanuoneci, in the third place there is an abundant supply of; money vand it Is steadily ucrea'Bing. Finally, there is open ng before us the possibilities of a foreign trade with indefinite limits of expansion, which will enable us 0 pour the surplus products of our enterprise and industry Into world wide markets, preventing- over production nnd the rcactoin which that is iabc to occasion. " iCxIsting' conditions, therefore, arc as favorable ah'd promising for an increase of prosperity ascouId be desired and there appears no l'soii 46" think that it will not il I.

CANCER Sufferers from this horrible malady nearly always Inherit it -not necessarily from the parents, but may be from some remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs through several generations. This deadly poison may lay dormant in the blood for Scars, or until you reach middle life, then ic first little sore or ulcer makes its ap pearanceor a swollen gland In the breast, or some other part .of the body, gives the first warning. To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma nently all the poisonous viru9 must be eliminated from the blood every vestage of it driven out. Till S. S.
