The Independents carried Clay
county last year by majorities ranging
from »0 to 000. This year, so the Clay
Center Sun says, the Republicans
elected their entire ticket. Congratu
lations, Bro. l’almer.
The Stuart Ledger says Atkinson is the
banner Republican township of the
county, and The Frontier desires to
shake hands with the Ledger on that
point. Atkinson Republicans are earn
est, energetic workers, and are alwayB
united. _ _ •
What have free trader* to say about
. tbe McKinley bill now? In Ohio the is
sues were clearly national and the Re
publicans won grandly. Tbe victory
portends a grander and greater one next
year, and President Harrison will be re
elec ten sure enough. '
In Columbus, Mr. Post’s home, that
gentleman recetved 470 votes and Ed
gerton only seventy-nine. This shows
how Mr, Post stands at his own home.
Not only that but Mr. Post carried
every precinct in Edgerton’s home,
showing that he also stands well in the
home of his opponent. Hurrah for
Postl
If it was "boodle and beer’’ that
beat the Independent candidates,
as all their papers claim, It must have
been Independent voters who accepted
the "boodle and beer,” and in the event
’ of that being true it proves that a good
many of them are not honest and were
perfectly willing to be "boodled” and
“beered.”_
Ir Mr. Kinksid did so much for his
colleague, Mr. Bartow, why was it that
he received seventy votes in Chambers
and Mr. Bartow only thirty-five, not
running with his ticket? The people
can draw their own conclusions, but in
doing so it might be well to bear in
mind that Mr. K. did not accompany
hi* colleague to Chambers.
Munchauber, in last week's Tribune,
attempted to place himself right before
the people. He acknowledges that he
was hasty in writing what he did. and
then flys off the track and shouts about
another matter altogether. When
"Munch.” presents some arguments on
the subject matter under discussion,
The Frontier will present its side of
the case.
Chadron Journal: In Omaha a Dem
ocratic rally of 8,000 voters was ad
dressed by Governor Boyd Monday even
ing last, in which he declared for Edger
ton, and said no conscientious Democrat
could support Post. This accounts for
Kdgerton’s big vote in Omaha and other
cities where Boyd influence was rampant.
Some Independent who so glibly talks
aof Republican and Democratic combines
should explain the combination between
Boyd, the railroads and Edgerton.
A mi ago The Frontier prophesied
that if the Alliance went into politics it
would also go into decadence and in
time be disrupted. Our first prediction
has been verified and unless they now
and forever, as an organization, eschew
politics, we are C9nfident that the latter
part of our prediction will also be veri
fied. The Frontier would like to see
the Alliance kept together and we think
that it can accomplish much good for
the farmers if it keeps strictly within its
sphere—and results clearly show that its
sphere is not politics. Let them drop
politics at once and take up the things
which come within their sphere and our
word for it they wilt accomplish grand
good for themselves.
Hon. Ai.kued Bartow of Cbadron,
Republican candidate for district judge
from tlie west end, will be the collcnguc
of Judge Kinkaid for the next four
years, bis election being accomplished
by a plurality of about 800 over liar
bnugh. Mr. Hartow carried Dawes, Box
Butte, Sioux, Cherry, Brown, Rock and
(iolt counties. Considering the fact
that Mr. Bartow was only on one ticket
and bravely fought bis battle practically
singlchandcd he is deserving of much
praise and we consider bis clectionn
cause for great rejoicing by Republicans
throughout the district; and the follow
ing from the Cbadron Journal of last
Friday indicates that the Republicans
up that way are happy, and appreciate
Mr. Bartow: *
Messages this evening convey the joy
ful news that Alfred Bartow has invaded
the strongholds of the Independents and
carries them by good majorities. Com
plete returns give Bartow 128 majority
in llolt county,which elected him safely.
To clinch the matter a message followed
from ltock county announcing that Bar
low carried that county by 114. This
was the signal for the paean of triumph
and in fifteen minutes a big bonfire was
blazing on every street corner, fireworks
were popping, houses were illuminated,
anvils were booming and the band was
pluying "Hail to the Chief,” amid the
deafening cheers of crowds of happy
and enthusiastic people. It was a spon
taneous outburst of sincere rejoicing
and the people are happy.
The Frontier feels a pardonable
pride in the election of Mr. Bartow and
the handsome vote he received in Holt
county. We feel that it is an endorse
ment of straight politics and an indica
tion that the efforts of this paper in that
direction are appreciated. We do not
speak of this in any spirit of egotism and
for hope of praise—we simply did our
duty and only what we would feel called
Upon to do again if occasion required it.
Mr. Bartow feels very grateful to Holt
county Republicans who stood by him
and the latter send greeting to Dawes
county Republicans and rejoice with
them that their fayored son has been
chosen to such an honorable and exalted
position.
Two weeks before election the Ewing
Democrat contained the following con
cerning the circular letter of Chairman
Hazelel’s issued about the same time.
Read it:
A stray leaflet blew into this office
to day. Whcu the dust was removed
it proved to bo an old campaign circular
which some blockhead of a Republican
chairman had addressed to an Indepen
dent voter, giving him the usual gob of
taffy.' The disgusted Independent
dropped the harmless epistle and struck
out for O’Neil! in search of Boss Mul
len, who will be requested to turn on a
quantity of cold wind in the direction
of the indiscreet chairman. The best
laid plans, etc., etc., etc.
Trom’s idea of conducting a campaign
is simply to hide everything under a
half bushel, keep his office chair warm
and when any one makes a suggestion,
look wise and say, “saw wood.” Mr.
Hazelet believes in making a strong, ag
gressive campaign and on that line of
policy won a grand victory. What did
Trora. win last year? Nothing.
In the interest over treasurer and
clerk of the courts the vote on the minor
offices was lost sight of and it was not
known until the official canvas was
made that the Independent candidate
for coroner was elected, but such is the
case. Dr. Skelton is a young man of
good character and is well qualified for
the position. Furthermore, he is a
Republisan and we understand has
never been anything else, never sought
tlio Independent nomination and has
not been indentified with them in the
late campaign. The Independents can
hardly claim Mr. Skelton’s election as
an Independent victory. Mr. Skelton
resides at Page.
Now is the time to organize Repub
lican clubs for 1893. Let the campaign
of next year be one of'education and it
will surely be a successful one. Organ
ize Republican clubs throughout the
county. Let O'Neill Republicans take
the lead, organize a club, rent a room,
furnish it in good shape and keep good
Republican literature on hand at all
times. Let it be a place where Repub
licans from all parts of the county can
come and pass a pleasant evening and go
away feeling that they have been profit
ed as well as entertained. Rial Pies
dent Brennan's notice elsewhere and at
tend the meeting Saturday night.
A Worthy Citizen.
A very large number of citizens of
Holt county and especially of Stuart and
Stuart township, says the ledger, are
more than gratified over the election of
John Skirving, the Repnblican nominee
for clerk of the district court. Mr.
Skirving will make a good officer. His
qualifications are the best and he will
enter upou the duties of his office with
the best wishes of all for a successful
reign. The office has been bestowed
upon a well deserving man, a thorough
Republican, an ex-soldier and honor
able citizen. The only regrets in the
matter is that it will cause the removal
of an estimable family from our midst
increase Per Capita.
From the Omahu Bee:
The increase In the amount of money
in circulation in the United States in
the single month of October, was over
#30,000,000, the largest increase ever
made in one month. If this rate of in
crease should be maintained the quantity
of money available for the use of the
Ameiican people would grow about
eight times as fast, in proportion, as the
OFFICIAL VOTE OF HOLT COUNTY.

increase in tbe population of the country.
Such an expansion of tbe circulating
medium, without resorting to a fiat
currency, or opening our mints to a
fioodof silver from all parts of the world,
ought to satisfy all reasonable people.
It is not to be expected that such a rate
of increase will be maintained, and
doubtless conseiyative financiers will
say it is not desirable that it should be.
It is not necessary to tbe prosperity of
the country that the circulating medium
should grow eight times as fast as pop
ulation, and under existing laws must
continue to do so, while every dollar
that goes into circulation is sound and
is amply protected against depreciation.
So long as the country has a currency
of this kind all interests will be sequre
from injury, but there would be speedy
disaster to prevailing conditions if we
bad the free and unlimited coinage of
silver. ' __ _
The People’s Party.
Sioux City Journal:
. The election returns shows a rapid
decadence of the so-called People’s party
or the Southern Farmers’ Alliance. In
Kansas, where the Southern Alliance
acting virtually us a secret political
party had a great run last year, there
are great and almost universal losses.
The Republicans made corresponding
gains. The figures corroborate recent
statements to the effect that the mem
bership of the Alliance has fallen off
more than SO per cent. The craze in
Kansas is subsiding. The Farmers'
Alliance has been crippled and wrecked
on the breakers of partisan politics. The
lesults of tbe election in Nebraska and
South Dakota bear similar suggestions.
The Southern Alliance, in its more in
tense manifestations, .came up out of
tbe extreme southern states, and really
has its origin in agricultural conditions
which the abolition of slavery largely
produced. The agitation came at a
time when an abnormal situation bad
arisen in the western portion of Kansas,
Nebraska and the Dokotas. It spread
like a prairie fire over the arid region
where crop failure, debt aud low prices
bad combined to make tbe settlers*
morbid and discontented. It came to a
culmination, however, even in those
districts last year, when it got control
of the legislatures. The agitation in
these western states was due to these
abnormal conditions, and was doomed
to speedy subsidence. It made no con
siderable progress in any of the other
j ———
northern states. The attempt to trans
fer the vagaries and methods of the
Southern "Alliance into the prosperous
adjoining states of Iowa and Missouri,
where Like people were more happily
situated by reason qf older and stable
settlement, proved to be a complete
failure. The farmers simply turned
their backs. The appeals of the agitators
failed to elicit any heartiness of re
sponse. The old Iowa Alliance resolut
ly refused to be drawn into partisan
entanglements or to adopt the secrecy
and other methods used in Kansas, The
returns from Tuesday’s election probably
show the so-called people’s party, which
is the echo of the Southern Alliance in
politics, at the heighth of its career in
Iowa, and yet its vote is comparatively
small and inconsiderable. In Ohio the
indication is much more emphatic.
Special effort has been made in the late
campaign to organize the so-called
Peeple’s party. All the leaders of the
Southern Alliance through the west,
ihcluding Peffer and Simpson, were
marshalled in Ohio for the express and
avowed purpose of ‘/downing John
Sherman” and defeating the Republican
parly in the legislature. Out of all the
clamor and claims made on behalf of
the movement, it emerges from the
contest hardly visable to the naked
eye. Its insignificance is ridiculous.
All the evidence of the election goes to
show a subsidence of the third partyism
which made such sensational surges in
the arid belt east of the Rocky moun
tains last year.
