Where are those who were certain
that ten days would be amply sufficient
to transact the business for which the
extra session was called?
Tub territories that have applied for
statehood will do well to muzzle some
of their fool-advocates whose talk Is
^ constantly injuring their chances.
Conoress may soon be called upon to
j. decide between the retention of the pro
tective tariff or the establishment of

Jerry Simpson is mistaken in saving
that the democraitic party had become
the Cleveland party. Only one wing of
that party has yet been Glevelandized.
The men who talk about massing an
I army at Washington composed of one
million of the unemployed, are promis
ing candidates for the fool-killer’s club.
a u&t uemocrauc senatorial steering
committee seems to have got tied up
with the running gear of the ship, after
having been made groggy by an over

"Yillow Jack” is creating more
excitement down south than the prosi

It is said that the president recently

dead should take care of its dead.
Tnn number of unemployed working
men furnishes a strong argument for a
temporary prohibition of immigration.

continue coming when there is not
work enough for our own people.
Members of congress were prompt
enough In passing a joint resolution

their mileage now, instead of in Decem
ber, but they found the usual obstacles
to progress when public business was
proposed.
Tins republican press say that the
election of Cleveland means the entire

crate, including the United 8tates senate.
How we smile.—Sun, Oct. 27, ’Oa.

Cleveland was elected. The democrats
have entire control of the • government.
The result is an open book. How we

_ Wanted, a truthful editor for The
Feohtieb. Apply to the republican
P*rty of Holt county.—Bun.
Tee Frontier will return the com
pliment by stating that the democratic
pnrty of Holt county would like a demo
cratic editor for the independent Sun.
Qua Doyle or Mike Long are both
qualified.
Populist congressmen appear to
‘ *Wnk that black-guarding national
banks is all they have to do to prove
| themselves statesmen. Even if every
* charge ever brought against these banks
were true, and everybody knows they
y •**> *• * role, anything else, this would
i. Bot be the time to make a fuss about it
? In congress. The country never needed
: the assistance of the banks more than it
does at this time.

Ji, - Th* Wandering Jew seems to be in
sulted. He intimates that someone has
^ attempted to buy him at a price that
"would make a Hindoo blush.” You
isgi ehould nominate your price, Mr. Kautz
man, and not blame people for attempt
ing to purchase you for what you are
jfr currently reputed to be worth. A man
who would offer over 910 for your in
fluence would be very reckless, consider
: lag the hard times.
The restoration of public confidence
. will not be complete, nor the textile
Industries in a sound condition, till the
tariff question is solved or abandoned.
'At present the commission houses are
doing little or no business. The re
establishment of currency on a sounder
basis will promote public confidence
sufficiently to enable them to do a hand
to mouth business, but to enable them
to go ahead full speed it will be neces
sary for congress either to formulate itt
tariff changes at once or to announce
that no changes will be made for twe

Tub editor of the Bun den lei Hint "it
Is a fact that for a consideration the
Bun’s editor knifed members of bis own
party and worked for members of the
‘republican thieving ring.’”—Sun.
It is easy enough to deny, hut when
we reflect that the Sun printed a large
Juicy bar docket for Clerk Skirring, and
that Skirving told The Frontier that
lie owed it to McIIugh for campaign
services, it looks ns though something
more than a denial will he required to
convince people that the Sun man is
like unto Ccesar’s wife.
Tiie Independent pats John Hopkins
on the hack foi refusing to settle with
Scott nnd parades the idea that he saved
for the county $:)00 by the refusal.
The Frontier would like Mr. Kautz
mun to figure out the amount of money
it will cost the county to redeem the
lands sold in Paddock township for
taxes which were paid to Hopkins nnd
then tell the people how much they
have been saved. If he is nn adept at
figures he will find that the tax payers
nre In the hole on account of John's
"understanding of the law and his
rights.”
--
TnE Frontier has howled very much
and even lied about the allowance of in
dependent supervisors. Our curiosity
is excited to know why one of its saint
ly republican members, S. D. Dutton,
hnd in hills at the July session for $87.
Will the jumping jacks please make
this plain?
The Frontier has often remarked
that the supervisor system is an expen
sive luxury and we reiterate the state
ment. In regard to this particular bill
of Dutton’s, we have only to say that
we suppose it was for labor performed
ns it was allowed by an independent
board, and certainly they would not do
anything wrong. It compares very
favorably, however, with claims filed
and allowed up to the same time by
Honest John Crawford, who claims and
receives the neat little sum of $157.
Tna Frontier Is howling for Gus
Doyle for postmaster, Thnt is right.
Gus was a supporter of Scott, we ure
informed, to "get even” with democrats,
and it is strongly suspicioned that lie
supported Whitehead. Of course the
republicans should support him now for
postmaster. See?—Independent.
The Frontier is not howling for
Gus Doyle, although it is a fact that it
would rather see a good democrat get
the appointment than a mugwump pop
ulist like the Sun man. It may be that
Doyle supported Scott ahd Whitehead,
we hope 'tie so. for that would explain
the Independent’s antipathy against
him. Be he democrat or republican.
Col. Doyle is head and shoulders above
outcast Kautzman, both as citizen and
politician, and it is an insult to have his
name mentioned in that infected rag.
By letter we are informed that Joe
Bartley has transferred his bank at At
kinson to bis father. Let it be known
that Joe Bartley was one of Scott’s
bondmen. Did the defaulter’s abscond
ing cause this transfer? Has it come to
pass that the great state treasurer of Ne
braska is guilty of transferring his prop
erty to escape the pavment of his obii
gation to Holt county? Headers, draw
your own conclusions.—Independent.
Mr. Allison, cashier of the above
named bank, was in the city Tuesday
and in conversation with a Frontier
man denied the above assertion most
emphatically, and referred to its author
in anything but complimentary tones.
He says Mr. Bartley has made no trans
fers to escape his obligations and that
furthermore he will make none. Will
the Independent make an endeavor to
correct the falsehood it was so pleased
to circulate?
If President Cleveland will get some
circular letters printed and quietly send
them to manufacturers, or have Sec
retary Thurber go to the white-house
telephone and call them up and tell
them that the tariff will not be disturbed
for a period of two or five years—the
longer the better—prosperity will again
come on the gallop and this administra
tion will get credit for it, without
openly violating any of its platform
pledges. Then two years hence when a
new congress is to be chosen, prosperity
will reign, the people will be pleased
and democracy can appeal one more to
the country on the ground of tariff
reform and perhaps win another battle
on it. It is a sure thing that if democ
racy doesn’t abstain from its threatened
tariff revolution or give some assurance
as indicted there will not be enough left
of it two and four years hence for the
crows to pick at.—Fremont Tribune.
Wm. Kinley talks with truth when
he says: "The change from protection
to a tariff for revenue only, is so great,
so sweeping, that every thoughtful man
knows (bat it will be followed by a rev
olution in values and in wages of labor.
To make the change at a time like this
would be not only a mistake, but a great
calamity. It should be the aim of every
one to help bring the country back to
the prosperity it so recently lost. Poli
tics should not be permitted to deter
any of us fiom performing a plain duty.
The politics which interferes with the
return of good times and the well being
of the country should be reformed. No
pride of opinion, no thsory, no party
obligations should stand in the way.
Our country first, is the true American
sentiment. All should join in a patri
otic effort to restore confidence, give \
steadiness and integrity to our finances,
employment to our millions of working
men and the country an opportunity for
its greatest development.”

6evere Case of Blood Poisoning—
A Perfect Cure
"I will tell how valuable we have found
flood's Sarsaparilla. My brother Julius was
Blood Poisoned
and, although we had medical attendance, ha
failed to get any better, lie was sick for nine
weary months, suRering with numerous sores,
which appeared first like water blisters, and
when they burst, wherever the water spread a
new sore formed.
The Rain Was Terrible
The trouble was principally upon his legs, and.
we were afraid they would have to be ampu
tated. My grandmother urged us to try Hood’s
Sarsaparilla, but we thought It was of no use. as
wo had spent hundreds of dollars which had
proven useless; but father said, ■ Wo will try a
bottle. Soon after Julius began taking Hood’s
