■ A. M. Robbins, of Ord, is a candidate
g /for state’s attorney.
This county will be for Kinkaid
’ without a struggle. And it should be.
New York banks alone have in their
vaults over 980,000,000 above the
reserve, that is required by law.
By the way, where is that transfer
switch that was ordered put m at
O'Neill? Why this delay? The Fron
tier daily loses faith in the railroad
management in the state.

Col. Watterson says the compro
mise tariff bill is “a mongrel piebald of
patches and pusillanimity, a grotesque
hodgepodge of pretense and pettifogging,
a nondescript abortion of incompetency,
selfishness, cowardice and treachery.”
Henry Watterson correctly diag
nosed Breckinridge’s Lexington speech
as “a strange exhibition of marvelous
effrontery, wretched taste and mentally
and morrally oblique casuistry," and
his opinion cannot be charged to repub
lican persecution.
-. .
The Frontier is pleased to see indi
cations that the razor-edged hatchet
will be buried beneath six feet of damp
sod and the coming congressional can
vass here be a bloodless, affair. ’Tis the
wisest thing to do and we say that we
are pleased that republicans are taking a
sensible view of the situation.
The Goxey army absurdity is heralded
by some people, who know no better, as
a labor movement. Hugh O'Donnell,
the labor leader, who was with the army
on its march to Washington as a news
paper correspondent, says that instead
of representing the labor classes ''it is
altogether a hopeless, helpless, pitiable
crew, with the chief of fakirs and bom
basts for a leader.”
Mr. Annin in the State Journal’s
Washington letter says: “Among the
Mat of naval cadets appointed by the
secretary of the navy, owing to the fail
ure of representatives to select from
their districts, which was read in the
house, is the name of Amon Bronson Jr.,
Rochester, N. Y„ appointed in 1893.
A Nebraska man would he Ailing the
position if Mr. Kem had n«t neglected
to designate a boy from his district.
The appointment was made before Mr;
' Melklejohn’s election.
This paper believes thg Ewing Demo
crat to be very nearly borrect When It
says: “From present indications Jack
McCall, of Lexington, will have the
almost united support of the republicans
of the Sixth district for governor. The
writer as well as others who have been
tor Tom Majors in the past, now sin- <
cerely believe that the party will be
benefltted by nominating a man who
will not cause and dissension in the
party from the day of the convention to
election day. Jack McCall will unite
and harmonize all factions and place the
party in the entire state in a condition
for better work than the nomination of
any other candidate could possibly do."
Col. Towle is a pretty smooth poll
I tician. When he made up his mind to
become a candidate for congress he
straightway went to Kautzman and re
quested him to uncork his vials of filth
and baptise him with the same, believ
ing that when the people saw him thusly
afflicted they would forgive him his
minor trespasses and elect him to con
gress merely as a rebuke to the Jew.
The Israelite declined to do this, we
suppose because no reward or promise
of reward was made, and gave the
colonel’s proposition away in his next
issue. But the colonel finding his boom
tottering for want of proper inflation
must have decided upon heroic measures,
as last week’s infection comes out for
Klnkaid and abuses Towle shamefully.
We have no idea what it cost the colonel
but at a reasonable price it was cettainly
a valuable investment.
The Atkinson Graphic of last week
;■ was a little roiled because the officers of
the irrigation company in issuing their
prospectus dared to say that a great deal
of the land traversed by the survey for
the proposed ditch, was almost valueless
in *)t!» present condition, but the
Graphic's anger reached a grand climax
when it discovered that the map used
failed to show its city, and contained
other irregularities. There was nothing
premedidated in connection with this
%-f unhappy circumstance and the artist
H that did the work is entirely to blame,
and not the officers of the company or
the water in the Niobrara river. When
ever O’Neill is interested in an enter
' prise the Graphic is sure to be devoured
by jealous suspicion and looks at every
thing out of the corner of its eye. For
this petulant affliction of that model
Journal we would recommend copious
libations of Or. Hammond’s sarsaparilla.
' Thb improving condition of the state
treasury is gratifying from two points
of view. It is particularly gratifying to
tax payers to learn that despite the hard
times which are prevailing, the debt of
- the state is being rapidly wiped out. It

caa party, also, that its officials are
managing the business end of the ad
ministration in such a business-like and
sensible way. As rapidly as has been
possible the courts have been requested
by the treasurer, the governor and the
state board of public lands and funds to
interpret certain disputed and appar
ently conflicting clauses of the statutes
to the' end that the real powers of each
should be defined clearly and certainly.
There have been two or three such
decisions and under these the officials
are now acting in a way that will re
dound to the benefit of the taxpayers of
Nebraska. For instance, the board of
educational lands and buildings has just
purchased $250,000 of registered war
rants on the general fund with money
in the permanent school fund, which
will have the effect of paying the seven
per cent, drawn from the warrants from
one fund into another fund, and thus
return it to the state. It is a pleasure to
note that there is a bottom to the hole
into which the state was put by the ex
travagant populist legislature of 1890
and that the bottom is at last within
sight.—Fremont Tribune.

INDEPENDENT STEALS.
At every meeting of the board of
supervisors they steal from the county
$186, by charging for the'day before the
board meets and the day after it
adjourns.
By awarding the printing of the tax
list to the Independent they have stolen
over $1,500 from the people of the
county. The supervisors who by their
votes perpetrated this outrage are:
Conger. Crawford, Dennis, Donohoe,
Eckley, Greig, Hodge. Jillson, Kelly. H.
B.. Kennedy, Miller, Phelps, Schindler,
Slaymaker, White and Waring.
By employing more help in the treas
urer’s office than is necessary and more
than was employed under a republican
administration, they are wrongfully
spending the people’s money.
By employing more help in the clerk’s
office than is necessary and more than
was employed under a republican
administration, they are robbing the
tax payers.
By allowing the sheriff two deputies
when he should do all of the work him
self, they are heaping additional burdens
upon the public.
By recklessly plunging the county into
ill-advised and losing litigation that are
increasing taxes.
Employing John Morrow for a year at
$2.50 per day as assistant expert, which
was clearly a violation of our statute.
By calling a grand jury last fall they
heaped thousands of dollars of addi
tional debt upon the county, and the
benefits derived were absolutely nothing.
Being the plurality party they are re-,
sponsible for the continuance of the
supervisor system, which costs the
county .over $50,000 more every year
than that of the commissioner.
Before election Joss Mullen promised
that all the help he would ask would be
one deputy and one .clerk. Therefore,
all the help he employs above that num
ber is a steal, according to the words of
his own mouth.
Awarding the contract for publishing
the proceedings to both the Sun and the
Independent is a steal that will amount
to considerable.
By consuming six days in the Skir
ving trial without requiring the plaintiff
to give a bond for costs the county has
lost at the least calculation $550.
