Tn» Ewing Democrat is much im proved under the managemeht of Mr. Benson. Them is one thing to be placed to the credit of the democrrtlc senators— they stay bought. It will be a long time before this country will vote another dose of dem ocratic tariff reform. There is only one sure wav of getting • vote counted in the south-east it for the democratic ticket. Conorbssman Bryan need not worry ?; himself bald-headed preparing his maiden senatorial speech, as the name j7„ of the successor to Senator Manderson | will not be Bryan. Mr. Pullman Is not a saint, therefore It is not surprising that he should object M to furnish house lent free to men who refuse to work for him. Thh Loulsana sugar planters were a little late In sending a delegation to i,/' Washington. The trust had already . bought everything in sight. :;7 Tub sensible people of the country Will endorse the decision of the Indian apolis authorities that the making of populist speeches on Sunday Is a dese cration of the Sabbath. : J f. Plenty of countries have lived pros perously and peacefully under two flags at different times, but the countries which have tried to live under two flags ::;v at one time have always'paid very f ’ dearly for it. Srnator Hill may never be nomin ated for the presidency by the democrats but he will always have the satisfaction | of looking back to the fun he had with the democratic senators at this session | of congress. g'iVi: ;■ &Z - $ It begins to look as though Senator Camden’s forgetfulness concerning that order for the purchase of sugar stock would cost him his seat In the senate even if the democrats succeed in retain ing control of the West Virginia legis lature,which Is by no means a certainty. ’> • —... f'.; Wonder if the position of Gen. A , Mahone as chairman of the republican < state committee against making any v . congressional nomination, had anything » to do with the votes of the democrats in 17 the house being cast in favor sf the pur chase of Mahone’a Washington real estate at a fancy price T i he sun is ior once quite correct when it i»ti “Thb Frontier concedes the defeat of the republican legislative nomination.” The way the matter now ■tands they cannot be elected. But we reiterate that if every republican in the county will vote for Mr. Griffith be will be elected. But will they do it? An ominous silence from Atkinson and Ewing our only reply. Nothing like it was eyer before seen’ congress passing a law with rushing haate, refusing to allow that it be dis cussed, and forthwith attempting to defeat the law in all its leading features by adverse legislation in the house, which the leaders well knew could not pass. It was a wonderful bowing to the vox populi, and a most wonderfully low i' estimate of the intelligence of the peo “i’j* pie they attempted to deceive. ii; - "v< I Nearly every drouth stricken county in the state is voting bonds for irriga tion or some other internal improve ments. This is done, in the first place, because they realize the beneficial effect of irrigation, and in the second place, to afford an opportunity for the poor to tide them through the winter. It would be far better for old Hplt to vote bonds for irrigation than to knock at the state bouse door for charity. It will be one or th« other. Lkt the Chamber's Itugle study care fully the figures presented by Tub Kkontikh last week before it circulates argument against bonding on the grounds that the man who does not get water will receive no benefit. It is a false promise and the figures mentioned will successfully combat any such reas oning. It begins to look as though the dem ocratic senators were playing a little bunco game on Ari/.ona and New Mex ico. It wouldn't take tun minutes to pass the hills admitting these territories to statehood, hut the announcement has been made at Washington that they are not to be passed at this session of congress. Wk understand 8. C. Sample, of this city, will be a prominent candidate at the republican senatorial convention for the nomination of stato senator. Mr. Sample has the necessary qualifications to make a number one representative for the people, and should he be sue cessfull in securing the nomination, will give the other candidates a lively hustle at the polls.—Butte Gazette. Tint esteemed Fremont Herald, pre sided over by a gentlemen well versed In material medica, should furnish a key with each scientific article that he writes. It may be nil plain enough to members of Dr. Devries' profession, but what do we common country people know about "bacillus," "superficial layers,” "stomach and lungs,” "microbe,” "bacteria," "opaque veils,” etc. The doctor should be surprcsBcd. -*.-*•..* Tint republican state convention in Omaha yesterday nominated Thomas J. Majors as its candidate for governor. It appears to us that the nomination of Mr. Majors is a severe blow to the party at this time when harmony is needed to securo vistory. Mr. Majors is too old a politician nnd it is high time that he step down and allow some of the young er element to lead the party. Had he done this the republican party could go into the campaign and make an aggres sive fight, but now the party will have to be on the defensive. Tim Osmond Republican says: "Pop ulist papers that take so much delight in quoting garbled extracts from the speeches of Abraham Lincoln would be shocked if requested to copy a few words he really did say, which read as follows: ‘Let reverence of law be breathed by every mother to the lisping babe that prattle in her lap; let it be taught in the school, seminaries and colleges; let it be written in primers, spelling books and almanacs; let it be preached from pulpits and proclaimed from legislative halls and enforced in courts of justice; in short, let it become the political religion of the nation.’ ” Below we think wo have some ex cellent argument in favor of irrigation. It is taken from a recent issue of one of the best papers in Colorado, the Denver Republican: It seems that there is almost an exo dus from Nebraska of farmers who have given up the attempt to raise crops in the semi-arid regions of that state. This is Colorado's opportunity. These peo ple should be Induced to turn their at tention to this state and seek new homes in our irrigated valley’s. Here they would be afflicted by neither drouth nor burning winds, and a good market would await the products of their in dustry. We believe this nothing but argument in favor of pushing to early completion the project now almost before the peo ple of our county. In the irrigated valleys of Colorado water rights are much higher than those proposed to be charged in this county, they being there, we are told, from #35 to $50 per acre, and here it will be but $10. CLOVER'S APPEAL TO POP ULISTS. Mr. Clover, who was an active pro moter of the populist movement in Kan sas, who was elected to congress in 1890 from the Third Kansas district by more than 5,000 majority over Perkins, who was one of the eight representatives of the farmers alliance in the Fifty-First congress, who has served as president of the Kansas farmers’ alliance, and as vice-president of the national alliance, recently has addressed a letter to that great body of agriculturalists advising Its members to abondon the populist party and to cast their votes solidly for republican congressmen. He reminds them that he and they joined with the democrats of Kansas to “down the robber tariff barons and to overthrow the banded plutocrats.” And he invites them to an inspection of pres ent conditions. The sugar trust openly dictating the tariff policy of the senate, i the monometallists dictating the coinage policy of the president, the southern planter getting 80 per cent, of protection on the rice that the northern farmer has to buy from him, and the congressional representatives of southern planters stripping every shread of protection from the wool of the northern farmer, which he has to sell to the southern planter that he may clothe himself and his cheap laborers with it; and the south standing solidly democratic, and pop ulist representatives and senators voting steadily with the southern democrats; 50-cent wheat and 7 cent wool, idle fact ories, abandoned farms, and striking workmen, are the things that Mr. Clover see around him. He sees also that these I things are outcomes of democratic ad % ministration of national affairs. He secs also that the plain farmers of the west who weaken the republican party by voting for populists who are unwill ing to reform matters are, though per haps unwillingly, contributory factors to the present depression of trade, com merce and agriculture. He calls on them to accompany him on a return pil grimage to republicanism, protection and prosperity. The populist party had its origin in a belief that the republican party had grown inert, that it was living on a glorious record, that it had become his torical merely, that It was not in close touch with the people; that the new and pressing question of regulation of cor porations, of suppression of trusts, of maintainance of the right of silver to recognition as coinage, of restriction of immigration and of regulation of inter state commerce should be intrusted to other bands. The dead failure of a democratic congress and president to accomplish any benitical legislation, the retrograde movements of agriculture, mining and manufactures under a period of democratic rule, have had their effect. Nor has the movement of young blood in the republican party been without effect upon the observing farmers. They have learned that the grand old party is a new party as well as an old one. al ways responsive to the demands of the hour, alway progressive, a party with noble traditions, but a party also with noble purposes, Mr. Clover’s letter is timely and is likely to meet with satis factory respouse.—Inter Ocean.
