The people of this county should
beaten to pay Mr. Harrington the debt
of gratitude which the Sun says they
owe. __ _
It Is no particular credit to L. D.
Richards to have it said that he chas
tised Editor Maupin. Avoirdupois is
not always right, and the pen is might
ier than the dukes.
Holmes said he really believed that
some people saved their bright thoughts,
aa being too precious for conversation.
Upon that theory it might be said that
Editor Bryan saves his bright thoughts,
as being to precious for publication.

It ia reported that A. B. Charde has
purchased the Wayne Democrat. We
are afraid that A. B. will turn out like
Billy Bryan. Red-hot orators are too
often cold-storage writers. Financially,
'we wish Mr. Charde success, but we
trust in politics his republican enemies
may encompass him around about and
bring him nothing but confusion.
. If Judge Chapman had held that by
strengthening a bond it did not nulify it,
, would Tim Frontier have used the
same language?—Sun.
The Frontier does not feel called
upon to argue a question from an idiotic
hypothesis. When we consider that the
result was predicted by ns a year ago, it
looks as though we might be excused
for a little self-laudation.
It Is somewbst surprising the way th9
independent party has ignored Shields
township. The boys out there have
always been loyal to the independent
party and always given the ticket a big
majority, but they have Invariably been
ignored In independent conventions,
and Independent officials having situa
tions to give out have never gone to
^Shields for a man. In the division of
4he loaves and the fishes they have been
ignored, one official even going as far
as Iowa for a clerk.
1* your republican party, Mr. Fron
tikr, had not made it possible, you
Mould not now be whining and condon
ing the actant diahoneat officials of your
party.—Bun.
Thb Frontier neither whlne8 nor
condones. It has in the paat, and will in
^ the future, raise its voice against perse
secution by scheming legal shysters and
political demagogues. “Dishonest offi
cials of your party” is very good. Do
you remember, Sun, when a democratic
treasurer waa short $13,000 in his ac
counts, and upon the advice of Mr.
Herrington settlement was made for
$8,000f Do you remember that the
bond vu valid and the bondsmen well
worth the amount? Please do not speak
to us of the “dishonest officials” of our
party or the “debt of gratitude” the
' people of this county owe Mr.
Harrington.
Tm question of deciminating our
representation in the county congress is
being agitated considerably. The plan
most favorable seems to be to cut the
number of supervisors down to seven or
nine. As a business proposition there
can be no question but that it would be
a good move. The supervisor system is
bankrupting the county. The defalca
tion of Scott, about which we have
heard so much, is not a drop in ‘the tub.
The cost of the svstem above that of the
commissioner is $50,000 per year. If by
returning to the commissioner svstem
we should save half of that amount it
would be but a few years until we
would be odt of debt. It is only a mat
ter Of a little time until the voters will
awake to a recognition of this fact and
jump onto the supervisor system with
both feet. Speed the day.

politics constitutes a "dunce block,"
then there we are.
--
The North Bend Republican has late
ly issued a souvenir edition, in pamph
let form, graphically setting forth the
virtues of Dodge county in general and
North Bend in particular. It is the
most artistically written work of the
kind that has reached our table for a
long time, and there is no doubt but
that to the city of its origin it will re
turn a profit: of an hundred fold.
CanciclIiINo the tax receipts of T. A.
Thompson, of Sioux City, because the
money was collected outside of the state,
saved the county in that instance about
80,000, but was it good business policy?
Ueretofore outside capital has been buy
ing from thirty to forty thousand dol
lars worth of these taxes, but since the
action of the board in the Thompson
matter but comparatively little business
has been done in that line. Investors
say that they cannot afford to take any
chances with the Holt county board of
supervisors. Forty or fifty thousand
dollars for delinquent taxes would come
in pretty handy just now and check the
downward tendency of county paper.
Tom Majohs is saying in bis cam
paign speeches that he will, if elected,
“make tho best governer Nebraska has
ever had.” This is not complimentary
to our ex-governors, to say the least.—
Rushvllle Standard.
While this paper has not set fire to its
under garments making defense for
Majors, we do not believe that he ever
made the statement with which the
Standard gives him credit. A Fhontieh
reporter heard his speech of acceptance
at the state convention, and in the
course of his remarks he said that “if
elected he hoped to make the best gov
ernor Nebraska ever had." In that
hope there is nothing uncomplimentary
to our ex-governors, and there is no one,
we dare say, but wishes the same as
Majors. It is but tair to render unto
Cacar the things that are Ctear’s, regard
less of race, color or previous condition
of servitude.
Rbfubmcan papers of the state are
doing Majors no particular good by fill
ing their columns with trash about his
former proclivities. Simply because he
is a farmer is no reason that he should
be governoi. The state is full of farm
ers who would not make good governerr,
and on the other hand it is full of farm
ers who would fill the gubernatorial
chair with ease, dignity and credit.
Let the supporters of Majors be candid
and tell the truth: Say that he is a
farmer who does not farm, is a man
worth two or three hundred thousand
dollars and a professional politician. If
they wish to add that he is a business
man and that he made his money hon
estly and that they believe he will make
an excellent executive it will do no
harm. This slogan of “farmer" has
been worn threadbare and is no longer
soothing to the ear. Nothing is per
manently gained by misrepresentation.
If it were not for Attorney Harring
ton there wouldn’t be a brick in the
court house to-day—it would all be gone
the same as the rest. Mr. Harrington
has saved this county from being stolen
and carted away to another state, and
the wonder is that it was not at the rate
the republican officials were plundering.
The people of this county owe Attorney
Harrington a debt of gratitude far great
er than they will be ever able to pay In
dollars and cents, regardless of what his
fee may be in exposing and bringing to
justice corrupt officials.—Sun.
Mr. Harrington is a very nice man—
in his own estimation and the estima
tion of those of his ilk. He is the man
that while acting as counselor for one
client sold him out to another for 9100
and was rebuked by Secretary Chandler
in a caustic manner. He is the man
that Mrs. Marlev says signed her name
to a mortgage without her knowledge
or consent. He is the man that advised
the settlement of a 910,000 county claim
for 93,000. Verily, the people owe him
a “debt of gratitude.” Harrington has,
Indeed, great interest in preserving the
bricks in the court-house. He is one of
the dear people from whom Scott stole
the money—one of that particular brand
that has not paid his taxes since ’87.
Fine manl and we all owe him a “debt
of gratitude.”
PHYSICIAN, HEAL THYSELF.
The able young editor of the O’Neill
Frontier would doubtless be benefitted
by a dose of vermifuge, and it is accord
ingly recommended.—Fremont Tribune.
FROM HIS OWN CAMP.
John Crawford has at last been nomin
ated for an office. At the people’s
convention ot the Thirteenth senatorial
district heU in this city last Saturday,
he was nominated without much oppo
sition for state senator. We think he
deserves the nomination as well, per
haps, as any man in the district. For
the past six years he has been trying to
get the nomination for some office from
state senator up to township supervisor,
and we are glad that his perseverance
has at last been rewarded. We con
gratulate the delegates to the convention
on their choice, and can assure them, if
elected, that no senator in the state will
say less, draw more salary, count more
mileage or draw more pay for days that
he is absent, than be By all means
elect Mr. John Crawford for state sen
ator and then perhaps he will be content
to return home and take a life lease on
the office of township supervisor or road
overseer.—O’Neill Alliance Tribune.
SENATORIAL SITUATION.
The people of this senatorial district
are now face to face with two candl
dates for the senate, one of whom will
be elected. The voters are not only
face to face with the candidates—the
representatives of two political parties—
but they are also cheek by jowl with an
important branch of the national gov
ernment: United States senater.
During the campaign personal feeling,
local issues and factional fights should be
eliminated, subdued and held in abey
ance until after the polls are closed.
Much may depend upon the eleetlon of
senator from this district. Uis may be
the deciding vote in the selection of a
United States senator, and the senator
so selected may cast the deciding vote
in many important questions of national
government, so that it may readily be
seen that in the situation confronting us
rests a great responsibility, and a re
sponsibility that should be met and dis
charged intelligently. Aside from the
election of a United States senator there
will be much important legislation in
the state senate. Above all we want a
state irrigation law, and we want for
representative a man that is capable, is
interested, and will work to that end.
(This applies equally well to candidates
for the legislature.)
We want to elect no man that repre
sents the vagaries of the populist party,
to say nothing of the personal inade
quacy of the independent dandidate.
What we want is a man of sense and
energy—a republican. A man who will
vote for a republican United States sen
ator that he may be able to heal the
wounds caused by democratic tariff
tinkering and butchery. The growers
of wool in this district realize this fact
more than others, perhaps, and to a
man will vote for Samuel C. Sample, of
Boyd.
