Was it not wrong for any man, or se
of men, combination or clique, to taki
*100,000 of money that was paid inti
the county treaaury and to convert it ti
their own use and never return it to thi
county treasury? Wasn’t such a tbef
from the over-taxed people of thi
county a great crime and a heinom
wrong?—Sun.
It was. For further particulars set
last week’s Fhoktiku.
In cask of Hamilton’s election it ii
said that Ewing will furnish the nexi
deputy sheriff. When Hamilton wai
making bis bard fight for the nomina
tion in the nopulist convention Ewini
held the balance of power and on thi
last ballot swung to Hamilton and nomi
nated him. The consideration, it if
said, was the promise of the deputysbip
The Sun (ays Woods is a Biglin man
for the reason that Biglin has promised
him a clerkship. The Frontier doe*
not know that Biglin has done this, but
the assertion suggests an idea: If it it
true, why does the Sun not prove it*
great love for Woods, the old soldier,
by assisting in the election of Biglin 1
Mr. Woods would certainly get no clerk
ship under Mullen.
People In this Judicial district have
been served faithfully by Judges Bar
tow and Kinkaid, and in rendering theii
decisions they have been impartial to all
concerned. This district does not con
tain men better qualified for the arduout
duties devolving upon the judiciary than
the present incumbents, who at all times
have looked after the best interests ol
the entire district. Their faithfulness,
honesty and integrity deserves to be re
warded by re-electing them to theii
present positions. It is for you, who
desire good government, to see tbal
these incumbents are retained.—Valen
tine Republican.
A great many people .now believe
that the reason the board refused to set
tle with Scott and take the notes due
him in part payment was beoause nearly
all of the notes were signed by memberi
of the populist party. And still the
populist press of Holt county has always
stoutly maintained that Scott was killed
by the men who had his money. 01
course when the pop papers were talk
ing that way they appeared to think
that Scott had loaned his money to re
publicans, but now that the contrary is
known to be true will they be allowed
to recant, to recall what they have writ
ten? Hardly. Alt of the people are not
fools all of the time.
Last week’s Sun, in speaking of the
men on the populist ticket, said:
They are standards of morality, so
briety and gentlemanly conduct. (There
ie a tingle exception, we are sorry to re
mark, but he is not a populist.)

Harrington complains that The
Frontier libeled him last week.
Strange what ideas some men have of
libel. He didn’t seem to be greatly of
fended when we said he fled to Illinois
to escape,arrest for forgery. We even
published an affidavit from Judge
Bowen stating that a warrant had been
issued from county court for such pur
pose and still he didn’t talk libel. When
we published an opinion written by the
honorable secretary of the Interior in a
land case wherein he said this man Har
rington had sold out a client, and re
versed a contest case on those grounds,
he didn’t accuse us of libel. Libel)
Great hevingal we don’t want to under
take the task.
Westover amp Golden have been
making a vigorous campaign through*
out the Fifteenth judicial district.
Judges Klnkald and Bartow have been
busy taking care of their official duties,
holding court nearly every day since
their nomination, and have had no time
to do any electioneering, and as the
time ie now limited it will not be possi
ble for theiki to make a very thorough
canvass. They are in fact In the hands
of their friends. This district is com
posed of ten counties and if the re
maining daye were divided equally
among the several counties it would
give but two daye to each county, so ii
will be Impossible for them to do more
than visit a few towns in each county.
▲ personal campaign, however, is not
necessary on the part of these gentle
men. The people know them perfectly
well, and so knowing will re-elect them
when the proper time arrives.
Last week’s Fbomtier stirred up th«
natives in great shape. Messrs. Har
rington and McCaOerty were particularly
red-headed and both took a terribh
oath that they would spend the rest ol
the time before November 5 working
against the republican ticket. To lost
these two warriors will be a terribh
blow to the republican party, but, deal
voter, when Mike Harrington broaches
tke subject to you just aak him how
much money he has made out of popu
lism during the last two years:' ask bin
if bis great npncern for the populia
ticket Is not with a view to the perpetu
t alion of his snap: ask bim why be does
1 not settle up in full with the Holt
| county bank and give the depositors
, another dividend: ask him if the bank
i would ever have failed bad lhd*men
1 paid back the money they borrowed.
1 When you see McCaSerty inquire of
, him wby be is a populist: ask bim why
he does not pay back the money be bor
rowed from Scott: ask him bow it bap
, pens that every treasurer he baa sup
, ported in the past has been short in his
, accounts. These are two nice men to
. be out soliciting votes for populists.
Tbeir friendship alone ought to be suffi
cient to defeat the men for whom they
are working.
Holt county has a bad name abroad,
there ia no use denying that, bnt there
is a way she can redeem herself. Turn
down the pops and you will have re
moved the cause. They are the people
who have made the county the laughing
stock of the state and ruined her repu
tation aa a law abiding community.
They have atirred up .more strife and
contention during their brief career
than the old parlies could do in a cen
tury. They have arrayed neighbor
against neighbor, friend against friend
and divided households against them
selves. They have done this by appeals
to ignorance—stirring up racial preju
dices and religious differences; things
that should have no place—and do have
no place in political economy. In the
first place their cause was not just and
could not win by logical argument In a
fair field, and as the spoils were their
desire they adopted disreptuable tactics
to win. They have not helped the
financial affairs of the county, but the
contrary is true. They have, however,
succeeded in turning immigration from
our boundaries. It was only last week
that Thb Frontier met an eastern cap
italist who came to O’Neill for the pur
pose of investing S10.000 in Holt county
land, intending to put in system of irri
gation. He called at this office, intro
duced himself, and gaye us the forego
ing facts, but said that since coming
here and acquainting himself with ex
isting conditions he bad decided to not
invest. He said he would never invest
a cent in any community where the pop
ulists were in control. It was his opin
ion that they breed disaster and ruina
tion. And they do. We do not like to
publish such things as these, but the
voters have a right to be informed that
they may govern themselves accordingly.
The remedy is in their hands.
