MaoColl, McClay and MeNish
are good fellows and this paper will
make no kick if they are nominated,
bat then there are others.
> The Geneva Gazette last week
completed its thirteenth year. The
Gazette, under the management of
its editor, Edith M. Pray, is indeed
a high-gear populist paper.
The Chappell Register says the
people spoiled a good judge to make
a mighty poor governor when they
took Holoomb from the bench and
amt him down to Lincoln. The
people may be trusted to not make
the same mistake again.
It may be that the pops are
booming Kautzman for national del
egate jnst to get him out of the
legislative field. But they may be
disappointed. A man who takes
the credit for populist victories in
Holt county and appoints himself
state committeeman has the gall to
ask for everything else left above
ground.
The Son claims Kautzman voted
the republican ticket last fall, be
cause, fonooth, the vote in his
ward did not tally with the poll
made by the populist politicians.
Who does the Sun hold responsi
ble in the First and Second wards
and in Grattan and Shields town
ships? Seems to us there were
several places where the money
f. spent by the pops failed to show
profitable ’returns and left “the
poll’' a hollow mockery.
Two «years ago when the droutl
was doing us to a turn, in Borne lo
calities the people held campmeet
ings and prayed fervently for rain
But this year, when we have watei
to burn, there are no public meet
ings to offer up thanks. It is the
way with human nature. All that it
pleasant we take as a matter ol
course, but when adversity show;
his grim-visaged front we groat
louder than Job did with all of hit
boils.
--
The Spencer novice last week de
voted a column of advice to the
papers of this comer of the stats
in general and The Frontier in par
ticular. From one of the pigeon
holes of his imagination he drew
forth the idea that The Frontier is
a “chronic kicker,” and published it
in the form of a declarative sen
tence. The Frontier has contracted
the habit of saying what it thinks,
and if that course religiously fol
lowed entitles it to the sobriquet of
“kicker” it is willing to respond to
that name. The republican party
of this state needs a few kickers to
serve as a sort of ballast.

Judge Kinkaid will be the repub
lican nominee for congress in this
district this fall and that’s the “end
on it.” The convention will be
composed of 177 delegates; 58 of
these will come from the judge’s
district; it will require 89 to nomi
nate, leaving the judge but 81 votes
short in his own district But Mr.
Kinkaid is not a candidate of the
Twelfth judioial district alone; he is
the choice of the great majority of
the people of the entire congres
sional district and he will be nomi
nated upon the second formal ballot
The first formal ballot will, we
figure, be devoted to giving compli
mentary votes to favorite sons.
The country newspapers of Ne
braska are a poorly paid lot, gener
ally speaking, but it is their own
fault. When they set no particular
value on their advertising space
they oannot expect others to do so.
For instance, we notice a number of
our exchanges are running an ad.
for the Maywood bioycle. Now
there is not a cent in this for the
papers, positively not a cent The
contraot is that the paper is to re
ceive $5 for each bicycle sold by
reason of the advertisement. In
the ad. is a coupon, numbered,
whioh is good for $5 when sent in
with an order for a wheel. The
company keeps a register showing
what papers are running the differ
ent coupons, and when it reoeives
an order it turns to its register to
see what paper is entitled to the
commission. This is a mighty poor
way to run a newspaper. Might
just as well make a similar contraot
with the local merchants and take a
per cent, for each pound of sugar or
yard of calico sold by virtue of a
certain advertisement There is a
weeping need for a better under
standing among country publishers.
They control the best medium
through which the common people
may be reached and they are a set
of viridescent chumps that they
don’t take advantage of it and reap
an equitable reward for their labor.
If you would command respect,
first learn to respect yourself.
Thb editor of Th* Frontier, unlike
■ome people, does not profess to know
everything, and one of the things he
does not know is what free silver would
do for this country. He knows, how
ever, that he is opposed to free silver at
16 to 1 until after the McKinley tarifl
shall have had another inning and he
has watched its effect upon our mone
tary and industrial troubles. If a pro
tective tariff, after a fair trial, does not
loosen up things, then we will think
the silver problem is about solved.—
O'Neill Frontier.
Will Bro. King inform us what he
would consider a "fair trial?” We have
had a high protective tariff in tbit
country for the past thirty-four yeari
and things do not seem to have beer
"loosened" to any great extent. Whai
more can a protective tariff do for ut
than it has done? When The Frontiei
cries out for a continuance of protec
tlon, a decent regard for the opinions ol
others, whose interest in this question it
as great as its, should prompt It to tei;
us why it is that thirty-four years o 1
high protection has failed to bring the
answer, and what Us reasons are foi
thinking that the re-enacting of th«
McKinley tariff will help us?—Cole
ride Blade.
“What has a high protective tarifl
idone for ns?” Awake from thy
i dreams of free trade and free silver,
thou sluggard; go ask the laboring
man, heed his answer and be wise.
Go meditate in the shadows of our
' silent factories; peep into the “tax
cursed” dinner pail of the mechanic;
i rattle around awhile in the empty
vaults of the national . treasury;
figure up those bond issues and then
tell us what free trade has done for
this country. The exact opposite
will be an answer to your question.
PRESS COMMENT.
McNisli is gaining strength daily
for the nomination as state treasurer
and it would not be surprising if his
nomination were to be made unani
mous.—West Point Progress.
Because of the prominent part he
played in the Barrett Scott drama
Ham Kautzman, of the O’Neill
Beacon, will be made a delegate to
the populist national convention.—
Alliance Guide.
The name of Hon. L. G. Hard, of
Harvard, is frequently mentioned in
our exchanges of late in connection
with the office of lieutenant gover
nor. If Mr. Hurd desires that
honor he has only to say the word
and it is his.—Sutton Advertiser.
The friends of Judge Einkaid are
‘feeling very sanguine of his success
in the nominating convention of the
Sixth congressional district, soon to
be held at North Platte. Judge
Einkaid if nominated will make a
strong fight and will be a hard man
to beat. He is a true blue republi
can and a very aggressive cam
paigner, and is sure to take his
coat off for the winner, should he
not secure the nomination himself.—
Sidney Poinard.
Judge Einkaid, of O’Neill, passed
through Chappell Sunday night on
No. 4, on his way home from the
western part of the state, where he
had been looking up his chances for
congress. Judge is one of the
leading candidates for the republi
can nomination. He is a strong,
good man and would make a win
ning race. In faot all the candi
dates for the republican nomination
are first class men and popular
throughout; the district.—Chappell
Register. _
C. C. MoNish, candidate for the
nomination of state treasurer at the
grace of the republican party, cir
culated among the citizens of Bas
sett and Newport Wednesday to see
whether he could find any places in
Brooks’ fences that he could
“yump.” Mr. MoNish is a very in
nocent looking fellow and there is
no doubt about his ability in politics
or any other field. In our opinion
the rest of the candidates will find
in him a lively opponent—New
port Republican.
The Central City Nonpariel is re
sponsible for the statement that
“W. S. Summers, of Lancaster, is
announced as a candidate for attor*
ney general. Mr. Summers is an
able as well as a brilliant lawyer
and should have had the nomina
tion two years ago, but was beaten
out of it by a combination; a com
bination that, to say the least, was
of no help to the republican party.
Mr. Summers is familiar with the
duties of the office, having Berved
as deputy for a number of years.—
r Grand Island Independent.
