moved into his elegant new residence

more gratifying to him and his friends
because it came unsolicited.

his official duties and retired to private

this week or the first of next.

recording instruments like old timers.
A republican upon entering the office
would hardly know there had been a
radical change in the office force ex
cept that the air appeared purer and
more invigorating, or at least that
is the way it appeared to us.

Lincoln Journal: Senators Diet rich

behalf of Lewellyn L. Lindsey, “Bud,”
whom they have agreed upon for sur

the government building at Lincoln.
The term of the present incumbent

Lindsey installed on that date, or very
soon thereafter. This is an appoint
ment agreed upon solely as a reward
of merit for political work rendered
by Lindsey, who Is one of the mast '
active partisans in Nebraska.
DIVINE ATTRIBUTE OF IT.
The Conservative: The Conserva
tive believes that ex-State Treasurer '
Bartley ought to be pardoned. He ,
has suffered enough! Justice has beeu
appased! Further punishment for .
this mis-inlluenced, mal-guided man |
is mere savagery. It is brutal ven- j
geance. ft is not civilized Christiani
ty. It is pagan barbarity. It is cruel- ]
ty to his devoted wife and unhappy <
children. ]
An executive with moral courage
and conscience enough to let him out ;
by a free and full pardon would suit
The Conservative and please God! j
Since the above was in type Gover- »
nor Savage has '‘filled the bill.” ,

It contains over forty pages, and is

A TREMENDOUS OBJECT LESSON
American Economist: Disburse
ments of dividends and interest
amounting to about $500,000,000 are f
taking place during this first week in (
January, 1902. It is very much the 1
largest sum ever distributed in this '
form in the United States, and acoord- <
inglv it may properly be considered as *
representing by far the highest point 3
in material prosperity ever reached in 1
the United States. No country on
earth can show anything like it. The
grand total of $500,000,000 is more than
double what the distribution of divi- (
dend and interest payment amounted
to in the first week in January, five
years ago. Then we were staggering
under the four years of Tariff reform
and Free-Trade. Now we have not
quite completed four and a half years
of restored Protection to American in
dustry and labor. What a contrast
between then and now!
Five hundred millions of dollars is a
big sum fo be scattered broadcast,
through this land of ours, a mighty
sum to bo paid out here and to stay
hprc. For, mark you it dose stay here
and it does not go abroad any more,
not above 1 per cent, of it, to enrich
creditors in foreign countries. Reason
why: We don’t owe anything now to
foreigners. Why? Because in four
and a half .years of “McKinley and
Protection” our trade balances have
amounted to over 1200,000,000, and in
settling these immense balances Eu
rope has been compelled to send back
our securities, so that we now owe Eu
rope very little, if anything, and only
an infinitesimal portion of the $500’
000,000 disbursed goes to any but our
own people. Not long ago, say four or
five years, our great railroad corpora
tions were sending vast amounts of
money to London and the Continent
pay dividends on stocks and interest on
bonds owned abroad. This year the
checks are made payable to
American citizens and not to foreign,
All because the Republica, policy
' of Protection enables, ps Vo produce
so large a proportion of what we use
audio require payment in casli or
the return of our securities held
abroad for the enormous surplus of
our exports over our imports,
i There is a tremendous object lesson
) in the disbursement of $500,000,000
; among the people of the United States
during this first week in January, 1002
The Market.
South Omaha Jan. 8,1902.—Receipts
of cattle have been very heavy the
first two days of this week and market
■suffered a decline of from 10 to 25c all
around. Today however, receipts are
lighter and market strong with a good
part of the decline regained. Good to
■hoice beef steers are scarce but de
mand is good and prices are strong to
i dime higher than yesterday. Cows
ind mixed stock in good supply and
market stronger in most cases 10c
Higher. Stockersand feeders in limited
supply but demand good and market
stronger.
Receipts of hogs continue liberal.
Today with 10,000 on sale market,
spened slow and draggy and is fully 5c
lower, making a decline of about 20c
’or three days. Range $5.75 to $6.40
aulk $0. to $6 20. It looks like receipts
must lighten up soon and when they
1o we look for better prices.
Sheep receipts moderate and market
steady to firm.

Every year a large number of poor
sufferers whose lungs are sore and

Coughs, Colds, and all Throat and
Lung diseases on earth. The first

A Big Cut m The Price.
The Nebraska State Journal has re
dueed its prices to sudscribers outside
of Lincoln and sudurbs from $7.50 to
$5.00 per year, including the big Sun
day paper, or $4.00 per year without
Sunday. The price of the Sunday
issue will be $1.50 per year.
By this action it is presenting its
state readers with thousands of
dollars, but the result will be thou
sands of new subscribers, thus enlarg
ing its usefulness and abbing to its
value as an advertising medium. In
stead of any lessening in the effort to
make it a iirst-class State Paper, the
Journal will be improved in every de
partment, making it the best newspa
per in the state for Nebraskans. It
is published at the State Capital,
which has always been the center of
things political and social of a state
nature. The Journal’s state tele
graphic service excels that of all com
petizors which, with its complete
associated press reports and special
telegraph service from Washington,
makes it the paper for Nebraska
people.
A. L. Bixby’s department is one of
the most widely read in the west,
and the fair and unprejudiced editorial
treatment of all state matters has
made the Journal thousands of warm
friends.
This big reduction in price which
now makes the six week day papers
eight cents a week, and the seven
day paper ten cents a week, will make
the Journal the most widely read
paper throughout Nebraska.

list? Send your order to the Nebraska

Steve McNIehols resigned Ihis posi
tion with the Kansas City Grain
Company January 1, and on that
date entered the market as a buyer
for himself. The Frontier hopes
that his venture will be successful
and that in time he may own as
many elevators sis any firm in the
United States.
The Frontier congratulates S. J.
Weekes upon his re-appointment as
register of the land office. This ap
pointment was agreed upon at a con
ferance held by Senators Millard and
Dietrick last Wednesday. John has
made a good faithful official and his
many friends not only in Holt coun
ty, but throughout the state, will be
pleased at his reappointment.
The Frontier desires to congrat
ulate Col. Neil Brennan upon his
election as vice-president of the
Nebraska and Iowa Implement
Dealers’ Association. This is one of
the largest organizations of its kind
in the United States and it is quite
an honor to be selected as one of its
chief officers. We can assure the
members of the organization that
they made no mistake in selecting the
Colonel for this position and that he
will fill the position with credit to
himself and the organization.
