Tlie Frontier is not boosting any
preferred candidate for .Senator Mil
lard’s toga, but it don’t know of any
man in any party in Nebraska that
could do the state more good in the
national capitol than Editor Rose
water of the Bee. Rosewater has
enimies galore, true enough, but he
also lias some friends and can “scrap”
any man or set of men to a finish for
what lie beleives to be right. lie is
on the Roosevelt side of railroad legis
lation, another strong point in ills
favor.
Never had the people of America
more reason to be thankful to Almigh
ty God for blessings voudedsafe than
on this Thanksgiving day. Despite
our errors and failures and short com
ings divine providence has dealt graci
ously the past year. Our barns and
storehouses are full, the machinery of
Industry moves without a check and
no wars nor famines nor pestilences
nor commotions disturb the happiness
and prosperity of the people. To Him
who rules in the affairs of men, let due
praise and reference be given.
Touching the annountement that
the senate had yielded to the presid
ent’s demand for railroad rate regula
tion, the Sioux City Tribune observes
a point frequently overlooked: “But
if ALL the newspapers of the United
States had refused to give Roosevelt
any support until it became manifest
that he would win the fight, would
the railroads and their senators have
found an insurmountable public opin
ion in their way? If EVERYBODY
had waited for . the band wagon to
come along, would there have been
nny bandwagon? It is well not to
lose sight of those who fought the real
fight for Roosevelt. And those who
waited till the tide of victory had
turned before taking sides, should be
branded the cowards or traitors they
are.”
Fremont Tribune: Lee Herdman,
who for long has been a prominent de
mocratic oracle, is quoted by a Lincoln
paper as saying that unquestionably
G. W. Wattles of Omaha will be a for
midable candidate for United States
senator on the republican side. Mr.
Wattles will, according to Mr. Herd
man, contribute Ireely of his financial
increment, and as he is a rich man it
is thought by many this will aid him
very materially in his quest of the
senatorial toga. It may be taken for
granted that there will be some lively
campaigning in Douglas county.
Senator Millard has been at work
there and elsewhere for a long tima.
He, too has money; and there is Rose
water, who has a newspaper. What
will come out of the conflict between
these three forces can not be predict
ed wi.h accuracy. Thus the Omaha
candidate is likely tosuffer a handicap,
even with a horde of gold at his com
mand, for his identity will not be
known until late in the campaign
Mr. Wattles is said to be opposed to a
convention nomination,though he will
not offer opposition openly and public
ly, not at this time. Mr. Millard has
served notice that he has accepted the
situation and, bowing to the will of
> his party, will favor one next year. In
this he evidently has the advantage
of Mr. Wattles, for it might as well be
known now that the republicans of
Nebraska are in 1900 going to repeat
f thjj Burkett experiment. Under the
new method of popular nominations
senatorships are not palpably open to
the highest bidders and the fact that
a few rich men are looking longingly
on the senatorial seat may not mar
other aspirants. Senator Burkett did
not expend a hundred dollars to get a
pratlcally unanimous nomination.
“TWO FELLOWS IN TIIETHIRD.”
The Independent says the only dem
ocrats in O'Neill who would subscribe
for a democratic paper were one
siartcd here are “two fellows in the
Third ward.” He that as it may, this
reminds us of a little late election
history. Early in the summer the
writer heard a party of leading citi
zens of the county who have been life
long democrats and party leaders dis
missing the party prospects for the
future, and they were a unit for hold
ing a straight democratic county con
vention and once for all repudiate
fusion. The word went out through
the county that there would be a
straight convention and no fusion.
Then the emisaries of fusion and
populism or anything for office and
spoils got busy and manipulated
affairs so the democratic and populist
conventions were called for the same
date.
This accomplished the rest was
easy. The pops stood for fusion and
the democratic camp only needed
“making right.” By getting pops
like McCarthy, Fisher and Shanner
and mugwumps and political nonde
scripts .like Johnson and McCafferty
on the democratic delegations they
captured the convention. The
straight democrats showed their con
tempt and disgust by walking out or
staying away altogether. They fur
ther and more effectually showed it
by using their influence and casting
their votes to defeat the mongrel
ticket. The head push on the fusion
ticket received more than 370 votes
less than the fusion nominee for the
same office in 1003. Hence there were
something over 370 voters like the
“two fellows in the Third ward.”
The sum of the matter is this: The
pop manipulators and grafters wanted
to retain the offices at any cost. Their
greed and desperation overreached.
They could capture the democrat’s
convention but they couldn’t make
the democrats vote the ticket. Hence
they are down and out—and mad.
ANOTHER “GREATEST.”
From the close of the civil war to
Spanish-American war the democratic
cry was that the tariff problem was
greatest before the American
people. The republican party long
ago disposed of this “great
est” problem and established the
varied industries of the nation on a
firm footing. From the rise of Mr.
Bryan’s political star to the calamity
that befell him the democratic cry
was that the free silver problem was
the greatest thatconfronted the Amer
ican people. The republcan party set
tled this greatest of problems and give
us a medium of circulation that is
worth dollar for dollar anywhere on
the globe. From the capitulation of
of Manila to the final defeat of Bryan,
the democratic cry was that imperia
lism was the greatest problem con
fronting the American people. The
republican party has settled this
“greatest” of problems and the coun
try still stands under one flag. The
republican party, through the admin
istration, has successfully solved the
national problems and has been in
strumental in establishing and main
taining manifold peace and prosperity.
The democratic party has hampered
the work in every way it could but
the work has gone on.
The democratic cry now goes up,
“the transportation problem is the
greatest which com fronts the Ameri
can people.” Just as all of these real
or imaginary “greatest” democratic
problems have been successfully met,
so will the transportation problem.
The national administrationhas show
itself capable of handling intricate
problems by more that one master
stroke, and whatever there is to this
present “greatest” problem will be
worked out to the good of all.
There is much truth in this com
ment from the Omaha Bee relative to
what is shown by the report of the
treasurer of the republican state com
mittee: Of the whole Nebraska dele
gation in congress, every one of whom
holds his place as a republican, only
two congressmen came to the front
with contributions to help maintain
the party organization. There are a
lot of others, too, who owe everything
to the party, but who return nothing
to it. On the other hand, the little
office holders who get a meager salary
arg_proportionately the most loyal
party subjects and the most liberal
contributors to the party. The ques
tion naturally presents itself how
people who neither have nor look for
political favors can be expected to put
up to keep tiie party machinery run
ning when those most signally honor
ed turn deaf ears to all solicitations.
