Any number of ripe politicans received on subscription. A few new railroads would be taken on subscription. Taking into account the multitude of uolitical shows that are advertised, the Hkhat.d concludes that it is about time for another string of resolutions froin H. F.Allen and his co adjutors, of Wabash. At a recent city election m Iowa, the 'drvs" and "wets" had an even battle. The towns that were dry last year are wet this, and vice versa. This is the way the restless American does business; he wants a change, he dou't stop to inquire the result, but a change he must haye. Hy a notice elsewhere it will be seen that the republicans 'tre expected to meet incoventiou at Eluiwood next Saturday All those in sympathy with the movement and who dem it for the best interest of the republican party of Cass Couuty, will attend. An article on railway constiuctiou shows that over 1100 miles have already been added to the track mileage of the United States in bS!)0. There have been in all 944 new roads begun or incorpo rated since the first of .Taunary last. It is predicted that the construction of "90 will exceed that of '89, when 5200 miles were built. The Republicans of Tennessee will begin their canvass early by putting their state ticket in the Sold six week6 hence. Bourbon frauds on the ballot have kept the state thus far out of republican hands, but the exposures made a year ago and the aroused public sentiment will render these outrages much more difficult to perpetrate hereafter. Ex. A temperance minister of the gospel speaking of the glorious meetings of Francis Murphy at Omaha truthfully says: If that kind of a meeting, where scores of wives and mothers may be seen rejoicing and praising God for husbands and sons reclaimed, is going to tear the political prohibition politics of Nebraska to smithereens let it all go and peace to its ashes. The Germania" a fortnightly Jour nal for the study of the German language and literature, published at Manchester, -Jf. II., is upon our table. It is n finely arranged magazine and should be read by all students of German. Die Ger mania enthalt viel was gut ist und ist sehr interessant. Wir empfelen sie -:zu den deutschen Studenten. It the business men of the south were loss predjudiced and more liberal in their views, they could score a point for their Bection of the country which, with its natural advantages, would make it the most productive of wealth of any section of the union. If they would give resi dent citizens the political liberty our constitution awards them, and allow the full exercise of the right of citizenship capitalists of the north with the vim and energy of northern character, would lo cate within their borders ar.d would CTfAtomch development u would sur. priup the most ardent admirer of the new south. Tut when a man must discard his political ri jlits in order to pucroed in ' lUHiiKH8 he will be. sl-tw ti move. Tlie ' people of the liortit are read y anil hiixious j to thko advantage of the wonderful "p ' portuniti offered in the miuih, hut they will not cotiMunt to hf im-ic iii.tcliiinR, in I order to aviiH tlit-nisel vex of these won : derful resources. ; It is u significant f-i t th -t Mr. Clove ! land has not personally disclaimed the ; language attributed to him in the World j interview. It he wishes the country to ; helieve that h never used such violent j and profane terms, let him furnish a let ter over his own signature something like the one that he wrote to Mrs. Heury Ward Beecher, for instance. Ik the Stales can not make and euforce prohibitory liquor laws ami the. Su preme Court practically says, through its Democratic Chief Justice, that they can not then would it be so very mu h of an invasion of State rights for Congress to puss a law for the supervision and control of Federal elections? This is one of the conundrums which Democrat ic statesmen should attentively consider. Ex. TilK general debate on the tariff bill might as well be shut off at once. It is merely a repetition of things that have long since been talked threadbare, and the country has had enough of it. The five-minute rule is particularly adapted to the pei sent situation. It won't suit the domocrats, of course; but then there is nothing in the constitution which makes it necessary for them to be suited in a caseoy this kind. Ex. An important work is being done by the University experiment station . Bul letin thirteen givs a vast amount of in formation concerning the culture and profit of growing sugar beets. This work under the direction of Prof. Nicholson aud Dr. Loyd, will save the fanners many years ef expensive experiments aud will give them such a knowledge of sugar beet culture as to make it profitable from the beginning. It is a significant fact, as Mr. Burrows, the statistician points out, that the policy of protection has created a home market that absorbs 95 per cent of the farm pro ducts of the country. Certainly, there fore the prevailing agricultural trouble can not be charged to said policy; nor is there the least reason to believe that the remoyal of all protective duties would in any degree enlarge the Europeau de mand for such products, without a cor responding falling off here. Ex. It is evident that the democrats pro pose to fight the McKiuley bill in a petti fogging way entirely, aud not upon general principles. This signifies that they do not dare to make a sq'iare issue against the protective policy as they did in the last campaign; but it will not profit them intti j l.vnt thus to dodge the main question. The people know what is really at stake in the case, and their attention can not be distracted from it by any sort of special pleading. Globe Democrat. The great Omaha elevators are now largely owned by Sioux City capital. It's a wonder that Sioux City don't buy the town, as they have more public spirit and enterprise on a square foot up there than Omaho could raise on a full block. They build railroads with their own money while Omaha capitalists are too mercenary and slow to even go so far as to make a survey, when the cheapest kind of common sense would show that the road would largely increase values. Maj. McKinley makes a good point by reminding the free traders that their croaking about the evil effect of the tariff in depriving our producers of a foreign market is refuted by the fact that we are now exporting more than at any pre vious time in our history, and that our ex ports have increased thirty-five per cent more than those of Great Britain. An argument of this plain and practical nature has greater force than any amount of idle assertions and fantastic theorizing. Globe Democrat. The opinions by prominent men of the state relative to the anti monopoly con vention to be held in Lincoln May :0, are as varied as were the colors of Joseph's coat of old. It won't do to condemn this meeting before it acts. Wait uutil we see what it does. If it means that the republican party of Nebraska should shut off a lot of heelers who have, for some years past, been largely running the party by their cheek and gall, it is all right. There is nothing so healthy for. a political party as full representation by all the eleniPnts which go to make it up. If it stimulates the agriculturalist to at tend the primaries and see that he is duly represented it will do good. We have had too much proxy business m our poli tics and it is high time to shut it off. We hope it will devote some of its at tention to the Wormy Capper, who is al ways in the advance manufacturing gov ernors and legislatures. Those are the fellow he granger wants to roast. The Nebraskan has been watching with an unusual degree of intensttlio fine growtli of a boom, which in rapidly assuming tiutjible t.hape, for Hon. Rich ard Berlin, of Omaha, as the republican candidate for lieutenant governor. The flank and open hearted Richard is do. servctlly pOnl'0' t home and through out the state, especially in this locality. Hastings Nehraskan The Hekai.I) enters a hearty amen to thu aboye and adds parenthetically, that if Mr. Berlin nll ws a small calibred man by the numc of Broatch, through ward machine work, to do him up for a delegation at home, he might still be able to come in a winner, as the great state of Nebraska is much 'larger than Douglas county, and we think appre ciates the good qualities of the Hon. Richard Berlin. Chicago visitors will all remember the great store extending along the entire south half of the Ivock bounded by Dear born, State, Monroe and Adams streets known as tho Fair. It has always been a marvel to western people owing to its ini meuse proportions. I he Lehmans have taken a forty fi vo year lease of the gronds and will begiu at once the erection of a twelve story building which will be the largest in the world for this purpose. The fair is a great store now but the Leh mans will haye to increase it four-fold in order to fill the new building. The rent paid for the ground is $1.4,000 per year, which for the forty-five years would amount to the almost incalculable sum of $ti,Si8J,000. What a wonderful city whereiu a business can be built up to pay such rentals for the ground alone. Gkokoe Wim.iam CVktis, the pious mugwump, that, under the guise of ciyil service reform, woiked so resolutely for Groyer Cleveland in order that his Eng lish ideas of free trade might prevail, is still working the same old racket. The protective administration does not suit the English apologist, hence the speech he delivered in New York yesterday on civil service, condemning the republican administration, must not be taken as a real reflection on Harrison's civil service actions, but as a covert drive at protec tion which is a great bugbear to the average blooded New Yorker, who would not be caught on the streets with a suit of anything but English made goods on his back. That people should listen to, or heed anything these English apes have to say is unfortunate, yet the associated press give them an extensive notice nearly every day. LOCAL DEBTS. In 1880 the aggregate debts of all the states and territories was 8200,000,000. Eight years afterward, in 1888, it had been reduced to $221,700,000, and it is now estimated at $215,000,000, showing a reduction in the decade of $45,000,000. But in nearly all the states there are county, city, town, townsh'p and school district debts, which, in the aggregate, greatly exceed the state debts pre per. In 1880 these debts amounted to $962 -000,000. If they have been reduced in the same proportion as the state debts proper, they are no $782,000,000. The national debt on the 1st of Janu ary, 1880, was $2,120,415,000; on the 1st of January, 1890, it was $1,052,000,000, a reduction of $1,008,415,000. The ag gregate public indebtedness of all kinds is, therefore, some $1,274,000,000 less than it was ten years ago. These sur prising figures show that the American people possess as great a debt-paying as debt-contracting capecity. A mania for going in debt siezes them at times, and under its influence they contract obli gations with a recklessness that invar iably gets them into trouble, and sub jects them to severe trials when the day of payment set3 in. Nevertheless, when payment is exacted, they adjust them selves to thu task, not without grumb ling and complaining, it is true, but with a heroism and fidelity to duty that does them credit, and in a few years they haye discharged half the old obligation and are ready for a new one. The en tire national debt will probably be paid in theprcsent decade, and the United States bonds, debt statements and all that sort of thing wil1 soon have passed out of fashion. Trade and Traffic. ENDING THE WAR. New York Sun. As we lay facing the rpbel lines around Petersburg that last winter of the war, the men in the rifle pits refrained from firing at each other, except when order id to do BO to cover seme new movement. One niht I was in a pit about half a mile from what is known as the "crater" and I soon found that there was a "John ny" in a pit facing ma, and only a stones throw away. Everything was quiet in that neighborhood, and I had been in the pit about an hour when he called out: . "Say, Yank, what about this hyar wah ?" "What do you mean!" "When are you'uns gwyne to quit ?' "When you are licked out of your boots." "Shoo! jou can.t do it in a hundred years. "Well, we are going o keep trying." He was quiet for a few minutes, and said: "Say. Yank, this is an awful wah." "Yes." "HcHps o' good ui' ii being killed " "Yes." 'Heaps o' property gwine t wreck Yes." "Does you'uns lay it to ineT '..! I i. ! n. to keen the war going. And I hadn't orter f "Of corse not." "And if I should come over to you'uns it might end the fussing" 'It would help." ; "Wall it seems that way to me. 'Pe is to be a sort o' duty. If I kin stop thii bloodshed an' won't do it, then I'm ornery mean, hain't. I ? "You are." "Hain't got no true spirit in me, eh?" "No." "Then I guess I'll come. I'm aheadin right fur you, and do you be kecrful that your gun dou't go off." lie came to my pit. bringing his gun along, and as I passed him to the rear he said: "This ends the wah, and I'm powerful triad of it. Reckon your Gineral Grant will be surprised when he wakes up in the niawnin' an' finds the rebelliou all petered out and me a eating Yankee hard tack."

Not content witli making the IIi.K.U.o the best daily paper in ('ass county, a new adver tising rate scale has been prepared aud goes in effect today. It will not affect "ads" for which contracts are now made, but all new business will be done i.n the basis of the new rates Cull on the man ager in pti.soil ONLY for tlie.se lutes and a full explanation of terms. Besides this within a few days I lie orsmi. it ion of the . If. Holton Co., will be accom plished and the htcilitbs of Hie job de partment material y increased. The news paper facilities are now greatly improv ed. It is the intention of this publishing j house to b-; second to no other in the State, situated in any similar sized city, and we ask the citizens for their support. It has also been decided to put in force new terms so far as practicable, and we ask our patrons to complv, and thus save us much work and valuable time. TH1C NEW T Kit MS will be as follows: All regular adver tising, same as at present, payable first of each month; locals, payable Saturday of each week, unless otherwise agreed puon or arranged for at beginning of contract. but those inserted by parties who have no regular account or transient, must be paid in ado i?ije or at expiration of time for which local was inserted. Job work must be paid for when ordered by those not having regular business with the tliee, or others th-m home merchants and we shall insist upon payment from everybody on delivery of work. It will simplify matters with us and enable us to make better and closer prices. It is my belief that a cash basis is the best for all concerned, and while we do not oh iect to monthly settlements, and shall ladly adhere to that plan with those who do considerable business with the oiuee, it is loiinu mat many smalt uuis are no easier collected the first of the month than upon delivery of work, and is a cost of at least ten per cent extra to us, which must be added to the price of work or lost to the office. Thanking all patrons for past favors and asking aeon tinuance of the same, I am, yours truly, Geo. H. Hoiton, Manager. Stray. A very small red pig is at MeConrt's.
