There ar
many white soaps,
each
represented to be
"just as good as the Ivory.'
They are not,
but like
all counterfeits,
they lack
the peculiar
and remarkable
qualities of
the genuine.
Ask for
Ivory Soap
and
insist upon having it.
Tis sold everywhere.

-Mid t:im?eives at the public crib.)
is sk.. that the young man who is
wanting this district to send him to con
gress in the place of Sir. Canneli, has a
CJMtempt for the home market nd tJat
h- becomes very funny in diacu .;ing it.
As the grocerymen of Plattsmo '.h, de
pend to some extent on the wage laborer
here for support, and can appreciate the
benefit of that class of citizens who re
ceive good r, ages, it may be of benefit to
them to learn what a humbug the home
market is. Especially when a producer
like this young man, with his vailed ex
perience (0 elucidates the matter. If
there is anything the business mnn is sup
posed to be ignorant of, it is the quesion
of trade and if there is any one supposed to
be able to tea- '-, the business man on this
subject, it ia the modest young lawyer (?)
The law, of supply and demand seems
to really have as much to do with the
price of corn as the robber tariff. At
least we are satisfied the blunt plain far
mer will think so. With the great north
west producing more corn than we could
possibly take care of at a fair price the
free trader assured the farmer that there
was no over production but that it was
all the fault of h'gh tariff, now with a
single partial failure in corn producing
section and the assurance that for the
next twelve months there will be a scar
city of corn, the prices run up to three
times what they were four months ago;
Burely this ought to be food for reflec
tion for the statesman who reads the tar
iff hobby.

Messrs. Bukkows and f'owe. have al
ready run the alliance ship agouod. The
open attempt to use the organization f f
their own political advancnient, opened
the eyes of the straight republicans who
joined the alliance movement for t
purpose of tiding the Nebraska product l
instead of the mendacious office seek r.
So Tar the political movements of the
lianre have all been made in the interest
of the democratic patty, and without .my
regard to the legislation the farmer i3 in

CONSISTENCY.
After swearing that, he would never
notice us again the philanthropic editor
of the Journal devotes his euitoiial page
to ue last evening, complain'ig that the
Herald is not consistent in its course.
The real trouble is not with our consis
tency but our persistency in showing up
the political rascality of the Journal; in
one breath attacking the farmer candi
dates on the republican ticket, alleging
that they are railroad tools and in the
next breath adyising the nomination of a
straigth railroad ticket by the democratic
party. Attacking Mr. Richards, the re-
plubl'can nomio - foi governor, berau'se
he is a banner t :i i suppoi linj; l.inkerstn
the democratic ticket. Shouting for Van
Wyck and Leas-; for the past lour years
as the angels of poiinca', auti-ir.onopoly,
honesty and puiity and the moment he
has a chance to support Mr. Van Wyck
for conij'ss flopping clear b;.ck -n the old
man for a frothy you raUioad lawyer,
who has not been iu the state long
enougli to even be 1, nvn to the people
of l his district. Ad vising the fHiinerto
vote for an anti-inonp.list, only, in
one breath, and in the next singing Ihe
praises of Jim Boyd, a board of trade job
ber, who has lost a fortune during the last
twenty four months, gambling on the
Chicago board of trade, sufficient to
m;ike a township of farmers comfortable
for the balance of their natural lives. The
ltf.-t the Journtl has to Kay about politi
cal consistaney and honesty, the better
the politicians no-v nominated and to be
nominated on the democratic ticket will
be off. The Herald has no war to make
ou any man simply on account of his oc
cupation or calling. We have never de
sceuded to the level ' ccupied by the
Journal and the balance of the demt crat
ic newspapers of th:s state, notably the
Woild-IIeiald of Omaha, to tt:ick a
man simply because he apcas to be a
banker or in the employ of a corporation.
Vrhenever an impotent demagogue like
the Journal man go's p.nchea, his retoit
is similar to that t luat evenin g, which
the Herald enjoys. Tiie Journal luav
rest assured that ou. editor, -Afoevcr lie
m.'v be, will be a!jle to writi- tnwl". . n
sistent republican seutitnrr.ts without
appealing to the passions or prejudices
of niiy class.

The democracy o i.ss'istij pi is hold ing
a constitutional eonvcntion for the
purpose of placing obsti.e1''.: :.i the way
of the colored voter and will enact
property and, perhaps, educational n
stric:ious, so as to disfraaclr -a the igno
rant and pauper classes. This is no busi
ness of ours and if such law, woen
enatced, is fairly and without discrimi
nation, as to race or color, enforced, the
matter will be left, without criticism, tn
the hands of the Mlifissw.pian; if, how
eve , it is mtde for the blackjman alone
the state of Mississippi will find it criti
cised all along the line, for the countiy
will not countenance a refined method of
cheating to obtain advantage in national
representation and the elect. ral college,
any more than it will the shot gun and
tissue ballot plan.

The only criticism we heard, and
iVC-
not directed against the mar t ,b . r
the picnic, for ;he gentleirr
of it could not control the visit is. otric
seekers, was the political auctioneering j
of the democratic candidate, Bryan, who
assayed to adyise the old settlers how to
vote and how to conduct themselves
politically. An t-' 1 settlers' gathering
called for social pen poses only, where ihe
old neighbors can dwell together in reri

THE OUEtN'S SPEECH ON
BEH H-
INC- SEA.
Inter ' ce-an.
Hei Britannic Maj sty's spr ich to the
lords and commons of parliament is in
terestit g to citi.eus of the Ur'ted States
almost solely in so far as it toucua upo.i
the Bt i'rirg Seaquestion. The words m--few:
ul hrxve oTered to the prtsuleut f the
United States to submit toa '-it a-i -n tl -diit'?re-nce
over the BehringSea lishei i'. f. '
Secretary Blaine is a great admirer of
the principle of arbitration in maltc. s of
interuationl dispute. But there nromt
ters which cau not be submitted to a-i;i-".ration
without renunciation of an inher
ent and self-evident right belougiug to
one oi' the parties. For eample, ve Could
not hubmit to th-i arbitration of nny for eign
power our inherent and se'' -evident
national light of makingsuch m turali::a
tioa '...-.vs as seem best to us, or of making
our tai fTs high or low at. our cvn jdeas-
u;e, without renouncing a natu-a' power.
Natural powers and natural riguts are not
matters subject to arbitration. I'ney are
oi;it i s to be defended to the ultuof.l es-tri-oi'.ty
by the person or nation possessed
of theec. The natural power of any na
tion to regulate fisheries withiu t tie; watets
of it territories is no more arbitraMa than
the natural power of a nation to ;.-u;jd;
the postal system within its territ-r:s.
Al the bottom, the only Beh'ing Sea
question is this: Who owns the v (.eis
now in dispute? Who bought cont. of
them from liussia. Russia cxci-c'ed com
plete control over them, and Or ;t Ii
