The Chilians are still at war
among themselves and at the pres
ent time the outlook i altogether
in favor of the success of the in
surgents. The whole trouble is
that there is too much L,atin blood
in the people for them to have any
kind of a government that in the
nature of their institutions would
not be overthrown every three or
four years.
Sexatok VANCE recently re
marked that in the city "on acloud
day, you can not tell the difference
between an alliance man and a dem
ocrat." This view is being con
stantly' emphasized hy the political
news from that section. The alli
ance makes a great boast of its non
partisanship, but somehow all of
its actions are so arranged as to
help the democratic cause. Globe-J)emocrat.
Wheat and other grain is always
bought andsold by the cental, in Cal
ifornia which in A nglo-Saxon means
lOOpounds.This is the best and simp
lest way to do business and ought
to be the rule all over the countr-.
The idea that so many pounds of
one grain and so many more of an
other make a bushel is cumber
some and requires much time that
could be more profitably spent oth
erwise if everything was valued and
sold by the cental.
The Journal argument against
''paying hire" for use of money puts
us in mind of the old demo
cratic argument that the bible
taught the divine right, in this
nineteenth century, of one man to
enslave his fellow man; both argu
ments are based upon the Leviticus
Code and are essentially bourbon in
jtheir inspiration. As a political Kcon
omist our neigbor takes the cake
and may always be relied upon for
upholding the doctrine of getting
something for nothing.
Govkkxok Kokakek's speech at
Cincinnati, which seems to have
hurt the personal friends of
Harrison very much, was certainly
a very ill-timed affair. If the gov
ernor wished to give Harrison a sly
dig, that was the most inopportune
time and place in the world to do
it. And in doing so there, he not
only stirred up much ill feeling but
he in a manner compromised ?Ir.

not in the least at fault. The rule

be relegated to the rear. We have
some of them in Nebraska; and even
Cass county is infested in a small
way with such personages.
"Tims government of ours," said
President Harrison in one of his
speeches from tin-car plaiform, "is
a compact of the people to be gov
erned by the majority." His major
ity of the electoral vote was just a,
but it would have been much larger
if the ciii'.ens of every state were
free to vote as they chose. This is
a consideration that the democratic
papers which now scoff at this ut
terance and call Harrison a 'minor
ity president" should bear in mind.

President Hak-KIsox answers all
criticisms of the appropriations for
an increase of the navy by saying
that "we are a peace-loving nation.
but we can not be sure that every
body else will be peaceful." It is
necessary, in other words, to be pre
pared for war in case it shall be
forced upon us against our inclina
tions; and besides, such prepara
tions are known to be conducive to
peace with other nations. Globe

seemingly' a great difference be

The following dispatch from
Washington, certainly- contains
good news for Nebraska farmers,
though a little rough on the free
traders. The dispatch reads as fol
lows:
The fuller details of the treaty ne-
gotiated beiween Spam and the
United States, published to-day-
more than bear out the assertion
made in these dispatches to the ef
fect that this country, and the west
especially, is to be a great gainer by
the new policy. While the exact
status of American cereals and hog
products in Cuba cannot be defi
nitely stated, enough is already
known to warrant the prediction.

treaty will be of more direct benefit

ever before negotiated. It will add
millions to the wealth of the far
mers of the west and in return they
will continue to get twenty pounds

sas Ciiy Sun notoriety was yestei
day bound over in the county court
of Otoe county for criminal libel
and John M. Cotton editor and pro
prietor of Vanity Fair comes in for
Jus Hearing to-uay at the same
place.D The fact is, decent newspa
per men can have no sympathy for
libelous enterprises like Vanity
I'air. The paper published by Mr.
Cotton at Lincoln has proved a rot
ten, scurrillous agency for unmoral
literature and should be suppressed
Newspaper men of character and
ability cannot afford to engage in
such enterprises and the sooner Mr
Cotton gets out of the Vanity Fair
the better for him. The publication
of bawdy house rumors anil litera
ture does not belong to legitimate
newspaper business. The publica
tion of "The koast" by Al Lwan in
the Kansas City Sun, in which re
putable, high minded members of
the Nebraska legislature were vili
fide and traduced and their names
coupled with women of bad repute
w-as a cowardly libelous piece of
blackguardism which no high
minded man would engage in, and

The latest tcleirram from Rome
says; the Italian l'remier gave
Iiaron Fava a cool welcome. Ktt-
dini appreciatesthat he had made
a liasco, and is anxious to throw the
blame on Fava. It is reported in
Rome that the only question now
affecting the cabinet is how to get
out of the American difficulty with
the least disgrace. The lalest dis
patch from Imperial! at Washing
ton is said to foreshadow that not
even a money indemnity wiJloe
of sugar for fl, neither of which de- paid to the families of the massa
sirable results .could have been pos- cred Ttarlims the temper of the
sible under Mills bill, which the , ... , .
farmers' alliance nemile and their American people being such that
democratic allies are trying so hard congress would not dare to make
to indorse.
Mk Kisek of the Cottowood Alli
ance, who signs his name as "Secy.,'
is out in a communication which
the Journal published last eve
ning, in which that politician of
democratic-alliance proclivities
say s White and Shryock made no
pledges to the alliance hence their
action is beyond criticism. We
don't know how that is, but TllE
IIekald believes with men like Mr.
Kiser it was unnecessary for these
gentlemen to make pledges; their
democracy was well enough known
to Mr. Kiser to warrant no criti
cisms from the democratic end of
the Cottonwood Alliance. We will
wager a bar of soap that Kiser came
nearer voting for Frank White and
Billy Shryock than he did for Sam
an appropriation. Imperiah has
forwarded statements that hme
greatly surprised the cabinet, show
ing that America does not fear
Italy's fleet.
Baron Fava in his report to the
Marcpiis di Rudini on the New Or
leans lynching, expresses the belief
that there is no way out of the situ
ation, as the Federal government
has no power to give Italy the satis
faction demanded.
JUST SO!
Young Mr. Bryan is reported in
his vaporing before the Kansas
Ciiy Congress to be violentlyr op
posed to the reciprocal treaties
which the present republican ad
ministration is closing up with
Spain and the South American
states. Just so! An importer (of
Thomas, and we will go a whole box jaw bone) like the democratic prod-

the legislature investigates the
whole affair two years hence will
the public know the full extent of
their losses. And what is more, bv
that time the bondsmen will prob
ably have disposed of Iheir proper

bered that this is the state which
the democrats tried to steal not
long ago, and when they failed in
their attempt the3 said the3- would

From the returns it is evident "their
majority" has never existed except
in the minds of the boodlers and
heelers of Helena. The value of
local democratic opinion as to re
publican fraud in previous elec

taken for what it is worth.

It is a pity that the meeting of
Presidents Diaz and Harrison was
prevented b3' circumstances over
which neither of them had control.
Half an hour's talk between the two
distinguished gentleman might
have done more toward accomplish
ing commercial reciprocit' and in
ternational railways than half a
dozen years of semi-diplomatic ne
gotiations. One of the penalties of
being president is that of confine
ment to ones own coimtrj' during the
term of office. Monarchs leave
tleir realms and make friendly
visits to other monarchs, butapres-j
ident cannot so much as step across
the border without forfeiture of
office. However the interchange of
friendly sentiments just made be

hereafter may bring forth good
fruit.

An Abused Language.
It is curious to note what vulga
creep into the American language, e-
the language spoken by well educated,
not to say cultured, people. Just at pres
ent the ear is harrowed hy a phrase, or
rather a word, much used by our belles
who assist afternoon hostesses at that
function called a "tea,." "Aly dear,"
Bays one girl to another, "I'm invited to
pour for Mrs. Commonwealth next
Wednesday." "Oh, are you? Well,
she asked me to turn, but I had another
engagement." Heavens and earth, I
thought, what is the meaning of "pour"
and "turn?" It was some time before
the verbs and their implied noun made
a connection in my brain, and then the
desire to stand these young women in a
corner was so intense I retired to avoid a
demonstration.
The century has indeed grown old and
lazy where the tongue finds so small a
word as "tea" difficult of utterance. To
pour tea is about as simple a phrase as
can be spoken, and to drop the final
word tea is to render it intolerably vul
gar. The custom at large afternoon re
ceptions here of having two good look
ing girls perform this service, generally
imposed on servants in well appointed
houses in London, is thoroughly Amer
ican, and so, too, is the abominable fault
wliich has gro.vn out of it. Boston
