The cry of calamily that is rai-ed
and that is encouraged lor political
purposes by the democratic party,
is an insult thrown in the face of
every intelligent 1111 11 who iswillin;
to work, ami who wants to better
his condition. There has never
been in (lie history of the govern
ment such direct prosperity, such
inspiration for business growth in
the future, as has followed the in
corporation into the si at lite books
of the pi im iple of protection ami
reci procit , as out lined in the Mc,
Kinley bill. It is business for every
man to st.iml by prosperity ami
keep the betterment of bis own in
diviilual interests uppermost in his
mind. The placing' of power in the
hands of democracy means a tear
ing' down instead of a building up,
and relrojp ression instead 't pro
gression. The republican party h is
never taken a backwark step, and it
has looked steadily forward, is why
the republican campaign this year
is a campaign for prosperity. Pros
perity is not found in the weeds of
last year's growth, and where dead
issues are buried. There are evi
dences on every hand of this devcl
opiny power that underlies protec
tion. New manufacturing plants
are Hprinin up in Nebraska. Two
conspicuous examples are the cot
ton mill at Kearney and the LYc
mont binding twine factory. K'e
publican legislation makes these
ev idenees of prosperity literal facts,
while democratic legislation would
abolish them. The development of
our own country is republicanism
and contribution to foreign inter
ests is democracy. A republican
campaign can not be else than a
campaign for prosperity.
Coupled with protection that
builds up and develops, comes reci
procity that extends American com

ENGLISH CHtAPNKSS
The lloston lleral reccnth ad
vanced the astounding assertion
that the cost of living is two and a
half times as great in this country
as in Knglnud. The liostou Jour
nal has had the industry to look up
the letters to the Herald of its
London correspondent, and finds in
one of them a refutation of the
Herald's assertion. "When will that
egregious superstition about F.ng
lish cheapness vanish?" asks the
correspondent, and proceeds:
"American furniture is wanted in
London. Ilring it here and sell it
at American prices ami you will
undersell the liritish dealers ami
carry away their trade bodily . They
cannot compete with you."
"What!" exclaims some fellow
countryman of ours, who is a
victim to the musty superstition
about liritish cheapness. Hut let
the good man hold his peace.
Modern furniture is not onlv much
cheaper ia the 1'nited Slates than
in Knglaud. it is better made, more
artistic in design and more suitable'
for the purpo.-e for which it is in
teuded, and the be-'t of it is from
one-half In one -quarter the price of
ordinary Kuglish stull. If anyone
doubts that I vi!l undertake to
furnish him with Knglish price
lists from the best known dealers,
ami then he may convince himself.

DAN SICKLE V ELOW.
I'"'' of the most significant
speeches at the Grand Army h
union was made by that faun. us
democratic soldier, Gen. S; kb
Added to the significance of the
words themselves was the further
fact that they were vociferously ap
plauded, lie first praised President
Harrison as a brave soldier whom
he knew and honored, and as the
applause over his earnest ami
graceful treatment of his subject
subsided he added: "And be did
not scud a substitute 10 the war."
At this the cheering became mighty
and continuous.
Just at the close of this fssenibly
of his old Third Corps the General
rose again and proceeded as fol
lows: "There was a point which I in
tended to niake.but in the rambling
nature of my remarks I neglected
to do, which 1 will take this oppor
tunity of stating. You have 1 card,
no doubt, some cranks and some
snarlers who complain about your
little pensions, 'They say the
amount is becoming immense, and
talk about reducing it. I will prove
to you. my boys, that you are en
titled to every bit of it, and dt serve
more- It is y ours by the law, and I
would be willing to leave the case
to any fair-minded jury.
"You are undoubtedly aware that
maritime law especially provides
that should any one lind a vessel in
an imperiled or dangerous condi
tion and bring her safely to port,
thus saving the cargo and vessel,
that the person or persons acting
thus me entitled to a salvage. This
salvage amounts to a quarter, a
half, or even a greater proportiouof
the entire value of the cargo and
vessel.
"Now that is just the case with
you. boys. Your little pension is
your salvage, and a mighty small
one it is. You found the great ship
of state imperiled and on the brink
of destruction. It was your hero
ism and bravery that saved it and
salvage is due you.
"Go back to your homes, ami
when your quibbling neighbor,
who probably sent a sub.-titute,
talks t. your about y our pension,
remember what ! have said to you.
H your sensible, you will not aid to
place in the executive chair any one
who oppo-es the payment of pen
sions to the soldiers who put hiwn
the rebellion."
In opposition to this position of
( I'ii. Sickles comes the Durham (X.
C.l Globe with his platform:

PECK AND THE MUGWUMP'S
Labor Ciir.imis-.ioner Peck replies
t 1 l is inugvumpian persecutors bv
au avowal of his intent to hasten
the publication ol that report which
h is excited their anger, and to re
enforce it by an elaborate indorse,
incut in statistical form of the bene
fn icnl workings of the McKinley
bill.
In default of argument or fad
wheewith to answer his report, the
mugwumps are striving hard to
have the learned and undismayed
commissioner committed to jail.
This is putting back the shadow on
the dial of time with a vengeance!
When the southern democrat etui
not silence a political opponent by
calling him "a nigger lover" he
proceeds to pelt him with rotten
eggs, and if that fails to silence
him, or to drive him out of south
ern territory, murder is invoked as
a last resort. When a New York
mugwump can not silence a politi
cal opponent by calling him "a
traitor" he proceeds to pelt him
with the rottenest eggs of foul
rhetoric; if that fails to silence him
he seeks to cast him into prison.
The northern Mugwump and the
southern democrat hold like ideas
as to the limitation of freedom of
speech and of the press,
M A'i'Tii i:v GiiiiMNi;. Platt-mouth's
greatest orator-lawyer has been
having a triumphal march
through the northwestern part ol
the state last week, ami returned
home Saturday ev ening lull of con
fidence "that if any man on the
democratic state is elected I will
be that man." Sev er il republican
newspapers which are supporting
the rest of the republican ticket
have hoi-ted the name of Cass
county s lavorite. While Tin; 1 1 i-;k-At.hdoes
not believe that any dem
ocrat on the state ticket can be
elected this year it has 110 hesitancy
in saying that if one must be the
republicans of Cass hope that man
will be Matthew Gering. Gering
will be a credit to Cass county if
elected, 1 Alt he is too good a bov to
be a democrat.
Auisli does not win votes, and,
while democrats may admire the
aggressiveness of The Journal,
when the votes are counted it will
be found that such aggressiveness
as The Journal uses is not n pay
ing investment.

oppo-ili.iu of Wednesday was
feeble and ha'.f heartetl, yd several
cases of murder have been re
ported. Probably others occurred
which have not been reported, and
may never be. The retirement of
GenerM Weaver from the state,
driven out by meb indignities, was
the end of the Georgia campaign,
and the shots since lired were of
the random sort.
It was thought that Congressman
Watson might be elected, but he
was defeated. His fate is unim
portant. He differs from the
regular democrats only in being
cranky, .as for statesmanship or
re.-pect for the principles of free
and honest elections he is no im
provement on the average Georgian.
He shot off on a tangent because
he entertains absurd notions of
taxation and finance, especially
the latter. His popularity, so far
as he has any, lies mainly in the
act that bis constituents are
as
ignorant and prejudiced as him
self. The truth is, that had it not
been for the rotten eggs and
hoodlums, Georgia would have at
tracted less political attention than
almost any other state in the union.
Alabama may well be watched
with interest. It is thoroughly
aroused to the importance of
restoring the right of suffrage. The
counting out of K0ll kindled a
flame which is still burning
brightly and fiercely. It is of in.
terest to know t fie real significance
of that ire. It reddened' the whole
horizon of the state a short time
ago. Was it a bed of anthracite or
a pile of shavings, November will
make answer.
So far as th,. pending ( lection

ocratic contemporary, the Kansas!
City Times, makes a very odd effort
to prove its opinion that the "tariff
is the issue."
"That the tiriff is the issue is fur

Times figure up republican major
ities in states which have not been
so harshly dealt with in the way of
lower tariff? The ta.lilf is about
the finest thing for ' democrats to
b'l alone this year that the cam
paign affords.
