When a fellow is scrapping for an office, turning heaven and earth to get support, and comes out in a public plea for help, the Omaha Bee in big headlines calls it a "frank avowal of his candidacy." The employes of the woolen mills which have been driven into working only two-thirds time by the present tariff law might certainly be excused for entertaining strong opinions about the holding up of the house tariff bill in the senate. McKlNLEY stated the case very clearlv the other day when he said that "the republican party would as soon think of lowering the flag of the country as to contemplate without pro' test and opposition any attempt to de grade or corrupt "the medium of ex change among the people." Globe- Democrat. If Weyler, after vhe fifteen days' warning, treats all captured Cubans as bandits and shoots them, as he threat ens to do, the Cubans, may conclude that the Soaniards are even worse bandits, and treat them accordingly. This would make the situation hotter than the burning of the sugarcane. Council Bluffs Nonpareil. William C. Whitney is the latest democrat to inform his friends that he does not want a presidential -nomina tion this year from the democratic na tional convention. Nobody will feel inclined to dispute with Mr. Whitney on this point. If he does not want this empty honor he need not have it. There are other rich men in the demo cratic party who would be willing to sacrifice some of their worldly goods just for glory and to help the cause along. Bee. McKinley's town of Canton, O., has a newspaper with a unique his tory. It was founded in 1815 by John Saxton, the grandfather of Mrs. Mc Kinley, and remained for nearly sixty years under his management. News did not travel very fast when this pa per began its career. Waterloo was fought in June, but Mr. Saxton was not able to tell his readers about it un til September. The progress in news paper methods since that time is one of the wonders of the story of civilization. It appears that sugar is now being produced in Cuba only under military protection, and at a largely increased expense. In one case, it is stated, the M'KINI.EY IN NEW YORK. More than a. week ago the Buffalo Commercial published interviews with a large number of republicans of that city as . to their presidential prefer ences. Those interviewed were not in active politics, bat might be put down as average voters. The result showed an almost unanimous demand for Mc Kinley, he having a greater number of admir'ers than all other candidates combined. Last Saturday the Commercial pub lished interviews with representative republicans living in fourteen of the principal towns in western New York outside of Buffalo. These men are in no way connected with machine poli tics, but are intelligent business and professional men. The result of last Saturday's interviews is thus sum marized: McKlnley 374 Morton 43 Keea i Allison 6 This shows that it is not simply a Buffalo faction that wants the Ohio man nominated. The Commercial is satisfied that at least three-fifths of the republican voters of western New York are unreservedly for McKinley, Toledo Blade. lowing in tha wake of the senate, has passed the resolution recognizing the belligerency of the Cubans by the de cisive vote of 236 for to 17 votes against. The general public endorses this action emphatically, and if bpain doesn't like it she can make the most of it. The army of unemployed in this country, ever since it turned toward free trade, is sufficient to whip Spain without assistance.. INSTRUCTED FOR M'KINLEY. The republican state convention which met here says a Little Rock, Ark., telegram this afternoon was the largest and most representative gathering of that party since 1872. Powell Clayton, H. L. Remmel, Henry M. Cooper and M. W. Gibb were elected delegates at large to the re publican national convention. The resolutions instruct the delegates at large and the congressional district delegates to vote for McKinley for president; favors bimetallism, with such restrictions and under such pro visions to be determined by legisla tion as will secure the maintenance of the parity of values of theiwo metals so that the purchasing and debt-pay- iner power of the dollar, whether of sold, or paper, shall be at all times equal, and indorsing the action of con- eressSin declaririer that a condition of public war exists in Cuba. The telegraph brings the . cheerful news that the supreme court of Pen- . nsylvania says II. H. Holmes the multi -murderer must hang. The only unfortunate thing about it is that he can hang but once, and pay the penalty for but one of his numer&us bloody crimes. This country, if the half is true, never produced the equal of this criminal as a taker of human life. j. The Roentgen rays are wonderful things. In HoboKen a policeman shot a ray through a closed saloon on Sun day and found seven men at the bar, and then he turned the rays through the men and found seven whiskies in side of them, and the next day the po lice judge fined 'em all. The mills of the stills, etc., but justice comes with the daylight. Ex. " The York Vidette lays down the gauntlet to the men who are after Me Kinley's scalp in vigorous fashion, and tells tbe so-called Manderson follow ers that they must fight for.what they get, as Nebraska will not be turned racket. TnE McKinley boom grows rapidly as the days of winter longthen into spring, and from all appearances be fore the ides of autumn his nomina tion, as well as his election, will uni versally be conceded. lioitACE jjoies, oi lowa, nas given out a statement that he is not a can didate for President. This is the first intimation the country has had for some time that Mr. Boies is on earth A prominent democrat of state rep utation was asked a few days ago by a News man whom his party was likely to nominate for the presidency. "Well I'll te;l you,"responded the dem ocratic war-horse, "to be frank with you, I don't care a d n who. I am for McKinley, and I expect to get to vote for him for president. I am still a democrat you may call me a Mc Kinley democrat if you please. There is just one national issue before the people of this country today, and a man who would prefer the Wilson bill and Wilson bill times to the McKin ley bill and the kind of times attend ant thereto, doesn't know enough to come in out of the rain." Bill Nye's jokes were not apprecia ted in England; but that is high praise, for the average Englishman cannot appreciate a real joke under any circumstances. This paper is voicing the sentiment of nine-tenths of the republican voters in Cass county in supporting Wm. J. McKinly for president. The republican national convention, which meets at St. Louis in June, will have 911 delegates. The Allison boom does not seem to be able to soar beyond the boundaries of Iowa.

Will people never learn that a lcpld" is an accident to be dreaded, and that when it occurs treatment should be promptly applied? There is ho knowing where the trouble will end; and while complete recovery is the rule, the exceptions are terribly frequent, and thousands after thou sands of fatal illnesses occur every year ushered in by a little injudicious exposure and seemingly trifling symptons. Beyond this, there are to day countless invalids who can trace their complaints to "colds," which at the time of occurrence gave no con cern, and were therefore neglected.

This means that the con tinuance of tbe war is sure to make sugar higher in the United States;and such a fact is in itself a sufficient jus tification for interference on the part of our government. It is a curious fact that a large pro portion of the members of the Senate live in country towns or small cities. The only cities of 10u,000 or more in habitants represented in that body are St. Paul, Indianapolis, Albany, Providence, Kansas City, Milwaukee, Newark, Detroit, Omaha and Denver; and not one of all the senators resides in any of the thirteen largest cities by the census of 1890. This is not merely an accident of the present time. The rural districts have always been pro lific in political leaders, and will prob ably always continue to furnish a con siderable majority of our recognized statesmen. .Spaln is putting on her fiirhting clothes as rapidly as possible since Senator Sherman and a few others championed the Cuban insurgent recognition measure, so vigorously the " other day. They talk very impudently about going to war with Uncle Sam in the face of the fact that they have been nearly two. years trying to whip a helpless, -poverty-stricken' little island into submission. If . we had a true ' blue .patriotic Amercan at the helm instead, of the man who sent a substitute to tbe front in 1861, Spain; would change her tune very quickly and tbe patriotic Cubans would soon be free and independent of the bur densome yoke that has held the peo pie in poverty down there for two hun dred years.

Where Moslem Are Moat Nnmeroiu. Far in advance of any other nation in the number of the Moslems under its rule is Great Britain. In India alcne there are about 60,000,000 Mohamme dans, and they outnumber all the sub jects of the sultan more than two to one. Betides, England rules Mohamme dans in other parts of her vast empire, though not many in any one place. The queen is the sovereign of many millions more Moslems than Christians. China is believed to come next as a country inhabited by many followers of the prophet. The number of Mohamme dans in the Chinese empire is estimated all the way from 30,000,000 to 50,000, 000, and the smallest of the guesses is more than Turkey can match. Holland also has nearly or quite 30,000,000 Mos lem subjects in her populous and rich East Indian possessions. Java has fully 25,000,000 people, and nearly all of them are Mohammedans. The Turkish empire is supposed to contain about 23,000,000 Moslems, counting the portion of Arabia in which the authority of the Bultan is not very well established and is in danger of lie ins destroyed at any time. Therefore it is apparent that unless great error has been made in estimating the number of Mohammedans in the Chinese empire the Bultan is only fourth -among rulers of great bodies of men and women who believe in Mohammed. Bnt among other countries which are dominated by the Moslem element of their population and are under the sway of a Mohammedan ruler the Turkish em pire ia easily first in numbers and in power for evil. Cleveland Leader. The Danger of Silence. I once had a case (said a member of the bar) against a man in the country which was as clear as daylight in my favor, but, by the cunning of his law yer, he had continued to avoid coming to trial for about two years. At last the case was called, late in the term and late in a hot day, the court and jury tired and impatient, stated the facts and produced the evi dence, which was all on my side. The judge asked tho counsel whether they wished to argue the case, stating that he hardly thought it necessary to submit it in so plain a matter. The law yers agreed to submit it without argu ment. The jury went out and immedi ately returned with a verdict for the de fendant. As soon as the conrt adjourned I sought the foreman of the jury", and ask ed him how in the name of common sense they came to render such a verdict. "Why, yon see," said he, "we didn't think much of the lawyer against you, and it wasn't strange he didn't have nothing to say; but, squire, the fact is we thought you was about one of the smartest lawyers in the country, and if yon couldn't find nothing to say on your side it must be a pretty hard case, so we had to go against you. " Pearson's Weekly. Close Shave With a Leopard. I walked a little nearer the edge of the ledge to listen if I could hear any thing in the gap, as we could not tell where the dogs or the leopard had got o. I heard a slight rustle below, wheth er in the bush or on tho ledge I could not tell, and there was no time to find out, for with a rush and a bound the leopard threw himself against the krantz, clutching at the grass roots on top with the claws of one fore paw the other was broken just above the wrist .and. I -sOuiu hear Jiis I7Tui ciuVa V J ing on the rocks in his endeavors to scramble up. I knew that he was very close to me. His great blood smeared paws were within six feet, and I could see his wicked yellow eyes glaring sav agely and the saliva, red tinged, drop ping from the gleataing tusks. As Nogwaja ran in with uplifted as segai I fired down into the brute's mouth, and with a savage gasp he fell down on to the ledge below. The plucky Swazi, without waiting to see if he was dead, jumped down on top of him and gave him a final thrust with his assegai ere life had sped. Kir by. feMN -J f 1 V .

Nebraska City News. WHO is L. D. Fowler? This morn ing's Bee gives great prominence to a letter which he writes to Gen'l Man derson, using it as an adroit method of booming the latter for the presidency. If anyone knows who Fowler is, or why his opinion should be taken-, let them speak out. The fact still re mains that the republican party of Nebraska is for McKinly, and it will take more than maneuvering and po litical finesse to dislodge him. It looks as though a . struggle at the pri maries would be the result in trder to wrest the state from the man of its choice for standard- bearer this fall. Senor De Lome's reply to the Span- isn government tnat tne senate over here is an irresponsible body of not much weight or accountin this gov ernment, which consists mostly of the president, may be regarded as a fair return for the 'insults" offered Spain by the debaters the other day, and perhaps will close the incident. It may be truth that a soft answer turn eth away wrath, but itfrequontly hap pens mac a oiling sarcasm comlorts a sufferer and restores peace. Lincoln Journal. Spain is making an effort to get the other European countries interested in ner behalf so that she can afford to talk back at "Uncle Sam" in case Cleveland issues the "belligerency message" which congress endorses, and which this country has a right to expect. The other Monarchies may have lots of sympathy for Spain but they will hardly place themselves in a position to stir up feeling in our do main against them. Allen Blacker, formerly clerk of the U. S. district court in this city and who wont to the war from Otoe county as captain of company B, is now living in El Puso, Texas, where for ton years he presided over the district and made a very efficient judge.
