THE
Of any Cass County Paper.
THE Omaha News-Republic, an
evening paper started two years ago,
suspended publication yesterday with
liabilities far in excess of its assets.
It takes money torun a newspaper,
but some people are slow in finding it
out.
Matt Quay thinks if McKinley
were to be chosen president he would
offend all the party leaders before his
term would bo half through. There
is probably some truth in thi3. It is
at least certain that the party bosses
could not use him for any dishonest,
sinister or crooked purpose. And the
people appear to understand this fact.
Fremont Tribune.
The administration wing of the dem
ocratic party has called its convention
fnr Lincoln to meet April 29 to select
delegates to their national convention.
The invitation to measure strength
with the silverites at the primaries
was declined with thanks on the
ground that the true test of numeral
strength was given last fall on the
vote for supreme judge, when Ma
honey, tne adminitration candidate,
ran far ahead of the free siver can
didate, Phelps.
With Colonel Colby, ex-Senator J.
D. Pope of Saline and N. V. Harlan of
York in the field as active congress
ional candidates it looks very much as
if tha "too previous" Mr. Hainer
miffht be consigned to the shades of
r
private life. The result in no con
gressional district in.the state will be
awaited with as much interest as in the
Fourth, which Mr. Hainer not long
ago, was supposed to have a mortgage
on. Let the good work move along.
Either of the first three candidates
would please the people.
In discussing the question as to
whether or not General Manderson is
a stalking horse or a delivery wagon
for some other candidate, the New
York Sun remarks: "The only candi
date who can properly be called a
delivery wagon is the Hon. Thomas
Brackett Reed; and- that in a sense
highly honorable to the speaker. He
has charge of the interests of all the
candidates in common. If he upsets
the vehicle, a republican nomination
this year will be a valueless possession.
'He is at present, and until -congress
adjourns, the custodian of republican
fortunes, no matter who may afterward
become the nominee of the St. Louis
convention."
Nebraska is as fertile in point of
candidates as the Hon. John Milton
Thurston is in point of metaphors. The
state prohibition convention has in
structed for the Hon. C. E. Bentley of
Lincoln as the dry man for president.
The Hon. Charles Francis Manderson
is a republican candidate, and the
Hon. Tobias Castor will be a powerful
and moving democratic candidate, and
every lover of 6ilver wheels and cart
wheels will shout for the Hon. Wm.
Jennings Bryan, the boy orator of the
Platte, as the fittest and highest
sounding chap for the populist nomi
nation. Candidates are as thick in
Nebraska now as grasshoppers were
in unhappier days. And speaking of
grasshoppers, the Hon. Julius Sterling
Morton may be a candidate for some
thing himself. New York Sun.
It is freely predicted that McKin
ley will be nominated on the first bal
lot, a compliment seldom bestowed in
this country. In but two of the ten
national conventions held by the re
publican party, has the nomination
been made on the first ballot when
there was a contest. These were the
conventions nominating Fremont and
Harrison. Pointers in advance of
the convention are often illusive. In
1860, Seward, whose nomination was
generally conceded, was defeated on
" tha third ballot, and in 1876, Blaine,
thought to be invincible, went down
on the sixth ballot. Says the Globe
Democrat: "However, present indi
cations are that McKinley will be
stronger in the convention of 1896
than Blaine was in the outset in that
of 1876, and much stronger than
Seward was in 1869. On the first bal
lot Blaine lacked ninety-three votes
that year of .the number required to
nominate. With such fluctuations, he
increased his vote to the end, but od
the last ballot, when all aspirants had
dropped out except Hayes, who won,
and Bristow, Blaine was twenty -eight
votes short of the. number needed.
Conservative estimates at present put
McKinley on the first ballot only forty
or fifty short of the required number.
With that narrow margin between
him and victory it would be impos
sible for his enemies to unite on any
body to defeat him. McKinley is the
' second choice of so 'many men who
have various other aspirants Tor a first
choice that enough votes could not be
concentrated to carry the convention.
It is entirely safe to predict that if
"-JIcKinly comes within seventy-five
votes on the first ballot a .stampede to
him on the second ballot cannot be
prevented."
TRYING TO CHECK UNDERVALUATIONS.
The appraisers' bill to prevent
frauds upon the Treasury by under
valuations has boon practically agreed
upon with a proviso in it which de
clares that if. the appraised value of
any article of imported merchandise
subject to an ad valorem duty shall ex
ceed by more than 5 per cent, the
value declared in the entry, there
shall be levied, in addition to the
duties regularly imposed by law upon
the article, 2 per cent, of the total ap
praised valuo for every 1 per cent
that the appraised value exceeds the
declared value in the entry. These
duties, running to 109 per cent, of the
value of the goods, may be remitted
only in cases of manifest clerical error
in the declared entry. But when the
appraised valuations exceed oO per
cent, of the declared value, except by
manifest error, the entry shall be held
to bo presumptively fraudulent, and
the collector shall seize the merchan
dise and proceedas in case of forfeit
ure for violations of the customs laws.
And this forfeiture shall apply to the
whole of the merchandise of which
the article found to be fraudulently
undervalued 6hull be a part. This will
be a wholesale reform in the appraise
ment aet,and should result in the stop
page of the ruinous undervaluations.
But another important feature' of
the proposed amendment to the act is
that which proposes to take from the
courts in trials of appealed cases the
questions of fact arising, and limit the
court to the questions of law alone.
This will make certain that the
questions of factconcerning fraudu'ent
undervaluations shall rest upon the
decisions of the appraisers and are
not to be combattsd by testimony of
importers or agents respecting the
actual valuation of goods against which
the charge of undervaluation rests.
This will make the appraisers the sole
judges of the questions of fact respect
ing the value of goods, which is of
tremendous importance. American
Economist
Ex-Judge. Chapman managed to
get quite an advertisement in a Ne
braska City paper yesterdav about
how ably he presented a case for the
removal of tho Murdock bank receiver
and how ho roasted the opposing
counsel and pointed out the under
handed methods of the plaintiffs
When he has the closing speech, so
that tho opposite attorney can not get
back at him, the ex-judge is very
brave. When talking of "underhanded
methods" the ex-judge is at home,
as every man in Cass county is aware,
and since his organ has blubbered
over again, we will shortly show where
he absolutely gutted the Chase Manu
facturing company of Weeping Water
at an expense to unfortunate creditors
of nearly 87,000. A more shameless
piece of robbery was never perpetrated
in this county under tho guisa of law
The Kentucky senatorship contest,
which has held the boars for so long.
bids fair only to end with the legisla
ture tomorrow. The feeling between
the tactions is described as running
very high and serious conflicts are pre
dieted for today and tomorrow. Gov
ernor Bradly, the republican execu
tive, has- called out a company of
militia which is armed and stationed
about the capitol to preset ve order
Tho democrats accustomed to success
ful bulldozing tactics in that state are
indignant that the governor should
attempt to circumscribe their inalien
able rights and use fiery language of
condemnation. The opinion seems to
prevail quito generally to tho effect
that there will bo no election and
Kentucky willbavo to get along with
one senator until the legislature meets
a grain.
Spain continues her preparations
for war with the United States, while
tne latter country iooks on as com
placently as the old women did at the
bear fight. The decrepit old mon
archy nxiy got called, in her bluff, and
in that event the entire Spanish army
would soon be hunting for a place to1
hide. England recently very em
phatically disavowed any intention of
assisting or encouraging Spain in case
war should break out between the two
countries.
A FREE silver -paper has been
launched in Nebraska City by Messrs.
Land is & Burkett, called the Otoe
Chief. It promises to speak its senti
ments once a week, and we must say
the initial number is clean and bright
as anyone could desire. We havn't
been converted to the free silver
theory yet, but we hope the new firm
may bo able to reap a good harvest of
silver dollars.
The hearing for a removal of the
receiver in the Murdock bank matter
which Mr. Chapman and his "protege"
have been trying to the newspapers,
will come up for a hearing before
Judge Ramsey Monday when the ne
cessity for their newspaper trial will
be made apparent. The plaintiffs have
not found it necessayy to resort to any
such expediency to bolster up their
case.

There is trouble in Kentucky, there is worriment

The eastern politicians find no rest.

But everything is lovely inthe west.

It will be generally conceded that
Nebraska has been getting a little
more than her share of drought dur
ing the past several vears many of
our larmers, oeeomiuy uicuiuiaf;
with continued crop failures, disposing
of their farms-and immigrating to a
climo whero the clouds were more
liberal in the distribution of rain.
But if we are to go by present Judica
tions, there will" be an abundant sup
ply of rain forthcoming during the
next crop season, and the farmer will
undoubtedly again wear that hapyy,
confidential smile as he views his
blooming orchard and fertile fields.
If our anticipations are roalized, it
would be a good plan to invito those
hasty immigrants to come back and
take a peep at the barren "fields they
left behind, and it is sale to say they
wili abuse themselves for not staying in
Nebraska.
A deposit of mineral paint has been
disvered along the bluffs of the Platte
river in Sarpy county, and it is said to
be of- superior quality. Tests are
being made, and should It be found as
good as the discoverers claim for it, a
company will be formed to put it on
the market This is about the seven
hundreth find of this kind along the
Missouri river in this state, but the
finest deposits yet found is that just
a mile south of the city, some of which
wns taken out bv the citizens some
thirty years ago. Nebraska City

A cave allegedto rival in extent and
grandeur the great Mammoth cave has
been discovered in Edmonson county.
Ky.,in which the Mammoth cavo issit
uated. The newspapers of that region
tell many stories of the remarkable
character of the new cave. It was dis
covered by a traveling photographer
of Bowling Green several weeks ago.
He stumbled across an opening in the
rocks and following it downward sixty
feet found himself in an immense cave
He got others to accompany him in an
exploration of the cave, and it is al
leged that more than sixty miles of
subterranean avenues have been ex
plored: It is said that a company has
been formed to exploit the cave, that
it will be lighted with electricity, and
that an electric railway will be built
to its mouth from Cavo City.
From experiments at Fremont it
looks is though sugar beet would bo
a profitable crop from which alcohol
would be made.
More triumphs for McKinley are
daily recorded. At .Lincoln j-esterday
out of a little over 3,000 votes cast in
the republican primary those express
ing a first choice for McKinley
reachdd the astonishing proportions of
2,614, while the Manderson strength
was only a little over 300 votes. Even
in Omaha the McKinly force is almost
two to one as against any other candi
date. The "favorite son" idea seems
to havo miscarried.
If Senator Thurston wants to keep
his name untarnished as a loyal,
brainy leaderjhe will stop this non
sensical talk of compromise with Man
derson forces. Nebraska is for Me
Kiuley. The people are paramount
and they will see that only McKinley
men are sent to St. Louis. There will
be no' half-way business transacted
Ihe Spanish government has now
practically said that if we acknowl

Will people never learn that a

and that when it occurs treatment
should be promptly applied? Tharo is
no 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 gavo no con
