The Plattsmouth Weekly Tribune
will make its initial appearance next
week. It will bo Independent in poli
tics anil starts out with plenty of capi
tal behind it to make it a stayer. The
oflico is in one of the roar rooms of the
Sherwood block, opposite the Hunk of
Cass county.
G. Fweu Williams was one of the
Hitchcock brand of patriots who kept
carefully to the rear and jelled for
war, and then as soon as it is over he
has nothing but scandalous criticisms
for those who were loyal to the Hag
and tried to uphold it. Such citizen,
are worth nothing to the country, and
their political opinions should be
looked upon as trasu.
Nevici: in the history of Cass county
has a populist held a county oHice and
as long as the- tie up with democra
cy thoy can count on it that democracy
will take the lion's share of tho spoils.
Old democracy has played her cards
well but tho game is becoming old
and some of the more intelligent pops
are opening their eyes and will refuse
to be made cat's paws to rnke demo
cratic chestnuts from the lite. Louis
ville Courier.
John Bull, seems to be getting his
fighting clothes on. A recent order
to begin no work on the ships of the
reserve squadron that would detain
them over lorty-eight hours, looks
as though he wanted to run a
big bluff on his French neighbor, or
else he wanted to be ready to fight on
short notice. The order is a porten
tious one in any event, and will be
read all over Europe today with un
feigned interest.
In those days of sudden friendship
and ovcrbounding love for the old
soldier it might be well for them to
reflect that candidates on the repub
lican ticket never havo to make spe
cial personal professions of a "liberal
pension policy." The traditions of
the republican party make such un
necessary. Ft-ienlines and liberality
toward the men men who saved the
UDion is instinct in a republican, oth
ers of coure may acquire it, and some
times do so, but it is e unusual and so
unexpected that they have to speak
about it, lest it be overlooke J.
The speeches made by President
McKinley at Omaha, St. Louis,
Springfield, Chicago, aud intermedi
ate points, are a new revelation of the
greatness of this simple-minded, un
pretentious, conscientious man who
occupies the post of chief executive. In
all that he has said there has been no
bombast and no rant. He h is spokea
plainly, feelingly and unreservedly of
the problems that confront tho admin
istration and the country. He has
not glorified himself nor I'm republi
can party. He ha pointed to certain
results and indicated the line of poli
cy that would be pursued in the fu
ture. Kearney Hub.
It may be said, in parenthesis, that
we are now making in this country
nearly all the tin plate we are using.
In 1890, the year we put the justly
celebrated McKinley law on the broks,
we bought 31S,00) tons from Wales,
whereas last year we bought 83,517
tons and the amount has bsoa growing
rapidly and beautifully less every min
ute since. And it will be remembered
that Mr. Bryan and the rest stood up
and everlastingly howled at the tax on
tiD, just as he and the rest six years
later howled at tho "iniquitous gold
standard" and tin plate is cheaper
now than then. Stand up for Ameri
can tin and the gold standard. Ex.
Hon. J. P. Dollivek: It rests with
the American people now to say
wdelher the business world is to be
allowed to go on in security or whether
we are to give a new commission to
the defeated leaders of 1890 to organ
ize anothor raid upon the credit and
. uLvrity of tho community. I do not .

The fiople of tho First congress
ional district of Nebraska cannot af
ford to send to congress a man whose
political associations will In any way
hinder his best and heartiest support
to Major McKinley in the closing up
of the Spanish war. A free silver
congress could not enact a free silver
law, nor a free trade congress displace
the Dingley law, for McKinley with
his veto could defeat an3' such legisla
tion, but either could, and undoubtedly
would, absolutely defeat Mr. McKin
ley 's plan9 for settling the Spanish
oinbroglio by attaching to administra
tion me;.t.urt:d free silver and free
trade ride s. Tho next two years in
congress will be taken up iu adjusting
this war, and if tho people havo confi
dence in McKinley's honesty and
ability to conclude thete war matters
as successfully as ho has prosecuted
them, then they should surround him
with men who at all time.-, and upon
all occasions will be unembarrassed
by political prejudices. Vote for E. J.
Burkott and mi p port the administra
tion. JL'Ic;h C KITES f Cnadron expresses
himself on the fusion situation in the
following terse letter which is worth
perusal: "Affairs in the state, in the
congressional districts, in the legisla
tive districts and elsewhere, have
been so conducted as to leave demo
crats nothing worth striving for. In
difference and apathy, not to say dis
gust, prevails among them all over
the state, and the best reasons exist
therofor. The democratic party can
not contin ue to bo a mere loiterer at
the tables of the populist Dives, ac
cepting crumbs and kicks with equal
equanimity. I am not opposed to
fusion, but lam opposed to absorption.
Fairness and justice are quito as ap
plicable to politics as well as to other
affairs and had these principles pre
vailed during the last four years' you
would now behoid a much different
sentiment among democrats all over
the state. To quiet them and hold
them in line, it is now said that all
opposed to republicanism will, in an
othor year, classify themselves and
act as democrats, but such an expec
tation seems to me to be as baseless
as the rainbow." The withdrawal of
Judge Crites from the race for county
attorney insures the election of W. H.
Fauning, the republican nominee, as
it is believed that tho entire de
mocratic support will be thrown to
him.
INFORMATION AND OPINION.
Because Senator Thurston captured
and controlled Senator Allen's vote in
the senate on numerous occosions, it
has been claimed that Thurston is
now supporting Ailen for re-election,
which is without the slightest founda
tion in truth. Thurston's loyalty
should not be questioned.
E- J. Burkett, the republican nomi
nee for congress in the First district,
as a man whom every voter can take
pride in supporting. He came to
Lincoln a j'oung man without an ac
quaintance. He devoted himself stud
iously to the legal profession. He
was an indefatigable worker and at
tended to the business entrusted to
him with such care and energy that
he grew into a fine practice in a com
paratively short time. He is a man
of excellent character, and good
judgment. He will support President
McKinley in carrying out republican
principles and a republican policy.
State Journal.
Oa tho suif .ee of things Franco
may need a war to prc-serv.s the
government by diverting attention
from domes-tic scandals, and yet it is
scarcely possible tht a test of
strength witn England would do more
for the government th in the Franco
Prussian war did for the dynasty of
Louis Napoleon. France needs, more
than anything else, a big importation
of Anglo-Saxon st-nse and pa'.ience.
Until the pe ple learn to look upon
public affairs more calmly and phil
osophically the material welfare of
the nation is bound to be seriously
impaired by political discord, if not
actual revolution. Ex.
Tho Nebraska exponent of yellow
journalism is uouing its be$t to divert
attention from the state house ring by
wildy beating the air in the direction
of a modest scientific gentleman in
Philadelphia. The ruse will not work.
Nobody knows that the Philadelphian
ever did anything wrong, but the
whole state knows that the states house
people have sent out false campaign
material, have broken every pledge
they made to get into office, and have
involved nearly every state institution
they control in scandal and misman
agement. The republicans are per
fectly willing to discuss state as well
as QHlional itsues in this campaign.
but they refuse to enter into a debate
over Dr. H uidekoper just because the
Wourld-IIerald can find nothing else
that it dares to descuss. State Jour

P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago de Cuba, on
July 23, says: "We all had diarrhoea
in more less violent form, and when
we landed wo had no time to see a
doctor, for it was a case of rush and
rush night and day to keep the troops
supplied with amunition and rations,
but thanks to Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, wo
were able to keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, I sincerly believe
that at one critical time this medicine
was tbo indirect savior of our army,
for if the packers had been unable to
work there would have been no way
of getting supplies to the front. There
were no roads that a wagon train
oold use. My comrade and myself

oly of tnis medicine for our pack-train

of Safford, Ariz., writes: "Dr. King's

for Consumption, Coughs and Colds.
