THE resifrnution of Secretary Aljjor will be a ruiit disappointment to tho popoeratie editors of tho country. They will ho o'lied to t'et a new tarjrot. Tiik Evenin-! I'oat insi.-ts that C. S. Folk is a candidate fur district judtfo. It socms tho matter hus jjono so far that one can say he is i:t least in the hands of his enemies'. It is not known that George Wash ington assassinated any of his com manding generals. It is about time to call the parallel between Washington and Aguinaldo an error of judgment. It skums that Ilolcorab got a mort gage on tho etato during his terms of oflico and was foreclosing it when he was rolioved. He succeeded in mak ing a vory ugly rent in the troasury . It will not tako the untutored Fili pino many moons to discover that tho Amorican dollar is for some reason or other worth twice as much as tho Spanish dollar which ho has been using. IIolcomh drew from the state about $"() per month for rent and paid out $:0 for rent and made his own repairs. Wo presume the othor $20 per month went for repairs of fusion fences and privato hedges. The Chattanooga Times advi-nee Mr. Bryan to eithor speak less or else get him a new speech. Mr. Bryan hasn't made that speech yet "explaining" about all those Nebraska mortgages being cancelled, regardless of the re jection of free silver. IT IS too b:d there is not a brand of democracy which can he recognized as genuine without having tho namo burnt in tho cork. It is difficult for tho ordinary democrat of Chicago to determine whether Altgold or Har rison represents tho pure stuff, and Bryan is unable to help him out. FUSION leaders have been shouting thomselves hoarso over tho alleged misconduct of certain members of the supremo court, and have contended that tho investigation showed the pop office-holders to be examples of purity. They are singing very low just now, waiting for Holcomb to tell how it was, and occasionally hissing, Simon traitor! Thk wicked Ding-ley tariff is work ing havoc. In the fiscal year just closed rU the countries of tho world, with the exception of four which re duced their imports of breadstuff's largely increased their purchases in the United States The sales of man ufactured articles to all parts of the world has boen beyond all precedent. Democratic leaders have gotten be yond trying to "explain." If Mr. Porter is as innocent of the rottenness that has lately been un earthod by the Prout committee as he pretends, why don't he appear before tho committee and give iu hi6 testi mony? Last fall ho proclaimed from tho stump through the st ito the many hundreds of thousands of dollars that "I saved the state." It will now be in order for Mr. Porter to come forward and explain the transmission of ballots by tho under-ground system. Thk statistics regarding the casual ties in the Philippines are vory inter esting and show the First Nebraska to have suffered the greatest of any vol unteer regiment, with tho Twontioth Kansas as a close second. In tho First regiment there wore twenty-six killed in action; died from disease, twenty one; died from wounds, twelve, total, Gfty-nine. One hundred and eighty two were wounded. The boys were always in tho thiekost of the light and are receiving much praise for their bravery.. Thk New York Journal has again demanded of the president that he epei:k out and announce a definite policy concerning the Philippines, and the Cincinnati Enquirer joins in the echo. Yet both of these yellow sheets know that the president has no author ity to announce a permanent policy which this country shall assume toward any of tho territory acquired from Spain. This prerogative lios solely with congress and those papers well know it, but they count on deceiving people who may not know. They would create the impression, and they intimate, that tho president lacks backbone, and that he is afraid to de It is, indeed, a doplorablo statu ot affairs when tho loaders of a great political party cannot get together and all put their feet under tho sumo Imnauetting table. Mayor Harrison insists that if Mr. Hi-van will not dis approve of the Altgeld brand of demo cracy he will. This action on tho part of Mr. Harrison is to be commended. He has the courage of his convictions, while Mr. Bryan is willing to forego prineip il, and to mix up with most any sort of a job-lot of pol itical outlaws in order to get an opportunity to make a speech. INFORMATION AND OI INION. San Francisco has raised some $:J5, 500 of the dcrdrod $."0,000 for a monu ment to Admiral Dewoy to be set up in that city. Now it asks the rest of the state of California to come in and help make up the fund. According to the report of railway statistics for 18'JS, one's chances of being injured in a railway accident are one in 170,141, and of being killed are one in 2,207,270. Most poo pie aro willing to take tho chaucos. President Tucker of Dartmouth is a believer in newspapers. "7 do not," ho says, "accept tho idealized state ment of Lord lloncbery, who would eliminate the editorial page from the newspapo". When the journalist has the truth of tho fact in his possession and has given it to us his professional work has just li.-gun. Ho is to inter pret aiid apply the eminent fact." A small bottle-no.-ed whale 11 feet long and 0 feet in circumference has been captured off the Essex coast, and is now to be seen on the beach at Southend. It was surprised near the shore by some local fishermen, who managed to take it by tangling it up in an old shrimp net Its vitality was so great tlmt it lived for f0 hours after capture. Tho idea of tackling a ton of live'y whale with a shrimp not does not in the least impress its ciptors, who, says our correspondent, "would go for a si a serpent with a half inch rope.

Richard Whitton, John li. Jones and a Mr. Zimmerman, farmors living south of Wymoro, Nob , are losing their stock from hydrophobia. Lnst fall a rabid dog bit several hend of cattlo in that neighborhood, but the cattle showed no effects of it until a few days ago, when several fine cattle went mad and had to be killed. The farmers arc considerably alarmed over tho b ilnneo of their stock, as the loss is al ready quite heavy. Nebraska City News. Internal Revenue Collector Holtz is after the concessionaires at the expo sition. Commissioner -Wilson lias ruled that the shows a re subject to a special tax and the local revenue men aro appraising the n mount of tax that it is proper for each to pay. Last year tho shows escaped the clutches of the government, but the decision of last year has been reversed, and all exhibit'ons charging a special fee will have to pay the internal revenue tax. The Greater American Exposition has already complied with the law. This tax, however, is not sufficient to cover separate exhibitions where another fee is charged the public or admis sion. In order to escape this tax they would have to bo under the direct su pervision of the managers of the ex position, which is not the case. The tax will vary from $25 to $100. California is going to exhibit 29,000 bottles of its wine at Paris, just to show the Parisians that there are oihtr vineyards than those of France. - According to the Chinese method of criminal prosecution a man is respon sible for the crime he may have com mitted personal', but if he chooses to escape justice by running away from tho place where the deed was com mitted then tho remaining members of his immediate family aro held and punished in liou of the real culprit. This may seem a strange way of at tracting the real criminal back to the scene of his crime, but it has proved quite successful, because it appeals to tho religious side of tho man's super stitious nature. According to their religion the man who forsakes his par ents when in peril will find his soul sailing around through hades without chart or compass for all eternity. In view of this, compliance with the law is very prompt, for John Chinaman docs not caro to take tho desperate chance.

MuiiWll tioTcruinofi Reljig Etu tiUabad (n1 All Is Working AdtnLrwbly -SotLthr rit l'orta of Lairm Blnff OpAtd to Trade The Only Hop of Insurgent Leadrg. WASHINGTON. July 19. The stt. department yesterday received from the Philippine commission an import ant dispatch conveying these facts: By the co-operation of the military, municipal governments have been es tablished in seven important towns In the provinces of Manila and Cavlte. These are working admirably and one good effect of them is that consider able numbers of the insurgents are constantly deserting and coming In. some of them with arms. The system will soon be extended to other towns which are asking for it. Continued success In this direction will mean the beginning of the end. The com missioners state that the general situ ation as described in the message of General Otis, June 2(5, except that a number of ports in the southern part of Luzon, in Leyte and other islands to the south have since been opened to trade. Dispatches from Dr. Schur man on his return from his trip through the southern part of the arch ipelago were of the same purport. A disposition to accept American sov ereignty an'd to welcome our troops was everywhere manifested. The report of General Otis of the 26th of June referred to by Commis sioner Denby in the above dispatch stated that as a consequence of the rainy season little Island campaigning was now possible in Luzon. We oc cupy, said General Otis, a large por tion of the Tagalog country. The lines stretch from Imus on the south to San Fernando on the north, nearly sixty miles, and eastward Into the Lasuna province. The Insurgent armies have suffered great losses and are scattered. The only large force which holds together is about 4,000 in Tarlac province and northern Pam panga. There are scattered forces In bands of fifty and 500 In other parts of Luzon, Cavite and Batangas provinces. They could possibly assemble 2,000. They are demoralized from recent de feat. The most of the people are ter rorized by the Insurgent soldiers, but desire peace and American protection. They no longer flee from our troops unless forced by Insurgents, but glad ly welcome them. There has been no recent burning of towns. The popula tion within our lines has become dense, taking up land cultivation chiefly. They are kept out of Manila aa much as possible, as the city popu lation was becoming too great to be cared for. The only hope of the insurgent leaders is in aid from the United States. This In the Influence which enables them to hold out. Much con tention prevails among them and no civil government remains. The trade with ports not in our possession, the former source of insurgent revenues, is now interdicted. A lilg KiiNhifor Sheep Lands. OMAHA, July 19. The business of the Union Pacific land department has been largely increased within a short time past and the principal reason for this augmentation assigned by the officials of the department of the in terior forbidding sheepmen permission to feed their flocks on the Uintah, Wyoming, forest reserve, which, prior to this order, had furnished an abun dance of grazing for the extensive sheep interests in that section of Wyo ming. In order to furnish feed for their flocks now the sheep owners have of necessity been compelled to secure suitable range and the lands; In the region of Summit. Weber, Mor gan and Rich counties, Utah, and Uin tah county, Wyoming, controlled by the Union Pacific land department, have been strictly in demand. As to Peace Negotiations. WASHINGTON, July 19. A cable from Colonel Denby. a member of the Philippine commission, was read at the cabinet meeting yesterday. It showed a fairly satisfactory state of affairs, one of the cabinet officers said, but It did not say that peace negotia tions with Aguinaldo were in prog ress. Secretary Hay also had a cable from Ambassador Choate relative to the boundary line negotiations, but it was not encouraging. Throwing off th Tagal Yoke. MANILA, July 19.
