I have thought for sowo time that I should enjoy the work, but the amount of real satisfacllon roalizod will de pend on the success attainod. Newspapers usually pet all the en couragement and hmnciai support they deserve, and I have no doubt but that The News will receive in the future all the assistance it merits. After the first of January it will re ceive mv undivided aiienuou. During the six years which 1 have held oflice in this county the people, regardless of political affillat'on, have j given mo hearty support in ray work and have been uniformly kind and courteous. It is my wish that the past pleasant relations may continue, and that we may be mutually help ful. Soliciting your hearty support and co-operatiou and trusting you will be as charitable in this, ray first attempt in journalism, as you were during my first term cf office, I romain, yours sin- cerelv, Geo kg EL. lAUi.hi.

"Billy" Wheeler will eaten him like ho does horse thieves. Tin: Nkw appreciates the kindly words and good wishes expressed by the Post. It is sincerely hoped that nothing will be said or dono to in any wav disturb the pleasant relations now existing between tho two papers Never. in the history of this coun try, perhaps, have the people paid eo much attention to the candidates for judges federal, state, district and county as they are doing today, and, when you get tho general public thor oughly aroused as to its duly and res sponsibility, there is no hesitancy. AN examination of the list of "dis tinguished statesmen'1 who partici pated in the anti expansion meeting at Chicago show that tho term "ex" attached to the title of a very large majority of tho number, indicating thai they. were as a rule "gentlemen with a grievance." The "antis" are mainly "oxes." "I jKY.an prated about imperialism in this count-y. There in't n tingle imperialist In the whole nation and he knows it. He prated about expnn sion and denounced expansionists. Why, we have been expansionists from the days of the thirteen original colonies." Senator Banna at Marys vllle, O., October 2G When George F. Houseworth touk chargi of tha offic of clerk of the dis trict court ho instituted reforms and adouted rules tht were at "first very unpopular, but his business-like methods, together with the neatness a"d accuracy with which the records have been kept, have made him the most popular official who ever held that o3!ce. The Omaha World-Herald, Mr. Bryan's personal organ, states that the advocates of txpansion say wo need territory to relieve the compact population of the United States and pi o vide for future growth, and in quires, "why choose a tropical climate in which the Anglo-Saxon raeo has never been able to live?" The expan sion proposition, so-called, looks to an Increase of market for our products and closer relation .with territory which produces the things which wo must continually buy. The tropical territory of which it talks, of itoolf offers a market for $100,000,000 of our products annually, and will prove the door through which hundreds of mil lions more will pass to other adjacent markets, while the islands will, at the sarao time, furnish tropical products for which we are now sending over $200,000,000 annually of our good money to other countries for articles which we must consume and which we do not produco at home. Mu. Buy AN remarked In one of bis recent speeches that "three years have justified the assertions made by the democratic party in 1896." Mr. Bryan seems to have forgotten the fHCt that in spite of the assertions of the domocratle parly in 1890, the money in circulation in the Unitec. States has meantime increased from $1,506,000,000 to nearly $2,000,000,000; the per capita of money in circulation from $21. IS to nearly $26; the gold in circulation from $464,000,000 to about $750,000,000: tho exports of manufac tures from $22S,OO0,00O to 138,000,009 a year, and the total exports from $8S2.0O0.00O to $L227,0O0.0CO per an num. If this justiOes democratic pre dictions of 1806 tho country will listen with equanimity to more of the same sort in 1000. Tun Colorado 6ilver republicans who deserted the partv in 1S96 nave con cluded that after all it is moving along the right Hoe and ought to bo sup ported. In a platform adopted in Den ver a few days ago, they demanded "the vigorous and speedy prosecution and termination of the war in tho Philippine islaads, and the earliest establishment and recognition of na tional authority there to tho end that the best possible government may bo established in thoso Islands," while similar expressions, coming from sil ver democrats through the south, show that the attempts to reorganize the democratic party on anti-expanpion lines cannot be successful. James Ror.ERTsoN is a sura ivinnor. If you can find a person in the county of any political faith who has had business in the ofttco and who has rot secured fair treatment, The News wuuld like to boar the name of ouch individual If wc have the right kind of a man, why not keep him? Nearly every citiZ3n in tho county has busi ness with tho county clerk, and they want a man who is uniformly courteous. and is strictly honest and husinoes- like in his private and official acts "Jim" is all right nnd tho people know it. For a number of years both tho s cial and political conditions of this county havo been Beriously disturbed on account of matters pertaining l.irrciv to our district court. Numer ous charges and counter charges have been made made by democrats, popu lists and republicans. Why not bury tho past, and, so far as possible, forget it. Lot us e'ean off tho slato and be crin over. We can do thin bv votinr for Pay I .lessen. In MANY respects tho office of pro bate judgo is the most important posi tion in this or any other county, and the people are practically a unit in tho opinion that it should be filled by a lawyer of ability and ex periencc. If tho proper consideration is given to this niattpr and tho ability and gen eral make-up of the two candidates carefully compared, J. E. Douglass' majority will not be less than one thou.-nnd. In ability Judge Reose Is head and shoulders above ex-Governor Hoi comb. They do not trot in the same class. People who vote for tho ex governor will do so because he ia on their ticket or because a certain ambi tious democrat wants him to do so. Judge Itecso is an eminent j irist of dignity, integrity and true worth, while bis opponent i3 a lawyer of but ordinary ability and a politician. The candidates for tho oflice of county treasurer are two of the most honest and highly respected citizens of Cass county. One should blush to 6ay aught against the personal char acter of either. Each is an honor to his particular party. But that Mr. Barton's fitness for pei forming tho duties of the office surpasses thut of his worthy opponent cannot be ques tioned. P.ri. Jessen'S majority in the dis trict is variously estimated at from 100 to 800. The average between these two extremes (450) would not be so bad. The teems "pull," "stand in," "benefleiary," etc., aie not U3ed when discussing bis candid c v. Tne Appetite of a 6oat Is envied by all poor dyspeptics whose stomach and liver are out of order.

Davis, republio-tn candidate for county commissioner, for over twenty years, living within less than two miles of his home the major part of that time, and in all these years has never beard his honesty questioned. The business transaction in which be was charged with taking advantage of the man with whom he dealt has been carefully investigated . by leading- cit izens of Xehwka and otbers,and tbey have brought In a verdict of not OCILTY. Mr. Davis resides two miles from Weeping Water, but is lnthe school district in which the city is located . As president of the board of education he has made a record for himself a9 being, careful and conscientious in the performance of his duties, al ways keeping in mind the" beat In terests of tho general public. He is serving cither his eocond or third torm,and no complaint has been heard as to the manner in which he, with his associates, has handled " public funds or otherwise served the district. He is conservative and a man of most excellent business judgment. You will agrco with THE NEWS that any man who has served the p-opte as long and as satisfactorily as Mr. Davis has done, and has been willing to make the necessary sacrifice of time and energy without a money and without price. Is worthy the support he asks at this time. - If you can accept tho above please voto for John Davis for commissioner. Jlst listen! The Journal says: "Never was a more competent man nominated for county judge in Cass county than Captain Oscar H. Allen " The democratic candldato for district judge ought to make tho editors of that paper take it back or else state that they wore just joking. Mr. Allen will have to burn midnight oil for some time yet before he can get a di ploma from tho law school of our uni versity. His qualifications are not to ba compared for one minute with those of J. E. Douglass, who has had ten years' actual practice in the courts of this oounty and state. Tho editor of TnE News has been Intimately ac quainted with Mr. Douglass for. more than ten years, and can vouch for him as a gentleman of ability and integrity, and is anything on earth but narrow and prejudiced. R. A. Case is making a clean, quiet campaign and may surprise a few people next Tuesday. His friends seem confident thtthe will be success ful in his efforts to secure one of the most important offices in the gift of tho people.

For these a.339 eeaeeras alone it meaas that tha 64,000 hands who were out of esaploymeat ia IMS were all employed at good wages ia 1898.
