TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 7. 189!).
Wk await the verdict.
TilK civilized world is watching and
waiting to hear from Nebraska. It is
no wondor if our oars burn.
Whatever the result of today's
election, the campaign next full will
bo a hummer. The atato will bo
spoken from conter to cii-cumforonco
Ohio is another stalo toward which
tho eyos of the world are turned
While tho fusionlsts entertain slight
hopes of victory, tho republicans
claim tho stato by at least 4",000.
The Wook's Review says, in part:
"If every voter of the state of Ne
braska votes his convictions on tho
7th day of November, the returns will
stand as follows:
Judge Reese K9.7:r
Judge Holcomb Ouo.000
"Even .ludge Holcomb will vote for
Judge Reese if he votes his convic
tions."
Congressman - elect Amos T,
Allen will be known all over this
country on account of his being
Thomas B. Reed's successor. He
won't have to make a great speech,
havo a fight or anything else in order
that the people may know who he is
or from whence he has come. His
majority was nearly as large as that
of bis predecessor.
D. Clem Deaver, populist leador,
has como out a strong expanlonist.
He says: "Imperialism is n straw
man, set up by the democratic poli
ticiansthe men who are trying to
make politics out of tho war, out of
duty to country. Jt was the duty of
President McKinley to do just what
he has d6ne ; tho half-baked would
have opposed any doctrine he might
have adopted."
When an individual or party got9
out circulars or dodgers purporting: to
be what some one has said or done, or
to inform the "dear people' of some
great truth or falsohood ju9t discov
ered, you may know the "jig is about
up" with that particular individual or
party. This circular business may bo
all rignt for the urinter, but it usually
proves a boomerang that will defoat
the candidate that resorts to such
methods.
The events of the past fortnight in
South Africa have spoiled the criti
cisms of the democratic faultfinders in
regard to the conduct of the war by
the McKiuley administration. British
losses in Africa in this fortnight have
been as great as the American losses
in Cuba and tho Philipbines in an en
tire year of iighing, and utterly des
troy the opportunity for complaint
which democratic scolds were utilizing
for temporary political effect.
Without question this has been
the cleanest campaign ever waged in
Cass county. The new law prohibit
ing treating: and the wholesale ex
penditure of money has had a wonder
fully salutary influence, and the can
didates on both tickets ware, as a
whole, men of character and ability.
They did not stoop to the practices
ordinarily used in a campaign.
Whethor they assume the duties of a
public official or remain in or retire
to private life, their manhood is still
left, which should mean a thousand
times more than position.

Seattle's public square is to be the

to the steamer and brought to Seattle,
where it will be placed on a pedestal

Manila, Nov. 5.-9 p. ra. This
evening a fleet of transports and gun
boats left Manila for the most import
ant expedition of the autumn cam
paign. Its destination is supposed to
be Dagupan or pome other northern
port. General Wheaton commands,
with a brigade consisting of tho Thir
teenth infantry, tho Thirty-thlru in
fantry, two eruns of tho Sixth artillery
and two Catlings. The transports
Sheridan, Francisco do Reyes and
Aztec carry tho troops, with tho gun
boat Helena os ofcort. A dispatch
boat was sent ahoad to arrange a ren
dezvous with tho United Statos
cruiser Charleston and tho other war
ships that arc patrolling the north
coast of Luzon.
Tho landing will bo mado undor
cover of tho euas of tho Hoot. It is as
sumed hero that tho purpnBo of tho
expodilion is to move down tho Dagu-pan-Manila
railroad toward Tar lac or
to provent Aguinaldo's forces making
another base farther north.
Strongholds of Insurgents.
Dagupan and Apparri are the
strongholds of the insurgents in tho
north, and it is supposed the points
where most of tho filibustering parties
land.
Since tho beginning of the hostili
ties it has been tho unanimous opinion
of military experts here that Dagupan
should bo made a base of operations,
but sufficient troops have heretofore
been lacking. With Generals Whea
ton, MacArthur and Law ton moving
upon Tarlac from tho three directions,
and the mountains homing in the
other side, the insurgent opital will
soon become untenable.
Aguinaldo may attempt to shift his
headquarters to the rich tobacco coun
try at the northern end of the island.
Probably ho may slide around General
Lawion'a front to the southern pro
vinces, but, as MacArthur's aud Law
ton's troops aro spread across tho
country from Angeles to Cabanatuan
it will be difficult for tho insurgents to
escape. Should tho concerted opera
tions succeod, organized in?urroction,
on a large scale, should bo at an end
early next spring, although guerilla
warfare is likely to continue for a long
time. No one anticipates that tho in
surgents will make many hard battles.
The problem is to move the troops
about tho country to maintain trans
portation and to hold tho territory
gained. Tho moral effect of the ar
rival of a large American army is cal
culated upon to sap Aguinaldo's
strength by desertions and through
the loss of hope among the supporters
or the revolutionary movement.
Many Insurgents Killed.
Nov. G. 10:lo a. m. Two columns
of General MacArthur's division yes
terday took Magalang, about six miles
northeast of Angeles. Colonel Smith,
with two battalions of tho Seventeenth
infantry, two guns of the First artil
lery and a body of engineers advanced
from Angoles. Major O'llrien with a
battalion of the Seventeenth and two
troops of tho Fourth cavalry, moved
from Calulut.
Colonel Smith killed eleven insur
gents, wounded 12S and captured fifty,
as well as taking a lot of insurgent
transportation.
Major O'Brien killed forty-nine in
sureent?, wounded many and took
twenty-eight prisoners.
The Americans had eleven men
woundod.
Missouri Miners Open Fire.
Macon, Mo., Nov. 5. In spite of
the vigilance of Superintendent Vail,
a body of negroes got cut of the stock
ade at mine No. CI this morning and
again started toward town. On arriv
ing at mine No. 7 they stationed them
selves in a railroad cut and began fir
ing Into houses over the hill. David
Gamble's residence was riddled with
buliets and the family had to lay flat
on the floor to escape the fusillade.
O. L. Trollard's house was also at
tacked in similar manner and several
others had to evacuate their homes.
Sheriff Clenn came home last night
and the negroes took advantage of his
abseuce to resume their outrages. He
returned to Bevier today and imme
diately went to mine No. Gl and will
endeavor to locate the guilty parties
and arrest them.
This second uprising has thoroughly
aroused the people of Bevier and they
are determined it shall be the last.
Several parties came to Macon today
ia quest of rifles and ammunition and
a request was made to Prof. Clenden
nin for the guns of the military acad
emy, but they had no cartridges for
them. A show of force is necessary
before the negroes will consent to bo
disarmed and peace is not expected
until this is accomplished. I here is
no lack of volunteers to assist the
sheriff, and wholesale arrests aro
looked for tonight.

Soldier Hue Kor Ilounty.
CHICAGO, Nov, 5. Moro than 300
former members of tho Sacond and
Third Mississippi volunteers, who en
listed from Chicago, held a meoting
today In the Unity building. A law
firm of this city claims to have dis
covered an old statute of Mississippi
which grants a boutity of $00 to every
soldier who recruits in its regiments
and who ia not a rosldent of the state.
Accordingly tho volunteers; have or
ganized for the purpose of instituting
proceedings against the state for the
payment of tho money alleged to bo
duo them. It is said that 700 Chi-
cagoans volunteered to fill up Missis
sippi s quota, and were in service
from July, 1898, to April, 1809. Col
onel J. F. Powers, secretary of the
state of Mississippi, has declared in a
letter to tho attorneys who aro hand
ling the case that the claims aro un
founded and will not bo paid. As eoon
as the nocossarj' papers can bo pre
pared, a formal demand wilt bo made
and if that Is not granted, suit will b
brought.

MOTOR MAN'S LUNG.
Ton
Will
Get It If You
Sit on the
Front Seat.
The newest disease on the tapis Is
motorman's lung, which does not con
fine itself to motormen exclusively,
says the Philadelphia Record. All
those girls who are so fond of sitting
on the front benches of trolley cars,
where the wind blows like a torrent
through their hair, are in danger of
catching the disease. It is defined as
a weakening, or degeneration, of the
lung tissues. Breathing is so easy on
a rushing trolley, the wind is so strong,
and pure and cool, that the lung mus
cles have practically no work to do,
and at once, like all unused things,
they shrink. Nothing is more pitiable
to see than a crowd of motormen sit
ting about the car stables, trying to
breathe while stationary. There is bo
little air then that their flaccid lung
tissues have a hard time of it, and the
men pant, their tongues hang out, and
a look of patient suffering is in their
eyes. On cool, windy days these symp
toms are less evident, but on very
warm days are so exaggerated as to
suggest the presence of asthma. In the
treatment of motorman's lung drugs
are of no value. Lung exercise is the
only remedy, and the patient is advised
to breathe as little and lightly as pos
sible while on the trolley platform, and
as much and as deeply as he can at
other times. The disease takes a mild
er form in the passenger's .case, and
an abstinence from trolley rides will
cure it in a week; but the motorman
can never be promised an absolute
cure.

Incredible Ignorance.
A rather incredible ignorance is at
tributed to the natives of Damai aland.
It is said that when the police au
thorities ordered the registration of all
rifles in possession of natives Lieut.
Eggers, of the police, prevented an up
rising by telling them the guns were
simply to be vaccinated, a word the
natives were familiar with through J
the efficacy of vaccination in the great
cattle plague.
GLEANINGS.
THE November Century is full of
good things. Perhaps the begin
ning of .John Morley'n "Ifo of Oliver
Cromwell," ono of tho foutnrcs prom
ised for tho coming season, will provo
tho attraction of this number. Mr.
Morley is seldom unfair in hi state
ments, though ho may be occasionally
rather unsympathetic, and the sub
stance of bis writings is such aa to im
ply much reading and active thought.
In the introductory we catch the
keynote of the author's attitude toward
that "bold figure that put a king to
death and flung parliaments out of
doors at will."
He writes: "It is hard to deny that
wherever force w.s useless Cromwell
failed.or that his example would often
lead in what modern opinion firmly
judges to be false directions, or that it
is in Milton and Bunyan rather than
in Cromwell that we seek what was
deepest, loftiest and most abiding in
Puritanism; we look to its apostles
rather than its soldier. Yet Oliver's
largeness of aim; his freedom of spirit
and that energy that comes of a free
spirit; the presence of a burning light
in his mind, though the light to our
later times may havo grown dim; h's
good faith, his valor, his constancy,
havo t. tamped his name, in spite of
somo exasperated acts that it is pure
sophistry to justify, upon tho imagina
tion of men over all the vast area of
tho civilized world where the English
tongue prevails."
Mark Twain, the one and only Mark,
has an article also in this magazine
describing his first appearance in I860
"as a literary person."
"I propared ray contribution and
then looked around for the beet mag
azine to go up to glory in. I selected
the most important one in New York.
The contribution was accepted. I
signed it 'Mark Twain,' for that name
had some currency on the Pacific
coast, and it was my idea to spread it
all over the world, now at this ono
jump.
"Tho article appeared in the Dacem
bor number- for that one would con
tain the year's lift of contributors, my
name would bo in it, and I should be
famous and could give tho banquet 1
was meditating.
"I did not givo the banquet. I had
not written tho 'Mark Twain' dis
tinctly; it was a fresh name to eastern
printers, aud thoy put it 'Mike Swain'
or 'Mac Swain' I do not remember
which. At any rate I was not cele
brated, and I did not give the barqueL
I wo9 a literary person but thai was
all a buried one; buriod alive."
4-
But if one gleans from the Century
field he is pretty sure to be enticed
into an adjoining field, the Harper's
Here we find a most interesting article
written by Mr. Charles M. Pepper on
"Cuba la Suspension." 11 one roads
this article thoy arc pretty sure to
muke a note of the fact that this man
is about to publish a book entitled
"Tomorrow In Cuba."
Lolia Herbert's articlo gives us a
glimpse of Washington's homes and
households. She haB the following
little nnecdote which wo do not re
member to have seen before:
"When General St. Clair, sent out
against the Indians in the west, had
allowed the American army to fall
victim to the identical stratagem
an ambuBh against which Washing
ton had earnestly, insistently and re
peatedly forewarned him his rage was
ungovernable. Poor Mr. Lear, only
witness to the violent outbreak, was
terrified into silence as Washington,
alternately pacing the floor and seat
ing himself on the sofa, gave vent to a
torrent of abuse and frightful accusa
tion of St Clair. After a time Wash
ington recollected and collected him
self afhamed. 'This must not go be
yond this room' he said. 'It is hard
to keep a great man's secrets.'"
In the Nineteenth Cantury for Oc
tober the authoress, Mrs. Humphry
Ward, has a paper or letter which is
attracting not a little notice, and in
some instances severe criticism. In
this article Mrs. Ward eays: "To be a
Christian" ia what?
"To be a Christian is to adopt at
once Christ's dpctrine of God and his
view of the kind and nature of that
life which leads us to and reconciles
us with God. It is also to feel Christ
himself as a reconciler and revealer,
and the influence of his life, histor
ically working in us as a boiling and
impelling force. It is to stand for
Christ against the selfish aud material
elements of the world. It is to be
tenderly and humbly eager to obey
the few and simple directions that he
aid down as to the outward rites of his
society, or ecciesic to bring our chil
children to baptism unto G d, in the
name of the Lord Jesus to partake of
His memorial feast as tho symbol and
food of our Mystical union with Him,
with the brethren and with God. It
s so to live this life in his love and
service, and in the faith which flows
from his heart into ours, and when
death comes our dearest hope may be
within the general tremulous, yot
inextinguishable hope of humanity
that beyond the darkness and storm
of the great change we shall in some
way, inconceivable to human imagina
tion, find our Master and yield our
humble account to him, and know Him
at last more truly even than Mary or
Peter or John knew Him on earth, in
tho presence and the light of God."
