FRIDAY, MAY 18, 1900.
FARMERS report excellent prospects
for good crops.
Louisville has re-elected her pres
ent corps of teachers and raised the
salary of the principal $5 per month.
It has been aptly said that the dif
ference between the democratic and
the republican party is, that the for
mer promises amd the latter perform
Governor Poynter has an advan
tage over any other citizen of the
state. He says that if he is impris
oned for contempt of court he will par
don himself.
The social democrats are divided on
the question of the "referendum," on
account of which Harriman, their can
didate for vice president, may pu'l off
the ticket. Mr. Debs will have to look
for another running mate.
Admiral, and Mr. Dewey were
given a grand reception in Kooxville,
Tenn., yesterday. Today they will
visit Low's Ferry, the birthplace of
Admiral Farraeut. under whom the
admiral served during the civil war.
The Southern democracy disfran
chises the negro and taxes them with
out giving them representation and
yet holds up its hands in holy horror
because they fear the republicans are
going to oppress the natives of Porto
Rico and the Philippines.
Dr. B. F. Lano evidently intends
to make ' Governor Poynter all the
trouble he can. Since handing the
governor his resignation he has
changed his mind and desires to hold
the fort. He will doubtless have e
difficult task before him, as the execu
tlve is determined to get him out. If he
has to call out the state militia.
It is reported that Senator Butler
will resign his position as chairman of
the national populist committee and
recommend J. H. Edmisten of this
state for the place. Mr. Edmisten
failed to get votes enough at the Sioux
Falls convention to elect him to the
coveted position and why his success
ful rival should "be so generous ali at
once is not apparent.
Stockmen in the western part of
the state held a convention recently
and took occasion to roast Governor
Poynter for pardoning so many cattle
thieves. . Citizens of Cass county feel
that to pardon the cold-blooded mur
derer of one of its best citizens is so
much ' worse than pardoning a thief
that the cattle men have comparatively
little of which to complain.
s
When you find a republican that
is not for the re-election of Presiden
McKinley, please let us know. iSot
withstanding the enormous amount of
abuse heaped upon him by the fusion
politicians, he has preserved a digni
fled silence, successfully carried on th
war and at the same time carefully
guarded the industrial and commercial
interests of the country. He deserves
the strongest kind of an indorsement
The topic of conversation today has
been the march which Senator Clark
of Montana took on his enemies by re
signing his position in the United
States senate just as he was about to
be formally ousted. Said resignation
was handed to Montana's acting gover
nor (Spriggs) in the absence of Gover
nor Smith of that state. Spriggs at
once appointed Mr. Clark to succeed
himself and it is thought bo will be
able to hold his seat until the legisla
ture again assembles.
Superintendent B. F. Lano of
the Institute for the Feeble-minded at
Beatrice continues to embarrass Gov
ernor Poynter by refusing to turn
things over to Dr. Doaring. The gov
ernor probably did such a good job of
whitewashing that the doctor con
cluded he was a fairly good fellow after
all, and to turn him out in' the cold
would be very ungrateful, if not alto
gether unjust A temporary injunc
tion against Governor Poynter and
Dr. Dearing has been granted.-
WHEN William J. Bryan's train the
other day stopped at Gallup, N. M.,
- he stepped out on the back platform
' and made one of his characteristic
speeches, says the New York Tribune,
u the people applauded, and when the
'.noise subsided the mayor of the town
climbed up to the speaker and pre
sented to him a large Navajo blanket
neatly done up in a parcel, saying that
it was the work of an Indian squaw of
the ciiy who admired Mr. Bryan.
The train drew out and Mr. Bryan
nepoBitea nis gut upon a seat, going
into a smoking room. On returning
he spread out his present for a better
view, ana as be aid so a piece of paper
pinned on the inside came in view.
This was what he read: "My Dear
Mr. Bryan: Under the republican
administration the wool in this blan
' ket sells for 22 cents a pound. Under
the democratic administration it sold
for 6 cents. Please leu mat 10 your
constituents.
THE argument used to keep many
fusionists in line for Bryan is that since
the senate will be republican for sev
eral jpars yet "he can do no particular
harm;" that sound money legislation
having been enacted, there is no
danger of haviDg a debased currency
so long as we have a republican sen
ate. We should figure on the amount
of good a president can do rather than
on the amount of barm he cannot do.
The Fremont Tribune doesn't m da
it far in the following: "If the demo
crats had the least idea that McKinley
would take any action to help the
Boers, they would be urging him to
keep his hands off. In other words,
there is no sincerity in the cry that
they are making. They are merely
triving for a little sorely-needed cam
paign thunder."
George W. Berge of Lincoln h:ts
been unanimously indorsed by the fu
sionists of Lancaster county for cou-
gress. Mr. iierge Is going to give our
townsman, Matthew Gering, a tussle
for the nomination. E. J. Durkett,
however, can easily walk off with
either one of them.
KANSAS republicans have renomi
nated W. E. Stanley for governor, lhe
convention passed resolution? indors-
ng, unqualifiedly, Proeident McKinley
and hfs administration. Everything
points to another republican victory in
Kansas next fall.
Editor Dunroy no doubt noticed
on his return today tho marked im
provement in the Journal, as edited
by its business manager on tho Shel
don plan during his absence.
Governor Poynter seems to think
he can get rid of Dr. Lang without
much trouble. The wily little doctor
is a nuisance to the governor.
Admiral Dewey and wife are again
in Washington. It begins to look as
though the admiral' would have to run
independent, if at all.
Senator Butler has denied the
report that he had resigned as chair
man of the populist national commit
tee.
Edward Rosewater has been hon
ored by being elected one of the direc
tors of the Associated Press associa
tion.
Carter Harrison says he will not
accept the democratic nomination for
governor. Wise man. '
AN EXCHANGE says it is a paradox
to think of asking country folks to vote
for Towne.
INFORMATION AND OPINION.
An odd and somewhat ghastly event
of late was the seizure of a cemetery
in Peansyvania by the sheriff under
foreclosure proceedings. In this case
the mortgage was literally a death
grip.
Governor Robert B. Smith of Mon
tana has, like Senator Clark, made
fortune in mining. He is popular in
the mining district), the men re
garding him almost as one of them
selves, but respecting him none the
less.
If the fusionifets hope to stand any
chance whatever of electing a governor
they will have to make arrangements
early in the campaign to head their
ticket with some man besides Poynter
Poynter is altogether too small to run
against Dietrich. Judge Westover
is
big enough to take care of the H-st
ings man, but have the fusionists got
the nerve to cut loose from tho little
2x4 clique at the state house to com
mit such a fortunate, blunder as to
nominate a big, clean and able man
like Westover? We hope so. Kear
ney Democrat.
An instructive insight into the man
ner in which the British are treating
the Dutch in Cape Colony is given by
a correspondent of the Chicago llec
ord: Writing from Capetown, he
says: "A discussion is proceeding in
the colonial press as to what should be
done with the Dutch colonists who
have joined the republicans. O.ie sug
gestion is that they should be inden
tured that is to say, enslaved to
their British fellow-farmers. Other
suggestions are that they should be
transported as slave laborers to Au9
tralasia and Canada and that they
should be branded with a hot iron
Confiscation of their farms is in all
cases assumed as a matter of courso
though this would plunge into beg
gary their innocent wives and families
Dutch colonists are being thrown into
jail by dozens and their cattle declared
confiscated and sold, although such
confiscation is in absolute defianoe of
the colonial law. Worst of all, it has
been assigned to the chairman and sec
rotary of the South African league to
go-about the border and arrest Dutch
men. These two men, one of whom
contested a border constituency at tt
last election as a Khodesite and was
beaten, have taken service with the
imperial government for the time be
tng, put oi courso the farmers view
them not as General Brabant and Cap
tain Crewe, the imperial officers, but
as Brabant and Crewe, the chairman
and secretary of the political associa
tion which Dutch South Africa believes
to have caused the war. Thus w
give to the proceedings the worst as
pect of a civil war. During the last
few weeks Dutch churches to the num
ber of over half a dozen have been
forced by drunken mobs and the bell
rung in honor of the relief of Lady
smith and Kimberley. At Spearman
camp, in Natal, a church, of which
the pastor is the nephew and name
same of the saintly Andrew Murray,
has been used as a stable, the com
munion service stolen and the big
bible defaced with the words 'God
cu -be the Dutch.'"
A little incident at the banquet of
the homeopathic physicians night be
fore lst gave th6 friends of C H.
Dietrich a great deal of satisfaction.
Abjut seventy-five doctors were in at
tendance, representing all political
parties as well as all portions of the
state. During the period of good feel
ing that marked the speechmaking.
Dr. A. It. Van Sickle of Hastings took
occasion to say a good word for hi9
friend and neighbor, C. II. Dietrich,
the next governor of Nebraska, In
stantly the entire company broke out
into heartfelt applause, which was re
peated when Dr. W. 11. Hancliett of
Omaha seconded everything that his
colleague had said about the good
ualities of the republican candidate.
The reception given to Mr. Dietrich's
ame convinced his Menus that his
personal popularity has not been over
estimated. State Journal.

District Judge Jnurn Order the Arrest
of Henty W. Dtwcy.
The trial of a very interesting di-
vorse case has jest been tlmsheu in
Judge Jessen's court at Nebraska
Cityi It is entitled Henry W. Dew?y
vs. Mr?. Belle Dewey, his wife. The
following in regard to the case is tak
en from the Nebraska Citv News:
'The case had been tried to the
court and Judge Jessen in rendering
his decision last evening spoke very
plainly and snid just what he thought,
regardless of how hard it hit those
who were interested in the trial of the
case, lie said tnat trio plaintiff ha a
boen guilty of most flagrant perjury
and would recommend that the county
attorney file a complaint against him
at once. He said that thoro had been
more perjury committed there in a
shorter period than ho had heard in
some time.
"The Judge gave the wife a separa
tion as prayed for in her petition aad
then he gave her $1,000 in alimony
and $200 attorney fees. This is the
bitterest contested divorse suit that
has boen tried in the district court in
this county in jears. The litigants
are not residents of this city, save fo:

had been married, according to the
testimony, for four or five years before
the husband told his mother, who, it
seems, was bitterly opposed to his
marriage and, from her evidence, was
the real cuseof the son wanting to
leave the wife. All during the trial a
bright little girl ran about the court
room and seemed to make friends
with all the people therein but the
father and his parents. It seemed to
keep away fjom them at all times.
The man denied that it was his child,
while the wife offered t prove by
Oi tr slack oi amdavits that he was
present at its birth and gave the child
its name and paid alt of the expense
incident lo her illness. To every one
who heard the evidence in tho case
the sympathy was with tho wife, and
they heartily endorsed every word
that Judge Jessen uttered in his ar
raignment of the plaintiff for the way
he had perjured himself and seeming
ly caused others to do the same in his
behalf.
"County Attorney W. W. Wilson
last evening issued a warrant for tho
arrest of tho plaintiff, but when tho
sheriff wont lo look for his man it was
found that he had tlown. He evident
ly took the cue given in the court s
lecture and left for greener fields, for
at 0 o'clock last evening ho could not
be found. Just how he got out of the
city no one seems to know."

CLASH HAS BEEN AVERTED.
Governor Poynter Talks to Judge Stall
Over the Telephone.
Governor Poynter is restins easier
today, says the Lincoln News. The
threatened clash between his authori
ty and that of the judiciary is'drifting
off into the mistry future, and bids
fair never to develop.
This morning the governor talked
over the telephone with Judge Stull,
who is at Beatrice holding court. The
judge assured the governor that he
knew nothing of Dr. Lang's resigna
tion until he read a copy of it in the
News. He had no idea that such a
document was in existence when ho is
sued his temporary injunction. J
"bena your representatives down,"
he said, "and I will give them an im
mediate hearing, i assure you my
court will not be made a tool for
trickery."
Dr. Dearing, the new appointee,
Dave McEntee, recorder in the gover
nor's office, and Clerk Stewart, from
the Lincoln asylum for tho insane, left
for the scene of trouble this morning.
They will go before Judge Stull and
ask that the injunction bo dissolved,
and from tho intimations given Gov
ernor Poynter, it is quite "probable
that their prayer will be granted.
By his own resignation, accepted by
the governor, Dr. Lang became a pri
vate citizon yesterday, May 15. He is
holdiug the superintendence- without
oven color of authority, says tho gov
ernor, and for that reason ho thinks
Judge Stuil will bold that Lang has
absolutely no right to intorfero with
Dr. Dearing in his exercise of duty in
accordance with his appointment.
Reports from Beatrice indicates that
the little doctor is growing desperate
in his effort to hang onto the position
he has enjoyed for something over a
year. McEntee and Stewart went
down there yestorday. Immediately
on their arrival they called on Dr.
Lang. They didn't take the trouble
to send up their cards in advance.
Their reception was somewhat Ice
landic, for tho doctor telephoned for
tho sheriff who responded immediate
ly. He landed on the two gentlemen
from Liincoln with all tho I rce of a
representntivo of the court, and com
manded them to refrain from interfer
ing in any manner with Dr. Lang.
McEntee and Stewart heeded the com
mand and returned to Lincoln on an
evening train.
Ibey were sent hack this morning
by the governor. If Dr. Djering sue
ceeds in getting into office McEntee
and Steward will check over tho ac
counts left by Dr. Lang.
Conditions about tho homo are de
plorable. Nothing has been done by
Dr. Lang towards ploughing and
planting the ground, and it lies there
idle and overgrown with weed-1. Dr,
Uearing will uo what he can to over
come the results of his predecessor's
innoceous demands.

Stumped the School Visitor.
A visitor at a Columbia, Mo., school

"Yes, sir." "Indeed! And what klrl
of a bonnet?" "An imaginary bon
net, sir." The visitor asked no more
questions.

claims. We only say that if taken

We have thousands of testi
monials where people claim they
have been permanently cured of
ihis malady.
