Germany, Ilussia and Franca have come to an understanding in the Chinese affair. The Oregon was not damaged badly She will be patched up and sent b9ck for service at Taku. The forces of the allied powers are ruliot' tho Chinese in the vicinity of Tien-Toia "without their consent." The nation is rejoUdng on account of News received that Unites States Minister Conner was still alive July ISth. You should plan to attend the log rolling to be heid here August 18. It will be a hummer. Your friends will be here expecting to pp.e you. There is said to bo no agreement between the powers as to tho numbor of troops to be sent into China. Each Is sending the number she can spare. The fusionists failed, utterly, in their efforts to induce the mid-rondors to endorse any part of their ticket. They are determined to bo 'true ixp ulists." Senator Hoar, whilo ho has dif fered with President McKinley on some questions, wants it understood that he is a republican, and .not a Bryan man. The fusionists aro fearful of the re sult of placing "populist" on the ballot after the names of tho mid-road candi dates leat some of their number aro thereby mislead. The failure of the demoorats to de nounce the annexation of Hawaii was doubtless due to the fact that the voto of Hawaii alone enabled thc-m to re vive the 1G to 1 corpse. The Bee says the fusion candidate for congress in the First district seems particularly anxious to have his op ponent help him draw a crowd to listen to his exposition of popoeratic vaga ries. Bets of four to one that McKinley will be re-elected president havo al ready been made. A New York re publican, who had $10,000 to wager, at three to one, found no enthusiastic democratic takers. Thousands of Christian Endeav orers united in singing "Cod Save the Queen" as her majesty appeared in the quadrangle of the castlo. She gra ciously acknowledged tho plaudits, bowing and smiling. Congressman FSuuk ett will be stronger in Itichardeon county this year than he was two years ago, so says the Falls City Journal. No one in Cass county has been beard to express a doubt as to his re-election. In THE last six months hogs have ad vanced $3 a head. Apply this to f0, 000.000 hogs, and there is a profit of $150,000,000 for western farmers. This is better than Wall street. It is a ure thing the result of prosperity. A FEW fusion politicians attempted to get in their oar in the Grand Island convention, but some of the mid-road -era got right up in the meeting and pointed the fellows out, whereupon they were asked to take back seats. A Democrat remarked to the writer the other day that one would be sur prised to know of the support the re publicans would get this fall from those who have been voting with the fusionists. This isn't tho year they want a change. IIox. E. M. Pollard of Nehawka, president of the Nebraska republican leagues, thinks this state can be car ried for McKinley. One thing is cer tain, republicans are going to make every possible effort to win and they are indoed very hopeful. The affiliation of Secretary of State Porter with the "true populists" would indicate that they aro to havo a great many join them from the fusion crowd. Mr. Porter is looking ahead a few years and he will probably be a leader among tho mid-roaders. In Colorado four years ago it was worth a business man's commercial neck to openly advocate the election of William McKinley. This year his sanity is suspected if he takes the other side. The people of the Centen nial state are enjoying a high decree of prosperity. Bixby. Judge T. C. Humphrey or Arkan sas, a life long democrat,has announced himself for McKinley and Roosevelt. He has been an ardent supporter of the adminstration since tho breaking out of the Spanish-American war and is with it on the Philippine question. He will cast his lot with the repub licans in the future. DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM ANALYZED. The Kansas City convention declared itself on the trust question, and this plank is a corker declaring in one sentence and contradicting in the next. They declare in favor of certain laws and vote against a bill to provide for a constitutional amendment extending to congress the right to enact such laws. Oldham said in his speech nominat ing Bryan that the young giant of the west bad siezed the mighty octopus and strangled it. But instead the peo ple stood by and witnessed Tammany's huge octopus push out its mighty arms (Crokerand Van Wyck) and effectually crush the cowardly, cowering orator of the west. What a wide chasm be tween their platform and their action on thi9 question. Some of th3 most powerful and mighty trusts known to this or any other land wero conceived and given birth, tenderly cared for and reared to giant strength under democratic ad ministration. Thus was the seed sown and germinated in tho virgin poil or America. Tho democratic record on the trust question is as broad as the mighty reach of the Standard Oil com pany, and as clear as Van Wyck's ice crystals. The Standard Oil company, the American Sugar lletining com pany (sugar trust,) the whisky trust and tho great railway combine are some of tho terrible progeny of dem ocracy, having their birth almost con temporaneous with Bryan's congres sional record, and 3et not a word from his lips was uttered to strangle these giant concerns. The Bryan boodle fund will not be light with contributions coming from John D. llockefeller, Henry O. Have meyer, Andrew Carnegie and Senator Clark, and with Van Wyck and Boss Croker to strengthen the contribution in New York the people can appre ciate the etering out of the demo cratic wind blow at trust?. The Kansas City convention con demns the Bingloy tariff law. It pro poses the repeal of the Bingley tariff law and thereby to discharge 1,000,000 workingmen. What nerve, what ty ranny Mr. Bryan is ready to impose. Workmen, think of it! Your vote cast for Mr. Bryan is a solemn pledge to your discharge, your less of employ ment. You havo not the word of the republicans, but the solemn pledge of the democratic platform, that the mills and factories of this country must close, and you must take the consequences; you must lose j'our job and go hungry to gratify tho greed of democratic politicians. Workingmen, you have not only the pledge of the democratic platform, but tho pledge of their past history. Will you do it? How dare Mr. Bryan look a working man in the face and ask his vole? Not only do they pledge themselves to cut your opportunity of employment and your wages, but ihiy further pledge themselves to pay you your hard earned shekels in dishonest money. Not only is tbis the pledge of the dem ocratic party, but it is the pet sehenio of their bos, their dictator, Mr. Bryan. Workingmen, do you want it? Will you vote for it? Workingmen, do you want the re-enactment of the Wilson tariff law, which brought such dire distress into your camp during Cleve land's administration? If so, you havo the pledge of the Kansas City conven tion that your vote cast for Bryan will givo it to you. Do you want it? No work or low wiges and dishonest money is the democratic policy, its ret forth in their platform. Beware, my friend, beware! Bj not deceived by their 1'Ogy cry of "im perialism." AMKKIt t.N "rOLICV IN CHINA. ' As a result of recent cabinet meet ings, the policy of the United States in the great world crisis in China was fully decided upon. It is hummed up in the following: 1. The United States will under no circumstances join in the partition of China among tho powers. 2. Tho United States will use all its influence, to tho utmost extent, short of war with European nations, to pre vent tho dismemberment of tho Chi nese empire. 3. The United States proposes to havo a voice in the settlement of the Chinese trouble and its voice will ever be raised against spoliation and in fa vor of preservation of China's terii torial and governmental entity, along tho lines-set forth in Secretary Hay's note to tho powors, dated July 3. 4. The United States will not de clare war upon China on the present showing of facts, no matter whit the other powers may do. 5. Tho United Slates, acting inde pendently and for ifself, will co-operate with the other powors in restoring ordor in China, in punishing all of ficials, high or low, found guilty of crimes against human life, in sotting up a stable government that may give guarantee! f security of life and prop ertv and freedom of trade. THE Denver Republican, the leading newspaper in Colorado, supported Bryan in 1S96. Please noto what it says now: "So far as we are able to learn after careful inquiry in many quarters not one 6ilver republican in a hundred in Colorado is willing to ac cept either tho ticket or the platform adopted at Kansas City. Nobody need le surprised to see Colorado (jive a majority for McKinley." The Denver Times has also swung from Bryan to McKinley. In two years Colorado's production of gold and silver has in creased 33 per cent. The production of silver has been about the same while that of gold has greatly in creased. Hon. E. W YMAN, a former staunch fusionist and party leader of Buffalo county and a member of the last legis lature, has announced that he cannot longer support fusionism as it exists in Nebraska today. He says voters must bo either democrats or republicans, and that as for him he is no democrat. TlIE Beatrice Express says: Many of the most prominent democrats in the country have announced that they will vote for McKinley, and give their reasons. The curreut issue of the Conservative gives a long list of their names. There are many democrats who believe in sound money; there are man3' who believe in carrying the flag to other lands, and keeping it there; there are many who are opposed to the hurrah methods of the democracy under Bryan, and there are hundreds who see tho country prosperous and want to let well enouerh alone. Such people will all voto against Bryan. The Louisvillo Courier says: A democratic farmer said tho other day "Times aro pood enough for mo, I can afford to pay moro for what I buy and have money left. I havo sold corn at 30 cents and hogs at $-5 and whilo I have been a democrat all 1113' life I know when times aro good and expect to vote to keep them that way. Mr Bryan, I think, was mistaken about what he told us four years ago. never voted a republican ticket in my life, but I will voto it this year. I don't care for a change. William W Uockiull is to be son to China as a special agent toadviso the president and the departments of state, war and navy. There is said to bo no better qualified man in America for this most important and difficult taek, he having spent years as a student, explorer and traveler in tho far east, especially in the Chinese em pire, lie has won world-wide fame by his works on China and tho Chinese. A FARMER who lives six miles south of Plattsmouth and who has b. on a life long democrat, was talking with a friend tho other day in regard to the presidential candidates. Gazing over his vast fields of grain with a look of admiration, ho remarked, in a confi dential manner: "Say, I hope Bryan don't get there for foar these good and prosperous times will change." It is safe to say tho republicans c 111 depend upon this man to help them elect Mc Kinley. INFORMATION AMI OPINION. Now that Dunroy has severed his connection with the Piattsmouth Jour nal, we may look for some real sound democratic logic in tho editorial col umns of that pn per. Tho accusations of The News and Post that Mr. Groves, the present editor, is not a democrat, are preposterously prepos terous. Of course he is a democrat, and has been a democrat for for ever so long ; at least since he took ehprge of the Journal. Louisvillo Courier. Blod'mfontoin, which under British rule, after reorganization is completed, will bo the capital city of all the South A'riean state-, may he waited on by high municipal and historic destinies At pte-ent it is rather a -email town. but larger than Washington or Mel bourne was a century ago, and is hand somely and 'healthfully situated.

ROOSEVELT COMING Iistiiiuislit-l Kou;li liidcr to Visit Nebraska. state Institutions Converted Into Asylums for liroken Ilowti Party Satellites and Incompetent. Omaha, July 23. It ia definitely settled that Theodore Roosevelt will pay Nebraska a visit during the pending campaign. This statement is made on the authority of Chair man Lindsay of the state central com mittec, who says that Governor Roose velt will devote at least a week to the campaign in Nebraska. It will be great treat to tho people of Nebraska to see, not only the next vice president of the United States, but one of the foremost scholars and statesmen of the nation a man of high distinguishment in civil and military life. Tho exact time Governor Roosovelt will be here has not, as yet, been determined. The list of speakers for the campaign will contain among others the names of many noted statesmen and orators, the object being to so present the evidence that the verdict rendered in the high court of public opinion shall be based on an intelligent understanding. It never has been, and is not now, the desire of the Republican party to acquire public stewardship by falso pretenses. Moro than once the Republican party has re sisted supposedly popular vagaries in the face of a popular demand for their adoption, because it was confident that it was right and that the vagaries were not alone wrong, but fraught with great public danger. It is the party that struck tho chains of slavery from the black man when more than half of the nation opposed it, It is the party that disciplined a dia obedient, and rebellious confederacy and established forever the unity of the re public wliile alt tite "world looted on in amazement. It is the party that for 40 years has maintained an industrial policy which distinguishes American labor from that of all the rest of the world, and which has elevated it to a standard unequaled in the history of civilized nations. For 40 years the Republican party has stood guard at the doorway of labor, repuls ing again and again the attacks of Democratic free trade. Defeated in their repeated efforts to bring American labor to a level with the pauper labor of Europe, the fusionists have adopted a new scheme and that is to lnre labor away from its safe moorings through alluring promises contingent upon a change in the monetary system. It isn't free trade now, though the fusionists are jnst as much for free trade now as they ever were, it is free silver. One is fraught with as much distress to the American people as the other. Neither can be adopted with out being . attended by inconceivable disaster. The Republican party believes in a tree people, iree nomes ana tree government it does not believe in free trade or free tilvcr. Expansion. The Republican party believes in ex-. pansiou. it believes in extending tne benefits of free citizenship and self government o every possible clime. It believes in progress in commercial and territorial expansion, to the end that all may be benefited and the world in gen eral brought nnder tho benign influence of Christianity and intelligence. Tho history of the United States ia a history of expansion expansion in ter ritory, as well as in trade, art, science, and literature. Expansion upon any pretext was until recently opposed by the fusionists. They charged that the Republicans were imperialistic when they declared in favor of territorial ex pansion. The' have, in a degree, since changed their orthodoxy. The Demo cratic national convention at Kansas City which handled the expansion question with such passivo delicacy was held in territory acquired by expansion. The site of Kansas City is part of the Louisiana purchase. Nebraska, the home of W. J. Bryan, the Democratic candidate for president, was Spanish territory when Jefferson was made president. Nearly 800 members of the Kansas City eonvention came from ter ritory acquired through expansion. More than 40 of the delegates came from territory annexed in consequence of the war witn Mexico. aiinnesota, .Mon tana, Missouri, Nebraska, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, North and South Dakota, Oklahoma, Wyoming, and part of Colorado, had 180 votes in the convention, and expansion re claimed this territory from Spanish dominion less than 100 years ago. It would appear that the only kind of ex pansion which seems to soar to the apex of fusion estimation and expectancy is pulmonary expansion. Give them this, coupled with nncircumscribod loquac ity, freo from the moral restraint of ethical jurisprudence, and in the fusion way of looking at it, the problem of ex pansion is solved. Forced by public opinion, However, ana oy tne logio oi the situation to acknowledge the wis dom of the Republican policy of expan sion, the fusionists are now for expan sion conditioned on a most incongru ent contingency. In other words, they favor a policy of expansion that would not expand and would benefit all the other great nations of the earth at the expense of the United States. I'liillpiiine Islands. The Pliilippino islands have been added to the territory of the United States as a legacy of conquest. These islands had for two hundred rears been under the sovereignty of Spain and for all of that time had felt and experienced all the iniquities of monarchical rule. When the hand ot president jucis-iniey was raised against Spanish atrocities in Cuba and the Philippines, it was not for the purpose of acquiring new pos- Fessions in the Orient. Naval and mili tary strategy alone directed movement toward the Philippines, and those waters were invaded with no other object in view than the destruction or capture of the Spanish squadron. Not nntil the treaty of ' Paris was entered into did the United States undertake to exercise control over the Philippines. This treaty passed sovereignty over these inlands from Spain to the United States, and it is a forcible reminder to Bryan and those fusionists who are finding fault with the, McKinley ad ministration for attempting to restore law and order in the Philippines, that this very obligation, this verr duty, is ' the result of Senator AllnTa rote aad the personal efforts of W. J. Bryan to have the treaty ratified. Witheut Senator Allen's vote and without the personal efforts of W. J. Bryan the treaty could not and would not have been ratified, and the Philippine isl ands would not have passed to the sovereignty of the United States. After being largely responsible for the acquisition of the Philippines, Bryan and the fusionists have adopted a plat form of repudiation and they hold up their hands in abject . horror at the spectacle of an honest, commendable and patriotic effort on the part of the president to suppress domestic lawless ness and rapine in the islands. Like the copper-heads of 1861 they are cas tigating the. McKinley administration for exacting obedience to the well es tablished rules and ethics of popular government and at the same time are encouraging insurrection by seditious utterances secreted in expressions of sympathy for a people bearing arms against the United States. It is a prerequisite to popular govern ment that the governing power shall it self be capable of self government. So soon as the Filipinos shall demonstrate their ability to maintain a government analogous to a republio just so soon will the Republican party through its au thorized representatives encourage that undertaking. Of Commercial Importance. The importance of the United States retaining the Philippines, from a com mercial standpoint, is not to be dis counted. It is an important link in the policy of commercial expansion. Par ticularly is this true when considered in connection with American trade in China. It is only recently, and it is due to the wise statesmanship of Mc Kinley, that American products have found their way to China in any mater ial quantity. The "open door" policy recently promulgated opens up to the farmers and producers of the United States a market, the consuming capa city of which challenges computation. China has an area of more than one- twelfth of the globe and a . population variously estimated at between 300,000, 000 and 450,000.000. Her export and import trade reaches enormous propor tions and it will require time and en ergy alone for the United States to de velop an enormous trade in that country and with these people. It is a mild assertion to state that China alone can consume every bushel ox surplus farm products in the United States. The farmers of Nebraska, as well as the farmers of other agricultural states, should, therefore, in considering the policy of this government toward the Philippines consider the importance of a commercial footing in China, an es sential of which is control of the islands. This is not imperialism, but commer cialism; is not militarism, but far-reaching, far-seeing, intrinsic statesman ship. State Issues. Important as are the national issues of scarcely less importance to the people of Nebraska are the state issues. It is no secret that under the Poynter ad ministration widespread corruption has been practiced, to say nothing of the evil effect of ignorance and incompe tency. Out of the many state institutions there is scarcely one whose manage ment is not contaminated and tainted by fraud, corruption and spoliation. The state has been swindled out of thousands of dollars, and that, too, by the representatives of the very party that promised the people of Nebraska an honest and economical administra tion of public affairs. Not only have state institutions been made asylums for broken down politicians, but the public faads have been exposed to their rapacity with the result, that while the 26th general assembly or session of the legislature appropiated the enormous sum of 12,591,373 for public purposes, there will be a large deficiency at the end of the current year. Nearly every institution has already exhausted the amount appropriated for it and there are yet six months of the time unex - pired. In some of the institutions laborers have not been paid for several months and they will have to wait nntil the legislature meets and passes an ap propriation before they can draw their pay. There is scarcely an insti tution, in fact, there is not one, but at the end of the present year will not have a sadly depleted exchequer. What Is equally as bad as raiding the treasury is ignorance and incompe tency in managing the public institu tions. Evidence of this evil is abundant. Scarcely an institution has escaped. All have been used to reward party satellites regardless of qualification or fitness. Poynter has gone farther in making the public patronage a legal tender for the payment of personal ob ligation than any other governor has dared to go. Positions requiring skill and knowledge of particular branches have been given to party favorites ir respective of their ability to flu them. BrCHAXAX,Mich.,May 22. Genesee Pure Food Co., Lo Roy, N.
