WAITERS Manager BITES OP SUBSCRIPTION On Tmi la Admnee 11.50 Els Maths 76 TELCrrtOMES Plattsmouth No. 85 Nebraska No. 85 AUGUST 30,1909. When a merchant will not patronize liis fellows, but sends out of town for every little thing he needs which he does not carry, can he scold others for doing likewise? Once more America walks ofT with the honors in an international contest. This time Glen Curtis the only Ameri can who entered in the flying machine contests in France walked ofT.or rather flew off, with the honors. Uncle Sam has proven his powers on land and sea many times before and now he takes to the air for this latest victory. We are now prepared to meet them coming or going, up or down, in or out, with no fear for the results. It has been suggested by the Lincoln Star that all the Republican party in Nebraska needs in order to win its bat tles, is a leader. True, too true. It might also suggest while in the suggest ive mood that the Republican party slao needs a few less high privates in the rear ranks who take to the tall timber when they should be behind the Runs helping to win battles. No one wants to be the leader of an army filled with soldiers who are liable to take a shot at him in the back when things don't go to suit. Load your guns for the enemy and then shoot to kill. All this country is or has came from the hand of the Republican party and what it has done in the past it can and will do again. Washington is quick to forsee the political significance of the Grosscup decision limiting the powers of the in terstate commerce commission. If the supreme court agrees that the govern ment's power to fix rates through a commission is neither in the law nor in the constitution, the public will have but two avenues of escape from extor tion. One will be a constitutional amendment: the other government ownership of railroads. An amendment will be viewed as a practical impossibili ty by most people. . That will mean an immediate turn to the other recourse. In that day the railroads will be amazed to find how many people dread public ownership and ordinarily have no sym pathy with socialistic enterprises will hold the evil of public ownership to be a lesser one than the evil of unrestrain ed private control. State Journal. In Saturday's issue of the Daily Journal appeared an editorial much tainted with insanity, in which it is charged that A. L. Tidd is still editing the News-Herald. The News-IIer-Ald said: "Two years ago thought less republicans in this county elected a democratic county clerk, treasurer, and superintendent of schools." I de sire to say to the "Kunnel" that I did not write that editorial, but I will now say to the republicans who two years ago aided in electing those democratic officials, that their support was cer tainly misplaced. An examination of the Klopp-Bartlett & Co's. bills as well as other printing bills including the Hattsmouth Journal's bills, will show an extravagant waste of the taxpayers money. That, "Kunne.l" is what I would have said had I written the edi torial you commented on. A. L. Tidd. "SHAM BATTLES." The time is past for sham battles on the tariff question. The only victory we have won on the tariff in recent years was the victory of 1892, when we attacked the princi ple of protection. No real fight can be made until a distinct line is drawn between the opposing forces. W. J. Bryan, in Commoner. At last has the lid been taken off, and the mask thrown aside.

Y t t t X Wilson-Gorman act, a kind tween free trade and a tariff enue only. The child, however, bore enough of the characteristicsof its sire, that when the American people got a good look at it they repudiated it, and the Dingley act of 1897 was the result. Since that time the nation has enjoyed an unprecedented prosperity. Although the democratic party was overwhelm ingly defeated and has not dared to say a word about free trade, the leaders were not satisfied with the verdict and have bided their time with what pa tience they could until a reintroduction of the subject seemed more propitious. And now, glory be, the fates have been kind, even beyond their most sanguine expectations. ' ,(, As was to have been expected, when the democratic free trade show met with such a frost from the public, many of their newspapers, unable to stand the pressure of forever being on the losing side, boldly announced their con version to the principles of protection and Republicanism. But a high tariff has always been a source of annoyance to them. . Guirdedly the "revisioV'talk was commenced. The tariff was said to be a "sectional" matter.though just how one section of the country could be benefited from the operation of an eco nomic principle to the detriment of another section was not made clear. The "near" republican papers of the country lined up with the democratic press, and in a short time a horde' of patriots who didn't know the difference between a prolapsus and a protocol were lustily shouting for a "revision of the tariff." After about four and a half months of as earnest labor as a Con gress ever indulged in, the Payne-Al-drich bill became a law. While it is true that the free trade vultures cannot find much balm in it, the almost universal demand which they succeeded in stirring up for a revision has em boldened them now to demand more concessions for their European theories, as is evidenced by Mr. Bryan coming out unequivocally for free trade. The Republican party, however, cheerfully accepts the gauge of battle thrown down by Mr. Bryan and agrees with him fully that "the time is past for sham battles." It will be a pleas ure to fight, bleed and yea, die if", nec iesaaryin a shindy "Wherein Ihe Um WrmS will permit of a ready distinction be tween friend and foe. It is the jabs under the belt from unexpected quar ter? to which the News-Herald obi jeets, and with the lines drawn between the opposing forces, as suggested by Mr. Bryan, a new political alignment will result which can but be beneficial to the Republican party. The differ ence between free trade and a protec tive tariff is as wide as the poles, and remembering the experiences of this country under the democratic times' of 1893-7, we do not believe that the American people are ready for their repetition.

I i honld Know That in the comforts and economies it bestows no other article ever made (at the same cost) equals a Bissell "Cyco" Bearing Sweeper. The Bissell has displaced the dust pan and the corn broom, two primitive instruments of torture; has robbed sweeping day of its terrors, has made sweeping a pleasure instead of a drudgery and has saved housewives and servants time for other agreeable tasks by performing the work of sweeping in one-quarter the time the corn broom requires and with 95 per cent less effort. THE BISSELL Sweeper confines all the dust, thus protecting the furniture, draperies, curtains, bric-a-brac, etc. If there exists today a positive menace to the health of the entire family, it is the clouds of dust raised by the corn broom, which permeate every nook and corner in the home. The very latest improved "Cyco" Bearing Bissell sweeper can be bought at $3 00 and will last longer than fifty brooms. Why sacrifice health, comfort and convenience be cause of so slight an investment.
