The Plattsmouth Journal
"Wk All Pul Together," should be
the motto every citizen of 1'lattsraouth
for 11)03.
Ir the duties on coal and beef are re

Hard coal is $ 1.S..V) per ton, ami the
dealers prollt is just 50 cents a ton for
handling It. How wc trusts make the
people pay for living!
While the removal question is up,
In which the Lincoln papers seem to
take a prominent part, why not agi
tate the removal of the capital from
Its present contaminating locality?
B. & M. and anti-D. & M is the man
ner in which the members of the pres
ent Nebraska legislature arc desig
nated. However, honors in this re
spect are alwut equal. The U. P. has
the governor.
In the battle royal forcontrol of the
Nebraska legislature, the Burlington
railroad got in their work In great
shape. Where could blubber-neck
Baldwin of Iowa, have been?
JcdoeJkshen was In Lincoln to see
the fun In organizing the legislature,
notwithtanding the numerous people
who were here to attend court Monday
and were compelled to go back home
and come again at thelrown expense.
Has It not come to a pretty pass that
the railroads control the legislature?
Mockett.a Burlington henchman, won
out for Speaker. Well, honors seem to
about even now. The U. P. got the
governor. How long will the people of
Nebraska submit to railroad dictation?
The remedy Is in their hands. Will
they ever use It?
In the eighty years since the Monroe
Doctrine was first propounded, the
navy or the United States has never
equalled that of any of the great Eu
ropean powers and yet the Doctrine
has never been violatad. The reason
Is plain. The United States feeds a
large portion of Europe. Were Ger
many or England, for instance, to
make war on the United States their
armies would starve. All this talk
about making our navy in strength
equal to their Is jingoism.
If every citizen of Plattsmouth will
do his duty In 1903, we can have a much
better town. If a person comes along
and desires to locate here, encourage
him to do so. Don't tell him there ;s
no room for the business he desires to
engage in. If the city council desires
to make any public improvement, don't
kick simply because it is not done in
yourwatd. They are not going to do
anything unnecessary. Makeupyour
mind to encourage them in all public
improvements in 1903, bearing in mind
what might have been done In 1902 had
you not been such an everlasting
kicker.
The twenty-fifth annual meeting of
the Nebraska state historical socie'yl
will assemble in Memorial Chapel of I
the State University at Lincoln, Tues
day, January 13, and continue in ses
sion two days. An Interesting pro
gram has been prepared for the occa
sion, on which we note that Hon. Ed
ward Rosewater is down for an address
on the subject of "Railroads in Ne
braska Politics." It Is a most appro
priate subject just now during the ses
sion of a legislature controlled by the
B. & M. and a governor owned by the
Union Pacific, and Rosey ought to be
able to do the subject justice.
The Journal regrets to chronicle the
death of Mrs. M. A. Dockery, wife of
Missouri's chief executive, which oc
curred at Jefferson City on New Year
morn, after an illness of about two
weeks of heart trouble. Thus has
passed to the Great Beyond one of the
noblest ladies in the land. The writer
has been intimately acquainted with
Governor Dockery since he entered
congress twenty years ago, and on sev
eral occasions had the pleasure of meet
ing Mrs. Dockery. This Is a sad blow
to Mr. Dockery, and no one more truly
sympathizes with him in his deep af
fliction than the Journal. Mrs. Dock
ery was a most excellent lady, and to
know her was but to love her, and her
death is an irreparable loss to Governor
Dockery.

THE ISSUES FOR 1904
16. Because the moral standard of this college is of the high
est type.
17. Because the schools record for through work and honest
dealing gives its graduates a prestige not to be had elsewhere.
18. Because Miss Edna Peterson, Atlantic, Iowa, writes:
25 "Through the influence of Prof. Lessemann I accepted a good K
x position here as stenographer. I cannot speak too highly of the fi
iustitution. The teachers are experts and place the welfare of
the student above everything else. I recommend the school as S
one where earnest students cannot meet with disappointment
19. Because students in our school receive instruction in
actual business, thus thoroughly preparing them for their work.
20. Because vou are assisted to a position when competent, h
21. Because this school has an honorable record. It does &
not guarantee positions to catch the unwary or misinformed
student. We have no difficulty in locating our students, when
they are prepared, because of the great demand for office help
trained here.
22. Because Miss Clara Weber, of Omaha, Neb., writes:
"I am pleased to recommend the Plattsmouth Normal and
Business College as being thorough in all 'its departments.
After completing the stenographic course in this college, Prof.
Lessemann secured a position for me in this city, where my
work is giving entire satisfaction. had three positions offer
ed me before I was prepared."

one-half the time, when our plan of instruction is followed,
that other systems require.
26. Because Miss Mabel Trussler, Plattsmouth, Neb.,
writes: "After studying shorthand and typewriting ten weeks
in the Plattsmouth Normal and Business College I accepted a

thank you for sending me such a competent stenographer."

pleased to note that the young lady from your college, located

The Successful Democratic Nominee
Will be Gorman, Olney or
Alton B. Parker.
Special to the Journul.
Washington, January 3, 1903. Ev
eryone knows that Congressman Rich
ardson is One of the brainest men in
the lower house of congress and the
democratic leader of that body. When
asked his opinion theotherday regard
ing the democratic standard-bearer in
1904, he said: "I think the contest in
the next National Democratic Conven
tion for the presidential nomination
will be between Senator Gorman, of
Maryland; Judge Parker, of Xew York,
and Richard Olney, of Massachusetts.
Each of these gentlemen will have sup
port, and I am not prepared now to say
which would make the most acceptable
candidate for the Democracy." He
went on further in the interview, as
follows:
"I think I can see a leaning in Mr.
Bryan toward Mr Olney. There is no
question that Mr. Olney is being boom
ed in the West. He will make a form
idable candidate. While not person
ally a magnetic man. he has a clear
political record and undoubted ability,
lie supported Mr. Bryan, as did Mr.
Gorman, and they are equal there. It
may be that some of the lingering ani
mosityto t. Cleveland will reactupon
that gentleman's former Secretary of
State, but we can't tell.
"Manv democrats have become re
conciled with Mr. Cleveland, and y-t
in some quarters, a great deal of bit
terness toward him is felt. Whether
Mr. Olney would share it isa question
"Mr. Gorman we all know. He has
been with us, worked with us and
for us. and his record is plain to all
democratic beholders, nis friends will
not let the nomination go to another
without a contest. Mr. Gorman will
be in that convention, and no man will
say that he will not be the dandidate.
"Judge Alton B Parker, of Xew
York, is forging to the front very rap
idly. From what I hear of him he
would be entirely acceptable to the
Southern democrats if he should be the
choice of the convention. .He has not
a blot on his political record, and would
go into the contest for the nomination
with a clean escutcheon.
TARIF KEFOKM THE ISSUE.
"What will be the issue?" Mr. Rich
ardson was asked.
"What better issue do we want than
the one the Republican party is now
furnishing us through its division on
the tariff quest ion V" Mr. Richardson
replied. "The people arc demanding
tariff reform. The republican high
protectionists will not give it to them.
"You will never have tariff reform
to suit the people," said Mr. Richard
son, with empnasis, "so long as me
manufacturer virtually sits in commit
tee and writes the schedule. The way
the protectionists usually reform the
tariff is to stick on a few points more of
duty. Then, when there is a clamor
for a change they say: 'Oh, leave the
revision of the tariff in the hands of
its friends.' .
"Some of the republicans, who are
more far-sighted than their associates,
realize the drift of the sentiment, and
they are trying to save- their party by
granting a modicum of revision. They
cannot get even that much. The high
protectionists are intrenched and they
cannot be persuaded to come out by
pleadings of their colleagues. They
will have to be routed out by the dem
ocrats.
The country is pat ent and has been
inclined to gi ve the republicans a show :
to let the tariff be revised by its friends,
but the country cannot be fooled for
ever, l think tne people are awaKen-
ng to the realization that the 'friends'
of the protective tariff will revise it
only to their further advantage."

Vigorous Old Age
Taine's Celery Compound makes the old
feel young, and cures their ills. It has added
years of health and enjoyment to many a life.
Use this great medicine regularly, and its invig
orating powers will fill your declining years
with health, strength, and happiness. Kead
what George F. Morse, 67 years old, writes:
Wells & Richardson Co.,
Gentlemen: Just a word in favor of
Paine 's Celery Compound, hoping it may catch
the eye of some afflicted person, and they
may receive the same satisfactory benefit.
Some 15 years ago I had a combination of
malaria, chills and fever, and grip, which con
tinued for a year or more ; meantime I lost in
weight about 60 pounds, trying different medi
cines and doctors with unsatisfactory results.
Paine 's Celery Compound was recommended,
and, after using a little I began to improve,
gaining about a pound a week. In a year I
had regained 50 pounds of the lost weight and
good health, and have been a well man ever
since. Yours truly, GEORGE F. MORSE.
