Tiik fact th.it xIltlfH are running high this siitnmer will not prevent some nfth' MliticiaiiH running pretty low. Akteu mending fences in the west the president will take to fencing his friends in the east. His new fenc ir ik' master is already engaged. Anyone who doubts that Senator Ilaima is a great leader should otserve how ollit'itIy and almost strenuously the president is shouting "Stand pat." ritKSIIENT IIooSKVEI.T'h Opposition to t he "wicked" trust s took Might as soon as it liecame evident that they could not le reaehed without a revision of the tarilT. What has kVcomeof the president's Miliey of a commission to examine the tarilT and make recommendations to congress concerning the schedules which require revision' TiiKlate Nebraska legislature sue ceeded in establishing such a repution for rottenness, that some of their acts are even a stench in the nostrils of many of their own party friends. I e has gone up :d per cent and an increase in the price of bread is threat ened. Meanwhile the eople are exH-cted to rejoice at the great re publican prosperity. (iovKitNoic Ci'.m.mins of Iowabelives that the time has come for readjust ment of the tarilT. Therefore, in the opinion of a cabinet officer, flovemor Cummins is "nothing hut a democrat The attempt of some newspapers to interpret the president's Chicago secch as a rebuke to Admiral Iewey falls ll.it when it is re Hotted that the speech was written several days before Admiral Iewey gave his now famous interview. Senatoic IIacon strikes the keynote of the democratic campaign policy when he says, "I't the dead bury their dead," the democratic party must espouse live issues and make a progressive tight against republican policies. It has tn-en suggested that if some of the state officials felt so inclined to investigate the acts of some of the members of the late Nebraska legisla ture, a numljer of them could be con victed of accepting bribes, and that nearly every lobbyist could also be con victed of offering and giving bribes. TiiKUKcan no longer be any doubt as to the position of 1 'resident IJoose- velt and his administration respecting the tariff. Tle President, Secretary Shaw, Secretary Hoot and Senator Allison have, during the past week, taken occasion to assert, without equivocation their alsolute opposition to any revision of the sacred Dingley schedules. It is impossible to estimate how far reaching may be the effect of I'resi dent Iioosevelt's vigorous forms of speech. Prince Henry of Prussia Immediately picked up the expressions. "made him feel like thirty cents," "go way back and sit down," "out of sight," etc., and now I Jar on Von Stern burg has learned to say, "It's bully- right off the bat." Missuuki is after bribers and bribe takers in the late legislature, and she will get them, too. Missouri is a dem ocratic state, you know, and will not put up with anything of this kind, if the authorities know it. 15ut hon estly, dear reader, did you ever know of a republican legislature doing any thing of this kind, even when they were almost positive that members of their body were guilty of such crimes? Representative Ha bcock say that the republicans lost many cities formerly republican strongholds, in the last election tecause the cost of living had increased out of all propor tion to the incomes of salaried men. Crops brought high prices and there fore there was no loss in the country, but with a bad season the party will lose the country, but with a season the party will lose the country vote If the tariff is revised. It is stated on pretty good authority that Iowa has a painter that lias won out against the man who painted the famous corn picture. He has even out classed the famous Greek painter who tainted the pictures of cherries so natural that the birds plucked at them. This Ioa artist painted a pic ture of a barbed wire fence so true to life that a man who got drunk on drug store whiskey fell against it, tore five holes Jn his pants and came out on the other side of the fence. No measure susceptible of greater abuse was ever placed on the statutes than the provision for Hureau of Cor porations, by the terms of which the mt vital statistics concerning theln dastrial corporations of the country are to be collected and placed in the f lands of the president to be used as he may see fit. 'o one, perliaps, ques tions Mr. Roosevelt's Integrity or be lieves he would misuse this tremend ous power, but with a weak or an un scrupulous man In the Vhi House these statistics could be ij tubulld uo an Impregnable mathlwhicti it would be Impossible for the lAaii overthrow without a revolution. Crisp Editorial Notes Have you noticed that the republi can party is rapidly losing the the sup port of all the leading republican news- pa ers? It must lie considerable satisfaction to Admiral Schley to see his enemies in the Navy department "stepping down and out." Is. I. Pier pout Morgan con tern plating the annexation of Cuba? No one will Ijelieve that he went there to inspect the island merely for pleasure. A large ninniVr of statesmen have returned to theirconstituentstoappeal for endorsements of their noble work in correcting election Irregularities in Missouri. Congress has left Secretary Cortelyou and his new department homeless Perhaps the Secretary will rind a tent fairly comfortable until congress con venes again. No doubt the president is at least "delighted" to have the house off his hands. lie need fear no prematurely discharged Cannon before next iH-ceni ber, at least. We have not noticed that President Roosevelt has nominated any negro youths to Annapolis or West Point. I lie willing toclose those "doors of hope" to the colored race? We have felt certain from the begin ning that the Panama Canal company won Id ex tend i ts option to su i t us, i u i te regardless of sensational White House "tips" to the contrary. The suggestion that the second place on the next republican ticket should be awarded to a negro should not be taken too seriously. Mr. Koosevent won't carry his fad that far. Dying men are said to tell the truth. It is at least certain that Senator Ma son, In the expiring hours of his term, told some very plain and unwelcome truths to his republican colleagues. There was much in the closing hours of congress to inspire hope in the hearts of democrats. As Mr. Lincoln once said, "You can't fool all of the people all of the time," and there are many indications that the people have learned a few things about the domin ant party. The Political Problem to Solve There is food for thought in the no ticeable spread of socialism in eastern tern states, particularly in manufact uring cities where the evils growing out of trust domination of nearly all manufacturing enterprises are felt more keenly than elsewhere. Elections were held in many towns andi cities in Massachusetts recently and some very impressive instances of the spread of socialism was disclosed. In somecitiessocialistselected straight tickets, hi others they divided the offi ces with other parties, and in every in stance, even when unsuccessful, the strength they manifested was such as to supply a new problem for old party leaders. To the development of the trust idea must be ascribed the results which have been noted. Despite the fact that some trust or ganizations have advanced wages, giv ing to workers a small proportion of the increased profits extracted from the people through ability to control certain commodities and compel the payment of h igher prices, there is much discontent. In no instance have men who toil had their wages advanced in proportion in which the cost of living has ad vanced. Hundreds of those who are turning to socialism thousands, in fact have vague notions regarding it. They are voicing a discontent and not indicating their final conversion to principles enunciated by apostles of socialism. In the Chicagoelection last week the socialists elected one member of the .11 i - a" . rri council, wnicu is signiucienu aims has never been done before in that city. If the democratic party is loyal to itself and to the people in the princi ples which it sets forth in the next democratic national platform, and takes a courageous stand against trusts and predatory wealth, it will attract to its ranks to fight under its banner the men of the nation w ho are depend ent upon their daily labor. Not only that, but it will win the battle. The man who is deluded with the idea that lie is right on all propositions and pretends to believe that those who differ from him on public or private interests are dishonest, would be a dangerous man to invest with power. Only men who are broad enough intel lectually and otherwise, to accord to ail men the privileges guaranteed by the constitution can be safely trusted to judge impartially and deal justly with their fellowmen. Talk for riattsmoutn. Don't pull back. You cannot build up you busi ness or increase the prosperity of your self or your neighbor by running down your home town. It depresses all with whom you come in contact. It drives business away. People shun the grum bler. If you are not satisfied with the town do something u Deiier 11 or "light out" to a more congenial spot. It costs no more to say a good word for your town than it does to knock, knock, knock. Just think guaranteed to wear '6 years that's what Gering & Co. do H iMtt.n's Ciin Proof Paint. V ' . 1 Opinions of Others. Fremont Leader: It will take the next fusion state convention just thir ty seconds to name the man for justice of the supreme court. Some one will hop up and shout, "I nominate Judge Sullivan!" A host will shout, "Second the nomination!" "Move he be de t l rni 1 it ktvi Sit! t I I itr ws I m t 1 "Second the motion!" "Aye!" And there you are. Kearney Democrat: A report has been unanimously adopted by the house of representatives making it a part of the duty of the superintendent of the Home for Girls at Milford, to gather evidence and prosecute all lie trayer of girls that are brouyht to that institution. The committee bringing in this report was headed by Repre (tentative Oscar Knox, who says that the committee found that sixty per cent of the girls in the Milford Home were betrayed and ruined under prom ise of marriage. Chicago Record (Democrat): The overzealous people who want to make Mr. Cleveland president for a third term are sadly wasting energies that might In; devoted to a better cause. They foolishly choose to over look the unwritten two-term law of the republic, which cannot be broken even for so good a man as Cleveland George Washington and Thomas Jef ferson fixed the limit that can never lie exceeded so long as the nation shal exist. Lincoln Male Journal: it the sioutli Platte people bury the hatchet and get behind a good man for the Deitrich succession; Mr. Mercer will still be in good position. It w ill only be necessary to wait two years for another vacancy and then an Omaha man will be the natural choice. If the line up remains as if is at present, he could have the place without much of aiight, for the wholes state is apparently aching to do something to show Mr. Rosewater that it doesn't pay to defeat republican candidates for congress in Nebraska, Nebraska City News: When, as a compromise candidate, Deitrich was selected by the II. & M., as its candi date for United States senator, there was general disgust throughout the state. He was undoubtedly the "weak est sister" ever sent to Washington to represent this state, and that is saying considerable. Rut how comes the in formation that he must step down from ins lofty pedestal and again be come a private citizen. For all of which we are thankful. Hut in connection with the above comes the awful statement that Deit rich s removal means the elevation of K. J. Rurkett to the senatorial toga That is going from bad to worse. In a fit of absent mi ndedness the people of Nebraska "redeemed ' the state by voting the republican ticket, and the present legislature was part payment for that crime. Rut why should the people be further punished by electing liurkett to the senate? Spare us, good Lord. Great Bargains in South Dakota Land Kxcntsiox KATES APRIL 21.
