It takes a lravu man to stand tip

'I'l.ATTSMotrTM first, last and all

every man and woman who make
Hattsmouth their homes.
Xowthat the election excitement
has about passed away let us buckle
down to business and work for the
best interests of I'lattsmouth .

That is about all we are likely ever
to v.ct for the six or seven hundred
millions of dollars the islands have
alreadv cost us.
Standtat Republican organs
keep oti talking about the "race
problem." The only race problem
that exists in the south is whether
the negroes do the work and earn
the wages that are offered them, or
whether the work and the wages
are to go to people of the white
race.
Si:cki:tak v Tai t says there isn't
a word of truth in the rumor that
he is going to quit the Cabinet to
run for President. There is noth
ing better, though, than a denial of
a false rumor now and then to keep
alive a suggestion which might
otherwise die forIack of nourish
ment. Xo matt ick who is elected today
the Journal fc-eis that it has done
its duty to the democratic candi
dates without making one mis
statement pro or con. We also
feel that, in regard to the opponent
candidates, the Journal has been
flee from abusing any one on the
republican ticket.
Ir the democrats are going to
nominate President Roosevelt in
1' is, as many republicans now
claim, the wisdom of Kric Johnson's
recent polical move will be appar
ent, providing he stands hitched till
that time. For fifteen years or
more Ivric has been a populist, but
recently flopped over to the repub
licans making two republican pa
ners now at Wahoo.
Tin: Council Bluffs Xonpariel
claims that a rarity in the animal
world in the form of an albino opos
sum, was captured in a common
steel trap a few nights since by
William Manhood, living about S
miles northeast of that city. The
animal is pure white and) has pink
eyes. It is about half grown, has
already become quite a pet and is
as safe to handle as a cat or clog.
Kvr.x the big newspaper men
sometimes see visions and have
their pipe-dreanis. Walter Well
man, correspondent of the Chicago
Record -Herald, comes out in a
.statement that a "prominent Dem
ent" told him that the Democratic
party would in 190S nominate
Roosevelt as their candidate. He
adds that they will do this in ad
vance of the Republicans, and thus
r.ot only take the wind out of the
latter's sails but compel them to
endorse their candidate.
Two republican "Roosevelt" fac
tions met in Chicago a few days ago
in different rooms. They had to
meet in different rooms, beeause
one crowd locked the other out.
One faction endorsed Roosevelt and
his railroad rate plan: the other en
dorsed Roosevelt and damned the
railroad rate plan and there you
are. The representative from Cass
county acted with the faction that
damned the president's plan. It
reminds one of what may be expect
ed when congress meets to give us
railroad rates.

JUDGE HARVEY D. TRAVIS,
Re-elected County Jude hy a plurality of six vote:
THE OFFICIAL COUNT OF THE VOTES
The official count of tlie ballots which was completed
at 4 o'clock this afternoon, shows that Jiule Travis' ma
jority was six as was reported. Only two errors were
found. In Mt. Pleasant. McBride gained four votes and
in the Fourth ward of Plattsmouth he lost ten votes.
Tmc Journal expected to give the
official vote of the county in this is
sue, but the result of the official
count was not declared in time to
enable us to do so.
Otoi: couutv democrats fared te-
i
markablv well this vear. Thev i
elected W. W. Wilson judge, Chas. J
Busch clerk, John Donovan sheriff, j
Henry Festenau commissioner, and j
C. W. Pierce surveyor. !
Tin: citizen who spends money
with home merchants when he has
it can rely upon being accommoda
ted when he is without means to
pay for what he needs. Will the
Omaha merchants do this?
W. K. Roskxckaxs, county clerk
elect, while in the city today was
greeting his friends in the same
manner that he did before election.
'Rosey" will be the same with the
people when he takes charge of the
office.
Oni: of the hopeful things indi
cated in Tuesday's election is the
fact that it is getting easier for men
to scratch their ticket than former
ly. When the people reach the
point that they will vote for men
rather than for party, there is hope
for the country.
Tin-: result in Cass county shows
that people are no longer voting
the republican ticket simply be"
cause Roosevelt is at the head of
the nation, as some of the hide
bound henchmen would have them
do, and tried so hard to work up a
sentiment to this end.
Sauxders countjr elected the en
tire fusion ticket last Tuesday, ex
cept coroner. Wonder if the sell
ing out of Joe Lahppelle at Ash
land and the flopping of Eric John
son of the Wahoo Xew lira brought
about this result? It certainly has
that appearance, as both have been
publishing populist papers until
quite recently.
Tin-: Xebraska City Xews truth
fully says that the business of a
town should take lessons from the
bees, and when it is found that
there is a drone in the commercial
hive, manage in some way to get
it out of the way. One chronic
grumbler or scalawag of a store
keeper in a town can drive away
trade from the place.
The corn crop is so big that the
farmers are going to have a hard
time to get it in. Some of the men
who have been actively engaged in
political work during the past few
L ill ittHtMnilg CfaMMi
mouths, might now turn their at
tention to corn gathering to a very
good advantage.
NEWS OF THE RAILROADS
Burlington Engineers Secure New Agrre
ment From the Company First
Since Strike of 1838.
TI.e brotherhood "f locomotive eng
ineers has ecured a new agreement
with the Chicago. Burlington &
Quiuey railroad company the iirst
iigrt ement made by this company
with the engineers since the t;ieat
strike of 18ss. The agreement became
elective on November 1. Discussing
this an engineer said to the Lincoln
Journal:
This is tlie Iirst agreement we have
been able to make with the company,
although tlie road has been organized
for three or four years. When the
organization of the engineers on tlie
road began there was some disposition
on the part of minor otlicials to block
the plan, but something from higher
circles soon cooled their ardor and the
men learned that there would be no
objection to organization. The work
went along quietly until now nearly
every engineer on the lines in tne
west belongs to the brotherhood.
"The agreement does not bring an
increase in wages. There has been a
readjustment of tlie schedule" and
some men get better pay, but the men
as a rule will not be benetited by the
new schedule further than dealing
with the men as a body by the road
may benefit them.
"The agreement was secured with
out fear of trouble, and the relations
of the brotherhood's representatives
and the company's officials have been
friendly. The brotherhood did not
insist on an increase in the rate of
pay."
