the Express, what he said to the
delegates to the state convention.
"Fight thj devil and let the saints
alone." He doesn't deny that the
saints may sometimes lose their
temper. Even Jceovah is repre
sented in the Bible as being angry,
and one should not demand more
of a populist saint. Doth Taube
neck and Col. Norton are men of
unimpeachable honesty and integri
ty. Col. Norton has carried on
the fight without a days interims
sion for 25 years, and Taubencck
has been tried in a furnace heated
seven times hotter than usual and
came out without the snull of fire
on his garments.
Now these two saints arc fight
ing each other. Thf. Inoepkndent
advfes them to stop and fight the
devil awhile until they both get
into a good humor again.
Col. Norton got digusttd with
the Horr-IIarvey debate. He had a
right to get disgusted, so were we.
That debate was conducted on al
together wrong economic lines.
The essential and fundamental
principles of money and its func
tions were almost uholy ignored.
It was a battle between two metals
whether' one or both should enjoy
the favor of governments and what
had been done with them in the
past. Col. Norton got exceeding
ly weary of it, so did we. In his
disgust Col. Norton wrote an edi
torial and wanted to drop both,
gold and silver, and go in for scien
tific paper money. Taubcncck saw
the editorial and thought that Col.
Norton was going to abandon the
Omaha platform on silver, and
wrote a sharp letter to Col. Norton
in which he said that if the popu
list party ever came into power it
must get the votes from the free
silver wings of the democratic anil
republican parties and on that i-
sue alone.
Then Col. Norton got frightened
and thoui'ht that taubcncck
wanted to abandon the Omaha
platform demanded for a govern
ment issue of money direct, with
out the intervention of banks. The
Chicago Express jumped up and
demanded that Tauhcneck resign
the c hairmanship of the National
committee ami said several very
naughty tlungs. Sn the saint got
to fighting.

Low stock is at a very low ebb,
doubtless owing to Sam's question
able political affiliations.
Kx-CoDgressman McKtigan will
speak in Lincoln, Oct. 23d, and
every one should hear him.
Orders for copies of The Inok
I'ESDENi have been received from
several different states this week.
Several bundles went to Iowa and
Kentucky.
Hon. V. J. Bryan returned this
week from his speech making trip
in the tar west. He received a
hearty greeting from his numerous
friends.
Lincoln pa'k presented a splen
did attraction last Sunday in Ag
new's Juvenile band, of Creston,
la. It is a splendid organization
and drew a large crowd.
The republicans, after reading
the Ixdepeni.enk last week, built
a funeral pyre and burned their
Irish terrier transparency, and will
rely on the old yellow dog breed
of candidates.
Mrs. T. II. Tibbies (Bright
Kycs) arrived in Lincoln, Wednes
day evening, and immediately be
gan work on The Indei-edkni'.
For sometimes at least, she will
w rite for no other paper or maga
zine. The young bloods who are run
ning the republican party ibis year
have learned that it is a much big
ger job thin they contracted for
as the old stand-bys refuse to over
look the snubs of the bleeds in the
outset, when they started out tc
run the camnaicn on their own
took.
lupoids from every portion of
the county are to the effect that the
populists are gaining votes e.ery
o.iy. I itiens of the county have
become tired ol ting rule, jobln ry
thieviry and the result will be the
eh lion of the entire populist tuk
et. The people want honest gov

Another conscientious republican
editor has been discovered the
Bennett Union man. Having tired
of re publican ring rule he has bolt
ed the ticket and is but in support
of the populist nominees.
livery republican paper in the
county has endorsed Col. Fred
Miller's honest, economical ad
ministration ,of the sheriffs office
time and again during the past two
years. Fred will be re-elected by
a handsome majority.
Lhas Baker is making a clean,
honorable campaign. His record
of the past four years in the dis
trict clerk's office is above re
proach, his character clean and his'
integrity beyond question. Baker
is all right.
For twenty-five years the re
publicans held the office of district
clerk in Lancaster county tnd
worked it for all there was in it.
In all that time there was not h
word said or printed about the ex
cessive emoluments of the office.
Of all the hypocrites on the face of
this round earth, a republican
ring hypocrite is the most disgust
ing.
As the canvass advances the fact
becomes more-and more apparent
that in the acceptance of the nomi
nation for county clerk by Prof. G.
II. Walters, the citizens of this
county have an opportunity to pro
cure the serv ices of the most compe
tent man for whom they have ever
had the priviledge of voting for
that office. The court records
under his charge would be models
for the whole state. A beautiful
penman, a fine scholar and a per
fect gentleman everywhere and all
the time, the county should feet
honored in having Mr. Walters in
iti sevice. The speeches 1 e has
ma Je in this campaign show a very
high order of intellect. Mr. Wal
ters will be elected.
Lancaster county never had the
opportunity to secure as competent
a man in all it history for probate
judge as it has now in the person
of Mr. i. W. Berge. Heisaman
