THE NEBRASKA 'NDEPENDENT.
WHO SHOULD BE THE CANDIDATE?
This department is opened for the public discussion 0! the available candidates
for governor at the coming election. Free speech and open discussion of every
public question has always been one of the principal tenets of the populist party.
It is better for the party, better for the state, better for the candidate, that the
public should know the good qualities and bad qualities of a man before be is
nominated, than to proceed to a nomination and take chances in finding out bis
character and qualifications afterwards. Open discussion will injure the chances of
00 worthy candidate. It may prevent the nomination of an unworthy candidate
If there be any. The public has a right to know. Their only way of knowing, is
by public discussion. When thoroughly acquainted with the facts, the people can
be trustod to do right.
Communications upon this matter should not be long, and in every instance
must be signod by the author. Any article abusive and purely slanderous, writton
for spiteful purposes, will not be published.
What is the best course for the welfare of the state and the good of the pnoplu?
FAVORABLY MENTIONED.

I have read with much interest the
letters sugtr' "$ possible or probable
candidate 'governor. I am inter
ested as I artr an old time populist, hav
ing voted for Peter Cooper for president,
and have been in the ilgbt ever since,
although standing almost alone at
times. No doubt, as alreudy suggested,
iov. Holcomb would not accept a re
nomination for a third term and the
populist party should not inaugurate
such an extended tenure of office, the
evils of which are too apparent to need
mention here.
Mr. Spaulding's suggestion contains
merit in that it is only fair that a demo
crat should succeed a populist, for the
nomination, if one can be found who is
true to the interests of the people, and
there are plenty such. Rut Attorney
leneral Smyth is too valuable a man
in his present position where he must
be kept for two years longer, as there
are still some cobwebs to be swept down
by his legal broom.
Rut there is a man in the Oth judicial
district, a man who is far above the
average in ability, in fact who has but
few peers in or out of the state, whose
every motive is honorable and whose
loyalty to the people's interests is tried
and known. He was largoly Instrumen
tal in making the election of Senator
Allen possible at a time when there was
not much love lost between the demo
cratic and populist parties. This man is
Hon. John S. Robinson, now district
Judge. In 1894 an effort was made to
homioate bim for congress on a union of
the democrat, and populiet parties.
When this failed he went into the demo
cratic convention then in session, and
made a strong fight to have the meeting
endorse or nominate Hon. John M.
Devine. His impassioned appeal will be
remembered by those who were present.
He has been twice elected judge by the
populist and democratic parties.

Furor a Silver Republican.
Editou Independent:
In your last issue I see you have made
it in order for suggestions in regard to
candidates etc. Now I believe it would
be good policy (provided there is a
union of the ri'Iorin lorces) lor the popu
lists to name the candidate for governor.
I also believo that it is just and right
that whenever an officer has served the
people faithfully and honeHtly for a term
he should without u word of contention
bo given his second term, but never in
uny case a third term. So I say nomi
nate the present state olllees. Then
who is to be tho candidate for governor?
This is the question to be settled. Shall
the populisms name him and w ho shall
he he? Of n right the populists should
make the choice, and whatever his name
muy chance to tie be ought to be chosen
from the ranks of the force of the free
silver republicans. No populist, nor
democrat, if he is honest in his advo
cacy for reform and wishea to be fair,
will make any kick over this proposi
tion. The 2M.0IK) reform democrats are well

Hupports Attorney General Smyth,
Editou Indei'kndknt:
Dear Sir: Having noticed your Invlta
Hon for a private expression of views as
to who should be the next candidate for
governor of Nebraska, at the coming
election, I wish to publish my unquali
fled endorsement of the one man who has
proven himself to be the ablest and
most capable candidate which the peo
pie can nominate for the highest execu
tive office in the state. This Is none
other than Attorney Oenoral C. J.
Smyth, a democrat, true It is, but next
to Hon. Wm. J. Bryan, the greatest ex-
ponunt of the people s cause anywhere,
honest, loyal, brave and u born execu
tive; be would be the giant in tho battle,
and could win because so well and fav
orahly known, and because of his famous
record as chairman of the democrat
party, having performed noblest work
in that capacity in rescueing the party
from the most unprincipled corpora
tion barnacles ever known in the History
of Nebraska, familiarly known as the
,1 tumps.
It was his grand work while chairman
that laid the foundation which resulted
in the overthrow of the enemies of re
form in 1800.
As an embezzler convictor he stands
without a peer.
As governor he would be an honor and
a pride to the noble citizens of our com
monwealth.
Yours respectfully,
William 1. Johnson.

Editor Independent:
I notice that the Independent invites
discussion of candidates for governor,
and without meaning any disparage
ment to others, I wish to call public at
tention to tho one man who, more than
any other, is in a position to carry the
standard in Nebraska to success; con
servative and careful yet true an steel to
principle. A scholarly, Christian man of
the Ethan Allen type, before whom all
interests, from the greatest to tho
smallest, would receive even ami exact
justice from the standpoint of human
law tempered by immutable right; too
great for favoritism and too courageous
to bo moved by any coercive power.
The man who sent the stock yards bill
to the agricultural committee and de
fled the corporation attorneys to at
tempt to change his reference. And
lust, but not least, he represents the
greatest interest of Nebraska agricul
ture. After six years of intimate con
nection with Mr. Hurris in the transac
tion of legislative business, I nm satis
fled that there is no cleanor or stronger
man in the state, nor one who would
make a better governor, nud the people
of Nebrasku will inako no mistake if
they should promote the present licu-tt-nnnt-governor,
James E. Harris, to
the gubernatorial chair. Respectfully,
H. J. Stewaiit.

A Mlelnterpretntlon,
It is generally best to curb our im
patience before giving It vent In words,
as at such times one's language may
convey a different idea from Its real
meaning. Miss Kate Hunborn, In her
"Abandoning an Adopted Farm," re
late her annoyuee at being besieged by
agents, reporters, curiosity-seekers: I
was so perpetually harassed that I
dreaded to see a stranger approach
with an air of business. The other
day I was just starting for a drive,
when' I noticed the usual stranger hur
rying on. Putting my head out of the
carriage, I said, In a petulant and
weary tone: "Do you want to see mo?"
The young man stopped, smiled and re
plied, courteously, "'It gives me pleas
ure to look at you, madam, but I was
going farther on."

"I sometimes feel," said the old gen

"Why, what has he done?"
"I told him that beautiful fairy
itory about the sleeping boauty, how,
m soon as the princess was kissed, all
the clocks began to go and the ser
vants began to work, and all that sort
it thing, and he only said: 'Who press

Some surprise has been expressed at
the number of Lee-Metford and Martini
rifles fn the possession of the rebellious
tribes of tho northwest frontier of In
dia. The 31obe points out that the
British troops lose about fifty rifles
yearly stolen by the A f rid Is. An old
sergeant-major, who has spent many
years In India, says that, in spits of
double sentries and the soldiers sleep
ing with their carbines under their pil
lows, his regiment was continually los
ing weapons while on the frontier, the
natives creeping Iri during the night,
stark naked, and with bodies so covered
with grease that when one was de
tected it was almost impossible to hold
him. If an unfortunate soldier stirred
while his carbine was being abstracted,
a blow from a keen knife effectually
quieted him. New York Commercial

BULLETS IN THE BRAIN.
A New I'robe for Drain Sorgery from
Which Moeh Is Doped.
When a bullet has passed into a
man's brain, tiie chances are that its
track will have collapsed before the
services of a surgeon are available. Tho
brain is soft, mado up of many sections
of gray matter, Joined together in a
manner not unliko tho parts of n
sponge and separated by hundreds of
tiny canals. The slightest deviation of
ft prole in tho hands of an operator from
its proper course, and tiie probo enters
tbo brain mutter. It may need only the
slightest puncturing to canso instant
death or impair tbo brain. For years
hero hits lain tho greatest danger in
brain surgery,
A new probo is now invented, with
a spherical top, mounted upon a slender
haft, to diminish friction, A tinyscalo
is fastened upon tho huudlo, recording
in fractions of an ounce tho exact
amount of forco being exerted. It is
controlled by a spring, moved by the
stem of the probe. It is said that a
probo tip a quarter of an inch in diam
eter needs from to 8 ounces weight
to penetrate, mid from 1 to 8 ounces
to puss between convolutions. Tho pre
cise amount of forco being known, it
follows that, with this instrument, tho
surgeon could see whether he was in
the bullet's track or penetrating brain
tissue. '

Iligli Fresear Steam Holler,
A steam boiler carrying a pressnre of
8,000 pounds per square inch was shown
at the Stockholm exhibition by Mr, De
Layul, tho inventor of the well known
steam turbine and the centrifugal cream
seiirotor, Tho boiler is described as
being merely a long eonocutrio spiral
tube, less than an inch in diamater,
through which tho water is pumped, es
caping as steam at the end, where it is
used to propel a steam tnrbine. The
water supply is automatically regnlatod
Ly tho demand for steam, as is also tho
air supply to tho furnace. Notwith
standing tho extremely high pressure,
tbo boiler is believed to be a very sufe
construction on account of tbo small
diameter of tho pipe and of the fact
that if an explosion should take place it
would involve only a small portion of
the length of the pipe and a small qnun
tity of water. Engineering News.
Ihwterlal Mud.
An instance of oxide of iron associated
with bacteria occurring on a largo scale
has been investigated by Professor Man
abu Miyoshi, who holds the chair of
botany in the University of Tokyo. The
material examined by bim was a ferru
ginous mud from tho hot springs of
Ikao. This mud consists entirely of bac
teria, Tho bacteria seem to resemble tho
Leptotbrix ochraccaof Kutz, but further
observations will Isi necessury in order
to determine whether they constitute a
new species or not. From experiments
mado with hydroclilorio acid Professor
Miyoshi is led to believe that the oxide
of iron is not deposited on the walls of
the cells, but is more or less intimately
incorporated with them. No others of
the more common iron containing bao
teria, such as Creuotbrlx kuhmana,
wero fouud in this particular mud.
