Tbe World-Herald tells the story of J6hn Cudahy. Five years ago John went broke In working a corner on lard. Helostevery cent be bad and 12,000, 000 besides. In the expressive phrase of the street he was "two millions in the hole." The World-Herald sagaciously tells the further story of John's career in the following words: John Cudahy Is not the man to sit dowuund weep over the cold nahe of departed hopes, He gave bis creditors all he had and remarked: "I'll pay every cent In time." He went to work Itka a man and worked iiinlifc and day. His creditor believed in him and gave him time. Last week John Cudahy paid the last, dollar of hi- Indebtedness, und did It without flourish or trumpliel. In II re years he made good every dollar ha lost in that speculation, and today stands before his fellows free from debt, and enjoying the confidence of his busi ness associates. There is a lesson for all men in this simple story of John Cuda hy 'a fall and rise. And there, is no need to wiisis time in pointing it out. There is, Indeed, a lesson for all men in this simple story. The lesson is "Stop the stealing of fellows like John Cudahy." This is probably not the lees on the World Herald has in mind, but it is nil tlie lesson there Is of eepcc.ul value to mankind at the present time. John Cudahy never earned nny two million dollars in flvo years time. He never begged it. There is only one other way to got 12,000,000 and that is the way John Cudahy got it. Ha simply went out into the market place nnd the labor market and robbed some other fellow of the two millions. And if the operation were carefully traced down It would doubtless be found that the farm- ere. and stock raisers of Nebraska were the people who suffered a I urge purt of the robbery. As the World-Herald wisely remarks, "there is no need to waste time in paint ing out the lesson" to a well-posted populist, particularity to one of those who knows that several hundred thous and dollars of the carnitine of the South Omaha stock yards have been diverled to the Cudahy and Armours. MKNAIOU ALLEN'S MIOUMIEBS. A disposition is manifested in some parts of the state to make Ihe single queslion of Senator Allen s re-election the issue in the legislative campaign this fall and the supreme qualification of a candidate for the legislature the fact that he will vote for Senator Allen's re turn. This is a dangerous disposition und it is time a few words were spoken plainly upon the subject. The re election of Sen ator Allen is an important part of the legislative election. It Is not the most important part. That is the enactmeut of some populist principles into law for the benefit of the people of the state of Nebraska. The next legislature will be called upon to frame n new revenue law, to determine the advisability ol a con stitutional convention, to meet the nuestiou of stale insurance, a state school text book system, state stock yards, and state title system. Import ant change in the irrigation laws will be proposed, possibly a new maxiuin rate bill. There ought to be a cod i dm tion of the Nebraska statutes to cure the humlreds of delects and contradic tions which are the result of hurrii d leg islation and w hich are a harvest of liti gation for lawyers. The node ought to be simplified and better provision made for the speedy settlement of disputes by arbitration. This isn't ull, but it is enough to inJi cats that strong men will be Heeded in the next h gislaiive assembiy nnd that the campaign to elect them must be a broader one than inertly the reelection of 8-nator Allen. Senator Allen's shoulder's are broad but they are not broad enough for IM men to elide into the state legislature on M.'ii ehoiild is liaue d for the legislature strong enough to make their own rum paga on tlm qiiisliou ol stab' h yi-la t on wlitrh w.ll b Ui lor considers! ion lira I wmler nut im-rely Imtmus they ill vote lor S'H itnr il..n. mr iikvt n or 1 1 ik Htv.

Ukm W THE NEBRASKA INDEPENDENT wife whose loving we'eome made the labors of the day seem light; and where the children that were wout to run with eager feet and laughing lips to meet him in the pathway? Gone, all gone I Grim death has claimed them for bia own, claimed some where brutal vioieuce neia sway end others after slow starvation mocked their suffering. The humble roof tree long ago suc cumbed to sharp mnchette and biasing torch nnd sank to earth In flume and ashes. Tie but a memory now. J ne fragrant blooming vine that graced the doorway In the days gone by, died to Its very roots, and o'er the little path way grows today the noxious weed uud poison vine. And this Is liberty! In all those days of lighting and of hardships in the field and bivouac he dreamed of glorious times to come, when Cuba should be free, nnd peace should spread her wings above a land redeemed, and bring at last a recompense to those who fought und suffered. And now that It has come, he who has borne the heat and burden of the fray has not a place to lay his head. I'eaee is declared and like Othello, "his occupations gone." The dawning of a better day has come for Cuba, has it come for him who fought her battles? Cun he uguin take up the tusks of life with out the old associations; the ties of fami ly und friends that deuth und wur have broken? What Is this new found Liber ty to him? Wht re cun be turn for rest since fighting days are o'er and cumps are broken up? Whose band will be out stretched to bid him welcome now? Another race of men, with life and hope before them, must come to this half ruined island of the tropic seas and build anew her fortunes and their own. The Cuban soldier Is not ready for the task before hi m. His energy is wasted and his substance gone. Ilia destiny must be shaped out by other, stronger hands, the while lie learns ogain the arts of peuco uud Duds ouuu more bis plucu in life. And so the dawn comes on and finds him at the threshold of a new ex stence, faltering, uncertain, undecided, unpre pared to meet the new conditions. He does not know yet whether he is glad or sorry that the war Is over; but he does know that bis part in life lies all behind, and that the dim and dun perspective f the duvs to come ure mirrored in the sombre laudscnpu at bis lent. And while the buzzards stalk about the plain, and wraiths of mist wind up ward from the marsh, he wonders still, and idly waits the coming of the day that follows fast upon "Tim Dawn of Liberty."

Metcalf, of the World-Herald, jerked the string und be fore anyone could stop her the thing wus done.

The republican statu committee met last week in this city, together with the republican cniididutes on the state ticket. There was active rivalry for the position ofchairmuii of the slate com mittee the point aimed at being posses sion of the party machinery. The chief candidates for the place were Brad Slaughter and Ed. R. S ;zr of Lincoln, and II. B. Schneider of Fremont. Mr. Schneider wus selected. He is engaged in the grain business at thirty or forty places in the stute, uud will be recollect ed by all who have been about the lust three Nebraska legislatures as the man ager of the sugar beet lobby. He se cured tbe enactment of the sugar beet bounty law in 1895.

The Cbnce, Stafford and Wampciiong mills will be shut down next week, making Idle nlxiut n quarter of a mill ion spindles nnd 2,500 bunds, nnd there will be a loss In wages of about $15,000 for the week "Are not the figures significant?

Every citizen knows that there has not been half that amount expend ed on the erection of new buildings and the repair of old ones. Ho the city of Lincoln is ot least $100,000 poorer in buildings than it was a year ng. That Is what the goiu bug repu.. ..leans call "prosperity." If things , o on la this way, It will not take much of a mathematician to tell wnen the plnca that Lincoln now occupies will be a howling wilderness.

I huve been making u special study of republican journals of the very highest clans iu uu effort to find out what patriotism is, ui.d according to these authorities patriotism cuu be exemplified in uny one of the follow ing ways: Oct hold of a public fruur chlse by bribery or nny other way, tux the people ull the trade will bear until you become a mi..ionuire. j lint s patriotism, linn a politics! cuinpaign on boodle, print your candidate's face on old glory. lhat s patriotism. Start a gnat department store, pay the girl clerks $3 a week and tell them to get a male room mute so as to hav a place to live. That's patriotism. Start a wood work factory and pay the men 85 cents a day. When they strike for higher wages send for th regulars, round them up and make them go to work, bieal a coal mine, pay Ihe miners so small wages that once in a while they rebel. Then shoot them down by the score in tue public higuwiiy. That's patriotism, -rganlzn a great trust, cut down production ami raise the price to consumers. That's patriotism. Help the railroads lo get legislation to suit them, then take, your pay in rebates and passes, i hat's patriotism. If added to all this you denounce every man who does not be beve in the above brands of patr.otisni as an anarchist and socialist and then you are a sure enough patriot.
