Ham marches onward. The principle
for which no tnitny of u have contended
for many year Ruin ndhereota every
duy. The time when we were only per
mitted to epeuk on a street corner or in
a eod school house are punned. Our
ability to conduct ft 11 economic nl ate
government, hit been demonstrated.
Every honest man la ho well pleased with
tba result that we hIiiiII aoon be asked
to take charge tf the national govern
ment nud run It after the same fiishhiu.
When we do, the great common jteople,
whom Lincoln aiiid that God loved mi
well, will come to their own again and
prosperity will permanently nhido lu the
Inrmer'a homes and in every village and
city in all our beloved lund. Write mo

The Iowa attite convention mt the fol
lowln'atateinent Into their platform:
"Tho monetary standard ot thlacoun
try find the commercial world ia gold."
Heimtor Allieon wrota that, but the
statement I f'tlae nnd bn kuewHt wna
fulae when he wrote It. The monetary
stniidiird of thla country la not gold. A
gold etiiiidnrd country ia two in which
gold la t ha only legnl tender. In tbia
country there nre 1102,000,000 oleilver
and :i 10,000,000 of greenbacks which
nre it fu'l legal tender lor nil private
debts. We nre not alllilii ft thoiiennd
milea ol 11 gold etnndii'd, and tool Hen
'ator Allison knew that wn were not Is
proven by the words that follow the
above statement In the Iowa piriform.
They are very significant: Henafor Al
lison sm.vs: "The perniancy ol this stnnd
nnl iniitti lie secured by congresslonnl
legislnllon, giving to It the vulidlty and
vitality of public law."
1 tlioe words mean anything, they
mean that the gold stundard has no
'validity" In law and no "vitality" i x
cept that to be henmflcr secured by law,
What Is the nature of this law that Hen
ator Allison wants? What will give the
gold standard "validity"? What will
give It "vitality?" Nothing will dolt
except a law that will make silver dol
lars und all other forms of money
dccmahle in gold on demand. That
means a further contraction of I h legal
tender money of this country of at least
f 102,000,000. That Is the goal aimed
nt by the republican party, Hen n tor Al
lison secured bla sent In the United
Htates Henata by falsely pretending that
ha was a blmetiilllst and has for twenty
five years kept it by deception. Now lie
attempts another deception.
A NKW VKI.I.OW JOl llMAI,,
According to the highest authority In
t ha republican party of th-i state of Ne-bno-ka,
Henator Mason ol Illinois has
turned Into a "yellow journal," In a
recent Interview in speaking ol the treat
ment of our private soldiers he says:
"Hliaiin ful, dilgrnra fnl, Infernal, damn
able there Is no word too strong to use,
not alone against the official neglect
and blundering, but also against the
railroads. This is the crime of the cen
tury, the tragedy of the nation. Our
soldiers have not pourrd out their blood
on the altar of their country, but have
been crucified by blundering and plun
dering officialdom," If another citizen
of Illinois, by the name of Allgeld bad
made those remarks, what would have
happened then? Ohl what? It Is fright
ful to contemplate the result..
A MISAI'I'HILIIKMNION,
One ol the most common misappre
hension Is that If we have money all of
which has the same purchasing power of
gold, then we have the gold standard.
Nothing could be fart her from the truth.
The government could tomorrow issue
Ave hundred millions of paper money
and by making It a full legal tender,
every dollar of it would remain at a par.
ity in purchaelng power with gold. Hut
that would not be a gold standard.
There is not a gold standard country in
the whole world except (Ireat Uritaln
and she hardly lilla bill. The object
of the republican party is to cMiiIiIinIi
the gold standard. It means greater
differing than the world ever knew. Hut
if It Is continued lu power it will surely
do it.

With 20,000,000 less wealth lu Illinois
and $10,000,000 less In Iowa us re
ported by the assessors, the mullet
headed republican editors will have a
hard time making the people believe
that wealth Is Increasing, When they
come to think over theeubj"( t more
fully perhaps the said editors will con
clude that the best wuy would be to
huug thems Ives,
OAMIU.INU, NOT hUslNKM.
The commercial n ports of immense
volemns of hmdueae being transacted
are frauds of th first water. It Is not
business at all that they nre talking
about unless gambling Is to be consid
ered a regular business. Home billows
go on the board of trade and buy a mil
lion dollars worth of securities. 'Then
they circulate soma lie" a bout this or that
company and thesecurities rise or fall an
eighth of a cent and they sell out. That
is nn Increase of I wo million dollars lu
limine according to Hun and Hrad-
strei t. That is what the grdd bug call
prosperity, When it comes to actual
biilness In buying and selling commo
dities there Is no Incrensu but a falling
off, Prices ura nil tha time falling, and
there is no such thing as prosperity with
continually falling prices. In Dunn's re
port of Heptember 1 1 th the following ap
peals; "No doubt some farmers have learned
that it Is poor business to hold back for
higher prices, yet many lire doing it and
so nre making inevitable a more disas
trous decline in prices after a time," In
other place he says; "The prices de
manded ut the west cannot be main
tained," Hun is trying to break it gently
to the farmer for fear they will all leave
the republican parly and join the
"pops," When t his year's crops get fairly
on the way to market and wheat Is 40
cents and corn 1H, the most of them will
join t he "pops," The sensible ones have
already.

An old friend writes to inquire about
exports and imports and says: I "Don't
understand the thing at all. Hornet lines
I am Inclined to think that the figures
sent out by tba treasury department are
all Ilea. Now here is the last statement,
said to be the olflcial figure of the ex
ports of the United Htatea to Great Hrit
aln and the imports from that country
Into the United Htates. Exports; f !H0,.
800,lo2. Imports; fl 00,188,152. Now
il we sent to England good to the
amount of f 4-t 1,72 1,787 more than we
bought from her and we only received
about 9 100,000,000 more gold than we
ej; ported, what became of that other
.1.11,721,7877 That id the thing that I
want to know."
In the first place a very large part of
It was kept in England to pay the Inter
est on the debt we owe her eople. An
other part went to pay ocean transpor
tation which is nearly all carried In En
glish steamships. About $100,000,000
were spent by American travelers and
in thesupport of dukes and lords who
have married American heiresses. Home
of it went to Uracil and other Hotith
American countries to pny for coffee
and things we buy of them for they are
paid with drafts on London. The figures
show that the assertion of bimetnllists
that we are indebted to K 11 rope about
Ave billion dollars is trim and that we
must send a large part of the products
of American labor every year to Europe
to pay interest charged. We didn't give
Englum! any ol those goods, They
were all paid for.

The people who are forced to read the

knows that, those prices are just about

Nebraska bus 700 more troops lu the
field than her quota. Many of the men
In these regiments enlisted when the
country was In dinger leaving vast bus)
ness Interest or families unprovided for,
They enlisted because they thought
their country needed their services, As
long as their country needed them, they
were willing to serve regardless of the
persoual eacrifiice they were forced to
make, Theieare many men lu thoi-e
regiments who can serve without great
persoual sacrifice and are willing and
anxious to do so, Col, Hryan, with the
good, hard common sense with which be
has always met every problem of public
policy suggests to the authorities that
the men in these regiments who cannot
serve except at a great financial loss to
themselves or great suffering to their
families should lie permit ted to resign.
In answer to that reasonable request,
the Journal' Washington liar tele
graph that Nebraska having 700 more
men than her quota, the president will
re.mll the first regiment all the way from
Manila and ship another regiment half
way around the world to take it place.

Henator Kyle went to Cleveland und
had an interview with 1 1 an mi. After the
interview he annouueed that he would
stand by the gold standard. A few min
ute uftcrwurd he was struck with para

levy no income tax, own the t legruphs
or establish saving bunks, so he just

Governor Holcomb will come back
from Washington with $ J 0,000 in hi

Judge Ilayward don't deny that the

(100.00 of the 82,401,700 05 of state
debts that the republicans contracted
while they were in power, but he swears
by the holy horn spoon that every man
who had a hand in doing it ought to be
turued out of office.
Populism everywhere has made the
same record. Every one of the six pop

down of expenses in the state of which

but it has not yet been given out for
