Today this store stands aloue- wonder-to many people. It owns
and band down to yon clothing, Bboea. etc., at a lew price than many
stores pay for them. The things left untold, the the things we cannot
pat into print the touch, the look, the seje-tbe rich coloring, the
atmosphere of elegance surrounding our Javetiile clothing, make the
price attractions doubly wonderful. Four itotna today stand for a
store full.

people want paper money, and for
mailer amounts they want silver. The
other day a gold bog farmer trading In
this city actually refused to accept a five
dollar gold piece in change. lie said
that be knew that It was the only money
of Intrinsic value and was tho best money,
but be did not want it because it was so
easily lost.
A correspondent writes: "I see a
statement In an editorial in the Indepen
dent saying that all the silver not used
in the arts, now goes into the ourrency
of the world. If that Is the case, why Is
there such a fight put up to prevent free
coinage? How could free coinoge in any
way Increase the volume of money In
circulation?" These gold standard fol
lows know very well that the free coin
age of silver and giving to It the same
privileges by law that gold now has,
would immediately result In bringing
silver bullion to a parity with gold at
the ratio of lOtol. The doubling of
the price of silver would result In the
same increase of the output that the
doubling of the purchsing power of gold
has resulted in In regard to that metal.
That Is bow It would increase the vol
ume of money In circulation.

It is acknowledged by the Journal and
by Bixby the poet, that the liquor and
saloon interest, the bums and thngs, the
gamblers and prostitutes made toe re
publican city nominations by votes at
the primaries and by counts afterwards.
Who wants to vote such a ticket made
and owned by such a gang?
We are all either little Americans or
bloated Americans alter thin, Our Jour
nals either yellow jonrnals or McKlnley
journals.
It does not appear the Filiplneos are as
such small potatoes after all, by the
way they etand up and flgbt for their
liberty. Ift wonld not require much
valor on our part to whip dwarfs and
cowards, and yet our boys exhibited
great courag and valor in the lace of
the enemy. We may think it best to
makeapreeident of the man who takes
Aguinaldo's sword as we did the man
who took Lee's sword. The more pow
erful the enemy thegreater the conquest.

or useful as it should be. They have but
to compare the present advantage with
the collem advantage of fifty years ago
to change their minds. In my college
days, work shops, furnaces and gymna
siums were never beard of connected
with a college, No agricultural depart
ment was ever beard of, where a student
could learn to make bread and butler,
cake and cheese, or how to care for the
apiary and benery, More and more, our
nursery Is educated for practical life.
Country people have no reason to com
plain, for our university Is full of country
boys and girls, while our prisons and
reform schools are tilled from be cities.
We have said, and say it airaln, bettor
scrimp every other stute Institution than
the university. We must employ the
best medical skill for our curable insane,
so we ehnuld provide the best educa
tional ekill for our boys and girls who
are not Insane. The txt pay will bring
the beet talent. There is nothing that
grinds our state pride so ranch as to
have other states fieh out our best
teachers. A hook butted with a few
hundred dollars more will do It. Nothing
would pleas us more than to be able to
flan for the beat b-uohera In Other slates.
Vice and crime flourish beat In Ignorant

off tbe Cuban array is still aboard ship
in Havana harbor. The eo-callod Cuban
Assembly has the mueter rolls of the
army and return to turn them over to
Gen. Qomex. The rioting In the streets
of Havaua has ceased, but no one
knows when it will begin again, Heveral
regiments of volunteers have been sent
hume and more are to follow. Tbe poor
regulars who are to be left there to flgbt
the yellow fever through the sickly sea
son now just coming on are to be pitied,
Many are asking; Why should the regu
lars be luft there? Why don't they bring
them borne too? What further business
have we In Cuba?" No man replies to
that question either,

G011, Wood will put the stsrving Cubans
to work again. The Idea seems to be
Ingrained In plutocracy that work must
not bo furiilehed to starving people it It
can be avoided. It was all right to
sieud millions to send rations to the
starving, but when It came to allowing
the said starving people to work, theu
every plutocrat in the army and of It
wus against it.
Nothing new has come from Porto
Rico, There is however no doubt that
tha Island Is In a constant ferment,
Home of the oltlxens got together and
organised a republican party pledged to
stand by McKinley and the gold stand
ard. Much they know nbout the matter.
They were probably thinking that that
was a good way to get ollli'os.
Tbe sensation during the week in the
political world lias been the Jefforsonian
dinner in New York which Is to coma off
April 15. In tbe first place Crokertbe
Tammany chief announced a dinner at
flO a plate and Imperialism was to be
the question discussed, Perry Ilnlmont,
who is Rolhcbilds agent in this country
and a gold bug from the crown of his
bead to tbe sole of bis feet, was ths one
wbosentout tbe invitations. He sent
one to ISryan. Ilryan replied by asking
him If be was still flgbting the Chicago
platform. Relmont replied that tha poli
tics of the guests was not taken Into
consideration. Then Rryan refused to
accept and some one else started a dan
lor a Jefferson lun dinner at I a plate,
The Miinir took like wild Are and there
were 00.000 applicants for tickets. Tbe
democrats all over tbe state fled to
llryan's standard and left Croker and
Relmont out in tbe cold. It shows that
the rank and file of the common people
of New York are for Bryan and free sil
ver at 16 to 1. Dick Croker and bis
gold bug allies have been whipped right
in tbelr own barnyard.

THE SUPREME COURT
Whan th Jdt are Dlahoneat or Partl
nn th Fuuudatlona of Goverouiaiit
ara Dcitrojed,
Editor Independent:
While I have many things to talk
about and many things which are of In-
tereet to me and to the populist party,
yet I do not care to burden tbe Indepen
dent. There are many things indeed to
write of, It seems to me that ths popu
list party should so handle tha affairs of
the party that we might carry tbe high
est number of votes possible, I do not
mean to infer that the party bas not
been handled correctly, or In tbe beet
possible manner, considering tbe amount
of money that we have had to handle
tbe party with. Here in Nebraska, there
are a certain number of voters who cast
their ballot for principle, and there are
a large number who oast tboir votes for
tbs man, '
This thing of casting the vote for tbe
man who Is able to draw tbe admiration
of the voter is one of tbe great factors in
politics. If those who have given this a
little consideration will notice, tbey will
oertaluly see that this Is one of the great
qualities of Rryan. Ta attract the ad
miration ot tne masses, 'J ue man who
is attractive, is tbe roan who is ueually
elected to office, unices the opposing
party has an overwhelming innjorlty. It
seems to me that the populist perry
should be governed to a great extent in
this direction in nominating a man for
office.
Huppose that the strength of tbe popu
list party in Ncbaska Is one hundred
thousand, and the republican party of
about the same strength. Buppoee that
both parties nominate a man for ofliee;
the republicans, If they nominate a man
who Is not popular wltn I lie people, win
lose two or three thousand votes lu tbe
state. Rut if the populists nominate a
man who Is in accord with t he common
people, they will carry two or three
thousand votes more than their
streriKth, That means that tbe republi
cans would full behind on tbe election
about five or six thousand votes, Now
when we come to conalder this in its full
est sense It means much to the party
that nominates the best men, We had
one example of this kind, one in Ne
bniMkH, When Tom Mnjors mane tbe
run for governor thera were plenty of re
publicans In Nebraska wbo could have
curried the state, Rut you will note
that Tom Mnjors was not a popular
man, while iioicomb stood close to tne
eople, That made one of the great Oil
ereures In the vote, I realize that Rose-
water did not support Majors and all of
that, but If Judge Crouuse bod been
nominated, Iioicomb could not have
been elected. This is tbe only one proof
that tbe man who stands close to the
people, and wbo knows the wants of tbe
people, and wbo does not do things for
tbe honor of doing them, Is the man
wbo will carry tbe votes. Rut I was
going to talk of tbe supreme court. I
do not wish to speak of the nature of
th court, that Is when a law Is taken to
the supreme court by appeal to test tne
constitutionality of that law. Recluse
every man knows that the conrt is tie
lost resort for justice, except tbe mouth
of tbe cannon. If you were to take a
law to the supreme court to teat its val
idity or constitutionality, tna real val
idity of that law wonld cut no figure If
tbe jodaes were not dispnaed to be hon
est in Its construction. - The opinion of
tbe oourt would depend on tbe honesty
of tbe court. If tbe court were honest in
their opinion, tbe construction wonld, In
all probability, be correct. But if tbe
court were not honest, the construction
may not be correct. Their construction
would tit tneir politics, tiut every man
knows tbis. If yon wi 1 look op the Uta
case of tbe Omaha mayor, you will prob
ably see one of tbe constructions that
was Intended to fit their politics. And
every man can see this, that onr supreme
court should be composed ol nonest and
upright men. If our supreme court is
corrupt, tbe fundamental principles of
tne constitution are endangered, out
what are we going to do that wa may be
sure of electing a man to tbe supreme
court this fall? Wa roust nominate the
man wbo can carry tbe most votes.
am not electioneering for any man, but
if Hiloa A. iioicomb were nominated wa
would be sura of electing the man.

CARE OF PEACH TREES,
Riding on tbe train with Ex-flovrraor
Furnas yesterday, be remarked that be
had just visited tbe machine shops of tha
Dempster Manufacturing Company of
Beatrice, and saw there a great quantity
of filings and shavings ot iron, and ha
waa reminded that many years ago
when tbey bad moeblne sbopa in Brown
villa bs uaed tbe shavings from turning
lathes and filings and iron waste about
bis pear trees also with other fruit tree;
that be bad lound it very valuable in
deed to incorporate in tba soil about
fruit treea and especially lor pear trees.
He thought it bad a remarkable infla
me in guarding against blight and in
improving tbs quality of tbe fruit, ut
remarked that tne venerable Mr, wilder,
president of tbe American Fomolgicai
Society, bad stated to bim rery many
years ago that one thing we needed out
here for tbe best sucoessTn tbe growing
of tbe pear waa more iron in tbe soil;
that in New England they bad a con
siderable amount of Iron in tbe soil in
many places all tbey needed. Where
not as much aa was needed it waa ad
vantageous and profitable to apply It.
Mr. Furnaa remarked that it bad been
bis habit to aeenre a quantity of tin
cans, any Iron scrap waste and dig It
into tbe aoil about bis treea, that ha
lound it a remarkable benefit. To tbla
treatment and to tbe spraying ot the
trees themselves with Bordeaux mixture
he bad attributed his freedom from pear
blight la an orchard of 700 pear treea
leat season be found bur one small
branch that showed tbe slightest trace
of blight. ,
II also need red vsrmillion and a lit
tie bolkd oil to coat th trunks of hie
pear tree. He thinks there i some
thing ia that. He also thoroughly be
lieves ia spraying to guard agamst fun
gas dieeaae, codling moth, and other
inaect enemie.
Doubt Was Iron tbe parts ot tbe great
amount of farm machinery that Is lying
