ANOTIfKIl VEIO.
During the last hours of.ltho session
( the legislature the repub
licans onvolved a scheme to got that
body to endorse McKlnley's policy of
"criminal aggression" Injthe Philippines,
iut the quick eye of the governor caught
the phrase, bidden away in a resolution
of thanks to the brave Nebraska boys
who are laying down tbelr lives under
the order of McKluley on the steaming
plains and in the tropic jungles around
Manilla. The tanner governor could
not be fooled that way. lie sent a veto
, message approving all of the resolution
except the words "defending the prlnel.
pies of our government in the far-off
Philippines."
f&Wlth iti usual tread nory to ievery in
terest of the brave inenwuo enlisted to
fight in a war of humanity and who
have since boon forced to fight in a war
of aggression, the State Journal fseta
forth the matter la an editorial as
follows:
"The unionists In the two houses fool
Isbly assisted the governor to put bis
party on reoord as sympathising with
the treacherous leaders of the banditti
who undertook to march Into Manilla
to loot and destroy it over the dead
bodies of the Nebraska boys on the 4th
day of February last. If they long for
that issue they are welcome to it."
That sort of thing will please the ig
norant dolts that make up tbs mass of
the republican voters, bat Intelligent
men will only b dhgosted with such ly
ing rottenness. The veto is a public
document open to the Inspection of any
citizen. The universal disgust with
which tbe people look upon the lastbours
of this republican legislature will only be
increased by such foulness as Is exhibited
in the above extract, while all the de.
cent men in tbelr party who mourn for tbe
rottenness of their legislature, when they
eee that sort of stuff in their party pa-'
per, will start immediately tor a drug
etrore to get something to settle tbelr
etomachs.
The truth about the matter "is that
nine out of ten of tbe decent republicans
in the state are as much opposee to this
war of criminal aggression In tbe Phil
ippines as are the populists. There is
an universal demand among them that
the First Nebraska sball be sent home.
The offloes at Washington are filled with
petitions to that effect. Tbe only Idea
of the Journal Id publishing such stuff Ms
that it can get up a furor among tTe
bums and human beasts that vote the
republican ticket. It eertsJnly can not
havsany hops of Influencing men who
have any sense.
The report of the deputy couiraistloner
of labor shows that there has bea filed
In Nebraska sinoe Dmwiulter .'U.lHOl,

We once knew a little boy who stole
tbe bull of a neighboring boy, His
mother Jfound it out and told him to
take the ball and carry It buck, lu or
der to be sure that he did It slieJollowed
along a.fow steps behind with a good
hickory switch in her hand. When he
came to the bouse he threw the ball in
saying "there, take your old ball and
you are all thieves and liars but mother
and I," Ho when we read the report of
the Investigating committee at tbe state
house we are Inclined to think they are
all thloves and liars but Joe Hartley and

"wish my nusoana was nappy in
heaven, then I would be happier here,
negate orunr, quarrels and lights all
the time." 8o we begin to think that if
McKlnley and all who want the Filipinos
subjugated were in heaven It would be
better for earth. When we let looee on
tbe Spaniards In Cuba we did not bar
gain for a dosen wars.
we cannot sane-
tion tbe present war now raging la the
v nuippines. we nave no right to sanc
tion the wrongs our leaders do even In
times of war. Tne president can do
wrong as well as the king. We hope the
Filipinos will be able to establish th ir
independence if they have to tight seven
years to gain It, as did our forefathers.
We shall (eel like rejoicing if Samuel is
whipped as King Oeorge was. The best
men of America would stop this war.
We are told tbe Filipinos can never
maintain a government of ttwir own,
that tbey would flirbt each other. Well,
have we not fought each other. We
have had a Shay Insurrection, a whiskey
rebellion, a nullification uprising, and
Jeff Davis war. Can't we let them do
the thinxs we have done? They expect
ed their liberty for helping to drive oat
the Hpaniards, but in the place of a fhh
they get a scorpion. McKlnley makes
me think of lavo Hutler's calf: he pulled
the calf's ears off to get him up to drink
and then palled his tail off to get him
away. It was bard work to get McKln
ley to do anything for Cuba, and now it
is harder still to get him stopped.

The 1890 lcimiatuw came to an
end Sunday evening, April 9, at
o'clock, when tbe last bills had been
signed by the prodding officers, and
tbe gavols fell for the last time. Its
last hours were spent in trying to
agree on tho appropriation bills and
miscellaneous claims bilL It was some
time before the houses could agree on
the allowance of claims of dally papers
fur publishing constitutional amend
ments. ,.A conference committee ap
pointed to grapple with the question
recommended appropriating 11,200 for
the Journal and lice, and $000 eoeh for
the Beatrice Express. Nebraska City
Press, Plattsmouth News, Norfolk
News, and Editor Geddes of Grand Inl
and, The recommendation was agreed
to. ' '
Mossy for Mew Uulldlngi.
The session lust closed appropriated
more money for new buildings than
former sessions, but it is the belief of
tutimbers that buildings were necessa-
: ry and that there will be something to
how for the expenditures In after
veitrs.

News of the Week
There has been another week of almost
continuous slaughter and fighting lu
the Philippines. The discipline, the
courage and the flgbtiug ability of the
volunteers continues at the highest
mark and Is attracting thj attention of
the whole world. Hut stiil the question
is: What is it all lor?
As during tbe previous week tbe ob
ject of the campaign was not attained.
Malalos was taken, but the insurgent
army was neither taken prisoners or
d'telroyed. Aguiualdo retreated a little
further Into tbe interior, Is throwing up
new lines of entrenchments and Is pre
paring for further reelstonce, The end
of the war Is no more In sight than It
was at the beginning of the fighting.
There Is no present prospect of there
turn of tbs voluof ere.in fact It has been
ofHclally announced at Washington that
they cannot be spared. Bo far tbey
have been called npou to do the prin
cipal part of the fighting.
The Cuban Assembly has at last dis
solved and will turn over tbe rolls of
the Cuban army to General Ilrooke.
This seems to settle the difficulty about
the pay mini t of tho Cuban army aud tbe
f'l.OOO.OOO tbot has been lying on a
transport for some time in tbe Havana
harbor will now be distributed.
The latest advices from Porto lllco
Indicate that affairs there have quieted
down. 0n Henry Is still proving to be
tho right man la the right place,
City elections have been held In several
states during tbe week but their politi
