The populist editors who have made
uch a long, hard fight in thin state, all
had, some remark to make after the
election. Here are a few of them:
There won't be any more "per M. B,
Roese" now. Crete Democrat.
The magnificent victory in Nemaha
county is duo in a very large degree to
We perfect organization of the party,
and this is due to the splendid work of
J. S. McCart.y chairman of the demo
cratic county central committee, and K.
as. ljuackenbush chairman of the popu
list committee. Never was there a bet
ter organization or more effective work
in a campaign in the county and Messrs
McCarty and Quackenhush are resjion
nible for it. The fusionists of Nemaha
county are surely to be congratulated on
electing their candidates to the four
principal offices treasurer, county clerk,
county superintendent and bheriff,
JMemana Herald.
No defaulter or mis user of public
funds can hold office in Nebraska except
in Omaha, That a the reason the law

Will our friends from Missouri and
Kansas, editors from the Tunes and Ex
press please toll us when the funerul
rites of the fusion party in Nebraska
will bo held? Beatrice News.
A fusion of ripe peaches, sugar and
cream makes a savory combination.
Fusion isn't bad there. Likewise a
fusion of silvor republicans, silver demo
crats and silver populists makes a whole
Horue combination that will redound to
our mutual benefit Minden Courier.
About twelve ier cent of the ballots
showed no voto for supreme judge.
Many other officers were also skipped by
the voters and the ballot is conceded to
be the most complicated and unwieldly
one ever designed. Holt County Demo
crat The entire fusion ticket has been
elected in Adams county by an increased
majority ranging from IS) to 500. Time
will not permit of a detailed statement
but we will give an official return next
week. Wonder if they will ever say now
that Bryanisin is dead. Oh, ye mud
slingers, bettor ring off on your dirty
work and join the imps and be good.
People of Nebraska are sick of boodleisui
and bribery. Hastings Public Journal.
Tuesday was Holcomb day in Nebras
ka and the corn huskers sowed ballots to
uphold Billy Bryan. Blair Republican.
Again there is rejoicing as to the man
ner of campaign. The fusionists held
meetings in every township in Valley
county, and at all times pointed to the
principles we were striving for, while
ihe opposition carried on a hand-to-hand
campaign, each one for himself. So the
result is not only a victory but an en
dorsement of the principles of the re
form parties, by raising the majority on
the head of the ticket sixty over that of
last year. Ord Weekly.

After all the bluster and blow of a
couple of middle of the road populists
at lk'aver Crossing tho fusion county
ticket was elected by a larger majority
than two years before.- Seward Independent-Democrat
The sweeping victory of tho peoples
party is plain evidence that thinking
men no longer submit humbly to bping
slandered for no other reason than the
expression of their own opinions, differ
ing from those outlinod by the republi
can party. Charges must be sustained
ly facts in order tochange the impression
thatone faction entertains for another.
But notwithstanding all the evidence
against their lying tactics, they persisted
in abuse of the people's party up to the
day of election and made ono of the
dirtiest campaigns ever known in tho
history of the state.- St. Paul Press.
The magtificent victory won in the
slate of Nebraska is of transcendent 1111
portanee and signillcance upon the fu

The Nebraska republican politician

Nebraska is herself again. From off

Judge Iloleotub's majority in Adams
county is 374, a bigger majority than he
ever got as governor. This is a fair an
swer to the slanderous malignity of the
State Journal and its gang of editorial
character assassins.- Adams County
Democrat
The expression of sentiment in Ne
braska is clear-cut and unmistakeable.
The state by a majority of nearly 20,000
declares itself opposed to the present
war and against the policies and princi
ples of the present administration gen
erally. Bryan is the ideal of the state as
the leader and presidential candidate
for 1900. Cedar Itapids Outlwk.
In the work of wresting Nebraska from
the control of the republicans Charley
Nownes has given more time and money
than any democrat who voted against
him last Tuesday. For ten years he has
supported democratic nominees when
ever the contest came to a show-down
between democrats and republicans.
And this; democrats, is the reward you
give for honest effort in behalf of your
political principles. Say, democrats, you
who were seduced by the siron son of
the republican choristers, are you not
just a little bit ashamed of yourselves
this morning? Papillion Times.
' It must be borne in mind that Ne
braska thoroughly imbued with popu
lism when the reform party first sprang
into oxistence, and the republicans have
not had a majority m the state since
when a full vote was polled. The popu
list administrations of the state have
managed wisely and judiciously, in
striking contrast to the boodleism and
embezzlements of the preceding repub
lican administrations. The supreme
court was becoming too partisan and the
majority or the people, having great con
fidenco in Holcomb their candidate for
supreme judge, determined to place him

Republican mud slingers never

of abuse and hateful outbursts would
act as a lioomerang and sink them still

The fusion forces of Polk county have

to ask for duty in the Philippines, is

the Philippines as chaplain of the Cali

A Good Joke,
The election went off very quietly at
this place. The republican majority of
160 in the city of Aurora was wiped out
by giving W. Z. Pollard, fusionist candi-
nate for sheriff, eight majority, F. W.
Hammond, fusion candidate for treas
urer, six majority and Tim McCarthy,
fusion candidate for superintendent of
public instruction, six majority.

he discovered that the ballot had been
marked for Silas A. Holcomb, and he re
ported that the ballots had been tamp
ered with. He telegraphed to republi
can headquarters at Aurora to the effect
that the news was communicated to the
county clerk. The county clerk wired
the election board at Marquett, asking
if the ballots had been broken. They
replied that the seals were not broken
till after the polls were opened.
Then the Iward sent to the Marquett
bank and got a magnifying glass, and
when placed on tho marked ballot, or
supposed marked ballot; by this ex-commissioner,
to his surprise it was discov
ered that it was a stain of a straw in the
ballot.
Mr. H. D. H. did not hear the last of
his straw stained ballot during the day.
even tho littio boys of the town of Mar

straw ballot. It-is still a good joke after
the returns of the election are known in

that was the doctor in the insane asy

The newly elected mayors of Syracuse,

loyal to the democratic ticket in 18'.tG.
They were among its hardest workers for

Hon. Richard W. Sherman of Utica was
untiring in his efforts for the success of
the ticket and Major Hall of Oswego,

The fusion judicial ticket in this dis
trict was defeated by small majorities
through tho treachery of the county
clerk of Douglas county, who put the
name of C. R. Scott with the seven fu
sion judges. This was in direct opposi
tion to tho law, which says that each
party should be separated from the oth
er party one-fourth of an inch. As a re
sult, over 2,000 ballots were thrown out
in Douglas county because the hasty fu
sion voter voted for eight instead of sev
en. The fusion party tried to get this
ballot straightened out before election
but as all the judces were republicans
and on the ticket and the tnck was in
their favor, they refused to have any

received practically no encouragement

that the populists elected to office this
year are pledged to follow the advice of

decessors have, we hereby announce
that until the party is reorganized and

Increasing Taxation.
The authorities at "Washington con
tinually increase taxation without the
consent or aid of congress. They do it
just in the same way that the courts
have usurped the legislative and execu
tive powers of the government, that is
by new interpretations of the laws. If
the administration vrants a few more
million it has an attorney general who
makes a new interpretation of some sec
tion of the law creating the war taxes
and the thing is done, Neither the con
gress nor the people have, any thing to
say about it. The following taken from
a New York paper shows flow it is done
and who pays the taxes in the end.
"The government proposes to collect a
war tax on call loans of twenty-five cents
for each $r00 on amounts more than
1,000. Those who are not interested in
Wall Street can have no idea of the ut
ter ruin this will bring to hundreds of
brokers.
This tax will amount to 18 per cent w
year, and no broker can afford to pay it.
I would like to know who is responsible
for this tax and why it is levied to such
au absurd amount on call loans alone.

To this the editor replied:
"This tav is a rather late interpreta
tion by the government of the war reve
nue tax law. In any event, its justice
will be a matter for the next congress to,
settle.
"If congress upholds the interpretation
we venture to say that the banks will
not close their doors by reason of it
"As in the case of ail human taxation,
the burden of it will ultimately fall upon
the poor man.
"The banker will refuse to bear it, and
will require tho broker to pay it. The
broker will require hi,s customer to
stand it. The customer, in order to get
even on the deal, will call upon his em
ployees to sillier a reduction in wages.

Wherever the republican party has
long held sway in any of the states, the
most horrible corruption exists. New

there seems to be no way rf reformation
without something like a revolution.
Ballots are bought and sold there like
any other article of merchandise. There
is no such thing as a secret ballot in the
state. This is a statement that can be
fully substantiated, no honest man will
deny. In support -of it we produce a
recent statement of John Wanemaker,
ex-cabinet minister and a leading repub
lican of the state. He says:

New York, Nov. 9 Andrew Carnegie
and Mrs. Carnegie were passengers on
the White Star steamer Oceanic, which
arrived at' her pier today from Liverpool.
Speaking of the present war between
England and the Boers, Mr, Carnegie
said:
"The war against the Boers is most in
famous and unjust, and it was brought
about by England's lust for domain and
is on a par with our attack on the poor
Filipinos. These two attacks are a dis
grace to both branches of our race.
"The people in the Transvaal and the
Orange Free State have a right to rule
themselves. One war is an attack on an
existing and the othar on an embryonic
republic.
"It is worse for us to attack the Fili
pinos than for England to attack the
15oers, for we fall from a greater height,
as we believe in government by the con
sent of the governed.
"The best men in England have spoken
against the war in the Transvaal and
everywhere it is deplored except by
those whoso interests are served by it.
They are a small clique of jingoes, head
ed by a statesman, I am sorry to say,
who sees in the war a chance to fortify
his position."
