McKinley in 1896 or who refused tefvote for Bryan, but who look upon the president's imperial course of conquest and subjection of ' unwilling people as heralding the certain downfall of the republican institution if presisted in, this platform is of exceptional inter est ;Tr4 respect to the great issue of the oampaiam. it is all that the friends of liberty could desire it charges tne re publican party under . McKinley with having- deserted American ideas and ideals and aiming at nullification of the Declaration of Independence. It takes from the republican platform of 1860 the famous plank re-asserting the doc trines of the Declaration and adopts it in full. It condemns the pending Porto Kico tariff bill as a bold and open viola tion, of the organic law and a flagrant breach of ' good ; faith a proposition to ' . 1 1 . - i . , r - : : wmcn tnousanas oi repuoucans are now riving voiee. It asserts that the consti tution follows the flag., and -.. believes adopting Lincoln's words that a nation cannot fontr endure half 'republic and half empire. It .opposes "wars of con quest and. colonial possessions.' It states the Philippine problem with , singular clarity and force, and announces a den site policy. And this plank is followed up by declarations on the general ques tion involved breathing a spirit of such high' public morality and true Ameri canism that we -would call particular attention to them. The anti-imperial cause finds in this declared Philippine policy, and in these resolutions an ex pression so full, so compact, and , so elo quently comprehensive as to - ' leave nothing to be desired." ; When a ereat newspaper like' the Springfield Republican begins to talk nat way it reany appears as tnougn tne partisan insanity of the republican fol- owing was. m a small way at least, somewhat abated. It has been the turn of the Boers in South-Africa,1 this week. They " have scored a "victory , which if it had been on the British side, would have filled column after column' of snace in the great republican dailies of this country, but as it was tne Boers - that gave the British a tremendous thrashing the Mc Kinley papers only gave the victory very small spaoi. reporting the facts that could not be hidden and that ' was all. By a magnificent . stragetic movement that would have done credit to Cronje himself, the Boers stampeded a large brce of English and : captured seven guns, a large number or prisoners ana ' w a 1 supplies. - The British own up to a loss in Killed and wounded of over two hun dred, while the Boers only lost two kill ed and four & five wounded. Another most surprising thing has happened.' " Hon. Webster Davis, assist ant secretary of : the interior has just returned from South Africa. He says he visited both - armies and made the fullest investigation the whole matter. He was so impressed with the justice of the Boer cause, that upon his return he resigned his office and will take " to the eoture platform in defense of the two ittle republics that are fighting a great empire of 400,000,000 people withi he says, -a prospect of success. ri After, send ing his resignation to the president he aye om a signed interview irom wmcn he following paragraph is taken. "When I entered the train at Pretoria, on my return home,, fully 2,000 men and women, mostly women whose husbands and fathers and sons were at the front, gathered at the station to bid me good bye, and as the tears rolled down many of tneir- iaces tney maae the last request of me that I dfi everything within my at j si e a) t . a power upon my return home t6 let .the American people . know of their exact condition ; to let them know how they had been abused and outrageously mis represented by the English. The Eng lish correspondents have no trouble in getting their dispatches., over the cable lines, as they are controlled absolutely by. the British, while it is impossible for information regarding thesituation from the Boers' standpoint to reach the Amer ican people. If I did not, as a free American, decide to listen to their ap peals; my: conscience would burn and the faces of .. .those suffering people, as brave ana noble as uod ever let live in any land, would haunt me as long as I live. I am, therefore, determined to do everything in my humble way to assist them. Their cause is just and in God is their, trust, and in the light of the past history of the American , people, who went through the same struggle, I be lieve the Boers will win." - . William the Wobler staggered around onto another position last week. - Otis tried two Filipinos by court marshall and hung them. V hen a protest was made against adopting this old Spanish meth od of dealing with them, McKinley de clared that Otis was justified because there was a state of war in the Philip pines, tie seemea to torget that he had made the statement time and again dur ing the last few months that the war was over in the - Philippines. Now we have McKinley s word for it that the war goes on, that the Filipinos have not been conquered and that what the Independent has said all the time was true, . - Some of the Mark Hanna papers have started the story that when the populist national convention meets at Sioux Falls that it will adjourn v without making a nomination or will nominate Senator Al len with the understanding that he will pull off in favor of Bryan after Bryan is nominated by the democrats, it would seem that these chaps had practiced ly mg long enough to get up a he with some plausibility to it, but this effort proves that they have not. - The following summing of losses in the army in the Philippines has been cabled Joy Ueneral Otis: . aslCl 1 T t - --oince , vonuary . SKirmisnes ; in the Philippines has been reported, mostly slight affairs. Our casualties were three officers and seventy-eight, enlisted men killed,1, thirteen officers and 151 men wounded. Insurgent and Ladrone losses in killed and left on field, 1,426; captured, mostly wounded, ,1,453; small arms se cured, 3,051; pieces of artillery, 165; large captures of other insurgent property. A number of .important insurgent officers are surrendering and the situation is gradually becoming more pacific." - xne war aepartment has granted per- I mission to General Otis to enlist native mi 1 . An interview of such an extraordinary ! character was published on Thursday morning with Admiral Dewey, no one was at first inclined to-believe it. Later dispatches, however, confirmed it. It was to the effect that tne Admiral would be a candidate for president, but that he refused to say on what .ticket he would 1 A 1 1 . .1 A republics-wvatoiaJatehSre to of Gorman, Van Wyck, and others to tret up a movement to defeat .Bryan m the democratic convention. It hardly seems reasonable that these men would undertake such a childlike performance, but we are assured upon eood authority that that is what it is. They propose to go into the convention . and say . it is Bryan against Dewey and make a great ! J 1 1. iT 11 It. noise auu uuriau uvoi uw lusttor, uieu perhaps make another bolt. News comes from Sioux Falls - that many applications are. being made for accommodations there during the populist national convention and that the prospects are that it will be by far the largest convention that the populists ever held. . During a recent skirt-dancing enter tainment in a local theater, in Havana, there .was a disnlav of 'the Ame'rican. Spanish and Cuban flags. The last two were cheered, but the American- flag was nissed. 'What respect ought to -be shown to the official opinions sent out from , the White House can be judged by the char acter of the men who are employed to manufacture those opinions. One of the chief lawyers that McKinley has is Ma- goon or ljincoin, ixerjrrasKa. . J-nat is v a - 1 mi J a what ail the eastern ' papers say, and they further relate that that great law yer first prepared an opinion backing up McKlnley's famous - message about our plain duty" to Jforto Kico: Then when the trusts swooped down on Will iam, he wobbled over to the. other side of the case and prepared another opinion declaring that the constitution did not extend to Porto Rico. ; The next thing that we hear of him is that he has been errantiner 'concessions" in Porto Rico to favored parties, and they were of such an outrageous character that the secre tary of war had to re vote- them. The papers say that this lawyer is assistant to the attorney general, and they all de clare he came from Lincoln, .Nebraska. There was a chan around here with a name something like that and he lias disappeared. But he never had any rep utation at the bar. jmow his opinions are quoted by United States senators as - -A .

Chicago Grain Market gossip and statis tics furnished by H. R. Penny & Co., 131 South 11th, Street, Lincoln, Nebr. Chicago, April 4,-The wheat market opened c. higher than the close on Monday, (Tuesday being a nonaay ),crea- ited to higher Liverpool cables, and some cron damage reports. .The St. Louis crowd and foreigners vied with each oth er this morning in buying wheat and ran the market for May wheat in Chica go up 68, or c higher than the open frior th market closing strong at 68 c. There are quite a number 01 crop dam age reports coming in trom the wheat belt, and wheat has deteriorated very much in the past week. - -' . There was very heavy buying of wheat for French account, on account of out look for the French crop beiag unfavor able. . ' The opening cables from Liverpool read: "Wheat M d higher". The clos ing cables reading: "Wheat firmer and M d higher than the opening." Cables from .fans reaa: - "Wheat 10a- 25 centimes : higher and flour 2oa40 c higher." - Clearances today, Wheat 138,933; corn 172,206; oats 396,700.

The .market moved stead ily up to 41c where it re-acted to 40c, when heavv buving orders came on the market and carried the price up to 41Jc, the market closing at 41 only be low the highest price for the day, also for several years. ... 4U cents nas been preaicted for corn for the last year, and now that it has reached that price, with the conditions as at present, 40c looks yery cheap, and corn will likely sell a good deal higher before the May option is out. Provisions were another strong feature in the market at the opening this morn ing. May pork opened on a rang a from ua.uu to f x4.zu, ana ran up to ?j.3.o or 70c per barrel higher than the close on Monday. There seemed to be much buying during the first hour, but pork gradually dropped off to $13.10 and clos ed at $13.20. With live hogs at - the present prices provisions are not likely to rail ottmuch.
