dy
Eagland. headed by John Burns, de
nounce Joe Chamberlain and his war
as fiercely as the populists do McKin
ley aad his war. The Independent has
no hard words for the English people,
but It deaouaces that gang of English
pirates aad plutocrats who hold the
government, and who, if they are not
soon overthrown, will wreck It, ItIs
la the Interest of the English people
that The Independent denounces the
policy of Joe Chamberlain. It Joins
with tae producers of England, her
scholars and thinkers, in their effort to
sae their government from destruc
tion and a debt that will send more
than one-tenth of her population into
the condition that General Boothe calls
'the submerged tenth.'
England has a war on her hands
In Afghanistan, another in South Afri
ca and still another In China. Her pro
ducers are taxed Into pauperism by the
hundred thousand every year and her
war debt mounts up by leaps and
bounds. If you will go home aad think
this matter over, you will see that The
Independent is the true friend of the
English people and the Englishmen
who denounce it are not.
Thus spoke the editor of The Inde
pendent to this angry Englishman. He
made no reply, but an hour after he
was seen standing on a corner, appar
ently in a brown study.
WILI ADVENTURERS."
The republicans constantly charge
the fusion forces with the very crimes
that they are committing themselves.
1 They say that the reform forces want
to upset everything; that they want
i to make changes that endanger the
j welfare of society. It is the republi
cans who are tne innovators, who
changed our financial policy aad made
it. or tried to make it, conform to that
of Great Britain? It was the repuhli
can party. Who wants to make a
change from a small standing army to
a large one? The republicans. Who
want to change from greenback money
to promises to pay by the banks? The
republicans. Who want to changi
from the doctrine of government by
the consent of the governed to the doc
trine that we will "give them the best
government that they are capable of
enjoying?" The republicans. Who
want to change everything that wu
have known and revered and to start
out on unknown seas without chart or
compass? The same republicans. They
are the Inovators, the destroyers. It
is they who want to experiment, to
try new theories never tried before.
The reform forces are the conservative
class. It is the republicans who are
the wild adventurers.
THREE SENATORS.
The folly of keeping men in the
United States senate after they have
arrived at an age when they ought to
be sitting by their firesides wrapped
in flannels, has three conspicuous ex
amples at the present time. First,
there is Senator Hoar. Hi3 mental
powers do not seem to be greatly
dimmed, but he is utterly incapable of

disassociating himself from the bonds
of a party, which he himself declares
has entered on a policy that will end
in the overthrow of this republic. His
early training made him a lover of
liberty and its influence is still heard
in hjs words, but the whole of his ac
tive life has been devoted to building
up a party, which has now forsaken ths
very principles that gave it life and
being in his old age. Senator Hoar
cannot muster the energy that will
enable him to shake himself loose
from it. If Senator Hoar were forty,
instead of eighty years old, his course
would be very different under the pres
ent circumstances.
Second, the 3 is Senator Stewart, a
man of entirely different temperament
and training. For thirty years he has
lived in Washington entirely separated
from the people who elected him, only
going back to Nevada for a short visit
once in two or three years. He has
become entirely out of touch with the
people. He was a famous silver cham
pion because his state was unanimous
ly for silver. He was never an econo
mist and he knew little of the prin
ciples underlying all systems of money
until 1893. Then he took up the
study and became somewhat familiar
with some phases of it. He is very
old. He is surrounded with the mili
tarism of Washington and completely
out of touch with the common people.
He will perhaps never return to Ne
vada. All his property and all his in
terests are in and around Washington
and not in Nevada. Of late he has
been overcome with the military spirit
that pervades all Washington and is
for imperialism out and out If Sen
ator Setwart were forty, instead oS
eighty, he would look at matters with
different eyes.
Third, there is Senator Morgan oi
Alabama. He has been in the senate
and house ever since the war. His
home is also in Washington, although
he goes more often to his state thav
Senator Stewart. He has such a hold
upon the politics of his state that he
will be returned to the senate without
opposition, although nine-tenths of his
constituents are not in accord with his
views upon current events. He repre
sents the old south, not the new. Ha
is a military man and his sympathies
are with that class. lie Is also for im
perialism. These men are in the senate be
cause it is almost impossible under
our present plan of electing senators
by the legislatures to oust a senator
who is a genial man and who has some
knowledge of human nature as long
as his party is in power in his state.
A senator can keep a watch and con
stantly confer favors upon men who
are likely to become members of the
legislature. He thus binds them to
himself. But if he had to go before
the people at the end of his term rmd
make a contest there, instead of be
fore a legislature, the case would be
very different. If senators were elected
by the people, neither Senators Mor
gan, Hoar or Stewart would have held
their places so uninterruptedly. Of
the three, Hoar would be the more
likely to have done it.
Long residence in Washington, away
from the people, is not a fit environ
ment for a United States senator. If
elected by the people they would re
main more of the time in their states,
where their environment would be en-
tlrely different. The election of sena
tors by the people is one of the vital
reforms that must be enacted If we
keep this government in the paths
laid down by the revolutionary fathers.
A VICIOUS LIAR.
William E. Curtis of the Chicago
Record is a vicious liar. He can He
with more venom than any other man
in the United States. In the Record of
August 22, Curtis said:
"The reason Mr. Schurz did not ap
pear at tbe anti-imperialist confer
ence at Indianapolis was because there
was no fund to pay his expenses and he
never pays his own."
It Is well known that Mr. Schurz
was at that time attending the funeral
of his son who died in Europe and
whose body was brought to this coun
try on a trans-Atlantic steamer. All
the facts were published in the news
papers and Mr. Curtis knew them at
the time he wrote this venomous lie.
The facts were also known in the Rec
ord office before the lie was published
in that paper, wnlch makes the manag
ing editor of that paper equally respon
sible with the viper who wrote it. The
question is: Will the Record continue
to publish the lies of this malicious
degenerate during the campaign?
There are a few thousand people who
take the Record who would like to
know, so that they may govern them
selves accordingly. An ordinary citi
zen do not want to put a paper in his
family where its most prominent col
umn is written up daily by a vile de
generate of the character of the man
who will write such a lie as the above.
Neither death, family affection, the
grief of a father or any other quality
that generally moves a human being
has any affect upon a creature like
Curtis.
Friday, September 7, has been set
aside as travelling men's day at the
state fair and the knights of the grip
will prepare some special features for
that day's program that will attract
a crowd.
THE STATE FAIR.
The 'only thing now . remaining to
make the 1900 state fair they greatest
event in tne history of the society is
a week' of good weather. The entries
of live stock cover a wider range than
ever before and the space in all the
department exhibits will be fully occu
pied. All the latest improved farm
machinery and Implements will ap
pear, and taken in connection with a
show of. the great material resources
of Nebraska farms It will make an
exhibition that can profitably be
studied for a week. There are going
to be a road full of good horses on ex
hibition, including all classes from the
fast trotters and pacers to the dignified
and muscular draught animals. The
state horticultural society will have
the best exhibit, and one day will be
given over to a test of Nebraska fruit
by all who care to partake of home
grown apples, pears, peaches, grapes,
etc. The florists are going to make a
display which will open the eyes of
thousands as to the possibilities of Ne
braska soil and sunshine to produce
wonderful luxuries of growth in a har
mony of colors. There will be plenty
of good music and other free enter
tainment at the grounds during the
week, and we feel sure that any reader
of The Independent will be fully repaid
for making a visit to the state fair,
whether it be for one day or the en
tire week.
To all of our subscribers and their
friends we extend a hearty invitation
to visit The Independent and inspect
our printing plant, which is in itself
an exhibit worthy or the attention of
anyone, being the most complete and
rapid newspaper outfit in the west.
A little while ago Roosevelt was con
tinually denouncing the Filipinos as
savages. Of late he has stopped that
sort of diversion and gone to denounc
ing everybody who disagrees with him
as cowards. Before he gets through
with it he may find the latter diversion
not as pleasant as the former. It was
a safe business to denounce a people
7,000 miles away. In regard to the
savagery of the Filipinos, General Joe
V heeler gave some important testi
mony in a speech before the Chicago
university students the other day. He
said:
"I was very glad to be Informed that
there are gentlemen here studying with
the view of permanently exercising
tueir professions as ..teachers in the
islands of the Pacific They will find
there bright, anxious pupils. The cli
mate Is charming and; healthf uL Col
leges of a high order are maintained, in
Manila and other , lare cities, and in
every city I entered I. found a school-
house, with desks and seats quite like
the school houses in this .country. The
men with whom I came in contact and
had business relations wrote well and
seemed to be fairly well educated."
A queer kind of savagery is that.
Doubtless they should submit to any
kind of government that a cowboy
Roosevelt would see fit "to give them."
Frank Carpenter, after giving a very
long detailed list of the extortionate
taxes levied on the people of Manila
by the orders of our Emperor William
McKinley, says: "There is a tax here
on the butcher, the baker and the can
dlestick maker. The barber pays so
much every three montbs, and this is
so with many other tradesmen. There
is not a man or a woman doing busi
ness in Manila who is not taxed, and
even the market peddler who brings
in a basket of vegetables has to pay
her toll before she can selL" There
Is taxation without representation with
a vengeance. No wonder the republi
can spell binders are denouncing the
Declaration of Independence with all
the vigor that ever old George III. did.
One of the causes of the degenera
tion of the masses is the large space
given in the daily papers to detailed
descriptions of brutal prize fights.
They devote columns and in some
cases whole pages to these disgusting
exhibitions of brutality. It produces
demoralization and is one of the ele
ments at the bottom of riots and blood
shed. The ministers seem to have
quit denouncing them and many in
stead devote their sermons to the ad
vocacy of international prize fights,
called wars, to advance civilization,
The devil is having a high old time
of it these days, as he sees things go
ing almost universally his way.

HARDY'S COLUMN
Consistency Ice Trusts Nigger in
Ohio Landslide Minnesota Mix
the Boards More Republican Purity.
How inconsistent in Senator Hoar
to reject Bryan because he influenced
congress to ratify tbe Paris treaty ana
kiss McKinley for putting the treaty
through.
The ice trust, about which the re
publicans are so awfully scared, will
soon thaw, then soon after, nature will
supply the needed cold witnout trust
or corporation. Not so with other
trusts, they do not thaw, neither does
nature come between tnem and tne
consumer.
The neonle of President McKinley's
state are no more friendly to the col
ored man than those of tne soutn. At
Airrnn the other day they had a big
mob because the authorities moved a
colored prisoner to Cleveland for safe
keeping until tbe day oi trial. i;ne
rmmtv buildines were burned down,
several persons were killed and many
more wounded. At last an army or
cnidiprs were called to auiet the row.
McKinley republicans can be just as
mean in Ohio as Bryan democrats in
Georgia.
Tt. is reported there Is a general land
slide in the state of New York and that
Brvan will carry the state by a hun
dred thousand. It should be remem
bered that over three nundred thou
sand voters stayed at home four years
ago and did not vote at all. Now If
two-thirds of them are democrats and
vote for Bryan this year, where will
the state go? Look out for sometMng
to drop.
The nlan that has been adopted in
several of the southern states to cut
nff lenorant colored roters and still
let ignorant white men vote will not
hold water in any court or justice. Tne
fifteenth amendment forbids any re
strictions unon the colored voter that
is not with equal severity laid upon
the white voter. The colored man can
not be legally disf rancnised , because
his great grandfather was not a voter.
It amounts to this: you cannot vote
because your ancesters were slaves,
or because you yourself, was once a
slave.
Minnesota will in all probability give
Bryan a majority this fall. There are
more Sweedes and Germans there
than in any other state and they all
have a dislike for large armies and
annexation by conquest and force. The
present governor is of Swedish birth
Four years ago he was beaten by fraud,
but two years ago he was elected. He
is again nominated and everyone with
whom we talked said ne would be
elected again this fall and would prob
ably pull Bryan through with himself
When Commissioner Beckman was
a candidate the third time charges
of corruption, extravagance and bad
management were made against the
county board, but Mr. Beckman de-
inied voting for or sanctioning any of
the dark woolly measures. It is quite

thousand dollars that were to be paid
for walking up to tbe state house and
arranging for a loan of state school
money is a sample. It looked just as
though the commiss?oners were to
have a slice, secretly, under a cloak of
law. What we want is that both domi
nant parties should be represented on
such boards. Most of tlie states re
quire that both parties must be repre
sented on election boards. We would
not think of electing three brothers
to take charge of the county business.
We urge that every taxpayer should
vote lor JUT. outnenana. ne was a.
candidate three years ago and cut the
republican majority down half. Put
him on the board as one of the county
commissioners and he will guard the
interests of the taxpayers as a watch
dog guards the home, against thieves.
V
There was a big republican steal
planned in the latter part of the sev
enties. Stout was the penitentiary
contractor and the bargain was to take
hi3 pay in state warrants, but after
wards he planned it to get back all the
discount on the warrant at which he
sold them. He had the legislature pass
a law; he then arranged with the at
torney general, Roberts, to slide the
thing through. It was easy to see
why to those who wanted to see, but a
fine span of horses, new wagon and
harness was sent to Roberts' home and
Stout paid for them. But an honest
lawyer stepped in and took the matter
out of Roberts hands and the tax
payers were saved.
There was much talk; at the time
about the Kendall school land steal.
He was land commissioner and it was
said he had all the school land bought
up so when anyone wanted any of the
lands they had to pay him or his land-
grabbers a good plump bonus. It is
known that thousands of dollars were
made out of the bonified settlers.
About the same time or a little be
fore Auditor Liedtke skipped with five
or six thousand dollars of the people's
money. He did not have the grit to
stay for a trial. Also about the same
time Treasurer Hill put beyond the
reach of the taxpayers $236,000. It
could all have been applied on the
state debts or put into county or Unit
ed States bonds where every penny
would have been safe, but in that case
the treasurer would not have been
able to put the interest into his own
pocket. That has neen the trouble
with all our city, county and state
treasurers, instead of paying debts,
the money has been loaned out and the
treasurer pocketed the interest.
We know we now have a Lancaster
county treasurer who pays off the
county debts as fast as he gets the
money and we also know that he has
not a single dollar . loaned out. Sink
ing funds should be used to buy in
the debts that are not yet due even if
a premium to the fun amount of in
terest is paid. Money is safe when
applied on debts. The Tosses in Lan
caster county counts up Into the many
thousands, and the county has been
under republican rule until the first
of this year. The penitentiary has
been a great rat hole" for republican
thieves. This was known to the party
in power, so when they come to extend
the walls and build more sells they
thought to let the convicts do the
most of the work. So they appointed
Dorgan to buy the material and s

perintend the work. One item will
show the ability of the appointed agent
of the state. A large Quantity of stone
was needed, so Instead of buying of
the quarry men, who had stone to sell,
he bought of a man who never so much
as knew where stone came from. It
turned out in court that Dorgan paid
him $15,000 more than he paid the
quarry men. That money was un
doubtedly divided among the official
bosses of the party. That way of do
ing took not less than fifty thousand
dollars out of the taxpayers. The
other state institutions were run in
like manner. The Lincoln asylum for
the Insane burned over a hundred car
loads of coal in the month of July.
Other supplies were consumed in like
proportion. At the last, the party gave
birth to a pair of twin thieves, Joe
Bartley and Eugene Moore. One stole
$552,000 and the other $22,000. The
party has had no further power of
procreation. But their best leaders
who are not in prison are in the em
ploy of McKinley doing the same dirty
work. Tom Cook, who stuffed the cen
sus of this state two hundred thousand
in 1890, is now one of the fattest of Mc
Kinley's kittens.
Now, farmers and honest taxpayers.
do you want to turn the state back
into the hands of such men, in such
a party? If you do, and enjoy paying
taxes that thieves may steal all you
have to do is to vote the republican
ticket.
A NEW INSTITUTION.
Rohrbough Bros., the well-known
proprietors of the Omaha Commercial
and Business college ,have opened a
new school in the Brace block. Fif
teenth and O streets, Lincoln, Neb.
Gregg shorthand and the Mosher sys
tem of touch typewriting will be
taught. While Gregg Shorthand is
comparatively a new system In the
west, it has been taught in almost all
the leading business colleges through
out the eastern and middle states for
many years. It Is claimed for the new
system that it possesses all the good
points of the old systems and can be
learned in much shorter time. The
system has but one position, one slant
and no shade; it is easier to .write and
easier to read. It is claimed for the
new system of touch typewriting that
the operator can do more accurate
work and reach a working speed of
from 90 to 120 words per minute. "Im
provement is the order of the age."
Welcome the "light line system" of
shorthand. Welcome the new system
of touch typewriting; if by means of
these, time, labor and expense in mas
tering them can be saved.
