The principles of populism are not
dead and will not die so long as the
principles of justice and human equal
ity live, but the populist party as such
has probably run Its course and done
Its work. It had a grand mission. It
was born to be a great force for politi
cal education, and to be the forerun
ner of a movement that in God's good
time Is to regenerate the nation The

Since McKIn!ey's re-election the
Standard Oil company's stocks have

An Omaha correspondent says: ."In
the near future the headquarters of
the republican state central committee
will be removed to Lincoln and will
become a permanent political fixture
of the capital city. The committee
has decided to keep its organization
running all the year around, while it
remains In power at least. Especially
13 this considered needful In order to
keep Nebraska in the republican col

Hereafter we shall waste very little
sympathy on strikes made by union
labor. The effectual place to strike is
at the ballot box, but there the united
labor vote, with honorable exceptions,
was given to their oppressors. They
have made their political bed with
their taskmasters. Hereafter let us
hear no more complaint when the din
ner pail becomes light Saunders
County New Era.
The newspapers of England and
British statesmen are in ecstasies of
enthusiasm over the election of Mc
Kinley and Roosevelt, Baying "they
are just the kind of men we want."
In fact. Englishmen are crowing more
over Bryan's defeat than are their al
lies in this country. A republican
preacher in San Francisco since elec
tion gloatingly declares this "govern-
ment'is a crown colony of the queen,
and this promises to, be literally true
if the administration can make it so.
The Democrat.
My son, never array class against
class. It is a great wrong. When J.
D. Rockefeller makes $9,000 in one
minute, it ' Is wrong for you to com
plain because you don't make so much
in a life-time. Remember that if we
did not have Mr. Rockefeller and other
such men to furnish capital, this coun
try would be a vast wilderness instead
of a civilized land as now. You should
study your Bible and learn that God
first created capital and then made a
man to work for it In order that he
might buy what he had produced byt
the labor of his hands. Jefferson
County Journal.

It is amusing to hear those who de
serted the democratic party and voted
with the republicans talk of reorgani
zation. The kind of reorganization
they want is to kick out those who
have been loyal and put themselves in
as leaders. The Trenton Leader.
It's a sad commentary on Nebraska
people that they will turn down one of
their number for the office of governor,
a man as clean and upright as Gov.
Wm. A. Poynter, and elect a banker
of the class of Dietrich. We doubt
whether there is a respectable farmer
in Polk county who would have plead
guilty to having voted for Dietrich if
he knew the character of the man. Re
publicans have talked long and loud
about populist blight upon Nebraska,
but they have certainly done their
best to bring down criticisms upon
their own heads in the election of a
man like Dietrich over one like Poyn
ter. Polk County Democrat.
The principles embodied in the plat
forms on which William J. Bryan ac
cepted the nomination are right. His
defeat does not take away from those
platform an iota of American spirit.
These principles will be held sacred
by an American people forever, who,
although defeated at present, will not
relax their energies until every ar
ticle in the constitution is the law of
this nation once more. The New Era
Standard.
There should be no hanging back
on the part of those who have cast
their votes for standing armies, im
perialism and war. The party that
can look unmoved on the extermina
tion of the Boer republics could vote
for their neighbors children to do that
which in their hearts they have no
courage to do. They welcome the
speculations growing out of an un
holy strife, but have no desire on the
part of the majority to risk their own
lives. Keith County News.
The average girl of the present day
is of few ideas and full of nonsense,
says an exchange. She appeareth upon
the street clad in much fine raiment,
and hunteth up a beau at whose ex
pense she drinketh soda water until
the setting of the sun. She cheweth
gum in the morning, and when the
evening approacheth, lo, she is still
chewing. She getteth the notion into
her head that she can sins: she war-
bleth until her father becometh an
habitual drinker, and the neighbors
get out an injunction. She goeth forth
to a party gowned in a dress that is
too short at the top and too long at
the bottom, and giggleth until the
night waxeth old. She lieth abed until
the eleventh hour, while her mother
humps around and does the house
work. She sigleth for a husband with
a long moustache and plenty of money,
but finally marrieth some fellow who
smoketh cigarettes and holdeth up two
fingers to the barber when he getteth
a shave. Holt County Independent. -
The g. o. p. will pass no anti-polygamous
measures during the next, four
years. The republican leaders made
an agreement with the Mormon church
in Utah that no legislation on the sub
ject will be enacted. In return the
Mormon church delivered her vote to
McKinley. Polygamy, one of the rel
ics of barbarism, flourishes in Utah,
in parts of Wyoming and Idaho and

Proposal For Bryan
Editor . Independent: The Denver
Post has offered Mr. Bryan $10,000 a
year for his services and he has de
clined. Here is an offer that the Post
should make and that Mr. Bryan
should accept.
It should give him the $10,000 yearly
to station himself at Washington to
watch, up congress and do exactly for
the democracy what Rev. Dr. Wilbur
F. Crafts does in Washington for the
church reformers. The Post could
have abundant work printing his re
ports and able press writers in the
ranks of the dmocracjf could force
themselves on the republican congress
man and prevent much unwise legisla
tion -
In fact, Mr. Bryan," if he knew the
possibilities of sucha ! situation and
wanted to patriotically serve his coun
try, could accomplish as much as if

he had been elected to the presidency.
If Mr. Bryan will not accept this sit
uation, we want a few men who will.
I have played this game single-handed
against undesired measures in my own
state legislature and have killed many
a bill. The power of the pen thus
directed is immense. Of course, if no
body .will do anything unless high
honors and big money is forthcoming,
then we must abide under the thumb
of the party that deals especially in
them. FRANCIS B. LIVESEY.

vented the crushing of McPeters. A
small opening at one side permitted
the carrying on of conversation and a
two-inch rubber hose was let down
to convey water and food, to the im
prisoned man.
McPeters finally extracted himself
from the broken boards, but as he
gained his feet and stood erect an
other fall ' of sand buried him to the
neck. , He got the end of the hose to
his mouth, when again came a cave-in
and the top of his head was two feet
below: the surface of 4 the sand. The
rubber tube gave him air. and water
and food were poured in when he
asked for them." ,
A second well .was completed oy the
rescuers and a tunnel was cut to the
shaft in which McPeters was a pris
oner. The walls of the' tunnel were
boarded up and the sand dug away un
til the man was released.
Dangerous Folly
If our object in building a navy Is
for purely defensive purposes, ,the
navy Is certainly increasing as rapidly
as need be for legitimate uses. Ow
ing to the position of the United States
she does not need to be burdened with
the crushing expense of a hugn navy
unless imperialistic ventures are also
on the program. There is no more
reason for maintaining a good navy
than for having a large army in this
country, because millions of men
would spring to the country's defense
in the hour of need, while it requires
years to build a modern warship. The
policy of running a race with Ger
many, France or England, in building
an enormous navy, is sheer foly, and

It is dangerous folly. The possession
of a formidable navy provides an ir
resistible temptation to use It, aad It
also furnishes an excuse for saddling
the country with war taxes. An over
grown navy owned by a peaceful coun
try Is an evil in itself, and it brings
menace of still greater evils in its
train.
The policy of this country should be
to build a navy large enough for de
fense, and then stop, regardless of
what France, Germany, Russia, Eng
land, or any other nation is doing or
intends to do. If our purposes are
pacific, we shall not need a great navy;
and if we are attacked we shall be
gafe. The Imperialistic fever which
has infected the navy board should be
suppressed. Philadelphia Ledger (Re

A dispatch which was printed in all
the papers from San Francisco says
that Prof. Edward A. Ross, head of
tbe department of economics In Stan
ford university, has been compelled to
resign by order of Mrs. Jane Stanford,
widow of the founder of the university.
This was because the professor spoke
against coolie immigration and in
favor of city ownership of water and
gas plants and street railways. Mrs.
Stanford is a large employer of Chi
nese and Japanese. Ross was recently
given a medal by the international In
stitute of sociology. He is 35 years
old and has made a reputation by hia
work In economics. Mrs. Stanford
thought his views might Injure stocks
she held. .. ?
