It la explained in Washington that the troubles in China have caused a scarcity of Mexican silver dollars in. Manila and throughout the Philip pine, it being estimated that only al-out 40,000.000 remain. The demand has raised the price of the pieces to Zl cents. To meet tie demands and alto to provide a currency that will te acceptt-u by the Filipinos and be entirely practicable, the secretaries of war and the treasury have decided upon an "insular dollar." the coin age to be conducted upon one of the two plans suggested. In this the United States follows the example of Great Dritain and France, which for several years have been coining silver dollar for their Oriental trade. Den ver News. Nebraska's Growth Editor Independent Lincoln peo ple, like all others in Nebraska, are trying through the papers to explain the apparent decrease in population as hown by the last census as compared with that of 18i0 made by the g. o. p. enumerators giving Omaha and Lin coln aueh decreased population. If the 1S00 census is compared with the cen sus of 1SS5. taken by George Lane, they will find cause for congratulation in a healthy and natural increase. In HK Lincoln had barely 20,000. and now. fifteen yeara later, she has dou bled that number. The same result will appear all over the state. The census taken by George Lane had too much at atake to permit any monkey ing with the figures, either to stuff or decrease the population. Who can say that there was not some method in the madness In reducing the number of people as returned bv the last census? AN OBSERVER. Lincoln. Neb.. Dec. 8. 1900.

The office force of Uncle Jake Wolfe is giving him all the assis tance possible. Some gross 'irregularities at the re cent election are coming to light in the Douglas county contest cases. Only a glance at the registration books is necessary to reveal that something is wrong, and the most charitable con struction that can possibly be placed upon It Is gross carelessness. The law requires that at the close of each reg istration day the registrars shall draw a red line beneath the last registered name and then affix their signatures below that. The purpose of this red line is to show where the registration closes and to prevent the possibility of unauthorized names being added. This important provision of the law was not heeded. There are no red lines and no signatures to indicate where the legitimate registration ceased. In this way 100. 200, 500 or even 1.000 names might be added. The work was so bunglingly executed that in many instances the registration fig ures are out of all proportion to the voting strength of the respective pre cincts. This feature of the contest has not yet been entered into thor oughly, but the attorneys for the con testants are coming to it as rapidly as possible, and some highly interesting developments are expected. Governor Poynter"has been asked by the American Transvaal league to take steps toward securing assistance for the Boers, who are represented as hav ing been driven from their homes by the British army. Samuel A. Calhoun, who signs, himself secretary of this league, with headquarters in Chicago, has sent the governor the copy of an alleged order issued in July by the British commander. The order re quires all Transvaalers to lay down their arms or their property will be taken and their families turned from their homes. Mr. Calhoun suggests that if notice of this is brought to the people of Nebraska they will petition j:he governor to issue a proclamation calling for donations for these people. THANKS.

Could anything better illustrate the paralyzing influence of imperialism? W. J. Bryan. Talking Populism Once in a great, while some pluto cratic journal down east - gets away from its partisan, insanity for axfew minutes, and always the editor under such conditions writes populism. Here is a specimen from the Phila delphia Record. "Ther are sixteen counties in Penn sylvania . which -.the census returns show have less population in 1900 than they had in 1890. There are six teen other counties in each of which the increase of population . has been less than 1,000. None of these thirty two counties contains large towns. The main industry of the inhabitants is farming. . "The same conditions are shown -by the census returns for New York state. Twenty-two of the farming counties in that commonwealth show a loss of population since 1890, and in each of five others the gain was less than 1, 000. None of these ' counties contain large towns. - "The gain of 19.8 per cent in the population o Pennsylvania and of 21.1 per cent in : the population of New York state has been made nearly al together in the urban and manufac turing districts. The drift is city ward; the towns grow; the strictly rural populations dwindle. Men and women go where life is most attrac tive. It . may be " easier to : subsist in town than In the country; but that, is not a desirable state of things. Gold smith's celebrated plaints , is as true now as when he .wrote, it: ;. , " '111 fares the land, to hastening ills a prey. " . Where wealth accumulates, and men decay.' - ; "It is the duty of statesmen to con sider how far bad legislation has been responsible for , the hard conditions which make farming in - the eastern and middle states of the union a less and less inviting occupation." Ten years ago when a populist wrote that way, the Record called him a so cialist or anarchist, whichever hap pened to occur first to his mind, and 9. V - ,".'". A..B. C.

The Foot Bail Hero The football hero of the season and of the last five as well seems to be one Vernon White of Attleboro, Mass. It is the killed and the wounded, the bloody noses and broken ribs and legs that give zest to football and the one that can show the most wounds and broken limbs is the hero. Mr. White can without doubt make, good his claim to the title. The following is his record : 1895 Left leg broken above knee joint. 1895 Left collarbone broken. 1895 Right ankle sprained. 1896 Nose broken twice. 1896 Back severely wrenched. 1897 Three fingers on left hand broken. 1897 Ankle broken. 1898 Rib broken. 1898 Wrist sprained. 1899 Left leg fractured and splint ered. 1900 Head severely injured? 1900 Two ribs broken. 1900 Legs temporarily paralyzed, resulting from kick. 1900 The ribs previously fractured were rebroken. (And if he keeps up his record, we might as well complete the tabulation by adding 1901 Killed.)

Moore of Lincoln is the latest aspirant for senatorial honors to shy his castor into the ring, and it is believed that the announcement of his candidacy will attract the earnest attention of other candidates and their friends. Moore is not a man to be. lightly reckoned with. If for no other reason than that he is the only millionaire of whom the Capital City can boast his claims in this connection would deserve to be mentioned with respect. But he has other strong points that count. Ex. The first great work needed in Am erican politics is to dissolve the old parties completely and clean the field from the last vestige of their ma chinery. When this is done there will be a chance for reform and moral progress, but not until then. This can only be done by a general and united movement against the old parties and the present party system as the para mount evils of the age. Cedar Rapids Outlook.
