THE ATTORNEY GENERAL It 1 1 a fln Two Terme of Fierce Fight ing ia theCourta Proeecutlng lte pabllcaa Tbtevea. There has been no department of the state government that has given better satisfaction to the fusionists, and for that matter every honest man In the state than that of the attorney general's office. The thieves don't like him at all, especially the public thieves of the republican persuasion. The business of the office has been twice or three times as much as ever before, on account of the necessity of prosecuting so many republican thieves. The attorney general landed the former republican state treasurer In the penitentiary for a twenty-year term and would have had the former republican auditor there also, who ac knowledged that he had stolen $25,000, if it had not been for a. strange deci sion of a republican supreme court. He secured his convistion in the cir cuit court. He has recovered about $50,000 of stolen money and turned it into the treasury and he would have had over ?2O0,0OO more except for the action of Judee Baker. That matter is not set tled yet. Besides that Attorney General Smyth has undertaken to enforce the law against trusts and ha brought many suits which are still pending. With a republican attorney general coming into office, tte trusts are not 1HI 4 "fa 1AW3S3 PRODUCE DIRECT. Your First an tl THI9 GQOPOkj ia food for LAST SmM 4 t pret the V or id-Knowned BR.

In all his cases, the attor ney general has had to contest with the best legal ability of the state and flghtin for every Inch of ground. He has often-found himself lined up in court with five or six of the best cor poration lawyers in the state against him, any one of whom received a larg er fee for a single case than he re ceived for a whole term of service. Attorney General Smyth has been tte fighting member of the fusion firm and he has fought with such ability and success that he has won the ad miration of every populist and demo crat In the state. If the legal services which Mr. Smyth has rendered the state were paid for at the rate that such ser vices are charged by the attorneys of the state, it would amovmt to ten times as much as the state has paid him. The next attorney general will have an easy time of it. There are no em bezzlers to prosecute among the out going officials, and the trust cases on the dockets will not trouble him. They can all be disposed of with celerity. Then the attorney general's office will assume its old-time air of ease and leisure. Mr. Smyth has had able assistants in his office. For his first term Ed Smith and for his second W. D. Old ham were his deputies. Mr. Paul Pizey, a graduate of the state univer sity, has been doing much valuable technical work of late in preparing briefs and much of the hard druggery that the public knows nothing of, but which requires exactness and clear le gal insight. The attorney general's office has been a credit to the state and every honest man in the state is proud of the record that it has made. THE LABOR BUREAU The Splendid Service It Haa Rendered to Wage Worker, and in AdrertL lug the State Beaoorcea. The bureau was designed primarily to give facts pertaining to capital and labor, wages, etc., but necessity has broadened its work and made it a de partment of general information, and it is expected to answer questions con nected with every phase of industrial activity. At the present time in ad dition to the gathering of wage sta tistics, the inspection of factories, the enforcement of labor laws and laws relating to fire escapes, etc., the bureau compiles crop statistics, mort gage indebtedness, social, manufac turing and miscellaneous statistics, and operates a free employment office. It is apparent that from the first the bureau was created to appease the demands of labor and not because It was considered of any particular value. At first labor was recognized in the appointment of the deputy. Mr. John Jenkins, the first deputy, being a mem ber of the knights of labor, but later on the order became less powerful and influential, caused to a great extent by the breaking of the boom of 1890 and the panic following. At this time the policy of appointing men as de puties who were in touch or sym pathy with the labor movement seemed to have been changed, and for some time the department sems to have been out of touch with the in dustrial classes. It must be borne In mind that Ne braska is pre-eminently an agricul tural state, and the wage-workers have had but a very limited representation in the state legislature so that little could be expected in the way of means to carry out the ideas of those who were instrumental in founding the bureau. Since the foundation of the bureau several very valuable laws, advocated by the department, have been passed, and while their passage cannot be credited entirely to Its work, still the bureau was a prominent factor in their consummation. Among them were the anti-Pinkerton law designed to prevent the importation of armed men by corporations in case of strikes, the Australian ballot law, now pretty generally adopted throughout the United States, and the free-text book law, a boon indeed to the poor man having children going to school. Recently It has secured the passage of the child labor law, providing that no child under 14 years of age shall work, who has not had five months schooling in the year, the law limit ing the employment of females to ten hours per day, as well as the law pro viding that railway engineers shall not work more than eighteen consec utive hours, and the law for fire es capes, all of which follow out the rec ommendations made by the various commissioners in their several re ports. The advocacy by the bureau of manual training or technical training in schools has probably done much In the aid of Its growth and subsequent adoption by several of the institutions in the state, and its present rapid growth in the minds of the teachers and the public. A free employment department wa? added to the bureau in 1897, which has furnished positions for many worthy people, although It Is not the success it might have been had branch offices been established in the larger cities, instead of making the bureau it self an office for the whole state. One of the most valuable features of the bureau is its general statistical work, designed to give information, showing the resources of the state. These reports going as they do ta all the state bureaus and libraries of this and foreign countries are Invaluable in advertising the state. The map Is sued showing the surplus commodities marketed by the people of the state is worth more as an advertisement for the state than the whole cost of the bureau. It is to be hoped that in the future the bureau will receive more liberal treatment, and that it will be in a po sition to meet the growing demands being made upon it for information, touching the resources of Nebraska. Under the management of S. J. Kent the bureau has been most successful. The Farmers Supply Association of this city has just issued a valuable catalogue of furniture, stoves, ranges, groceries, wagons, buggies, etc., etc. in fact everything needed in the house or on the farm which they are mail ing free to all who ask for it.

The common people may sometimes seem not to appreciate the work of those who spend their lives In their defense, but this is not the case in regard to William Arthur McKeighan. They remember the long and brave fight he made for them and have erected a beautiful monument at Red Cloud, Neb., to help hand down his memory to coming generations. The words upon the monument were taken from the address delivered by W. J. Bryan at the funeral and as far as the work of McKeighan . are concerned, coming generations will bear testi mony to the truth. William Arthur McKeighan was born of Irish parents in Cumberland county, New Jersey, January 19, 1842. Died December 15, 1895, at Hastings, Neb. He removed with his parents to Ful ton county, Illinois, in 1849 where he lived on a farm and attended the com mon school; enlisted in the. Eleventh regiment, Illinois cavalry, in Septem- r -. r' 1 il S3 CaaaKt Jam U Ml - bit. Krttts ajW I, tiaVatanman aaiaa Mtiakt r IfTSSfBrrclW by the ber, 186X; at; the close of the war set tled on a farm near Pontiac, 111.; was married October 24, 1865, to Miss Lois E. Brown, , of Fulton county, Illinois. He took an active part in organiz ing the farmers association; removed to Nebraska in 1880 and settled on a farm near Red Cloud; took an active interest in organizing the alliance; was elected county judge of Webster county in 1885; in 1886 was democratic candidate for congress against Hon. James Laird and was defeated. He was again nominated by the alliance or independent party, was indorsed by the democratic convention and was elected to the Fifty-second and re elected to the Fifty-third "congress as a people's party candidate. Members of the committee who had charge of the fund and erection of thi monument to the memory of the Hon. William A. McKeighan were Hon. J. R. Thompson of Grand Island, chair man; Dr. Robert Ramerell of Red Cloud, treasurer; P. C. Larsen of Hol stein, secretary, and J. L. Miner of Red Cloud, member of the committee. The erection of the manument was completed at Red Cloud, December 10, 1900; is of dark barry granite, weighs about 15,000 pounds, thirteen and a half feet In height and is three and a half by three and a half feet square at the base. Cost $568, and is a hand some mark for the last resting place of Hon. William A. McKeighan. IMiniey a Democrat Grover Cleveland says he is the only democrat that has been elected and seated since the war and therefore he is authority and the only authority to which reference must be made to find out what democracy is. On December 22, duly copyrighted and protected by a special notice that "all persons are expressly forbidden to reprint it, either wholly or in part, an eastern weekly gives to the world an eye-opener, yclept, "The Plight of the Democracy and the Remedy, by Grover Cleveland." Inasmuch as the article is forbidden fruit to all except to the readers of the paper mentioned, and inasmuch as the paper is one not generally read by the people we6t of the Alleghenies, Jt will economize time, space and money, as well as be a blunt statement of a plain fact, to say that Mr. Cleveland's contribution is not worth two, of the five, cents for which the favored paper sells. Stripped of Its puerile platitudes and statuesque cullings from ancient state papers, it is a poorly-concealed In dorsement of imperialism, monometal lism and government by injunction; with an added assumption that these three are distinctive democratic grac es and that without them democracy can never again hope to come Into full possession of its ancient heritages. Western democrats will laugh; but beyond all doubt Mr. Cleveland in tends and expects to be taken serious ly. That he is sincere not many will believe. If Mr. Cleveland Is right in his estimate of "true democracy," and true democracy contemplates a loyal devotion to imperialism, monometal lism and government by injunction, then the aforesaid "true democracy" is mostly to be found in Mr. Hanna's political aggregation; and it has! re cently elected according to Mr. Cleve land's schedule, a "true democrat" for president. McKinley and Grover have long been members of the, same adulation socie gS1 J ; ; ty. McKinley thinks that Cleveland is an excellent republican and Cleveland thinks McKinley Is a true democrat. They would doubtless join the same political party if it were not necessary in the estimation of Wall street to keep two parties in the field, both of which could be relied upon to stand by plutocracy. If they can only man age things In that way, it would make no difference whether the democratic donkey or the republican mullet head was on top, plutocracy would be all right in either event. THE PHILIPPINE MUDDLE A Beviaion of Policy Will Stand Them up Ag-alnat a Wall In the Old Span lah Faahion and Blaze Away. General MacArthur continues to be the "enfant terrible" of the Philippine question. With appalling frankness, he blurts out truths which the admin istration at Washington and the com mission in Manila compass sea and land to conceal. To Judge Taft, in par ticular, that prophet of smooth things, it must be like a blow in the face to have the military . governor general bluntly admit in an official proclama tion that Manila itself Is the "rendez vous of the emissaries of insurrec tion." Where does this leave the cock sure pre-election predictions of Roose velt, Root, Schurmann and the rest? Looking very like exploded humbugs. Instead of that general crawling of the Filipinos to the feet of the invinc ible McKinley which we were to see Immediately following republican suc cess at the polls, we now discover that the Islands are more disaffected than ever, that they are honeycombed with insurrection, and that the revolt has become so pervasive as to compel Gen eral MacArthur to begin operations against even non-combatants. Coming to the details of this latest Philippine proclamation, we find it threatening to treat the insurgents as "fugitive criminals" that is, bandits to be shot on sight or hung without trial if captured to try as "traitors" even "well-disposed persons" in plac es "where secret committees are per mitted to exist on behalf of the in surgents," to accept no "pleas of in timidation" from non-combatants who have been forced to contribute to the insurgent cause, and finally, to deny the "privileges of prisoners of war" to all rebels in arms who are not "part of an organized force." It will be left, of course, to the American officers to decide what is an "organized force," and it is clear that what is contem plated is a revision to the fine old Spanish practice of standing prison ers up against a wall and shooting them as soon as taken. So we see that the good McKinley's breathing of grace, mercy and peace to the Fili pinos work out into this policy of "tho rough," which may lead to our outdoing of Cromwell in Ireland or Alva in the Low Countries. If the shrieks of slaughtered victims still have power to trouble a tyrant's dreams, the inevitable results of the new plans for official murder in the Philippines should cause many a sleepless night in the White house. New York Post. What Spellbinders Said Perry Crippen, writing from Stock ton, Kas., asking for the address of his paper to be changed to another postofflce says: "Allow me to ask some questions. Can a party be justly charged with demonetizing silver, when it is coining it in perhaps great er quantities than it was ever coined before? "Can we truly be said to have tho gold standard and have other money just as good? "Can you describe the gold standard so that any one may know it at sight. Some of the republican spellbinders in '96 said that we had had the gold standard for many years." (The Independent has not charged the republican party with demonetiz ing silver, but with the vilest hypoc risy in denouncing the coining of sil ver while it, as soon as it got Into power, went to coining it by the ton, and at the same time they kept the mullet heads in a tremble with fear, by charging that if Bryan was elected he would coin silver and blue ruin would be the result. There is no country in the world that has an absolute gold standard England comes the nearest to it. A gold standard, if there are any mean ing in the words, would be a country where nothing but gold coin would be a legal tender. There is no such country and never will be. Ed. Ind.l Dewet's Joke The latest Dewet story is making all London laugh.
