What did tie mallet beads who voted tbe repnb Ikaa ticket have to do with tbe mat ter? It Is said tbat Thompson wobbled on tbe tariff aad tbat Itosewater at oae eaoaac4 tbe "corporation cor morant." Therefore It was utterly icspOMlhSe for either cf theza to be ejected United States senator. Tbere baTe t-eea raaay queer re carks made by Lincoln citizens about the election of United States senators. One of tbem was; It wata't a. fair deal at all to sead Bartley to tbe peai tenUary aad Joe Millard to tbe Uaited Elates senate. Bartley and Millard were equally concerned la the theft of over two bQBdred thousand dollars from the school fund- Tbe fasioalsts sent Bart ley to tbe penitentiary for twenty year and the republicans sent Millard to the United States senate for six years. If any republican has aa ambitioa ty be a United States senator be would tetter go and b-ay a national bank. Thai Is tbe only kind that the party are sending to the United States sea ate at tbe beginning cf this century. Ho others need apply. It seems tbat not one of the repab- licaa candidate who pledged himself to tbe election of senators by tbe peo ple had a ghost of a chance whea it came to a show-down. Dietrich and Millard are not bosnd by tbe promises made by the defeated candidates. It Is Senator Steel and not Senator Bl who Is tbe new lieutenant gov emor. It was Mr. Franse and not De France who announced to tbe joint committee of the fusion parti e last fall that there were no populist in Cuming county. Something seems to have got wrong with tbe machine last week. Rosewater also remarks that "the defunct legislature Is to be com mead 4 not so much for tbe good laws it has passed a for tbe vicious bills it has killed."' Doubtlessly ae refers to tbat infernal ballot law and tbe at tempt to gerrymander tbe state so as to get two more republieaa congress- tsea. Rosewater has kept whacking away at republicanism for the whole week. Monday be remarked tbat "the outlook for silver seems most favorable, aad "the tariff proposed by tbe Philippine eommiwiQQ is meeting with a good deal cf critlcitm."' Go It. Rosey! Tbe Independent Is with you oa both those propositions. Who Is tbe real donor of tbe enor mous sums that Carnegie Is diftribut Jrg? The Independent may be mis taken, bnt tt Craly believes that it was the workers la tbe Iron 'mills and nice. Carnegie kept tbe wealth vbirb they created and Is now giving It way to libraries. It Is to workers Is Carnegie factories to whom we -"Could be grf tef sL TtroMOBirixsKiia Tbe election of Dietrich aad Millard will continue the subserviency of the west to the plutocrats, trusts and pro tectionists of tbe east. The residents of the rocky hills and barren valleys of tbe Atlantic coast have laid the est under tribute to them for very many decades through the manipula tion of the lick spittle politicians that the republican party sends to the bouse and senate. Millions upon mil lions have been appropriated and ex pended in those states by the votes of the western congressmen. If an ap propriation of public money is pro posed for tbe west, :the. men whose election has been bought by eastern money and sent from the west," give it bat a heartless support, while appro priations to the east are voted for by every one of them without any urging at all. When these eastern represen tatives Tilify and misrepresent the west our cowardly republican con gressmen have not a word to say in reply. If one cf them, like Burkett, succeeds In getting a few dollars ap propriated for the repair of a worn out sidewalk, he comes home and brags about it during the whole cam paign. If a pop attempts to get our share of the millions thus appropriated then the sneaking servile, cowardly, hypocritical republican editors come forward and try to beat it as the old State Hypocrite did when the pop sen ator from Nebraska had a bill before tbe senate to build, not a sidewalk, that It has bragged so much about for two years, but a necessary extension to the postofflce building, so that the aw ful crush that lasts for an hour or more every Sunday when the office is opened and the distribution of the im mense amount of mail could be at tended to on the days of publication of tbe many weeklies that are printed here. Tbe great weeklies like the Free Press and The Independent have had to make arrangements In their own of fices and do their ownTHstributing for months, because there was not room enough In tbe postofflce building to attend to It. Tbe Independent mail never goes near the postofflce, neither does that of the Free Press. The room that Is alloted to handling the mail sacks at the Lincoln postofflce would not bold the sacks containing one edi tion of Tbe Independent, Free Press aad Commoner, even if it were piled clear up to the celling. The republican congressmen and the republican state organ would not give tbe least assistance to get an appro priation for a necessary building in which to handle tbe mail of this city, but they are all for an appropriation of nine millions a year for Mark Han- na's ships. Whenever anything is asked for the west, then these gentle men get up In the halls of congress and lie about it like horse thieves. When the question was before congress concerning Irrigation, Mr. Hill of Con necticut declared that it would cost thirty-six billion, and Cannon of Illi nois said it would cost seven hundred and fifty million, when the careful es timates of both the geological survey and the army engineer corps was that all the water of the arid region could be conserved at a cost to the govern ment not to exceed $150,000,000. Now all the mullet heads of the state are in a high state of glee because they have sent to the senate two more flunkies, who will vote for ship sub sidles and prove traitors to every west ern Interest. There is not a particle of doubt that there are some millions of, silver dol lars in circulation that were never coined at the United States mints. Tbere has been another flurry about the matter In Washington. It is said that a large quantity have been made In Mexico and put in circulation. An other writer of an investigating turn cf mind has been trying to find out what has ' become of all the silver mined In the last few years. After Investigating every avenue of con sumption he declares that there is a large amount unaccounted for. He does not say that it has been surreptitiously coined, but that there is no other known way of accounting for its dis appearance. What Is to hinder tbe coining of silver? There is no possible way of distinguishing a silver dollar that Is coined outside of the mint from one that is coined at the mint, if ordi nary care Is exercised. It is not diffi cult to do. The most danger lies in getting the exact weight of silver and alloy, and a discrepancy there can only be detected by a careful chemical analysis. The profit in making them is more than a hundred per cent. ClffAP MONEY Morton i3 still talking about "cheap money. He really does not seem to know, that money has-been getting cheaper every day. It took nearly 50 cents to buy a bushel of corn in Chi cago the other day. When his patron saint ruled tbe roost at Washington and Morton was his adviser, it only took ten cents to buy a bushel of corn In relation to corn, money is about three hundred per cent cheaper than In the days when Morton and Grover spent their time denouncing "cheap money. Just in proportion that money has grown cheaper, the farmers have prospered. Think of the time when the mullet bead farmer went around declaring that he wanted the money of the greatest purchasing power, good money, sound money, and J all that sort of thing. It hasn't penetrated his brain yet, any more than it has Mor ton's, that it only took two bushels or corn to buy a dollar in Chicago the other day, while it took ten bushels to buy a dollar when Grover and Morton joined the republican party. That makes money nearly four times cheap er and brings wealth to the farmer who has corn to sell. The main rea son for it Is that McKinley has been coining more silver than was ever coined under tbe Sherman act. The old White house hypocrite has done another- thing which is in per fect accord with his whole career. He has appointed W. A. Rodenberg, a de feated candidate for the house, a mem ber of the civil service commission. Rodenberg has always been an active opponent of civil service reform and went so far when he was a member of congress as to vote against the ap propriation to pay the expenses of the board, which was in effect voting to abolish it and return to the practice of changing the whole force of em ployes engaged in the government ser vice, in the post offices, letter carriers and everywhere else upon the change of the administration. McKinley ran on a platform indorsing civil service and that is the way he proposes to keep his promises. The recent publication of the in structions sent to the commissioners to negotiate the treaty with Spain show that McKinley was the first one to advocate "conquest" as a principle to be adopted by this government. He insisted upon the theory of "conquest" and so instructed the commissioners although Judge Day and a majority of the commission protested.. That is another illustration of the character of the White house hypocrite, for he was at the same time talking about our "moral code," "divine providence" and "benevolent assimilation." As the records continue to come to light, they show more and more that he is the villain of the ages. If the Southern Mercury and a few other papers could drop their peculiar partisanship for a few weeks, they would be able to see that now is the. time to put the populist party on its feet in Texas and some other south ern states. The democracy Having made such a tremendous failure in the late legislature a failure so complete and dismal that many decent demo crats are ready to abandon the organi zation now is the time to say, let us who really believe in reform unite. If an honest effort were made to get the real democrats to act with the real populists in that state the recent leg islature would be the last chance that old gang of anti-Bryan democrats would have to deceive the peqple. McKinley has appointed, at the re quest of Boss Piatt, Fred J. Allen as commissioner of patents. Thousands of protests are being sent in. Allen has been a rank partisan of the Bell telephone monopoly. That monopoly figures that if they can get the com missioner of patents that they will have things their own way for a good many years to come. But then Mc Kinley i3 a saint and combines within himself, as Chaplain McCabe declares, all the virtues of both Christ and Moses. It . Is not McKinley's fault, for the emperor can do no wrong. It is all the fault of Boss Piatt and that wicked telephone monopoly. The Crete Democrat, after quoting the remarks of The Independent con cerning McKinley's audacious lying, says: "Twenty-five years hence The In dependent would not dare to print such words about the head of the republi can oligarchy or trusts. Liots or re publicans hang their heads in shame at the contradictory acts of the man redeemed from bankruptcy by rich magnates of corporations in order to have the right kind of pious material for president." The editor of The Independent may not be here twenty-five years from now, but if he is, he will have the same opinion of the old White house hypo crite and dare to express it. Every man who is bpposed to mak ing this republic an empire should get ready for a big fight against calling a constitutional convention. The pluto crats are determined to abolish the constitution and make a new one in its place. The submission of an amend ment to the constitution is a far differ ent matter from calling a constitu tional convention to make new one, Tbat is the latest piece of deviltry that the old hypocrite of the White house has concocted. A constitutional con vention called under his reign would eliminate irom that document every one of its provisions that has pre served tbe liberties of the people. That is exactly what they intend to do. Bartley got a chance to serve the state more than three times as long as Millard did. But then Millard wil repeat if tbe republicans continue to hold power. THEY'RE AFTER HIM Bryan's shots at Cleveland, Dave Hill, Rolla Wells and a few more dem ocrats who have been playing the bun coe game of staying inthe democratic party and voting the republican ticket has started the southern cayotes to howling. The Memphis Commercial Appeal lets loose as follows: "Mr. Bryan does, himself no credit when he indulges in vulgar assaults upon Mr. Cleveland's character, rep resenting him as a deserter and traitor, and stating that he 'turned the treas ury over to a foreign financial syndi cate, and Intrusted J. Pierpont Morgan with the combination of the govern ment vaults." This is cheap claptrop, entirely unworthy of Mr. Bryan." The Chattanooga Times yelps after this fashion: "Besides gratifying his " pent-up spleen, Mr. Bryan plays the role of the business man in making rowdy, boy- sh, ill-mannered attacks on Mr. Cleve and." ' Hill and Cleveland have persuaded these parasites of plutocracy that they are" going to control the national dem ocratic convention and they have be gun their yelping at the heels of Bry an. They have concluded that the south will vote any ticket labelled democrat" no matter what principles are incorporated in the platform and they have the promise of big contribu tions from the trusts and banking syn dicates. The trusts have figured out that it will be cheaper to run the dem ocratic party, when they once have downed Bryan and the "new dem ocracy, than it has been to run the republican party. Mark Hanna calls on them for so many millions every campaign that they are getting tired. There is no more conscienceless set of rogues on earth than these southern democrat-republicans. They are such a green lot that the sharpers from the north can twist them around their fingers, and the said greenies will not know that they are being twisted. See how easily they took them in during the last congress. All the trusts want of them is to skin them, but the poor ninnies don't know enough to even know that. They have hauled up a firm in Ma nila and are trying them by a court martial for selling supplies to Fili pinos. When that court martial gets through with that case, it would be a good idea for it to come over here and try one William McKinley for sell ing war supplies to the British, who are at war with a nation with which we are at peace. . v Rosewater r draws - it very mildly when writing about the new senators. He says: "While no claim can be -a laid for either of our new senators to gifts of oratory or training in diplom acy and statescraft we have the grati fying assurance that the interests of this state will be in safe hands in the higher branch of the national legisla ture." Tobe Castor, when Cleveland was president, carried a black bound book in which the fate of every office-seek er was recorded. ' That black bound book is now transferred to the side pocket of D. E. Thompson. Prospective pie eaters of every grade will act ac cordingly. So far, none of the names of the "big six" or the recalcitrant nine are to be found therein. Rosewater not only gave the presi dent a whack last week, but he took a shot at the sacred doctrine of protec tion in tne following words: "Our judgment is that there will be a strong pressure upon the Fifty-seventh con gress for a revision and modification of the tariff which the party in power will feel called upon to give attention to." . ' - One or two democrats have conclud ed to get a move on themselves and take a trip to the Philippines so that in the next congress they will be able to speak with as much authority as the exploiters who have secured fran chises or timber concessions and whose way is paid out there and back by taxation. Among the number is Senator Bacon of Georgia. A republican congress declared three years ago that the Cubans were fit for self-government, were, and of right ought to be free and independent After two years of drilling under the orders of the White house emperor, they now say that they are not capable of self-government at all. That shows the degeneracy caused by the malign influences of the old free-trade-for Porto Rico despot. The reply of Lord Lansdowne con cerning the Hay-Pauncefote treaty in dicates that England intends to bold onto everything specified in the Clayton-Bulwer document. Now it appears to The Independent that when one party violates a treaty that releases the other party. It is well known that since Great Britain and the Unit ed States declared that neither of them would undertake to annex terri tory in Central America, tbat England has got hold of a large slice on the Mosquito coast and has held posses- sion for a long time. She did that in direct violation of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. Now she says that the Clayton-Bulwer treaty must be held sacred forever and that all coming genera tions to the end of time will be bound by it. That one set of men can bind all the generations who will be born and live on this continent and that a contract that they make must be held sacred by all the millions jwho shall n all coming time Inhabit this hem sphere, is a doctrine that may.be agreeable to the present English gov ernment, but here is one pop who will have none of it. The world belongs to the living and . the orders and con tracts of men who have long since mouldered into dust is not an Irre vocable law to the living. Dr. Winnett was elected mayor of Lincoln, but nevertheless this hell hole of republicanism adopted one of the chief principles of populism and voted for the public ownership of city light. Rosewater says that the failure of the legislature, in spite of its republi can majority, to carry out the pledges made for it in the platform of the par ty Is most disappointing. There are 113,879 more republicans in the state who have the same opinion, - McKinley's carpet-baggers are out doing the Spanish about two hundred and . seventy per cent. The Havana Post says tbat there now are 250 office holders in the city's public buildings, whereas in the worst days of Spanish rule there never were to exceed sixty or seventy. The other "new posses sions" can doubtless show up just as well. If pie can keep a party in power the republicans will hold the govern ment forever. , Aguinaldo having taken the4oath of allegiance, the president now proposes to make him a republican office-holder. A little while ago he was a savage, a bandit, a rebel and all those sort of things. According to their ideas that is the best sort of material for office holders if they will only take the oath of allegiance to McKinley . and they have a great many of that kind on the pay roll of the government. Rosewater indorses the idea and wants Aggy made a governor in the Philippines. , It is announced that McKinley has substituted P. C. Knox of Pittsburg for Griggs. That is in accordance to the eternal fitness of things. Knox is the lawyer who pulled the armor plate concerns out of a very bad hole when they were caught swindling , the gov ernment and endangering the navy by furnishing armor full of blow boles. Since that time Knox has been a trust lawyer of the same sort that Griggs was. As long as tne trusts noia one cabinet position they will feel perfect ly safe. Three; weeks alter the facts were printed in The Independent, the old State Hypocrite in its correspondence from Omaha tells about the recent fight in the legislature between the B. & M. and U. P. to control the election of senators. The B. & M.'won, and with the aid of Senators Clark and Kearns will proceed to build from Salt Lake to the Pacific and get $20,000,000 appropriated for a harbor near Los Angeles. When the old hypocrite gets within three weeks of The Independent with its news, it is doing extraordi narily well. The holding of a continuous session by the legislature from Thursday until Monday morning at 10 o'clock will bring up a very important question about vetoes. The legislature legally adjourned on Thursday and as an act becomes a law unless It is vetoed with in five days, all the vetoes will have to be in by Tuesday or else they will be no good. More bills were passed af ter Thursday than during all the prev ious time that the legislature was in session. That is one of the peculiar performances of the last republican legislature. It is likely to be "the last republican legislature" for many years to come. . The next day after the election of senators the Bee ventured to adverse ly criticise the president. Nothing of that sort has appeared in tbe Bee before. Is it an Indication of what is coming? Mr. Rosewater, in comment ing on the appointment of Rodenberg. who has always been a fighting op ponent of civil service reform, re marks: "The republican party has stood firmly for the reform ever since it was adopted. Why, therefore, the president should have selected to ad minister the civil service law a man who is on record as opposed to the principle, who voted in congress to overthrow the merit system and who, so far as known, has not changed his position regarding the policy, is alto gether incomprehensible." After a while perhaps Mr. Rosewater will conclude that the proper thing to say. will be: "The old White house hypocrite has had a -habit of saying one thing and then doing the opposite thing all his life. He began with silver and ended with Cuba. BEAD IT CLEAR THROUGH ; The Independent is constantly com plimented in the state press and. by its subscribers all oyer the United States. Its matter is more widely copied than that pf any other publication, not only in the state, but in many of the great financial and economic papers of the east. No adverse criticism has ever been noticed except the calling of a few bad names by some of the middle-of-the-roaders. Such treatment by the press and subscribers, while fully ap preciated and Is the cause of gratitude might have the effect of producing vanity. No doubt the editor of the St. Paul Phonograph considered that dan ger, so he gives The Independent a whack or two just to keep it from be ing vain. He says: , "Most of the populist papers are do ing a fairly good work, but almost the whole effort is spent upon criticisism of the opposition. While this is use ful to a degree, it has its natural bounds. We have often estimated bow much more good a paper with the large circulation of the Lincoln Inde pendent could accomplish by taking some space now devoted to treatises upon 'the mullet heads to constructive and educational work." Now we really thought we had dis cussed fundamental principles a good deal. "Many subscribers have written and many men have called at the office to say that they were delighted be cause The Independent never gave up. That it kept fighting for the old prin ciples, when all the rest of the editors had stopped the discussion of econ omic subjects and devoted their space to the most trivial matters. As the Phonograph is the first dissenting voice that has been heard, the fact is worth recording The educational work of the "Nebraska" Independent, not "Lincoln" Independent, is found not only on Its editorial page as is the custom of most populist papers, but it is scattered all over the paper. Half of the editorial writing is found else where than on the editorial page. Per haps the great circulation is due in some measure to the fact that it has no grave yard. Every part or tne paper is equally interesting. Many men have, declared "that it is the only paper that they make a practice of reading clear through from beginning to end. The progress of populist ideas is simply astonishing. Advocates turn up in the most unexpected places. Men of every position in life adopt them. There is a case in New Jersey which is attracting general attention. Mr. Charles Keigley, a shoe manufacturer and a millionaire, made his advent into public. life by advocating the pop ulist idea of public ownership of pub lic utilities. His friends say that he is the first millionaire in New Jersey to put these advanced populist Ideas into practice. He has risen very suddenly in politics. He started by running for the council and getting the largest majority ever awarded a local candi date for office. At the head of a citi zens' movement he smashed the here tofore invincible republican machine. His friends see in him not only a win ning candidate for the state senator ship, but a coming big political power in the state. This is only one example among many, rne new declaration or inde pendence proclaimed at Omaha will win in the end. The republican governor charges the republican legislature " with extrava gance and. says that they gave way to "contaminating- influences" . and en gaged in "barters, trades and deals." Besides that, the said republican legis lature was criminally extravagant. The Independent is inclined to think that Dietrich is telling the truth about that Nebraska republican legislature. But the republicans of the legislature say that Dietrich is engaged in petty spite-work, he is worse than a bull in a china shop, that he acts as if he were the whole thing, that if he had his way he would ruin the reputation of the state and that he is the biggest fool of a governor the state was ever cursed with. The Independent is also in clined to think that these gentlemen are telling the truth. , SPECIAL SALE High G rade flour per sack ......... t 95 Full patent 90 17 pounds granulated sugar J . 1 00 3 cans standard tomatoes. 25 4 canscorn.... 25 2 cans imported peas 25 3 pounds maple sugar 25 6 pounds hand picked navy beans. . 25 6 pounds prunes......... 25 5 pounds dried peaches. 25 9 bars Silver Leaf or Santa Clause - soap...... 25 Crackers by the box per pound. . . 05 Good potatoes per bushel......... . 40 Highest prices paid for country pro duce in exchange for groceries.
