The proof was abundant and furnished by the reports of the mint and the treas urer of the United States, so there could - be, no denying the assertions. The Independent started off on that line, but it could not get the demo cratic dailies to follow. That fact of the coinage of the enormous amount of silver should be stated in the popu list platform at the next convention and made a prominent part of it. Hardy's Column State Fair Rain Equal Taxation Assassination of .iaent McKin ley, Speech of McKinley. The state fair has come and gone. There is a great satisfaction in meet ing citizens from all parts of the state, of all classes of producers and all shades of political and religious belief. Then wo can learn more from every body than we can from those only of our occupation, party and church. To see the fine agricultural exhibit one would not think there had been a drouth in the state for a hundred years. The fruit especially loomed up equal to any state exhibit we ever wit nessed. The live stock, too, of all kinds, exhibited signs of great improvement. An inch of rain in Lincoln must mean two inches all over the rest of the state, if so, the ground is in order for fall plowing and wheat sowing. A double quantity of wheat should be sown this fall. Small grain of all kinds lias always ripened before the drouth and hot winds have put in an appearance. I --!'.:. t -n I'.f-'z.fZil of the week tLr- r:. hae .- t.'..- j in making t;ft ' trnt-rlv-!..

He will not be allowed to talk about "re- j organizing" the republican party on i anti-imperialist grounds. He will be j heaved over the transom. Mark Han- na will never allow any republican iDave Hills to stay within its folds. The lack of any ability in editorial writing has never been more glaringly evident in the dailies than during the few days that have elapsed since the president was shot. If there has been one article in any- one of them that would attract the attention of a think ing mind, we would like to have it pointed out. "For the most part it has been gush, silliness, anarchy, for ad vocating lynching is anarchy, and .ful some flattery so disgusting that it would turn the stomach of any decent man. This disgust has been openly expressed by many eminent men. Dr. Mann, one of the eminent surgeons who attended the pr?sident, said of the dailies: "I am almost ready to de clare that I will never allow one of them in my house again." It will be teen that what The Independent has been saying about the daily press is not alone its opinion. The mistake that was made in the last campaign was not charging from every platform and in every issue of the reform press that while the repub lican party was denouncing Bryan as ja lunatic and repudiationist for advo- j eating silver, the administration it jself was coining mere silver than was The republicans in Wisconsin are having the same kind of a fight among themselves that they had four years ago in Michigan. That part of the party that is bought and sold, bribed and threatened by the corporations has met and organized for the purpose of fighting the other part of the party who are in favor of taxing railroads and other corporate property, accord ing to selling value, the same as farms. Governor Pingree came out ahead when his party put up a similar fight on him. He received ten thousand more votes than McKinley. All kinds of property should be taxed according to its selling value. A diamond ring that would sell for five hundred dol lars should be taxed the same as a house and lot that would sell for the same money. In Iowa it is democrats against republicans on the same ques tion. In Chicago they undertooK to re duce teachers' wages. Three or four school ma'ams looked up several mil lions of property in the city that had not been assessed, then went into court and compelled the assessors to put it on their assessment roll. In that way money enough was .obtained, to con tinue the same wages of their teachers. Tiie Texas American Oil Co. IK U--n incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois.

Do they kill rulers as hunters used tc kill buffalo, just for the fun of doing the job? If one of their own men should happen to be elected presi dent of the United States or of France, would they kill him just the same? Have they any object or motive besides the satisfaction of doing the deed? Why don't they take governors and mayors? Who can tell what they are aiming at or what they desire to ac complish? Why has not our secret po lice wedged their way among them, found out their secret plans and put our open police on their guards? Just a single hanging is too good for such criminals as shot Garfield and McKin ley; if a doaen of their gang could be strung up at once the punishment would seem more adequate. If our presidents could be saved by secret betrayal of criminals and then the in tending criminals strnug up it would seem much more right and just. If it should turn out that President McKin ley's assassin was a Filipino, there would be some logic in the deed. It certainly is no more a crime for a Filipino to shoot an American in Am erica than it is for an American to shoot a Filipino in his country. Now they wil? probably hold McKinley's assassin to see whether the president lives or dies. The punishment should be the same for he is Just as much of a criminal whether the president lives or dies. Our president made a speech in Buf falo the day before his assassination in which it is fair to suppose he re flected the sentiments and purposes of the republican party. He said not a word about coining silver, but held his mouth mum just as the Cleveland democrats did in the Ohio state con vention. But then his actions speak louder than words in the fact that he has coined more silver than any pres ident before him. In so doing he has virtually carried out Bryan's money theory. Now he proposes that his party shall adopt Bryan's tariff or free trade theory. He does not use the 'term free trade for that would shock a majority of his party beyond endurance. He uses the term "recip rocity" which means to let England and other nations sell their goods in the United States free of tariff just as they let us sell our goods in their country. He made one false statement, that "prices are fixed with mathemat ical precision by supply and demand." The president knows that the high pro tective tariff has done more than any thing else to fix prices of manufactured goods in this country for years. He seems to be afraid that Bryan may run for president again and his tariff doc triue carry him in. so proposes to take the wind out of his sail by adopting his policy. The grain, meat and dairy products of the Nebraska farms are sold in New York and Boston every day in the year for less than they could be sold the same hour for in Liverpool, London or Paris. Then if the farmer wants to buy New England cloth or Pennsylvania iron he must pay forty to seventy per cent above European prices. Is that justice to ward the Nebraska farmer? The farmer has to pay the freight on his produce to New England and Penn sylvania and also on the goods he bays HUSK YOUR G0RN.WMr A rn crop it be prontaoie wi tnoxis mtuk tne roaaer, but it win be twice a DroStabla The new method of hand Un or corn sares the entire crop.

He advocated the doctrine of controlling them by law. Forcing the Executive The fame of . ueemer's" state convention has gone abroad. The Buf falo, N. Y., Times has the following comments upon It. It heads the ar ticle, "A Shameful Spectacle." "Not in many years has there been enacted a scene at once so singular and so shameful as the one presented at the republican state convention at Lin coln, Neb. Several years ago Joseph S. Bartley. then a republican state of ficial, embezzled a large amount of the public funds. He was imprisoned for a time, but when the republicans again succeeded to power, one of the first acts of the new governor was to re lease his brother republican on parole! "It was this act which caused the scene in y ester dav's convention. It was owing to Bartley 's crime that the republicans lost control of Nebraska for four years, and they were fearful that a like consequence would follow the governor's action in paroling Bart ley. The convention yesterday passed a platform plank demanding that Bart ley's parole be recalled, and the man will be at once returned to prison. "What a confession of maladminis tration of justice is it when it is nec essary for a party convention to pass resolutions to force the rhief execu tive of the state to perform his duty!" For over sixty years Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup has been used by mothers for their children while teeth ing.

A JUST JUDGE Hla Kim Should be Honored by all the People Some Pointed Remarks The federal courts have so unani mously supported and defended the extortions of railroad companies that it is the common belief among the people that the corporations own them all. It is with gratification that one judge has been found who had the courage to tell the railroad managers that they were a lot of law breakers and could get no relief in his court until they were prepared to do equity themselves. The Lackawanna railroad appealed to the United States court at Buffalo to forbid sixty-one ticket scalpers from dealing In pan-American excursion tickets. Judge Hazel threw it out of court, his decision that it was not en titled to the protection of the laws being based upon the reasons in these two sentences from his opinion: "It appears that the complainant is a party to a combination which is en gaged in pooling railroad rates and in fixing fares in order to avoid compe tition between- the several lines con stituting the association known and distinguished as the Trunk Line asso ciation. . Can the aid of a federal tribunal be invoked to protect the complainant in the issuance of a ticket which is the culmination as well as the evidence of an agreement between railroad corpor ations specifically forbidden by an act of congress which has been sustained by the supreme court of the United States?" Judge Hazel decided that, sitting in equity, he could do nothing for a com plainant who "does not . come Into court with clean hands." This decision has greatly agitated not only the railway lawyers, who thought they had "dodged" the anti trust law, but also all lawyers for combinations. It flatly declares that the federal courts cannot be invoked to aid in the enforcement of the con tracts of combinations where those contracts are on the face proof of the existence of the combination to "reg ulate" prices. ly with circumstances, raised the aver age cost of mining coal by about 10 cents a ton. In early spring of the present year the "general understanding" hitherto prevailing among coal operators was succeeded by a trust which has three times advanced prices at will. The householder at tide-water will this winter pay nearly a dollar a ton more for coal than the average price for ten years past. The men at the mines will get 10 cents of the increase.

The Price of Coal Coal was advanced 25 cents per ton on the 1st of September, making a to tal Increase of 50 cents since the 1st of May, when the price was already above the average. " . Last summer's strike of the coal miners was, by the influence of the re publican campaign managers, 'settled by conceding Increased wages to the J men. These increases, varying slight- They Gather It in The plutocrats under the favoring wing of republican legislation continue to gather in what labor produces. Sep tember is not considered a large month for either interest or dividend disburse ments, but the payments scheduled for the present month include $10,563, 314 interest on railroad bonds, $12, 952,321 dividends on railroad stocks, $20,176,318 dividends on industrials and $2,935,475 interest' on miscellan eous bonds. This foots up to the con siderable sum of $46,627,45S and is about $9,000,000 in excess oi the inter est and dividend disbursements of the corresponding month of 1900. The table above summarized are necessarily incomplete and relate only to the disbursements on acount of se curities which are of speculative inter est on the New York stock exchange or ate known and recognized herd as acceptable bank collateral. The dis bursements on account of stocks ano bonds not known or quoted in the mar ket reports would swell the total by a large figure, for under present condi tions the payments are by no means limited to the concerns with great cap italizations, upon which public atten tion is focused by reason of the magni tude of their operations. The Weeds Must be Gut The new law now in force, says the Fullerton Post, makes it obligatory upon property owners along the high ways to cut the weeds and hedges up on their property. This must be done between July 25th and August 25th of each year. In the event of a failure to do this, then the road overseer of the district in whf-.h the property is lo cated is compelled to have the work done and report the same to the proper officials, who will enter it against the land and the cost will be collected in the same manner as that of taxes. An overseer failing to do his duty in this respect becomes amenable to law. Chinese Cheap Labor The next congress will be called up on to extend the Chinese exclusion act. Present indications are that there is a disposition In the councils of the ma jority to throw our ports wide open to the Chinese. This is a matter of vast importance to the working people of the United States. Chinese labor would demoralize " the entire industrial sys tem and render useless for protection any organization of working men. It looks as though there was a conspiracy of the trusts in behalf of the cheap la bor of the orient. Sioux Falls Press. Educate Tour Bowels With Cascareta.

Poverty, privation, persecution and hardship cannot weaken or shatter the belief of the Jewish people in the old prophecy that they will be reunited In a land of their own, says the Chicago Post. When this idea took tangible shape In the Zlonistlc congress which convened at Basel, Switzerland, in 1897, the men Interested were scoffed at and called visionaries. Max Nor dean and Theodore Herzl were the prime movers and organizers, although the idea dates back to the time the Jews as a nation became scattered. Today there are Zlon organizations throughout the world to the number of about 2000, and the very comfortable sum of $1,750,000 has not only been subscribed to the cause, bnt paid. When it is said that this money has been paid In more often than not in amounts of $5 from one individual, the progress of the work speaks for itself. Over in the ghetto district there are tenements housing a dozen families of this nationality in almost as many rooms. Yet in the midst of this penury and often suffering the desire for a re united nation burns strong. Families making barely enough to keep body and soul together point to a gilded frame which surrounds a certificate showing that money has been paid for a share in the great work. They are not too poor to support the movement, though too poor to indulge in the com monest pleasures. It is this spirit which has fed the flame first started in Swit zerland and which the leaders assert will in another ten years accomplish what was first thought to be the idea of dreamers. Next October delegates from all over the world will gather at the interna tional convention of Zionists in Lon don. It will be the fifth congress. Al ready the Jews in Chicago are plan ning otr who will be sent to represent them. By that time It Is hoped the fund will have reached the $2,000,000 mark. Last June the American Feder ation of Zionists met in Philadelphia. Plans have now been completed to hold the next gathering. In Boston. Word from eastern headquarters has been sent to the socie In the United States that a oon paper will be started In the f auTlii the interest of American Zionists. Knights of Zlon is the sobriquet of the society which Is represented In the middle western states. Headquarters are in Chicago, and Leon Zolotkoff, ed itor of The Jewish Call, Is grand mas ter. This district has lodges In Wis consin, Illinois,. Minnesota, Iowa and Michigan, and organizers are working as far west as Colorado. Through Mr. Zolotkoff 1,500 shares have been sent to headquarters in London. Many more have been purchased in this district Chicago, but not through Mr. Zolotkoff. Two years ago the Co lonial Trust bank was Incorporated in London, with a capital stock of $10, 000,000. The bank will not be operated until the entire sum is raised. Then It Is the plan of the leaders to purchase from the sultan of Turkey the rights to renationalize the Jews In Palestine. The total cost of the venture Is esti mated as high as $20,000,000, but the work is so huge that nothing nearer than approximate figures can be made. With the rapid growth of the Zlon istlc movement in the last year It is be lieved by many of the Jews that the fulfillment of the prophecy that they will again occupy Palestine, the home of their forefathers, will be brought about In another five years. For twenty years colonies of Israel ites have been settling in Palestine un til today there are about thirty such settlements. The children are taught Hebrew and converse In this tongue. The Mosaic laws have been changed to meet present conditions, and these bodies of Jews are looked upon by the Zionists as the nucleus of the new Pal estine. They engage In agriculture and manufacturing, and already their wares are beginning to have a reputa tlon m the commercial world. In speaking of the movement Mr. Zolotkoff said: "When first started, many people looked upon the whole idea as visionary and an attempt to es tablish a tribal clannishness. Those who thought of the scheme In all Its lights pronounced it the only rational solution for the preservation of the Jews. In countries like Russia, where the race is subject to persecution, their Individuality is fast killed off,, as It were. In ; other countries, like the United States, for example, where they are treated liberally, the tendency is also to do away with individuality, but through assimilation.' It would be lm possible to keep the Identity of the Jews as a race much longer under present conditions unless some such scheme were worked out. Tt Is not the idea to transport all Jews to Palestine. There would not be room enough for them. Only those who desire to. go will be asked, and even these will be given a strict exam lnatlon to see that they are desirable. By uniting modern ideas and Improve ments with the stable laws of the Jews, which are even recognised by the gentiles, it Is the hope o every one Interested in the movement to re nationalize the race, making it a power for good in commercial and religious circles of the world."

Some farmers think that the place to get bargains is in some store where everything la topsey-turvey that - if there is any style or neatness in the store that they have to pay for the display. We have changed all this. We cater to every class of trade high and low, rich and poor and we not only cater to this trade, but we get it. Our store is where the banker and the poor labor ing man bump elbows with each other, where the prosperous farmer meets his less fortunate brother. They are all looking for the place that gives the most good goods for the money, and that's our store. We are the cheapest drug house in the west. We know this because we receive orders from every county in this state. Instead of buying our drugs in small quantities, we buy them in large quantities, large enough to put us on the same basis as the jobber and by paying cash vand getting the benefit of the discount we are able to sell most drugs cheaper, than the ordinary druggist can buy them. We have a line of household remedies that are the best in the world and save many doctor bills. We sell our $1 pat ents for 69 and 79 cents, and if you ever buy anything here and it is not as we represent it, your money back. Nothing could be more fair.
