WILL MAUPIN'S WEEKLY THE WAGEWORKER WILL M. MAUPIN, Editor Published Weekly at Lincoln, Nebraska, by The Wageworker Published Company. "Entered at second-class matter February 3, 191 1, at the post office at Lincoln, Nebraska, under the Act of March 3, 1879." ONE DOLLAR THE YEAR Diaz seems to have fanned out. in order to gain a list of subscribers as long as Salt Creek would be if drawn out in a straight line; nor would it miss an opportunity espouse a cause it believed to be right even if assured that it wouldn't have enough subscribers left to wad a shotgun. There may be very lit tle money in running that kind of a news paper, but there's a world of satisfac tion. PRINTING Madero seems to have quite a few lights left in him. Governor Marshall of Indiana lias sureh' foozled his presidential putt. We hope that every time Andrew Car him of Homestead. negie looks at that medal it will remind A I any rale the sadly trounced "drys" of Lincoln are not mooning around about it and "knocking" the city. Trust Congressman Iierger to line over a few political hits that will have to be scored as "too hot to handle." How we wish Senator IJailey would get. peeved again to the extent of sub mitting another resignation. Ohio, the mother of presidents, seems to have stolen her nest with the result of hatching out a nasty brood of grafting cheap skates. Americans abroad who complain that they are not properly protected should hurry home and spend their money where they made it. A little sow in northwest Nebraska on May o was just to show that we can sup ply any old kind of climate demanded by a fickle populace. We insist that if the state compels us to pay a license to fish it shall issue a guarantee that we'll catch fish when we sally forth with rod and reel. Anybody doubt that Governor Marsh all, since honoring that McNamara requi sition, has cast jealous eyes along the trail blazed westward by Governor Wilson? In trying to put a stop to Sunday base ball Kev. Mr. Shepherd may think he is about the Lord's work, but the indica tions are that he misunderstood the di rection of the voice. Will Maupin's Weekly has lost a few subscribers because it took the "dry" end of the recent local scrap. If it has won any ones because of it the fact has not been made known to the business office, lint of one thing the public may be as sured Will Maupin's Weekly doesn't give a tinker's dam. It wouldn't espouse a cause it believed to be wrong It's high time to stop all this talk about "boycotting" this or that Lincoln institution on account of the results of the excise scrap. The way to make Lin coln bigger, broader and busier is to bury the hatchet at least long enough for the edge to get a bit rusty. Governor Woodrow Wilson says the initiative and referendum "is like a gun behind the door for use only in case of emergency, but a mighty good persuader, nevertheless." We call that the best de scription of the initiative and referen dum yet offered. William H. Thompson of Grand Isl and has anounced his candidacy for the the United States senate. Nebraska could go further and far an almighty sight worse and has had a habit of so doing unbroken but twice in the state's history. A few millions of Panama bonds will be issued in a month or two, not because there is no money on hand to finance the big ditch, but because things have been ti little slow with the bond gamblers of late. We refuse to enthuse over the cable gram to the effect that the City of David has been located by a British explorer. An Omaha friend of ours located David City away last November. Anyhow there will be no disputing the fact that Lorimer is earning his sena torial salary by his strenuous struggles to keep his senatorial toga from being ripped off his back. Governor Aldrich has decided not to commute the sentence of a murderer due to hang in a week, or two. The "sob squad" seems due for another season of short shrift. We stop the press to announce that the best place in Lincoln to get printing of quality when you want it is at the Wageworker Printery, 1705 O street. It is definitely anounced that Queen Alexandria will be absent from London during the whole of the coronation fes tivities. You may have just one guess. Colorado will have only one excuse for electing another democratic legislature it would not help matters a bit to elect a republican legislature.
