Senator Stewart got himself at the
head of the delegation to the pop state
convention. Wonder if lie expects that
there will be some contests for him to
vote on so he can make a raise?
The consistency of the leaders of the
-independent party in this state was apt
ly shown when the president and secre
tary of the state committee went to
Washington for weeks begging the gold
bug administration to take them in out
of the wet by giving them on office.

A parade of Hhe unemployed in New

the republicans were in power no such

that a bill providing for tle free coinage

The railroads all over the country are

what to do it is to be hoped that it will
get itself down to business and do some

The grand assessment roll of the state
has just been made up. It shows an
assessed valuation of 1194,933,124. this
is about one-tenth the real wealth of the
state, which would be $1,949,331,240.
That's about what we're worth every
day iu the vear except the one on which
the urbane assessor calls. Fremout

A Lincoln man just returned from an

its famous corn valleys is withered and
dry and presents the apiearance of Ne
braska in the latter end of a dry season.
Lincoln Call.
The World-Herald says that the pops
will not nominate Justice Maxwell as
their candidate for the supreme bench.
Of course they will not. They attempt
ed to foo) the republicans into doing so
which would enable the pops to elect
some one of their own ilk-. The way for
the republicans to do is to find out what
the opposition wants them to do and
then not do it.
Attorney General Hastings has retain
ed John L. Webster to assist in the suits
which have growu up out of the new
rate law and the cases will be tried for
all there is in them. The sooner and
more certain the matter is settled the
better it will be. If the law is good the
courts will say so and if it is bad all
parties want to know it, but it is to be
hoped that the strongest showing possi
ble will be made by both sides so that
there will be no rehearing or new trial
foolishness.
It is reported that in a number of
places reports have been started that
one or more banks of the towns were
shaky. Such a thing is the height of
foolishness and is in most instances the
work of some chump who has not a dol
lar of interest in the world and is mad
perhaps because a bank refused to loan
him money. The fact is that the coun
try banks have not been loaning money
to speak of since the hard times started
and as a result they are perfectly safe.
At such times as this the fact that a
bank makes no loans is good evidence of
its being solid, and good proof that it
proposes to stay so.
A man wrote to Gov. Crounse a few
days ago asking if it was true that the
Catholics intended to kill oil all the
protestants and stating that the )eople
in the locality where lie lives are pre
paring for self defense. It would seem
that people should have more "horse
sense" than to get frightened at any
such foolish rumor. There would be no
object for the Catholics to attempt such
a thing more than there would be for the
Methodists or Presbyterians or any
other religous denomination, and it
would be very quickly found that
the Catholics are loyal to the nation and
would refuse to have any thing to do
with such a scheme. It is an injustice
to the humanity of the people of the
Catholic faith to circulate such unreas
onable rumors. The age . for such
schemes has passed.
It ii noticed that a change occurs in
the cashier of a bank in an adjoining
county. The person who occupied tlie
position was one of the first settlers of
the place and had been active in the
growth and developement of the town.
He had held office tmder the republicans-,
bot last fall he took offence at some
thing and west into tlie pop party. It is
generally considered that that ws the
chief reason tor tlie change in h busi
ness relations. It is absolutely out of the
question for a man engaged in banking
to endorse the third' party movement
and continue in the business and be con
sistent, and if a man is-not consistent in
polities he is not honest therein, and if a
person is not honest in politics be- is sood
looked upon ws not being honest hi other
matters and tint aoes not build a man
up to any great extent.' His no more
consistent for a banker to pretend to be
a popaiist thaM it is for a saloonkeeper
to pretend to- fce a prohibitionist.

The discussion of the beet sugar in
dustry is again revived. T has
! never ceased since it first . . . -uirf
st.ite but there have been seasons when
it has been talked of but little. Tlie fact
is established that Nebraska is destined
to be a great ugar producing state and
it is also established tliat Sioux county
produces the richest beets of any place
in the world and the time will come
when a factory will be located within
reach of our farmers and then this will
become one of the richest portions of
the state.
Does He Figure On a Life Term?
From the following which appeared in
the Fremont Tribune a few days ago it
would appear tliat the Custer county
statesman who is not in congress for his
health, must think that the dear people
are going to keep right ou electing him.
He will have a rude awakening about
November, 1894;
'Congressman Kem in a speech the
other day said that before he would vote
for an unconditional repeal of the Sher
man law he"d stay there until the ants
carried him out through the keyhole.
Now if someone will kindly furnish us
with the dimensions of the key hole we
can estimate to a certainity just when
Kem will vote for unconditional repeal."
