Kenor Cnnoviis f(e (astello, the prime minister of Siin was assassinated near Madrid on the Hth inst. l.y an an urehrist. To illustrate liow tli republicans worked in tlie interests of the inillioiiares and aristocrats of the country, tliev re duced tlie duty on diamond from to 15 per tent. Now they are talking about how much cheaper diamonds will I... f- ..i. ... . in iiuiii uim oil, Wli; COUSISlailcy thou urt a jewell' The following is taken from the Daily World-Herald whitrh will explain itself. It does not spply to any particular party and it should he carefully read by every voter in the county, without regard to party nlfiliatioos; It is well for a political party to im press upon the minds of those who owe allegiance to it tliat traitors must look to those who prollt by their treachery for their reward. And the man who hobnolw with the oposition and assists it in ringing in cold decks must not object if he is looked upon with suspicion. Political treachery can never become io common as to lo accepted with compos ure and overlooked as a mere incident in political life. Editorally, our rupublican friend, editor of the NorthurxUrn I'ns, on the corner of Hroiul t lth street, doubtless made the elfurt of his life in taking us to task for publishing an article entitled "Under The liingley Mill", clipped from the New York Herald, showini: how tlie new tariff act had discriminated against ! the consumer, while it grants upeowl privelages to trusts, toaibioe and mo nopolies. la regard to the tern "free traoV as applied to ua, by w hich tlie aepirioir edit or of the PrrM wtkhes to (Wxiguate us, is not true iu auy sewM of the term. Our theory is now, and always has been a tariff lor revenue, adequate to pay the ruuuiug exnMM of the government economically administered awl that ie fcoud wltolsoiiwductriue advocated by the icf routed lfeoiocratic party. We are hot one of those who ill lay quietly w hile the Hkiouiug process is going on. We are iu favor of a protection that pro tects, uot protecliuu that taLn from the farmer, laborer, artiiau and mehcan- ics to be turned over to the money pow r. For instance, like Senator Cnnnou of Utah, we believe au export duty is the only protection that would be of upecial benefit to those mentioned and actually iu need of it. Our republican brother intimates in his arraignment of the editor of the Joiknai. that tlw Diogley tarilf bill had raided the price of the commodities and, admitting tacitly, we would be obliged to iay more for what we lad to buy, and at tlie same time he seeks to convey to his readers that every thing the farmers have to sell is much higher as a result of the new tarilf law ard tliat prosperity is right here. It is true that wheat, com, cattle, hogs aud sheep are higher but, it is not true, the Dingley law was the cause of the raise in the products mentioned above. Of course the Dingley law applies to imports, and so did the Wilson bill for that matter; how it can increase the price of export goods or products is duyond our compre hension If our friend across tlie way desires to be fair, why not explain why one of the largest cotton factory's in the east has abut down throwing eight thousand hands out of employment. Not a word has been Raid about the greatest coal tdrike iu the history of our country by our brother editor whether that is prosperity, or its advance agent. Tlie McKinley law was a complete fail ure and it was tlie mean that paved the way for ex-president Cleveland to issue 28'j,0OO,O0O in bonds for the benefit of I'ierpoint Morgan, August Belmoat, Wall Street and himself included with, no body knows how many others, to line their pockets. If the McKinley law done all that and it was not a result of the Wilnotj bill, because an exausted treasury wan inherited from a republi can administration when they took the reign of government what will bathe flul outcome with the Dingley law in force K, brother Davis toe tariff iasue ie only taleutated to divert tlte atten tion of the maaeee of the people from the true cause, the single gold standard which the republican party in commited to. If My republican denies the state ment made in this paragraph, read presi dent McKinley's meage to Congress relative to the appointment of a curren- y commission, to report ami formu late a plan similar to the Indianapolis gold standard idea. A few words more and that is this: we Krant to every body the name rights nnd privileges we enjoy free press Ac provided always, that they are honest in their convictions, and we assume that you are. We hail made up our mind not to quarrel with our neighbors or en ter into a public contoversy but brother Itevis would not have it that way hence, this reply. ADDRESS BY BRYAN. It Will he Delivered Before The Hilvrr Fort-en In Lincoln, When the Reform Parties Meet in 8e it em her. ' LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. l.Tlie three silver conventions of the Populists, Democratsand Republicans will be held in this city f-'epteniber 1- All arrangements have been completed to make the occas ion a great jollification for silver force.

Letters from several prominent bi ruetallists have been received by the committee saying the writers will be present Hon. W. J. Bryan, Senator Henry M. Teller and Hon. C. A. Towns will in turn address the three conven tions. The plans have been riiude more elaborated in order to counteract the influence of the reports that have been circulated recently concerning the alleg ed caucus of Bryan's friends in Nebraska to force hiiu to quit talking silver for a while. The meeting will also le the occasion of a national address to lie issued by uryan to the advocates of the silver cause throughout the world. It will toUch upon U,e Prog of t U! oeing niaue inrougnoui tlie country, and the evidence that Mr. Bryan las himself received during the past nix months on the lecture ptatforn about tbi renewed interest in silver. The address will reiterate tliat it is the only living jssue, and that all factions are today tending in that direction for the campaign of 1900. Mr. Bryan's friends w ill also at the same time formally deny that they have contemplated asking him to withdraw, even temporarily, from the platform, and will deny that they have said silver was a dead issue. Tlie Populists- conven tion w ill be composed of 2,700 delegates, the Democrats the same number, and the Silver Republican convention 1,000, so that the meeting will be a representa tive one, as far as the silver forces are concerned in Nebraska, and its actions may be accepted an the true sentiment of the silver advocated in Bryan's state A Oae Fair Rut.
