The Journal stanch fairly
and squarely on the Chicago
platform., but will not hesitate
to support and work for the
, election of candidates for the
various offices to be voted for
this fall no matter, whether
they are Democrats, Populist
or free silver Republicans, if
endorsed by all the reform par
ties, conditional, however, that
they advocate bi metallism the
income tax law, opposition to
national banks of issue, are
opposed to the retirement of the
greenbacks and treasury notes,
Javor government control of
railroad, telegraph and tele
phone lines and the establish
ment of postal " 'Sings bank

posed to the Usueing of nation
al bowls in time of peace.
The greenbacks answered ail purposes
dnring the civS war, why will they not
do now?
OfcourRflUie National bankers need
the govursimoot to lwk them up with

Should the United States navy achieve
another such a brilliant victory as that
at the Phillipino islands last Sunday

Porto Rico it will no doubt close the
war wt'tbin thirty days ufterwa rds.
"The Best thing that has happened
lately 1 the Enforced resignation of
Joho Sherman. When a man ban been

two years and is a piiilti-raillionaire
he mutt have been some kind of a thief."
Rav, Myron Beed of Denver.
Every congressman from Nebraska,!
who votua for the bond clause in the spec
ial war revenue measure, now before
that augustbody for consideration should
be spotted and elected to stay at home
it the coming fall campaign.
The United States cannot help but
whip out the Spanish forces for the rea
son that our military both land and
naval forces are by far the best equipped
are brave' r than the Spanish soldiers and
then they are in the right
According to the metropolitan press
the national bankers are opposed to
making the (500,000,000 bond issue a
popular loan in case the treasurer is
authorized by law to issue them main
taining that the national banks are the
bone and sinue of the nation. The presi
dent Mams enclined to yield to their de
mands if the great dailies can be relied
on for tha truth.
The newspapers that have always
nen loyal do not have to flaunt the
ftag in every column to prove their pat
riotism. Ex -copperheads and ex-rebels
are naturally expected to shout loudest
for Old Olory which they fired bullete
nto or otherwise insulted when the) life
of the nation was In danger;
Every indication now points to a five
aaadred million dollar bond issue. When
senator Danna gave the New York bank
rs the tip two months ago that in
all probability there wonld be a five
hundred million dollar U. 8. bond issue
re knew pretty near what ha was talk
ing about.
The above is a good one on Gen. Fitz
nugb Lee and all the loyal men of the
o uth, who are just now earnestly en
fffcffed in assisting a republican adminis
trt'.lon to drive tit Spanish from
tr western hemisphere. It will noon
is time for the fall campaign and tha
ibovo will doubtless be a sample of ar
gumect produoed by those kind of re
t 'Jblican papers (or purposes.

WAR HEWS.
A PROSPECT OF WAR-
As Indicated by the dally Press,
Last Sunday morning prob
ably one of the greatest naval
battles ever fought in the
history of the world, took
place between Commodore
Duey commanding the U. S
fleet of the Asiatic and the
Spanish squadron in the har
bor of Manilla, Phillipine
islands resulting in the com
plete distruction of the Span
ish squadron with Blight
damage to our fleet.
Something like 400 men
were killed on the Spanish
side no official account of
how many were lost to the
American forces baa not yet
been received.
Later commodore Duey and
his force are now in full pos
session of the Phillipine is
lands which the United
States will hold until such
time Spain will p?.y indem
nity for the Iobs of the Maine
and other expenses incurred
as a result of the Spanish
war.
Late advices from Madrid
is to the effect that Madrid
has been placed under mar
tial law.
According to late daily
papers ex-Capt. General Cam
po of Cuba and llorret the
war minister of Spain had
been assassinated last Tues
day and that Sagasta the
prime minister had taken re
fuge at the British Embassy
to Bavehis own life.
Porto Rico will in all
probability fall into our hands
soon, as a decisive battle is
expected to be fought there
between the Spanish fleet and
our own iuide of a week or
ten days.

From our Special Correspon
dent at Lincoln.
Our last war on its financial side was
sustained with greenbacks. The oppon
ents of Lincoln called the greenbacks
"rag-babies, Lincoln rags, and bloody
backs." Wall street and the whole
gang of northern disloyalists never
ceased to denounce Lincoln's money. In
those days the Kepubiican party was a
unit for the greenbacks. The boys in
blue defended them, liebold what a
change there is now I The republican
party has taken up the old disloyal cry
and has beguu to denounce the money
of Linncorn. Secretary Gage has been
down to visit the magnates of Wall
street and the house of Seligman promi
nent la the days of '61 is now closeted
with, the secretary of the treasure,
planning to issue bonds. The republican
party today under the leadership of
Gage, is but a reproduction of the old
disloyalist party led by Valandingham.
Out of the patriotic inopulse of the peo
pie who refuse to see -women and chil
dren starved to death in Cuba, they cal
culate to coin bonds s that our boys
when they return from the trip to give
freedom to the oppressed shall find ad
ded burdens to bear not only for tbem
selves but for their children and their
children's children. Like the old Tory
whom Patrick Henry spoke of, whe went
up and down the line of the American
batterios crying, 'Beef, beef, I want to
pay for my beef," the disloyal financiers
of today go along the line, under the lead
of Gage and Seligman, crying, "bonds
bonds, bonds, we want bonds," and the
sycophantic republican press replies.
"Yes yeu shall have bonds 1500,000,009
of bonds."
Today the reform forces in congress
represent exactly the same principles
and are inspired by the same patriotic
impulse that the old republican party
was when the north demanded the free
dom of the negro slaves. Their policies
aro the same, their schemes of taxation
the same, the money they demand is the
same.
The bill reported to the bouse by the
Republican members of the ways and
means committee has one chief factor
the rest of the bill is planned to aid and
sustain them in getting that one factor
enacted into law and that is to authorize
the issue of 1500,000,000 of bonds.
The minority report of tha reform
forces in the same committee asks that
the old Lincoln policy may be smployed
in cod acting this war, namely a tax on
incomes over $2000 and the coinage of
the silver bulloin lying idle in tha treas
ury.
The position of the two parties is ill
ustrated by a story contained in a letter
of Abraham Lincoln to tha Boston com
mittee when he was Invited to help
them celebrate Jefferson's birthday
In speaking of the two parties at that
time be said that it reminde l him' of
fight be once saw. Both men bad heavy
overcoats on. At the end of tha fight
each man bad somehow fought hirnself
into the other's overcoat. That tha
republican party of 1890 represented
the Jefferson ian democracy, while the
pro-slavery democracy of that day had
got themselves around to tha position
formerly ocoupied by the federalist.
Today again w see tha same thing.
The Reform forces are now occupying
the plaoe and defending the same princi
plea which Abraham Lincoln, Chase,
Seward and hosts of others defended
in the dark days of '81 while the republi
can leaders at Washington have adopted
the policies and methods of the Valand
lnghams of that day.
Let a cry go up from this land that
while our young man go out to free
Cuba, we pledge our sacred honor that
that upon their return they shall not find
themselves or their children boadod for
generation to coma,
