Bear in mind During the last two

they decreased the state debt $00,542.
In the PhiripitHT Inlands, every male
citizen over 21 years-old must pay a poll
tax, equal in our money to $30, and the
women pay f 13. Is it any wonder tbere
have been 17 rebellions in those islands
during the past 60 yean?
Following are three of the Ave com
missioners to represent the United States
at the peace conference at Paris, be
tween Spain and this government:
Secretary Day, Adjutant General Cor
bin and Senator Davis of Minnesota.
Since April 25th, last when congress
declared a state of war existed between
this government and Spain, will have pas
sed four months, Aug. 25th' and during
that short period of time, we have as a
nation demonstrated to the world that
the American army and navy is second to
none on earth. Our soldiers are invinc
ible as fighters and by their deeds of val
or and heroism, have served notice to
meddlesom powers of the old oriental
countries that they must show due
respect to a first class nation like the
United States.
It will be something very singular if
the railroads in Nebraska do not interest
themselves in the selection and election
of the legislative candidates this fall.
For the past 20 years or more, it has been
the settled policy of all corporations
trusts, National banks and especially
the railroads to take a lively interest in
state politics and in 1890 they became
much more bold and enlarged their elec
tion campaign policy from that of the
state to a national one. The election
this fall is a significant one and in var
ious ways will effect the weal or wot of
our people: one is whether senator Allen
shall be returned to congress or whether
a republican, representing national
banks, railroads, trusts, and corporations
shall be elected; whether the maximum
freight rate bill shall be so amended
as to conform to the constitution that
ths supreme court will be unable to
knock it out; and whether the people
shall be permitted to sand representa
tives to Lincoln to legislate in the inter
est of the wealth producing class or the
railroads and corporations. It is for the
people this fall to determine by their
votes whether their candidate shall be
elected or corporation candidate. Of
course we are presuming that the cor
poratioos will have a candidate even if
it is a gold democrat; if they don't the
people will win without doubt
Fuslonlsta the Good Samaratlns.
As a result of the republican admin
istration of state affairs for the seven
years last past that the g. o. p. were in
power, there were 14 republican default
ers and the amount of defalcations were,
$1,118,503, for which Attorney General
Smyth instituted legal proceedings and
secured judgements against the default
ers or tneir bondsmen for $333,211.
The above glorious state record of
the g. o. p. in Nebraska, besides their de
claration of the single gold standard In
their state platform only a few days
ago down at Lincoln, ought to convince
ths people of this state bow the land
lays in regard to good government
"The proof of the pudding is in chewing
ths string." Hence, the reform forces
in Nebraska have demonstrated to the
public conclusively that they are of the
people, for the people, and by ths people.
The record of the republican party in
congress, and the administration have
nothing mors in common to commend
ths republican party in this state for
recognition from the people, than the
democrats, populists or fret silver re
publicans, for it must bo admitted by
all who art inclined to be fair that it
was ths reform forces together, with
a few such patriotic senators as Hon.
John M. Thurston aad William E. Mason
and a fsw others in ths lower bouse, and
public opinion, compelled president Mo-
Kinley to act in ths Cuban troifbl
against the expressed will of Mark Hao-
na, Wall Street and Grover Cleveland
who's polioy the party would have oar
ried out to the letter, only for ths Mains
iackteat Do ths people of Nebraska,
who like ths stranger mentioned in holy
writ, on Ws way from Jerusalem to Jeii
oho beaten, robbed, and left bleeding and
dying? wish to turn the state over to that
tarns element? Or, do they prefer to
tsars the administration of our state af
fain in ths hands of the "good Samara
tin to which SamaraUn may be likened
tM faformed f oross.
The Democratic and Populist senator
ial convention of this district meets at
Valentine next Saturday.
It begins to look as if the sugar trust
was working to have the West India is
lands which Spain has been forced to
relinquish, annexed to the United
States.
Just for a Poynter the JoOkhaL rises
to inform the public that the fusion
state ticket will be elected by a much
larger vote this fall than two years ago.
Why? because the reform administration
of the past 18 months has been a record
breaker for honesty and efficency un-
paralelled in the history of our state for
good government
The Cubans- have been scrupulously
prevented from exersisiag any authority
of having anything to say in the con-
quored part of the island; but Spaniards
who have been guilty of murdering in a
official way thousands of the Cuban
patriots are permitted to exercise mun
iciple authority in the city of Santiago.
Is that humanity?
Following is how the Daily Inter
Ocean feels in regard to how Hon. W. J.
Bryan retains his magnetic bold on his
party and that it is not sure about the
free silver craze being dead in this coun
try here it is, read what it says editor-
ally:
Nearly all the Democratic state con
ventions of 1898 have now been held.
A few of them, like Pennsylvania's,
steered around national issues, or feebly
sought to escape the shoals and quick
sands of 1890; but for the most part
the resolutions adopted showed that the
party now pitted against Republican
principles and policies is the same old
Democracy.
To all appearances W. J. Bryan is as
strong with his party today as be was
two years ago. The probability is that
he will retain bis hold until 1900. But
however that may be the opinions and
purpose for whieh his name stands are
now, as then, chart and pole star of the
party. Daily Inter Ocean.
