OFFIOIAL PAPER OF SIOUX COUNTY,
Geo. D. Canon, - - - Editor.
Entered at the Harrison post office cj
second class mutter.
For the past two years ye editor lias
contemplated chancing the name of The
Siorx County Journal. Since buying
the Northwestern Press plant we con
cluded to prefix the mine Pue to
Jui unaL. thus, making a. compound word
or name, mid what was ouce tho Siorx
CotNTY Joiicnal will iu the future be
known as, the Hakiukox Phes Juchnal.
In our own opinion, we consider tho new
head to be an id.-al name. We trust this
will meet with the aprovat of all our
readers.
The only people that are making any
outcry against the nomination nnd elec
tion of Hon. W. J. Bryan in 1W0, is the
Republican party and a few pold dem
ocrat, who in "5(1 wero ashamed to come
Out openly and vote thiiir Imnetit senti
ments a republican ticket but put up
n ttraw ticket thinking- by so dohig they
could split the democratic party, and
thus insure tho election, of president Mc
Kinley. Of courso tiiev foolr d the peo
ple nomewliat, but worst of at! ttie coer
ton and system of cRpionatjo up-jn tl.e
laboring; rots, who ware op.'uly, given
to understand tiutt if they did not vote
for Mr. Mckinley and the gold standard,
high protection, trust party, they would
be thrown out of a jeb &c. &c. If the
leaders of the republican party are an
xious to lute president MoKinloy reelect
ed another four years and they believe
Mr. Bryn is the weakest candidate that
the democrat could put up in the 1000
campaign, then they should do all in
their power to have Mr. Bryan renomin
ated next year.
The 1st Neh. Vol. regiment from Man
ila arrived quite safe and sound in San
Francisco bay last Saturday, after a sea
voyage of six weeks or more. Of course
there were 64 who did not return alive
to their native shore, besides 140 others
who came maimed and disabled for life
fu triply to carry out the benevolent assi
milation policy of tbe administration.
Whatever else may be said the valiant
courageous boys of the 1st Neb. VoL
have had about all the foreign conquest
for "benevolent assimilation" they will
waot for years to come. According to
to the spacial corresptndaot of the
State Journal and World-Herald, the
brve boys wars filled with joy, io
anticipation of soon being able to greet
their fathers and mothers, brothers and
aistert, sweet hearts and wives, also
their friends and neighbors.
May Ood grant, that tbe public reception
to be given in their honor at Lincoln, on
their return to the state may be one con
tinual round ol greeting and ovations
that the boys will not forget to their
dialog day.
CkanB Clark Sees SaeM.
Jackson, Mine., July 30. "Nothing
abort of death can prevent Bryan from
being Um democratic nominee and noth
Jag oat the Alraicty will prevent him
from securing it," aaid Congressman
Champ 'lark of Missouri in an interview
today. "Democratic chance of success
ttave improved fully 00 per cent in the
last four months and are now brighter
than they have been in any presidential
oanspaign in the last twenty years. It
Is practically settled what the party
platform will be and it may be outlined
M follows: Re-enactment of the Chi
cago platform, declaration against expan
sion, strong plank against trusts and oth
r oppression, opposition to large stand
eng army and advocacy of economy in
fiabllcexpence."-World -Herald.

or Government Money.
At close of our Civil War in 1865,
there appeared in the London Times
the following:
" If that mischievous financial pol
icy which had its origin in the North
American Republic during the late
Civil War in that country, should be
come indurated down to a fixture,
then that government wiil furnish its
money without cost. It will have all
the money that is necessary to carry
on its trade and commerce. It will
become prosperous beyond precedent
in the history of civilized nations of
the world. The brain and wealth of
all countries will go to North America.
THAT GOVERNMENT MUST BE
DESTROYED OR IT WILL DE
STROY EVERY MONARCHY ON
THIS GLOBE."
The famous Hazzard circular, to
capitalists in New York, and the Bucll
Bank circular to United States Bank
ers, both emanating from London, and
the fabulous corruption fund raised in
England and Germany, estimated at
$1,500,000, were the agents that se
cured the closing of our mints against
silver.
The "walk into my parlor" policy
of England, during and since the
Spanish War, is the latest evidence
of English Diplomacy in shaping the
destiny of the United States Govern
ment ,
Notwithstanding the famine price
of wheat, the Spanish War, and fabu
lous expenditures of money by our
government during the past year, gold
has increased in value eleven per cent
and all other values decreased in the
same proportion.
For a thorough understanding of
the money question, or silver issue,
the Cincinnati Enquirer has uniformly
given evidence of its ability to teach,
explain and produce all facts and
truth. It is a paper that ought and
can be read by all classes with pleas
ure and profit.
