A sweeping victory i predicted by
.prominent democrat of Qhio, for Demo
cracy in that "t1 thi f,L Even chaU"'
.man Dick of tli Ohio Republican state
ittea has notified the ad
ministration that it is going to be

matter of Nebraska making a sweeping
victory thii fall. Tho Piwh-JoibnaL
.does not doubt for one moment but that
"we will lick em, and don't you forget
it."
I want to start with the declaration
that monopoly in private bands is inde
fensible from any standpoint and intoler
able. One trust may be 1cm' harmful
than another. Ono trust magnate may
be more benevolent than another, but
there is no good monopoly in private
hand, and I do not believe it is safe for
society to permit any man or group of
roan to monopolize any article of mer
chandise or any braooh of business. W.

TIME WORKS
Democratic Prlociplcs 1830.
Little by little, but steadly as man's
march to the grave, we have been giving
up the old for the new faith, nearly
e'f?hty years ago we began by declaring
that all men are created equal but now
from that beginning we fcave run down
to the other declaration that for some
men to enslave others is "a sacred right
of self-government." The principles
cannot stand together. They are as op
posite as God and mammon. ,- Our ropub
lican robe is soiled and trailed in the
dust Let us re-purify it. Let us turn
and wash it white. Jn the spirit if not
the Moo J of the revolution. Let us turn
slavery from its claim of "moral right"
back upon its existing legal right, and
its arguments of "nessiy," Let us
return it to the position our fathers gave
it and there let it re.,t i'i peace. Let us
re-adopt the DeciarV.imi of Independence
and the practices and policy which har
monize with it Abraham Lincoln.
Iiet every American rememlier that
to violate the Daclaration of Indepen
dence is to trample on tha blood of his
fathers arid to tear the character of his
own and his children's liberty. Abra
ham Lincoln 1840.
All men are created eijiial. They are
endowed by their creator with certain
unalienable rights, among which are life
liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
For the attainment or these ends gov
ernments have been instituted among
men, deriving their just powrrs from tbo
consent of the governed. .Republican

REPUBLICANS OPPOSED
The Republican Federation of papers

publican papers with Democratic or Populist papers. Bead the following which
shows plainly that their political lituratore is not such as will stand the tsst of

in the state for that matter, will strive
to harmonize differences and put up the

The rfpiiuiicun uty in their state
convention, at Omaha last wetk, tore
off the mask which they wore during the
presidential campaign of 1H9C, and de
clared openly aud without equivocation
for the single gold standard, sustained
the president In his foreign war policy
of "criminal agression," (but denominat
ed by Mr. McKinley as a "benevolent as
similation:) and added au ambigous plank
which means anything or nothing that
appears all things to all man (voters)
ia opposition to trusts.
Every voter in Nebraska should read
that platform and then make an honest
comparison twtween the democratic,
populist and Free Silver Republican plat

Republican Principles 1899.
Rev. P. S. Heiisoa of Chicago, who
in addressing an adminstration mass
meeting held ia that city ou September
14, said:
Today there are those that wave the
Declaration of Independence in our face
and tell us that the thing to do is to del
iyer over those islands of the archipelago
in the east to the people who are their
rightful masters, for "all governments
dotive thsir own just po wers from the
consent of the governed." So wrote
Thomas Jefferson. Do you remember
that tha lord said to Joshua. "My ser-
vaot is dead?" And so is Thomas Jeffer
son. ' I do not believe that Thomas Jef
ferson was infallible. I believe that a
live president in the year of grace 1809
Ls just as much of an authority as a pres
ident that lived and dU-d 100 years ago.
I am no worshiper of a saint just because
he is dead. Let the dead bury the dead.
Also that hallowed document, that dec
lares that ail governments derive their
just powers from the consent of the gov
erned, if that is to be literally construed
there never was a greater falsehood
palmed off by tho devil upon a credulous
world.
A MONSTROUS HERESY.
Stephen A. Douglas declared:
I tell you that this Chicago doctrine
of Lincoln's declaring that the negro
and the white roaa are made equal by
the declaration of Independence, and by
divine provideoce Is a monstrous hersey
The signers of the Declaratiou of indepen
dence never dreamed of the negro when
they were writing that document. They
referred to white men, to men of Europ
ean birth and European descent when
theydeclare the equality of all men. y

How to Make "
a Famine.
Take a trust doing bussiness nt both
ends of u great industry, a protective
tariff designed to help tlie industry to
live, a plentiful demand for the trusts
product, and a determination on the part
of the promoters lo fimke a million dol
lars a minute if they tan, and if they
cant, then as much as the public will
pcH-mit, mid you have all the ingredients
of ns complete famine ns nature ever
brought ubout by d, ought or pest.
There is such a famine now in the iron
and steel trade. Tho demand for iron
:tid Keel in this country at present may
to raid to be unprecedented. Prices
have cone una hundred per cent within
a year, nd ship yaids and railway con
tractors that might employ thousands
of nion re behind in their work und del
inif their orders because they cant buy
the miiter.als they need. . '
The Carnegies, the Fncks. the Rocke
fellers, and the rest of the iron kings say
their mills are running avertime to sup
ply the demand, and that there is a shor
tage of iron ore, Who made the shor
tage? Reside controlling the mills, these
men control the mines. They can get
all the ore they want. They can build
new mills. Not they. Their mills are
making them profits of a hundred ppr
cent and - they are in a position to
hold up the market until they get ready
to relieve the situation as their owp' fig.
uras. They have a "corner" at both
ends.
Tliere is no enconrngeroent to ! other
capitalists to build competing mills, tor
they have to pay a Dingley tariff duty
of 40 conts a ton on ore and $4 a ton oo
pig, while the Carnegies, the Rockefel
lers and the Fricks can scraps ore off the
mountain sides for nothing, They have
been "protected," and now they are re
paying tl people for it, The 'train is
so great that a little ore it coming ia
over the tariff wail but jttt much, and
any competing mill ower who triad to
rely on a foreign upiy would be at too
great a dis;irtvntig to keep it up long.
The trust woifdrci'hr get bis mill ot
ruin him in shirt order. e,turaiy IsOl
