Populist fllo ulassc* sneer at re turning prosperity, but acts are r more eloquent Ilian words. The election <>( president McKinley was no sooner assured than populists and republicans alike began to sweep and garnish, that, the house might be rcad\ for the coming prosperity. Among the prominent populifcts who have invested in expectation of advancing prices for real estate may lie named K. K. fia) hurst who bought the Stub! dwelling property, J. II. Travis who him pun based a fine business budding ami also a residence the li Kreiclibaum pluae. These gentlemen have both added considerably to tho original investments in tins wi y of paint ami improvements. Hup'. Johnson (jus Imugh' and greatly improved a m at residence property in tin: north part of town, bounty Attorney Long and ex-C'ouuty Attorney Smith both feel that limus are easier and have had their residences painted and thoroughly overhauled. (Jims, bus Layer is getting ready for a greatly increased business and has added a complete line of dry goods to his stsok. In fast there is scarcely a populist in town who does not feel the Improvement and expect a «om piste restoration of the good old republican times. In addition to inis the village board, all populists mt one, me re placing wooden crossings and cul verts with permanent structures ot stone. The drays go loaded wish goods and there i* two cash jobs at good wages for every man that wants to work, bcntlcmun this is the kind of stuff prosper ity is made of. Dollar wheat will lift many farm mortgagee in Nebraska. VVhv baa the price of egg* al moat doubled? Ia that on account of a failure of the crop in the old coun try, too?—Kearney Sun. Show ua a farmer that Iras'nt got any money now and we will show you on* that will have aorue when he sells his wheat crop. When wheat get* up so high that people oanu t afford to use it as bread stuff corn will be substituted. Thi* will make more of a demand for emu consequently the corn will be eorrospcediugly high There U evidently more joy in the house of populism overoge reueyatlu republican who a as bought into the tanks by promise of olltee limn thaie is over ninety uud nine who have steadfastly followed tile faith, K« aiin y Sum.

The Independent man often feels thankful the lie doe* not have to edit a populist paper. We cannot im agine a more doleful, gloomy and dis consolate occupation than that of editing a real live and vigerous popu list paper. The whole superstruct ure of their edifice rests upon calami ty. The deeper their country and, in fact ull other countries, are plung ed in misery, the greater the indi vidual and public woe, the happier i* tho populist editor who i» true to his creed. Their missions and their delight is to tars down, to intensify and magnify ull forms of evil, ol hit man suffering ard misfortune, of puhlicund private calamities. With every evidence of a return to prosper ity all about them, not through any effort of tbcirrt, hat in spite of them they realize tbut their favorite slock intrude is fast disappearing; they are still plunging about wildly at every little bank failure or other misfortune, as a drowning man grasps ut a straw, hugging it to their hearts and fondling it as a choice and wel come titbit. Cornu out of your caves of gloom, ye nnrcperit sinners,and enjoy a little season of blessing and good diver. L’otne out into the radiant and glori ous sunlight of returning republican prosperity.
