The Battle ship, Maine, was blowud mp in llavan a (Cuba) harbor at 9:40 Tuesday even mg, witliur by accident or otherwise is as yet a mystery, but a thorough investigation is now in progress to ascertain that fact. There were 200 marines killed by the ex plosion, and two officers are nii«siug) supposed to have gone down with the vessel. The escape of the officers is dee to the laei that the explosion oceirred under the berths of the marines. The Vessel was one of the best in our navy, and was 4 US ft. leog, and 76 ft bredth, and cost $2,588,000. exclusive of armament. Indications at present point to an accident. The Kiekapoo Indian Medicine Co. closed a series of two weeks enter tainments here last Saturday night. Which proved to them to be a liuau eial success, as the manager, Mr. imson strietly adhered to his seeri: ldgly well established rule to get ail he could out of the people, and to keep all he could get. Two weeks before his coming, be addressed a letter to us enclosing some local ad vertising and requesting the same to b« published. When we presented our bill at the close of the last act he roared like a mad bull, and seemed to think that it was an outrage that the newspapers should have pay for naviiJi' auvwitiaeu iueu ments to such an extent that they could do a very profitable business. Dr. Spencer and other members of the company, however, were well liked by ail who chanced to meet them, but Manager Imson is too much of an avaricious nature to succeed in mantaining the good standing of the company which ho unfortunately mis-represenls. A letter from the black Hill In forms us that the Grsble failure is creating considirable trouble in that locality, but the implicit faith the people of that country have in tbs Union Hill mines lead them toheleive thut no great damage will result from the present crisis.

Bob Ingeraoll once ■aid, “whenever a man begins to cry reform he is getting ready to steal” and it would seem from the late developments at Lincoln that Bob had the populist party in view when he said that. The charges of J. W. Johnson of Lincoln against the populist state officers are either true or false. If true they show up s worse state of affairs in state government than ever existed be fore and one that needs careful In vestigation, and if false why don't the “reform” ehernbs in the stale prosecute Mr. Johnson for criminal libel as he invites them to do. Now here is a chance for the populists to show to the world whether or not they were sincere in their declaration a few years ago when they said that they would speedily terminate the existarice of aDy one in thsir party who would betray the trust of a high office placed in their hands. This doctrine was carried out in Holt county and now the query is, if the present charges made against the stale officers are found to bd true will they still (ill the preseription. Their failure to suusessfully carry ! out tliu kidnapping of Simon, the re | former (not Simon Beter) last week i w.,s a .v p in the right direction.

Truth ie mighty end will prevail.
