The net eash balance of gold in the treasury at Washington, on the 8, wu8 $229,994,791. The largest amount in the history of the country. Linder a democrotic administration we had to borrow money to pay run ning expenses. Under a republican administration we pay our way as we go and square up old accounts for the democrats. The Treasury department at Wash ington, announces that it will recom mend a repeal of some sections of the war revenue measure at the sit ting of congress this wintei so as not to draw so heavily on the outstand ing circulation. Also that it will re deem $2.1,000,000 of the 4$ bonds outstanding. They are now calling in $14,000’000 of the G’s. By the end of the second year of McKinley's administration $>100,000 000 of bonds now outstanding will have been paid otf aud the war debt taken care of. In four years of dem ocratic rule we went behind $262, 000,000 and that in a time of peace. It would seem that it would not take much of a financier to decide which party was the most profitable tor the people. The patriotic work of Victor Emanuel and Garibaldi, according to late dispatches is nullified. A blood less conquest and a victory wituout a battle has been the record of the Va tican, and vacillating Humbert, pick ed up his traps and left Rome, to take up his excuse for a court at the old stand in Turin. He has been a dis grace to his people ever since he has been on the throne. The ghost of his great father, V ictor Emanuel, and his Field Marshall Garibaldi, will surely hauut him for his coward ice. It is reported that Jacob Alders is an aspirant for the nomination of represen tative on the republican ticket. .Take has been with the party two years and it is high time he was recognized. We may have been misinformed in the mat ter but we will wager that tne populists can take our informant, Friez Korn runipb, and beat Jacob by two hundred majority.—Times Ind. Ed. seems to be sticking to the old populist doctrine, “put up a yellow dog and we pops will vote lor him.” Wo don’t know whether Mr. Albers would accept a nomina tion or not, don’t, think he cares for it, hut even if he were chosen, iu point of ability he is head and neok above Vandergrift. '1 he fight at Colorado Springs last week among the free silverites was about as disgraceful a thing as has occured for many a day and should show' clearly to the people that the tusiou elements are of the rule or ruin kind. Men who aspire to be leaders of the people should he con siderable above such disreputable rows and it they are not they should be turned down and their places given to decent men. The number killed aud wounded is kept very quiet as they fear the righteous indignation of the voter which is sure to come in the course of time, and the great er the row among the fellows who aim to do the bossing the sooner the fellow that casts the vote will take a tumble to himself aud then the jig will be up. am open t.kttkk. To the Hon. .1. M. Snyder. My Dear Representative:—When we heard two weeks ago that the pop party was about to turn 3011 down and nominate another less worthy and with much less ability, simply because you were two old to be up nights running around after votes, we could hardly believe our ears. We supposed as a matter of course that you would lie honored with a second nomination as a reward for your former efforts in helping to make the party what it is to-day. For the past eight years there has'nt been a candidate on the pop state or county ticket that you hav’nt whoop ed it up for from early morn until the cows come home way into the night, and your last campaign was marked with more energy than your first. Why, you went out on the stump night after night, and year after year in the cold October breeze from school bouse to school bouse, to ibe “Little Cottage Homes” and talked populism and fusionisin until you made votes for you party by the ballot box full. You never forgot to mention the good qualities of all of the candidates on your ticket. You done it in a way that Johu Yander grift could’nt and the whole pop party knows it. They know, too, that it was your effort that secured the first term of office for every offi cer elected to office 111 tins county on the pop ticket, and that it is also due to your effort that each have been privileged to strip the public teat for a second. They are well aware of the fact that yon are the ablest man they have ever sent to the legislature, and because you did nt continue to carry out their fool ideas in the representative halls, and advocated a little common sense in the interest of the people, they seemed to have no further use for you. When you stood up in the legislature and called a halt on the re-count business, and pointed out the wast of valuable time, the enor meous expense to the tax payers and the inevitable result of such foolish ness, that was enough to settle the matter so far as your future chances for holding ollice is concerned, and everybody ought to have known it. We did know it, but thought it would be overlooked by your former supporters, because of your valuable services personally rendered them in the past. You had helped John Yandergrift to office and positions of trust several times and what in thunder he wanted to jump up and cut your political head off' is some thing we can’t understand. Another thing we can’t understand: There was’nt a dod-gasted vote for you in the Loup City delegation, which was chiefly composed of I. M. Polski 11. >1. Mathews E. A. Brown and others. They balloted seven oi eight times with the same spirit ol forgetfulness. Now you doubtless remember bow hard you worked to give Mr. Polski, youi old Bristol township neighbor, his first term ol ollice as eouuty treasurer, and how faithfully you worked to secure for him a second term; how for four long years you have labored to place ami keep the county attorneyship in the hands of one who would divide the salary with Mr. Mathews, and how by reason of your efforts in that direction, he, Mathews has been en joying the pleasure of toasting his shins by a stove fed by the county. You also doubtless remember how persistently you labored to head oil the county printing from this office and run it into the bauds of Brown. Why, you actually went before the county board in 1894, and rallied to the support of Brown when his bid was higher than all the rest. You told the suppervisors, says you: ‘ Gentlemen: Mr. Brown should be awarded the contract even if his bid is a little the highest, as a reward for his fidelity to the party.” We say, when \<>u have given these men such heartv support in the past, we cannot understand why they should not accord to you all due courtesy in return.
