PHIL BESSOK, of Kearney. Watch the political curves of the Litchfield Monitor. It seems to be playing its readers for a lot of suck ers. Its influence however is no longer felt. The yehow Journals of today are a pei feet reproduction of the cop perhead papers published during the civil war. You old timers who still remember their treasonable editor ials compare them with the Sherman County Times and report your de ductions. That double barreled popgun over the way weui o(f half cocked again last week. When both editors gets to work one can’t tell what will hap pen. Of course we know you have had the “Cream' of the farmers trade and thrived upon it, but then there wasn’t much credit connected with it. Butterine, Oleomargerine. Yes Phil Armour puts it up out of waste tailow and lard, and sells it to the state officials to feed the inmates of our public institutions on and the farmers butter goes begging. This is no gag boys keep right on voting the pop ticket “they don’t sup port corporations.” It is quite evident the pops have again secured the support of the Litchfield Monitor, and employed Mr. St. John, a Kearney, pop to run it. After the campaign is over and that paper has secured all the popu list patronage possible it might nat urally be expected that the Monitor will make another grand stand play for republican patronage. Does the Tim^-s know that the war with Spain was carried on with cash and not revenue stamps. Can’t that sheet be honest about it and tell its populist readers the truth. Could the war have been run on revenue stamps or don’t you know any better? Of course the administration :;0u?d ^‘200,009,000 of bonds to carry on a war with, that you Jeykel & Hyde fellows done all in your power to force McKinley into before the coun try was ready and now he is collect ing the mcney through the revenue stamps to pay oir the bonds and not one dollar of that two hundred mill ion went into the fund known as the reserve or surplus which is rapidly accumulating under a wise adminis tration, A flashy headline in the Times last week reads; “Bryans Regiment Sick er.1' “Disease Ruining the Health of our Nebraska Iloys." Is our boys suffering any worse than other troops? lias Bryan got all the war glory he wants? If such is the case let him resign. He laid awake nights to figure out a scheme for a millitary record, now let him serve bis country as he claimed was his only desire when he was forcing the third regiment on to the admin istration, or acknowledge that be is u sycophant of the first water. Gov ernor Holcomb hasn't went to Wash ington to plead for Colonel Vif quaiues release has ho? Why should Hryau be released and other men kept when hi* country needs hi* service? Why should he seek to abandon that which he worked so hard to get into? If theie is a in«n of that kind in the republican party show him to us till we advertise him Should a patriotic American be ashamed of such chicanery? Is that the kind of material to make presidents om of? All populists are you proud of such leaders? Are they the men you rely on to lead you to the promise land? Be honest gentlemen, your country, your homes and your descendants cry for calm judgment and you cant afford to deceive yourself. It has come to out ears that because we did not notice the long winded article in the Times written by the “President” in answer to the remarks we made about the manage ment of the lair association, that we huve dropped it like a hot potato. There were two or three reasons why we declined to notice it,. One was that the “President was evidently ashamed to sign his name, and an other was that he either did’nt know enough to publish his answer in the same paper so that it could be read by the same people or he studiously sought to avoid identity by address ing a different set of people and pos ing under a jug handle name. lie said that he solicited the support of the stock holders simply because ho thought they should take hold and help, but he never appoligized for accusing them of “sitting idly by and growling about no interest being taken" or explain why it was that he waited until the fair was nearly on before lie solicited their support. “Prisldent” W. Ft. Mellor may be smooth enough to run a church choir but is a failure when it comes to running a county fair—or to run out a preacher. The Tibbies letter as published last week in the “Reform” papers throughout the state is a fabrication of falshood that isso easily run down that one would think the papers pub lishing it would hesitate to plauc themselves in so vulnerable a posi tion. As to the first great falsehood, that the republican papers through out this state are receiving their ready print free of charge, it being paid for by “boodle republicans,” we ask that all who believe this will call at this office and examine the receipted lulls from the Western Newspaper Union of Omaha, for ready prints received by us during the year, and for which we paid our hard came] cash. We will gladly exhibit them and show you that Tib bies lied and of course the Times man being acquainted with our trans actions during the year could not have been in ignorance of it. Now as to the condition of our state banks, we find that the state bank examiner reported to the state banking board that there was de mand liabilities in the state banks to the amount of $53,095,75:1 and cash on hand was $5,710,880. The populist banking law demands that they keep twofifths of fifteen per ceut of their deposits in their vaults at all times and the balance of the 15 percent can beat their centers of exchange in the cities where our Your < Doctor j Knows; Your doctor knows all about * foods and medicines.

But the wilev populists grasp) this as an opportunity to deceive their readers by telling them that about one-tenth of the deposits was all the Bankers had left and leave the idea that the balance was scpian I dered when the facts are. no small bank can safely keep their money on hand if they wanted to but must ecnd it east to the money centers for sufe keeping and as a convenience of ex change. This is their Law and their Funer al. If their examiner has found such a rot ton state of affairs among our banks as they wish their readers to believe, when he reported it to the State Blinking Board why did not that honorable body order those in solvent banks closed, and if they failed to do so whose fault was it. If that is the kind of officers the pop ulists have furnished this state had not we better have a change.
