Editor Kbtxsou, of tbe St. I’aul
Phonograph, who was defeated for
State Senator on the fusion tickit,
sends up the moat pitiful howl of any
yet beaid. He says: “We were de
feated by men who claimed to be
with ns and heretofore was.” That
is the same reason by which the fu
sioniBts almost lost the state officers
and did Iobc the legislature. The
disgraceful acts of Pro. Kbbcson’s
party in the state of Neb., during
the past two years has forfeited all
the claim they ever hud on any voter
and common justice demands that
they should be defeated.
The Spanish peace commission a*
1’arirt is said to be about to propone
arbitration as to the disposition of
the Philippines, with Emperor Wil
liam of Germany us arbitrator. But
we doubt very much if the United
States will accept any such proposi
tion with any European potentate us
arbitrator. We can expect no favors,
and mighty slim justice from any of
them, and it would seem the best
course for Uncle Sam to persue
would be to carefully consider what
was right and then send Dewey to
do the arbitrating. We have always
had to light for wlmt we got. but the I
time is near at band when Europe
will not csre to interfere with our •
rights to any great extent.
The Otuapa, Bee, attributes the
defeat of tiie state ticket to the local
tight made in Douglas county. It
claims that John L. Webster, man
ipulated the county couvention which
nominated Walker and Koutsky,
the two defeated candidates for 'the
legislature. Early ill the campaign
Kosewat-r demanded that these two
candidates be pulled off the ticket,
but Ins demands were not granted,
lie then attacked Mr. Webster slid
the two objectionable catldidaU ■ in
au un wan anted manner, and accord

not onlv defeating the candidate*,
but in n during the republican vote
in Dough s county some i,noo,
enough to elect the enure republican
statu ticket. Of eouri e Mr Hose

Wtliater, hut it is genersliy known
that Mr Hone water ffaged the fight

they should have established their
headquariers at Omaha, instead of
at the capital citv. Rosewater has
been a bone of contention in the re
publican party for years. He is
responsible for Holcombs election
uud supported him just to satisfy a
personal grudge which he iiad against
T. J. Majors, and toaatisfv his per
sonal spile with Mr. Webster he lias
unquestionably defeated the state
ti :ket.
The populist papers throughout
the state lament the fuet in heart
breaking editorials nnd with much
weeping and wailing that the popu
list voters stayed at home and fed
the swine and thereby partially, and
almost totally wrecked their party
lit tliis laud of populists and prairie
tires. Well, that such seems to be
the case no one will dispute. But
then, there is a reason for every
thing, ami that reasou is what all
men with an honest purpose should
seek to discover. The Republican
party was conceived of oppression,
horn of dire necessity and although
not immaculate or infallible, honest
ly accomplished the purpose for
which the good Lord inspired its
founding, it lias stood for good
government and an improvement of
moral* ever since the banner of John
('. Frccmont was tlung to the breeze,
or since William Lloyd Harrison,
wns dragged through the streets of
Huston with a rope around his neck
by dyed in the wool democrats, for
advocating freedom for the human
race regardless of color. She shot*
ibd her cannon and told traitors to
stand by, nor touch a single star in
the galaxy of old Glory, nor deteri
orate from a single stripe or blood
would flow. Brave men and good,
were the stamp of the organizers of
that party, and uot one of our great
est statesmen since then has failed to
receive ull the abuse, filth, slander
and falshoods that could be heaped
upon them by the cohorts of cussed
ness since the day of its organiza
tion. The democrats who we now
find running the populist party, (be
ing the disgruntled element that
could not get office in their own par
ty) hesitated at nothing that they
thought would gain them a single
vote, and to prove the asser.ion, lis
ten to them revere the memory of
our dead Republican statesmen, Lin
coln, Garfield, lilaine and others, who
they reviled to the bestof their hypo
critical ability before they were dead.
Listen to Bill Greene, as he masque
rades as a Lincoln republican, the
Arch degree member of the Knights
ot the Golden Circle This may not
mean so much to the foreign born
voter who came to this country after
the rebellion, but it shows them the
hypoeracy of the parties they are
asked to support. And further that
it requires the respectability of the
old Republican party to carry them
to victory, and they know the party
still contains it; and when they
steal it, besure their sins will find
them out. First apathy, and then
a change of heart, will send them
to their just deserts.
There it* no <|iiostion but that if
the republican had all turned out
and voted this year this state would
have elected the entire stale tieket,
perhaps two or three more congress
men and several more senators and
representatives. It was certainly an
otr year for the pops and the apathy
which they displayed was very
marked, many of them were disalis
tled with fusion, hence, hundreds in
nearly every county refused even to
vole, ami will doubtless either en
dorse the Kihuiuistration in twoyear*
from now, or come out with other
than fusion hauliers thing. Ho with
such a state of affairs it would have
been an easy matter for the re pub
lie ms to have captured everything
in sight, ettevpt perhaps, here and

There bus been quite a uuwberof the
boys sick and many are sick yet, and
quite a few have died, but our com
pany has not lost any so far, but
one was sent home the other day,
and two more are in the hospital. 1
have not had a letter from home for
about a month. We have not had
any lighting since we captured Ma
nila. The Natives seem to be well
satisfied with our government and
the way we administer it. They have

ese. We bave home trouble with
them to get them to clean up the city.
They are the dirtiest people 1 ever
saw, it is a wonder there in not more
sicknehs than there is. We were
paid off the other day. We expect
to be sent home this fall, and when
I get home again 1 expect to stay
there. We get very lonesome here
with very little to do but sit around.
I go on guard duty once in four days
and we do not drill but once a day,
and dress parade once a day, so you
see we have but little to do. Mother
you must not worry about me, 1 ex
pect to be home soon. The greater
part of the sickness among the boys
1 think they can blame themselves
for. There is lots of liquor drank and
no care taken, either of whaf they
eat or of their person. I try to be
careful, I chew considerable tobacco
but use no intoxicating liquors what
ever, and I am well and feel tirst
class all the time. We get plenty
to eat of army rations but you know
that is not like we gel at home, but
then we are getting used to it aud it
begins to go all right. I often wish
I was at home but we can't get there
any sooner by worrying over it so 1
cheer up and make the (test of it. It
would not be so lonesome if there
was a little cxcitetncut once in a
while but there is nothing going on
The natives get a little smart some
times but we soon take them down
a notch or two. I expect it will be
cold weather in Nebr,, whvu you get
