The Nok.thwestern PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY at THE COUNTY SEAT. ORO, E. BEfMOHOTEB. Editor* *ni1 URO. M. UIIISOS, Publlitierii TERMS:—*1.00 pkh vkah. ir paih is advasok Entered at the Loup City Pontofflce for tran* mission through the mall* as second claa* matter. Official 1’aper Sherman County If we had more Dewey’s and Ices Bryans in the United States, this would be an ideal country to live in. The German government has with drawn all of its war vessels from Manila, and placed its interests in the keepiug of Uncle Sam. A wise move for Weary Willey. A leading ex-populist official was beard to remark the other day that “things begin to Iook pretty rotten at Lincoln." But you could not tell it by perusing any of the pop papers of this county. The Oregon will he with Dewey in a few days and the Germans have gone. Dewey is an impearlisl and a patriot, and the opponents of good government could not turn his head by offering him the presidents chair. I'be fifty- fifth congress contained twenty populists, while the fifty-sixth will contain but seveu, and Nebraska furnishes four of them. It used to be “bleeding Kansas," but poor old Nebraska holds that distinction now. The Orel Journal has caught on and declares that it will no longer support pass grabbers. This of course is the smallest purt of their iniquities hut the most pop papers do not even dare to mention that. By this time General Lawton and his troops must huve arrived at .Ma nila, und the Philippine Junta will beur something drop with a dull thud that will rnuke them shudder when that old Indian fighter gets after them. The word “Little American” was coined for the designation of the sore beads who do nothing hut oppose the President for political reasons The facts are they are so infernal small that the word “American" should not be disgraced by applying it to them. The power of Aguinaldo, in the Philippines is fust fading, and as soon us these Islands become a profitable and peaceful part of tbe United States every little midget souled opponent of tne present pol icy of the government will cry, j told you so. The people of the United States will never elect a man president that will get a regiment of volunteers mustered into service for the sake of getting a colonels commission for himself and then resign it at the first sign of danger. Our people are brave and patriotic, therefore will always vote for a hero instead of a coward. Senator Alien's tenure of office! expired last Saturday, and Nebraska will hereafter be represented by two republicars in the senate. Mr. Alien can always feel proud of his record in the senate regardless of his politics. What a relief it would j bo to Nehr. if Hill Green had the principle and manhood that would entitle him to the same praise and distinction. When the organ of a party will try to cover up the thieving* of their public officer*, you can depend upon it that the downfall of that par V is near a* it should he. Kvery tuiuute* Hitting* of the legislative committee while investigating the charges made by deputy auditor l.ichty was a continuation of hi* charges, yet the leadtug pop paper*, outside of the W orld Herald, make every efforts to show to the (ample that l.ichty himself was the trail* gressor and the men who have a> k nowledgrd themselves violator* of the law aud emtieslers, are perfectly dean while a great part of lh**e papers do not even mention it When a newspaper has not got the mural stamina tu criticise Hi own par*', when it kne»w* that its leaders have betrayed the trust given into their keeping look a little nut for them papers, they are uni) looking fur spuds •DISEASED PUBLIC.” \ e«. such seems to l»e the ease, it is deplorable hut finite man lias uot yet discovered a remedy. From all ages it liasbeeu such, and if the mil liniutn don't draw near and purify the air, if the microbes that run i iot in the brain of the egotist can not be extirminate 1 before they at tack that part of the anatomy of the calamity manufacturer the world will always look drear to some. These poor fellows have always ex isted, even from remote bible days they have been with us, but in the days of sacred writings they were better able to cope with them. Then the Lord was hare, or his plenipo tentiaries was upon the earth with full authority to treat them, and one treatment was generally sufficient. They knew them better then, and the llrst outbreak wus treated. Some of them hud as high us seven devils cast out of them before they could smile the smile of intelligence and contentment. Hut now alas civiliza tion must build asylums and coufioe the more vicious while the docile that only shoot off their mouth aie allowed to run u' large and spread the disease germs just as they find congenial soil. Like all parasites they flourish best in a dry atmos phere, hence their wonderful increase b Nebraska from 'fto to '9*1 inclusive. Hut from later indications it is be lieved that the good Lord will sub stitute rain for, saints which there is no doubt will have the same effect as to casting out devils. Last fall during the campaign when the editor of this paper told some of the leaders that the pass business would be a wedge to hurt the popu lists, we were laughed at by some, others agreed; and such is proving to be the case. There is nothing that has so stirred up our farmer brethren as this (|uestiou where the St ite ollicials have admitted they took all the passes they could get.' The is*ue is not dead yet and we believe the fusion forces are strong enough to weed out until party pledges will mean something. Last fall the Journal gave as loyal support to the state ticket as it could, excuse d the pass ((uestion on the ground that the other fellows had took passes too, and that the populists had made a good record. Now we are going to (juit. Puss grabbing can didates will get no support from us, even it we have to sit on tbe fence and let the procession go by. This idea of continually setting a prece dent that platforms and pledges don't mean anything, is played out. Ord Journal, (populist) p...

The great number of failures it planting cedars and other evergreens lias gone far to discourage furthei attempts to succeed, personally, fail ure lias far outrun any success in in) own bard work and years of watch ing and waiting. But while I gol nothing for ruy wora or purchase money, I gained valuable knowledge. 1 do not suppose that I half way un derstand the subject now, but I know several tilings I did not know at the beginning Fikst—A seedling will die in five minutes if exposed to tiie sun and air. Mr. flili, of Dundee, III. lias tested this for forty years. In mov ing plants I use my hand to grasp the roots and earth arouud them, press it into a ball and use paper or rags to hold it there. This done and I never loose a plant. In lift ing plants a past* of mud should be right at hand and the plant roots iro merced in it and left there, or in some shape equally safe. Keep the air and sun away from the roots. Keconii—Shade the plant the whole summer after planting. They will live without it sometimes, but the shading the first year is the true plan, old barrels, kegs, boxes open above and below, plant iuside is best, pickets driven in the ground a few inches from the plant on south side, and s. e. and s. w. corners do very well where the pickets are close enough to exclude the sun. Never cover the plant so as to exclude the light. Third—Iso your spade liberally, pulverize the ground well for two feet or more in depth, and that much or more m diameter. Throw back the mellow earth, put the plant in the center, loots well straightened out in natural shape, pour in pail of water, plunge both hands iuto the mud and see to it that wet earth fits every part of your plant roots, then mulch for three feet all around if.

There were more trusts formed tn the United States in lSflS than any in the history of these combines, and this in the face of the Sherman law which makes it a crime to combine for the restriction of production. A trust is an octopus that will prove dangerous to foster, and if the Jaw now on the statutes of the United States does not make it the duty of someone to compell respect for it. it should be speedly amended. ¥ r " Up to the present time the pop country papers genera'ly, have not heard of the selling of their souls lor a few pieces of silver by auditor Cornell, or at least they have failed to make it known if they have, and news papers are supposed to keep their readers posted.
