The republican papers thi* week will
contain a repott made bv tbe I’rout In
vestigating Committee. The report was
submitted to and revised by tbe republi
can campaign committee. Tho charges
made against tbe populist officials
are not substantiated by the evidence.
Said charges are made at random, re
gnrdless of truth in hopes of deceiving
the voters. There will be a times when
the investigating committee? Will he
an boomerang to the republcan parly.—
Times Independent.
The above was written in the
Name spirit by which tho democratic
party accumulated the warp and
woof from which they wove the
populist party i. e. deception. If
the report of the Front committee
was first submitted to the Republi
can campaign committee for revision
bow did the editor of the Times find
it out? If he will explain to bis
readers how he got his information,
they will be in shape to the better
judge as to its reliability. If such
is the facts the people should know
it. Rut if this important bit of
knowledge only exists in the mind
of the writer of the above, then they
should catch on also. Ah to the
charges, well, they are all made un
der oath and some of them by Hitch
widely known men as (), F. liedlund,
and others by York county men
whose names are attached, and who
are ready to accept the consequence
of their affidavits if any one wishes
to tiring suit against them for libel
As for the man Simon, every as
seriion lie swore to has been verified
by an examination cf the ballots
themselves and other corroborative
evidence, but then the populist slate
officers aught to know him best he
was one of them when the crime was
committed, and turning states evi
dence should not save a man when
he is striking at the instrument of
our civil rights which w« must pro
tect or antler the consequences. Ret
all who accept the above statements
of the Times as facts, go get the evi
dence as taken under oath and judge
fur themselves whither the charges
are suhstunciatcd by the evidence or
not, and ascertain from the sworn
statements of men whose veracity
is not questioned at home whither
they believe the committee has re
ported “regardless of truth” or
whither the evidence is there under
oath just as claimed and therefore
the fact staring them in the face that
it is they who “hope to deceive the
voters,” lor a knowledge by the
voters of the disgraceful acts of their
'97 recount committee, will relegate
them to deserved oblivion hence
forth and forever.
The time for that “Boomerang”
arrived when Simon first “peached”
on your cherubs at the state house.
It then began to return to the fel
lows who manufactured it and the
longer it keeps coming the more
force it gathers until now the sworn
statements of houest men fasten a
crime upon your party that is more
heinous than that of Bartley, and
yet you endeavor to shield them by
half hearted attempts to ridicule the
honest work of a committee as lion
estly appointed and clothed with the
same authority as your committee
of '97, they were created by the
same power that created yours. The
only difference beiog that your party
placed at their disposal $10,1)00 to
defray expenses of which they used
it all (if there was any left we are
willing to be corrected) but when the
Front committee was allowed I'J.OoO
to ascertain if the charges of fraud
made against your parly was true,
the governor, (the same fellow who
said the First Nebraska boy a were
uol entitled to any thanks) vetoed
the b|l| and the I'rout committee hail
to root hog or die.
Now geutlemen if you are what

Up S«nt (hr Pork.
Professor Comstock of Cornell In
speaking to his class on the trials of
scientists told this anthentic tale of the
experience of a professor of invertebrate
zoology in a sister institution, which
had better be left nameless.
Trichime in pork, the cause of the
frightful disease trichinosis in human
consumers, give a peculiar appearance
to meat, which is studded with little j
cysts, it is then known to the trade as
“measly pork.” The learned scientist,
wishing some for study, went to the
butcher and asked if he ever got any
measly pork.
“•Sometimes,’’ said the hatcher cau
tiously, “but I always throw it away.”
“Well,” said the professor, “the next
time you have any I wish you’d send
me up some,” meaning, of course, to his
laboratory.
The batcher stared at him, but said
he would. Three weeks passed, when
the professor, growing impatient, again
dropped in.
“Haven’t yon found any measly pork
yett”
“Why, yes,” said the butcher. “1
sent up two pounds a week ago."
A sickly grin broke over the pro
fessor's face.
“Where did you send it?” said he.
“Why, to your house, of course,” said
the butcher.—Kansas City TiuioH.
Jerry’* Version of It,
A prominent Detroit woman with a
great interest in juvenile mission work
has this excellent anecdote to tell:
One of her classes in u certain mis
sion is composed of little street children
to the number of 20 or more whose
ages range from 3 to 3. Most of the
scholars are boys, though now and then
one notices the pinched face of a little
daughter of poverty in the ranks.
The other day the lesson wus on the
peculiarities of English. Words that
ure pronounced alike and spelled differ
ently and words that are pronounced
differently but spelled nlike were dis
cussed at length. She explained the dif
ference between lead the metal and
lead the verb, and the children grasped
the point instantly. Then she took the
two words “week” and “weak.” Hhe
explained the difference in the meaning
and use to the tots, and then called up
a little fallow, aged 0, to use the word
“weak” in a phrase. The little fellow
thought a moment, then answered, “A
weak old woman.” The teacher nodded
her approval, and smiled Into the eyes
upturned to hers.
“Now, Jerry Ryan,” she said, turn
ing to another little lioy, “you take the
word ‘week’ and use it in a phrase.”
Jerry thought a minute, and then,
he, too, replied, “A week old baby.”—
Detroit Free Press.
Ilia Final Ilrqoeat,
A Scotch farmer, celebrated in liia
neighborhood for his immense strength
and skill in athletic exercises, very fre
quently had the pleasure of contending
with people who came to try their
strength against him. Lord D., a great
pugilistic amateur, went from London
on purpose to fight the athletic Scot.
The latter was working in an inclosure
at a littledistunce from his house when
the noble lord arrived. His lordship tied
his horse to a tree and addressed the
farmer. “Friend, I have heard marvel
ous reports of your skill and have come
a long way to sfie which of us two is
the better wrestler.”
The Scotchman, without answering,
seized the nobleman, pitched him over
the hedge and then set about working
again. Whon Lord D. got up, “Well,”
said the farmer, “have you anything
to say to me?”
“No,” replied his lordship, “but per
haps you’d be good enough to throw me
my horse.”—Public Opinion.
Fouled the ratiengfrii.
A man sitting in an electric car the
other day pulled out of his pocket his
handkerchief, when out sprang what
seemed to be n snake. It wriggled and
jumped around on the floor at a great
rate. The ladies screamed and huddled
together, the men made for it, and one
stumped his foot on it, but upon exami
nation it proved to be a copper wound
bass piano wire, which the man with
the handkerchief had coiled up in his
pocket and, having become uncoiled,
jumped to the floor. How the women
looked daggers at him after they be
came quieted down was a caution. He
Boon got off, we premium to put it in
the piano that needed it, not because of
the looks of the women.—Kalem Ga
zette.
