y Is the way we see it staled at the
head of our fusion papers now days.
Say boys hadn’t you better put a
minus mark after both names! It
indicates theii value to the country
to a dot.
Count Von Wuldersee of Germany,
who was to have taken charge of the
aliieb forces in China, will leave his
country for the Orient some time
this fall. But then it don't matter
much, Yankee push has relieved the
strain and liberated the legationers,
so that Europe may have ample time
to finish her nap, as her people are
safe too.
The Times, in an editorial last
week, says that the Republicans
had nominated \V. J. Fisher for as
sessor but that ‘ the Republicans
would not staud it.” Stand what?
Hro. Brown. Mr. Fisher is compe
tent, and you can't question Ins lion
csty. The facts are you just wanted
to say something about some one and
dido,t know who else to attack neith
er could you lind a charge to make,
so you just said what your owner
told you as you did in the ward heel
er article. Vou should always swal
low with a little salt what Hie ren e
gado part of an\ party tell you and
especially in this case.

Onii’.lm, Aug. -0.—The outlook fer
the re-election of President McKinley
grows brighter each d,iv. Judged fro.a
the prosperous conditions that evi-t
I-very where In the I nited State-, and
from the magtrdiceiit adiiduistrai i-m
of affairs during the past four years
Ills re-election has never keen doubted
for a moment. We find, however,
other forces working, though ]?-■. pow
erful and less important, than those
above referred to, that are worthy of
notice. In looking over the list o! leg
guns in the Populistic end Democratic
party we find them one by one drop
ping out of rank and announcing
themselves for McKinley. Noted
among these Is Hie Hon. A. M. Steven
son of Denver, Colorado. Mr. Steven
son will he remembered as chairman
of the Colorado Tell-r Republican
state committee and one of those who
walked out with Teller from the St.
Louis convention in lS'Jd. L\ Senator
Lee Mantle of Montana is another of
those Silver Republicans who fol
lowed Senator Teller in ’iiii. lie, like
Stevenson, announces that not only
will he refuse to support Bryan, but
Unit In* will use every effort to secure
till* IV-electlon of I’l'e iileiit M* Kil'ley.
fix Senator W. A. I 'i ff. r of Kan- ,
one of the most widely known popu
lists in tin* United States, Inn willed
the past ten days made positive an
nouncement of His intention to support
McKinley, Fuming nearer home we
tlml the Hon. .1. F. Boyd, Nebraska's
only Deuidcrutlc governor, nun niuelng
that In* will not support Mi', Bryan ■
this year. Mr. Boyd, howoi r ■
not announce t! at la* will support .V
Kit t ley. W. F. W.'ppich, one of
tin* stalwart Democrats of Omali t. an
officer of tin* kite Km as (' ty conven
tion and n delegate to tin* late Demo
cratic slate convention; the lion. K.
Wyman, at tin* present time a member 1
of the state legislatin'* from Buffalo
county, an* among Hi -e prominent In
Nebraska polities wito refuse to stand
for Bryan and his fallacies, in his an
nounccnient, W. F. WappicU brands
iinperiuiistn as a false issue and an
nounces in Ids discussion of the Philip
pine question that Mr. Bryan lam put
the cart before tin* horse. In speak
ing of this important subject Mr. Wap
pieli says: *1 atn n thorough belli ver
In the course being pursued by the
present administration as regards the
Philippine islands. 1 can think of no
other course of procedure for the « n o
lion of stable government there. First
of all order must lie wrought out of
chaos and the Filipinos forced to re
spect the law. I "util this is done a
stable government for them is Impossi
ble and Independence for them is not
to be considered. After the establish
ment of law and order in the Philip
pines will la* tin* best time to consider
what kind of a government they are
lit for. 1 think the preaching of Fili
pino independence is premature. Mr.
Bryan probably knows that he is put
ting the cart ahead of tin* horse, but
by doing so he is enabled to use the
Filipinos for campaign purposes ami
that is all he wants to do.”

Benefits resulting from sound finan
cial legislation promulgated by the au
thorized representatives of the Repub
lican party are beginning to fall into
the hands of the people
Already the rate of interest on farm
and real estate loans has dropped to
about 5 per cent, which means a sav
ing alone in interest to the debtors of
Nebraska of more than $1,0(*0,UIK) per
year.
Four years ago it was difficult to
borrow money on good security at less
than 10 per cent, and very few if any
loans Were made at a lower tale than
s per cent. Today money is abundant
at r. and o' . per cent The figures rep

there an* many fu loiiists who refuse
to excuse 1dm or condone his offenses,
even on tin* ground of partisanship,
'rim manner in with li he bus managed
the state institutions Is gradually coin
ing to light, and It is a continuous
story of shameful ineompoteruy and
fraud. Nor should Governor Poynter
be permit ted to escape righteous retri
bution. He has persisted in interfering
with the management of each institu
tion and be therefore bee-lines jointly
ami directly responsible for the evils
thereof. When it is said that Ills ad

tHo rest for ineotupetency, discord,
