He is a little j blow as ihe campaign has been opened for emne time. A few democitalic politicans want t > quit ttie Philippines, but tbe great | iiui^s of democrats throughout the country, representing the good, husky American spirit, will not fol low their lead. And thats whats the matter with Bryan. The Litchfield Monitor took an j upper cut punch at the Times last week and landed square ou its lack of intelligence bump. There is only one way for Brown to get even with him, and that is to resume his old taotics of looking wise and saying nothing more about that particular subject. If the Bee is correct the people of Omaha are an unprincipled set. It claims that Mercer’s money was dealt out in “large gobs” to secure fa vorable delegations. This, of course means that the people of that town are willing to sell their votes at any old price. We are inclined to think that the Bee man is a little off. Per haps Governor Savage has given him too much to thing about lately. President Roosevelt ba9 been ob liged to abandon his tour of the west. While on his way he was obliged to undergo a surgical oper ation at Indinapolis last Wednesday, the result of the trolley accident at Pittsfield, Mass. The injury was just below thh left knee and on bis arrival at lndianoplis the litub wus badly swolen and whs giving him great pain, and he was taken to the honpital at once for treatment. He was to have been in Nebraska next Saturday, having made dates for Kearmey, Grand Island, Hastings, Fremont and Omaha. When your Populist mid Dem ocratic fri uds suggests free trade to kill the trusts tell him you do not w.'mU to bum down the barn to get rid of the lie as. Then remind him of a few facts and usk him to chew tli ai over; first, that the onlv law on tho statute books to regulate the irusts was past by tho republican C n vless; s : md, that this law was it, force during a democraeic admin istration and that not a finger was lifted bv ttic democratic Attornev General to u-e it against the trusts; third, that a republican administra tion n using the law ami is now proceeding agrinst, the beef trust arid the Northern Securities merger. Finally, a*k your democratic and populist friends if common sense does not dictate that the republicans have done, can do and will do more to regulate the trusts than the dem ocrats. It ia tbe fashion of certain popu list and democratic politicians to claim that the United Statesis now maintaining a kind of Negrolike tyranny in the Philippines. Aside from the consideration that tbe | “United States" meaus the people I of this country, who are not tyrants, : not negros, but a pretty good lot of | fellows, there is the fact that the | American Congress bestowed a bill of rights” on the Philipinos. That bill of rights is a guarantee of just ice from every dweller in the Island. It provides that no man shall be de- 1 prived of life, liberty or property without due process of law; that the priveloge of the writ of habeas cor pus shall be the same as in this country, and as every man knows the writ of habeas corpus is one of the great guarantors of personal justice; that bail shull he allowed; j that the accused persons shall J have aright for counsil, a speedy trial, the compulsory attendance of witnesses in his behalf; shall not he jeapordy for the same offence, and so on, through a long list of benidts and immunities. The Pilipinos never have dreamed of such u meas ure of liberty. It is certain they would not have recieved it if tbe Democratic program of scuttle had been adopted and Aguutaldo per mitted to establish his despotism in the Islands The Times intimates that the people should support Mr. Mathew for county attorney because he has a large number of cases in couit. Suppose he has, at one time he had j the Loup City township bond case j in court. It is not the number of cases that a lawyer has, but the merit of his cases and his ability to win them that gives him a good record as an.attorney. We will ad mit that he has three to one mot* | cases in court than Mr. Pedler. He lias a faculty of working up more cases while Mr. Pedler has a faculty of getting little differences settled I out of court, thus, instead of creating 1 large sums of costs, saves the would ! be litigants much time aud money. Tbe Times says that lawyer Math ew has invested in a new $10.00 a vol. law library. That was the proper thing to do. He needed it to read up on the bond question and perhaps hundreds of other ques tions. Despite the repeated protests of tbe 1 Bee, congressman Mercer won tbe j bard fought battle at the primaries last Friday, carrying seven out of the nine wards of tbe city of Omaha j and enough of the country precincts to make his nomination sure. DYSKNTKKT UVKEU WITHOUT THE AID OK A DOCTOK. “1 am just up from a hard spell of the flux” (dysentery) say Mr. T. A. Pinner, a well known merchant of Drummond, Tenn. “ I used one small bottle of Chamberlain,s Colic, Cholera aud Diar rhea Remedy and was cured without having a doctor. I consider it the best cholera medicine in the world.” There is no need of employing a docter when this remedy is used, for no doctor can prescribe a better medicine for bowel complaint in any forih either for children or adults. It never falls and is pleasant to take. ' For sale by Odendabl Bros. .—. 1 1 BIS SIGHT THKEATKNEII “While piculclng lust month ray 11 year-old boy whs poisoned by some weed or plant," says W . II.
