Trust Omaha to keep pace with other gambling marts. Edward Rosewater wants the II. S. senatorship, but the people don’t want Edward. We're with the peo ple. War between Russia and Japan seems now certain. AH diplomatic relations between the two countries have been broken off and the dove of peace has taken its flight elsewhere. Senator Tom Patterson of t'olora do. and editor of the Rocky Moun tain News, has withdrawn his sup port of the free silver idea, and ad mi's the people do cot believe in that Bryan tinted rainbow. Whew! An Iowa marriage reform league wants a statute requiring a physician’s certificate before a couple may wed. And on v.hat meat doth this Iowa Caesar league feed that it would thus defy Cupid? The Goebel murder case got into ihe National house the other day, tne Ken'uckv and Indiana delegations getting into sweat over the question of the return of Taylor to Kaintuek. The fun was fast and furious. Minnesota f"r the past number of days has been m the grasp of blind ing blizzards with imm use train blockades. Then comparing that with our balmy, beautiful weather of the weeks past, can you bl u<‘ us when we reiterate, ‘‘Stand up for Nebras ka?” Next Sunday wiil bo St. Valem tine’s day. It is whispered that in view ot that auspicious event many of our eligible bachelors are in a tre mor of expectancy. There need he no fears among the fair ones as to the delight of the recipients of such favors. We speak experimentally. Dietrteeh is having a full sena torial investigation into his alleged bribery iD connection with the Hast ings postotiioe scandal. Perhaps we may have it satisfactorily explained how a man can draw pay as a sena tor and yet not be amenable for acts done during the meanwhile. Old Senator Hoar is chief investigator and we incline to the opinion that Charles may possibly get more in-' vestigation than will fit well into his questionable conscience. _■. " 1 — Mister Oruzon, of N< braska, who made himself first known as door mat for I). E. Thompson, two leg. islatures ago, during the latter’s un successful though strenuous effort to break into the U. S. senate, and who { was rewarded by an appointment in the customs office at Porto Rico, where he made a second reputation, sufficient to relieve him from that post of duty, has returned home with blood at boiling heat and his j 1 scalping krife unsheathed ready to remove the caput coveiing from cer tain alleged ilcfamers of his reputa tion, and is said will add to the gay. et\ of the occasion by dancing over their heads and into the U. S. sen ate—if he can. It will be a modern (Ciufsuu dance. Heap big injun. The Loup City f trees for Christ are just now in the midst of a pitched battle against sin. F r a week and over, now, the battle h is been wag ' and new recruits are constantly dc setting the ranks of the enemy amt enlisting in the army of Christ. The city is getting such a turning over and changing in sentiment as r.evei before. Rev. Madely, the M. K minister, lias secured the services of an evangelist, the Rev. Jonee, who is raking over the dry bones, both in and out of the church, and the re sult is noted in conversions nightly. This is a pretty good experience for any community, and although our knowledge of Loup City inclines us to the opinion that it has a lit tle the best people it lias ever been our good fortune t live among, and we are thoroughly in earnest in so declaring, yet a go ut many, like the writer, n< d such an uncomfortable shaking up as is being done by the vigorous voting evangelist and the gentler admonitions of that prince of preachers, llev. Madely, loved and respected by all our people, both in and out of the church. From this secular pulpit, we find no hesitancy in commending the work being done Addison Waite of Otoe countv is mentioned for the office of secretary of state Having had a personal ae qnaintauce with Mr. Waite for sev eral years, v*e know him to be thor. ouglilv qualified f< the duties de volving upon one holding that im portant plaee of trust. The conven tion could select no In tter man than Addison Waite. V col ir ; I woman in Tennesse, an thentically claimed to have b *• n 125 years of age, died last week. Next. We thought it was about time TIfe Old Journal last week suggested W. H. Thomson for ofD c, vie pres idential candidate, if u pie.. • It would be a strange cam[ uyu.indeed, i in w hich the Little Giant ana not mentioned as a eaodidential prefer ence by the fusion forces. On Feb. 4th the last vestige of the American occupation of Cuba was removed. On that day the Ameri. can hag was lowered from the Ca bana barracks and the last battalion of American soldiers boarded the Lb j S. army transport and sailed for home. Cuba will now hoe her own rowe in the world’s battle. £ At the National editorial associa tion meeting in Washington last week Secretary Taft made some pertinent remarks, which are respectfully re ferred to our popocratic frieuds who have had so much to say against American occupation of the Philip pines. Gov. Taft should be good authority . He said the editors could help the American people in the Philippines bv denying tlie lies cir culated about the terrible climate there. He spoke of the necessity of \mervan capital and American citi /> ns in the islands and said what, was needed to m ike success certain there i the presence of desirable Americ ms of character. The islands I I he said, are a pleasant place to live! in, if one observes the ordinary rules I Of life. T jBIE R IE ST '1 W. 0. fioVEj* 8t CO.
