Oar Independent friend are mak
ing BtroncouH efforts to make the peo-
plo boliovo that tho Amoncan work-
ingman, and the American farmer,
and the Amoriean mechanic, and eo
on, aro dreadfully misused, and it is
wonderful how readily pcoplo believe
ail of those falsehoods, whon upon in
vestigation they can bo made as thin
as air. The editor of this paper has
put in Iwentj-seven years as labor
ing mn in the art of printing and we
have never knows r of a time in
that number of years butjwhat a good
honest, sober man eould get werk at
good wages if he so desired, lie has
never been idle a day for want of work
There is plenty of work and wages
that are sufficient, and large enough
for any man to lay a foundation of a
fortune if properly saved. Thero is
no czouHO for a man to ery calamity
except for his own stupidity in not
carefully taking care of his money.
The man who has been and is to-day
making extravagant uses of his mon
ey, will sooner or later he fitted to be
a calamity howler. That's what
makes thorn. Money is plenty now,
wacs are good, and the man that
docs not improve his opportunities to
better his eonditions should blame
himself and not some one else for his
misfortune

Every day MoKcighan is losing
votes in this eounty. We haya heard
f at least a hundred men in the last
few days who voted for MoKcighan
last year that will vote the republican
ticket this year. The change is com
ing fast and certain.
This paper has differed at times
widely with Editor Rosewater in many
things politically and othorwise, but
in ate Ight for a olean republican tiok
et he his pre-eminently in the right.
No man whose reoord is not abore re
proaoh should be foisted upon the
publie for political honors.
What the people of country need
oat ia honesty of purpose, and in
vestigation. Look at and study the
democratic and people's party and see
if it is possible for either one to
do aa muoh for you as tho republican
party has. If you find that thoy
have not and oannot, then vote for the
party that has helped, you and that is
there pnblioan party.
It scorns to us thst the American
workiagmen, who are better fed and
better paid than in any other country
on earth, would beoome tired of the
great calamity cry that they are all
paupers. It gives ono a disposition to
take emetics to hear the fellows tell
how poverty atricken the boys are
in the faoe of the faot that men are
getting from 12.60 to $5 a day for
common labor, with perhaps a few ex
ceptions. As a general rule, labor is
getting its just recompense where the
workman is qualified to do the work.
Wc were talking with an Indepen
dent this week who was deploring the
low wages of tbe poor men who were
working for Oarneigie, When told
that those men woro gotting $1.80 to
$20 a day, his eyes opened to tho
faot that somo one had made misstate
ments, He had no idea that euoh
was Ve case, as the independent pa
pers had been holding truth baok, in
order to blind euoh as he until aftor
election. There is no oxonie for a
man to be ignorant and uninformed
in Amerioa if be will read Niws-
fAfibb, and not listen to calamity
wailinn that are as false aa old Nick
At the reunion in Superior, there
seems to have been some political
spoeohes in which .our independent
friends took exceptions. A lady made
a republican speech and in it referred
to republican soldiers, when one of
eur Red Cloud independent's rose up
and declared that there wero as many
independent soldiers as republican
present, but the cries of nol noil nolll
as they went up from hundreds of re
publican throats fully demonstrated
that tho old soldier remained loyal to
tho reprblioan party which lias given
him tho magnificent pension system.
A few soldiers have been led astray
but aro generally returning to the old
party.
A few of the demooratio papers in
the western counties of this district
are in favor of having MoKeighan en
dorsed by the democrats at Red Cloud
September 1. If a few of these edi
tors would oome to Webster and look
up Mao's prospeots they would soon
consider him not "In it." The good
demoorats of this oouaty will cast
their ballot for a bolter man than he

Judge Cronnse, as well as the entire

thie fall. No better man in thia elate
could have been selected for a leader of

honest oitizon.nnd one that will do our
state honor.
