Tim cbairmnn of tho Roberts com mittee says thu report on tint case will tin made in about two works, unless some tinoxpcetfd complication turns up to ditliiy it. The agents of tho South African re. public are showing good judgment in .sending to America for recruits. Tho Britishers also have a great liking for the American mule. Bryan is at present busily engaged in learning the r roper way to ride an ostrich. Ho will no doubt prove a big drawing card during thu coming county fair season. Tho amount of business done in this city during the year 1801) exceeds any year in tho history of tho town. This mums all lines of business, and not a few particular kinds of business. And now Windy Allen denies that anyone assisted him in seeming his ap pointment as United States senator, stories about having boon appointed -011 account of a telegram from Hrynn to tho contrary notwithstanding. Whilo Senator llanna has signed tho call fer tho national republican con vontinn, as chairman of the national committee of that party, it does not follow from this that he proposes to aot as chief manager of tli campaign for noxt year 1 Tint wife of Aguinnldo, who was re ported to bavo committed suicide rath- or than fall into the bauds of the Amer icans, gave herself tip to the American authorities in the Philippines. She no 110 doubt concluded It safer to be alive under our Hag than it was to be dead under the Hag of her liege lord. m w Tho Nebraska congressmen have re- iceived their garden seeds from the .government, and are ready to send them out upon request of tlieireon- stituents at home. Any one wishing siiih of these seeds should forward thoir request to tho congressman from their district befoie January 10th 1 m As a member of the committee on "coinage, weights and measures," II D. Sutherland has at last an opportunity-to learn that very little silver was coined under freu coinage and sixteen to one, whilo an immense amount has been coined since 187!). It is not like ly, however, that ho will admit any such state of afTalts whou becomes back to Nebraska. "Inert, lethargic, doing nothiig, waiting for something to turn tip, i-p-ullsts bavo not availed thciuselv. s of their opportunity," savs the Philadel phia American, tho most prominent populist paper in tint United States. Just 011 tho ovo of choosing dates for national conventions, this sort of talk is significant anil creates an impiession that things look bluo at tint pop head qttaiv . Tne county treasurer is doing a good jib of collecting back person' taxes, anil tho number of distress wm rant'i Usuedjand served on people who nro in the b 'it of letting their taxes take c.ire oi 'inselvos is surptising. There aio hoik pcoplo who t'lluU that if they lot their taxe ru.i long enough that tho county treasurer is suppposcd to lot th "denil pnt bury its dead taxi's" but tli present treasurer Hunks different, If 3011 owo any pcrionul lnxi'8 you bntttir sbow up around tho county treasurer's oflleo boforo thu mighty arm of tho law shows up on your promises with 11 distrust warrant Hrran hnving nunounccd Hint bo in going east to make speeches, the pcoplo are preparing to niaku him explain tho failuro of his predictions recorded in tho "First Hattlo." Ho may think that ho is coming oast to dismiss tho oxpan ion iiicHtion, but bo will find that cmii'iiil Intel ust is centered around tho money question, and that tho "enemy's country" is thoroughly loaded with ar guments and proofs. TI10 smoko from tho numberless factory chimneys in tho oast will cause William to bavo a bud cough and will bring tears in his eyes before ho gets through. "A boy wont after a pail of water," says an exchango. "It was necessary to prime the pump each timoaud givo a dozen or liioro strokes at tho handlo to start tho witter. Ho poured in Mm priming and pumped out as much as ho bad poured in. Then ho stopped to rest and tho piiming ran down again After two o" three boms of alternate pumping and resting bo concluded it did not pay to pump, ,nd therefore quit in disgust. The story reminds uh of tho merchant who ndvcrtiM-d a few weeks and then stopped a while and allowed tlie people to forget him and bis business before he advertised any more, and concluded it did not pay to advertise. -Tho movement to place tho clerks of members of the house on tho annual pay roll and to require them to he sworn in, which failed in tho last com gross, is being agitated again The law provides that each member be allowed $1,1200 a year for the employment of a clerk All the members draw this money, but, it is an open secret that many of them use but a small portion of it to hire a clerk Sumo have their wlve, daughters, sons, or other relatives in some instances school children -ign vnuebeis as clerks timt they pocket the money themselves, and many emplo cleiks as cheap as they can get them and keep what remains of the $100 per mouth, after paying them. A complication litis arisen which will no doubt keep .Judge Duffy in his pres ent position for the next two years It seems that the law requires tho newly elected olllcers to tile their bonds and bavo them approved by thu county hoard on or before tho llrst Thursday after tho llrst Tuesday in January in order to qualify for and take tho olllce. This has not been done by the newly elected judge and thu prusont incum bent retains tho oflleo as a hold-over. James DulTy has been n just judge and wn believe he is the choice of tho gen oral public for this olllce. The machi nations of a number in his own party knocked him out of the nomination last fall. They did not want him for several reasons. Tho present status of tho affair seems to suit a largo number. Tho selection of a candidate for tho vice presidency is at preterit agitating the republican leaders. Sometimongo it was concede I that a New Yorker should bo chosen, although it was also talked that a Nehraskau on the ticket would add strength in the western -tates. Since the failuro of tho New Yorkers to agree upon a man there is smmt liif ihium in tin N..I11 uubn IL' .mil it is ...mil,... ti,,.. .1 r, , president may come from west of Iho Missouri liver. Tin fact that Nobisu ka lias two senators to elect makes this all the more possible While the dec toi :il vote of our state mav not be an important factor in the selection of a president, the possession of two sen atorships is all important, and the con test in Nohraska is to receive the ut most attention from both cat tics, no matter who is on thu presidential ticket Considerable is being said about tho beginning of the twentieth century as to whether il began last Monday or whether it will begin one year hence. There are some who still con tend that December ill cloned the nine teenth century. However, should you meet one ol this kind just ask him if lie would bo willing to tako ninety-nine dollars for a debt of one hundred dol lars and see how quick ho will change his tune. Ninety-nine years don't make one hundred years or a century any more than ;iiitiety-niiio dollars makes a hundred dollars. You can tike ninety-nine dollars and add ten Iiiikk in it and you will have 0110 bun in it il liars, and you can tako ninety nine ears ami add twulvo mouths to it ami jou will have one hundred yeais r a century.

In tho meantime those who have places in tho city cro continually on tho look out for hotter ones, and the "work wanton" advortlsomonts como from tho latter class. In tho city of Wash ington thoro aro probably moro people out of work than thoro aro jobless poo plo in tho statu of Nebraska. Yet thu advertisements for men to go out in tho woods and down on the plantations to do hard work would not meet with a dozen responses. Thoy nro not look ing for that kind of work. Thoy have tho "town fover." This explnins why tho pcoplo will bo out of woik in Omaha, whilo other people will he bunting for workmen at Arlington, twenty miles away. It is said that a majority of tho dem ocratic national committee had a cau cus tlie other day at. Washington and decided to depose James K. Jones tho chairman, ami put in bis place a now management headed by ex-Senator Gorman, and that Mr. Bryan is privy to the arrangemonts The now man agement is pledged to go on and nomi nate Bryan just as if nothing had hap pened. The deal will leave out many great men who have waxed famous in the last four years by their persistent nomination of Mr. Bryan ouco a foil night for president in HIOO. It means tlie relegation to obscurity of Stone and the Missouri ring, Altgeld of Illi nois, Tillman of South Carolina, and others of the same general de sciiptiou. It means the surrender of tho management to democrats who have turned a very cold shoulder to Bryauism in thu past audjliavo served him under compulsion with a sour face. It is a funny move, but is char ncteristic of democratic polities in tlie present ago A change of horses in the middle of the stream always indi cates that somebody is scared. It. is probable that the liryauitcs are really listening to the croakings of tho lank and tile of tlie party and. the dismal predictions of uttei failure on the Chi cago pl.itfouu and have concluded to unload the platform and tho men who made it with one tilt of tho apple cart. Whether Mr. Bryan is to fall out of the vehicle at the same time is to bu sucn by and by. Stato Journal A.l'iiiladelnhia physician advances a theory which, while given in a spirit of jest, nevertheless is based upon authen tic scientific principles.
