Fusion will be the worst whipped - I
ped dog that ever ran away froUl
the po1itical boneyard. Neithcr
de'Ulocrats nor popu1iists will sup-
p rt the ticket or vote it.-Kear-
ney Democrat.
Watson in his accepance
speech for thc nomination for
president by the populist party
said :
"I have no words of abuse for
Tlicodor Rees velt. I belei ve
him to be a brave. honest , con-
sciencious man. I give hitn full
I credit for having a splendid
courage of conviction. "
Our potie ) ? toward the Philippines -
pines i well told in the following
extract from Mr. Roosevelt's
speech of acceptance : "We have
established in the islands a
government by Americans assisted -
ed by Filipinos. We are steadily
striying to transform this into
a self-government assisted by
Americans. "
Congressman Kinkaid is re-
leived of having to look after his
political fences durJng this caUl- .
paign. His effectual work in' '
the1 sf s ssion of Congress made
s elect on sure with increased
ihajori ties. He can now give his I
hole time in looking after the' '
Ihterests of his constituents
hich he is doing faithfully.
President Roosevelt is uot
nly at the head of the republi-
an ticket fn Nebraska , but he
.
undoubtedly will be in the lead
of . votes cast next November.
Bitt we predict that Treasurer
Mb'hensen and Governor Mickey
\Vill . not be far . . . . . behind when the
allots have been counted. 'l'hey
ooth have been. tried and were
. 10t found wanting.
"The paramount issue of the
republican party in the coming
mpaign will be , as it always
lias been , 'The welfare and
iappiness of the American people ,
the progress and development of
the American nation. ' There
never has been an hour from the
time that the civil war closed , on
an average , down to the bcginu-
ing of the administration of Gro-
v'er Clevcland when the republican -
can party did not pay off$174,000 ,

of the indebtedncss of this coun-
try-evcry blessed hour that . ) 'ou
and I ha vc Ii ved since t hc ci viI
war.li'rom Congressman Dur-
kett's speech in the IIous in rc-
ply to Mr.Villiams , the democratic -
cratic lcader.
tn , speaking of the democrat :
platform . , Candidate 'Vatson .
says :
"I call upon the six and a half
million voters whose political
faith was cryst 11izcd in the
Chicago platform of 18W ) and in
the Kansas City platform of 1900 ,
and I ask , What is thcre in the
Democratic platform of 1904 that
bids YOU hope ? 'What is there
for YOR iu that platform ? 'Vhat
do YOU get out of it ? ' 1'0 what
cxten t does Parker reprcsent you ?
What IS it he proposes to do tor
you ? If you believe in Hepubli-
can doctrincs , why vote for
Parker ? Why not 'go the whole
, hog or none' and vote for Hoes -
velt ? By what right do the
Democratic leaders undertal < c to
preach and expound to the
American people an ) ' economic
questions ? How do we know
that the\ ' have studied and mas-
tcred any of thosc questions ?
In the 'Vcltatlc - st , the drift
is all iu the republican direction.
Parker h s no personal following"
outside of a few Eastern States ,
and the chances arc that he will
carry none of those. He lacks
the vigor and personal popularity
of Roosevelt. mven though
Parker's friends pretended that
his nomination would iusure a
big campaign fund to the Demo-
. . .
crats , there IS no good reason to
su'ppose that the soild business
interests of New York wiB go to
him. He mayor ma.r not be
better than his part.r , but it is
certain that his .triumph would
put his party in power , and that
circumstances is calculated to
keep him from carrying New
York this year. The swing of
Democratic newspapers in the
west over to the Republican side
is an evidence that the Mississippi -
pi valley and the Pacific slope
are going to roll record brealdng
majorities for the Republicans in
1904.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Huh ! .
The democrats still cling to
the theory of free trade in the
face of the preponderence of evidence -
dence against it in the past forty
years. Judge Parker practically
acknowledges the danger of
tampering with it by assuring the
public that the rcpublican tariff
law could not be changed during
his administration even should
he be elected , but yet he implies
in his speech in reply to his nofi- .
ficatlon that the democratlc.party
is still in favor of tariff for reve-
, ,
1me only. -
In 1860 when the repuBlican
.
party came into power.
it placed on the statute heel < s
its first protective tariff law.
Theil we were exporting about
ten million dollars worth of
forest products. We are now exporting -
porting six times that amount
annually. .
We were then exporting less
than one million dollars worth of
the products ot the mines. We
are now sending abroad annuall.r
over forty million dollars worth.
The Dingel > " law went into
effect July 24 , 1897 , after Mc-
Kinleys inauguration , is still on
the statute bool < s. Uuder it has
come prosperity to all c1asses ,
never before attained in the history -
tory of the country.
-The money in circulation has
increased from 1,506 milli6n dollars -
lars in 1896 , the year of McKin-
leys election to 2,503 millions on
'March 4 , 1904. 'l'he per capita

have increased in that time from

'l'he production of coal , Jig iron

'Phe cxports ot agricultural

of the imports in 18 % , formcd 38

these improved cond itions ca me
increascd wages , increascd im-
ployment and incrcased accumu-
lations. 'l'hc ulOney in the sa\-
ing bauks of imployces increased
from 1,907 million dollars in 18 %
to 2.935 millions in 1903 and the
numbcr of depositors from 5,065-
000 in 18 % to 7,305,000 in 1903.
Railroads passed out of the
hands of the rece'ers , milagc of
railroads has incrcased.
With this great activit ) ' and
prosperity has come an increase
in national wealth from 77 billions -
lions iu 1895 to 100 billions at the
prcsent time , placing the United
States at the head of thc list of
thc world's natious and with a
national wcalth actually 50 per
cent grcater than that of the
United Kingdom and as great as
Frauce and Germany combined.
With such stupendous facts in
favor of a protective tariff and
rcpublican polides it is not
strange that both the democratic
and populist parties are dying
for lack of followers. Every
branch of industry has been made
to prosper as never before and
the interest bearing debt of the
nation has gradually decreased
notwithstanding the great ex-
pcnse of the Spanish-American
War in that period. The debt
of 1,046 million dollars in 1899
has becn reduced to 895 millions
in 1904. And the per capita indebtedness -
debtedness taS b'een dccreased
since 1899 from $15 to $ tt at the
present timc ,
'l'he total tax lcvy on Broken
Bow this year is 66 mills instead
of 97 mills last year. 'l'lte same
ratio of rcduction maintains
throughout the county as a result -
sult of the new revenue law.
Yet our friendly contcmporary
across the ! reet persists that our
taxes , will be. higher under the
new revenue law than under the
old law.

'l'he new revenue law is growing -
ing in popularity with thc people -
ple as they become morc familiar
with it. .One of thc prtnciple
fcaturcs of it that meets the g-CII-
eral approval of l\te \ taxpaj'crs is
that the large moneypd intcrests
arc rcqaircd to pay an equal'
sharc of taxcs with the farmer.
'I'here are man ) ' instanccs of
record where thosc worth their I ,
tens of thousands have in ( ormcr
years been assessed for $1,000 ,
$2,000 or $3,000 arc this year assessed -
sessed at their' actual cash , 'aluc.
Another fcature of thc law that
has helped to cqualize taxes is
thc provision provding { for the
state board to equalize thc , 'alua- ,
tion of counties. With all
amendment giving the cqnaliztI- ;
tion board e\'cn greater powcrs

yiding for the c } ( ction of deputy
assessors will doubtlcss be made

f aturcs of the law ha'e proven
an improvcment ou the old l'.1w
