'rhere is always more .or p ' less of such leaven working in the political loaf , but at timcs it IJ comes to tbe 1urface and moves Of. ] the wbole mass. Whcther it ' ' will at tbis time result in a politi- 1' cal upheaval-as did when" s ( I Cleveland was so unexpcctedly elected , is for the succeeding II year to prove. Among the more $1 conservative leaders of the repub- repub40 licall party this fact is realized , 40 and to this more than allytbing else is their desire for the lot re- nomination of L ooseveJt. 'l'hat $ . ' " . the mass of the people are satis- fied with Roosevelt is clear , but nCI $ ' " they are doubtful of any Qther - ( name , even of ' ! 'aft , who is sup- posed to be tbe heir apparent. supGc ' 'rhe cam es of this unrest arc not in too certain or well definecI. It is 1 something Wee the recent panic h7 : Vh in the money marJeet-nobody knows just wh ) ? , but every body ( is WL afraid of something or other. , But the effects of tbe political tw ; unrest are just . as certain as those oft b e monetary situtation. WI ; These may not be pleasant facts SIS fr the. republican party to fac ; , C clther In the whole sint country or In . (1f state of Nebraska , but that pari t eY"are facts is apparent to the R most casual observer. What can Wh be done S101 or what may be done to overcome this B tbrcatenc1 ! earth quake we do 110t at this time at- Wh tempt to forsce or disc"ss. That at51S ( it means something to those who H have " C 1\ been "running " \ things" berebioc tofore IS certain. Whetber they will head , and if they head will PI be able to' help , are things of the Mul future. $350 HI There is more or less astonishDi tt ment over the seriousness with tev wbich some of tile higher officers . . .1101 of the army have discusscd the a question of conscription as a { method whereby to fill the depleted - " . pleted Tanks , of enlisted men. WI . The alternative is higher pay. f The army must be keep up to the standard of numbers is essential. /0 / ] Paper companies and "skeleton- 1 . . , bcd owmands"-all head and $ _ SO.I no body-cannot perform those IIu services for which the regular JoseI ; , \ army is needed in times of emerg- ency. Desertions alld refusals to _ _ enlist have reduced the ranks , ' ! .woefully of late , but the faIlure ; \ I of recruiting' officers-witb the inducements at their command- to secure an adequate supply of original enlistments , is at the root of the ' ' arJny's trouble Announcement that the president ana republican leaders ill cOllg- ress arc fairly well agreed that a general horzontal uplift ill pay should and must be made , ought to be followed by public SUpport. Objections upon the score of economy are not worth consicIera- t on , and partizan objections ought to be IJ futile. The army is a non-partizan institutation , ever has been and al will ways be. Both unreasonable and unjust is it to expect a soldi"r-however raw a recruit he may be-to perform - form his manifold and often severe dutie1 ! , to venture his life and shed his blood , upon occasions , for a hire so pitiful that any ditch diger I or Dago section - tion laborer recei Yes more. Let us hope the army increased pa , } ' il1 when , it comes up for hearIng - Ing , be accorded prompt and cordial consjderation. - , - " Recent developmc.nts ill court , proceedings indIcate that John D.
