Bryan's statement that he will never again be a presidential candidate should be accompanied by an affidavit. Boston Record , The great bluster that the democrats have made against the rail road bill in congress for so long appaicntly had not much significance as all but twelve of them in the senate joined with the republicans last week in pas sing the bill. The democratic newspapers claim that the republican party is getting scared. The times when the republicans have been scared in the past have general ly been the times when they have won on election day. Ro chester Times. If Mr. Taft had accomplished nothing else as president , the wise judgment he has shown in the appointments he has made to the supreme court would suf ficiently entitle him to the grati tude and confidence of the coun try , Philadelphia Ledger. Just where Senators Dolliver and Cummins stand politically is a conundrum. They certainly "are not republicans. They in sist that the are not democrats , despite the fact that they are de livering stump speeches attack ing the administration with all the force at their command. Rochester Democrat and Chron- cle. In this issue of the RISPUHIJCAN appears the announcement of Ras Anderson for supervisor of Brok en Bow township , which is made subject to the republican vote at the primaries. Mr. Anderson is a man well capable of filling the position. > He is a man of public spirit and should he be the choice of the primaries we predict his election easy. Senator Burkett is the first senatorial candidate to announce his willingness to abide by the law passed by the last session of the Nebraska legislature ( democratic ) which provides for the election of the candidate to the United States Senate that receives the highest vote , without regard to the political complexion of the legislature. Are1 the democratic candidates willing to take , their own medicine ? With factional difference iron ed out the outlook for a fairly good sessional record is btcoming brighter. If the republicans can succeed in passing a substantial part of their program the two houses they will be in a vastly better position to enter the cam paign this fall than if nothing had been accomplished , and the threatening clouds of a few weeks ago will disappear before November. Detroit Free Press Taft's strength is rapidly becoming more appreciated. His high purpose ; his courage to battle for the right , are becoming more understood , and not so very many months will elapse before the American people will realize the truth of this prediction priv- fttelymade by President Roosevelt two mouths before Mr. Taft's nomination : "Before his first term shall have expired , Judge Taft will be the most popular and beloved President tnis coun try has had since the Civil War. " Ohio Republican LcagUc. President Taft shows by every act and every utterance that he is a broad-minded statesman and not a narrow-minded politician. While he is a strong party man Because he is convinced that his > arty is right in its prindiples and in the main , his appoint ments of the members of the jud- ciary provqs that he has had the great good of the whole country at heart , The stand which he has taken in favor of admitting Arizon and New Mexi co to statehood is another proof of broad-mindedness.

Sonic More Good Timber For Governor. The Quiz is pleased with the suggestion of nominating A. E ) . Cady of St. Paul for governor. He is a man of wide experience , abreast with the p.rogressive uen ot the republican party , ihoroughly posted on all public matters , a man of backbone who will not be swayed by undue in- lucnces and a fine speaker. With him at the head of the ticket the republicans could go to the polls with the assurance that the present outrageous democratic administration of affairs would come to an end. Ord Quiz. The Beacon's " "political adver tising department" makes rich picking while the feudists , Dean and Taylor'continue to do battle tor the congressional nomination. Doubtless the Judge and Billy Eastham can now get together and make common cause against their innate foes , The demo crats who are opposing the lead ership of these self-sacrificing democratic patriots , are commen cing to exhibit their teeth in this county. If the Beacon will in spire a few more feudists , it may make its "political advertising department" more profitable than the county printing. Ansley Argosy. When it comes to a choice be tween the republican and demo cratic parties , no republican , no matter how dissatisfied with the course of events in his own party can find a solitary good reason for going over to the democrats. The democratic party is as badly divided as the republican party and has not the record , nor unity of purpose behind it that the re publican party has. Its record when in power has always been bad and its incoinpetency ap parent , while all the progressive legislation of the past fifty years is attributable to the republican party. The best prospect of true reform lies in working within party lines for what is right , and not against it. It is easier to reform the republican party than the democratic party. Madison Chronicle , A Good Spirit Manifest. At the meeting of the Nebras ka Association held at Lincoln last week Mr. A , B , Wood of the Gering Courier was elected presi dent of the Association for the coming year. Mr. Wood has been"editor and proprietor of the Courier for the past twenty-three years , and during all of that time there is perhaps no other NOTICE !

Ie came to this country when this was apart of Cheyenne coun ty and since the organization of this county has had a great deal o do with its management. There was a time when he and this editor did not track very well together , but as he has shown a lisposition to treat us fairly , we are on better terms. Neverthe- ess the selection of Mr. Wood as president of the Association was a good one and he deserves every honor the position brings him. When it is remembered that Nebraska has over four hundred editors and that Scotts Bluff county is m the extreme western part of the state , it is with considerable pleasure we chronicle the event of his elec tion. Scotts Bluff Republican. Washington Letter. You've noticed that lots of ) aseball clubs win the pennant in February and March just Before the season opens. Let's see , for the last fifty years hasn't the democratic party been winning most of its elections in May and June ? The general point of democratic attack is the tariff , and yet we cannot find in a single speech and reference to the only democratic tariff law of the past half century. There is no allusion whatever to the conditions of business , of labor , or capita ] , under the oper ation of the Wilson-Gorman law. Of course , when it comes to this point , the republicans have a far better argument ; in short the democrots have no argument at all , because no one can con ceive how present industrial and financial condidtions could be bettered under any revision that could be brought about by the democratic party. While the democrats have been making pleas on these lines , such republican leaders as Payne , Fordney. Boutell , Hill , Long- worth , McKinlav , Hamilton. Townsend , Reeder , Campbell. Young and many others haT/e been contending that the present tariff law is the best that * we ever had or at least the best that we could get , and that under its operation both from a revenue and industrial standpoint , the country is reaping such benefits as we have never before enjoyed. Champ Clark , Underwood , Sulzer , Byrd , Borland and two- new accidental Members , Havena and Poss , made long and studied attempts to condemn the present tariff law , but all sang much thfc same song. All these protective tariff haters hadn't a good word to say for the tariff of 1846 and 1857 , which brought such dis aster to American industry.

BOWMAN BROKEN Bow , NEB. kind word to say for the Wilson- Gorman tariff , but all they would revise the present law so iar downward that consumer would be able to buy anything he wanted from any' part of the earth as long as he had any thing to buy it with. It is believed now * that the session will be prolonged untr after July 1st , but that the result will mean the passage of several very important bills and the en actment of most beneficent legislation. There seems no doubt whatever but that the Railroad bill will be passed and receive the endorsement of almost the republican vote in both Houses as well as the approval of the President. It seems , too , quite likely that a Postal Savings Bank law will be enacted. As to the rest of the .legislation pending , it is too early to predict , but alreay it is safe to assume that the work of the first Congress under the Ad .ministration of President Taft in : its special and first session will ibe equal to , if not exceed , that of any previous Congress for many jrears. The democratic tariff talker does not seem to realize that when , we open our ports to the importations of cheap foreign made goods , that an equivalent amount of American made goods must always be displaced , and that the result must be a closing of our factories and millions of idle men. Some of the democrat ic orators , if not all , would in crease our free list so as to in clude lumber , wool and woolens , cotton goods agricultural im plements , boots and shoes , and hundreds of other "products which could not be made in this country without adequate protection. This would soon mean putting American labor on the same level with that of the poorest paid countries abroad. It would mean that we would have to compete not only with conti nental Europe , but with Japan and others Astatic countries. It is interesting to compare these democratic and republican speeches. The democratic speeches are of course entirely negative , expecting where as sertions axe made as to what the party would do if it had the chance , but there is no mention - ' - " -f- Send Your Abstract Orders to 1 J J.

On the other hand the republican speeches are filled with tables of figures , with the records of commerce , with the amounts of those employed , and the increased wages which have come under our new law. The democratic orator claims that prices have been raised because of the tariff ; the republican orator tells us in reply that the tariff was reduced on every article upon which the price has been raised. These speeches which were made while the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill was under debate prove that the tariff is lo be one of the campaign , or rather not the tariff question so much as the discussion of the results of the operation of the law under which we are now living- .
