SENATOR LOGAN died a comparative
ly poor man an everlasting monument
to his honesty. Having devoted his
life to the nation unselfishly , his wife
and family will not be forgotten by the
people.
NEARLY every county in Nebraska
found the promise of a new railroad iu
its Christmas stocking. It is to be a
great year" for railroad building in Ne
braska , and McCook will not be neg
lected in the shuffle.
A NEW YORK clergyman says there
will be degrees of punishment hereaf
ter ; that the man who sins the most
will be punished the most , and vice-
versa. According to this belief , the
man who sends a long communication ,
written on both sides , to a newspaper
for publication , won't get much vice-
versa in his. Norristown Herald.
GENERAL LOGAN ever remembered
his comrades in arms. His last public
speech was delivered at a QA. . li.
camp-fire in Yougstown , O. . on Novem
ber 18 , a little more than five weeks
ago. In the course of his remarks he
said : "I believe in pensioning every
soldier living that went into the service
either for a long or short term , who
was wounded in serve or contracted
disease , or has since , through no fault
of his own , become disabled. I be
lieve in pensioning every soldier that
has arrived at the age of sixty-two.
Pass that kind of a law and justice
would be done. "
THERE'S a great deal said in the pa
pers just now about the "long haul"
and the "short haul ; " but it's the big
haul out of the people's pockets that
they must object to. There is a good
deal of that kind of hauling , and it's
not all done by the railroads. And
speaking of discrimination , it may be
observed that all of us like it well
enough when it's in our favor. When
the other fellows get the benefit we
kick and demand a change. Wherefore
the wise man observeth. Verily we
are all made from the same piece of
cloth , though it's thinner iu spots , and
cut a little more on a bias. Chicago

THE Commander in-chief of the
French army , and Secretary of War-
General Boulanger , will demand for the
army budget , this year , it is reported ,
$80.000,000. How do you like that
Uncle Samuel , for a nice little sum to
keep an army on foot without any def
inite perception of warlike operations ?
France will , if this money is voted ,
raise the army pool in Europe this
year. It has cost in recent yeare $2-
000,000 a day to keep on foot the
armies of Europe. If the other nations
keep the proportion thus established by
France the rate will be about $3,000-
000 a day. In one year of peace Eu
rope spends the price of a war.
Beggs' Cherry Cough Syrup

and make expectoration easy. Acts simul
