TUE way Lamborn is hustling
Sheridan is a caution to Eli.
INOLIrNCE is the rich man's
crime , servility the poor man's
curse.
IT'S the accursed insincerity of
politics that is perhaps the most
disgusting.
CAN the democratic party of NebrAska -
brAska be located by any known
polical chart ? I don't think !
IT'S the republican party against
the world in Nebraska , this year.
And the earth will be all ours.
THE TRIBUNE hopes to see this
county in the Andrews column by
a safe majority. It belongs there
and the republican party should
see to it that it is so counted.
THE democratic endorsement of
Mcgeighau for congress in the
Fifth district has been anticipated
from the first. It does not alter
the situation of the contending
forces , nor will it dishearten the
republican candidate in the least.
-Bee.
i
NEBRASKA'S credit depends more
on her corn and hogs than it does
on her peculiar brand of politics ,
and men who are at all disposed to
be frank , honest or sincere are
perfectly willing to admit the fact.
It's a very young bird such chaff
can catch.
COL. SMITH of the Bartley Inter-
Ocean thinks that Col. Mitchell of
the lndianola Courier ought to tell
the truth and make the populist
speakers do likewise ; and Col.
Mitchell thinks Col. Smith is just
too funny for any use. And there
you have it.
F. M. RATHBUN is making a
winning campaign. He will represent -
resent the 29th district in the next
Legislature-if anybody in imres
about it. Frank is 0. K. Remember -
ber that also. He has all the genius
ius of honesty of purpose and of
energy for the right.
THE following from the Times-
Democrat is reassuring and will
doubtless give the republicans of
Red Willow county renewed courage -
age : "A majority of the republican
county ticket will be elected , this
fall , and it may all of it , but it
cannot be without a great effort. "
Really , there is some reason to expect -
pect the Times-Democrat to support -
port the county republican ticket
yet.
IN the name of decency let us
have an end of this gaff about the
peril of Nebraska's credit. Such
rot as now burdens the columns of
a certain brand of republican newspapers -
papers touching the subject is extremely -
tremely tiresome and disgusting ,
and doubtless has a more damaging
effect than imaginary evils antici-
pated. Nebraska's credit is all
right , and no amount of political
moonshine can injure it. Let up.
TnE enthusiasm with which W.
E. Andrews is received at all
points where he has spoken so far
in the campaign is unquestionable
evidence that the people of this
district have not forgotten the little -
tle giant who made such all aggressive -
gressive and telling fight for coli-
gress in this district two years
ago. It also indicates that they
have decided to dispense with
populism and its representative of
uselessness , Mcgeighan. T h e
people of the Fifth district desire
to send a man to congress who will
be a credit rather than a standing
disgrace to them and their state ;
a man who will represent them in
all that the term implies ; a man
who will carefully guard their interests -
terests , and can be depended upon
to do his duty , Such a man they
recognize in Mr. Andrews , the
republican candidate , and that he
will be the next congressman from
this district is becoming more apparent -
parent as elretiou ! day draws near.
-Haetngs } Trihune ,
MENTALLY , morally and politically -
ally Andrews represents the type
of man it should be the pride of
all good citizens to encourage and
support in politics. 'Self-made-
and a good job ; irreproachable in
character ; of fine mental attainments -
ments ; well posted in his country's
history ; alert , and filled with patriotic -
triotic enthusiasm for his country's
future welfare ; of strong convictions -
tions and possessed with the courage -
age of his convictions ; he is a
wholesome specimen of American
manhood that appeals most earnestly -
nestly and strongly to the best and
truest sentiments of our citizen-
ship. Let Red Willow county
stand up and be counted among
the faithful.
THERis no reason why W. E.
Andrews shall not receive the
hearty and unanimous support of
the republicans of the Fifth district -
trict , and there are many good
and sufficient reasons why he
should receive a large democratic
vote. By his own course and actions -
tions Mcgeighan has forfeited his
right , if such he ever had , to the
vote of a large element of the democracy -
mocracy of this district. These
democrats cannot conscientiously
and will not support him further.
Their espousal of Andrews adds
an encouraging element of certainty -
tainty to his election. And Red
Willow county must be in line
for the little parson.
IF the republican party of this
county will back up with their
ballots the energetic and earnest
efforts being made by the nominee ,
John J Lamborn , the next representative -
sentative from this county will be
able to cast his 'rote for a republican -
can United States senator , this
winter. He is leaving nothing
undone that tends to republican
success , this fall.
HARLOW W. KEYES' qualifications -
tions for the discharge of the important -
portant duties of county attorney
are unquestioned. As a man , for
honesty , integrity and fidelity , he
has an enviable reputation. As a
lawyer , he stands high among the
profession in this county for his
knowledge of law and his reliability -
ity in its application.
IT is a matter of more than
passing importance to the republican -
lican party of Red Willow county
that our neat representative shall
be a republican. John J. Lam-
born should have the practically
solid support of the party in this
county. He has the business
qualifications , too , to represent
the county with credit.
RZD WILLOw county will be in
line for republican success in No-
vember. The majority will not
be large but sufficient for all practical -
tical purposes.
8AVED A LITTLE GIRL'S LIFE -
lilarssrd 6tadent Rescues Child Prom
Death by an Electric Car In Cambridge.
A signal instance of courage and
quickness of thought , which undoubtedly -
ly saved the life of a little chlid , oceur
rod in Cambridge on Friday evening.
Shortly before 7 p m. a Tremont
House electric car was passing along
Main street at a very rapid rate. Near
Windsor street a little girl , apparently
about 3 years of age , ran from the sidewalk -
walk toward the track. The motorman
quickly shut off the current and pat on
the brake. Then the child paused , and
the motorman released the car.
Just as the oar had regained its ma
mentum the child , through some strange
impulse , darted forward to cross the
track. The motorman was almost
breathless with horror. There was no
time to stop the car , and the toddling
infant seemed doomed.
Suddenly a tall , athletic young man
sprang from his feat at the end of the
front row , and grasping the curved han-
die on the dasher of the car with his
right hand swung himself oat on the
fender. Just as the car was about to
crush the little girl under its wheels he ,
seized her firmly by the waist.
It was a trying moment to the nerves
of the passengers and motorman. It
seemed for an instant as if both man
and child would fall in front of the
fender. But by an almost convulsive
effort the rescuer lifted the little girl
from the track and laid her on her back
at one side out of the reach of the
wheels
So great was the strain upon him that
as soon as the child was released he himself -
self fell forward on the fender , and
only an unusual degree of agility enabled -
abled him to scramble up on his knees
and back to his seat it the car.
The whole thing was done in an in-
stant. The motorman , pale with fright ,
was only able to look his thanks.
The hero of the affair was the most
composed person on the car. Ho at once
sought a rear seat to avoid attention ,
merely remarking to the motorman as
ho passed : "Gad ! Why don't you get
out of this ? "
A passenger said that the young man
was a Harvard student who resides on
Sacramento street , Cambridge.-Boston
Herald.
REIGNING FAMILIES.
America IIaa Its "Uncommon People , and
They Are Our "Royal Families. "
In discussing the family squabbles of
one of the reigning families of New
York , Mr. Ward McAllister , as the recognized -
ognized authority on everything which
concerns the uncommon people , says
that the trouble is doubtless over and the
" foreign
family "probablyontertainingeome -
eign prince at their house on the
Thames. "
Why not ? Are not our royal families
as good as those of Europe , of Asia , of
Africa or anywhere else where royal
families are tolerated ?
Mr. McAllister will undoubtedly
agree with us that they certainly are.
It makes no great difference how power
over man is obtained-whether by the
force and brutality which made princes
In more primitive times or by modem I
methods. The resultis the same in any
event.
It is just as honorable and glorious a
thing to accumulate a hundred million
unearned dollars and thereby master the
bodies and subjugate the minds of 10 ,
000,000 men as it is to do the same
thing by virtue of controlling a million
bayonets. On either hand it is power
tsurped from the people to dwarf and
maim their minds and souls for the I
greater glory of their masters.
Our royal families need not stand
back for those of Europe or of any other
country. Their right t0 reign is as good ,
their blood is as good , and their manners -
ners , though sometimes indecent when
measured by ordinary standards of decency -
cency , are even better than those which
characterize the most courtly courts of
the world.
When our reigning families go t0
Europe and buy the palaces of the effete
survivors of a decayed feudalism , it is
condescension to entertain the former
owners , and it would be condescension
still if it were done in the servants'
hall instead of the salon.-New York
World.
A Great Summer Snraslde.
The Rev. Roland D. Grant of the
First Baptist church reached home last
week , the first to arrive of the party
leaving here a month ago to make the
ascent of Mount Hood from Government -
ment camp. The descent was easy
enough , almost too rapid for some. One
lady badly frightened the crowd when
she made a misstep and started down
the mountain side at a lively gait. There
was a momentary shriek of horror , but
when the woman struck her heels firmly -
ly in the snow and so checked her wild
career every one felt better. Just then
Dr. Grant suggested he could do the
same himself , and he , his daughter and
Mrs. W. Gray were a moment after
$ oondering in the snow. They slid down
1,000 feet , landing in safety below , to
the great merriment of those who
watched the frolic.-Portland Orego- I

Modest Oscar wade.
A story is being told that on the death
recently of the great scholar , Mr. Walter -
ter Pater , th9 editor of a London evening -
ing paper telegraphed to Oscar Wilde 1
to ask him to supply some personal gossip -
sip about the dead man , who was known
tobeafriend of the ex-aesthete. Whereupon -
upon Mr. Wilde wired back , "Leave
the gossip to the jackals , not thelions ,

Abyssinia's New Stamps.
It is difficult tounderstand the object
to which the king of Abyssinia intends
to devote the elaborate postage stamps
which he is now having engraved and
printed at Paris. There is no postof6ce
and no postal service in Abyssinia , and
the Ethiopians have not yet developed
the civilized mania for stamp collect-
ing.-Neer York Tribune.
i -SCANDALS OF THE PLUTOCRACY.
iHmhroom Aristocracy Is the Proper Ob-
Sect of Intelligent Contempt.
About a year ago a scandal in the Astor -
tor family kept the tongue of gossip
busy for the season. The conduct of
Mrs. Coleman Drayton , a daughter of
the house of Astor , caused her separation -
tion from her husband. Attempts to rehabilitate -
habilitate her in society have failed ,
and she has taken up her permanent
residence in Europe.
The existing Vanderbilt scandal is
caused by improprieties on the part of a
male member of the family. He is said
to have been nagged into revolt against
his home by the imperious petulance
and offensive social airs of his wife , a
poor but proud beauty and belle of aristocratic -
tocratic southern birth , who said at the
time of her nuptials that , as between
blood and money , it was condescension
on her phut to marry the richest man in
the United States.
The peculiar filth which made the
Astor and Vanderbilt scandals uncommonly -
monly nauseous has not adhered , so far
as the public knows , to any of the domestic -
mestic relations of the Gould family.
But the stories about them have not
been such as to excite envy of their gilded -
ed lot , if its harassments and humiliations -
tions must be taken as an inseparable
part of the possession. Unbounded
wealth is not a specific far mental distress -
tress and heartache , and it does not
bring honor , obedience and troops of
friends to the undeserving.
These greater and minor scandals are
more noticeable because they are blots
on a mere upstart aristocracy. Two generations -
erations back these families had the
? nest obscure beginnings. The original
Astor laid the foundations of his wealth
in the sale of minkskins , catching and
skinning the minks himself in their
habitat along the Mohawk. The original '
Vanderbilt acquired his first capital in
boating garden vegetables from New
Jee rey across the channel to the New
Yorx markets.
This is not to the discredit of the
original nor of the present Asters and
Vanderbilts. Only men of great minds ,
great industry and great daring could
have created the immense fortunes
which the present Asters and Vander-
bilts inherited and which have increased
in their hands. But it is ridiculous that
the first and second only in descent from
these founders of wealth should imagine
that its possession makes them a class
separated and distant from the people , a
peculiar and elevated social rank , the
cream of the social mass. Ancient aristocracy -
tocracy , if not degraded by vice , has a
traditional title to respect. Mushroom a
aristocracy is the proper object of intelligent -
ligent contempt.
That these newly rich people apply
their riches to unfractifying uses and
that some of them live scandalous lives
is no justification of the theories of communism -
munism and anarchy. A dissolute rich
man , no more than avirtuous rich man ,
is the just abject of spoliation. To rob
the wealthy and distribute their property -
erty or to render its possession insecure
is not a proper punishment and is not a
cure for the vices , abuses and evils of
wealth.
There is another lesson. Not much
that is the best in life depends on the
ownership of wealth. The sturdy virtues -
tues in which the best human society is
founded are buttressed in the homes of a
the people-the common people , not
raised by wealth to invidious elevation
above others , and not depressed by poverty -
erty below the comfortable level of everyday - a
eryday life.
The wholesome and reputable classes
s
who live by trade , industry and the
professions have no leisure nor disposition -
tion for illicit pleasures that are enjoyed
in an atmosphere of scandal and bear
ultimata fruit in misery. Honest American -
ican home-the homes of the American
millions , not of millionaires-are the
fortresses of popular virtue , and there
the principles of liberty regulated by
law are impregnably intrenched.Chii

Cost ofNaval Construction.
An interesting comparison of the cost a :
of naval construction in the United
States and Great Britain was published
in London the other day. It was a.sert-
ed that the modern first class battleship
costs $300 per ton in England and $390
us. the tinted States. Taking all classes
of construckion under the English naval P
defense act , the expense has been $335
I ton , while the cost estimated under
the present naval programme in the
United States is = 550.
