Tim remarks of the Hon. Arthur
Sewall , late Democratic vice-presidential
candidate , to the effect that he believes
Bryan will undoubtedly be nominated
but that he will be again defeated , are
not considered good Democratic litera
ture for campaign circulation.
EXPORTATIONS of iron and steel dur
ing 1899 amounted to $105,689,645 against
$15,422,874 in 1880 , while imports of
manufactures of iron and steel in 1880
were $63,956,853 and in 1899 but $15,799-
206. And all this under protection ,
which has been denounced as a some
thing which would prevent Americans
finding abroad a market for their prod
ucts.
No LOYAL Republican will be dis
turbed in the least in his ultimate fidelity
and allegiance to the party and its presi
dent in the coming national contest by
the fact that he does coincide completely
with the expansion or colonial policy to
which the party and its chief executive
have fallen .heir by reason of the late
Spanish-American war. All Republicans
are united in the matters of stable cur
rency , protection , good government , and
have confidence that the party can take
care of the colonies and trusts with a
wisdom that the Democratic party has
never exhibited in its history. The Re
publican front will be a practically solid
one in November , notwithstanding any
and all miHor differences of opinion.
HARVARD'S professor of history , Albert
B. Hart , in an interesting article in Har
pers Magazine , calls attention to the fact ,
and illustrates his point by copious quo
tations , that the present debates over
the annexation of Puerto Rico and the
Philippines contain , with more prolixity
and less cogenc3' , the same passionate
objections and the same rejoinders which
busied the minds of the senate and the
house in the discussion of the Louisiana
purchase in 1803. Nothing new has been
raised by the anti-expansionists of the
present time over those of a century ago ,
although those of to-day must admit
that the reasoning of their namesakes
was defective. The objectors of those
days were simply obstructionists , as bad
ly divided in opinion as are those of the
present day , having no common principle
on which all could stand.
THE calamity shriekers , who did such
a thriving business ( at so much per diem )
in the campaign of 1896 , are liable to find
their branch of industry somewhat de
pressed by a recent publication in that
staunch Democratic paper the New
York "World. " The "World" calls at
tention to the fact that the New York
State bureau of labor and statistics in its
report for 1899 says that "at the end of
December , 1898 , 27.2 per cent of all the
working people in all trades were unem
ployed. At the end of March , 1899 , the
unemployed amounted to 18.6 per cent.
At the end of June the percentage was
10.9. At the end of September it had
sunk to 4.7 per cent. " And the "World"
adds that at the present moment it is
"incalculably small , " and further says ,
"How much these simple figures mean
of prosperity ! How much they mean of
happiness in the home lives of hundreds
of thousands ! How much they mean of
welfare for the counto' ! What a warn
ing they hold for politicians who would
start another 'calamity' campaign. " To
this the Democratic Washington "Post"
adds that "reports from other states are
of like tenor. Never before in the his
tory of this country was labor in such
demand as at present ; never before was
the general average of wages so high ;
never before were the deposits in savings
banks increasing so rapidl } * ; and there is
the strongest promise that this most
happy situation will continue for some
. "

THE Populist state convention is an
nounced for March igth in the new aud-
torium building in Lincoln.
THE Republicans of Nebraska will
hold an early convention , this year ,
meeting in Lincoln , Wednesday , May 2.
IN spite of the reading in the senate
of Admiral Dewey's letters stating that
he never made any coalition or agree
ment with Aguinaldo , the anti-imperial
ists still maintain that Dewey did regard
the Filipinos as his allies. It looks as
though the Democratic campaign man
agers were proposing to go before the
country on the question of veracity be
tween Admiral Dewey and Aguinaldo.
MR. BRYAN'S eastern tour'was a great
success. He managed to get on every
side of every question which could be
possibly considered in the coming cam
paign , and therefore retires to the west
flattering himself that he has given
everybody a little platform on which to
stand long enough to cast a vote for
Bryan in 1900. The most striking feat
ure of his trip was the evidence which
he brought forth that the silver question
must be relegated to the background ,
that anti-expansion is the most unpopu
lar proposition he could offer , and that
his chief reliance now is the imperialistic
bogie , whatever that may be.
City Property Transfers.
Activity in city real estate continues.
The following transfers of residence
properties have taken place , this week :
Jonas Engel to James S. Doyle of the
Willow. Consideration , $2,500. This is
one of McCook's finest properties , and
the contemplated removal of Mr. Engel
and family from the city is doubtless re
sponsible for the bargain price at which
it sold.
The old Frank Hess dwelling over on
south Monroe street to Mrs. M. E. Bar-
ger. The consideration was in the
neighborhood of a thousand dollars.
The J. A. Snyder residence , corner of
McFarland and Dakota , by W. F. Everist
to the Leach brothers. JThe considera
tion is placed at less than one thousand
dollars. There are two lots. The boys
secured another profitable investment in
this purchase.
The J. R. Phelan residence , corner of
Dakota and Madison , to W. F. Everist
for $2,800. This property embraces three
fine lots and one of the city's best and
largest dwellings. The price is a very
low one for so valuable property.
J. E. Sanborn to William Wood , lot 3
and south half of lot 2 , block i , West
McCook ; consideration , $300.
Mrs. Sadie A. Bates to J. J. Barry , part
of lots 15 and 16 , block 27 , original Mc
Cook ; consideration , $650.

WOMEN IN TROUBLE.
The Approach , of Motherhood is the
Occasion of Much Anxiety to All.
Every \voman dreads the ordenl
through which she must pass in hoccm-
ing a mother. The pain and suffering
which is in store for her is a source of
constant anxiety , fear and dread , to
BUY nothing of the danger which the
coming incident entails. The joyous
anticipations with which she looks for
ward to baby's coming gives way to an
indescribable dread of the ordeal when
she fully realizes the critical and trying
event which will soon approach and
have to be endured.
Women should hail with delight a
remedy which insures to them im
munity from the pain , suffering and
danger incidental to child-bearing.
Such a remedy is now offered , and
women need rot fear longerthe hour of
childbirth. "Mother's Friend" is a
