Vote for Falls City. Vote for
dignity and sincerely. Vote for
independence and a desire for the
general good. Vote for Itarrett.
Yon can fool all of the people
some of the time only. This les
son should he learned by "the
Martins" at their earliest oppor
tunity.
The Journal and News hatched
the last hrood of county officers
together and now the scrap is on
as to who is the mother ol the
children.
Leyda said a year ago. "I suc
ceeded in keeping the support of
the Martin's quiet and it didn't
hurt me very much. " lie doesn't
seem to be so successful this
year ,
John L- Cleaver has made the
best police Judge Falls City has
ever had. He has ever been a
terror to the law breaker and tin
administration of the duties of thu
office under Mr. Cleaver has al
ways met with the approbation
of the law abiding element.
It is really too bad to load
Leyda up with the Journal re-
fromers. He has a few troubles
of his own without being both
ered with that trail } ? . Much at
we would like to see Leyda de
feated we cannot help sympathis
ing' with him in this his acknow
ledged trial.
When the News looks through
the county records to ascertian
just how much money has been
drawn from the county by the
Martins in the past 25 years , il
might go to the city records and
compile the warrants drawn b >
Hon. Francis during the fifteen
years he was city attorney under
democratic administr < tions.
Prof. Barrett by his manlj
campaign is drawing support t <
himself every day. His qualili
cations are admitted by all am
his earnest desire to see Fall
City made a better town shoul
have the co-operation of tin- en
tire community' The Tribun
docs not pose as the Professor'
spokesman but we feel safe in as
surring the voters that he wi
not be a candidate for this oflic
siv times , nor bore the peopl
with the constant assertion of
desire to be the whole thinj
Let's elect Barrett and give h
opponent a short lay off say unt
the next municipal election an.
way.
The Mayor's office must 1
more valuable to Leyda than
has ever been to anybody else
lie would not be a standing cam
date for it. What is it ? He
cock wouU not stand for a t
nomination. Barton resign *

Let every voter consider the
qualifications and the deserts of
every candidate. Make your
comparisons between the candi
dates for Mayor , councilman and
other municipal offices and vote
accordingly.
The cuckoo , so natural history
tells us , lays its eggs in the nests
of othfr birds and when the
brood is hatched kills all the
young except her own. The
Journal is the cuckoo of Richard
son County politics. It has been
aying its eggs in the democratic
lest for several years and is now
ghting it out with the News as
' .o which is entitled to the brood.
The anemic and somewhat
abit travesty on a newspaper to
he immediate north of us speak *
i the lies and dishonorable
methods used by men all over the
lounty to distroy it. Far be il
rom us to contradict anything
he Journal may say of lying 01
dishonorable methods. In this
field the Journal and its ex-
inguishcd family stand alone ,
They are expert witnesses whose
qualifications no man will dis
pute.
The Journal is now busy pub-
ishing Probate court notices
rom the office of Judge Gagnon ,
This paper gets republican sub-
criptions by pretending to be a
epnblican no.vspaper and demo-
ratic patronage by supporting
lemocratic candidates. It doesn't
nake a particle of difference tc
.is who publishes the probate
lotices. We are not entitled to
any. We were against Judge
Gagnon and for Judge Wilhite
mil would be again under the
same circumstances. The Jour
lal however , the chief of whosi
tribe has called Gagnon every
thing from ignorant to corrup
in the hearing the writer of this
is gct'.ing in on the swag and tin
democratic organ of the county
must content itself to look on anc

The Senatorial Situation.
T'lings ' pertaining to the Sena.
torial contest have been active
during1 the ten clays past. The
Hi-own boiim .seems to be gain
ing impetus as the daygo by ,
due in part to the popularity of
the Attorney General and in
part to the failure of Omaha to
recogni/.e and seize its oppor
tunity
Douglas County thinks itself
entitled to the senatorship , and
in as much as it has the met
ropolis of the state , the claim
may have good reason for exist
ence. But Douglas County fails
to apprehend the sentiment
throughout the state. The men
most frequently mentioned ir
Omaha as candidates are Sena
tor Millard and Mr. Wattles
both excellent men no doubt
but men whom the state has nc
desire to elect.
Senator Millard is impossible
Ifis election was more the pro
duct of an unfortunate conditioi
than the result of a popular ele
mand. His services as Senatoi
have not been such as creates ;
desire among1 the rank and iil <
for his retention in office. Mr
Wattles is a banker and at tin
heael of the Omaha street rail
way lie is a man of superio
business ability anil of grea
wealth. However heisunknowi
to ninety per cent of the repub
licans outside of Omaha , and t <
those who do know him , the ac
quaintance is one more of ;
business nature than political
With either of these gentletnei
as its candidate Omaha may bi
considered out ot the running
and the matter easy for Brown
If Omaha is to be a factor ii
this race at all it must selec
some other candidate and do i
quickly.
If the Douglas county delega
tion would combine on John L
\\ebster the situation would bi
greatly changed. Mr. Webste
is recognized as one of th
ablest lawyers in the west. H
is scholarly and has spent hi
life in the study of those ques
lions which make for statesman
ship He is known throughou
the state as a constant carnes
and industrious republican. H

ministration and isembarrasse

Omaha cannot win withon
