C H Dietrich republican candidate
jfor governor has blessed us with his
presence and passed on to conquer the
rest of the state We have a great deal
of sympathy for Charlie as he actually
believes he will be the next governor
The party who pumped him full of such
nonsense is no doubt chuckling at the
effort the candidate is making to con
vince some one else of the same thing
Charlie is probably all right in his
business but his business is not man
aging the affairs of a state of Nebraskas
size and importance That and 2 per
cent are altogether dissimilar- Boyd
County Register
The Phillippines cost us 186000
000 and 2300 soldiers to say nothing
of the 20000000 we gave Spain The
trade that costs so much must be some
thing wonderful in its proportions
js 10 per cent a good margin of pro
fit If it is we must do 18 000 000
worth Gt business with the Philippines
cbefore wears reimbursed for the mon
ey already speufc there And no amount
-of business can eye pay js for the
fliavpheen sacrificed on the altars of

women and children scalping burning the United States so prosperous
and destroying them
We are unalterably opposed to any tuated by the same aim They want
alliance tacit or open with any Euro- to divert attention from the
pean monarchy particularly ours and ance of democracy at home by flaunt-
Americas bitter foe and shall resist m iug before their country the glory of an

position of imperialism and militarism lzed lands acquired by me swora areat
unon a people consecrated to freedom
and in this spirit and with an abiding
trust in the good sense and patriotism
of the vast body of the American peo
ple we commit as far as we may the

fortunes of the Republic of America to main the masters until imperialism is
thfl strength and determination of citi
zens born on American soil and aided
by those sons from other lands who
sought here a refuge from open tyran

OPENING OF MR BUJANS SPEECH
Mr Bryan spoke as follows
I do not want ybu to think that my
happiness depends uLjon any public
office within the gift of the people of
this country I have a higher ambition
than to be President Great applause
The man whose happiness depends
upon what others do for him may be
doomed to disappointment but if ones
happiness depends upon what he does
for others he need not be disappointed
Renewed applause I hope 3011 will
credit me with the ambition that is
within the reach of every citizen of
this land an ambition which all can
entertain and which to my mind is a
higher ambition than that for any of
fice and that is an ambition to do what
I can to make this nation so great and
j good that to be a simple citizen
WPfthl be greater than to be a king in
any jherland Great applause
Theobjeflf my speech is a prac
tical one I want fa seMsQcsionj
to point to a great lesson 1 Deneve me
fact that this nation has here the rep-
resentatives of all of the races of Europe
gives it a peculiar advantage among the
nations The fact that the best blood
of all the civilized nations ffijngle here
in the development of the American
character enables this nation to turn on
every question the light of uniyersal
history and avoid the dangers from
which other nations have suffered Ap
plause When a problem arises in this
country we can look back and find
what has been the experience of others
If we knew the history of our own
people only we would not be so well
prepared to detect danger before we
suffer from it but if any one does not
know the growth of landlordism and its
dangers he has only to ask an Irish
man what landlordism means and he
need not read history to find it out
Great applause If any one wants to
know whether an alien government is
good all he has to do is to ask an Irish
man what his opinion is of an alien
government although the governing
power be separuted from the governed
only by a narrow channel Applause
If you want to know what militar
ism means and what its burdens are all
J
came to this country to avoid the

Conquest is not in our
It is inconsistent with our govern

We did not raise armies for cjlory or
for conquest

would be to divert our energies from

AGAINST ALLIANCE
Address adopted at the suggestion of
Judge M V Cannon at the annual
meeting of the United Irish Societies
at Sunnyside Park in Chicago August
15th last
Within the year freedom has re
ceived desperate blows at the hands of
the nations who claim to be wedded to
Liberty and we regret to say that the
foreign policy of our own American
Republic has exhibited a desire on the
seizure of territory is
tinguishing mark of the nation that
throttled Liberty upon this continent
burned its cauitol at Washington de
stroyed its archives and set the ruerci
1psk Indian sa vases upon defenseless
lUOJJllClLltJU I
Mr Stevenson and Mr Towne also
made excellent speeches and there is
principles no doubt but that Bryan and Steven
son will receive tne support or tne
Irish in Chicago Prospects are bright
in New York and the election of Bryan
is almost a certainty Democracy is
combined all over the east and there
will undoubtedly be a landslide for the
Democratic party this year
C H Dietrich is afraid to get out
and discuss the issues of this campaign
from the rostrum he wants to shake
hands with the people and kiss their
babies a most cowardly method of
vote getting but the only means left
for republican office hunters as they
are afraid to openly discuss the issues
in this campaign Holt County inde

A WARNING
ffumm J mi iiiiiinmi
London Aug 15 Copyright 1900
by W R Hearst Henry Labouchere
says in his paper Truth to day
Were I an American I would vote
for Mr Bryan in the coming election
I do not believe in bimetallism but re
gard it as a pious opinion having noth
ing to do wjth practical politics
I would vote for 13ryan because he
s more democratic than his opponent
Bryans crusade against trusts means
that he objects to plutocrats ruling the
county in their own interests His
opposition to the entering on a scram
ble for outside territory is merely the
doctrine which until within a few
years was held by every American
It is this doctrine which has made
Capitalists and imperialists are ac-
their best hunting fields
Never yet has a people or nation
benefitted by such acquisitions Im
perialism has made our plutocrats our
masters for the nonco They will re-
expelled
The Americans have an excellent
Constitution but it wont stand the
strain of military adventure abroad
COST OF THE WAR
As nearly as figures can express it
the cost to the United States of the
war in the Philippines has been 180
678000 n cash and at least 2394 lives
of American soldiers
The wnr with Spain pnrted and that
with the Filipinos began on February
1 1809 This date can be used in cal
dilating the expenditure in money al-
although it was not until February 4
that hostilities with Apumaldo and his
followers really began and it was not
until February 6 that the treaty of
peace with bpain was ratified
The total of deaths given is compiled
from a report made by the Secretary
of War 111 reply to a resolution passed
by the Senate and from General Mac
Arthurs death and casualty lists since
the date covered by that report -May
24 19o0 up to and including Agust 11

A TRIBUTE
Frances M Carpenter was born in
Troy New York on August 20 1828
and died August 22 1900 in the after
noon at about 5 oclock Age 72 years
and 2 days
Mrs Carpenter was raised in the
state of New York and was united
in marriage to John M Carpenter on
June 20th 1849 and walked together
as husband and wife more than fifty
years Into this union were born three
children all of whom survive her Her
husband preceded her in death seven
months and seventeen days
She and her husband moved from
York state about the year 1854 and
settled in Jo Daviess county 111 In
1865 the family went to Iowa and lived
there until the spring of 1883 when
they came to Nebraska and located in
Cheny county being among the early
settlers in this part of the state
For several years she was a member
of the Congregational Church and on
coming west she never severed her re
lationshio with that branch of the
Christian church
Both she and her husband were in
dustrious hard working people and for
their honesty and integrity in their
dealings with their fellow beings they
were universally esteemed by all who
knew them
As a mother she was kind and good
to her family always having their wel
fare at heart and was a true and oblig
ing neighbor
She was ailing for about 21 months
previous to her decease during which
time she received the very best care
and treatment that loving relatives rind
friends could minister or provide for
her comfort and rest
The relatives have the heartfelt syin
pathy and condolence of the entire
community in the hour of their afflic
tibn and bereavement
The funeral was from the residence
of William Pettyorew her son-in-law
where she had boen living with her
daughter since the death of Mr Car
penter last winter A goodly number
of old settlers friends and neighbors
were present The services were con
ducted by the pastor of the M E
church the choir singing Rock of
Ages By Cool Siloams Shady
Rills Jesus Lover of My Soul
and at the grave sang Nearer My God
to Thee after which the remains were
interred in the cemetery west of town
Rev A F Cujibow

To all who assisted in the last sad
rites to the memory of our mother we
extend oilr sincere thanks
