President Roosevelt at last weak ens just at a time when people expected I pected him to stand firm. He has recommended an amendment to the Hepburn rate bill , providing a court review of the work of the railway rate commission before it becomes operative and which will make it impracticable for good as intended by the provisions of the bill. The war has been waged on this bill , and finally to defeat the primary object of a speedy adjust ment of railroad rates , the court review amendment has been recom mended by the president. Senator Burkett has introduced a grazing bill in the senate on lines suggested by President Roosevelt in a message to congress. With the consent of the governor the president can establish grazing districts on public lands which will be in charge of the secretary of agriculture who appoints officers from the state and territory in which the grazing lands are locat ed. Five per cent of gross re ceipts go to the county in which lands leased are located. This seems to be another plan to rob the sand hills to enrich the better lands of our country , but it's the system of President Pooseveltr. On Abandonment List. Fort Niobaara is now on the list for abandonment as a military post and will be usedin the future . - * for field maneuvers and encamp ments , which will bring several hundred soldiers here each year for two or three months. This was partially reported in Sunday's "World-Herald and is verified by Hon. C. H. Cornell who has just returned from Washington , D. C. We have hoped for Fort Nio- brara to be built up as a great army post , with her 60,000 acres of territory , to be used in field work and practice to good advant age. There are smaller reserva tions than this and few hivr- : the natural advantages that are found on the Fort Niobrara military res ervation for an army post. If this be our fate to have a vast area of ground joining our city on which there will be neither inhabi tants nor soldiers then we are not to be envied by other towns. There may be some consolation to those who derive no benefit from the soldiers being quartered here and looked upon the prevalence of soldiers as a menace to the peace and quietude of the home. The expense to the county on account of the numerous prose cutions of soldier criminalities in the past will lie subdued and abated. Moses P. Kinkaid can't get any more votes for what he did for Ft. Niobrara. He will try some new ruse to fool the people this time and if he gets past the third mile post he will consider himself safe ly anchored for a life time service as representative of a patient , for bearing people who expect noth ing but a few garden seeds , a few patched up speeches that were never delivered in the halls of con gress or were not heard by con gress in its working clothes. When the farmer or ranchmen is approached this year it will be with a new ruse for their support. of Kinkaid for congress. Their feeble attempts to learn what for or why they should again send Moses P. Kinkaid to congress will probably be more than answered in promises , anew of great things yet in store for Fort Niobrara in this part of the district , and of some other item somewhere else. Yes , Moses will get his ear to the ground with the alertness of an American , to learn the senti ment here and there before he speaks and his cure-all-balm for all ills , aches or pains may be ex pected when his campaign begins. He promised us much but we find it to be much trouble. We asked for bread and he gave us a stone. If the democrats of the sixth congressional district will get to gether and nominate a good , cap able man we will retire Mr. Kin kaid on his record of 640 acres for a homestead. Law and Order Will Pre = vail. Tuesday's election might be significant of more than one thing. The 69 voters who cast their bal lots for Dr. Dailey and Mr. Savage may take consolation in the thought that those ballots were cast for law and order and that they neither rustled the slums to get those votes nor was there any question as to their citizenship and qualifications. It is plainly evident to anyone's mind whose thought dwells on the election and its results that 69 citizens , law-abiding and home- loving people , \ oted their senti ments at the election , while the 140 votes cast for the other side were made up of a combined mix- tur'e of good citizens , legally quali fied voters , and some who are neither. A great number of votes , as are generally cast on such oc casions , do not signify much in the sentiment of a town. Their votes are generally on the wrong side and are opposed to the best citi zenship. Aside from the issue of whether the saloons would run the town or that the town control the saloons , the candidates of the Citizens tick et were supported by the saloon element and also by a large num ber of people who were neither radical , fanatical nor intemperate , nor are they in favor of the sa loons running wide open and they are also opposed to gambling. Mr. Barker and Mr. Compton are neither saloon men nor are they favorable to gambling. Had they been the nominees of any other convention both would have been opposed bitterly by the same element that has taken so much interest in tlieir election. Either could have had the nomination on the Peoples ticket and would not have been opposed by the law and order people in election had they been the first nominees. The saloon men who took 'so much pains to show their loyal I support were willing to concede the most radical temperance man | i as their nominee , provided they might have the honor of doing him : some favor in the election contest. There is consequently little for them to boast of for their victory i is ours and two men are now elect * ed by their assistance that they would have denounced at any oth er time. This , however , is not so credit able for those who are clambering over boxes , chairs and debris to bet on the popular or winning side'i and lie in wait for popular public. ' sentiment before they are willing j to be known and the "I told you ' so" who couldn't see that a victory : JUST RECEIV another carload of the celebrated JOHN DEERE Implements.
