(
I Democracy and Decency.
Governor Shallenberger , in his
t
4 t . \ . rousing democratic , speech at the
_ . . Kearney banquet , served emphatic
E notice on the world that "democ
racy , aad decency have joined
i ! i hands in the state of Nebraska and
! iI I l all hell cannot , put them asunder. "
) , Gratifying as this may be to all
I i , t true democrats it can hardly be
1 { considered in the light of recent
" news. Not only in Nebraska , but
i i
i Ill Il l " \ ' everywhere in the country true
, .democracy joined hands with true
1 " "
I ! i 1 . . deceflcy some several "years ago.
'
II ii E " 'The union had its beginning , we
i , i think , in the time of Thomas Jef
i 1 I ( \ - ferson. , It . was cemented ' the
closer under - Andrew rT Jackson
I and celebrated its hundredth an- ,
t i l l niversary w'hen the militant hosts I
I 11 I of the historic party rallied about
L the gonfalon of Bryan in 1896.
Bryan , it i is truo , may never have
been elected , president , as Govern-
' - or Shallenberger . reminded the
1 . I
banqueters. But , he has stood for
decency throughout his long : and
r
- arduous career . and the party , for
i
3 I
'I \ ; the most part , has stood with him. I ,
: ! i s 1 i So the joining of hands in a com
. " ! . mon cause did not occur for the I
( ' ' ' 1 : - first time , we are glad to belicvo , !
: i I either in last fall's campaign , or I
; I s \ yet : in the last Nebraska legisla , j
'I , I . ! i ture , though both gave much

speech , dress or manner ; fitting
and due regard for decorum ; mor-
al fitness ; becomingness ; absence
of or freedom from immodesty or I
obscenity ; proper delicacy of :
: speech or conduct ; modest demean-
or. " We may add a bit , however , ,
to the dictionary definition , and
extend the word to include hon-
esty and virtue , sincerity of pur- I
pose , a love for justice and a de I
votion to human rights , . when it is
applied to a political party. In
this broader sense democracy and
Decency are indeed synonomous
words , and have been ever since ,
from the inspired brain of the
great father of democracy , Thom-
as Jefferson , the Declaration of I
Independence sprang full pano- I I
plied to be at once the untiring
guardian of the liberties of the re
public and the constant monitor
of the democratic party , remind-
ing that governments are founded
among men to insure to all the
people their rights to life , liberty
and the pursuit of happiness.
Democracy does indeed stand
for decency in Nebraska , just as it
does elsewhere. It stands for the
right of the people to r ule. ] It
stands for personal l liberty. It
stands for an equality of oppor-
tunity. It stands as the immut-
able foe of privilege. It stands
for government by all the people ,
for all the people , and against I
government by any special class
or sect or interest or combination
of corporations. It , stands for
frankness , and courage , and
truthfulness , and fidelity. It I
stands , in Nebraska and in the na
tion , for honor in its public ser
vants , and every true democrat
resents that outraging of decency
committed by those democratic

Only so can democracy : and dec-
ency , like liberty and the union ,
exist now and forever , one and in
separable. And if they do not so
exist , then democracy must go
down. World-Herald.

I Want ! ! to be strong ? - . -
Eat more Quaker Oats. : Eat f it for
breakfast every day. This advice is
coming from all sides as a result of re-
cent experiments on foods to determine
which are the best for strength and en-
durance. It has been proved that eaters
of Quaker Oats and such cereals are far
superior in strength and endurance to
those who rely upon the usual diet of
heavy , greasy foods.
When all is said and done on the
cereal food question , the fact remains
that -for- economy and for results in
health and strength , Quaker Oats stands
first of all. It is the most popular food
in the world among the foods sold in
packages.
Put up in two sizes , the regular pack-
age and the large family size which is
more convenient for those who do not
live in town.
