It is really , a business y . that belongs to the , , railroads and express com panies which in turn ought to be- < long l to the government. Since ' ? there is a demand fora parcels : post bill it is evident that the rail- roads and express companies do fcot fill the bill afod they never will I " , satisfactorily from the peoples' standpoint. . : But our > > government can pay the railroad companies in ' bulk and parcel it.out : . to the peo- ,1 , r < .

If we could - nake the here that . . .1 you see point , . ifc'would be better that the govern- " \ inent own , these railroads and par- - c l out the mail , freight , expre.cs tand transportation to the people , ' then you can go on with parcels post bill-understanding that it is 1 _ t . fe . , suppjy . .

Moses "Present" Kinkaid. r One of the most important reso- lutions before the house of reprefc sentatives in recent years was be- fore congress last Thursday. It was not in the resolution itself that the great principle existed but in the amendment offered by the leader of the , Nebraska delegation , , Hon. G. W. Norris of McCook. It came up on the question of ap pointing a' committee from the house to investigate the charges : made by L. R. Glavis , late field agent of the general land office , against Commissioner Ballinger of the general land office. The rules of the house provide that , unless otherwise provided in the resolutions , that all commit- tee-- = , whether permanent or ' spec - ial , be appointed by the Speaker and it is this rule that has brought down upon Speaker Cannon the wrath of "insurgents" and the strenuous opposition of a large majority of ardent republicans of the middle : western states. Con- gressrnen who were , opposed to 'Cannon ' and ' Caniionisra claimed the only way to curtail the power of the speaker was for the liou.se to appoint the committees. When the resolution authorizing the appointment : of the above com- mittee was before the house Con- gressman Norris offered an amend- ment that the committee be ap pointed by the house. On -the vote on this amendment the demo- crats joined with the "insurgents' and voted for the amendment and and it ' was adopted receiving a majority of three votes. All the members of congress from . . . Ne- raska , republicans and democrats , voted for this amendment except Kinkaid , and he did not even have the sand to vote against it , being one of five men who were content b to sit supinely in their seats and answer "present" while their col leagues were making liistory. The fires of discontent and dis satisfaction with the last years' of- ficial I record of the Sixth district congressman have been smolder- ing for many months , in fact since he violated his ante-election prom- ise and voted for Cannon , and if the sentiment of the people here is any criterion to judge the rest of the district -by the smoldering embers are liable to burst into a blaze that will sweep the Sixth district like a prairie fire. The seeds of distrust have been sown and it will take more than a clam- my hand shake or promises un 1 fulfilled to assauge the wrath of the people for , that one word "present. " - The O'Neill Frontier ( republican ) . , When a western Nebraska editor J was told of a lady in his town who , kneaded bread with her gloves on , he came back in this truthful wise : "This indeed may be somewhat J peculiar , but there are others. The editor of this paper needs bread with his shoes " on. He also i needs breads wilk his pants on , and ! unless some of _ the delinquent r Hubscribers to this Old Rag : of I e Freedom pay up before long , he will ( I need bread without a blamed z thingon [ - and Nebraska . .i is . no Garden of.

Esprrially is it growing in rural commin.ities where citizens , who never heard or cared for Ballinger , are rpad- ing every' lineof , the dispute \ \ ith i i < terest. " This interest has in al- most . pvery r , case culminated in sympathy for Pinchot and enmity against . Taft and his plutocratic advisors wfien the president so summarily discharged , the * chief forester. ; s -4 ' Facts are 'facts , and the day , is when "white-wash" we hope is'past - , will cover up . dirty work. " The American people-hoi polloi , if you will- are easy-going po itic- ally and have for years put 'up with much at the hands of auto- cratic politicians in Washington , whose chief occupation has lain in shaping legislation ! in favor of those interests who derive their wealth from legalized rob- bery of the common people. In . . . return these interests donated heavily to the funds of the party in power so that a campaign . could be waged in such a manner as to deceive the rank and file of the republican party who innocently I assisted by their voice and votes in furthering the very interests which they-as reasoning men knew were inimical to the country's wel- . fare. Any illusion to the real pur- poses of the election of certain men would immediately call forth the cry of "democrat , " "agita- " " " tor" or demagogue. But they eyes of this . same . re , publican rank and file have been opened and are being opened wid- er every day by the rapid events in the epoch of national politics now in Washington. They see how they have been duped and man-handled by their own leaders. They see how the name and mean- ing of the word "republican" has been prostituted of late . years and instead of all that it implied in the days of Abe Lincoln , now means . a party dominated by a few.men bent on keeping the country . in , the clutches of those "interests" , whose constitution means . special franchise ; whose declaration of independence means perpetual in- junctions against the laboring man , and whose coat of arms is the dollar mark. . But , mark you , these same . re- publicans now have their eyes op- en. Let them act in . accordance . with the facts as they find them.- Auburn Herald. f , . ! . , An old resident ' of Nemaha l county gives the following figures on the cold'spell of 1888.
