The right or wrong of the : par- '
eels post bill depends upon the
; . provisions therein contained. It
is really , a business y . that belongs to
the , , railroads and express com
panies which in turn ought to be-

' ?
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

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

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

I A Prostituted Party. .
Interest in the Ballinger in \.f'S-
tigation is growing. 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.-

I If you are subject to constipa-
tion , you should avoid strong 'd rugs
I and cathartics. They only give
. temporary relief and their reaction
\ is \ > harmful and sometimes""more
j annoying than constipation.- : They
in no way effect a cure and their
tendency is to weaken the already
weak organs with which they com&
in contact. .
. We honestly believe that we
have the best constipation treat-
ment , ever devised. Our faith in
it is so strong that we sell it on
the positive guarantee that it sjaall
' not cost the user a cent if it does
not give entire satisfaction and
completely , remedy constipation.
This preparation is called Rexall
Orderlies. These are prompt ,
soothing and most effective in ac-
tion. They are made of a recent
chemical discovery. Their prin-
cipal ingredient is odorless , taste-
less and colorless. Combined with
other known ingredients , long es :
tablished for their usefulness in
the treatment of constipation , it
forms a tablet which is eaten just
like candy. They may be taken
at any time , either day or night ,
without 1 fear of their causing any
inconvenience whatever. They
do not gripe , purge nor cause .
nausea. They act without causing
any pain or excessive looseness of
the bowels. They are ideal for
children , weak , delicate persons ;
and aged people as well as-for the
most hearty person.
They come in two size . packages ,
12 tablets 10 cents , 36 tablets 25
cents. Remember you can obtain
them only at our store-the Rexall
Store. ' -
