Socrotnry ,
In view of the high prices of beef
steak and pork it is not astonishing that
fishing is an u.xcuodlugly popular pastitno
this spring.
It is almost tiiuo for the pessimists to
begin complaining of the drouth. It
hasn't rained in this portion of Nebraska
for almost a weok.
If th'o prices of cattle and hogs con
tinue to go skyward the farmer and
etockmau will soon ho compelled to con
st met dynami'.o-proof pig stys and cor
rals to prevent the people with a moat
appetite from appropriating their fatted
nuimals.
It Is fortunate for the democrats that
they have that old and thread bare
tariff issue to fall back on , otherwise
they might bo left without any issue
whatever when the presidential cam
paign of 1901 rolls around. Their other
paramouutcios have not been made to
stick worth a cent.
The European countries will soon be
gin to look upon a visit from Morgan
&s portending more evil to their com
merce , and will bo ready to join with
the populists at homo in condemning the
.American plutocrat and the octopus pro-
B . > utcd by him. Ho is an American and
the kind of financier that will make the
Rothschilds and other leading European
financiers look like pygmiea in their
dealings.
If there is a windmill trust It must
have been responsible for furnishing
that overdose of motive power last week ,
and as a consequence the factories are
now Hooded with a surfeit of orders
for new mills and repairs. One of the
leading factories claims to have orders
for about a thousand mills and is several
weeks behind. The trust took a mean
advantage of the farmers' prosperity by
having the calamity scheduled to take
place in their busy season and compel
them to pump water for the stock when
they should be growing corn to fatten
the animals.
Omaha officials , while convinced that
a death sentence is none to good for dogs
whose owners have not paid the license
tax , have decided that such a sentence
should be executed with .the least pos
Bible fuss and pain to the animals.
They have therefore constructed an airtight -
tight chamber in which 25 dogs may bo
dispatched at a clatter by the use of
churcoal gas. The new arrangement
lias the approval of the humane society
and was given its fin > t trial Wednesday.
Perhaps the better way would have been
to iubtitnte a painless method of extract *
jug the tax from the pocket of the dogs'
masters. Such an arrangement would
certainly have been more satisfactory
to the city treasury.
The Lincoln politicians are flattering
themselves that they have succeeded in
dhcoucerting the rank and file of the
party by having Governor Savage with-
aruw from the race at this time and that
they will yet bo Rticcoimfiil in naming a
candidate who will follow in the gov
ernor's footntopH and do their bidding.
Tluiy Hhould bo in no hurry to celebrate
what they bollevu to bo n shrewd politi
cs ! maneuver. While the governor in
out of their way , ho In aim ) removed
from the coiiNldoratioiuof his opponents
and they will , instead of devoting their
onorgicHjtoward defeating Governor Sav
age , havu an opportunity to concentrate
on Bomo good man and go to the con
vention onthnsianttcally united in hta
support. Their Huhomo la ( [ nlto shrewd
but thin to the year that the voterx of
the party nro awake and they will un
dertake to HCO to it that a candidate Htiit-
able to thorn and not to the old ring of
politicians is named. There are a num
ber of good men of tills character and
W. M. Robertson of thin olty ix among
them.

ORDERS TO MERRITT STRICT.
United States Not Committed to Any
Policy In Philippines.
Washington , May 2. Major General
Mat-Arthur yesterday continued his
testimony before thu senate committee
on the Philippines. Answering a ques
tion by Senator Gulbersou , the general
stated that Agulnaldo and the Filipino
people wore justified in concluding
that the actions of the United States ,
army are sympathetic.
The Filipinos , he said , were in a re
sentful and vindictive opposition to
Spain and any active force on their
part against Spain naturally helpcrl
the United States and vice versa , but ,
ho said , there was a distinct purpose
through the Intercourse between the
Americans and the Filipinos to repudi
ate the Idea of direct co-operation
which In any way committed the Unit
ed States' to a policy.
General Merrltt , ho said , was undei
ho strictest orders not to commit the
government , but Agulnaldo was anx-
ous to make an artificial record which
would oblige General Morrltt to do
something ho did not want to do. "Tho
flllplno , " said General MacArthur ,
'has quite a comprehensive knowl
edge of Latin diplomacy. "
Agulnaldo was landed at Manila
aboard an American warship because
: io was a useful Individual who could
1)0 employed in a miinnor that would
contribute to American success.
