scouring a permanent Increase In tho volumu of Btnndnrd monoy throughout tho world In othor wordB if wo havo bad times thoy aro due to tho accursed gold standard but if we havo good times and on a

has sold his Scribuor News toC K Fields of Omaha and in his good byo to tho people of that town Mr Weeks poiutodly says During tho nine and ono half years that I have lived in Soribuor I havo mado many true friends that it pains mo to leavo ami tho only balm in Ciilcad is tho com fort experienced in getting away from n few enemies whoso patrouago has con sisted in tho advice they gave and who never had a good word for The News or its publisher 1 do not liko the idea of leaving hero but 1 havo found n placo where I can uuiko a living a thing that has beon impossible hero for five years The words of Mr Weoks apply with equal force to many another community besides Scribuor but tho trouble with most of tho newspaper men is that they io not havo the nerve to quit a town whou fheir papers havo ceased to earn enough m furnish them a decent living Wo veuturo to say that ouo fourth or more of the papers now published in the state have not mado a living for their proprietors during tho past five years hut most of them havo hung on eating up what they invested in hopes that the other follow down street would shut up shop and give them a larger Held and a bettor opportunity to keep their papers alive The ditliculty is pot wholly with the newspaper mou either but the peoplo themselves pro very much to blame for this condition among tho newspapers in Nebraska Every town of 100 or 000 peoplo must havo two papers to roprcsout tho two political parties and tlieu whou the town is a little larger there must be two papers to represent the two factious of the dom inant party Then the businoss men who should be especially interested in buildiug up a legitimate number of strong newspapers in a town capable ot ably represeutiug the community in which they aro published with good circulations and commanding the ro spect of the people porsist in dividing their business to such an extent that all are obliged to run on a cheap basis and very few are what they would be could they

Ouullllrittlonn oCtlie Nevt Speaker On tho first Monday in next Decembor unless unforeseen events occur you Gon David B Henderson will be elected speaker of tho house of representatives Tho position is one of remarkablo power and honor It was formerly only twice removed from tho presidency nud nlthough the lino of succossiou hns been properly diverted there is no diminution of its glory Speakers of tho house have been in tho pnst and will continue to be in the future important factors in moulding tho countrys history nnd you may well feel honored thnt upon yon will fall the mantlo so worthily won by many uotnbly Clay Colfax Blaine Randall aud Heed It will seenistruugo in this day nud generation to see the gavel in the hands of a republican othor than Mr Thomas B Reed Nothing but the lnttors voluntary choice could mako this possible Mr Reed is such a dominating charaoter he towers so loftily abovo all his colleagues in the house that the distinction of leadership would naturally be accorded to him with unanimity as long as he desired to accept it As tho immediate successor to so great a man ns Mr Reed you will sutler at first from comparison It is fortunnte therefore that you are in natural temperament nnd charac teristics his very antithesis For instance Mr Reed is a master of sarcasm you do not know the moaning of tho word Ho is cold satirical aud calculating you nro wnrm nnd generous hearted IIo is not companionablo you could not and would not avoid sociability Ho moves like a massive car of Juggernaut not hes itating to crush oven tho prostrate forms in his path your genial and sunshiny nature would shrink from inflicting a wound He measures every word with careful precision while yon pour forth eloquent sentences with volcanic force aud prodigal indifference In scores of other characteristics the ooutrnst is equally marked but I have enumerated snfllciont to show that nt least you vyill not be a miniature Reed You will be Hendorson Consequently you will be judged by your own standard and you possess an individuality that will prevent your being veiled in the shadow of the physical aud mental giant whose place you are to occupy It is extremely fortunate that you hnve had mauy years of experience in congressional lifo that you are a good politician that yoa are a man of broad veiws and endowed with the prime quality of common sense developed in large degree A word to tho uext speaker by a friend of Gen Henderson in tho September Forum It is said apropos to the becoming of a British subject of William V Astor that Queen Victoria is going to bring suit against Uncle Sam for passing a bad bid oft on her Justice Again llcrcntcd Franco has mado nnothor iloapcrnte oust in tho hope of snving from tho ilia groco it dosorves hor idol tho nrmy Or rathor at this timo It would bo just to flay that tho nrmy hnB mado tho cast as many of tho peoplo of tho republic havo bocomo nwakoncd to tho truo situ ation nnd nro no longer firm in thoir worship and support of thoir onco idol Dreyfus has boon re convicted of tho ouorinoiiB crimo for which ho spent bucIi bitter years of intetiBo misory on Isle du Plable IIo was convicted not becanso ho was guilty not becanso ho hnd en dangered tho safety of Franco or the honor of her army not becauso tho people of that republic domandod his conviction but becauso tho high and heretofore honored head of tho nrmy ncedod n sacrifice to thoir honor bo ciiuso tho toils wore slowly but surely closing nround this head nnd would cor tnlnly result in its eouiploto and dis graceful overthrow Thoy hope in this way to escapo tho punishment that is surely coming but will they Tho mills of thogods grind slowly but they grind exceeding small nnd if tho head of tho army of Franco does not in timo moot its merited pun ishment peoplo will be compelled to ac knowledge thnt tho abovo proposition heretofore infallible has for onco met defeat Tho nrmy hns ulready received its partial puuishmout in suicides heart aches aud worry nnd thnt worry is still distressing the actors in this horrible tragedy Thoy renlic that their honor whilo for tho present it is tem porarily upheld the time is coming when a greater snenfice will be needed nnd that sacrifice will bo nothing short of this same head Thoy have staved off tho calamity but at what cost Forgery intriguo porjury attempted murder and all the evils that could possibly serve their ends have been employed to the conviction of Captain Dreyfus Fear of their lives from an outraged pnblio compelled those engaged in tho trial to observe tho ut most precautions Armed guards and secret detectives were in attendance on all thoir deliberations and tho result is still far from satisfactory Tho people outside of Fiance had con fidentially up to a few days ago looked for Dreyfus to be cleared and given his liberty but sober second thought ac knowledged its impossibility as that meant tho overthrow of men high in power and the disgrace of the army The Rennes court martial which stood five to two for the conviction of the suffering captain has often mani fested marked partiality to tho prosecu tion admitting the most suspicious sort of evidence that would lend plausibility to its course whilo the defense was handicapped at every opportunity It is gouerally believed that tho people of Franco are justice loving and take the same viow of tho proceedings that is taken by tho outside world aud that they will not submit to this outrage is considered probablo A continuance of such farcical proceedings means the disgrnce uud overthrow of the republic but it is safe to presume that thoy will not be allowed to continue Friends of tho republic sinoerely hope so at least The spirit of fairness nud harmony which prevailed throughout the repub lican conference Saturday evening in dicates that the desire of every dolegato present was to promote the interests of tho party with a willingness to do everything possible to secure tho snecess of the ticket at the fall election Every thing considered not nenrly the bitter ness was developed in the conference that was ftared At the critical time when the next few moments meaut the selection of one or the other of the two men as tho candidate there woro some shnrp exchauges of oratory but when the result was flunlly renched tho best of feoiug prevniled nnd as one of tho delegates expressed it When I camo into this hall I was a Clements mau but now I am for Jard uer nnd will do all I can for his elec tion Mr Clements himself rotniued his composure throughout the whole proceeding and at its closo expresssd himself fully satisfied with the result which was mado jKissible only through his witdrawnl from tho race aud which ho did in a manner that gained for him many new friends Mr Gardner will make a strong candidate at the polls aud the harmony which now prevails in the republican party will go a long wuys toward making his electiou sure What desperate efforts the democrats aro making to harmonize Realizing the seriousuess of his recent criticism of Bryan Senator Morgan at the earnest request of his friends has made another statement iu which he says that after all Bryan is the logical candidato He also reiterates his confidence iu expansion and says thnt Brynu and McKinley stand together on the platform of pushing tho wur to a successful termina tion in the Philippines This is doubt less refreshing news both for President MoKinley and Candidate Bryan Iu ISO the Iowa democrats carrird 28 couuties in 1890 they carried 17 and in 1S9S only 10 Iu the
