That the fusionists nroj hard up for campaign matorial in Nebraska is ovi donoed by tho fact that tho only action of tho ropublicau state couvoutiou thoy can object to is tho oleotlou of John M

is becoiuiug moro and moro trans parent to tho peoplo every day and tho steady decline of tho fusion power is due in a largo measure to its campaign tac tics and tho republicans should ask nothing hotter than for it to proceed on tho lines laid down by its precedent Tho following which originated iu the Plain view News a populist news paper and has been quoted by and has the endorsement of many papers of tho opposition is about as warm a compli ment to Mr Hays as could bo asked A gentleman who is worthy of this sort of comment from the opposition is cer tioly worthy to reprosout Jtho Third

general Chaplain Ohm le C lVrco htutes as tho result of his ex perience that tho moral of our army has greatly improved in tho thirteen years I have been p rnuttol to judge of it by pergonal contact with its soldiers aud it glvos mo pleasure to refer to Bishop Potter of New Yoik who was my guesst for six days prior to my de parture from Muuila and to tho surprise mauifisted by him at the groundlessness of many of the chargis and ciitloisms which had been voiced in America 1v many persons in connection with this Mibjnnt I think ho will join me in saying that our army is composed of men of quite as high n type as tho ranks in civil llfo from which they were re cruited and that they are men worthy of a nations honor Tho majority opposed to tho repub lican party In Nebraska has been stead ily declining ever since fusion was ac complished and it is undoubted in the minds of many that it will be utterly dissipated this fall Beforo fusion was olleeted the populist party Iackod but a few thousand votes of being as strong as the republican party while tho dem ocratic party was not far behind tho populist iu strength Tho ropublicau party cast but little moro thnu ono third of tho

him down In 1S00 ho was chairman of tho ropublicau national couvoutiou and has siuco SDrved his state in tho Uuitod States souato To decline to give him any kind of recognition would bo a slap that would not ouly embitter him but thoso who yet oliug to him as a model statesman Ho realizes as well as any one that his race as a politician is about run and this will undoubtedly bo tho hist mark of recognition he will ask at tho hands of the party in this state When it is remembered that he received tho smallest voto of any of tho four del egates elected it will be seen that he was not evon allowed the privilego of going to Philadelphia without consid erable misgivings ou the part of the couvoutiou And yet it was as littlo as tho party could do for its senator on tho eve of his
