The Prohibitionists are opposing
the Republican party because it is not
in favor of prohibition, and the
Democrats oppose it because they
ay it is in favor of prohibition in
Nebraska. The Republican party,
assisted by a large number of patriot
ic Democrats who believod that the
people should rule, once upon a time
put down a slave-holders' rebellion,
which was based upon the theory
that the will of the people was not
to be respected when it touched
the Divine institution of slavery.
The American people (of whom Ne
braska is a component part) aro
abundantly capable of self govern
ment, notwithstanding the assump
tion to the contrary of the democracy
iu this campaign that they should
not be privileged to pass upon the
Question of abolishing traffic in
liquor. So far as the Journal is
concerned, tho present law is the
approved method of dealing with
this subject. We believe it is the
best in the United States. Now, let
well enough alone. But this, it
seems, will not do. It does not suit
tho prohibitionists ; they want state
prohibition, national prohibition, and
they seem to recognize as a fact that
the Republican party, practical in iu
views on this subject as on all other,
holding the strong average opinion
that strikes the ordinary citizen as
susceptible of enforcement, 9tauds as
a rock against their scheme for
founding a new political party. The
Democracy slipped into power on
the backs of the prohibitionists, and
have a very friendly feeling for them,
and would use them again whenever
they can in Nebraska, as in New
York, iu Platte county, as elsewhere.
Let any voter in Platte or Colfax
counties ask himself which party is
giving encouragement to the pro
hibition party, aud ho will very
readily 6ee that it is he Democracy ;
there is no guess work about this it
is a fact. Newspapers are a fair in
dex of public sentiment. Examine
them, and you will find that the De
mocracy, while misrepresenting the
submission plank of the Republican
platform as a declaration in favor of
prohibition, give every encourage
ment in their power to the Prohibi
tion party, because through it, Cleve
land carried New York, and through
it they may possibly hope to carry at
least some of the legislative districts
of Nebraska.
The broad theory upon which the
republican party stands is this: let
us first be sure we have a govern
ment, a freeman's government where
the voter's ballot will be freely re
ceived, fairly counted and honestly
returned, and until this is fully ac
complished, let all other matters be
secondary not neglected of course,
not slighted, not iguored, but let us
make it altogether impossible that
there shall be auy re-actiouary
measures, auythiug coiniug from the
late rebels that will endanger the
very life of the government; let us
stand together solidly for a govern
ment that will protect with all its
strength the very weakest aud poor
est of its citizens whose rights are in
jeopardy, in any state of the Union,
in the remotest regiou of the repub
lic, as well as upon foreign soil.
While the dwelling-house is iu
jeopardy of fire from an enemy, let
us not be called off from duty by a
false alarm elsewhere.
Patrick M. Hljcsjlan.
The republican nominee for senator
of this district, is a man well worthy
the place. Born in county Mayo,
Ireland, in 1842, he is in the prime of
his manhood. Eleven years ago he
became a citizen of Colfax county,
settling in Colfax precinct, where he
has since resided.
He is a well-to-do farmer, owns
480 acres of land, a large herd of
cattle, etc., etc. One of the objec
tions sometimes made to candidates
for representative is that their in
terests are not sufficiently largo to
identify them with those of the
county or district. This cannot be
said of Mr. Higgins.
His political opponents say that he
is a good citizen, and that there is
nothing to be said against him per
sonally. The nomination was not of his own
seeking, but fell to him as one com
bining the elements of success in this
campaign. Mr. Higgins is an ardent,
enthusiastic supporter of Senator
Van Wyck, and those in this cam
paign who wish to see a vote in the
state senate for Yan Wyck and not
against him, from this district, will
cast their ballot for Mr. Higgins.
There is no manner of question about
this. The democratic leaders iu this
district, iu this county, are not for
Van Wyck, but are doing all they
can, in a quiet way uow, and will do
all they can after the election, in any
way, to defeat Van Wyck's return to
the senate. North is not for Van
Wyck, Folda is not, neither are Sul
livan, Terwillegar or Fucbs, and
"don't you forget to remember" this
when you come to cast your ballot.
But if you vote for Higgins for the
senate or for Robison, Bowman or
Irwin for the house you are sup
porting men who will support Van
Wyck, and whose votee may, pos
sibly, be the ones necessary to his
election.
Patrick Higgins will make a better
senator than Mr. Folda, for he will
take a livelier interest in affairs ; he
is more wide-awake to public mat
ters ; he is more social in bis disposi
tion, and will be able to do more
effective work in the senate ; being a
member of the dominaut political
party, he will have more influence
with other senators la accomplishing
what his constituents may want
done.
Platte county voters will probably
have au opportunity this week ot
becoming acquainted with Mr. Hig
gins, and .can judge for themselves as
to our estimate of his character.
Talk It Saaaro.
Democrats are trying to decsiva
people on tho prohibition question.
Now, when auy of them solicit yoar
vote for North or Folda or
Fuche or Sillivan or Terwillegar,
on account of prohibition, a?k him if
a man could not be greatly in favor
i of submitting the question to a vote
of the people, and yet be utterly op
posed to prohibition. On the wo
man suffrage proposition thousands
favored the submission to vote who
afterwards voted agaiast the proposi
tion. Submission to a vote of the
people, with one campaign, will
carry the questiou clear out of poli
tics. Prohibition democrats iu
democratic states don't allow this
question to interfere with the suc
cess of their party. The short of it,
according to the Journal's think
ing, ib about this : the state of public
opinion is such that the extremists
either way will not satisfy. No
regulation at all of the liquor traffic,
no license, however small, in other
words the unrestricted sale as a man
would sell calico, potatoes, or sugar,
might suit some, but it would very
soon be found by everybody to be
highly unjust to other interests and
very impracticable; the other ex
treme, like the other end of ft severed
ring, is not far away from this, where
public opinion is not in sight with
strength enough to carry such a law
into effect. What does this leave us ?
The present law, as good a practical
statute as there is in the United
States for getting the least evil from
the traffic, and compelling it to pay
something to that public which is at
so great expense in administering
the laws because of it
It was a republican legislature
which put this law upon our statute
hooks. Compel your democratic
Irictitls to be candid and fair ou this
subject. Ask them whether they are
in favor of the preseut law, which
satisfies the average citizen. Compel
them, while trying to catch the un
wary with chaff, to tell just exactly
where they stand on this question.
To the best of our recollection, the
democracy of Nebraska have, neither
in state nor county convention, ever
dared oppose the Slocumb law, en
acted by the republicans. The party
which has done so well, may be
trusted to let well enough alone, or
amend in such ways as experience
has Bhown may be helpful in fur
thering the public good.

Everybody rejoices that the strike
of the pork-packing men is oyer.
There wasatime when a strike didn't
cause that feeling of general uneasi
ness among those only indirectly in
terested which it now does. But a
strike of any considerable magnitude
carries with it a feeling of half
defined terror. It contains possibili
ties to be dreaded. Aside, then,
from auy direct interest iu the dif
ference between the packers and
their employers there is a general
feeling of relief that the trouble is
over.
Without passing any judgment ou
the merits of the case the Mail can
not repress its commendation of the
conduct of the men duriug the time
they were ouL The cool, calm good
sense, moderation, aud magnificent
organization of the Knights of Labor
were never displayed to better ad
vantage than in this case. It must
be recalled that the number of strik
ers was great. A good many of
them, doubtless, were not averse to
extreme measures. Some certainly
were ready for violence.
The Kuights took hold of the case.
They cowed the turbulent elemeuta.
They set the heel of their powerful
order on every attempt at disorder
and crushed it still-born. They de
tailed men to guard their employers'
property and repress all violent
tendencies. They prevailed even
over the saloons and practically pre
vented all drunkenness. They con
trolled themselves. When the de
nouement came they set an example
of obedience to authority that chal
lenges admiration. There is uo
doubt that the large majority of tho
strikers did not relish the decision of
the executive committee. As Mr.
Barry said, it was medicine to them.
But, recognizing that they could not
control lawlessness and disobedience
in others if they refuse to be
law-abiding and obedient themselves,
they submitted to the orders of their
officers without a murmur and with
out a protest.
It is safe to say that the order of
the Knights of Labor stands higher
today in the estimation of all law
abiding people than it ever did be
fore. It has completely disencum
bered itself from the distrust which
the complication of last May awoke.

Readers of the Journal are aware
that there is a proposition pending
for their decision, as to whether the
sessions of the legislature shall be CO
days, instead of 40 as at present, and
the pay of members $5 a day instead
of $3.
Considering all things, it is prob
ably best that the proposition should
be carried. While a member can, by
economical living, with ft private
family or at a second-class hotel at
Lincoln, save some of his salary for
other than expenses for board and
lodging, the saving is small at the
best, nothing at all generally, and
with many the sum of expenses is far
beyond the salary.
Members elect usually attend the
legislature with considerable financial
disadvantage to themselves by being
absent from their means of gaining a
livelihood, and not being able to
properly supply their place.
The state is abundantly able to pay
ii way aud treat its chosen servants
with that pousideration which the
importance of l.heir service demands.
While it is true that' no man is
compelled to accept the pay offered
unless be wishes to that is to say he '
is not obliged to be a candidate for
office there are always other coa
siderations which weigh far more
than the pecuniary oiee,audvet no
one likes to lose money while serviag
the public.
Of all. the offices known to our
system of government that of county
commissioner or supervisor, and rep

among the most important, and, at
the same time, the poorest paid,
either in money or thanks.
A hundred Piakerton men were
discharged the other afternoon at the
stock yarns at Chicago as their ser
vices were no longer needed. When
they left, the crowd greeted them
with yells of derision, and iu passing

yelled and threw stones at the cars
and the crowd was fired upon by the
detectives and a shot struck Dennis
Ballett, a teamster of the town and
fatally, wounded him. The Pinkerton
men who did the shooting were
locked up in cells.
