Of Course-Why Hot?
Inasmuch as the Three Tailors of
Tooley street resolved certain important
thinks in the name of "we, the people of
England," there is no earthly reason
why the "anti-imperialists" of the Uni
ted States should not extend their pro
tecting influence over the destinies of
the Nation on a somewhat similar plan.
The report from Washington, therefore,
that they are about to form a brand new
political party, with all the modern im
provements, is not at all alarming. They
should go ahead by all means. Their
performances would brighten up the
gloom very decidedly. To help the
scheme along the Mail and Express begs
to offer the following suggestions:
FOU PKESIDENT.
W. J. Bryan of Nebraska, if not oth
erwise engaged.
FOK VICE PRESIDENT.
Edward Atkinson of Massachusetts, if
he can get the permission of Emilio
Aguinaldo.
platform:
Resolved, That the American eagle is
a buzzard.
Resolved, That we hereby denounce
the Puritans for not obtaining the con
sent of the governed.
Resolved, That Admiral George Dewey
shall be tried by court martial for his
discourtoous treatment of the Spanish
fleet in Manila bay.
Resolved, That the American soldiers
now operating in the Philippines shall
be brought home and slapped into jail
for the reckless use of firearms.
Kesolved, mat tlie man wuo says
Aguinaldo is a treacherous wretch is no
gentleman.
Resolved, That tho present adminis
tration has fractured the southeast cor
ner of the declaration of independence
and forced the American constitution
into innocuous desuetude.
uesoiveu, mat we uo now take up a
collection.
This is merely an outline platform,
but it fuirly represents the principles to
which the "anti-imperialists" are com
mitted. As for the ticket suggested
above, it is running over with voice and
sympathy, and would sweep Dedham,
Mass., and the Third ward of Lincoln,
Neb., like a prairie fire in August. The
new party can't get into the field too
soon. The bars are down, the clover is
knee high, and the newcomer can cavort
and be glad. Make ready, everybody, to
welcome the little stranger! New York
Mail and Express.
The Facts in the Case
(President Schuriuan.)
The rebellion is not u Philippine re
bellion. It is a Togalog rebellion.
The rebellion does not even embrace
all of the islands of Luzon.
The Filipinos are a desirable sort of
people.
The Filipinos will, when peace is re
stored, yield to the elevating and soft
ening influences of education.
No more than 1,500,000 of the !),000,000
peoplo of the Philippines are in revolt.
The people of the big Negros island
are friendly.
All of the other people of the Phil
ippine group of 800 islands, with the ex
ception of the Tagalogs, who comprise
one-half of the natives of Lnzon, are
neutral. The natives of the other
islands, who are nominally in revolt, are
in fact only terrorized and coerced by
the Tagalogs.
Two generations of education in the
Philippines will bring the people of
these islands to a state of advancement
that will equal in most essentials that of
the Japanese.
The Suln group, comprising the
southern third of the Philippine group
of islands, is at peace and will remain so.
The sultan of Suln has accepted the
situation, only asking favor at the hands
of the United States.
F0ST0 FJCAHS O00D S0LDIEKS
Plan of Enlisting Islanders in Regu
lar Army is a Success.
According to recent advices received
at the War department the experiment
of enlisting natives of the West Indies
into the American army has proved
quite successful in the case of the Porto
Rican battalion of United States volun
teers, which body completed its organi
zation a few weeks ago. This battalion
is commanded by Major L. P. Davidson
and is the only one of its kind in the
army.
Lieutenant Bryant, who is the battal
ion adjutant, has written a letter to
Major Johnston cf the adjutant gener
al's office, speaking in high terms of the
men. He says that the Porto Rican
soldiers are a fine lot of men, obedient
and willing to work, and take great
pride in being soldiers of the United
States army, and always dress very clean
and neat. His opinion is that Porto
Rican soldiers, officered by Americans,
will be a success and a valuable addition
to the United States army.
It was purely a coincidence, but all
the more interesting for that reason.

Smyth for putting up a fight against
them by bringing action against the

part of the situation was that the chair
man of the convention was the local
manager for the Standard Oil company.
Of course he doesn't need to surrender
any deep-seated convictions for a mod
erate salary, but if Mr. Rockefeller calls
for a report on the matter and asks why
nis employes are denouncing him it will
be nothing more than fair for the demo
crats to furnish the chairman of the
convention with an office. Fremont

Geobge Wilson, who Tuesday last
committed an assault upon the 4-year-old
daughter of Albert Burchard at
Falls City, was, at an early hour of
Wednesday morning, in the jail, emascu

tried to excuse himself by saying this
was his first offense, and that he had
been drinking.
It is generally understood that the
government has paid the Nebraska sol
diers as traveling expenses something
like $20,000 more than the actual cost
to them would have been had advanced
contributive loans to the state not been
forthcoming to save the soldiers that
much more.
Very long will be the way, very hard

band wagon in Nebraska. For the good
of the state, for the good of Bryan, we

Holcomb's name off the ticket. Pa

Let us develop our own natural re
sources, making the very best use of
materials near at hand. An exchange
remarks:
"LaBt year Great Britain exported 5,
216,491,300 yards of cotton goods, while
this country exported but 412,004,055
yards, and yet the United States raises
the cotton. There is plenty of room for
more American cotton mills, in the
South especially.
Continue the policy of protection,
with reciprocity, and we need have no
fear of results.
Theodore Olan, a Swedish chemist
at Washington, has accidentally discov
ered a new element which will soften
steel, gold, silver aud many other metals,
making them soft, pliable and ductile as
a piece of putty and quite as safely
handled. He calls it tauric acid, be
cause it is obtained from taurus moss, n
peculiar fungus, which grows upon rocks
and the roots of trees very generally in
the country. The discovery is regarded
as one of the wonders of the world of
chemistry.
The Journal believes that there is
an opportunity for republicans of Platte
county to elect at least a portion of a
good ticket this fall, possibly all of it,
in case of certain contingencies. All
parts of the county should be repre
sented. Every man nominated should
be clearly competent, capable and faith
ful, with capacities especially adapted
to the office for which he is named. "A
strong pull all together" will certainly
do the republicans good, and make the
campaign exceedingly interesting to the
three-cornered alliance.
SELFISHNESS.
Ve Xeavlr Alvrmya Dlacatver It la
Other, ami Never lat Oanalvea.
Probably the most insidious of all the
faults is that upon the absence of which
we moet pride ourselves, and that at the
same time we notice most readily in
others. In some of us it is pride, in
others gossiping. Tho list is long, aud
we know it without goiug into details,
but that which we do not seem to real
ize is that the very most common fault
of us all as a mass is selfishness.
Wo do know that nearly every ono
we meet is selfish, but we seldom dis
cover how selfish we are ourselves un
less shown by a sudden touch of deep
regret. Mobt of ns discover, for in
stance, that we were selfish in refer
ence to eome dear friend dead, bnt we
stop right there, and while we regret
the past and shed useless tears over the
lost chance we do not make any new
discoveries namely, that we are selfish
to our living friends and while we
think that they are being unfair, un
kind, to us we forget to be generous
ourselves, to look beyond the frown,
the hard word, the selfish act or neglect,
and see what it is that causes all this,
to see what strain our frieud is bearing
and share it in so far as patience, gener
ous forbearance, will lighten it
Think how selfish most of ns have
been in time gone by, how'quick words
have gone out to hurt hearts already
hurt, when from ns at least that partic
ular cross friend had a right to hope
for better things.
Do not make a very close examina
tion of things in general and see whether
yon are not yourself more selfish than
are your friends, and remember that
the greatest generosity in this world is
to have patience with others in their
"selfishness," for in half the cases at
leatt it is pain or worry, not real in
tended unkindneesatall. Philadelphia

Many county superintendents and
principals the past year have expressed
to Director Wallace their appreciation
of the work done at the Preparatory
School to the State University at Lin
coln. They recognize that it supplies
the lacking link between the smaller
schools and the University. Several
principals have asked for announce
ments to distribute to their students,
as they wished them to finish prepara
tion for the University. During the
year, nine principals, three city school
superintendents, numerous other teach
ers and deficient University students
attended advanced classes in this school.
Students feom eighth grade and country
schools enter the lower classes and com
plete the work in one and one-half to
two years, thus saving two years or
more of time and consequent expense.
