What will the paramount issue be
this year?
What has become of the Nebraska
Government Ownership Club ?
Taft continues to get the delegates.
He will probably be nominated by
acclamation.
Alabama will not be unanimous for
Bryan at the Denver convention. One
of the Johnson delegates was elected
at the primaries.
' It is more creditable to Mr. Bryan
to hare lost in Pennsylvania with the
Gufty crowd against him, than to have
won with its support
Mae Woods, Senator Piatt's alleged
wife, got what was coming to her. She
has been, arrested for perjury in New
York and is now in jail awaiting trial.
Johnson polled 40 per cent of the
vote at the primary election in Ala
bama. This isvjust 30 per cent more
than the Bryan managers said he
would get
Henry Beiber and John Young, two
Pittsburg bank looters, intimate
friends of Senator Penrose and Colonel
Gufty, have been sentenced to serve
term in the penitentiary.
Senator Bayner, in a recent speech,
alluded to President Roosevelt as a
"tyrant." This is not the first in
stance of a Southern Fire Eater insult
ing a President. Lincoln was branded
at an ape, a clodhopper, a tyrant and
a dictator, and then shot to death by a
hot head -"of the Bayner brand of
agitators.
One of the surprises in the returns
from the primary election in Alabama,
was the number of votes cast for Gov
ernor Johnson. The Minnesota man
carried Mobile, Montgomery and Bir
mingham. Although Bryan carried
the state, yet the fret has been clearly
established that he was not the unani
saoue choice and that there is a grow
ing tendency in the South to desert
the Lincoln agitator.
The Republicans of the Eighteenth
Senatorial district, composed of the
counties of Nance, Polk and Merrick,
will have two candidates to be voted
for at the' primary election in Septem
ber if E. L. King of Osceola, concludes
to enter the field for re-election. J.
H. Kemp, of Fullerton, has already
announced his candidacy, and his
friends will make a strong fight to
have him endorsed as the candidate.
Nebraska- Democrats should not
worry if the Denver convention fails
to adopt a plank favoring government
ownership of railways. Bryan will
accept the nomination if he can get
it and run on any kind of aplatform
the convention rams down his throat
He supported Parker and a gold stand
ard platform. in 1904, a free silver
platform in 1596 and a wild cat cur
rency platform a few years previous.
It makes no difference to Bryan what
the platform contains if he is the can
didate. The Democratic party is always
appealing to the workingmen for votes
and. sympathy on the oft-repeated
that it is the "poor man's
narty.
Poor men cannot afford to

Since the present
convened, the minority party, under
the leaderahipVltepreseatative Wil
liams, has been hostile to the business
interests of the country. Legislation,
has been hampered and needed meas
ures delayed. The Democratic mem
bers have been loud in insisting that
the Republicans 'were hostile to cer
tain measures advocated by the Pres
ident, Secretary Taft and other mem
bers of Boosevelt's official family.
Among the hills the Deasocratic mem
bers claimed the Bepublicans were
opposed to was the campaign contri
bution publicity bill. The Democratic
leader of the minority twitted Bepub
licans with being afraid to bring for
wari the measure fordiscussion. Now
note the insincerity of the Democrats.
Last Friday the publicity bill was
brought forward by the republicans
and every Democrat in the house
voted against, it Williams and his
followers didn't want the public to
know who contributed money to assist
in running a Democratic campaign.
They were opposed to the measure.
They know that publicity given to
campaign contributions would show to
the world that the importers of New
York City and the representatives of
Paris, London and Berlin houses, and
the sugar and other trusts would with
hold contributions from the campaign
fund of the Democratic party a
source from which the Democrats have
always secured money in presidential
campaigns.
The fact of the matter is the cam
paign managers of the Democratic
party in presidential and congressional
campaigns has never lacked for funds.
Two years ago in this congressional
district, the Democrats had two dol
lars to spend where the republicans
had one, and by the free use of money
came very near defeating Judge Boyd.
When a Democrat lifts up his hands
in righteous indignation at the bare
suggestion that his party uses money
in campaigns contributed by the rep
resentatives of special interests, put
him down as a rank hypocrite. The
fact that a man is a Democrat does not
mean that his political morals are
superior to a man claiming allegiance
to any other party. The most corrupt
political organization with which the
country was ever cursed is Tammany
Hall a Democratic organization
whose first chief was Aaron Burr a
man distrusted by Washington, Ham
ilton, Adams and Jefferson and
whose present chief is regarded as a
common scoundrel.

George W. Berge is going to make
trouble for the Democrats of Nebraska
if he is not endorsed as a candidate for
Governor at the primaries. Mr. Berge
is laboring .under the hallucination
that he has not been, fairly treated by
his party. Four years ago, when he
was a. candidate against 'Mickey, he
ran ahead of his ticket It was not so
much Serge's popularity that was res
ponsible for the vote he received as it
was Mickey's weakness; BufBergejs
too conceited to understand the reason
why so many Republican votes were
cast for him in that campaign. He
still imagines that he is entitled to
something, basing his claim on his
state-wide popularity among the vot
ers, and not only asks but demands the
nomination on the democratic ticket
for Governor this year. Opposed to
Berge is Banker Shallenbarger, who
was a candidate two years ago against
Governor Sheldon. Shallenbarger is a
man of ability who stands well in his
own party and has the respect of those
who do not agree with him politically.
He made a spectacular campaign and
caused the Bepublicans not a littla
uneasiness early in. the fight, but his
ability as an orator and his aggressive
manner of campaigning failed to win
votes from the opposition. Although
he was not what people generally style
An orator, yet the earnest appeals made
by George L: Sheldon for support,,
made more of an impression on the
voters than the oratory of Shallen
barger, and the latter was defeated.
Now Shallenbarger is a candidate for
renomination. Berge is not likely to
cut much of a figure in the contest.
Shallenbarger has the support of near
ly every leading democrat in the state,
and it is stated that his nomination
would be pleasing to Mr. Bryan, who
doubtless regards Shallenbarger an
abler man than Berge.- The latter has
never been regarded asa "good Indian"
by the leaders of the party, although
he is popular with that dement in the
Democratic party that formerly voted
the Populist ticket This element, so
it is alleged, Berge controls and can
nse at. his dictation, and as he is a sen
sative and conceited individual, who
overestimates his importance, popu
larity and influence, he is not likely to
submit gracefully to defeat at the pri
maries. However, it does not make
the slightest difference to Republicans
which one of the aspirants is endors
ed at the primaries. Governor rshel
don will be renominated ami elected.

A LEAF FROM THE PAST.
How John C. Calhoun Wai Interrupted While
Writing a Plan For the Dinwlution of
The American Union.
The following article, taken from
George Lippard'a paper, The Qaaker
City, published In Philadelphia, was
written by the Washington correspond
ent of that paper tfty-eight years ago.
Washington, D. O, Jan. 12, 1850.
The other morning, at the breakfast
table, our friend, the Hon. John C.
Calhoun, seemed very much troubled
And out of spirits. You know he is al
together a venerable man, with a hard,
stern, Scotch-Irish face, softened in its
expression around the mouth by a sort
of aad smile, which wins the hearts of
all who converse with him. His hair
is snow-white. He is tall, thin, and
angular. He reminds you very much
of Old Hickory. That he is honest, no
doubts; he has sacrificed to his Fatal
ism the Brightest hopes of political ad
vancement has offered up on the
shrine of that iron Necessity which he
worships, all that can excite ambition
even the presidency of the United
'-orv. Th. other .n..
ing, at the breakfast table, where I, an
unobserved spectator, happened to be
present, Calhoun was observed to gaze
frequently at his right hand, and brush
it with his left, in a nervous and hur
ried manner. He did this so often
that it excited attention. At length
one of the persons composing the
breakfast party his name I think is
Toombs, and he is a member of Con
gress from Georgia took upon him
self to ask the occasion of Mr. Cal
houn's disquietude.
"Does your hand pain you?" he
asked.
To this Calhoun replied in rather a
flurried manner "Pshaw! It is no
thing. Only a dream, which ' I had
last night, and which makes me see
perpetually a large black spot like an
ink blotch upon the back of my right
hand. An optical delusion, I suppose."
Of course these words excited the
curiosity of the company, but no one
ventured to beg the details of this
singular dream, until Toombs asked
quietly
"What was your dreamlike? I'm
not very superstitious about dreams;
but sometimes they hav a good deal
of truth in them."
"But this was such a peculiarly
absurd dream," mid Mr. Calhoun,
again brushing the back of his right
hand "however, if it does not too
much intrude upon the time of our
friends, I will relate it"
Of course, the company were profuse
in their expressions of Anxiety to know
All About the dream. In his singular
ly sweet voice, Mr. Calhoun related it:
"At a late hour last night, as I was
sitting in my room, engaged in writ
ing, I was astonished by the entrance
of A visitor who entered, and withouta
word, took a seat opposite me at my
table.- This surprised me, as I had
given particular orders to my servant,
that I should on no Account be dis
turbed. The manner in which the
intruder, so perfectly self-possessed,
taking his seat opposite me, without a
word, as though my room, and all
within it, belonged to him, excited in
me as much surprise as indignation.
As I raised my head to look into his
features, over the top of my shaded
lamp, I discovered that he was wrap
ped in a thin cloak, which effectually
concealed his face and features from
my view. And as I raised my head
he spoke
"What are you writing, Senator

recently printed, says that this is a
"godly but immoral age," and cites
the outcry against the removal of "In

from South Carolina?" he said.
I did not think of his impertinence
at first, but answered him involun
tarily "lam writing apian, for the Dis
solution of the American Union, (you
know, gentlemen, thntl Am expected
to produce a plan of Dissolution, in the
event of certain contingencies!"
To this the intruder replied in the
coolest possible manner--'
"Senator from South Carolina, will
you allow me to look at your hand,
your right hand?"
"He arose, the cloak fell and I be
held his face. Gentlemen, the sight
of that face struck me like a thunder
clAp. It was the face of a dead man,
whom extraordinary events had called
back to life. The features were those
of George Washington; yes, gentle
men, the intruder was none other than
George Washington. He was dressed
in the Revolutionary costume, such aa
you see preserved in the Patent
Office-"
Here Mr. Calhoun paused, appar
ently much agitated. His agitation, I
need not tell yon, was shared by the
company. Toombs at length broke
the embarrassing pause. "Well, well,
what was the issue of this scene?" Mr.
Calhoun resumed:
"This intruder, I have said, rose and
asked to look at my right hand. As
though I had not the power to refuse,
I extended it The truth is, I felt a
strange chill pervade me at his touch;
he grasped it and held it near the light,
thus affording me full time to examine
every feature of his face. It was the
face of Washington. Gentlemen, I
shudder as I beheld the horribly dead
alive look of that visage. After hold
ing my hand for a moment he looked
at me steadily, and said in a quiet way-
"And with this right hand, Senator
from South Carolina, you would sign
your name to a paper, declaring' the
Union dissolved?"
"I answered in the affirmative.
'Yes!' said I, 'ifa certain contingency
arises, I will sign my name to the De
claration of Dissolution." But at that
moment, a black blotch appeared on
the back ef my hand, an inky blotch,
which I seem, to see even now. What.is
that?' cried I, 'Alarmed 'I know not
why, at the blotch upon my hand.
"That" said He, dropping my hand,
'that is the mark by which Benedict
Arnold is known in the next world.'
"He mid no more, gentlemen, but
drew from beneath his cloak an object
which he placed upon the tableplaced
it upon the very paper upon which I
was writing. That object gentlemen,
was a skeletion.
"There," said He, 'there are the
bones of Isaac Hayne, who was hung
in Charleston by the British. He gave
his life, in order to establish the Union.
When you put your name to a De
clartion of Dissolution, why ypu may
as well have the bones of Isaac Hayne
before you. He was a South Caro
linian, and so are yon! But there was
no blotch upon his right hand '
"With these words the intruder left
the room. I started back from the
contract with the dead man's bones
and awoke. Overworn by labor, I
had fallen asleep and been dreaming.
Was it riot a singular dream?"
All the company answered in the
affirmative. Toombs muttered, "sin
gular, very singular!" at the same
time looking rather curiously at the
back of his right hand and Mr. Cal
houn, placing his head between his
hands, seemed buried in thought
godliness, is growing fainter as the
world marches on to its destiny. The
people of today are better than the
human beings that lived a thousand
years ago. A thousand years hence
the men who irihnbit the earth will
have advanced in true Godliness to a
degree far beyond the present age.
Don't become discouraged at the dark
forebodings of Professor Zueblin. In
tellectual, moral and commercial de
velopment will continue to expand.
We are living in the most important
and intellectually progressive period
of human history. Within less than
a hundred years inventions and dis
coveries have been made which have
brought the people closer together
and raised the standard of morality
throughout the world.

When James G. Blaine sent his

1889 he was not much applauded.

that the delegates from the southern
republics had was called expensive

The public has been long-suffering
and gullible in the matter of quacks
and quackery. This seems a little
strange in view of the value of life,
and the fact that a reputable physican
charges no more, often not as much,
as the doctor who has gained license
to practice by buying a diploma from
some of the worthless institutions
which sell sheepskin by the yard. The
plumber who hasn't faithfully served
his required apprenticeship at the
trade, is sure to find himself out of a
job, and there is no demand, for the
carpenter who cannot build a house.
The lawyer who knows no law must
resort to politics or other doubtful
means of self-support, as his advice is
not valued by parties engaged in legal
disputes. But in the practice of med
icine, the most important profession, it
has been possible for doctors who have
gained their knowledge of surgery
and medicine from a butcher shop and
a dye-works, to grow rich in their
chosen calling. This has been expen
sive to the public in life, health" and
money, there is coming a graduar
awakening, The quack has also been
a drawback to the skilled aid legiti
mate of the medical profession, and
they are likely to be the ones most
potential in relegating the quack to
history.
At a recent meeting of the Council
on Medical Education of the American
Medical Society in Chicago, the matter
was discussed At length, And more
rigid theoretical examinations, as well
as additional practical tests were urged
as a means of barring the ignorant
and incompetent An investigation
ofw called medical schools which
grant diplomas to short term students
was also recommended. One doctor
told of a "dipolma mill" in New Jer
sey which guaranteed to fit students to
pass the state examinations in six
months. It developed afterward that
one of these students, during the state
examination, declared the average
dose of tincture of opium to be from
one-half to two ounces, and also wrote
that when examining for the detection
of poison: "Iluk in hees mouth and 1
smel his breth."
Of course these recommendations
on the pnrt of the doctors Are made
from selfish motives, but putting the
quack out of business means more to
the public than than to the doctors;
money is something, but health is a
more important consideration. Here
is a uaefuLopportuhity to the legisla
tors who, are always in search of some
thing to reform. Atchison Globe.

SOME ROYAL BOLES
KINGS AND QUEENS WHO
WITHOUT THRONES.-
ARE
Probably Moat Picturesque ef Them
- All la Dam Carlos, Wh Aseerte
His Right to Rule in
Spain.
France has a goodly crop of royal
exiles and pretenders to the throne.
At Farnbdrough lives the ex-Empress
Eugenie, a pathetic figure, reminding
one very forcibly of the "tragedy of
kings." First, in 1870, came the over
throw of her husband. Napoleon III.,
and her flight to England. Worse fol
lowed la the death of her husband
and son, and to-day this unhappy royal
exile, one of the loneliest and most
touching in all Europe, quietly awaits
the great call.
Withltf a couple of hours' railway
Journey of Farnborough, viz.. at Eves
ham, In Worcestershire, lives another
French royal exile, the Due d'Orleans,
chief claimant to the throne of France,
whose sister, Princess Louise of
France, was recently married to
Prince Charles of Bourbon, whose
sister escaped miraculously with her
life at Lisbon. The duke's great
grandfather was King Louis Philippe,
the last of the line to reign in France,
who signed an act of abdication in
favor of his grandson, the Comte de
Paris, father of the present Due d Or
leans. How the revolution changed France
from a monarchy to a republic every
schoolboy knows, and not only is the
duke thus prevented from wearing a
crown, but by the expulsion act of
1880 he Is made liable to arrest and
punishment if he sets his foot in
France. This act forbids the soil of
that country to the direct heirs of
families which have reigned.
For this reason Prince Victor Na
poleon, who claims the Bonapartist
succession and is styled Napoleon IV.
by his followers, resides in Brussels.
Prince Victor's father was cousin to
Napoleon III., husband of the ex-Empress
Eugenie. Napoleon III. died in
1873; his only son, the prince im
perial, was killed in the Zulu cam
paign of 1879, and thus Joseph Charles
Paul Bonaparte, father of Prince Vic
tor, held the position of head of the
house of Bonaparte, and his son be
came heir of the Bonapartist hopes.
But the act of 1886 exiled them both
as' pretenders to the throne. Prince
Victor, however his father died in
1891 still hopes to reign in the coun
try of his birth, and reminds his par
tisans at Intervals of this ambition
by sending them signed photographs
of himself.
And then there is the most pictur
esque of all claimants to the throne
of France Dom Carlos, duke of Mad
rid, who considers that by strict right
of heredity he should also be king of
Spain. He claims to be Carlos VII.,
the rightful king of Spain and the In
dies, by virtue of his descent from
Dom Carlos, brother of King Ferdi
nand VII. of Spain (who died in 1833).
and also claims to be King Carlos XI.
of France and Navarre, since the
death of -the Comte de Chambord in
1883, when the elder line of the house
of Bourbon became extinct. On ac
count of the latter claim he has been
expelled from France, and of late
years has not pursued his claim to
the throne of Spain quite so actively
as he did in the 70's, when, after the
strenuous campaign, the government
managed to dislodge his adherents
from their strongholds in the north of
the country. Like the Due d'Orleans,
Dom Carlos is very rich, and it is said
that he hopes, through his son, -Dom
Jaime, who is an officer in the Rus
sian army, to yet gain those royal
rights which are said to belong to his
family.
In Paris lives Queen Natalie of Ser-
via, mother of the murdered King
Alexander, who, after her divorce
from King Milan, took up her resi
dence in the French capital; while
near by lives Prince Guy de Lusig
nan, who claims to be king of Arme
nia, Cyprus and Jerusalem. He
traces his descent from the famous
knight, Guy de Lusignan, who became
king of Jerusalem In 1186. There Is
little likelihood of the prince "coming
into his own," but in the meantime
he has designed two attractive decor
ations., the Order of Mount Sinai, and
