So many people in Nebiaska know noth
Ing about the ponitontiaiy ling and the
Moslioi contiact tint it may be well to
tecall a little histoij. The oilgm.il
ponitcntl.ny building contiaitor and
lessee , Iloss Stout , had nji to 1SS" been
a dcmoiali/ing factor in Xcbiaska
politics. CoiHcntioiis , leglslatuies and
.state otllccrs had been ionuptl.\ manipu
lated in his inteiest and a poiloct reign
of boodleilsm bad been In.ingiuated.
Against tills coiinpting agency Tlie Hec
was auayed lioni its Incejition. In 1SS > 7
Charleq W. Mosher , then ptesldent of
the Capital National bank , became tlie
assignee of Stout's penitentiary con
tract. Up to that time Mosher had
not been prominent in politics , and
his icputation as a business man
was good. The change fiom St.iut to
Moslior was icgaided as a Mop in the
dliectlon of cleaner politics and bcttei
go\eminent. Hut when Moslior asked
the legislating of 1SST to extend the
contiact , the scheme found no sujipoit
at the hands ot The Hoe. Oa the con-
tiaiy , the editor ol The Hoe person illy
in god nieinbeis of the Douglas del"gi-
tlon , among _ them Attorney Ceneial

And yet the Woild-IIeiald , which became -

after he had pleaded guilty and had
received a penitentiary sentence , hits
tlie Insolence to Insinuate thai in some
way Moshor had a claim to the favor of
Thi > HPO. Had Moslior ever diiectly 01
Indliectly contiUnited a dollar or been
asked to contribute a dollar he would
coitaliily have made the charge specific
thiough the scmiilous letters which he
published in the Ounlia fence after The
Hoe's exposure of the scandals connected
with his nightly excursions fiom the
Douglas county jail.
The question naliiially suggests Itself ,
Why did the rallio.ul pig iu.sh to the
lescno of Moslior while he was In Jail ,
and why did It give aid- and comfoit to
the olllcoLS who , \iolatlon ol law , al
lowed a convict to inn at huge In gam
bling houses and dlsonleily icsoits ?
Did Moshor have In his possession
niomnianduin slips such as wcie found
In the city tteasurct's diawor after
Holln had been ancsted ?

As the Immigration for the fiscal year

Such aie the contrasting financial re

The Omaha Hee , icprlntlng an article
from the Times , classifies this pnpor as
"democratic" This is an eiror which others
nmong our esteemed contemporaries some
times commit The Times Is not a demn-

Independent paper , prepared to support wliat-

Iutel > to wear the joke of an ) party , or
to support anj man 01 any measure on simply
party grounds and for party lensons Merit
Is the Times' real test In the case of every
cnn o or candidate As for being a demo
cratic paper the Times really would not know
how to be one even though It desired to
do so Is there n national democratic paity at
all9 Is there a party of that name which rep
resents today nn } principle that stands for
consistency nnd Intelligent conviction and
purpose that works for pi ogress or mouses
appeals tit the national prldo' In there a
riomociitlc party that Is united on any ques
tion ot federal policy , or an ) Issue upon
which It can hope to conduct an aggressive
campaign , or icpresents an Idea with which
It cnn hope to arou-o the national Imagina
tion and sentiment ? The time may have
been when democracy was Snonymons with
rour.age. Intelligent patriotism and a jealous
logard for the honor ot the republic , but the
democratic p irty of the present is simply on
Inglorious survival of n nobler day in our
political life , n melancholy example of moral
decadence and political adversity , to call It
by no harsher name No , the Times Is not
a democ-atic paper , in the sense of being
an organ of the democratic party.
