The Beatrice Express haa lately bad
a sadden and Yiotenl attack of the fav
orite sea ferer. Atleaat tkat'a what tke
Time (Beatrice) calks it Ike latter
paper aaya: "Ex-Senator Paddock may
be able to Merest tke delegation from
Nebraska from voting for McKialey and
eventually turn it over to Morton, bat
it will sot be dose without one of tke
bitterest ng kts ever waged in Nebraska.
Tke people of this country know wkat
tke want aad tkat they will have it, bo
difference what tke bosses may threat
en.' The Wakoo Wasp recites tke sad
story of as old man wko moved to Ne
braska is tke seventies and by bis own
toil became tke proud porsesor of
eighty acres of dark sandy loam, aad
who k bow a wanderer up and down
the earth wltk bo place to lay his head.
It wasn't crop failure. The Wasp says:
"One bright spring morning when he
was feeling very generous toward all
mankind he deeded tke old homestead
away to a beautiful but ungratful
daughter, who has since studiously
avoided to do anything that would
add joy and comfort to declining yeprs.
This is only a recital of an old story
with the moral omitted, which may be
had on application.
Much talk is being indulged in by
soae newspapers and politicians on the
question of whether Nebraska will be
for McKialey or Maaderson at St. Louis,
aad some predictions arc made of a
warm fight at the state convention. The
Reporter still believes that the state is
for McKialey, and ia equally confident
that any delegate who may be elected
will be ready and willing to honor Gen.
Maaderson in any way that may be pos
sible With such a condition of affairs,
we do sot believe that much of a fight
will take place at the state convention.
Seward Reporter.
"No matter how small the hole hap
pens to be. it is never too small for a
Bryan pop to crawl through, and bob up
serenely on the other side, still crying
calamity," says the Norfolk News apro
pos of Mr. Bryan's prediction at Du
buque tkat tke government popular
loan would be a failure, and tha subse
quent statement that the "bids would
have amounted to twice as much as
they did if tke country was enjoying the
benefits of 16 to 1 free coinage."
"It will not be many months ere Tim
Sedgwick will be elected secretary of
state," says the Kearney Democrat.
"Then his otherwise humble spirit will
grow jroud and the famcus sculptors
will go to Lincoln and carve his bust in
Italian marble, but remember, Tim, and
is that proud moment of your life let it
bumble your spirit, that, when a mere
child you laid the beginning of a prom
ising life by cutting your own teeth."
The attorneys in Lincoln are regular
blood suckers. The Firth Graphic says
so. lbe editor of the Graphic is J. B.
Gentry and he UBed to live in Lincoln.
So be ought to know. "Two of them
(the attorneys) who were appointed to
defend murderer Bantrs put in a claim
of t250 each. The negro pleaded
guilty without a trial. Judge Cornish
allowed each f 175, which is exorbitant
for a few hours work. The county com
missioners should cut it down to $25
each. It is trying to collect money under
false pretenses.'
STAN5 PRIDE
What One Editor Says of
Mandersor Boom.
the
The very small per cent of republicans
of this state who favor Maaderson
rather than McKinley, say the other
large per cent, probably 90, who are for
McKialey rather than any other man,
mast not make a fight as it may hurt
the party, says the Sterling Sun. It is
a clear case of the tail trying to wag the
dog and if they will just hold their tail
still, tke dog will be all right and there
wilt be no fight; otherwise there will be
a fight to n finish. The people of this
country are tired of so much monkey
work. They were robbed of Blaine by
trickery ef tke politicians and McKialey
comes nearer filling bis place in tke
bsarto ef tke American people, than any
other man. Nebraska republicans are
0 per eent for McKinley, aad every man
knows it, yet some of tkese fellows, on a
cry ef "state pride," propose to thwart
tke will of the people; but it can not and
will not be done. Manderson has no
more show of being nominated presi
dent than a snow ball has of existence
in hades. It is a scheme of the other
fellows, just as the Sun said some weeks
ago, to get up as many "state pride" fel
lows over the country as possible, Year
McKinley out, and then let some of the
eastern ducks slip in. They are good
men, but they should tote fair and let
the popular will of the people be ex
pressed once. If they do not see fit to
consent, it will be done anyway. The
McKinley men will begin at the primar
ies and send McKinley men to every
convention until the fellows who can be
relied upon are elected for the St. Louis
convention; and right now is a good
time to begin, to sea the work in hand.
The other fellows are at work. The pride
of the republicans of this state would
be the nomination of McKinley for
president

HE PEVIEW OF
REVIEWS, as its
name implies, gives b
readable form the best
that appears in the other
great magazines all over
the world, generally on the same date that they
are published. With the recent extraordinary
increase of worthy periodicals, these careful
reviews, summaries, and
quotations, giving the
gist of periodical litera
ture, are alone worth
the subscription price.
Aside from these departments, the editorial
and contributed features of the Review of Reviews are themselves
equal in extent to a magazine. " The Editor's "Progress of the World" is
an invaluable chronicle of the happenings of the thirty days just past,
with pictures on every page of the men and
women who have made the history of the momh.
Tte Littruy World says: "We are deeply
impressed from month to month with the value
of the 'Review of Reviews, which is a sort
of Eiffel Tower for the survey of the whole
field of periodical literature. And yet it has a mind and voice of its
own, and speaks out with decision and sense on all puolic topics of
the hour. It is a singular combination of the monthly magazine and
the daily newspaper. It is daily in its freshness;
it is monthly in its method. It is the world
