Senator Thurston tells a cisco interviewer that Harrison as a presidential eandidate is entively out of the question. Mr. Thurston has posed as a political prophet with regard to Mr. Harrison before, but not always with n ible succeess, Tx-Congressman Bryan has been_re lieved of responsibility for the editdrial policy of his newspaper on city and county aftairs.

Had the secrotary exercised ordinary common sense when the certificates of nomina- tion we presented to him all this litigation might have been avolded. The emperor of Japan has considered it incumbent upon him to issue an edict forbidding his subjects from visiting Corea without special permission. From what we read of the poverty of Corea and its inhabitants, it is almost beyond comprehension why any ediet should e ne ¥ to keep visitors out of that country. o8N of the federal government the Leland Stanford estate is to be taken to the ue court on appeal. Tt Is a suit that ought to have been brought years ago and the people will not be satistied until their claim against the looters of the Central Pa- cific Is to the very highest tribunal in the land. The against suit sup pressed Had it not heen for the unholy alli ance made between Scott and Dickin son, Judges Ambrose and Blair would have been renominated. That fact was wparent on the day of the convention. Dickinson voted the Burt county dele ites ke cattle, but he cannot con- trol even a majority of the free and un trammeled eleet of Burt, who have the heartiest_contempt_for Great Scott, According to the thrifty firm of Rus sell, Chinrehill and Company, state sup ply agents, the responsibility for the failure of the state to get more money out of the sublessees of prison labor rests entively with Governor Holecomb, If anything can be done to shift the blame for the penitentiary scandals from the shoulders of Russell and his gang upon some one else we may be sure the attempt will be made. The outlook is said to be bright the fmmediate resumption of operations by the company that lms hecome the cossor 1o the lnte Whisky trust, This means that the loeal plant of the late trust onght ened up. A resumption of active work at the Omaha distillery would give men cmployment id add to the value of our products, The money of the trust cannot be dis. tributed here too early or too often. According to the veracious finance committee of the city council The Be gave publicity to the Coulter embezzle ment within an hour after it had come within the knowledge of the committee According the World-Herald, which stands in with the committee and the gang, that paper had been apprised of Coulter's stealings from the inside mor than a week before, and b this informa ) wtit of committee and in the ends of Whom are we to beliey or Its orgun? % for to be soon the justice, , the committee Boe | FARMERS AND SILVER e action e national congroess of farmers at Atlanta, fn rejecting by e overwhelml jorfity a resolution silver at a as show « e a favoring the e 16 1001 nost the o free sily i of et s from nearly all 1 they are intelligent, prac In the vote motion in colnage of ratio of ing that v 1hle composed thiy teal men I8 hnportan thie ey of representative not favor congress is 1o m stites | taver of the existing ratio it is noted | that the east | st sodidly th north and sonth voted ngainst it the 1 stiver st of conrse, The resolution as reported ntion by the regular commit declared in favor of {an duternational congress of all nations | willing 1o unite in the equal use of both wold and silyer This 4 u tos, sup- ‘on of a representative body the country it to effect 0t iy m farmers of nerally good fcultural producers sl believe that they nld way be benefited by [ jof silver.

He is also a distinguished democratie leader. His utterances ave, therefore, of more than ordinary significance. They not only supply argument to his party, but have welght with others who to Nigh authority for opinions regarding current events. A man in such position should be eareful not to say anything in a prepaved public address calenlated to mislead the public mind. In his speech before the Boston Re form club Se 3 rlisle erted that the chief cause of the panic and depression of the past two yoars wi the popular appr ision that the gov- ernment might be unable to continue the polie$ of redeeming its obligations in gold. e admitted that there doubtiess other causes for tinancial business disturbance, but the principal one was the popular fear that-the pledge of the government to redeem its « gations In gold could not be kept. As an extreme tarift veforwer, who is in full accord with the declaration of the last democratic national piatform against protection and embodied - the tariff hill tha first sedd the house of representatives, it perhaps natural that Mr. Carlislo should to as far as possible re lieve the policy of his party from re- sponsibility for panic and depression. But every fair-minded wan will admit that when the democratic party came into power there was no fear that the nment would fail to redeemn obligations in g industrial stagnation had begun. toms of the coming depression fested themselves almost immediately following the general election of 1802 and the only explanation then given was the fear excited by the avowed pur- pose of the democratic party to destr protection to American industrics, the ability of the government to coutinue paying its obligations in gold not heing in question at all. It was the thre ened war upon the long ablished economic policy of the countr which the democratic party was in a position to effectively prosecute, that cansed to elose mills and fac nd send hundreds of thousands of people into idleness, bringing about @ loss to the country, as Mr. Carlisle ad mits, of thousands of millions of dol lars. Only when the free trade element of the democ was defeated in its attempt to destroy protection and some thing of that policy was preserved did a reaction from depression begin, and not until after the election of a repub lican congress was there movement toward the industrinl activit That the Americ the past two years felt there was possibility of the government heing ble to maintain gold payments, SUW treasury deficits, aecumu ing and the gold reserve disappearing, Is true, but it was not this that caused prostration of business. That came be- fore there was a donbt anywhere or an apprehension regardi the mainte nance of gold payments by the goyern- ment—starting, indeed, long before there was any impairment of the gold reserve which could induce or justify distrust. Secretary Carlisle is not can- did when he undertakes to lay else- where than upon the democratic tariff policy, as proclaimed by the national | platform of the party and embodied in | the tariff bill framed by the house ways and weans commitiee agreeably to the | views of the administration, the re sponsibility for the calumitons depres | sion that prevailed more than two ye land from which the countr not | yet tully recovered, but be s in accord RTION. reCo; re, look seek ZOVY its mp- a general resumption of n ped rice of those | commoditios | with the policy | 10, and yet alveady the | mani- | e have during | TTH | with hie party, which s ev | trying to persunde the people that their bittor expe has not been due the demoe it upon profec tion, But even so minent a Ity [ leader as Mr. Carliste will fail to con {vinee people conversant with the his tory of the last three years that this is roe, vwhere | THWARTING THE ENDS OF The finance committes b has today discovered has placed before his honor t gal department, which calls for the apprehension ot J.

THE COUNTY CLERKSHIT The office of county clerk is o position great responsibility. This is es pecially true in Douglas county, the most populous and wealthy county in Nebraska. The office require not merely elerical capacity, but also execn tive ability of a high order. The clerk of Douglas county is more than a re- corder of the procecdings of the county board and custodian of ballot hoxes, He is practically the comptroller for the county and keeps check upon the dis. bursements for every department of the county’'s business, which is growing in proportions from year to year. In the present campaign the race for the county clerkship lies between Mel- ville Redfield and O, . Campbell. In making his cho) between these candi- datesy every conscientious voter who favors good government and an eco- nomical administration of county cannot hesitate to ¢ his vote for Mr. { Campbell, the nominee of the Citizens' league, and also of the county democ- fairs Melville Redfield is the present deputy county clerk. He has fair elerieal abil ity, but is utterly lacking in executive capacity, He Is moreover a man who imagines it to be his mission to attend to everybody's business except that for which he is cmployed. Since he has been in the county clerk’s office he has meddled and tampered with the of every departinent of city and county wernment. Melville Redfield is one of the most active leaders of the howling dervish faction of the P Als, an agitator and a schemer. He is the intimate a fate of George Stryker and Israel Frank, and was justromental i getting them appointed as county poor farm super intendent and city meat Inspector r spectively, and in keeping them in the I places.
