POTTER & EASTERDAY.

The statement of Postmaster
General Wanamaker regarding his
connection with the collapsed Key
stone bank Of Philadelphia will be
satisfactory to all fair minded men.
His relations with that institution
were solely as a business man,
and he states that he knew moth
ing of its condition except from
published reports, and had abso-
slutely nothing to do with the
course of the government authori-
ties regarding the institution. The
postmaster generals statement is
unequivocal in its statements, and
it is to be hoped those who have
endeavored to connect him discred-
itably with the defunct bank will
have the sense of fairness and
justice to acquit him of any such
accusation.-Bee.

The wise man, the upright man,
the patriotic man, the lover of his
country, will seek to break down
the i'll feeling that at all times
prevails to a more or less extent
between town and country people,
instead of doing everything in his
power to aggravate it. Both town
and country are necessary for the
well being and prosperity of all
the people, and no possible good
can grow out of the antipathy that
some men seem to take delight in
inculcating.-Alma Times.

PERHAPS there has never been
a time in the history of the world
when the laboring classes were en-
gagged in a more general and
heroic effort to ease the CALLING
bonds of arragant and powerful
capital. Doubtless, too, the re-
cords of earth mention no epoch
which there has been such stipend
GUS and menacing a centralization
of power and money has taken
place as in the past twenty five
years of our national life. It is
natural for The TRIBUNE to sym
pathize with every proper effort
for the improvement and better
ment of the political, the social, or
the financial condition of the in
dustrial classes. No man is truly
free who will willingly accept the
oppressor's yoke. 1t is meet that
along this line a special effort
should be directed. The rich are
In need of little assistance. Their
paths lead to success. Money buys
social standing. Opens doors to
political preferment. Clearly the
laboring classes must make con-
tention for their recognition along
the many avenues of life which
are wide open to the more favored
wealthy of earth.

Am UPRIGHT JUDGE.

THERE is some sp culatio1
among the politicians in relation
to who will be chosen to succeed
Judge Cochran in this district. The
Advocate is in favor of electing in
dependents to offices of honor.
trust and profit, as a general rule,
and believes it but voices the senti-
ments of large majority of the
voters of Gosper county, by ex-
pressing a desire for the reelection
of Judge Cochran. Why? For
the reason that Judge Cochran's s
decisions have in the main, been
rendered in a spirit Of fairness,
that poor men have no cause to
complain that an unjust Judge has
Disseminated in favor of wealth.
To-day corporations, banking con-
Germs and money sharks are cry
ing-away with him, he is not the
man we want. Judge Hamer has
taken manly stand in refusing to
confirm the sale in foreclosure of
real estate where it has not
brought two-thirds of it's value.
Judge Cochran with less flourish
of trumpets has quietly nipped the
evil in the bud by refusing to is
sue a decree of sale where parties
are making their home on the
mortgaged premises. Of course
this has awakened the animosity
of the loan companies and their
agents-the banks-who are now
plotting to defeat Judge Cochran
and run in servile tool of mon
opoly. To the Independents we
say, that unless we can bring a
candidate of known ability before
the people; man Of experience in
matters judicial, man well versed
in law and having the confidence
of the people, that Judge Cochran
should be retained. The Judge
ship, although it may be conferred
by partisans, is not partisan Of
fee. Judges should have no poll
tics, no political favorites in their
decisions. We are under no otli-
cations, have made no pledges, to
Judge Cochran, or to anyone else,
but believing that judicial Office
should not be made partisan gift,
nor the subject of political barter
and sale, we simply express our
honest convictions in advance of
any campaign excitement.

4 FISH stony.

1t is our sad duty to announce the
appearance of one of the most colossal
lies of recent years. 1t comes from
Nebraska and is cold plain lie without
an extenuating circumstance. We re-
peat it only that we may denounce it
and the man who tells it. His name
is Thomas, and he is said to be an al
lance man with congressional aspira-
tions He would be very dangerous
man to have in congress. The story
which he tells is this He has farm
OH the Missouri river bottom, near Elk
Valley. A week ago the river began
to raise and he saw that his land would
all be submerged. He transferred his
family and ais" his stock and moveable
property to higher ground. Here be-
gins the lie, if, indeed, the farm, fami-
ly and property were not 6cticious.
There was on his farm, SO be says, ex-
actly two miles of barbed-wire fence.
1t was five-wire fence, and there were
thirty-two harbs to the rod, or a grand
total OF 1O3, 400 barbs. Yet this IN
dustrious liar and the other no less en-
terprising prevaricator, the hired man,
baited every one of these barbs with
small bit of meat They finished and
escaped to the bluffs Just as the water
came up. For twenty-six hours the
water remained five feet above the top
of the fence Then the river receded
and the hardened and disreputable man
Thomas went down and examined his
fence. He found, so he has the as
surance to say, fish hanging from ev-
cry barb except three, or 1897 in all.
There were pickerel, bass, pike, suckers
and many other varieties. They aver
aged ten pounds each in weight, giving
him the astonishing total of 1,O23,970
pounds of fresh fish. He discharged
the hired man because he had not pro-
perly baited the three barbs which fail
ed to catch any ish.-N. Y. Tribune.

Anna Pate has large cantankerous
grievance against her husband, Harvey
Pate, who is resident of Red Willow
county, and she believes herself to be a
much maligned and prosecuted woman.
She further asserts that she believes
the perquisities and immunities enjoy
ed by an unmarried woman far surpass
the privileges OF those yoked down in
married life and she, therefore, asks the
court to remedy her wrongs. In pc
tition filed this morning she alleges that
she was married to Harvey on Decem-
Der 2l, 1888, at McCook, Neb., sup
plementing this fact with the stcreotyp-
ed statement that she has always been
dutiful, obedient and chaste. But she
AYERS that Harvey has been cruel and
upwantonly deserted her, failing to pro-
vide her with the necessities Of life and
that he has harshly and cruelty charged
her with immoral conduct, and intimacy
with others than himself. To crown
all these indlgnities he has begun a suit
in Red Willow county against one Al.
Thompson, charging him with being Grim
inally intimate with the plaintiff and
having enticed her from her husbands s
home, thereby destroying his happiness
and peace of mind. This allegation
she brands as false and damnable and
asserts that it caused her such shame
and scandal in that community that she
was compelled to leave and take up
life in large city. She asks the court
to dissolve the marriage ties, restore
her to her maiden name, to compel
Harvey to pay into court enough to
prosecute the suit and to give her a
nice little sum as alimony.- World
