ANOTHER SENATOR CHOSEN.

The long struggle In Nebraska over
the election Of United States senator
eliminated yesterday In the choice OF
William V. Allen. He was formerly n
Republican but loft that party over two
years ago aud cas-, his politlca,
fortunes with the Peoples party, to
which he now belongs. 1t IL perhaps
aignifcsnt that tho Democrats In the
legislature all voted for him,as II shows
that his withdrawal from Re, ubiican-
Ism must have been unequivocsl, and
Viewed thus, thc election Is distinctly a
Republican loss even II II should not be
q Democratic gain.
There are now four states left In the
throes OF a senatorial deadloch--MoD.
tana, North Dakota, Washington and
Wyoming. Whatever they msy ulti.
matoly do, however. Will have hut
little practical effect on the political
status OF tno next Senate. which will
be certainly anti. Republican and al
most az certainly controlled by the
| Democrats.

DIsCRIMINAIlvg FREIGHT RATES.

II Is n matter Of public interest to
know why local manufacturers do
not compete In certain lines with i'm.
ported articles. In conversation, sew
eral Of these manufacturers hav,
ASSERTED that It Ia because they are
inluriouBly affected by an excessive
railway tariff.
In support Of this assertion they
ststc that whom the railways granted
reduced rates for certain classes Of mt =.
chsndise, the tariff classification was
30 arranged that an Increase Of rates
on raw material was the result.
Because Of this, local manu- 'actureIs
had to restrict themselves In certain
articles because these could be prod uceu
only at l0ss.
As an instance, one Of our most ex-
perienced foundrymen was approached
and asked the question, Scan you

paper, since which time many relics have
been offered him but he has gone out of

our merchants his army friend, when the
latter remarked: Perhaps you think

took paper out of his desk, IS history
of the battle of Gettysburg. which | Sc
cured the day after the battle" I'D like
to have that, said Mr.. Bllingsley. 'I'll
give you a half dollar for it," .'All right"
said the merchant, and the sale was made
On the way up to Wichita that evening
Mr.. Billingsley began looking over
his paper and turning it over
read: AT Winfield Opera House
june G. 1891" He was here yesterday and
positively refused to take his money back.
The merchant had fooled one of our own
citizens with the same prior TO this sale.
He was exhibiting the paper whom mid
die aged gentleman remarked: Il would
like TO read that paper some time" You
can have it now L you wish" replied the
merchant. The gentleman took the paper
home and sat up until midnight reading
il. Then he turned ii over and caugut the
opera house advertisement. Next MORN
