The Newberry freight bill of Ne
braska may have tendency to lower
freieet rates to the Hiils--Hot
Springs STAR.
Well, we'll! 1t will have tendency
to lower rates; that is good For years
the independent voters Of Nebraska
have strivcn for such measure and
only accomplished it through the reo.
ple's party in the late Legislature after
severe struggle in which republican
and democratic legislators bitterly
fought the bill Every effort in our
own legislature to lower passenger
and freight rates was promptly
squelched by our republican lcgisla.
ture.-Rapid City Union. /.
1t begins to look to us as though the
Union purposely falsifies whenever ii
attempts to laud its own party
Strange tina. if can not find anything
truthful and at the same time mct'o-
rious to say of the "peoples party.
Two years ago the Independents had a
big majority in both houses of the
legislature over all other parties bnt
no Newberry bill was heard of. This
year the republicans had a majority
above any other parry-and the New
berry bill became law.
Two years ago the South Dakota
Legislature was independent enough to
elect the q. s. senator--but scvery
effort to lower passenger and freight
rates was promptly squelcIed.
The accomplishment of the peo-
pies party is something wonderful to
contemplate. IL ~ Sans tell the
truth about what their party has done
to benefit the people where they hat
everything their own way, it viii oc
cupy but very little of their space
The time has passed when they car
successfully blow about what they will
do. They have already made history
Yet the STAR is not prepared to be
lieve that the Newberry bill was
good measure. We do not know wha
Its provisions are entirely, though i'll
tended, as we understand, 10 lowe
freight rates. The bill may be sue
cessful in that particular, but if nc
ports are true concerning the cheaper
ing of the service by the railroads, i
may not after all be acceptable 10 iii

The change made 10y the late lcgisa-
ture in the Australian ballot system is
not for the better. 1t is a step hack
ward but just such change as cor
rupters Of the ballot box desire The
very best feature of the Australian sys-
TEN was the mixture of names aud the
forcing Of the voter to forget party
and vote for men. Under the change
he can by one sispe cross vote a
straight ticket to save time. Rapid
City Union.
1t is something new to lis TO learn
that the independent party is con-
tending for men instead of principles
According to the argument above pre-
sented by the Union the Independents
last fall supported Gen. Weaver sim
ply because he was better man than
Grover Cleveland or BENZ. Harrison.
They didn't vote for principles! That
being the case of course they may be
wise in wishing the names all mixed
up, hoping to befuddle the voter into
putting cross before the name of an
occasional independent. But the re-
publican party stands for principle,
and good republicans always desire to
express their preferences in the SIM
plest and quickest manner possible.
They are now pleased aud satisfied
since they can do so by placing an \
before the party name instead of be
fore the name of every republican on
the ticket.
If the Union proposes to always in
sist that the Independent party nom-
mates better men than the other parties
why isn't it good plan to have them
all in a row instead of mixing them up
with ordinary rabble?

SILVER CERTIFICATES.

Advocates of free coinage of silver
make great mistake, says the Los An
les Times, when they denounce the use
of silver certificates. They ssem to
think that the issue of certificates is
what keeps silver dollars from circulat-
ing to great extent. The fact is that
nearly every administration, since the
rassage of the Bland act OF 1877, has
taken all proper means to increase the
circulation of silver dollars, but at no
time has the amount OF silver In cir
culation exceeded $4,000 900, while the
coined silver in the treasury vaults
amounts to upwards of $3.50, 100000. 1t
is vastly better to have silver circulate
in the form of certificates, nr treasury
notes, than to have it absolutely idle.
A silver certificate is just as good a
form of money as a gold certificate.
No one complains because gold cerii-
ficates, to the extent of over Sl0G 100000,
are in circulation, for the redemption
of which the treasury holds an equal
sum in gold coin. The people of the
United States, as a whole, make but a
sparing use of coin, preferriug paper
money, as mora convenient. And as
the wish of the people must govern in
these matters, it is entirely proper that
peper money should be issued, based
upon coin, whether gold or silver, de-
posted in the treasury, or upon gold or
silver bullion.
The fact is that the use of certifi-
Gates is the greatest help that silver
has had of late years. II silver could
rot in this way be got into circulation,
the people would have long since in
sisted on the stoppage of government
purchase of the white meta. The
idea of forcing the paople TO carry
silver coin, to a greater extent than
they want it, is altogether foolish. Nc
batter way could be adopted to create
popular feeling against silver, and to
its final demonetization, than to un-
dertake to force into the pockets Of the
people the ten thousand tons of silver
now in the treasury.

FOUR MURDER TRIALS.
Pima will Try Her Neighbors' Cases
and Her Own.

Four and probably five murder cases
are on the docket for Tucson this fall.
Two Of them are big affairs. The
TeW ksbery case, brought from Phoenix,
will require eighty to 100 witnesses, and
will last three weeks or month. The
date Of this case Will be set in Septem-
ber. 1t is not unlikely that IT will be
tke first to come up. The case is one of
a cattleman named Graham being fired
on from ambush. Graham made an
ante-mOrten statement that he was shot
from ambush while driving and saw
Tewksbury do ii. The matter was 10
the hands of Judge Baker as one OF the
attorneys, so a change of venue to Pima
was taken.
The Klbbey case will be renewed.
The prosecution allege that the most
hoped for in the next trial by the de-
feuse is to get ahung jury. Several hung
Jurles Is held to be IN favor of prisoner.
The Iud:an, Vicente, who is charged
with killing another Papago, Manuel,
while under mescal will be tried. Vicente
says he has no recollection of the
matter and knew nothing of it from
the time hewas drinking with Manuel
TIL he was arrested.
The Mexican duel with rocks matter,
st Greatervllle, may come to trial or
may not get past the grand jury. Ra-

ARIZONA EXHIBIT.
That Thirty Thousand Whore is
that Money and the Exhibit?

"You ought to see that Arizona ex-
bib t at the Worlds fair," said Mayor
Colo, who just returned from the east
this morning.
".No. It isn't worth the $4,000 that it
cost" he continued, "but it is worth
seeing as curiosity. Even that infant
territory Oklahoma beats it in cereals.
etc. Washington lays clear over il in
mineral display. New Mexico shows a
fine agricultural display.
"There is enought fruit and grain and
gold in Ar IONA 10 lave made line
showing at Chicago, but the showing is
not made. The cactus and the petri-
fed woods, both private enterprises, and
the Copper Queen comprise nearly the
whole exhibit. The petrif- d wood at
tracts more interest perhaps than any
one thing at the fair, but that isn't an
industry from which Arizona derives
her resources. 1t is shame that this
territory is so poorly represented!
Mayor Cole spoke also of the financial
situation in tie east. He says while
the trouble is general Colorado seems to
have the worst of it, That state is so
wholly dependent on the silver produc-
tion that relief must come through iegis-
lation.
Il am inclined to think" he said,
that this special session of congress
will not accomplish the unconditional
repeal of the Sherman act. II is hard
to guess just what will be dore.
There is no danger here except that
it will be quiet for while. The con-
servative and careful action of the
business men of Arizona speak much
for the successful result in tins terri
tory. Good times WILL come again sll
right. 1t is only a question OF waiting
little while" Herald.
