POINTS IN PObITICS

the question, Will Tom Majors really be
a candidate for governor again? is
pretty sure to be asked. have heard
of great many things Mr.. Majors is
reported to have said in answer to this
query; but l nave yet to hear that he
has made definite, positive. uneqLiv-
ocal statement that he will not be a
candidate. Mr.. Majors. whatever else
may be said Of him, is fairly endowed
with intelligence, and it is difficult to
credit him with the ambition he is still
supposed to entertain. 1t is doubtful il
there is any further considerable
political honor in store for Mr.. Majors.
His most sanguine admirers cannot see
how he could possibly be nominated for
governor again or elected. / doubt il
Walt Seeley thinks it would be profita-
bic for him to again be a candidate.
Mr.. Majors has had political oppor-
tunities such as come to but few men.
He has in him many elements OF strength
and popularity. But he has for years
followed course no man can pursue
and retain the respect of the public.
Ho has brought discredit upon himself
and the republican party by his vile
connections and associations, and made
it impossible for him to receive the
tribute which certain of his pei sonal
qualities draw forth. Mr.. Majors
fealty to the corporations and the
peculiar nature of many of his public
acts leave much to be answered for, and
establish the certainty and permanency
of the desuetude into which he has
fallen. 1t would be grave mistake to
disturb the damp corridors Of political
death to extract once more and rehabil-
itate in the garments Of the living
this ghost Of promising past-this
apparition forced into the tomb by his
own errors and by Walt Seeley and the
like. Nothing would be gained by such
an act. The apparition would be pro-
jected back into the haunts of erstwhile
with force and rapidity decidedly
prejudicial to the final sleep, and the
party would in no wise be benefited by
the sepulchral visitation. The depart
ed, in spirit and flesh, have had their
little say in the game of life, have ap-
peared on the stage and made a little
comedy or little tragedy or little
melodrama as the case may be and
shuffied off into the wings, and there is
no necessity or desirability of calling
them back. No encores from the dead
are needed while new performers are
anxiously waiting an opportunity to
make their first appearance. Tom
Majors in the heyday of his success had
trouble enough. His shade should be
allowed to rest in peace.
And McColl, that man of tongue-tied
mediocrity whom friends and claquers
vainly tried to raise to a position of
power! 1t may just as well be admitted
that this good citizen OF Nebraska is not
and never has been the man OF the day
or the hour to lead the hosts of a great
party. Mr.. McColl is a good, bluff,
commonplace man with no fitness for
gubernatorial duties, and while he has
kept pretty clean record. he has allow
ed himself to become an old story,
politically. The people do not want
either Majors or McColl. There have
been many times when they might have
chosen one or the other, but they passed
them by. Mr.. McColl is reconciled to
the situation.

Some surprise was occasioned by the
announcement in last weeks COURIER
that George Woods has under consider
alton the ACCESSIBILITY Of becoming a
candidate for the state senate next year.
The Information came from an authentic
source. Mr.. Woods will not be in a
hurry about deciding, but the fact that
his thoughts are in this direction is
doubtless interesting to Senator Wright.
Now that both democratic state con-
ventions have been held and the
attendant excitement has subsidized a
fairly intelligent idea Of the democratic
situation in Nebraska may be formed.
The free silver party has the state or
ganization and the largest following.
The straight democrats have the nation
al committeeman and direct connection
With the administration. Neither wing
has any hope Of success in the way Of
securing offices this fall. The opinion
was general that with Bryan and the
state machine back Of it the free silver
party would maks much more formid-
able showing than the"straights dubbed
by Z. j. Smyth's party the "bolters."
The facts are that the most persistent
drumming failed to make the Omaha
convention Of Bryanites anything more
than disorganized mass meeting. The
attendance OF accredited delegates was
small. mnch smaller than the attend
ance at the convention held in this city
last week, and there was little attempt
to do things decently and in order.
The convention was disappointment
to its promoters and a surprise to the
public. Delegates to the administra.
ton convention were furnished trans
portation by lobe Castor, but they
were compelled to pay for all other ex.
penses. There was no money in the
trip to Lincoln. Just two things made
the convention possible desire to OBJ
tain recognition from the national dem
ocratic convention next year and the
allegiance which every true democrat
has for the old democratic party. There
were over 500 regular delegates present,
and it was like an old time democratic
state convention. There was more
earnestness. more enthusiasm, than at
the Omaha convention.
What is the reason for this change in
the democratic situation? Was it the
rterogression of the free silver move
ment that caused the little body of
men, considerably less than 100, that
withdrew from the state convention in
Omaha a year ago and held 'bolting"
convention in the Paxton hotel, to in
crease in number and influence until at
last weeks convention over 500 men
were gathered together in delegate
assembly? Hardly. Free silver is man
ifestly on the down grade in both parties
in this state. But when you get right
down to it the rank and file of the dem
ocratic party doesn't bother itself about
free silver or any other QUESTION. This
rank and file is loyal, not so much to
any principle or set Of principles, as to
the old party itself, and it is really this
old party feeling that is causing the
democrats to get together again under
the party banner. A real democrat is
always democrat and when those of
the party who have followed Mr.. Bryan
and his colleagues over the border line
into populism, once stop to think the
matter over they are impelled to get
back again into the fold The real dam
