THE MASSES IN ENGLAND ARE FRIENDS
OF AMERICA.


AS America no longer has the same need
OF our toiling masses they perforce must
learn to have less need of America, Since
America accepts them very much as mat
ters of course, when she accepts them at
all, they naturally return the compli-
ment, The romance of their old rela-
tions has died out That romance notori-
ously led the Lancashire weavers to starve
during the cotton famine rather than
join in the infamous cry for intervention
10 the detriment of the Union. At that
time IL seemed to be John Bright against
a nation, but IL was nothing of the sort,
The great leader had the rank and file OF
the people with him, because the love
and reverence OF America WAS still fresh
in every heart. The ruling and infiuen-
tal minority wished to see the republic
divided, bot the nation was sound. Its
leader had only to appeal to a sentiment
which was still living force. The
weavers were but more shining and
more heroic example of the whole mass.
The working folk throughout the land
were sound for the Union, because they
knew that their bread was still buttered
on the American side aud when ali other
reasons failed, because they loved Ameri-
ca without knowing why. III they have
ceased to love IL, IL is not by any mems
because they cherish the contrary feeling
A thousand times no. il is only that

once living spring OF affection and re-
gard. Perhaps the truest way Of putting
II Is that a sentiment which was once
sctive has now become Dormant. People
AMI reople are still cousins, IN you Ike,
but they are cousins who have "ccased to
write" There Is no blame, either, TO
give or TO receive. America, so far as our
knowledge goes, has never knowingly
wronged US in thought or deed. IL has

From this time on we are going
TO try and be friends with the
Bellevue Herald and the people OF
old Logan county. If the Herald
will quit making fun out of the
seat of our pants we will agree to
say nothing more about the old
century plant.
We reciprocate the many kindly
sentiments of the Herald, and we
accept their suggestion that it is to
their interests to side in with Lin
coin. Ave also appreciate the
Herald's advice that Blaine county
should give Lincoln county her
property. The herald is right
when il says that four years ago
we gave up the county property
quietly, and that it is no more than
fair for them now to give back to
us what the courts says is ours.
We are friendly with the people of
old Logan county, and we will
cheerfuily cooperate with them.
On the other hand we have no
more love for Alturas than the Lo-
gan people have.
Now. Mr.. Herald, let us unite
our forces against the common
enemy.

do not believe they will find a
remedy for their wrongs in the
courts. At any rate their remedy
through the courts is long and
expensive method, and the outcome
is an uncertainty. Did it ever
enter the heads of these people to
take the situation rs it is and then
make the most of it? Do the peo-
pie Of old Logan know that if they
unite they can control Blaine
county, Let them take the official
vote cast in the last general cleo
ton in both Logan and Alturas
counties and compare the vote of
what is left of Logan county with
the vote of Alturas county, and
they will find Logan county is in a
large majority. Now let the pre- |
cincts of Bellevue, Broadford, Silver
Creek, Spring Creek, Tikura, Little
Wood River and Camas Prairie be
united and they can overwhe!m-
lngly control the county. At the
next general election old Logan
county ought to elect every county
official in Blaine county, including
