Buffalo Jones for the legislature on
an independent ticket, who was
known to hold more conservative
views about cutting those lines than
H. P. Myton his opponent. Jones
was elected but counted out by
fraud in Kearney county. The
fraud was notorious but a Republi-
can legislative investigating COM
mittee stood by Myton because he
was the regular Republican nominee.
That was in the palmy days of 49,
900 majority and they could afford
and did do almost anything they
chose to do. Since the Populists
came on the earth they are more
careful.

The Populists are talking of trying
to induce Judge Caldwell to make the
race for president on their ticket. II
the judge looks anything like his
picture in the State Journal he is ugly
enough to make an ideal Populist
candidate.-Yates Center News,
For good looks Judge Caldwell sizes
up pretty well with Mckinley. Har.
rison, Reed or Cleveland. Presidents
don't count much on that score. Only
one beautiful man has been elected
to a high Office in recent years, and
that is Chester l. Long of Kansas
Topeka Journal.
And it has proven in this case tina,
beauty doesn't count much in the
requirements of real practical service
to the people.

Senator PETER.

Sundays Chicago Times Herald,
which, previous to its purchase by
the plutocracy year or more ago,
was warm advocate OF free coiu-
age and champion Of the people, S
interests generally, gave utterance to
the following:
In order to pan1er To a certain Kan.
sas element Senator PETER finds il
necessary TO suspect Secretary Car
Isle OF being dishonest. The general
public has some well-grounded sus-
picions in the case OF PETER.
If such silly innuendo were to
emanate from some degenerate,
time-serving, hero-echoing, cross
roads county newspaper, but little
would be thought Of it, but coming
from q great institution like the
Times-Herald it serves to show to
what straits are the able champions
Of allied corporate interests driven.
We should like to inquire OF this
great bulwark of plutocracy what
constitutes, in its opinion, just
grounds for suspicion Of dishonesty
on the part Of officials. Carlisle is
a man who preached one thing while
in congress and practiced the oppo-
site when exalted to the executive
department. He is now enforcing
on this nation that which he himself
said would "entail more misery upon
the people Of this country than all
the wars and pestilence Of modern
times" He sold the bonds Of this
government to syndicate at price
which caused the mysterious disap.
pearance of several millions of their
value. In the name Of patriotism,
will the Times Herald tell a waiting
world what all public official can
do and still maintain his honor
above suspicton1
As to Senator PETERS honor the
Voice can say truthfully that it has
never been called in question before,
even by opposing political papers.
On the other hand, they have uni
versally given him credit for hon
esty. Among all the political sins
charged against him dishonesty has
never been laid at his door. He has
been above reproach.
The true inwardness Of this sheer
at Senator PETER, and the utter SUBJ
servience Of the Times Herald to
the corporate interests, is shown by
the very next paragraph printed in
Its columns, 1t says:
Senator Thurston is at the head
Of a large majority Of Nebraska Re-
publiCaDs who are able to Judge be-
tween political green goods and the
genuine article"
Senator Thurston is the railroad
attorney whom the Pacific railroads
sent to the senate from Nebraska 10
represent them. He is faithful to
his trust, hence this commentator
from the Times Herald.

ample we have the case Of Richard
Klaetka Of Chicago, who killed his

Of work. Considering the way op-
portunities are held out of reach Of
so many, one might ask what else can
