Another Combine.

Some of the newspapers over the state
are seriously intimating that a combine
has been formed by MacColl for govern
or, McNish for treasurer and McClav for
auditor-the ostensibe object of which
seems to be TO carry out the wishes of a
we'll known state official now in Office,
whose sole object is to turn over as a le-
gacy what collaterals he has left. There
certainly are indications of the existence
of such a combine, and the Republicans
should express their disapproval when
the time comes, as they no doubt will.
The first intimation of such a scheme
naturally comes from the Lincoln pa
pers, the Courier publishing the an
nouncement in a recent issue of such a
rumor around the Hobbies of the capital
city. The experience of a few men get
ing together and endeavoring to control
the last convention was a very unsatis-
factory one, and if there is any founda-
ton in this new scheme, the rank and
file might just as we'll send in their pre-
f~erences on a postal card and have the
same o. KID by the combine. We can
hardly believe that MacCool has been
engaged in this combine Grand Island
Independent.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1896-05-08

THE newspapers and Republicans gen
orally Are beginning to write and talk
about the combines %slate", which al
ready seems to be made up with Mac
Coll for governor, McNish for treasurer,
and McClay for auditor. With Joe Bart
ley, the astute and clever politician of
the state treasurer's Office, in the head
push, things seem to be moving along
very smoothly for the "Three Macs.
And yet the query naturally arises in the
thoughtful mind, why is the state treas
erer so anxious about the successor to his
Office? And again, is it good business
sense or sensible political policy for the
state of Nebraska or for the Republican
party TO allow this dictation of a sue
cessor to any state Office, and especially
of an Office with the possibilities and
ramifcations of the state treasurership?
Where are we at brethren?

The Power of the Press.

Any political party DESTROYS of per-
manent success must build permanently.
Its principles must first be those meeting
the wan of the public in general, and
when these are once established the best
agencies must be utilized to get them be-
fore the people. The mistaken idea that
many leaders have, that the press is a
minor factor, very often results in the
failure of a good cause. 1t too frequent
" occurs that the force which makes
men great and fixes the destinies of par
ties is too often forgotten when the Office
seeker has reached his desired goal.
Some little minor office is thrown to the
newspaper man for his loyal support,
while the man who has done compare
lively nothing is rewarded with the
spoils. The fraternity are largely to
blame for this condition of things, and
should interest themselves in bringing
about a change. Let the politicians be
given to understand that they are de-
pendent on the press for the success of
their schemes and the press will benefit
only by reciprocity.-Grand Island indie
pendent.

THE question of collaterals and secur-
tiles is each year more and more enter
ing into the nomination of state treasur-
er, and this fact makes it of vast impor-
lance that the matter of legacy or sue
cession be interrupted by the people.
This is one of the stumbling blocks in
the way of the combine now alleged to
exist in favor of the "Three Macs, and
which the versatile and clever Joe Bart
ley is said to be exploiting with all his
peuiuS
