Bitter Taste.

Daniel Webster in the famous White
trial in Salem, Mass, years ago declared
that murder will OUT. This maxim
has been found applicable to many other
things besides murder. Housewives know
it to be true when there is ALUM in bak.
ing powder. A bitterness in the bread
at once betrays the alum's presence It
can't conceal its true nature. The alum
bitterness "will OUT, and because it will,
physicians, who understand the harmful
effect of alum on the system, are at a loss
to know why people continue to buy bak.
ing powders containing it. All baking
powders sold for twenty-five cents a
pound and less contain alum, There is
surely no economy in using these cheap
powders. For a pure cream of tartar
powder, as DR.. Prices was shown to be
at the Worlds Fair, goes SO much farther
and gives so much better results, there
is no doubt of its being more economical
in the long run.

SCHOOL NOTES.


Politics is no more engrossing the pu-
pills. minds.
Lantern class tonight at 7 O'Clock for
the 4th, 5th aud 9th grades only.
The Assembly has been reviewing ge-
ography lately, the upper grades showing
a wonderful deficiency in that study.
There is talk of dividing the I2th grade
latin class as some of the pupils in the
grade are able to do less advanced work.
The high school has been rearranged
again, the 18th and nth grades occupy
ing the east room, the 10th and 9th the
other.
The pupils will furnish themselves
with Quotation Books, containing
quotations from famous authors, for work
in the assembly room.
A game of foot ball will take place
between the school boys and an outside
eleven, on Thanksgiving day. The boys
have began training up.

Stand Up for Nebraska.

One grows weary of all this Acoudi-
tional order" business: and now the es-
teemed Lincoln Call wastes a column In
attempting to prove that there will be
no railroad building in Nebraska on &C
count of Populist control OF the state; all
of which is veriest bosh. In the FIRST
place their is little or no demand for
more railroads in Nebraska. The people
OF the state are not able to support a
much greater mileage. in fact hardly the
present mileage. on the present prices
OF farm products. Railroads have been
built In the past rather in advance, If
anything. of commercial requirements.
The west Is suffering more from over
building than from insufficient railway
facilities. 1t the present mileage is not
profitable as we are asked TO believe,
why build more? The same fact holds
good in other investments: The city of
Lincoln IS suffering more today from ov-
er building than from lack OF money to
erect more expensive and Improbable
blocks. Western Nebraska has been
more seriously crippled during the past
few years by the large amount ~ofunprof-
liable money loaned on her real estate
than she has been by lack of money.
There has been ov~er-speculation every
where. There is still money available
for safe and profitable investment in all
lines, and this Includes lines of railway
that are actually needed. There a-e now
hundreds of mi IS of dollars invest
ed in unprofi A..roads in the coun-
try. This fact will go farther in deterr-
ing capital from seeking investment in
that direction than all the Populist legis-
latures on earth. The TRIBUNE is dis
posed to think that a few uewspapermeu
and statesmen out of a job are more fear
tul that the coming legislature may not
"tear things wide-open" than they are
solicitous that it will further destroy the
fair name II credit of Nebraska. Stand
up for Nebraska! With favorable sea-
sons, her lands will yield as abundantly,
and her cattle on a thousand hills will
be just as valuable, no matter who sits
In the seat of customs!

The total vote cast in the county IS
ao7I. If the supreme court holds that a
majority of the votes cast is necessary,
then but one amendment carried, that
providing for an increase in the number
of supreme judges. On the other hand,
If the court holds that a majority of the
votes cast in the separate ballot box is
required. then every one of the twelve
amendments carried. Some are of opin-
ION that the court may decide the latter
way. while the former requirement seems
to be the law.

The Great Opportunity.

With the president and both branches
of the national legislature the Republi-
can party will have one of the greatest
opportunities of its existence TO make a
record with the people of America that
will continue the party in power for
many years. If the party shall be able
to bring about the promised prosperity
permanently, maintain a safe, sound and
ample currency, and wisely and equita-
bly, apply the constitutional idea of
tariff TO the end that sufficient revenue
may be derived to run the government
and incidental protection be given to in
.ustries needing such governmental aid,
then the party's reign will be long Il
happy. On the other hand if the pros.
perity now budding into existence be
but temporary, if the burdens ofthe peo-
pie are not l%ightened, if the difficulties
of maintaining the gold standard are not
removed or at least greatly diminished.
IF wisdom ard unselfshness do not mark
tariff legislation of the coming session of
congress, then prepare for a simoom of
popular discomfort which will not stop
short of another political revolution.
The Republican party will soon be on
trial again. If the party shall stand the
crucial test, if the promises of the great
campaign just closed mature into sub
stantial and fixed form and prosperity
and felicity are the peoples portion, then
there is before the party another quarter
century of understandable sway. May
such be its portion.
