New York, New Jersey and Ken
tucky cast fifty-eight electoral votes
fer Mckinley, onecf Kentucky's votes
going to Bryan. New York, New
Jersey and Kentucky all went demo.
cratic last week. Had Mckinley been
candidate last week instead of last
gear the popular vote in these three
democratic states would certainly
have been cast against him. Now,
aeGuc. these SO electoral votes from
tae 271 which Mr.. Mckinley received
and there are left :2l3. Add these IS
electoral votes to the 176 of Mr.. Bryan
aud he would have 234. That is
majority Of q IN the electoral Collage
In other words, the democrats do no,
nsed to gain another state. They
need only retain these three--New
York, New Jersey and Kentucky
and they will elect the next President!

Some time ago we asked a gentle
man for details regarding a deal in
real estate, and he replied that he did
notscare about making the matter pub
lie, because it was a ~''personal" mat
ter, That set us thinking, and we
confess that proceeding upon the the
Org of the gentleman referred to. the
country newspaper would have very
little in it. Fol- instance: a wedding
is a personal affair; so is a divorce
case; and a birth is, too. A bank fail
,ure is a personal matter; a suicide is
another; so is a runawaway wife or
husband, A lawsuit is a personal
matter and SO is a new house; a case
Of contagious disease is a personal
matter, and so is the4advent of a new
business firm. What would the poor
newspaper mar do If he left all these
"personal matters" and "private af-
fairs" out of his paper?

Every year at aboat this time, beet
sugarTactories are talked of and every
body gets excited. Last year it was
reported that twenty-five small factor
les were to be established in this state
as feeders for a large refinery in the
city of Omaha. Every town, almost,
in she state, thought it was sure to get
one of those factories, but they didn't.
Let every other town stand back, now.

r PRINCIPLES,
Herald.

Meanwhile certain principles, which
stand back of party issues. and give
the breath of life to party leaders, re-
main upon the scene as actual and as
vital as ever they were; Immortal; for
truth can never die: and here are three
simple propositions III which good gov
eminent must entrench itself, from
which it,must draw its sastenance, if
we are to turn the corner OF a new CEN
fury a republic in both the substance
and the spirit which were designed by
the makers of the constitution.
Fitst-The government has no right
either equitable CT legal to tax the peo-
pie except to raise money for its own
support; every dollar of taxation di-
verted from this purpose is robbery
and it is equally important that the
money legally collected shall be hon.
estly applied.
Second-The sight of the people to
local self, government is an inallenable
right: to local option in the counties;
to home rule in the cities; to all rights
in the state not expressly delegated to
the general governaent; and that the
preservation of this night of local SELF
government is essential to that just
equilibrium between liberty and law
which are the corner stones of our
federal and state Institutions.
Third-The money OF the country
mast be good money; circulating ey-
e%ryHhere; unqGestioned and unques-
tionsble; recognized at once and taken
at it's full value; and, that, to attain
this universal recognition and accept
ance, it Gaust consist of gold and silver
and paper. the whole of interchange
able value, each convertible into the
other on demand and circulating side
by side.

CHANCE THE LAK.

One feature IN connection with the
keeping of the ballots under the pres
gut Law whichtcommends itself to con-
oeetants is the ease with which a don
hest case can be won by a recount
provided the c~ontestor and one having
she care and custody of the ballots are
both modern Feformers. For instance,
DE- the clerk OF his county was a fusion
asst and incline to be none too honest,
. Paul Nelson could instigate a contest
& against Agge'Axen for the Office of
treasurer ass5 all that won,d be ueces-
sary to win'GTould be for the clerk or
some other person having access to the
vault to uncoll the Ballot and made a
cross mark in the square following Mr..
Nelson's name On thirty OF more ballots
voted republican, and without any fur
ther change and with No treasures the
contest woGld be wOn. G'he trainers
and makers of the Law must either
have presumed a great deal upon the
integrity of officials into whose custody
the ballotssTaust pass after leaving the
hands of the election boards or the law
was passed with the intention of giving
the present party in power in Nebraska
~ dishonest advantage IN all election
J. matters. Stanton pickle.
This paper has always been opposed
to this aiEkod of voting, and, ,objec-
ton thereto is daily growing stronger.
Says the Courier.Jouih sl of a similar
method inSkentuckS:
The present ballot Law was devised
in the interest of party. Under it all
/. of q hundred names that may be placed
+ on q party ticket are usually voted fol
!; by each eiector. y X Any other sort
/ of voting IS so discouraged by bal
lot laws that they fear their ballots
will not be counted at al if voted 9th.
D.. erwiSe.
I The size of the balleteaaecessary M.
der the present law, is conducive tx
{ mistakes In counting by the election
: board. Suppose, for instance, yoI
! wished atithe last election to vote
; straight republican ticket with n ex
) cepsion, say Morton fcrz agent. Yol
y would make a cross under the eagl
and n opposite Morton's name. It
. 16 to the election board would over
look thesvote for Morton. Numerou
cases of this nature occurred no doub
in fact We have positive assuranc
of severaaaZ this county. Who is t
blame! Mistakes like this are easiI
made. The law should guard agains
them, butt doesn't.

The editor OF tile News is a red hot
fusionlst now, but he is about three
months too late. Had he taken the
stand three Eontns ago that he does

NOT VALENTINES U

The annexation proposition was de-
feated in Cherry county, hat the fel.
, lows from Valentine who circulated
the report TO the effect that Grant
county did sEot want the annexation
and would vote against it, can now
find cold consolation q noting tina,
l39 Of our people voted yes while one
lonely fellow, either from ignorance
O foolishness voted no. when next
this question comes up, which it will at
some future day, the opposition will
not win by E-evarication, and don't
you forget it.-Hyannis Tribune.
Bro. L~ounsangy is a very excitable
tsGaan, evidently, but we ;sike him,
saast the same. because he turns out a
/. very good paper. he is way off on
stSis annexatiea business, however.
NJ don't,know of a single Valentine
<nan who made sEch statements as he
;, psfers to, and wAsdon't believe he does
either. If the Tribune will exa mine
the abstract of the vote in this county
he will see that &he annexationlsts
have no just cause for complaint
against Valentine. In only 3 ef the
tweEty-six precincts in this county
did the proposition receive a majority
of tha votes cast. Valentine gave the
proposition 19 per cent of the vote
cast thereon, and this percentage was
exceeded by only five precincts other
than thsse which gave majority. The
proposition received onsg 23.4 per cent
of the votes cast thereon in the county
.aad less than l6 per cent of the entire
vote. We think Bro. Lonasbury owes
az apology 50 Valentine. We don't
blaRne. Grant for wanting to more
thaR double tas size of its territory
and, greatly increase its population.
Let it annex Hooker county add put
the county seat as Whitman 0, Null

.RESULT OF WE Yer IN CUBA

aRESULT OF WE Yer IN CUBA.
What is the result of Weyler's pol
icy and the complacency of this gov
eminent? Starvation is killing the
.ssconcentradoes" OF Cuba by tens OF
thousands. Hunger is doing what
SPANS soldiers could not. Women
and children, the weak and old, are
dying like sheep. The rural popuia-
,tion has filled the grave yards. The
Unburied dead are,too many for the
graves. The suffering of the living is
frightful. In San Domingo the sick
fall, dying on the garbage. There
they lie for hours. when they are col.
iected and hauled away to the dump
ing grounds. The church cemeteries
are full. Most of the dead b%odiesare
thrown in fields to be eaten by buzz
ards and the dogs.
The spectacle is too horrible t.
think about. All this is happening
under the nose of a nation that de-
lights to call itself Christian and en-
lightened. Is it any wonder that the
yellow fever has visited the south
an6 with such horrors before our eyes
that the coming summer may make
our southern cities and towns ar
Aceidama-a place of skulls?--W World
