NOTES AND COMMENT.

G.. w. Fairbank, one Of that States
richest men, has been elected Senator from
Indiana to succeed Dan Voorhees,.
Clay Center Times: "The long and short
of the monetary conference in Indianapolis
is resolution that the greenback must go. !"
The free silver Democrats and the Popu.
lists Of the Illinois Legislature gave the
caucus nomination for Senator to ex-Gov-
ernor Altgeld.
Mr.. Bryan urges that silver clubs be not
named for him as he does not care to ap-
pear In the attitude of candidate for
Presidential honors.
Lyman J. Gage, President of the First
National Bank Of Chicago, says that he
has not been rendered Secretary Of the
Treasury, but would accept it if offered.
Attorney General Harmon has filed suit
in the Federal court at Omaha for FORE
closure Of the second mortgage on the
Union Pacific line from Omaha to Ogden
and on the Kansas Pacific from Kansas
City to Denver. The petition sets forth
that the first lien is 500, 229, 600 and the sec
ond is $27, ,2S6,OOO. The statement is made
that no payment has ever been made on
the bonds except that paid by the govern
ment. The petition asks that the govern
ment's mortgage be foreclosed, the road
sold and the proceeds turned over to the
Secretary Of the Treasury.

It Is clear that in Ohio over $4,000
fraudulent votes were counted, and, as
the returns show that Mr.. Mckinley
had only a majority Of $4,000 in that
State, It is certain that Mr.. Bryan car
ried Ohio by over 10000,
"In Illinois In 1892 practically every
legal vote was cast, yet In 1895 there
were 243, 900 more votes counted than
there were In 1892. During the whole
past history of Illinois our population
had not reached 1900, 900; in ten years,
from 1880 to 1890, during which our
growth was greatest, the population Of
the State increased only about $50, 600;
yet, according to the late election re-.
turns the population of this State In
creased in four years, from 1892 to
1896, nearly 100000. This shows the
monstrOusIy fraudulent character Of
the whole proceeding.
"It should be said that, notwith.
standing these fraudulent votes, Nc
Kinley did carry Illinois, but only by
small majority and not by 10000 ma
jority as reported, but it is certain that
he did not carry Ohio, or indiana, or
Kentucky, or California, and 1t Is
doubtful If he carried a number Of
other States credited to him"

A TRIBUTE TO MR.. BRYAN AT HOME.

In the January North american Re-
oiesO, Mr.. Andrew Carnegie, after
discussing the political doctrines advo-
Gated by Mr.. Bryan during the late
Presidential campaign, pays the fol.
lowing beautiful tribute to the great
Democrat leader at his home:
The discovery Of such q couple and such .
home as that Of Mr.. and Mrs Bryan-for she
seems almost equally remarkable with her
husbSnd-is something at which our country
may be pleased and may pointed to as the
product Of Triumphant Democracy. Both
models Of purity In their simple lives, wholly
free from ostentation, kind neighbors, and
earnest in their desire to do their part toward
making the world little better and, to crown
all, ardent lovers, devoted heart and soul 10
each other, the wife standing nobly at her
husbands side throughout all his trials. 1t Is
beautiful picture, difficult to equal, impossible
TO excel. in other lands. That they are grieV-
ously at fault In regard to human society and
its complex problems-not as to Its Ills, but as
to their cure, or, what 10 far better than eure,
their prevention-is only what we should ex-
pect. What young, inexperienced, generous
heart has not begun by being indignant at the
contrasts, the sufferings, and imagined wrongs
Of humanity, and lent itself to the advocacy
of nOstrums for their cure the adoption OF
which would only spread and aggravste the
very ills It would 80 fondly extirpate. Yet
these are the characters which in after life
often learn to substitute evolution for revolu'
ton and do most genuine good, because, upon
investigation, they find that human society is
not, as they at first supposed, composed OF
warning elements, but that each Of Its parts is
mutually dependent upon the permanent
prosperity of all. The country cannot cease
to retain kindly interest in Mr.. and Mrs.
Bryan, nor cease to expect to hear OF them In
the future nor can the American people as o
whole. without regard to party, fail to be
deeply touched by the sweet, humble, loving
home-the true palace Of all the virtues
which the political campaign has revealed to
the world, nor to pray that for many long,
happy years to come 1t may be preserved,

speeches accepting the result and
pledging their support to the nominee.

stubborn, was good natured one, and
the best Of good feeling prevailed
throughout.
Senator PETER led on the first and

A New Reaper In the FIeId.

The initial number Of weekly jour

Pa. II this number is fair sample OF
what is to follow, the field Of reform has
new reaper in it. The mechanical
makeup Of the paper is excellent, the
print is full and clear, and the matter is
ofgood quality well presented
AS showing the trend Of The Ne'0
ORDERS thought, we copy few sample
paragraphs from its editorial columns:
"This paper will advocate the most
approved views Of modern authoritative
political economists upon governmental
and sociological questions. 1t is not
attached to either Of the political parties;
it finds much that is patriotic and wise
in the avowed policy Of each OF them,
but as government is progressive, while
parties are largely the product OF past
issues, there 10 room for higher levels OF
endeavor than are reached or professed
by modern political organizations.
Il We do not believe that party
traditions, however revered, necessarily
correctly solve the problems OF to-day.
The science Of government being pro-
gressive, new factors are constantly in
troduced, which necessarily qualify
conditions and render precedents derived
from simpler premises either wholly in
applicable or seriously misleading.
The problems of the hour
are infinitely more complex than were
those which found their solution, or at
tempted solution, in the legislation OF
earlier times, and must be examined in
the light of modern knowledge OK the
law Of evolution as applied to the devela
opmeut OF higher and more advanced
condition Of government than has here
tofore existed. The utilitarian doctrine
Of the greatest good for the greatest
number is the finsl generalization OF
modern political economy, and it ia the
province Of our republican form OF
government to work out this result. II
ia, however, one thing to discern the OBJ
iect in view, and quite another to point
out by what means the object can be
attained. The doctrine is in itself
touch-stone, which, II honestly applied
to the mass Of law already upon our
statute books, would indicate many
wholesome and very desirable reforms,
while to all proposed new legislation 1t
should be most vigorously applied"

Citizens Attention.

These are days of considerable
anxiety and perplexity to all who
have possessions or other interests
In the Republic of Hawaii, and it
is time that our citizens came to
mutual understanding on several
important issues. The prospects
for Annexation appear at present
vague and indistinct, and our
destiny cannot be foretold with
certainty. There are those, also,
who still fondly cling to the hope
of a return to the old order of
things, and who cannot be per.
suaded otherwise, yet this out
look appears far more hazy than
that of Annexation even to the
most hopeful disciples of the
Monarchy. But, fortunately, in
the midst of all this uncertainty
there is solace in the fact that
Buffalo Beer has came to stay and
that patrons of all sorts and
opinions may equally share the
benefits of its invigorating and
sustaining properties. We are
moreover assured that this favorite
brew will continue to be dispens--
ed as heretofore at the Royal,
Pacific and Cosmopolitan Sa-
looms.
