each because of such success which was
only possible by a party ascendancy that
made a nomination equivalent to an
election.
Branding a citizen democrat, republi-
a or populist does not impair personal
character for ability and honesty, nor
does it improve it, nor change it in the
slightest degree. But the suspected
character, the citizen without much in
tegrity and with the least real regard
for the public veal, generally, if he
seeks Office, joins with great enthusiasm,
and much expression of fervid zeal and
ardent devotion, the party which has an
assured majority. In such an organ
ization he is more likely to get a job of
holding office. This has been proved in
the political and public life of Douglas
county, Lancaster county and the state
of Nebraska very clearly a great many
times.
Any political party with a big major
ity-nO matter what the best men of the
party think, advise or proposes liable
to give it's nominations to mere machine
office seekers and to thus foist upon the
state men who are intellectually and
morally incapable of approaching and
properly performing the duties of pub

surprises. When they came in captiv-

Shipping a certain golden image, per-
formed upon the cornet, flute, harp,
sackbut, psaltery and dulcimer, and the
result must have been very gratifying
to the indwelling spirit. In the Roman
Catholic church today a bell is sounded
when the officiating priest holds up the

The rafting and humping that pro-
coed from the sacred inclosure of the
Indian medicine tent, and the discords
that the Chinese laundryman plucks
from his long-tailed banjo before the
gaudy god who is never missing from

The explanation of S widespread a

matter of theory. To account for these

of primitive man. Many of them have
set their hand to it, but nobody knows
much the more. One view of the mat

away harmful spirits at critical times

eclipse of the sun and the church-bell
is still tolled in eastern towns immedi-
ately after a death, and also during an

purely instruments of worship; atten-

resembles the pyramids of Egypt, and
also the flame of fire, the purifying and
life-giving element, which must have
