Deputy U. S. Marshal.

The candidacy of A. E. Carver
Tor deputy United States Marshal
is endorsed by the best men in the
state and there is a strong proba-
bility that he will be successful.
From the standpoint of fitness no
better man can be found, and Mr..
Carver has many friends who would
like to see him rewarded for fealty
TO his party, and also because he
is eminently qualified for the du-
ties of the office.

Mr.. Bryan at the request of his
friends will be allowed to command
a regiment from Nebraska and go
to The Philippines. Rules have
been suspended and men of ex-
periencc have taken a back seat
simply because it is Mr.. Bryan; if
the administration had refused
this all sorts of hue and cry would
have been raiscd-in fact in IN
ticipation of such thing the air
was already getting blue. Bryan
came as near making himself n
great man out of flimsy opportuni-
ties as any man ever did; he is
entitled to great credit for past
achievements; but he has not nor
cannot expect to accomplish any
thing in his last role. When Ben
Butler became brlgadier general
of the army, although fraught then
with great opportunities he stead
lily lost ground because he was not
a real soldier, while real soldiers
grew up famous all around him.
Bryan is not soldier by birth,
education or bearing, and the
present war is not going to be a
great place for record breaking il
he was. The result then is bound
to be that the army measure as an
antidote for Mckinley poison will
probably not help much.

ty, and dragged the inmates, six women
and three men out of bed in their
night clothes. No time was given them
to get their clothes, money or valuables.
The house was then blown TO pieces with
three sticks of dynamite. The inmates
were tarred and feathered and taken
to the Shuman House and all locked in
Il room together till daylight. No APP
parent effort was made to discover
who did the act. and the popular senti-
ment is that nothing wrong was done.
