First of the Season.

Web Anderson, OF this city, fireman
on the third division of the b. & O. Rail
road, has the honor of bringing the first
wild turkey into Martinsburg this season,
He spent Tuesday hunting in the mount
aims about Cherry Run and was reward
ed by killing a seventeen-pound turkey,
which proved quite curiosity as he car
RED it through town last night. The
turkey weighed seventeen pounds.
The law prohibiting the killing of wild
turkeys ran out last week and the season
will soon be on in earnest. Mr.. Anderson
also shot a small turkey on Monday. He
is familiar with every foot of ground
around Cherry Run and frequently has
successful hunting trips in that vicinity.

When one plank of political plat
form is admittedly rotten, the entire
structure should be condemned at the

not striving TO hide or apologize for a
single line of the Philadelphia plat
form.
An intelligent and careful newspaper
writer declares that there are more
wndmills in Nebraska than in any 9th
or state in the Union. So the Populist
orators don't have things all their own
way in Nebraska.

The Same ola Cronker.

In 1896 Mr.. Bryan howled from
thousand stumps that the gold stand
ard would ruin the country. And the
country is richer, more prosperous,
more confident than ever before.
Now Mr.. Bryan is beginning to howl
from a thousand stumps that imperial
ism will ruin the country
1t is fair to assume that his later
prophecies are worth just as much as
his earlier ones and that expansion will
be the source of new prosperity and
power Such it has been to the United
States for nearly a hundred years.
