DEATH OF ROBERT GALBRAITH
A Former Master Mechanic of the Wy
oming Divion Of the Union Pacific.

The Hebron. Neb, Journal of June 10,
contains the following obituary notice:
Robert Galbraith was born in Glas-
gov, Scotland, July s, 1920, and died at
Hebron, Neb., June s, 1900. Had he
lived thirty days longer he would have
reached the ripe old age of so years, but
disease claimed him before Fother Time
had carried him to the -four score limit.
August 2, 1871, he married Helen DON
aldson who still lives to mourn the loss
Of the loving companion of almost six
ty years, for in 1891 they celebrated
their golden wedding anniversary at
Hebron. Eight children were born to
bless this union: Amelia Heath, Rob-
ert NJ. Galbraith, Eliza Storm, William
D. Galbraith, George H. Galbraith,
Mary Ellen Strong, Harry D. Galbraith
and Annie Laurie Strong. These are
all living with the exception of Mary
Ellen Strong, who died at Evanston in
1884. All deeply lament the loss of a
kind and loving father.
The deceased with his wife was bap-
tiZed into the Christian church by Ell
der John Bowes, at Manchester, Eng
land, in the year 1S49, thus he had
labored in the masters vineyard for
over half a century.
IN October of the year 1S49, attract
ed by the inviting prospects in Ameri-
ca, they left their native membership
there. They lived in Illinois for 10
years In the towns of Jacksonville, AL
ton, Litchfield and Bloomington. The
next o was to Wyoming in 1868,
ed to Hebron, Thayer county, Nebras-
ka, which has been the home of his old
age and where he has made a host of
friends who deeply feel his loss. Ever
since coming to Hebron he has been
connected with the Christian church
and was much loved by his brothers
and sisters in Christ Jesus. Mr.. Gal
braith was a mechanical engineer of
rare ability and has occupied positions
of trust with various railway COM
panies. Not only was he appreciated
by them IN account of his mechanical
ability, but because of his temperate
habits and sterling morality.
1T can truly be said that the de-
ceased has been a faithful and affec-
tionate husband, a loving father, a pa
, 1900-06-18

triotic citizen and a consistent Christ
lar, more than which can be said of
but few lives. While he will be great
ly missed by wife, children, relatives,
fellow citizens and christians, we all
must thank God that he has been pro-
NOTED from this life of toll and pain
to that better life beyond the grave
where toll and pain are nc more.
Few men. after seventeen years
residence, stand as high in the commu-
nifty as did Robert Galbraith. Imbued
with the sturdy Scotch integrity, his
word was as good as his bond. For
many years he was n of the directors
of the Thayer County bank and his
name was a guaranty of solidity.
Rev. r. A. Schell conducted the fu-
neral services at the Christian church
Sunday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock,
where the many floral offerings paid
a loving tribute to the memory of the
deceased. The funeral was in charge
of Hebron Lodge No. 43, A. f. & A. NJ,
who attended the services in a body
and accompanied the bereaved family
to Sunny Slope Hebron cemetery,
where they performed the last sad
rites, using the beautiful ritualistic SER
vices of the order, and where all that
was mortal Of Robert Gal1raith was
gently placed to rest in the flower lined
brick vault"

above 5000. Ten years ago the official
census gave Cheyenne 12,44S. Consid-

return the fire and protect the flag?
Had the administration ordered a with
drawal of our troops after that attack,
no one would be more vehement than
the democrats in denouncing its lack
of spirit. The nation would stand dis
graced before the world, and the prest-
ige Of Admiral Dewey's victory would
have been neutralized. There was
nothing to do but accept Aguinaldo's
challenge and prosecute the war until
he and his army we're defeated and
forced to recognize American au-
thority.
What the future policy of the gov
eminent toward the Philippines shall
be is a matter for settlement in the flu
ture. But the present course is clear.
American authority must be recogni2-
ed, and after that is secured a stable
government must be erected. The first
the United States owes to itself: the
cause of humanity. The most speedy
way for the Filipmos to secure the lib
erty they desire is to show themselves
worthy Of it, and the most effectual
way for their friends in this country to
aid them is to uphold the hands of the
administration in its policy of restoring
order and establishing n good govern
ment. The Copperheads in the north
aided neither the Union nor the Confed-
eracy by snarling at the heels of Abra-
ham Lincoln, and their successors in
this day and generation will accom-
plish no more.-Denver Republican.

MUST BE HARD TO SUIT.

The Sprisgield Republican has the
following to say concerning the atti-
tude of Senator Teller toward the re-
publican party and the expansion poll
cy:
Senator Teller is having hard work
to place himself. He tried again yes
terday, talking on all sides Of the Phil
ippine question and agreeing with no
side. He is opposed to imperialism,
but would hold the islands. However
he concludes by saying that even If he
agreed with the republicans on the
financial question he could not support
that party on the i~mperialist issue.
Still he would hold the Philippines and
for our W trade and profit. He is
hard to suit"
Senator Teller Is not the only oppon-
ent of the administration who finds it
difficult to explain his position in re-
gard to expansion. No choice is left
them save open advocacy of abandon
ing the islands or the adoption Of the
course which the administration is pur-
suing. Either we must hold on to the
Philippines or VI must give them up.
The democrats will not dare to advo-
cate their abandonment. But If they
are to be retained what course is left
other than that of reducing the insurg-
ents to peace and order?
Many democrats seem to forget that
1t was Aguinaldo who began the war.
Nothing had been done by the Ameri-
can forces to justify his attack. The
policy of the government was under
consideration in the senate. 1t had
NOT been defined when Aguinaldo and
his men fired on the American flag
and tried to drive the troops OF the In
tied States into the sea.

Robert Galbraith was well known to
the people of Laramie and Wyoming.
From 1868 to 1888 he was master me-
chanic Of the Wyoming division of the
Union Pacific, with headquarters in
this city. His character left an impress
for good upon this community that can
never be effaced. To the men under his
direction he was o than an employ
er. By example and precept he ever
~endeavored to guide them in the path
way Of honor, truth and virtue. He
was a mechanic of the old school and
believed employees should render good
learned trades under him became good
workmen and many of them now hold
responsible positions in various states.
Some of the very best railroad men
now holding positions with the Union
Pacific started with Mr.. Galbraith and
they thank God they did. Not only did
he mold them into good workmen, but
he made Of them good citizens as we'll.
AS a citizen of Laramie Robert Gal
braith stood high in the love of the peo-
pie. In financial matters he was the
soul of honor. AS a public oficial-and
he held several important places of
trust-he was incorruptible, efficient
and unerring in judgment.
He was a man whom many considered
gruff, yet he was kind and gentle. 1t
was in his home relations where the
real beauty of his character showed out
Respondent. There all was peace and
happiness, and in that typical home
many an erring workman found an ad-
vocate in the fond and loving wife.
Discipline caused him to discharge
some, and often his sterner nature was
melted by her earnest solicitude and
and sweet, sympathetic character.
Think of the poor mans family, Rob-
ert," she would say, and generally his
heart was softened and the offender re-
turned to work.
Honorable, upright, conscientious,
Robert Galbraith had few peers among
men. His life made the world better.
He is r~everenced by the railroad men
of the Wyoming division above all 9TH
ers. I.t

~DEMOCRACY'S PLIGHT.

The democratic party is truly be-
tween the devil and the deep sea. If
1t declares un~eQuivocally for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to l 1t will not have a ghost
Of a show in New York or Indiana and
probably not in Maryland. On the 9TH
er hand, If it does not declare for free
silver 1t cannot carry Nebraska or Ida
no, and Montana and Colorado will be
close.
1t now seems almost a certainty
that the Kansas City convention will
adopt a straddle plank-one that will
bear almost any construction that one
may choose to place upon it. OF course
the convention will reaffirm the Chi
cago platform, but hat really means
nothing. 1t is simply a whistle to keep
up the courage Of the silver men whom
they have already planned to desert.
The democrats now know that the re-
monetization of silver is beyond the
realm Of all human probability; that
even IL their party should by a fuke
succeed at the polls it would be unable
to pass a financial measure changing
the present status OF u currency.
The most they could do would be 10
threaten and thus create another panic,
upsetting the affairs Of the nation and
causing widespread distrust.
The question of expansion is also an
important one for the democrats. One
gon has spoken, and the entire Pacific
coast feels the same way. The great
west sees rapid and immense develop
ment through the trade Of the Orient
and any party that advocates a with
drawal of American power from the
d Philippines will find little favor west
OF the Rockies.
In the south, too, the real spir-
it OF the people is favorable to
the retention of u hold in the Pacific,
for the very good reason that the
Philippines, China and Japan use i'm
mense quantities of cotton goods. AL
ready the southern states have felt a
great impetus in this business. Sena-
tor Gordon of Alabama sees the hand
writing on the wall and is now a fol
lower OF Bryan only because it would
be political suicide for him to take any
other position.
1.-The Kansas City convention has
work Of a ticklish nature to perform.

THURSDAY. AUGUST 2, 1900,
SIXTEEN TO ONE.

When Mr. John Wise laughipgly
said last night that neither he nor
Bryan knew what the 16 to clause
in the Democratic platform meant,
he was simply "joshing" He knew
that the patience OF his audience
would not hold out through a dis
course on the monetary policy of
the United States. The question is
not one which can be even termed
intricate. Every man who has
studied the conditions OF the money
markets will understand that gold
and silver are simply merchandise,
and that as a matter OF convenience
they are used as exchange for pro-
ducts, necessary to the people OF the
whole world and iucommodious to
handle as exchange. Mr.. Bryan and
his followers think that there is
more silver available than gold, and
that it will be easier to pay for the
products you need in silver than in
gold. A gold dollar has a certain
fixed value, leaving out the neces
sary alloy. A silver dollar has also
a certain intrinsic value, and the
relative value has been fixed by the
United States as 16 silver dollars to
l goldIdollar, Gold, in tho mean
time, has become very numerous,
and the output from the Transvaal
and Alaska may help to settle the
vexed monetary question as far as
politics are concerned. Remember
that gold as we'll as silver in itself is
nothing. Platinum is a harder and
better metal than the ones we use
for coins, but it is extremely scarce.
Gold and silver have been adopt
ed as exchange for merchandise
and by rule, arbitrarily set
up, the values of the respective
minerals have been fixed to suit them
at the rate OF 16 to l. The men
interested in gold prefer to have
gold as the sole standard Of coinage.
The men who think that silver is as
good as gold in proper proportion
we'll they are the Brysnites. and
John Wise is their phrophet here.
