''It is too late for spring rains to do
US much good in Lincoln county, said
J. Eisemann Of DeLamar, Nevada, at
the Cullen yesterday. I'VE have had
no snow and everything is dry. There
are very few sheep and comparatively
few cattle in our district, and the cattle
will probably be all sold off TO save
them-on account of the threatened
drought. Water in our irrigating
bitches will be scarce this season. -

O'Clock two tremendous discharges Of

graph company. The first one burned
the switch board badly, in spite of the
safety fuses, and the second one, about
ten minutes later, RACED ten telegraph
poles near Vista and splintered two of
them into matchwood, throwing frag-
ments clear across tho track. A man
living near by thought some terrible
explosion had occurred.

The Independent Journal.

ONE of the most encouraging signs
in Journalism today is the tendency
towards independence. The sign is a
good one because the independence
shown is the right sort and because OF
the effectiveness Of that element IN
Journalism. Conditions have rnateri4
ally changed IN the last decades Of the
nineteenth century and the inde2end-
ent journal is the legitimate product
of the new circumstances and condi-
tions. Better business methods and
devices have revo1utionized journal
ism, making the newspaper business a
business supporting itself and render
ing the editor and publisher something
other than the servi1e instrument of a
party or community. Time was
when the print and paper creature of
marvellous genius languished and died
on cramped circulation or unpaid SUBJ
scription. Butsthat was when jour
na1ism was public charity and an ed
i.cr was dependent on the patronage

WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN's speech
at Indianapolis is devoted exclusively
to the paramount ISSUE and is a
good presentation OF the anti-imperial-
ist view. It is full of pretty things,
refers to liberty frequently and in a
very touching way, dwells upon the
traditions of our country, quotes our
greatest statesmen and the bible wher-
ever possible, and is on the whole well
calculated to appeal to the sentiment
atty of the people. But il. is, like the
rest of Mr.. Bryan's speeches on seri-
Gus subjects, full Of distractions. It
lacks common sense and practical ap-
p1ica bi1ity. It reveals Bryan, as do all
his speeches, as a dreamer. The ideas
presented in Mr.. Bryan's speech imply
an ideal condition of affairs as foreign
to this mundane sphere at the present
day as the Utopia. No doubt no one
could have presented the fancies of the
'anti-imperiaiist' In a way so fitted to de-
itlonstrate both their impractibi1ity and
the impractical nature of Mr.. Bryan
than Mr.. BRYAN himself. His faculty
of isolating himself and his problems
from ali things else and dealing with
them unassociated with and unln-
f1ueuced by any outside elements,
protrudes itself again in his Id1an-
apo1is speech.
If Bryan were god and the various
problems with which he deals were as
clay in the hands of the potter, there
might be a possibility that under his
dispensation all things might work to-
gether for good. But nothing short of
this could give feasibility to the
schemes of Mr.. Bryan. 1t is so Of his
free silver halunciation and is like
wise true of his imperialist dreams.
He would introduce a system of the
free coinage of silver at the ratio of 10
to /, "without the advice or consent of
any other nation And just so he
would precipitatea so-called settlement
of the momentous problems arising IN
the Orient upon the most abstract
principles, utterly ignoring the exist
ence of the multitudinous and antago-
nistic elements with which all nations
must reckon, and the exigencies that
the future may foster.
Each time Mr.. Bryan exploits his
ideas the danger of entrusting him
with the reins of government becomes
more evident.

of political party, or maybe, on an
Individual. That time IN the United
States has largely past. Maybe the
journalism of today represents less OF
great literary talent than in the olden
days, but there can be no doubt that
our great metropolitan dailies and the
journals of our large cities, as well as
our periodicals, represent as good aD1l-
ity as the country can boast, as well
as business astuteness that by CIV
ing the journal an intrinsic CONNER
cia1 value affords it power and infiu-
ence not otherwise to be acquired.
Not only have the changes imn1e-
diate1y affecting the business side OF
journalism been conducive to indie
pendence, but the trend of public SEN
timent has also perverted it. Owing
to the operation of journalism and
other educational forces the American
public has become, to remarkable de-
gree, a reading and thinking people.
The two forces have inter-acted with
the result that journalism can afford
to be independent, because OF the as
surance of support, and the people IN
their turn approve independent journal
ism because it affords them better op-
.portunity to meet intelligently and
deal inte11igent1y with the questions
occ1nvir1o +11e public mind.
AS a consequence the independent
journal is the journal that is
making the greatest Roadway
today. It is not co1orless, but
it is not a thick and thin, dyed in
the wool, party organ. It asserts its
individuality, insists upon it's right to
hold an honest opinion, of whatever
political shade, accepts dictation from
no party or faction, and urges for all
the privilege it demands for itself of
bringing the light of reason squarely
to bear on facts ungarb1ed and un-
tinctured by prejudice. It may be, IN
it's policies, Republican or Democratic.
It may have so consistently found it
the part of wisdom to accept the tenets
and support the claims of one or the
other as to have acquired the distiuc-
ton CT Republican or Democrat, but it
is not among those whose motto is
''my party, right or wrong, my party"
It is the journal of the greatest inf1u-
ence and the journal whose influence
is productive of the greatest good.

POLICE COURT


Judge Feagin opened court promptly at S:30 yesterday morning with full docket but he was not long in running through with most of the cases, as he stated when asked 10 continue a case on some petty ex- cuse, that he was mot continuing cases, but trying them,' and he proceeded to dis pose of them very rapidly. Many plead guilty and their fines were assessed.
 Harry Hill a negro boy, who was charg- ed with running over a little white girl with a bicycle, was found guilty and fined $25 and thirty days on the streets.
 A case was called against Brock a sa- loon keeper. for selling whiskey on Sun day. This not being the first time Brock had been charged with the same offense his fine was fixed at $100, and he was told by his honor that the matter would be put before the mayor and aldermen, who would likely revoke his license.
 The case of Carrie Green who was ar rested on Sunday for selling whisky, was next called and after the witnesses had testified the judge said: Carrie, I'll just make your fine $50. If you were a man I'd make it $1OO"
 Next"
 Charles Wilson responded and the judge said:
 Charles, what have you got to say about the charge against you of stealing three dollars from Perry Booth in the cell?'
 T never got dat niggars money, jedge," was the reply, but the evidence of several witnesses went to show that he did and he was accordingly fined $1O0 and 100 days. in addition to a thirty days sentence he was already serving
 The next case called was based upon the following alleged facts: While w. H. White was quietly taking a nap under a tree, he said that Sam Henderson, another negro, stole his coat from under his head He was not aroused from his slumber, but Sam was aroused to the tune of a $50 fine and sixty days on the streets
