REASON FOR DEADLOCK.

Tien Tsin, Feb. 15-It is asserted
here that the real reason for the dead
lock in Pekin is a difference between
the ENJOYS and military authorities,
the former favoring withdrawal of the
troops to Tien Tsin, and the latter
urging n forward movement. It is
regarded as possible that a certain
power may advance independe ntly,
should the deadlock continue.

Test Case Appealed.

The right Of Colorado live stock
inspectors to inspect cattle at the
state line and charge a fee for the
same is the point involved in a test
suit which was appealed to the SUI
preme court from the district court.
OF Arapahoe county, says an ex-
chenge. If the present law is sus-
tanned Ed. Fl. Reed will have to
spend six months in the county jail
for rushing a train load Of cattle
across Athe state line, a sentence
which was imposed upon him by the
district court judge when the case
was tried there several months ago.
The case is the most important
one to the stockmen OF the west and
south that has been appealed to the
supreme coart IN many years.
Reed rushed his cattle through
without an inspection for the pur-
pose Of testing the law, The big
cattlemen Of the south and west are
behind him. # the present state
law is sustained there is a possibil
ity that the case may be taken into
the federal court, and finally appeal
ed to the United States supreme
court.

ISSUES %FoRIso4.

Nebraskan stood for right princi-
pies We believe he yet stands
for principles equally as righteous
as he did then, and he can proper
ly be placed among the foremost
and most profound thinkers of
modern time--a man who possess
es that "by the eternal Esprit, who
knows no defeat. who eve lodges
a duty and who is fearlessly out
spoken in the advocacy of those
ideas which he believes to be best
for himself and his cCuntrymen.
Such a man is Bryan, and no true
man who stood loyalty by him in
the past two campaigns has ever
had reason to regret it.
But according to the press dis
patches-which do not always tell
the absolute truth-Mr. Bryan's
idea is hat the campaign of 1904
should be fought out on the ques-
tons of imperialism and Philippine
independence. The UNION is
frank to state that it hopes for no
such issues as the basis for the
next campaign, and this hope is
based on several reasons. First,
the issue of imperialism is too re-
mote and too unreal to form a
basis for a presidential campaign,
as it was in 1900. While national
affairs may have at times seemed
to point slightly in that direc ton,
le H... ,
the question of imperialism is
practically unreal. 1t dpes not
appeal: to the Individual voter, nor
has its most eloquent discussion
seemed to alarm him to any great
extent. Few if any, of our people
sincerely believe that this nation
is approaching monarchy, or that
lit will ultimately embrace monar-
chial ideas or the monarchial for m
of government. Should such a
change be attempted it would
meet a humiliating defeat at the
hands Of the people. True, the
nation seems to have wandered
from the old and safely-tested
paths of the past, but times and
conditions have changed and the
people seem to have endorsed the
more modern policies.
AS to the question Of Philippine
independ ence, it is not Of suficien,
importance to form the basis of {
successful campaign, even wher
coupled with the issue Of imperial
ism. The American people have
signifed their desire and intention
of holding the Philippines and
governing them. This they will
do. It is a policy they have &C
cepted and adopted. THE UN1or
opposed this colonial policy at its
inception, and it still believes it t
q doctrine fraught with immense
cost and disaster. But to oppose
it would be like a man butting his
head against a stone wall-tnt
wall will still be standing when The
poor fellows brains are spat,eree
over it from the buttiag process.
The best way 70 get the people
e correct Their own mistakes is to
give them precisely what they vote
for. They want expansion and !
eoionial policy, with all their: al.
tending evils. lie. them have il.

Bryan il 1896 and 1900 can ge,

dinner given last evening at Turner

governor was heartily received as he
arose to speak, and said in part:
THE American love of liberty and
guaranty of justice, according to law,
will follow the flag, and intelligence
and truth will follow liberty and JUS
tice. We must not become intoxicated
with the prospect never SO bright as
now. We must exercise great conser-
vatism. Don't speculate; don't plunge.
1t is impossible for American people
to go slow, but it will not do to re-
move the bride. We must not court

had struck it lucky. That night he
neither ate nor slept on account OF
the excitement he was in. Next

Mr.. Bailey showed his find to Mr.
Howe, and told the latter he could
have it for 81 900. After much dick
