Fanatics Not D1sorderlx.

WINNIPEG, Man, Oct. 3O.-The
Doukhobor fanatics are encamped in
the vicinity of Yorktown. Nothing of
disorderly nature has yet occurred.
While the women and children of the
party spent the night in the shed, the
men sought the shelter of bluff. The
whole night was spent in religious ex-
ercises. They seem determined to CON
tinue and expressed themselves thus
to Agent Speers, who pointedly told
them that they would not besallowed
to wander in such large numbers.
There is no danger of any trouble.

PANAMA CANAL CONCESSION.

Attorney General Knox has returned
cation respecting the title Of the Pan
anna Canal company, but he declined to
make public the result. There have
been reports to the effect that serious
obstacles were discovered to the pur-
chase by the United States of the rights
of the canal company. 1t was said
that one difficulty is the fact that the
original concession was extended by the
executive Of Colombia without the en-
dorsement of the Colombian congress,
but it appears that the executive had
constitutional authority for this action.
Another thing reported to have been
discovered by the attorney general is
that the revolutionists in Colombia have
warned the Panama company that If
they secure control of the government
as it now appears probable they may
they will repudiate the extension of
the canal concession. That might Gre
ate a disagreeable situation.
There may be no substantial founda-
ton for these reports and It is not
worth while to attach any Importance
to them. The investigation made by
the officials Of the Department of jus
tice, it is the understanding, had refer
ence entirely to the right of the Panama
Canal company to dispose of it's prop
erty and franchise free of French III
cumbrances, and not to the relations
between the company and the Colombian
government. There will probably be ne
definite information as to the result OF
the investigation until Attorney General
Knox makes his report to the president
which may not be done for several
weeks.

EXCLUDING AMERICAN PRODUCTS

There continues to be more or less
discussion abroad of the question of
excluding American products, but no
one has yet proposed any practicable
method OF doing this. In a recent ad-
dress Mr.. Austin. chief of the Bureau
Of Statistics, said that the fact that
Europe took in the latest year for
which the detailed statistics are avail
able more than one-half the exporta-
tion of manufactures from the United
lean manufacturers can hold their
own in the worlds markets and also in
dicates that the often-repeated sugges-
tions of European exclusion of Amer
lean products have not been justified
by developments up to the present time.
In the opinion OF Mr.. Austin, COM
binations or concerted movements for
the exclusion of our products from the
worlds markets seem improbable. He
points out that the exclusion from the
great markets of the world of the prod.
uets of a country which supplies so
large a proportion Of the consumption
of those markets would have the effect
of advancing prices of those articles
in other parts Of the world, and thus
the effort to exclude American products
would compel the nation excluding them
to pay higher prices for those products
when obtained elsewhere. European
economists, particularly in Germany
where the sentiment for exclusion II
strongest, have urged that the inevita
BILE effect of shutting out the products
of this country would be to raise the
prices OF such products abroad and un
der existing conditions this would b,
a very serious matter for large ma
jority of European consumers. In mos
of Europe the situation Of the working
classes at present is bad and a policy
that would increase the cost OF living
would cause widespread distress.

THE REPUBLICAN coUNTT TICKET

The ticket placed in nomination by
the republican county convention, al
though representing the minority Of the
party, is in the main made up Of men
well qualified for the positions to which
they aspire. While no candidate on the
legislative ticket can boast of expe-
rience as a lawmaker, nearly all of them
have a general knowledge of the duties
deyolving upon legislators and are well
equipped in other respects to deal with
issues that come before our lawmaking
body.
OF the three candidates for the senate,
Matthew A. Hall is an attorney in good
standing, who has been active in the
Ak -Sar-Ben and other organizations. r.
Il. Howell is a graduate Of the Annap-
oils Naval academy, has seen some
service in the navy and served as city
engineer of Omaha in the last mayoralty
term of w. ]. Broatch. Charles l..
Saunders has a legal education and
is familiar with legislative usage ac-
quired by residence at the national cap
ltal The only public position he has
filed is that Of deputy city treasurer,
in which capacity he rendered satisfac-
tory service.
Three Of the nine candidates for the
house, namely, Messrs. Morsman, Mel
son and Ten Eyck, are young attorneys.
Mr.. Ten Eyck was city prosecutor under
Mayor Broatch, while the others have
never occupied any official position.
Messrs. Koetter, Gilbert and Wallace
are mechanics, named to represent the
known and prominent live stock com
mission man. Mr.. Mangold a country
banker and merchant, and Mr.. Rigg
the editor of a country newspaper, the
Waterloo Gazette.
OF the two candidates for county com
missioner, Henry Mcdonald, for the
Fifth district, resides in the Sixth ward
and has served as deputy sheriff during
the incumbency Of his brother, John
> l'GDonald, now a business partner of
W, j. Broatch. Henry Denker, nom
mated for commissioner In the Third
district, Is one of the most successful
German-American farmers in the county,
who has been an active republican for
many years and is most favorably
known In the nelghborhood where be
resides, near Elkhorn station.
A. w. Jefferis, the candidate for
county attorney, is eminently qualified
for the position, having served as deputy
under County Attorney Howard II. Bal

MERCER IND HIS MACHINE.

Down with the machine" was the
battle-cry of Mercer and the corporation
mereenaries at the republican primaries
last Friday. up with the machine"
was the watchwOrd of Mercer and the
corporation henchmen at the county
they constructed was never seen In this
or any other county in Nebraska since
the overthrow of the Jay Gould regime
that ruled this city and state with an
iron hand twenty-five years ago.
The terrible Moores-Rosewater ma
chine, that has done service as a bug
bear in two or three campaigns, al
ways respected the right of every ward
and precinct delegation to name the
members to represent the republicans
Of their respective wards, or precincts,
on the committee, regardless Of fac
ton. The Mercer machine, In defiance
OF established usage and precedent
foisted upon the county committee men
who had been defeated at the polls in
Omaha, South Omaha and the country
precincts, thus overriding the viii Of
the republican voters as expressed
through the ballot box.
The horrible MOOres- -ROsewater ma
chine always endeavored in the division
Of representation on the ticket to recog-
nize the claims of the various sections
of the county to fair representation, as
well as to recognize the various nation
aIities that constitute the rank and fle
OF the party. The Mercer machine, on
the contrary, has deliberately disfran-
chised the 1900 republicans OF South
Omaha by refusing them any representa-
tion whatever on the ticket and by
apportiOning the entire senatorial dele
cation to which Douglas county is en-
| titled to the city of Omaha, when by
right and precedent South Omaha and
the country were entitled to at least
one Of the three senators.
The same purblind policy has been
pursued in regard TO the division OF the
| legislative ticket among a very large
portion of the following OF the party
and without which the party could not
possibly elect single candidate. The
manifest intent and purpose of Mercer
and his campaign manager is 20 organize
a solid phalanx for his own support
and deliberately to sacrifice all the rest
OF the ticket in his desperate attempt
to secure a reelection.

DEFENSE AGAINST HARD TIMES.
"In Time of Prosperity Prepare for
Adversity."
Portland Oregonisn.

Portland Oregonisn.
The Industrial conditions of the country
are such that no able-bodied, willing la
borer need be idle. The wage scale. from
skilled TO unskilled labor and at all inter-
mediate points, is, IL not satisfactory to
earners, as nearly so as Il can reasonably
be expected ever TO become. Simply stated.
work is plenty and wages are good. Ma
tions have learned by experience that It IS
wise in time of peace to prepare for war.
Have individuals learned the similarity i'm
portant lesson tersely conveyed by the
words, "In time Of prosperity prepare for
adversity?" Are the working people OF tho
country saving in just and wise proportion
to their earnings? 1t may we'll be feared
that they are not. The lesson OF the hard
times, so recent and so bitter, has. to all
appearance, been practically forgotten
and when the receding wave comes. and
come 1t surely will; when industrial de-
preston follows industrial activity as IL
has done in times past, and is at least
likely to do again, will the working people
be any better prepared for season Of en-
forced idleness or low wages than thew
were when in 1898 the doors Of thousands
OF workshops closed suddenly and did not
open to the laborer for many months?
1t Is well to be hopeful But IL is well
also to fortify hope with prudence, since
thereby its fruition may be to some ex-
tent insured. No man who maintains his
family, or even himself, alone by his labor
should live up to his earnings from week
to week Under the present scale of wages
this is not, except in extreme cases, neces-
sary, and certainly 1t is, generally speak
ing, most imprudent. extravaganza is the
bane Of prosperity as pinching economy is
the bitter portion of adversity Systematic
saving when work is plenty and wages are
good is the only insurance against hard
times" In the homes of labor. Thought
lessness incites to the one; misery waits
upon the other.
President Roosevelt has. during his tour
OF New England, said many brave and just
and some wise things. Matters OF national
and International interest, Of Industrial and
financial Importance have been tersely and
fearlessly treated. Is it too much to say
that his speech at Providence, in which
he took occasion to advise and even to
exhort the working people of the country
Csince wherever he speaks he speaks to the
entire country, to be thrifty as well as
industrious; to save as we'll as to earn; 10
use the weapons OF prosperity as a safe
defense against the stings Of adversely was
Of the widest significance of all TO the
American people? MANY people are inter
ested in the presidents utterances upon
the Cuban question and in his interpreta-
tion of the Monroe doctrine and the various
other topics upon which he has spoken
Yet, though these form an army Of multi
tude, they are few as compared with the
hosts Of labor. to whom this simple exhor-
tation to economy OF present aboundlng
resources was addressed. Wise will be the
workingmen who heed the presidents ad-
vice, thereby extending the blessings of
prosperity in perpetuity to themselves and
their families.
