ing chance, as Senator Bate will make
an effort to secure consideration of the
bill during the coming week. That be
can succeed, do not feel as confident
as do Messrs. Rodney, Flynn and
Smith, the territorial delegates. A
story, which is interesting, if true, is
circulating at the Capitol. 1t is to the
effect that Delegate Flynn was ap-
preached by Senator Beverage, chair
man of the Committee on Territories,
with proposition to change the name
of Oklahoma to "Beveridge" and that
Mr.. Flynn's refusal to do so resulted in
the defeat of the measure in Mr.. Beve-
ridges committee.
On Thursday the House took up the
Philippine bill and an earnest debate
is being conducted by both sides. It
now appears that the House will insist
upon the Senate's concurring in the
adoption of the measure reported by
the House committee on Insular At
fairs. This measure grants certain
form Of self government to the Fill
pinos and, although imperialistic in
its purport, is shade better than the
bill passed by the Senate. The House
will vigorously fight the
adoption of the silver standard in the
Islands. According to republican ten
,ts gold standard is the only proper |
standard for any nation and the adop-
ion of silver standard for the Phi
ippines will be an absolute stultifica-
ion of republican dogma. The anxiety
i the members to adjourn will be in
avor of the Senate conferees but nu-
aerous republican members have as
ured me that would not prove suffici-
MT to induce them to yield. Only a
eadlock on the bill will prevent ad.

Well, as to land in this country it is

Government land is about all taken

as good land as is to be found in this

Hon. S. b. Wadsworth, of Council
Bluffs, democratic candidate tor Judge
in this district, was in the city Tues
day calling on the vot-rs and looking
after his political fences. There is q
widespread sentiment throughout the
district in favor OF the election of q
democratic judge on account of the ar
bitrary rulings of certain judges and
the conviction among lawyers that the
judiciary of the district, with the poss-
ible exception of one or two judges. has
formed itself into q political machine.
Mr.. Wadsworth is a man of high char
acter, of unlmpeachable honesty, stands
high in his profession, and enjoys q
wide acquaintance over the entire dis
trict. Being the only candidate for
judge on the democratic ticket, which
lnsures the election of at least two of
the republican candidates, republicans
should find it easy to vote for him and
democrats should vote for him to q
man. Atlantic Democrat.

lower prices; some even predicting as
low as Goo, but much to their surprise
and in line with our advice. wheat has
been advancing with but very little
backset, and we are still of the opinion
that it is only question of a little
time when wheat bought at these
prices will make the buyer money 1t
is still possible that the movement
from the extreme Northwest and
Northwest, will cut the price for a
short time, but we are not going to
have the surplus expected. The Com

and 100000 are used for seed, leav-

of the way.
