Rcy Sam Jones who has made
something of sensation as a pulpit
orator or singer of slang has been
learning some facts regarding politi-
cal sentiment In the south, and as
hc Is southcrncr himself, is un-
doubtcdly qualified To speak for that
section 1t appears that the Panama
canal question is easily the para
mount issue down there and he is
authority for the statement that "thc
south would rather have the canal
than score of democratic prcsi-
dents" Tho reverend gentleman may
be probably Joking. The impression
up north Is that the solid south y
would never break ON any important
question: that what it wants Is demo
Gratis in ollicc regardless Of any other
consideration ON earth in the waters
under the earth or the heavens above.
The party name is the thing; men
and measures are minor details. The
Rev Mr. Jones clinChcs his argu-
mcnt, quite positively with the fol.
lowing: Really the business inter.
Csts Of this country are opposed to
democratic victory anyway Demo.
Gratis seem to have sense enough to
run statos and cities, but the national
government sccems to be too big for
them to run, Texas, like all the
southern states, wants the canal, and
If the democrats want to act the fooI
again, let them mako this an issue

Norfolk, Omaha, Lincoln and
Grand Island are evidently considered
the live towns of the state by the Ne

in these that new switchboards and
the automatic service is being in

If the north pole doesn't keep it's
temperature closer to home, the peo-
pie of the country will favor building
a Chinese wall about it and weighing
it down with balls and chains. North
Dakota and Minnesota are conceded
to be the legitimate play grounds of
Boreas, but he is out of limits when
he strays through South Dakota and

The way in which the senators are
lining up in support of the admins
tration's policy regarding the recog-
milton of the republic of Panama and
the movement that has been made
toward the construction of the canal
would make it appear that the oppo-
sition would be in very small mi
nority and would be compelled to
place their brick in the wheels of
progress in n mighty SMALL way.
Senator German is taking a bold
stand, but evidently wishes that he
was out of it, and he is not at all
confident that his following will be
anything like unanimous on his side
of the chamber.

The Columbus Telegram, in giving
a reason for Wall streets desire to
dictate the policy and candidates of
the democratic party, says it is be-
cause of President Roosevelt's talk
against the trusts and not for any
thing he has done against the inter
ests of the great capitalists. This is
the first time it was ever intimated
that Wall street was afraid of talk.
The adoption of antitrust planks in
the platforms of either or ALL parties
has never brought a protest, the poll
ticians and stump speakers have been
permitted unlimited freedom in as
sailing the trusts. Presidential mes
sages have been acceptable that have
threshed the matter up one side and
down the other without sparing the
feelings of the men who control the
country, but, regardless of the Tele-
grams explanation, they have never
been aroused into active opposition
until President Roosevelt began do
ing things. When Mr.. Roosevelt
came into power he somehow brought
the conviction that party platforms
were made to govern the action of the
party in power; that a president was
supposed to stand back of his mes
sage to congress and see to it that
the sentiment therein expressed is
abided by as far as possible; that
laws adopted by congress were made
TO be enforced, and that the people
who spoke for the curbing of the
trusts were really anxious that they
should be curbed. Perhaps he might
have done more, but the fact that
Wall street wants him retired is evil
denCe that he has done something,
and if he has the support of the peo-
| pie as evidenced by the votes this fall
he will undoubtedly do a great deal
more. He has been hampered by the
| trusts, but with the laws and the peo.
pie and the government back of him
he will win out if given time, and
that is what should be given by the
people if they are sincere that they,
rather, than the money influences
should rule.

AS an essential toward promoting
Norfolk as the metropolis of north
Nebraska the commercial club
should become active in its endeavors
to secure as many district and state
meetings as can be obtained No city
is better located for the convenience
of delegates, and none has better ia
cilties for their entertainment in this
part of the state than has Norfolk
This city has cared for the conven-
tions that have come this way, and
the delegates have been satisfied with
the entertainment and attention they
have received, but no concerted effort
has been made for some time toward
inducing the associations and organi-
cations to meet here as has been
done by other cities of the state that
are awake to the benefits such meet
ings bring with them, and have rep
resentatives at the conventions in
their interest. Norfolk should GER
tainly make it a point to secure all
the district meetings for this part of
state meetings frequently. Such
meetings bring people in and they
get acquainted and want to come
again.

The Columbus Telegram has issued
II note of warning to the honest demo
Gratis in which is disclosed the desire
of Wall street to have the party nom.
mate man who will be Il safe one
for the trusts, with the assurance that
the capitalists will help elect him.
The Telegram admits that the promise
of success is very tempting to the
members of the party, but is of the
opinion that the party cannot afford
to sacrifice its principles nor can it
stand the "shock of success at the
polls" The Telegrams warning is
sensible and timely. That party can
no more afford to have its candidatac
elected by Wall street than the re.
publican party can afford to have
Roosevelt turned down by the same
influence and another candidate sub.
stituted. The people are determined
to give very close consideration to
the desires of Wall street during the
coming contest and are practically
certain to vote for the man that the
capitalists least desire in the eXecu-
tive chair. 1t is to be conceded that
the Wall street influence is greatly in
clined to help the democrats. The
! lack of candidate and the lack of
| principles that are acceptable to all
interests in the party, will make it
easy for Wall street to supply both,
and by the liberal use of money make
them acceptable to the leaders, but
the question of whether or not they
can buy the rank and file of the rac-
ty, any more than they can dictate 20
mains to be determined. The repub-
licans have by popular vote chosen
their candidate and it is the desire
that the platform on which he will
make the race shall not be favorable
to the trusts, but shall be of such a
character as their executive can en-,
force without the aid or consent of
the millionaires. Therefore to gain
the ascendency in the republican par.
ty it would not only be necessary to
turn the popular candidate down, but
to adopt a platform that would not
harmonic with the previous plat
forms of the party. This would be
too BADLY apparent to the people
With the democratic party it is differ
ent, The chaos that exists could be
moulded to the purpose of Wall street
without exciting undue suspicion, and
the silence of the editors and the lead
ers on trust questions leads to the
supposition that the party is about
with the prospect of winning one elec
ton, but forever thereafter being dis
credited by the people who are op
posed TO the dictation of the trust
leaders. The trust captains may have
found the republican party valuable
aid to them in the past, but it is evi
dent that their hopes are just now cen
tered in the democratic party and 4
they cannot swing that party to theil
way of thinking they may be com

Mr., Clcycand's concession that Mr.
Bryan is occupying the center of the
democratic stage may well be calcu-
lated to give the impression that the
movement of the rcorganizcrs to
whom is accredited the Tammany vic
tory of last spring is not as permcat-
ing and all pcrvading Of the democrat
ic fabric as the impression given out
earlier in the campaign. Then the
mistake of German in leading the
democrats up against the canal propo-
sition is another hard blow to those
who would toss the late leader
through the transom when the con
vcntion finally comes.

The announcement of Chicago
homeopathic doctors that consump-
tion is durable may be sneered at by
some of the old school physicians
who have held that there is no yre
for the disease, and there will sic a
large number of believers in alQpathic
treatment who will join with them in
scouting the idea, but ther' will be
some to believe the statement. From
the treatment proposed it is evident
that if they can cure the disease, the
homeopaths have more confidence in
the latest theory of giving nature a
chance than they have in medical
treatment. DR.. Blackwood is quoted
as saying: Keep the windows open,
allowing of FREE circulation of air.
Avoid all cough syrups. The greatest
amount of nutrition with the least
amount of expenditure in it's elabora-
tion should be the selection of a diet
in these cases. Milk, eggs and fresh
vegetables and fruits should form a

The World-Herald and Chancellor
Andrews are just now trying to crowd
other state notables and questions of
public interest to the rear of the stage
with their controversy regarding the
Rockefeller offer of n memorial to
the state university. The controversy
appears to be getting rather personal
as far as the World-Herald is con
cerned, and really there is not enough
in the question to draw the interest
of the people toward one side or the
other, in any marked degree. If the
university of Nebraska does not wish
the Standard Oil magnate's generosity,
there are other college managements
that will be glad of such a donation,
and if the contribution is not received
the university will probably prosper
just as we'll as though it had re-
ceived the contribution, so with or
without, the university will exist, and
the people will be just as happy as
though Mr.. Rockefeller had showered
his entire wealth on the institution.

The Chicago Coroner's jury has bit
ten off quite n large chunk, it would
appear, in charging eight persons
with responsibility for the Iroquois
tragedy, including the mayor of the
city. If the city administration has
been negligent in that one particular
it is evident that other city admins
tratons have been equally Culpable,
because of the numerous cases of ne
glcct of the laws that have been dis
closed in other theatres that have
been closed since the fire. The coro-
nor's jury has therefore gone too far
or not far enough. 1t is a fault in
Chicago as we'll as in other cities that
the laws are not as rigidly enforced
as they should be until after some
terrible calamity has called attention
to the neglect, and if, after the Iro-
Quoi disaster others should follow
from the same delinquency nothing
should prevent the rigid eXaction of
penalty for such neglect.
