from its liver surpasses all other

THE INJUNCTION.

The Injunction petition says that
hundreds OF lives will be endangered,
though II Ia not just clear why they
will be more endangered with depot
than without. In fact II the depot is
90 bd built It would seem that lives
would he protected by closing the
street II two buildings were built.
for instance. one on each side or the
street hundreds OF teamsters would
be endangered In driving through,
with no warning OF trains. And the
school children, as Is shown by the
plan, can just as well walk through
the depot AZ they can now across the
unsheltered tracks.
II is too bad to delay Improvement
In Norfolk over such matter as this.
II is to be regretted that an injunc-
ton has been issued against the pass
ing by the city council and mayor OF
the proposed ordinance to vacate n
portion OF Philip avenue, for depot
purposes. This will cause n lot OF
delay and expense. when as matter
OF fact the ordinance, for the best In
terests OF the city, ought to be passed.
The Northwestern road has offered
to build $4,000 depot provided a
portion OF the street is closed, The
injunction says that the railroad
doesn't need the street closed and
merely wants II done to allow switch
ing without breaking trains. 1t can
probably be easily shown, when the
plans arrive for the new depot, that
the ground Is actually needed for the
depot, because there isn't enough
space on the present site to construct
a large building.

THE SENATORSHIP.

Perhaps the most Objectionable fea
ture OF the candidacy OF Norris Brown
for United States senator, Is the man
ner In which It is being conducted.
The state has before now been STAN
peded to candidate through the
means of a bureau OF publicity and
the same methods are being adopted
in the Brown campaign in hopes that
II will again be successful. This bu.
reau, which Is said to have at Its head
n man who in former years used his
talents on behalf OF the railroads but
Is now against them for personal rea-
sons, Is working overtime bringing
out the fact that Mr.. Brown has pros
ecuted the grain trust. Has 1t come
to such a pass in Nebraska that he
cause state officer performs his sim
Pile duty, does those things which are
clearly laid down by law for him to
do, that the people are under obliga-
tions TO elect him to the highest office
within the gift Of the people? II So
then there will not be senatorships
enough to go round, because other
state officers have performed the du-
ties as conscientiously and rs honest.
ly as he. That he has made an eXcep-
tionally able attorney general Is true,
that he has had the manhood to stand
up for the people in the grain cases Is
conceded, but we really fail to see
why that constitutes sufficient ground
to stampede to him for the senator.
ship. Instead of placing the people
under obligations to him, he has sim
ply done the duty that he was elected
to do and has but repaid the people
for trusting him. The grand stand is
n great factor in later day politics and
II is evident that the bureau which is
managing Mr.. Browns campaign pro
poses to make the most of the oppor-
tunity, If we want man to repre-
sent us in the United States senate
because he Is opposed to corporations
and trusts we would naturally and
rightly favor man who has stood on
that platform in Nebraska for the past
thirty years, who has been consistent
and persistent along that line, one
who is ,eminently and far above
anyone else in the state on the plat.
form upon which Mr.. Brown now
stands, and that is none other than
Hon. E. Rosowater of Omaha. If n
senator Is to be elected on n platform
which contomplates only the one idea
of anti-incorporation, then by all
means Mr., Rosewater is entitled to
the votes of the people.
