Candidacy Of
Norris Brown
1t Was Formally Launched
in Republican Mass
Meeting.

uCV"teSs
The following resolutions were
adopted by the Buffalo county
republicans at mass meeting
Wednesday of last week:
The republicans of Buffalo
county, the friends and neighbors
of Hon. Norris Brown, in mass
convention, assembled at Kear-
ney, Nebraska, February, 2Sth,
1906, observe with pride and
qualification the spontaneous eX-
pressions of public sentiment
which have reen made through
out the state in his favor for the
office of United States senator.
We take pleasure in testifying to
his sterling integrity and genuine
worth as a citizen and his ability
and faithfulness as public
officer. Therefore be it
Resolved; That we hereby un-
qualifidedly endorse the official
acts of Attorney General Brown
and pledge him our unanimous
and loyal support in his candidacy
for the United States senate;
that we commend him as a man
faithful and conscientious in the
discharge of public duties, loyal
to the principles of the party he
represents and worthy of the con-
fdence and support of the people
of the state.
Hon. Norris Brown, whom the
people of Buffalo county have an
nounced as candidate for United
States Senator, is familiar
character in Nebraska where his
ability as lawyer is known and
where his republican principles
have been fearlessly declared from
the rostrum.
He was born at Maquoketa,
Iowa, May ?, 1868, attended the
public schools, graduated from
the University of Iowa, studied
law and was admitted to the bar
in Iowa, October /, 1888. He
practised law at Perry, Iowa, un-
til April IS, 1888, when he moved
to Kearney, Nebraska, where he
has since resided and practiced
law. In 1885 he married Lucille
H. Beeler, and has two daughters
in the Lincoln High School. In
1898 he ran for Congress against
Congressman Greene, and in
series of joint debates with that
accomplished orator attracted at
tention as public speaker.
Mr.. Brown was county attorney
of Buffalo county for two terms,
and deputy attorney general for
four years. In single year as
attorney general he defeated two
great railway corporations in the
federal court and saved the state
over $500, 900 in taxes; crushed
the Nebraska grain trust in
suit in the supreme court, thus
securing the only competition
among grain dealers in Nebraska
since 1896, and saving the farm
ers at least two cents a bushel on
all grain sold, amounting to more
than 100000 in year, tri-
umphed in case in the supreme
court requiring foreign insurance
companies to pay into the state
treasury reciprocal taxes amount
ing to S37, 900; and defeated the
suit brought by the sugar trusts
to recover from the state $4,000
in bounties.
Norris Brown is an ideal can
didate-brave, gifted, genial, up
right, an untiring worker, and a
staunch republican. In all re-
lations of life, both public and
private, no breath of scandal has
ever been attached to his name.

The householder with regard for his own
standing in the neighborhood and for the
comfort and health of others busted him
self early this morning in cleaning or hay
ing cleaned his sidewalk in season to per-
init its use by pedestrians. To be sure, the
law requiring the cleaning of walks after
a snow fall is imperative. But at the same
time there has been no change in the moral
duty of the citizen In the premises. There
was this morning a double reason for an
early cleaning of the walks. The snow
had been rendered slushy by the rain which
succeeded 1t, and there was an imminent
danger of a pronounced drop in the tenn
perature, which would freeze the slush into
solid Ice. 1t would then require hard labor
or a pronounced thaw to restore the
walks to decent condition. Too many
householders trust to the sun and rain to
do their cleaning work for them. In the
month Of February this is an unsafe re-
lance, and on general principles 1t is not
the part of good citizenship.

A Revolutionary Spirit in Venezuela

\ dispatch from Williamstad. Curacao.
today. sets forth a travellers account OF
the condition of affairs in Venezuela on the
eve of the expected French demonstration
against the government of Castro. Ac-
cording 10 this version the Venezuelans are
thoroughly dissatisfied with the rule of
the executive who has brought so much
trouble to their country through his stiff
necked Obstinacy to the powers. The trav-
eler goes so far as to predict that as
soon as the French begin til 1ir demonstra-
tion the people will rise against Castros
The troops. he says, will desert their coll
ors. The country is ripe for revolution
and the determination of France to force
an issue with Castro is welcomed as af-
fording an opportunity for an overturn.
This is singularly good news. IL reliable.
The world is In need OF Castro's suppress
sion. and 1t win serve the purposes of
peace for the present to have the change
worked from within Venezuela. 1t Is not
in the province of the foreign powers to
dictate TO the venezuelans who shall rule
them 1t Is their right TO protest against
the obstreperons. wrongful actions of the
Metropolitan executive. as several have all
ready done. The vcneEueians alone. how
lever, can interfere with castro,s rule.

The police have heard from several of the

several of the housewives of Washington

opened his conversation in a manner cal

asking the woman If she was married. She
replied that she had no husband. but vol

Thereupon the man informed her that this

The Senate and the Railroads.

Seven votes In the negative, and all repub-
lean The minority is small, but 1t I'M
questionably represents three qualities
which all respect-brains, character and
courage All seven men had opportunity
to express their views, did so at length, and
two of them. Mr. Mccall and Mr.. Little
field. contributed brilliantly to the debate.
1t is to be doubted, indeed. If that side OF
the rate-making question contains any i'm
portant point not covered by the House
opposition.
On the other side we find not only these
same qualities, but numbers. Both parties
rose to the opportunity New members and
old members; leaders and followers; Will
Jams cheering on the democrats with the
cry that the republicans were stealing their
thunder and Payne cheering on the repub-
leans with the retort that the democrats
might go to thunder and that it was the
duty of the republicans to respond in this
matter not only to the recommendations of
the President. but to the clearly ascertained
and widely advertised sentiment of the
cOuntry-all went on record for the BILL 1t
was in every way q remarkable response to
a public appeal for remedy to cure a
confessed evil.
What effect will this vote have on the
Senate? We are told by some that the
fight has but just begun; that the House
demonstration was largely q play to- the
galleries; that the House desired the bill
made in the Senate and so sent it over in
condition affording grounds for wrangle and
change: that members had In view more
their campaigns for reelection next fall
than the country's relief from extortionate
railroad rates.
We need not pay any too much attention

Itch has been undeniably disastrous to

which has been undeniably disastrous to
the country.
The Wiiliamstad dispatch contains other
interesting information. The American
minister has become persona non grata be-
cause of the attitude of the United States
toward France In this latest enlbroglio and
may soon be given his passports This Is
more doubtful than the story about the
resolution of the Venezuelans to revolt
against Castro. 1t Is difficult to believe,
even of Castro, that he would make such a
deplorable blunder as to declare Minister
Russell impossible for carrying out his
instructions from Washington. That would
be direct slap at the United States and
would give this country reason to sever
all diplomatic relations at once and to
demand apologies.
Another statement in the travellers tale
suggests that the dictator-president is run
ming things with a high hand The editor
OF a newspaper who ventured to criticise
the policy of the administration has been
jailed and his publication stopped. This
sort of conduct is calculated to fan the
flame of revolt. 1t Is thoroughly character
istic of Castro to pile one mistake upon
another. Heretofore he has managed to
wrfggle out of his difficulties unhurt, but
this may be the unlucky exception to the
rule

Andrew jackson, and others.

Mr.. Roosevelt's characterization of An
drew Jackson as an Ignorant man must be
taken, of course, relatively. 1t Is by no
means new, but was often heard in Jack
sons own time Many other writers of
reputation have so appraised him. Carl
Schurz in his admirable life of Henry Clay
sets Jackson down at that figure. He was
ignorant in comparison with the men with
whom he associated and commended in pub
lie life. We have only to recall the names
of few of them-Webster. Calhoun. Ben
ton and Quincy Adams. all men of learn
ing as well as political genius-to under
stand what Is meant when Jackson is de-
scribed ignorant. His elevation to the
presidency inaugurated an epoch in our
affairs. and caused many people to shake
their heads. His predecessors. with the
exception of Washington. had all been
men of learning, and now we had taken
hero I'm the rough for the first place.
William Henry Harrison and Zachary
Taylor suffered in the same way by COM
parson with the learned men of the politi-
cal world whom they had passed in the
race for the White House. Harrison had
more education than either Jackson or
Taylor, but held no place intellectually
among the statesmen of his day. Mr.. Web
ster's only appearance as humorist is in
a letter in which he describes the pruning
he had administered to Harrison's inaugu-
raj address before delivery. The old soldier
had made excessive and absurd use of his
historical reading. and Mr.. Webster--a
learned man-wisely and judiciously cut it
all out.
In our day Mr. Cleveland bowled out dem
ocrats like Bayard and Hendricks, Thur
man and Trumbull, for the leadership OF his
party. and Blaine and Harrison for the Of
fee of President When Mr.. Bayard and
Judge Thurman were carrying the banner
of the democracy in the Senate of the
United States against the leadership of
Conkling and Wade and Sherman and such
men. Mr.. Cleveland was sheriff Of Erie
county and mayor of Buffalo, New York.
They were great national figures when he
was unknown outside of his town and
county. He won his place, not by great
services or learning, but by small services
performed at an opportune time in piv-
otal state: and he will rank in history In
comparison with the men of his time from
the intellectual standpoint, as Jackson and
Harrison and Taylor do with the men of
theirs.
Jackson and Roosevelt are compared be-
cause of their challenge OF corporate
wealth. The former shackled the money

Taft and Wallace.

Engineer Wallace explains that Secre-
tary Taft at famous interview between
them did not almost curse" but almost
crushed" him. This will leave the public
still anxious on the subject, and maybe
an additional explanation is in order. In
a ''profane" mood-if he ever yields to
such a mood-the Secretary of War is
probably no more formidable than the
next man. But when in a crushing"
mood a man of his proportions must
arouse no little fear in the bosom Of the
other fellow. If there was anger, and the
Secretary stood up straight and looked
threatening, Mr.. Wallace must have had
a moment of extreme uneasiness. But, in
all probability, Mr.. Wallace was not in a
mood himself to appraise either words
or glances at their proper value. and got
things mixed. At any rate he was not
crushed and lives to tell an interesting,
