BRYAN'S VIEW OF JOHNSON.


While Mr.. Bryan, himself, has thus
far consented to offer no public word
conveying his views of Governor John
A. Johnson of Minnesota, a word has
just been uttered by Jim Manahan
which is significant because of Mana
hans intimacy with Bryan. And there
is additional interest attached to the
statement because of the fact that
Manahan formerly was Lincoln man
and is now a Minnesota man.
UP in Minnesota the Johnson boom
has been seriously nursed for some
months. Minnesota papers, democratic
and republican, have been persistently
playing up the Johnson boom as if
they really thought that he would be
elected president. They have made
1t matter of state pride, the republi,
can papers freely boosting the COVER
nor because, If for no other reason,
Minnesota has never had a place on a
presidential ticket
But now comes Manahan and takes
poke at that state pride idea. He
says that president making is serious
business and ought to be conducted
upon the merits of the men and what
they stand for State pride sentiment,
he thinks, ought not to cut any figure.
Coming from Manahan, Bryan's
friend, and just after Manahan had
made a visit to Lincoln. this statement
may reasonably be taken as at least

FAT COIONELS
ject.


The fiat colonel question has call
ed forth an official horse report from
Major General Bell, chief Of staff
It's object is apparently to bolster up
in public opinion the riding tests order
ed by President Roosevelt, which
have served to show how pitifully
fat and wheezy some of the American
field officers are. In his letter request
field officers are. In his letter request
red to press comments, which, in his
opinion, indicate that at least some
editors of the country do not know
what tough time European officers
have to hold their jobs. And so the
president asked General Bell to throw
light on the situation.
In the letter transmitting the report
to congress, President Roosevelt takes
a little curse from the American Off
GERS who have been showed under by
the riding order He says that the
horses of our army are not as good as
the horses used in European armies
and that American officers have little
chance to practice riding until they
reach the grade of field officers. In
European armies infantry captains are
mounted, and the president wants sim
liar legislation in this country. He
also wants congress to enact legisla-
ton to provide better horses. He says
that they ought to be bought when
young, and given a thorough training
of about year at special stations.
The Germans, says General Bells re-
port, have a bone mill" test. They
so name it because of the number of
bones that are broken. From the gen.
erals description, it's a safe bet that
the bone mill" is infinitely worse than
football, and no one in this country
ever heard of a fat desk general even
hitting the line with the pigskin. The
"Deutsch" officers must go through the
mill in order to get an active command.
When the time comes that the seniority
of a cavalry major naturally entities
him to command, he is ordered to re-
port at Hanover for the drag hunts
otherwise the bone mill') the fol-
lowing June. About eighteen of them
turn up for the supreme test every
year, and they have to stay right by it
for six weeks, with three hunts a week
At first the hunt is only for four or five
miles, but along toward the end the
officers go fifteen or eighteen miles.
The general in command picks out a
tough country to ride over.
The officers with paunches and with
out, are whirled at breakneck speed
over big fences, through bitches and
marshes and over the most slippery
kind of ground Every once in a while
a horse will go down, spilling it's rider
and giving him a worse bump than the
hardest football hero gets on Thanks
giving Day. The rest of them don't
even give him a passing glance. Only
the surgeon stops to patch up his
bones. If these cavalry majors do
not ride to the complete satisfaction
of the commanding general, they get
no command, but are sidetracked to
the fighting of pasteboard battles at
the war department, or are retired
absolutely.

TRADE PROMOTERS.

At the annual meeting of the Com
mercial club the other night 1T was
declared by one prominent business
man that the organization OF the Trade
Promoters association has been one
of the most important undertakings
on record in the retail career OF Nor
folk. All seemed to agree that good
results had been obtained both for
Norfolk and the northwest.
1t is an undenied fact that this Or
ganization, bringing the merchants
together in a common interest, has
aided greatly in uniting the city's
strength toward a fitting development
of its retail possibilities.
Norfolk's growth means growth for
the whole northwest. People through
out this region are just as much in
terested in the growth of Norfolk as
they are in the development of their
own immediate territories, for they re-
alize that the development of Nor
folk means the development of this
whole region.
1t is natural enough that people OF
northern Nebraska and southern South
Dakota prefer to build up a city of
their own in their midst, to building
up one many miles away from home
TO Norfolk rather than to Omaha.
The new northwest is a mighty ter
ritory. It's vastness is beyond the
conception of any man who has not
travelled over the country. Hundreds

less leader. And in this respect II
may be taken as release order from
Bryan to Nebraska, freeing any Ne.
braskan from supporting the silver
tongued orator of the Platte for the
simple reason that he is a Nebrask-
an.
There is confidence In Manahan's
utterance that Bryan will be nomin.
ated, but there is also expressed an
undercurrent Of fear that Johnson may
develop strength. Johnson is going to
win II he can, Manahan says.
And Manahan's objection to John.
son is important political news. John.
son, he says, is a machine man, own.
ed body and soul by the trusts and
supported by the Interests" for that
reason. So this may be taken as
Bryan's attitude toward the Minnesota
rival.
Manahan's statement is interesting
reading for those who have been
watching Johnson's balloon. In part
he says:
81 believe that Governor Johnson Is
candidate for the presidency and
that he has the support OF the'system'
in his effort to land the nomination.
Il deprecate the idea OF standing
for a man as compliment to the man.
deprecate the idea Of state pride in
national affairs. The selection OF a
ciples involved and the candidates At.
president is serious business. The prin-
ness for the Office, and nothing else, is
worthy of consideration.
IF the democrats in this state be.
lieve in the progressive principles Of
democracy as represented by Bryan,
then they should stand by him. If our
democracy in this state believes in
trimming to please the corporate inter
ests, then it should stand for candi-
date selected by the corporate interests
because that is the only way you can
please them.
"The booming of Governor johnson
by the New York World, Jim Hill,
Roger Sullivan and the corporation
democrats Of Minnesota places a very
heavy responsibility upon him right
now, because in political affairs men
have a right to judge a candidate by
his most ardent and forcefu sup
porters.
"The system is supporting Governor
Johnson. His interview in the New
York World encourages that support.
whether he so designed it or not,
There is not statement in it that
could alarm the trusts. He makes
tariff reform the paramount issue, in
general statement, the same as every
other political party will likely make
it, He does not say, as Mr.. Bryan
does, that the tariff should be so re-
formed that articles controlled by the
trusts should be placed upon the free
etSS ohu SAaI IhC ldlSGI
should be made upon the necessaries
of life.
"The railroads are undoubtedly sat
isfied with the position taken by the
governor in that interview, and while
this may add an element of strength
to his candidacy, it does not commend
itself to those who are in earnest in
the matter Of compelling the railroads
to treat the public fairly.
II believe that Governor Johnson
is a candidate for the presidency IL
possible. believe also that the rank
and file of the democratic party of
Minnesota will never accept him as
their candidate, unless he is able to
free himself from the burden Of Jim
Hills support"

THE OLD YEAR AND THE NEWS

In the year that has just ended, The
News carried many more columns OF
advertising than ever before In Its
history. And the circulation OF the pa
per also was very greatly increased.
Where four carrier boys In Norfolk
used to serve, nine are now required
TO distribute the paper to Norfolk
homes every night. And the circula-
ton In the farm territory around Nor
folk was so much increased that today
practically every farm home within
radius OF ten miles around Norfolk has
The News every day.
In all this steady advance there has
been no special effort except the con-
tinous endeavor to produce a news
paper worthy OF The News splendid
constituency. This has been the an.
mated purpose Of this paper always
and It never has hesitated to turn Its
increasing revenues into increased
expense and improvements, confident
always that intelligent expenditures
would have prompt and generous re-
cognition.
by this stimulating mutually OF
interest The News has reached a proud
and important place in western jour
nalism, and the people Of Norfolk and
the new northwest have built up for
themselves newspaper which, devot-
ed to their interests unfailingly, gives
them the greatest newspaper in the
world today issued In city Norfolk's
size.
