While native cattle have suffered a SER

beeves has been in very satisfactory

sustained and with plenty OF competition
from feeder buyers the trade has been

A DISTINGUISHING Decision.

Judge Troup has responded favor
ably to the democratic demand that
the voting machines be used in Doug
las county in the impending election.
The democrats want the machines
used solely because they believe the
party lever will force many people to
vote the straight democratic ticket
against their Will and prevent them
from voting for the candidates OF their
choice. The ruling Of the court, there
fore, is a disfranchising decision. 1t
will make the result OF the election in
Douglas county, with the coercion, in
timidstion and Doodle of the brewery
democratic combine, represent the real
wishes of the voters still less than IT
otherwise would.

A 1919 prediction.

In a composite study of Taft and
Roosevelt contributed to the Atlantic
Monthly Francis e. Leupp. who was
commissioner OF indian affairssunder
the last administration, ventures into
the interesting realm of prediction as
follows:
without pretending to be a prophet oil
the son Of a prophet, will stake my all
as a political weather observer on thu
proposition that, however serious may b'
their fractional differences, the repubn
cans will renominats President Taft II
1912 II he wishes IT, This is not guess
but a sober thesis in the psychology Of
practical politics. The party that has
elected its candidate president by vouch
ing for him uncQnditionally to the Amer
lean people would be ashamed to- confess
at the end OF hia term that It had mis-
led the voters. Look back over the las
! fifty years No power under heaven, ex
cept his own Discrimination, could hav
prevented IAncoln's second nomination
or Grants. or Garfield's, If he had lived
or Cleveland's, or Harrison's, or McItin
| ley's As neither johnson or Arthur hai
reached the presidency by election, ant
Hayes had publicly declared that h
would not stand for a second term, thei
cases are not presidents.
While everyone has a right to turf
prophet for himself, Mr.. Leupp is al
old experienced newspaper man o.
wide political experience, and when hi
says In cold type, that The Return
from Elba' fol-de-rol has already dis
solved into thin air from which it wal
conjured. and that the Roosevelt To-
1912 hurrah still belongs in the sam,
category with the familiar abrldge
met OF Hamlet" he doubtless wants 1
understood that he did not write tn,
standard biography OF Theodore
Roosevelt without gaining fairl,

Nebraska Crops.

Nebraska farms have yielded $22O,-
600, 900 in crops this year, according
to the state labor bureaus figures,
which, at least on corn, are much less
than those of other statisticians So
this total is more likely to rise than
fall by several millions. But It is large
enough as 1t stands to indicate a most
healthful condition in Nebraska and
these figures, it must be borne in mind,
do not tell near all the story. They com
prise soil products only. To be added to
these is about S175,OOO.OOO worth of
live stock and scores of millions in
poultry. eggs. butter and milk.
So taken all round, the Nebraska
farmer ought to be able to keep the
wolf from the door for quite a while.
The state bureau suggests that the
population figures are likely to be dis
appointing, not showing as great in
crease as might be expected. Well, that
is not fatal 10 Nebraskans so long as
they are multiplying their wealth and
sources Of wealth upon so vast a scale.
And beside all this. they have not yet
turned their attention to the business
of increasing their population. When
they do, and they should not delay
longer, they probably will produce re-
suits to compare favorably with what
they have been producing on their
farms.
The state is better equipped now for
the reception of large influxes of popu-
lation than It was a decade ago, and
with all the elements encouraging a
western hegira, Nebraska ought to get
its natural share of newcomers. But
Il should not rest content with this
natural share. Mr.. Mappin properly
suggests that its people should
awake to the sense OF their duty in
advertising the resources and oppor-
tunities of their state In an effort to
attract new population. This same ap-
peal has been made by other state
labor commissioners and other sources
time and time again and II should stir
us TO greater action. A state with the
least percentage OF illiteraey and the
greatest per capita tax and hundreds Of

IL was to be expected that the
brewers and liquor dealers would
fight back against any proposal like
county option, which they regard as
Injurious to their interests.
Il was 70 be expected that they
would leave no stone unturned to get
a wet legislature, and perhaps they
have a right TO regard It equally a
measure Of self-defense to elect a gov
ernor who Will veto every county OPP
ton bill for them II they fall down in
the Legislature
But the brewers and liquor dealers
are playing their hand pretty strong
in Nebraska when they go beyond this
and undertake with their money and
hirelings to elect a United states SEN
ator who has nothing to do with
county option one way or the other.
II should be known far and wide
that the brewers and liquor dealers
through their subsidiary organization,
known as the German-Amerlca AL
lance, have put Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock,
democratic candidate for United States
senator. In with Mayor Jim" their
preferred candidate for governor.
With their money they are buying
space in foreign language newspapers
for paid reading matter calling upon
foreign born citizens to vote for
Hitchcock as "the fearless defender OF
liberal policies and accusing Senator
Burkett with being a prohibitionist
They make out that Hitchcock has g
claim to the liberal vote-Hitchcock
the man who, when the big fight wal
on threatening Nebraska with pro
hibition in 1890, ran away to- Europe
Just as be did two years ago when the
tariff bill was up,
This output of the brewery public
ity bureau has already appeared in {
large number OF foreign languag,
newspapers and is doubtless to b,
followed up with the personal worl
of their Doodle brigade. The brewer
and liquor dealers should be careful
