TEMPER THE WIND,

| The members Of long time do
minant party are apt to become 6
bit careless in the framing of sen
fences criticislrg opponents. II
is possibly streak of human ma
ture in US which prompts US to
claim all the good and to impugu
to our opponents all the selfish
ness and mismanagement that
may be apparent in parties.
In Iberia parish we now have
two partles-the Progressives and
the Democrats. 1t would he as
much of an error for the one to
claim all the intelligence and
high aspirations as it would be
for the other to impugn all ignOr
ance, disloyalty and dishonesty
to their opponents. We see fam
lilies divided, father against son,
and brotherp against brother. In
the new Observation-Disclosures,
there Is every reason for .curbing
old style denunciatiOns of ones
opponents.
The information comes to us
that certain Office seeker has
won the first heat in the political
race and secured the nomination
Of his party. Flushed with vic
tory and a desire for the applause
of his confederates, he has mis- |
taken his privilege for license
and has uttered many an unkind |
thing against the party OF many
Of those who assisted him in gain
ing the nomination 1t is well to
remember that there will be an
other try out before the Office can
be occupied 1t used TO be that
a nomination was the whole Of
the race, but not now.

How Terribly Distressfull

II seems that no matter what the republicans
do in Nebraska, they cannot possibly escape the
distressing sympathy Of our amiable democratic
contemporary which is so constantly fearful that
republican mistakes may re-elect its chief owner
to the United States senate E& tt"
Because the republican primary, fought out
free from factional States resulted in the nomi-
nation Of majority Of candidates residing in
Omaha or Lincoln, it is tearfully soicitous for
republicans in other parts Of the state to correct
the defects of the primary by voting the demo-
cratic ticket.
Because the former bull moosers are back in
the party and are sharing with the regulars the
management Of the republican campaign, this
democratic organ is shedding copious crocodile
tears over the outrages perpetrated by the stand
patters.
Because the chairman OF our recent republican
state convention assailed the democratic record
of "watchful webbing" and showed up good and
plenty the Reputation Of democratic promises
he Is subjected to personal ridicule and lampoon-
ing,
We know it is terribly distressing for the
democrats to see the handwriting on the wall
foreshadowing their certain defeat and we hardly
expect them to be in jovial spirits about it, but
they ought not to take it so hard at this early
stage of the game. A@ .1.
