The gO\'crnmcnt of the United
Statcs iJ : annually spending largc
sums of money and going to
much pains of invcstigation and
expcrimtnt in laudable efforts to
improve the brccds of horscs ,
cattle , uwine , sheep and poultry ,
and tu increase the ferlility of
thc soil alill thc quality and
quantity of its grains and vegc-
ta lcs , It is also doing a great
deal aud expcnding much to ameliorate -
liorate the c01ulition of the poor
and depcndcnt ; to relievc the
suffcring of the sick and the dis.
trcsscd ; to stamp out disease and
to cduc'\te thc people to a sense
of right , hcalthful and optimistic
living. Contrasted with some of
thc oldcr , countries of Europe , :
thc Amcri an states arc justly
coming to be rcgardcd as a veritable -
able utopia of tcmperancc , of
industry , of practical and progressive -
sive ideas in respect to cduca.
tional standar s an of civic
virtue , and yet , it is the commOI1
experience of every ay life that
the stri ent voices of critics arc. .
beard in denunciation and the
ban ying of drivel touching some
or all of these subjects.
Heports from the various
county conventions over the state
which have instructed dcleg-ates
to make it ccrtain that at the
state convcntion on the 12th the
Nebraska elegation to the rc-
publican national convention will
be instructed for ' 1'aft. ' 1'here
are 925 clegates to thc Rcpubli-
can convention. It ta } < es 463 to
ensure an en orscmcnt. Alrea y
658 elegatcs have been se lected.
Of thcse 561 are instructe for
i Taft , 66 for Hoosevelt an there
arc 3 L uninstructe and scatter-
ing. So far as it is Imown , La
Follette has not secure a single
instructed delcgate to the state
convention.
It is inveritablv the case that
-
thc a option of violencc as a
means to thc attainmcnt of a
private end , results in greater
loss than it can gain. It is for
that very reason that violeuce is
suppre scd by organized society.
In the case of the tobacco growcrs
of Kcntucky it has ccn possible
to bring the truth home with
unusual clearness by thc test of
the imediately proximate facts.
Not enl } ' has not a particle of
benfit resulted from their night
ridings an acts of intimidation ,
but the converse has actuallv
happcne . 'l'he tobacco mark t
is virtually ruincd for months to
come and the growers are impoverished -
poverished and disheartencd.
It appears that thc liquor
dealers' associations throughout
the countrr arc endcavoring to
arousc the farmers against pro.
hi ltory laws by warning them
that thcir mar } < ct for corn will be
utterly ruined if the reweries
an istillerics arc closed. In
the face of thc easily ascertaincd
statistical fact that not more
than 2 per ccnt of thc corn crop
is turned into ooze all such
arguments must nccessarily pre.
suppose ingnorance on the part
of those to whom the circulars
are a resse .
Cities-especially large cities-
are not such ideal places for the
average workingman as many
wage-earners have been misled
into elie\'ing. Work on the
fami or in the smaller towns is
better paying an so far superior
in point of healthfulness as to
mak comparisons almost beyon
the capacity of avcrage un er.
atanding.
No one should blame an ) ' of
the ncwspaper bo's for charging
for announcements an other po-
litiral news , and they have to
charge well , too , if thcy get
enough to pay the expenses' they
are assesse for settinglthe type
and furnishing the paper 011
which to print them.

It may be that too llIuch sport
is made of John D. Hockcfeller ,
and th at t herc is too lIluch a usc
of the greet corporation he has
built up. He is a man of grcat
comUlcrcial gcnius and has built
up a wonderful industry , cm-
ploying thousands of peoplc , and
at thc same time cheapcned thc
prOlluct , but it is the mcthods
that have een u.sed to stamp out
all competition. unfairly , availing -
ing itself of all sorts of rebatcs ,
getting just as near the edge of
the law as possible , and acts of
this nature , which have turned
sympathy into hatred and ma e
it so that everv man's hand is
turned against this giant concern.
Political , social and business
prcssure-greater than has ever
before becn experienccd since the
dark days of thc Civil war-has
been rough t to bcar upon thc
present national administration
in thc attempt to stay the han
of prosecution in rcspcct to those
who ought not to go unwhippe
of justice , but all such appeals
ha ve fallen upon ears dcaf to
argumcnts founded upon sentiment -
ment and expediency , hearint {
only the call of duty as inflexible
as the decrees of fate.
