braced in the pamphlets of Kdward Atkinson, en route to Manila and ordered removed from the mails at San Francisco, the more infamous and detestable it appears. Much of it is unfit for publication in any decent or 1 nelf-respecting newspaper, and even if it did not go beyond an attack on the administration, with its vile charges and outrageous falsehoods, it would still be bad enough to damn the author beyond any possibility of atonement. If it was proposed to circulate this matter merely in the mails of the United States, it would be utterly ob- jectionable, but it is proposed to go further than that and distribute false- hood and sedition among our volun-1 teer soldiers in the Philippines, whose opportunities for learning the truth are limiied, and who must of necessity i rely for right conclusions on their own good judgment. There are three of these pamphlets, and they will be free-1 ly circulated throughout the United States during the next year because I they have been embodied in congress-' lonal remarks for the Congressional Record and will be franked through the mails to the extent of millions of! copies. The long and the short of the whole matter is that Mr.

Atkinson and his pals have presumed too much on American liberty of speech. Free speech and a free press are essential In a free country. The fullest liberty compatible with honest expression of opinion, of legitimate criticism and honest discussion of public questions, is right and proper. But the liberty which grants this much is construed by some to mean license, and as a result the liberty is abused and the license outraged. Whatever political administration may be in power, is during that period the government itself, to all practical interns ana purposes, in uo country in the world, barring our own, would the license be permitted which charges the government with the worst possible forms of criminality.

A critical moment in our own affairs has arrived when it must stop in the United States. It is not the fear of honest criticism that need be feared, but the seditious carpings of socialists and anarchists among the so called higher classes that expect immnnity because of their very i prominence. Chemist Wiley of the U. S. department of agriculture declares that fully ninety per cent of the articles of food manufactured and sold in the United States are adulterated frauds.

This is a startling statement, and ought to spur congress to renewed efforts to bring about a revolution in the interests of pure food. Senator Paddock worked long and hard on that line and was nearly successful in securing the passage of a pure food bill, but little has been done in that direction since his retirement from the senate. The University of Chicago is other of those vile educational nests that harbors a lot of professors who come within the St. Louis Globe-Democrat's definition of "mental freaks and political malignants," and whose presence in the institution is sufficient notice to patriotic people to keep their sons and daughters at home rather than send them there to be edu cated. Speaking of William J.

Bryan, J. Sterling Morton's Conservative says that "this phenomenal lawyer who never had a client, this resonant statesman who never drafted a statute, this skilled financier who never made a dollar, this soldier who nevef fired a grun of saw a battle, is again in the saddle and hoarsely commanding the Bouth to follow him once more to dis aster and defeat." It should not be forgotten that the people of Nebraska during the year 1898 decreased their mortgage indebtedness over sixteen millions, just when thepopocratic calamity ites ware declaring with the utmost vehemence that prosperity had not returned. It is rather hard to have the argument against them, but "fax is fax." The Filipinos who want a three months truce in order to find out whether they want any more fighting are a pretty nervy lot, and it is evident that they have learned something from their long period of contact with THne THE CONNING TOWER. Kearney people always know when spring has come, for it is then that our grandest of all the grand old farmers, Farmer John Brady, dons a waumus and a pair of plow shoes and goes out to wrest a fortune from un. 1 willing Mother Earth.

is up to his old tricks again, experi inenting with new brands of pumpkins and potatoes and causing two blades of alfalfa grow where but one blade grew before. There is considerable difference between the learned profession who stay at home and belittle the country and the common soldiers of the volunteer army who go out to fight its battles, and the comparison is quite disastrous to the professors. It is painful to note the snjall of people who are being given in marriage in Buffalo county, especial ly with so clever and accommodating a person as E. Frank Brown in charge of the license bureau. If the unmarried people of the county would look this matter squarely in the face they would readily see that they are not doing their duty, either by themselves, by Judge Brown, or by State of Ohio, City of Tolk.ixi LrcAS County.

The Nebraska state board of health is having trouble again. It is the same old troublesome question, whether to issue license or not to issue license to a specialist who is guilty of "unprofessional" conduct in letting his light shine through the advertising columns of the newspapers. The board is wrestling with a case of that kind now, the applicant for license having spent twenty years in the practice of certain special branches of nis profession. This is another of those cases where the doctors dyiagree, and in which the public is unable to decide. But nothing Is ever settled until it is settled right, and the only way to settle this controversy is to enact a law making it "unprofessional" for any physician to fail to advertise.
