The Plmshealek is not given to pcsii wistic carping against constituted autli- oriUei, finJiug hutt with evcrr thing and evcrjbody. It is rather inclined to look upou the bright side of life hopefully and frame excuses for the foibles and follies bd rife even anions the bsst mem bers of society. lint mere are umc: and occasions when fair minded journalism should peak up and rebuke some of the affairs of official life. Oar legal jurisprudence should be free from taint of connivance at fraud or favoritism. Owing to the fact that, amongst the twenty odd indictments for murder in IXraglas county, batons was convicted of ra order in the first decree, and he was aided to escape and has not been re captured, the Plaixdejllxk is con stained to protest against such laxity, These things are giving Douglas county an unenviable reputation. This seem ing laxity In bringing manslayers to jus tice is causing many to regard Douglas county courts as not what they ought to be and expressions of distrust are fre quent in places of public resort where matters of this kind come up for com ment every time a criminal is placed on trial in this county, snch as: "They wont convict him," or they'll never hang him." Snch expression shows the state of public sentiment. The only case of a conviction for mnr aer in tnis county.Eince its organization (and there has been a score or more of killings, many of thm the fonleet of murders) was that of Sam G. Biown for killing Alfred Kincaid at Oakland, Aug list, ISW. Brown wasc onvicted and Judge Fnl Ierton sentenced him to hang February 15, 1695. His case was appealed to the supreme court. That court affirme J the correctness of the verdict and Judge Ful- lerton resentenced Brown to be executed Janua-y 31, 1896. But on the 30th day of December, 1S95, Brown, by the assist ace oi iouisiucrc, eujcieu tiia escape, thus again cheating the gallows out of another victim. Judge Fullerton and a grand jury did alt they could to fir the guilt upon the parties implicated, bnt so far without avail. Brown has etcaped, and the parties who assisted him to make his escape have escaped detection. Cute awyers and swift witnesses have suc ceeded in turning Joow upon the com munity quite a number of criminals, and the good, law abiding n.en have to suffer the stigma on Douglas county for its failure, thus far, in bringing evil doers to justice by puuiehing them as they de serve. The general inquiry now is, shall wo make our on u comforts or go without them at the will of a foreign nation? He, therefore, who is now against do meatic manutactures, must be for reduc ing us either to a dependence upon that nation, or to be clothed in skine and live like beasts in caves and dens. I am proud to say I am net one of these. Ex perience baa taught me that manufac tures arc now as necessary to our inde ndeuceafl to our comforts. Thomas Jefferson. In 1893, under McKinley protection laws, the farm value of hogs in the United States was 1295,426,492. This year, under a Gorman-Wilson tariff, the value is only 180,745 ; a falling off of 1109,000,000. Millions of gold is being drawn out by depoeilora to be hoarded; fearful that they may be ultimately compelled to take silver for their deposits. Such is the logic of the free silver coinage craze, now rampant. Every manufacture uiicuurag:l in out own coontry makeo a homo market, and saves E'J much money to tlio country that inuiit otherwise be exported. Dr. Benjamin Franklin. TELEGRAPH NEWS Harmony Prevails. Xkw Yoiiic, Jtilv 13. General Carlos Itololl'is in the city on busiueBS for tho Cuban government. General Roloff was asked if it were true, as reported by Spaniards, that dissensions among tho gunerals were weakening tho Cubans. "It is not," he said, with emphasis "There have been no dtssenstons-among u. Thero was no quarrel between Garcia aud Gomez, as reported, and Gomez did not countermarch on accoun of any trouble. lie countermarched on my order, hecauso ho wanted a consul tation of all the generals as to the pro grammo in view of the commencement of tho rainy season. "When Garcia lauded he was made naturally commandor-in chief of tho eastern department. He had been a general in the 10 years' war when Jose Macco was only a lieutenant colonel. The government assigned Gar eia to command of tho east, and Gomez had already made tho same assigument before tho government acted. His or der reached us two days after we acted.' "What is there in tbo charge that the insurgents want only to burn property?' "That, also, is not true," he replied "We don't want to destroy property, It is not to our interest to destroy an is land that we are risking our lives to make free and happy. Just as General Sherman burned on his march to tho sea, to destroy the rtsources of his enemies, so we have destroyed the sugar crop and burned sugar mills to cripple Spain. Spain drew the sinews of war from the exports of tGO.OOO.COO of sugar annually. We stopped the grinding to stop that revenue." And there's that explosive-bullet story," General Rolofl exclaimed, and laughed heartily. "Wo have not anything of the kind we have the brass-capped bullets we cap tured from the Spaniards. Thev use them in their Remingtons. That bullet is most deadly. It makes a terrible wound. Then there's the Manners we have from them. They make a Mauser in bpam, and tbo bullets from them wobble and strike side on. The Minser ball, w hen it strikes, does little harm unless it hits a vital spot. "As a matter of fact, nations are de vising tho most destructive implements of war, and those that achieve the great est destruction known. We use dyna mite, all wo can get. We blow up rail roads and we make mines and blow uj the Spaniards on the march and des troy steamers with it. The trouble with U3 is that we are not experienced in its use. We ought to destroy more with , ! General Roloff was asked it there was any truth in the charge that the Spanish killed pacihe jeople. he replied, "it is true. Yon can say for mo that I know thev kill pacificos. The civil guard and the guerillas do it. The civil guard are the wcrst murderers of all. They go out and fail to fight, and go baok and sav they had a battle." lie was asked if he had personal knowledge of the fact that Weylercom mitted atrocities in the 10-years war. les, and upon women at that," he replied. "But I don't want to say any thing on that subject. It is enough to repeat what 3Iarticez Campoa said about it before he left for Cnba. A Cu ban autonomist asked Campos if the re port was i rue inai ey:cr wts coming to Cuba. 'No,' Campos replied, "ihe dead would raise out of their graves if Weyler should go there. That was published in tho Spanish papers in Ha vana at the time. Ic'tsay anything further than tht.'' General KololT denied the Spanish stones about the execution of Cuban generals by Antonio Maceo and others. "They are all Spanish lies," be sid. "They have killed me several times, and ytt you see me safe and Bound. There is no doubt about the issue of the war. We will win. I don't know how long tue war will last. In the former war we had only 8000 or 10,000 armed men, but we held Spain in check for ten years." Will Endorse Bryan. Sr. Lows, July 15. Dr. Mott was seen alter the receipt of the Associated Press dispatch stating that National Commit teeman Delmar, of New York, had da ciareu inai mere wouiu rx no stale con -t , . i . . .t . . vention of the silver party in that state, since the democratic party had embodied the principles of the silver party in its platform adoptc 1 of Chicago. 'Will your convention endorse the Chicago nominees and platform?" he was asked. 'Well, I would not be sui prised. I don't kuow, ol couta, what the conven tion will do. I can't say, but I expect that Bryan's nomination and the plat form will receive our endorsement." "Does the Chicago platform come near enough to what the silver party wants to bo acceptable in its entirety? "Yes; all the silver party wants is sil ver, and the democratic platform will give us that." 'Has the party any decided views on tho tariff or the income tax that the dem ocratic platform will interfere with?" 'We have never held a convention be fore. This is our first. I don't know how the members of the party will feel about that. Our members are mostly silver men who have broken from the republican parly." "Would not they have a tariff lcanintr. then?" No; the money question will govern entirely. There will be no tariff issue in tbis campaign. We want to unito all tho friends of free silver, regardless of tariff and other issues." Populists of Nebraska. GltAMI JnI.A.Mi, July 15. - The IMM.IlliBt statu convention, to nlict ilehatcn to the national convention, convened at 11 m. amid great enthusiasm. Four hundred delegates composed the conven tion. Only one dblegute oponly opposed Bryan. He was Dan Burr, of Omaha. Senator Allen, in a speech, said that raon must lay asido party prejudices and voto as American citizens, not as popu lists, democrats or republicans. The re publicans would have agents at St. Louis to carry on the McKinley style of educa tion. This was tho year for work, and ho favored compulsory voting for every citizen entitled to voto. Senator Allen and Governor Holcoml) ore mentioned as certain to bend tho delegation. Bryan is to receive tbo unqualified indorsement of the convention, and in return tho democrats, whoso organization is wholly controlled by the Bryan element, will indorse tho populist state ticket. Huron, S, 1)., July 15. Tho populist stato convention, after a discussion of two hours, voted two to ono to indorse Bryan. Foreigners Alust Register. Havana, July 15. Captain-General Weyler has issued a decree that all for eigners in the island are to register in a special book in tho government's charge previous to their being justified in ap pealing to article 7 of the decree relative to foreign citizenship of November, 1SSI Thoso not registering within 30 days Captain-General Weyler say8, will loso their privileges aud rights as foreigners, The reason given for issuing this decree is that native Cubans aro taking advau tago of the rights accorded to foreign cit lzens to escape penalties which tl.ey lay themselves liable lo. If the policy of protection is not to be just in its application, aud national its scope, ba3cd upon broad principle. then the sooner it is relinquished the better. It cannot be sustained, and ou'.lit not to be, for one class or interest or action, and denied to others equally within the contemplation ,of its purpote The raw materials class have right which cannot be ignored. Those who think otherwise, forget tlut the ad vanced product ii only tho manipulation of the less advanced, and tho less ad vanced of Ihe still less finished product with human labor as the chief factor in all; and protection uKn the one can not be euccesifully and permanently maintained without protection of the other. Hon. William McKintev. The democrats arc a little previous in claiming California as a democratic state tbis fall. When the returns come in wo predict that California will give a good plurality for the champion of protection m. McKinley. The tariff is the lead mg ice and no matter how hard the democrats try to drown it with the free silver agitation, they will find that it is of too much importance to lose sight of. It is much better to legislate in favor of a principle which will bring prosperity to the great mass of American people, than lor the few silver miners of Colo rwo, Nevada and a few other states. Yreka Journal. Leading democratic journals and lead ing men East, West and North are re pudiating the democratic platform and nominee for president. There are alto some prominent men and newspapers in the South which are opposed to tho combine. The Galveston News, Nash vine banner, Petersburg iVa.,) Index- Appeal, Cattanooga Times of Tennessee and Baltimore Snn, all Southern and staunch democratic psoere. have rj Tolled against the Chicago platform and nominee. The value of United States dairy prod ucts marketel in forcicn countries in 1S&2, under a McKinley tariff, was $",- 616,037. In JS93, under the Gorman tariff, only $2,401, 117 was marketed in the "markets of the world," that demo cratic free trade orators talked so much about during the last campaign, but which they never mention now.
