SATUBDAY, FEBRUARY 18th, 1888.
CALL FOR THE REPUBLICAN NA
TIONAL CONVENTION.
The National Bepublican conven
tion is called to meet at Chicago on
the 19th of June, 1888. Each state
will be entitled to fonr delegates at
large and for each representative at
large two delegates, and each con
gressional district, each territory
and the District of Columbia two
delegates. The delegates at large
shall be chosen by state conventions
and delegates from congressional
districts by district conventions.
An alternate delegate for each dele
gate shall also be chosen. Under
this apportionment Nebraska will
be entitled to ten votes.
MR. BLAINE'S LETTER.
It is with feelings of genuine re
gret that Mr. Blaine's ardent admir
ers read his letter declining to allow
his name to be presented to the Na
tional Republican Convention for
nomination to the presidency, and
yet many of them believe it is the
best course for the party that Mr.
Blaine can pursue. Remembering
the fierce hatred with which he was
fought not only by the enemy but
by numerous leading members of
his own party, many Republicans
who have always stood by him and
will continue to do so, feel that it is
not wise policy to unnecessarily
jeopardise success by placing in
nomination one who has so many
bitter personal enemies. In states
manship and in every element that
makes a true and genuine American
Mr. Blaine is to-day the foremost
man in America. His election to
the Presidency would be a joy and a
triumph to those who have followed
him for years, and an honor to the
party aud the nation. But not
withstanding his eminence and
ability, if he lacks the element of
success, he should stand aside and
let the party choose from among
those who possess the qualifications
that will insure victory. We are
satisfied that Mr. Blaine looks at
the matter in just this light. His
patriotism to party and country
prompts him to the course he has
taken a course that makes him all
the more popular with the people.
STATE CONVENTION OF REPUBLICAN
CLUBS.
Geo. D. Meiklejohn, vice presi
dent of Bepublican National League
for Nebraska, has issued a call for a
meeting of Republican Clubs of
Nebraska at Omaha Thursday,
March 15. Each club of twentv
members is entitled to three dele
gates, besides the president who is a
delegate by virtue of his office. The
convention shall not name, recom
mend or nominate any candidate for
office. The primary object of hold
ing the convention is the organiza
tion of a state Republican League.
A strong sentiment prevails now
in favor .of Phil Sheridan for presi
dential candidate. Belonging to no
clique or faction, without having
committed himself to any particu
lar line of policy other than the gen
eral principles of the party, the Gen
eral would be elected without a
question. We believe he is a man
of iron will, with small sympathy
for cringing politicians or office
seekers. He will not be popular with
this class. Judging from his
actions while a soldier, he will be
autocratic, with an inclination to
have a policy of his own. We fav
or taking the candidate from civil
life, who will be more in sympathy
and work more in harmony with
the leading men of the nation.
Since the declination of Blaine, at
the head of the list stands John
Sherman, with, many others who
are easy seconds. Let us select a
man from among them.
Bayard's fishery commission has
patched up what he and the English
papers are pleased to call a "treaty."
As we understand it the "commis
sion" has no authority to draft a
treaty. In fact, so far as this gov
ernment is concerned the members
have no authority to do anything
but talk. Their labors are princi
pally wind, and Secretary Bayard
appears to be the bellows.
D. R. Locke, editor of the Toledo
Blade, but more familiarly known
as "Petroleum V. Nasby," died at
his home in Toledo Wednesday.
He was fifty four years old.
Our supreme court has recently
decided that a married woman may
carry on business and make con
tracts in the same manner as if she
were unmarried. We supposed this
point had been settled long ago.
The Dorsey bill designating
Kearney, Norfolk, Omaha, Lincoln,
and Hastings as places for holding
U. S. courts in Nebraska passed the
house on Tuesday. There are in
dications that it will have a rocky
time in the Senate. It should be
amended .there by striking out Kear
ney and inserting North Platte..
COUNTY NEWS.
WALLACE.
, Mr. Ed. do not think I've desert
ed you; oh no, I've had my few
notes written up every week, but
the fact is, Wallace is growing so
fast and our merchants' business is
increasing so rapidly that it takes
all the postage stamps our worthy
P. M. can get to supply their wants
and consequently I am left out in
the cold: but our P. M. has made
special arrangements with Uncle
Sam to send us a carload more or
less per month so I think hereafter
you will hear from us regularly.
Henry Patterson returned from a
visit to Page county, Iowa, a few
days since. He reports very stormy
and disagreeable weather there and
says Lincoln countv is a second
Italy.
Mr. Fye from near O'Fallons
came over here after corn a few days
snce: rather hard luck,1)ut then he
says that he is thankful to get it so
near home.
Mr. Hayden purchased last week;
of Mr. Bloomneld. two very fine
Poland China pigs. Mr. H. believes
in raising fine stock or none at all.
Some parties are boring a well at
the R. R. house with a hand auger.
This is the first experience in this
neighborhood with a hand machine
and should it prove a success will
bring the cost of a well within the
reach of all.
A Mr. Gregory from Hastings is
erecting a 24x49 building, to be oc
cupied as a general merchandise
store. Welcome all.
Our literary and debating society
is still thriving and the interest
manifested is something unusual.
The house is crowded to overflowing
every night. The question for last
Saturday evening, the 11th, was:
Resolved, "That free trade, is better
for the majority of the people of the
United States than the present high
protective Tariff." The Affirmative
was represented by Frank Wallace
and B. A. Shinkle; the Negative, by
Chas. Reynolds and J. W. Nation.
After quite a lengthy discussion the
?uestion was decided in favor of the
Negative.
Our post office has been removed
from the drug store to the Herald
office. This, I believe, will give the
best satisfaction of any location in
town. Boxes are fitted up and our
mail will hereafter come regularly.
J. W. Nation and J. H. Seaton,
each received a fine line of agricul
tural implements last week.
I noticed in last week's fferdld a
call for an attorney to locate here.
An attorney would do well here, but
a lumber yard would do better.
We are not so particular about the
yard so we get the lumber, as we
already have two yards but.no lum
ber. What our farmers and mer
chants ought to do is to ship their
own lumber, as one of our mer
chants did, and we glory in his
spunk. Give us a company that
can carry a stock of lumber, not a
yard.
Mr. Homer, one of our leading
farmers is putting in 60 acres of
wheat this year.
Agricola.
GARFIELD.
The weather has been fine for a
few days, snow almost gone and
some of the formers have been plow
ing a little.
Mr. E. D. Burdick of Cass county
is visiting his two sisters, Mrs. G. S.
Tapham and Mrs. Jacob Miller.
1 notice our old neighbor Dug
Arbogast in our midst again. Dug
is now a resident of Butler county
but has a deeded claim in this vi
cinity. The North Star flouring mills of
Arnold are having a serious time
with their dam. It has been
washed out several times this win
ter and the mill will not run for
some time yet.
The pumps and wells have all
been on the war path here this
winter; they were either full of
sand, left rods broken or full t of
sand.
We understand we are sroiner to
lose our postmaster, Mr. Auble; he
is talking of moving to Gandy.
Mr. A. has been a faithful post
moster and we hope" we t may get
another one as good as he has been.
W. F. Campbell is feeding a few
steers this winter. He says they
eat corn as though it was plenty
and cheap.
The young men of military aspi
rations of this part of the country
have organized an independent mil
itary company and on Saturday
evenings - take a little training in
that line. Go in boys, a good
training will not hurt you and may
be of service some time.
The literary at the east school
house is getting interesting; the
house is full every evening and
some a distance, one of whom was
the Logan county superintendent
who took part in the debate on a
historical question and was taken to
task and pretty roughly handled by
some of our plug speakers. We
would advise the gentleman to read
up a little before making another
attempt.
The lion is visiting us again; he
has been seen by several persons
lately and is getting rather familiar
on short acquaintance. He was
taking a view of some school- chil
dren on the road from school but
did .not attempt to molest them.
Marion Speagal has put down a
well on his claim, striking water at
one hundred and seventy-nine feet.
Some of our neighbors have the
Washington Territory fever, but we
think they will recover when Spring
opens up.
M. D. Arbogast came near get
ting one of his horses crippled a few
days ago, but I did not learn the
particulars. - Felter.
WELLPLEET.
Well Mr. Editor it seems that I
write too much or I don't write to
suit you. If T do not answer the
purpose as a correspondent, try
some one else, or inform me where
in I am wrong and I will try and do
better.
The weather is warm and beauti
ful; we have no use for overcoats
over half the time. One could not
wish for a better climate, good roads,
good people and good country.
Mr.' Sthanemenn, a German, has
bought a new wheat drill. He
knows how to farm and he uses
good judgment for wheat sowing.
Mr. Martin Lunda would make a
No. 1 reporter for some large paper
as he is posted on every thing that
is going on all over the country, aud
could give- information on every
subiect bertaininsr to locals.
The tt. & M. has the stone found
ation for the water tank completed.
It is a fine piece of work and a
credit to Wellfleet. The rest of the
building will soon be in operation.
There was a 'grand hop at Wm.
Parcels a few evenings ago. A
large crowd assembled and enjoyed
themselves hugely. None but the
best homesteaders of the country
were there and that is the reason
why it went off so smoothly.
Wm. McConaughay, of North
Platte, a son-in-law of John T.
Labille was in the neighborhood of
Dutch Flats with a view to taking
a homestead. He was well pleased
with the country. Come on, Wm.,
we need more good citizens like you.
Charles Lock thinks a good tem
perance society would do well here.
He and his associates will probably
try to organize one here and I wish
them success. Probably they could
influence the fair sex to take good
advantage of leap year.
Mr. W. C. Elder contemplates
moving his law office to Wellfleet
where he will be better prepared to
issue law to those who want it. It
would be a great advantage to every
body as it is more central for his
business. Stunner.

butts of tobacco were missing. Fergu
son reported the loss to the officers who
succeeded in finding the missing tobacco
under a pile of hay belonging to Frank
Shoefelt, at Hiles sales stable. A negro
who had been in town two or three days
was charged with the theft and placed
under surveillance, but Monday morning
he was gone and "nobody knows whar."
It is said the negro denied stealing the
tobacco and implicated a white man, but
as the negro is gone the white man will
probably go free for want of evidence to
convict. The necro had helped to put
the hay in the stable, where the tobacco
was found, on Saturday. In this con
nection it might be -well to state that
there has been an unusual amount of
petty thieving in town for a few months
past, and hardly a merchant has escaped
the loss of small articles from their
shelves and connters. It is only a ques
tion of time and the strong hand of the
law will grasp the theives and give them
a shaking that will be remembered
