WEDNESDAY, MARCH 22d, 1893. Tie Galled Jade Winces. Era since the campaign of 1890 J. K. Stevens, who once misrep-v resented this distnct in the state senate, has "had it in" for The Tribune, and he never loses an op portunity to refer to the editor as .iiar, scoundrel, -villain, etc. 'In last week's issne of the Era Mr. Stevens conies ont in a denial of a conference which The Tribune ciaimed was held at the Hawley House a couple of weeks since, and uses such denial as a basis for hurl ing a few of his pet epithets at the editor. In regard to the conference, The Tribune received its infor mation as to the fact of the meet ing being held from a boarder at the Hawley House, and the pro ceedings of the conference were published just as they were given to us by a aim on pure member of the independent party who was dis pleased at the action which he was positive took place at that meeting. For the past three years we have been taught that a-member of the above party knows not how to tell a'falsehood, and profiting by these teachings we did not doubt the truth of the statement made to us. Since the publication of our article, we have learned that several independ ents have said that if The Tribune had published the full details of the meeting the article would have caused a much greater sensation. Much as the hon. j. k. stevens de sires The Tribune to drag him before the good people of Lincoln county and parade him as the great est man among the members of the indenendent Dartv, we cannot con sent to do so. We do not propose to assist him in exhibiting his polit ical ulcers to the public by engag ing in an ante-campaign contro versy through the newspapers, thus affording, him an opportunity to work the sympathy dodge and se cure a nomination by his party, which could scarcely be less worth ily bestowed. No, no! you are a rather "foxy" individual, but Reyn ard's cunning is too plainly visible. You should be allowed to fester iu the crave of political oblivion to which the electors of Lincoln coun tv so tenderly consigned you bu two years ago. The dank and dis mal tomb should be quietly occu pied by you was the verdict of your t rr 5 Deeri at the dous in ibwi. ana you should be content with the finding, The facts stated about you in the canvass two years ago were believed to be true by tne puoiic, as me re suit showed. There has been no evidence produced as yet to disprove ' them, although to be sure you were content to rest quiet within your MBulcner during the last campaign in order that the people might for get your shortcomings; yet now thai the preliminary work is being don by members of your party to secure nominations for county omce, you bob np serenely and bv yonr actions even louder than words, indicate that von are again out for politica preferment. To your associates tou have looked solemn and inti mated that there was a hitherto unwritten history of the strangling two years ago of the stock yards bill wauth would in a measure vm dicate vourcoune. An honest man does not willinely rest under an im putation reflecting upon his integ rity: when a knave wishes to con ceal the hand controlling his actions he some times does this. If your pretended vindication vindicates why not give it to the people and let them judge as to its plausibility? Your conduct as to this bill was one of the strongest factors in causing your political downfall , Clear your record. If there is to be no special session of congress, then the tariff question can not be touched until next De cember, and meanwhile how are the people going to stand those alleged burdens which reduced them to the erge of poverty, according to the speeches with which the democrats carried the election? The prediction of one of the New York democratic papers that "the best of the men in all the parties will be supporting Cleveland before his term ends" is evidently based on ibe assumption that he will pitch aato the dominant -element of his party on the silver question. Chairmanships of two or three comparatively unimportant senate committees are given to the pop nliets. The populists will be handy to have around when the vote on silver, which will send most of the eastern democratic senators over to the republicans, is takan. The real billion congress was not the republican fifty-first congress, but the fifty-second congress, which was democratic in the popular braaefc. As the next one will be democratic in both branches, it may be a billion and a quarter congress if the funds hold -out Tmi new Attorney General is said to be a man of "fine manners" but the people do not care so much about . hk deportment as they do about bis intentions with regard to the trusts.

We can tell them that he is an old timer, and" will continue to do bus iness at the old stand. Will be heard from many times in the future. This may be a lie, but there is a certain well out in Walker precinct in which the devil is said to appear, and the owner wishing to petition or persuade him to leave, looked over the curbing the other night when the devil caught him by the nose and he has been smell ing brimstone ever since, and at in tervals he is seized with convulsions, belches sulphur, scorpions, and scal opelrons without end and it is feared he has nickophobia.

"Miss Summers Polly 1 er dare I But the speaker took a header over bashfulness, only to hear a sweet: 'Yes Charlej" "an l aspire to er to that is - Again a lapse into silence, followed by an encouraging t "Yes, Charley." "Oh, if I might only hope to er to " Another failure of language, it was seemingly a hopeless case, and might have been, only for a demure: "Charley, I've said yes' twice, and if you mean it, I mean it, too, and aud " And to this day that young man will insist that he popped the question. All this happened away "down, east,"" and it wasn't long before thene was a wedding. Not much longer before there came a letter from Polly's uncle, Josh, out in Nebraska, who wrote effusively of his delight at her exhibition of what he called "grit," and he proposed that if the young couple would locate at North Platte he would start them up iu life as a wedding gift. , . . Of course they accepted, nnd were bid' ding their friends, adieu. , " i ' A few weeks subsequent to the above conversation travel-stained party arrived at North Platte. Our friend Uncle Josh was in charge and he led the party straightway to a hotel. ' The Nebraska House," said he, "is a typical fl.25 a day hotel of the best class. I have known Federhoof, the manager, for years and he is mine host after my own heart. A thorough business man, ho is endowed with that delightful intuition that makes a guest feel at home, comfortable, con tented and in mighty good luck. "I have already provided you with a cage for your bird," said Uncle Josb. "the first thing we'll look after will be the furnishing for it." Hereupon Polly energetically declared that she hadoheard so much abour H. S. Keith that she de, sired to go there. The result was that: they were ushered into such a bewilder-' ing display that the girl was at firsf at( loss how to select. But she soon yielded to the seductiveness of a magnifiegpt panor suite, a bedroom set in oak (antique finish) that would have done credit tn. old Antiquity herself. To this she added dining-room set with all accessories. complete kitchen outfit, and didn't, forget a most convenient and ornamental writing desk for "Hubby" Charles. "A pretty good start," said the old man', "and now we'll go to A. L. Davis'' hard: ware store." Hero Polly's housewifely instincts had full play in marvels of kit' chen apparatus, Acorn ranges, Reliable gasoline stoves, etc. "Yes," resumed Un cle Josh, "and there's bulk garden seeds; they iie the best, and you need some: There is not an establishment ia tke west that carries a more comprehensive stock of household furnishjngs. Every possible piece of kitchen furniture, .from a tin dipper to a cooking range is hero in, all styles and variety. If Poljy fails accomplish wonders in the culinary art,' it will not be for fault of superior'cooking utensils. "Let's see I promised you a gold watch; didn't I ?" quired Uncle Josh of Polly. "The place of all places in town is C. S. Clinton, so we'll go there." En tering the popular jewelery store, the old man gallantly acauitted himself of his promise and then directed Polly's atten tion to the superior stock of silverware carried by the hpqse. "There is no such house in North Platte," said the old man, "and I will guarantee the quality to be of the4 very best. Pick out your family clock while here," he added. Jlr. Clin ton carries a magnificent line. "jDont forget another fact," he continued, "if ever you unfortunately need optical goods this is the phice to come. He has every-" thing required to improve affected eyes and to determine the required treatment-" ! . At this point, somewhat to the confusion J of Charles, the old man indnlgeditr-S ! half-serious criticism of his personal appearance. "You are decidedly off style for a townsman," said he, "and we'd better eo over to The Model." After Charles had fitted himself out in a neat and late style business suit from the piles of fashionable garments that cover the tables of this extensively stocked estab lishment, Uncle jTosb, declared that "now you look like a neikly married man." Before leaving, having found goods and prices irresistable, Charles also invested in a complete outfit of gents' furnishing goods, from the latest style hat ro a dozen shirts. This house is not to be undersold in Nebraska. While Uncle Josh was pondering where to go next Polly suddenly asked : "Uncle where can I find the leading miilfnery establishment?" "Just a few 'doors further on," remarked Uncle Josh, ,and we will viit Mrs. G. S. Huffman, who,,by the way! has on -hand oue of the com-' pletest stock of millinery to he found iin the city Yon can get what you want. there, the latest styles and lowest p'rices beipg her motto, She has the experience which guarantees' that when vou -im've purchased of her you have "the thing at the lowest possible price." And a4 fe'w hours later there wa3 never a happier lady than Polly. Al this point Uncje Josh suggested " a resort to some place of refreshment, At the refreshment table Uncle-Josh waxed philosophically, "never neglect your larder," said he, "that important adjunct of housekeeping controls mas culine temper. To that end you must patronize a grocer on whom you can depend fop "hpneft gp.pds, Through a nng term ot years l nave iouna John Herrod perfectly reliable. You will find him a careful dealer, always full' stocked with every possible thing "in the Hue of staple ana fancy groceries, fresh: and first-class no shelf worn goods there ; while the prices are 'down to brass 'tacks' " Mr. Herrod sells Pillsgury 'a best, Morning Glory and Lexington Patent flour: Chase and Sanborn's celebrated teaatnd coffees; Joseph Burnett's 'Bos ton extracts ana uuruse rona's canned goods. "Oh, I must have an album, Uncle Josh," exclaimed Polly, and " "Yes, and a Bible with a reasonable big family register," interrupted the old man, "so we'll call on J. E. Bush o'f the North Platte Pharmacy. You'll find many-articles indispensable for the parlor as' well as library there." And for variety jthey have an unequalled stock and Polly'y purchase included ablums, combs, brushes fine1 imported perfumes and other bric-a brae. "You can also sec," said Uncle Josb, "the drugs and medicines kept by this house are pure and fresh. You must 'have your doctor's prescriptions filled here if you want it done accurately and at a reasonable cost." "I declare, Uncle," exclaimed Charles "there goes a handsome phaeton ; I must have one like that for the girl." "Get it right here," sententiously said the old man. "My friends, Hershey & Co., con duct a .carriage repository here that for variety and excellence of stock cannot be beaten. They carry surreys, carriages buggies and phaetons of nil the leading makes and styles, and aresatisfied with moderate nront, too." folly was soon the owner of a handsome Columbus phaeton. "Who is a a good horse-shoer, Uncle ?" asked Charles. "You know how partic ular I am about my mare, Kitty." "Jess so; you want no butcher about her," said Uncle Josh. "Well there's only ode first class horse-shoer in town to my notion and that's Felty of Hershey & Co." "Oh!" exclaimed Polly, as they halted before a show window, " what a perfectly lovely slipper." "Yes," said Uucle Josh "The Fair Btock can't be equalled in style and extent In this section ; come in and look it over." It might have been policy not to have extended that invitation had not Uncle Josh known now wise economy it. is to trade at The Fair, for Polly found goods and prices so seduc tive.that she purchased an outfit from satin slipper to a handsome walking boot. Charles invested in a gent's fine shoe, while Uncle Josh indulged in a stout farm boot. No one needing foot near can resist the stylo aud prices of Tne Fair. "As you are going to farming," re- 1 marked Uncle Josb, "You will need har ness. Therboss horse milliner in this seetioh'ni Henry Yost. He'employs only irst-class workmen and gives persona! supervision to the minutest detail of manufacture. There is nothing in his line that cannot be had of him heavy and light, single and double, plain and fancy, work and buggy harness; ho has all of them in stock, and the finest line of saddles you ever saw. He's selling buggy robes at a great bargain, too." "And another absolutely necessary adjunct to farming," remarked Uncle Josh with the air of an old stager, "is complete outfit of farming utonsilee, First-class farming implements are neces saryto first-class work, and I know of no one who keeps a larger or better stock than J. F. Hinman, on whom you can depend for the strictest integrity even to trie minutest detail of business transac tions. He handles the John. Deere ma chinary, Moline wagons, Badger corn planter, and in fact everything in the liae'of implements." "Law eakes," here ejaculated tho gen erous old man,."all the tradin and swap pin has caused me to most forget one of tho greatest centials to future existence it nas been said that newly married folks'nan live on love and scenery, but I don't believe that. Come with me to K. S. Besack's meat market. This is the place of all places for good meat. Polly, if you want to keep your busband in good humor trade here. Mr. Besack Kills notniDg out good neaitny young stock. That's the reason you can always get .tender steaks, sweet roasts and choice pork chops and sausage at this market, Don't forget what I tell you Polly." En route to their homo tho gentlemen called at The Tribune office. "You'll want the news every week," said Uncle Josh, 'and as this is the favorite paper hqre I'll subscribe for 'it." Upon rejoining Polly she began to volubly express her thanks. "You have bought us everything," sho exclaimed. "Only one thing," remarked Uncle Josh reflectively, "but I can remedy that. H. S. Keith always has a fine line of them and you can get one whenever you want it; I'll pay for the best." "W-h-y," exclaimed Polly with great citrjosjty, "whatever is it?" "Well, it's a baby wagon, and " But Polly had fainted. A Sound Liver Makes a "Well Man. Are you BiHious, Constipated or troubled with Jaundice, Sick Headache.
