The Era should not forget that the Patterson bill was allowed by the present city council, and a war rant ordered drawn for the payment ot the bill. Neither should it for get that the $2,000 received as occu pation tax on saloons was ordered to paid out on salaries by a coun cil of which the present mayor, Mr. Day. and Mr. Schatz were members. It should also bear in mind that Councilmen Thomson. Schatz and Cunningham have voted solidly to gether in sustaining Mayor Day up on all questions where there has been a fight, and this combine forms a majority vote. A late dispatch from Ohio states that five of the fusion members elected to the legislature in that state held a meeting and declared that they would vote for the return of Hanna to the United States sen ate. This puts the senator on "easy street" and his political fun eral procession will not occur, not withstanding the predictions of Willie Bryan. nissoLirnojr notice.

George W. Dillard died at his residence in the city at 9:45 Sunday night from heart disease. Death came very sudden and unexpected. Sunday morning he was attacked with colic a trouble which he had experienced at periods for sometime oasL Dr. McCabewas called and A. gave a hypodermic injection, which resulted in some relief. The Doc tor again visited his patient at five o'clock in the evening and thelatter complaining that he was not feeling so well, another light injection was Sfiven and reliet followed. About 9:45 Mr. Dillard, while sitting in a chair by the fire cohiplained of feel ing sick at his stomach and thought he would have to vomit. He started to get up to reach a vessel, fell heavily across a lounge and expired almost instantly.makingonlvahalf dozen gasps for breath after he fell. The horror stricken wife sent to the neighbors for help and Dr. Mc Cabe summoned but the spirit had taken its flight. George W. Dillard was born in Christian connty.Kentucky in 1S49. When about fourteen years of age he left home and entered the ser vice of the United States govern ment on board of one of the war vessels on the Mississippi river and remained in the service until the close of the war. The vessel on which he was stationed participa ted in a number of engagements with the rebel warships and forts, and he suffered disabilities by reason of which he was recently granted a pension by the govern ment. At the close of the civil war he enlisted in the regular army and in July, 1S66 came to old Fort McPherson as a private in the Sec ond United States Cavalry. He re mained in the service until 1S69 when he was mustered out. He then went to his old home in Ken tucky where he remained a year or two. Returning to Ft. McPher son, he secured a position at the post which he filled until 15J3 when he came to Norfe-Blatte and ac cepted a position with Foley & Senter, who were then conducting a general store. A few months af ter he secured a position on the Union Pacific as a fireman and was later promoted to engineer. This latter position he held until 1S94 when he purchased the coal yards then conducted by Smith Clark.and in which business he has since been engaged. The deceased was married to Miss Carrie Ottman in this city in 1SS1, and as a result of that union three children cere born, Romane. now aged fiifteen. Clarence aged thirteen and Kathrvn aged about nine; the wife and children surviv- the Brotherhood of Engineers, Knijrhts ct Pvthias and the the An cient Order ol United Workmen. The funeral will be held at the Methodist church at 2:30 to-morrow j afternoon. i ing. In the death of George Dillard North Platte loses an old, honored and highly esteemed citizen, and one whom we will all greatly miss. Possessed of a naturally genial na ture and of great sociability he had a very large circle of acquaintances, and while his positive convictions and emphatic declaration sometimes made him temporary enemies. there is not a man who will gainsay the statement that he was honest and sincere in whatever matter he es poused or opposed, and if shown he was wrong was ever ready to admit it. Mr. Dillard was of a gen erous nature, and while he never paraded his acts of charity, many unfortunates who have lived in North Platte will attest to his gen erosity. He was imbued with a spirit of energy and progressive ness and was always a warm advo cate of any measure pertaining to the welfare of the city and its peo ple. In fact he was a man any town could ill afford to lose, and his demise in the prime of life has SATLBOAD SOTSS. f FREE ! This Beautiful BRONZE CLOCK causea genuine sorrow in North Platte.

The swiftest run ever made over making the 123 miles in 117 min utes, which included a stop at Julesburg. The run from Julesburg to North Platte, SI miles, was made in 74 minutes. Engineer Fred erirkson started out of this station with the train, but as he did not make the necessary time he was re lieved at Lexington and Engineer White placed in charge. The time made by the train on the Second and First districts was not report ed, other than the run of 62 miles from Grand Island to Columbus was made in 54 minutes. The 516 miles was covered in 559 minutes, which included eleven stops, three of which were to change engines. Figuring four minutes to each stop, the actual running time for the en tire distance was fully a mile per minute. Stuart's run on the Third district broke all records, and was the swiftest during the entire trip, i Four Engine crews were pulled off the Second district yesterday. Roy Vernon went to Omaha yes terday as an extra baggageman on the third section of No. 2. There were three section of No. 2 yesterday, the gulf connection ar riving on time, the second section at eleven o'clock and the third at 2.15. C. E. Norton, who took a thirty day vacation following the Jules burg collision, resumed his run on the road Saturday. The extra switch engine which had been assisting wi th the work in the yards for several months, was taken off the latter part of the week. This places Hugh Bird on the list of extra engineers. President George Gould of the Missouri Pacific has is issued a proc lamation restoring the wages of fifteen thousand employes of that road to the standard paid prior to 1893. This restoration of wages range from five to tweatv per cent. The proctematiou was issued on Thanksgiving day, a very appro priate time.

Cheyney considers the result of the recent election in Lincoln county a great defeat for thepopolist party. He realises that upon him depends the hercalean task of -making over the party: discarding such men as Relliher. Holcorab. Buchan an and others who are in the party for what they can sret out of it. Of course Mr. Cheyney is different from these men. He would continue to ran a populist paper in Lincoln county even if be did not receive the county publishing-at full legal rates, or patronage ot the sberiiTs ofSce. In bis great fight for principle pat ronage cuts no figure (?) with Mr. Cheyney. He came to Lincoln county from Washington for the express purpose ot educating the people, and as we look over the Lincoln county returns we are led to exclaim, let the good work go on.
