The republicans of the state arc a unit in the expression that the state ticket nominated last week is the strongest that has been made in many years. With the feeling' of confidence inspired by the ticket republicans will go into the cam paign with unusual vigor. Having been given the best the state convention had at its com mand, Roscwatcr should "ring off" on Thurston and devote his energy to helping carry Nebraska for Mc Kinlcy. The rote received by Thurston as compared with that received by Roscwatcr, should be all the "vindication" that the latter needs. TiiK advance guard of the dele gates to the populist national con vention arc now assembling at Slouix Falls, and ihc nominations will probably be made Friday. It is conceded that Bryan will be nominated for president, but the vice-presidential nominee is likely to be named only after a hard fight. For the latter office the candidates are Taylor, of Illinois, Sulzer of New York and Towne of Minne sota. Furnas county, about eighty tnilcs southeast of us, was visited by a very destructive wind and hail storm Saturday evening, Some of the hail which fell meas ured nine inches in circumference and thousands of window lights were broken and shingles were broken into splinters. The wind destroyed a large number of houses, barns, and one church, and a number of people were injured. Considerable stock was also killed. Whims the eastern democrats arc formulating plans to shut out the sacred ratio of 16 to 1 in, the coming Kansas City platiorm, John P. Altgeld sayo the very moment Bryan consents to modify the Chicago platform in any partic ular he will be a dead duck. And there you have it. On the money plank in the platform the western and eastern democrats arc divided and it ts questionable if any com promise which will be satisfactory to both can be. effected. By means of a copious extract from the scriptures Mr. Bert Hitch cock, of the Omaha World-Herald, makes out a case in which the re publicans arc the Pharisees of the present epoch, standing up and boasting of their good deeds, while the pops arc the publican who went out into a corner and smote him self on the breast and cried "God be merciful to me a sinner." If the pops arc at last convicted of sin, there h hope for them of course, but the comparison will doubtless look odious to most of them when they read it in the World-Herald. Journal. Much stress is laid upon the fact that New York swings like a pen dulum in national campaigns, and that it's the democracy's turn this year. New York went republican for Lincoln in 18(4; democratic for Seymour in 1808, republican for Grant in 1872, democratic for Tilden in 1876, republican for Garfield in 1880, democratic for Cleveland in 1884, republican for Harrison in 1888, democratic for Cleveland in 1892 and republican lor McKinley in 1896. The record of the pendu lum points to Bryan in New York this j ear, but that is about the only sign that he will curry that state. Tug local lUBionists arc said to .be lit a quandary as to who to nomiuatc for county attor ncy, Mr. Muldoou seems to be firbt choice of all, but it is under stood he does not want the office. Edmonds and Grant "arc seeking xiie nomination, uui neither are satisfactory to the Icadcrp, who arc inclined to believe they arc not strong candidates, Both are demo crats and this also is objectionable to a number of populists who want the nominee to bo of their particu lar stripe. Parsons is also said to be a candidate for the nomination, out as ne was ucieateu two years ago, the leaders do not consider it policy to nominate bun again. TilK principal grand stand play on July Fourth will be the oratory on the Declaration of Independence at Kansas City. The democratic party will claim a monopoly on the Declaration of Independence and consecrate itself, giving at the same time the warning that the country will fall if the Ncbraskau is not elected. Four years ago this country was going to fall if the Declaration of Independence was not adhered to and this country would not coin the "money of the constitution" without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation. The cry was recognized as the usuul democratic bluff and the people heeded it not. And today they arc congratulating themselves over the result. What hope is there that the bluff will go this time? Grand Island Independent. Ouk farmers, in the main, act as patriotism dictates, as prudence counsels; that know what the as cendancy of the, republican parly means to the American farmer. There are figures at hand, remarks the Cincinnati Commercial, that appeal on this head to the sound common bciibc of the agriculturists of America. The farm value of live stock in this country in 1891 was, for instance, $2,329,787,770. In 1893, under the Harrison, repub lican administration, these figures went up to $2,483,506,681. Then came Grovcr Cleveland's four years of industrial gloom and agricultur al disaster, until, in 1897 when the republicans, imperatively recalled by the country to take charge of its government, returned to office, the farm value oi live stock had gone down to $1,665,414,612. These tour years of democratic depression brought forth populism, socialism and the deformed and disfigured democracy known as Bryamsm. It is now three years since President McKinley took office and the value of live stock has in that time risen again by $557,000,000. ADDITIONAL LOCAL. II. S.

The washing out of the llimsy dam across the branch of the river south of town, and the consequent flood of water which prevented the south Bide people from reaching town, has brought down upon the heads of the county commissioners very emphatic denunciations for having torn out the bridge and GA N CER Time was wiicn Cancer wa9 considered na Incurable as leprosy. Physicians and friends could vve little relief or encouragement to one afllictcd with this terrible disease. Hvcn now doctors know of no remedy for this fearful malady ; while admitting H to he n blood disease, they still Insist that there is no hope outside of a surgical operation, and advise you to have the Cancer cut out, hut nt the same time cannot assure von that it will not return. You may cut or draw out the sore, but another will conic in its place, for the disease is in the blood is deep-seated and destructive, and beyond the reach of the surgeon's knife or caustic, flesh-destroying plasters. The blood must be purified and strengthened, the system relieved of all poisonous, effete matte; before the Cancer core will heal. S. S. S. is the only medicine that can overcome this powerful and contaminating poison and force it out of the blood. It builds up and invigorates the old, and supplies new, rich, life-giving blood. S.S. S. is a purely vegetable remedy : no mineral can be found in it; the roots and herbs from which itjs made contain powerful purifying properties that net directly upon the blood system and moke a safe and permanent cure of Cancer.

And candor compels us to admit that the de nunciations arc well merited. In tearing out the bridge and erecting the dam, the commissioners un doubtedly thought they were doing an act which in the end would save the county considerable money; their intentions were good, but their judgment was extremely poor. Had they erected a sheet piling dam, it might have with stood the Hoods, but a mere sand dam is about as lasting in flood time as a chunk ot ice in the fire box of a locomotive. There are two ways. to remedy the result of this piece of lack of judgment. One is to replace the bridge, the other to build a pile dam. One is about as costly as the other, and the former would probably prove the most satisfactory, Since the above was put in type the commis sioners have decided to replace the bridge. J. 10.
