STRAY O BSE R V AT IONS. No appointment Presidont MeKln loy has made has given such general satisfaction hh nas that of Chinch IIowo to bo consul general to tho Samoan islands. In tho llrst place, Ctiurch's many friends aro glad 10 sco him secuio an honorable and luorattvo position. Then tho pops aro shedding no tears at tho prospect of IIowo being unable to help man the pumps when thoir prize torpedo boat, the Cornell, makes its usual attempt to knock a holo in tho old republican ship this fall. And Col. Tom Majors, white re gretting to oo Ids old friend leave No maha county, realiziug that he will no longer bo able to receive invaluable advice pertaining to farm matters as cf yore, yet nobly represses his grief as lio reflects that Nemaha county's loss is Samoa's gain. The Sunonn islands are thirteen in number, with an area of about 2.00J square milts about the size of Custer county with a population of 00,000. Ten of tho islands, however, are barren, uuinliah ited iocls. Tho remaining three are very fertile and havo an area -it about 1,300 nquaro miles three times tho size of Nemaha county. Tho islands ate '100 miles lrom tho Eoejoe islands and not far from Disappointment island. They aro a littlo over G,()uo miles (lorn San Francisco air lino and oh, so far from Nemaha county. Tho islands aro under a protectorate controlled by the consuls general of Great Britain. Germany and the Unitid S ates. '1 ho consuls general do not al ways agree, so IIowo is likely to noo some times that will remind him of a Nemaha county republican conven tion. As wo remarked bofoio, Mr II wo'h appointment gives gonoial satisfaction. We heard a prominent Richardson county democrat say the other day, that while ho believed as a general thing in party loyalty, yet as John S Still! has made the host and most im part al judf.e the llrst district has cvei hail, he proprosod to support him it ho is a candidate for re-election in '09. And. tho same day wo heaid a populist who was disloyal enough lo remark, "Ah far as I am concerned, I would just us noon hoar Church Howe speak as to ho r Billy Btyan." Treason, brethren, I reason! The way Billy Kelligar and Edgar Foment! wept, because Church ITowo is going to leave the country is "highly ticklesome," to say the least. .
