The defendant was ad judged guilty. Republicans to a man should vote for Linnvood Skinner for city clerk a youug man, in every waT qualified for the position and one who certainly de serves the earnest support of his party. Personal. Will the lady who stop ped a few moments on tha northeast cor ner of Sixth and Main streets about 10 o'clock Kst Tuesday night pleaso ad dress John Findley, city. Correspon dence strictly confidential. William Hayes and Dan. Smith for members of the school board are two men particularly qualified for that posi tion. Every republican- owes it to him self that they should "be ejected by hand some majorities. Dr. Schildknecht came in this today from a medical visit to the home of Olan Cole, who lives about four miles south west of town. r. Cole's son, aged about four years is suffering from typhoid and pneumonia fever. His case is con sidered very serious. The winning ticket was nominated at the republican city convention last night; one that addresses itself to the best people f our city who are in favor of pushing the town into the front rank, who are in favor of city improvements and who arc heartily in accord with all the best interests of the city, irrespective of party lines. The last time that J. II. Waterman was a candidate for city treasurer he de feated one of the most popular democrats in this city, Hon. John R. Cox. If James Patterson, Jr., is to cross swords with our Henry ha will discover that he has ma do a bad mistake, and that a political funeral only awaits their Jiuimie for his hardihood in tackling so good a man. "Whit is a hog?" was aked of a little boy lately. "Why, when a little pig grows up to be a man, then he's a hog." There's t.vo or three such hogs in this city who aro continually shaking hands and vowing eternal friendship to the whole human race, and at tho same time poking their snouts into everybody's business and using every effort to raise scandal and injure som?ona's reputation. Wc would like to publish their names, although it is not necessary, at two of them Uiv the merited scorn ef the Brotherhood and that of every honest citizen. The republicans of tho first ward have concluded to leave the nomination for councilman open until tonight when, iu all probability, Dr. A. Salisbury will be nominated as he is tho choics of a large number of citizens irrespective of I . -- r 1" - i - ! party, vr. Daiisoory is a pusuing, reso lute young man and will not only favor ' public improvements, but will put his khoulder to the wheel and sec that tb old machine mores aheai; tho flrst ward would indeed be fortunate to secure his election as councilman. While the Dr. does not, in any view of the case, desire the nomination, The Herald under stands that he is willing to make the race if it is the unanimous desire of his friends that he should do so. On Monday night, Roland Reed mads his 'r'entree as Dick Smythe, th nervy hero of Marsden's Cheek, to a full liouie. The comedy is very laughable, and its humorous element is relieved by the introduction of certain dramatic epi sodes. The character of Smythe is as original to the stage as Bard well Slote or SamT of Postn, and Mr. Reed plays it with a rre sense of what constitutes gen uine fun. Throughout the evening, while he was on the stage, the audience laughed continuously. Reed's songs, particularly "I'm a Perfect New York dnde," made hits, and wen loudly re de manded. The star has elaborated his performance greatly since we saw him last at the Fourteenth Street Theater, and it is even more exhilarating and enjoya ble than it then was. N. Y. Tribune, A HARMONIOUS MEETING. Tho City Republican Convention Well Done A Strong Ticket The convention was called to order at 8 p. in. by A. N. Sullivan, chairman of central committee, and on motion J. W. Johnson was elected chairman and II. C. Hi chic secretary. The credentials of the different wards were then handed to the secretary, and upon reading the same were approved by the convention. The following resolution was offered and unanimously adopted. It speaks for itself, and is a platform that all gosdeit - zens, irrespective of party, should stand upon : Jiesolced, That the Republican party of PUttsniouth City is in favor of libeial public improvements within our city dur- ncr the coniin municirml v...-.r nnd insist that our candidaU-n shall pledge them- r-tlves to do all within their power to advance the material interests of our city, by carrying forward to a speedy comple- tii the delayed pavement of Main street and its crossings, and tlir rnninltrinn of the present system of storm sewerage as now eftimatcil and tftloptcd by the pres- " 1 cut city council, and for an extension of such street pavament and sewerage as fast as the needs. of our city and the de mands of property owners shall demand the same: also, that we are in favor of an extension of water and ga3 mains within the city to accomodate and bene fit the tax-payers equally; and also, that we favor the opening and grading of such public streets to and from the sevcr eral additions of our city as will accom modate the residents thereof, and furnish them fair facilities to and from the busi ness portions of the city. And further, that as delays are dangerous, we,, as Re publicans, together with our nomi nees both for Mayor and Counciimen, pledge to the citizens of Plattsmouth our united energies to assist by every means in our power to push all improvements now pending to a speedy completion. The convention then proceeded to the nomination of city officers. A. N. Sulli van, Esq., in an eloquent speech, which was warmly seconded by Hon. R. B, Windham, placed in nomination F. M Richey for the ofiiec of Mayor. The nomination was made unanimous, and Mr. Richey coming forward thanked the eouyention for the nomination and ac cepted the same, endorsing the resolution in the most hearty manner. J. 11. Waterman was then placed in nomination for Treasurer by M. D. Polk, and as before the nomination was made unanimous, and Henry coming to the front made a short manly speech, which was well received. The next nomination in order was City Clerk. Linwood E. Skinner was placed in nomination by C. M. Wead, seconded by Byron Clark, and following the rule was made unanimous. .During the proceedings the various candidates were passing the cigars freely all over the house, and good humor pre vailed everywhere. But right here the trouble commenced. The following vtT3 placed in nomination for Police Judge, and the ballots resulted as fol lows, A. N. Sullivan and M. D. Polk be ing appoiuted as tellers by the chair : 1st ballot: Willet Pottenger, 19; L. C. Stiles, 15; M. O. Donohoe, 10; D. K. fiarr, 3; total 53. No choice. 2nd bollot: Pottenger 19, Stiles 17, P. P. Gass 4, Donahoc 14; total 54. No choice. 3rd ballot: Pottenger 20, Stiles 17, Donahoe, IS, Gass 1; total 56. No choice. 4th ballot: Stiles 17, Pottenger 22, Donahoe 14, Gass 5. Blank 2; total 60. No choice. 5th ballot: Stiles 25. Pottencer 22. Donahoe 3, Gass G; total 5G. No choice. Gth ballot: Stiles 32, Pottenger 20, Gass 3; total 53. At the close of the 5th ballot M. O. Donahoe withdrew his name in favor of the "man who gets it," and the Gth bal lot resulted in the nomination of L. C. Stiles for the office of Police Judge, and on motion the same was made unanimous. The convention then unanimously nominated Wm. Hays of the 3rd ward and D. B. Smith of the 4th ward as can didates for members of the school board. A. N. Sul ivan was then named as the chairman of city central committee. The ward committeemen reported were 1st ward, M. D. Polk; 2nd ward, J. W. Johnson; 3rd ward, S. C. Green; 4th ward, Wash Smith. The convention then adjourned, after, in our opinion, haviug placed in the field their strongest possible ticket. There is a soci ety in this city com posed of ladies who meet at their respec tive residences in rotation twice a month for social improvement. The name of tha organization is "Koffee Klatsch," which translated by our Volapuk editor, means, "For goodness sake, don't say I told you!" Their last meeting was'at the home of Mrs. W. W. Drummond yester day afternoon. The members present were Mrs. H. E. Palmer, president; Mrs. Sam Atwood. Mrs. C. M. Wead, Mrs. F. E. White, Mrs. Sam Waugh, Mrs. D. A. Campbell and Mrs. R. B. Windham. Visiting ladies were; Mrs. II. A. Sturgess of Omaha, Miss Paul, and Misses Kate and Amelia Vallery. The jury at the coroner's inquest to lay arrived at the conclusion that Wes ley Eakcr"died from some cause unknown I to us. ' The cost of a chemical analysis for posion is from $50 to $500. We will giro a fall report in tomorrow's issue. I THE SLIMY, SOCIETY 8NCAK- Seeks Shame Shronded In Sorrow ful Sympathy. "Rottenness is necessary to perfection, said the Olive to the Medlar," and so it is with the dispositio n of the sneak. A mean man is a disgrace to humanity, and to the parents who gave him birth, if I they had one spark of humanity in their I bosoms. This may appear exaggerated, but it is not. Hell has no terrors, Wr heaven hope fer the sneak. Fornication, I adultery and drink are only slight-sins in comparison with the abominable sin 1 of being a sneak. A sneak is a scrufu j 'oua abortion on the face of houesty, j born in the lap of misery and nursed in the arms of shame. Me is so mean that he jBCeive8 hi3 mother and the attendant ....... . r. .. pliy born a day after the expecieu time. "Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn." AVliem God crcatcd the utll thcre wenj ,,ut two ., , , , 8ns; aow "iere are ihousnniw wno warn .. .. , . , . ,. . . tc earth, and would not divide up with the members of their own family. No action is too mean for such spawn of the earth as a sneak. If they were on the waves or an arctic expedition they would have no compunction to "act the canibal and devour their fellow creature. In time of famine they would think noth ing of eating a child that had died with small-pox, or "accept a reward from a catarrh specialist for an operation too disgusting to mention. A sneak is two mean to shed a teAr over his denrcbt relative, for fear he was depriving his body of omc nutriment. He would get the body of his wife cre mated to save funeral expenses, save the ashes, and in icy weather sprinkle them over the door-step so that his second wife wouldn't fall down. Birds, music. flowers and pictures have no charm for him, and he would hasten his own igno ble existence, by refusing to have a min ister or physician attend him on the point of death. Relatives would finish the program by rejoicing at his funeral and squandering his miserly savings in riot- ous living, the earth of his grave would be so impregnated with the efihivia. of his carcass that the grass would not grow above him, and when the last trumpet sounds at the judgment day, thcre would be such an inhuman record ngainst him, that the angels would be compelled to refuse him admittance to that abode where every sinner has a chance to go, only the "sneak." A Communication Crucified. An article appeared in yesterday's Journal entitled a "Cedar Creek Sar casm" and perporting to be a communi cation from that place iu which some choice spitlets are showered upon our de voted head. Sherman, its too transparent. You wrote that article yourself. It was manufactured in your sacred alcove among the archi yes of the past. We de fy you to produce that manuscript and the envelope which is supposed to have contained it. The at tide about the fun eral, to which you have reference, appear ed in last Monday's issue and there has not been a Herald delivered in Cedar Creek since. Twenty-five copies of the weekly went there yesterday. If you had waited until today your story would have appeared plauiible. You were a little "too previous." VThenever the Journal wants to hit anybody, it is always in the form of a communication, or "we heard on the streets today." The "swelled head bubbling' of the Herald reporter is de licious. Thanks.
