THE scenein district court this morn
ing reflected no credit on the attorney
who participated in it. The efforts to
bulldoze the court were ineffectual and
al conduct in with-
drawing from the case because the
couit's rulings did not suit him met
with the rebuke it properly deserved.
SOME POLITICAL ASPIRANTS.
Weeping Water Republican.
The Nehawka Register suggests the
name of E. M. Pollard for governor.
This paper seconds the nomination.
Mr. Pollard is a gocd, capable man,
and we believe with his splendid abil
ity for organization he could carry the
party to victory.
J. A. Donelan, J. I. Corley and Fred
flnrddr. three nominees on the license
ticket, sent written declinations to the
city clerk, but as they were not sworn
to the names of these gentlemen will
appear on the ballots. Mr. Donelan
requests the Republican to say that he
declined in good faith and he did not
e-rnect his name would appear on the
ballots. He hopes no one will vote for
him, as he will not qualify if he should
ba elected.
Mr. Thompson of Lincoln is "gain
an aspirant for senatorial honors.
The republicans of this state have not
forgotten that after Mr. Thompson
saw that he might secure the prize he
failed to secure republicans enougn,
however, who were willing to go back
on their party caucus to make the
scheme win. This bit of treachery on
Mr. Thompson's part should, and we
believe it has, buried him for all time
as a possible candidate for office in the
republican party. A man who will
sell his party out for his own selfish
ends is capable of doing great wrong
in the United' States senate and he
should not be trusted for a moment.

Governor Poynler issued a statement
this morning of the result of his in
vestigation at Beatrice last ween., ex
onerating Dr. Lang from all charges
preferred against him but that of being
incapable of governing his subordin
ates. Governor Poynter announces
that Dr. Lang voluntarily tendered his
resignation, but in tne light ol tne
fight waged during the past few months
by the superintendent of the Beatrice
institution, it is the general impression
that he was given the alternative of
resigning or being discharged.
It is announced thatDr. Deering will
be permitted to choose his own stew
ard and that Governor Poynter will
accept his recommendation and appoint
the man preferred.

On being asked the other day to what
he attributed his long life and good
i,..ith Wm M. "Evarts reDlied: I do
not know, unless it is that I never took
any exercise." The questioner re
garded this as a joke, of course, but it
is a fact that the ex-senator objects to
any physical exertion, and often hires
a cab to avoid walking a block.

Sadden Death in the Field.
John Boedecker, living two miles
scuth of Louisville, was at work plow
ing in his field yesterday morning.
At about 11:30 o'clock he brought his
team to one end of a furrow, turned
the team about as if to start back on
the next furrow. He then dropped the
lines, took his hands from the plow
bandies, and fell forward on bis face
dead. His little four-year-old-3on had
been in the field with him, and when
be saw his father fall, ran to him and
tried to arouse him by his cries, but to
no purpose, and he ran to tne uouse
and told his mother. Word was soon
sent to town, and Coroner Gass was
telephoned for. No inquest was found
necessary, however, as it was apparent
that he had died of heart failure.
Deceased was about twenty-eight
years of age, and leaves a widow and
ihn snn ahnve sDoken of. He was in
apparent good health, and his sudden charea
. . . l. . . . t r r tViA r r m I
demise was a Breni tuim .w -"
munity. He was the son of Theodore
Boedecker, one of the pioneers of that
vicinity, and was farming on the home
nlace. His brothers, Louis, of Louis-
oillp and Charles H.. living west of
Murray, are well known residents of
the county.
The funeral has ben set for tomor
row at 2 o'clock, from the residence
the old Boedeker homestead.
Pound For the Defendant.
The case of Brenizer vs. Stam,
which was on trial to a jury yesterday
in Justice Archer's court, was com
n'eted last evening, the jury bringing
i n ii VP rdirtt f r the defense. The suit
was on a note given in Custer county
as a commission for a loan. The de
fense claimed the note, in addition to
ihn Interest eivea on the loan made it
HUV c-
usurious. The jury may have thought
both defenses proven. Nobody but the
jury knows, however.
