It was an itnusal thing in political

flung at a presidential nominee. That
is what took place in this city Friday

One thing wils veiy notlclblo and

'Hie intense party Interest so much
in evidence in other years has been al
most entirely lacking this year. There
seems to be a genuine desire upon the
part of the ordinary voter to Hud the

thing of the past. Men now want to
know why and if you think that the
first man you meet does not know why
he Is for a certain candidate or a cer

The general feeling is that this is a
democratic year. The pretentions of
the republicans have been unmasked
and the people show a sure disposition
to turn to the democratic party for re
lief. The general sentiment is that it
is better to have a party untrained in
the Hit of government control to be in
power than it is to have a party that
knows all the methods of fraud and
deceit. No longer will the ordinary
voter turn to the republican party
with a feeling of safety. Its glorious
history has been scrutinized to closely

thinks. This is a democratic year and

Just now all eyes are turned toward
the gretit Chautauqua which will soon
be here. Never befoie have our peo
ple looked forward with keener utitl
clpatloii to a real platform treat. It
acenis almost out of the question to
expect hiicli an array of talent us we
are going to have. Somehow wu are
prone to think that wu live in a place
too small to ultrucl the really great
"but they are signed up uud wo know
that they will lie here. Of course we
know that they would not come if this
were the only place they would uppear
but when they arrange themselves in
to a circuit the mutter is easy, A
chuutatiquu such iih we will havu is an
Immense asset to any community.
Here we are entertained, instructed,
amused and educated. A great big
vacation fur a little bit of money, A
place where we can forget the daily
round of duty. A place where we cau
meet our friends uud reuew old ac
quaintances, be merry uud curry away
enough Ideas to last us another year.
Hats off to the Red Cloud'Chautauqua.
There is a genuine treat in store for
those who love music. The Chautau
qua management miudful of the wants
of the people selected, some of the very
best musical talent to be found In this
country. There is the Appolu Concert
company which is composed of bell
ringers, singers and muslulaus who
play nearly every known Instrument
There is the English Opera company
which sings everything from the coin
mon melodies to the most difficult
oratorios. They uppear In costumes
representing the Gypsies, the sailors,
the Uermau and others Then there
is Hy ion's Troubadours celebrated per
formers with the harp, tho 'ceolo. the
mxaphoue and the great organ chimes,
an Instrument fifteen feet long with
fortytwo pipes and one hundred twen
ty six tones.
It is no wonder that the management
this year Is so enthusiastic over the
aucoess ot this year's program. With
auch companies as these we can expect
peoplo to come from many miles. No
one ueed to go to the larger cities for
something good because we will have
as good as there is anywhere. Not
withstanding the excellence of the
program It hiu been decided that ow
Juk to a lariter attendance there will
be no necessity of raising the price of
the season tickets. '
No one would accuse Tom Auld ot
beliiK a humorist, yet lie has his fun,
fun of the deep satisfying kind. Not
long ago he sent Ulxby over to Europe
to have a good time, lllx was elated
at tlrst and poured out his grati
tude iu poetic verse, but by the time
lie lauded on foreign soil his tlrst
stanza breathed a most plaintive note
aud the next step he took carried him
aboard a bi liner bound for home.
We have no means of knowing just
what was the matter with dear old
lllxby, whether it was the great body
of water that surprised him ur the
longing for corn bread aud molasse,
nobody knows, he got homesick aud
came back. Needless to say all the
delights that Tom Auld had pictured
to himself iu the way of letters troui
the old country were rudely si. uttered.
He lost his fun but not his ambition.
Tom is 110 quitter and he does love Ms
fun so what does he do but iituke ur

News from the Ualliuiore convention
was eagerly awaited In thli city by
both Democrats and Republicans
Kvorjnne seemed to have a favorite
and as that favorite gained predictions
of his nomination would be mude only
to be replaced by expressions' of gloom
when the favorite lost. ground. It has
been auybody's light and all candidates
booked to win, Opluion was divided
as to whether Bryan acted wisely or
have lost none of its Interest when all
pacity as chaperon to a young man
who feels incapable of doing the con
tinent unattended. He tried it two
years ago, got as far as the outskirts
of Loudon aud returned home by first
boat, never even waiting to pay his
respects to the royal family. The name
of the unfortunate young man is Ami
L. Ulxby, u person of note in Nebras
ka chiefly because of his modesty. I
shall also be accompanied on the
journey by another noted Nebraskau,
not noted for the same reason as Ami
lllxby. The gentleman to whom I i '
fer is Mr. Kichard L. Metcalfe, a per
son who has great Influence over t!
wayward Mr. lllxby, and for that
reason he will prove very valuable to
the consummation of the plans of tl
philanthropic gentleman who will
finance the expedition. There are
some things which Nebraska people
do not know about Europe, In desire
to promote knowledge Mr. Thomas
Auld, a gentleman with a fad for help
ing humanity in all directions, has
asked Ami L. llixby to make the trip
abroad, accompanied by Mr Metcalfe
and Myself, the three of us being
under commission to write for Nebras
ka newspapers all information neces
sary for Nebraska to possess in order
to understand all things foreiyu. I
have been repeatedly warned by many
friends that I am taking great chances
by agreement to make a voyage as the
companion of Ami Ulxby, aud Indeed
Mr. Metcalfe and I have not been In
seuslble to the danger of it, but we
dare not let danger serve to make us
allow lack of appreciation of the
kindly offices of Mr, Thomas Auld.
