Q. STEwART , Chairman. FRED RENNER , Secretary. GENIAL JACK MACCOLL would like to be governor and stand u P for Nebraska , and he don't care who knows it. SENATOR MANDERSON has been a distinguished success in every activity of his honorable and clean career , and THE TRIBUNE does not expect Nebraska to repudiate - so able and manly a son. IN view of the Nebraska national i delegation unseemly squabble , the average Nebraska Republican can not help feeling humiliating at being "allowed" to do so and so their own public servants. SENATOR THURSTON has President - , dent Cleveland's personal pronoun habit in a most virulent form. The senator , speaking seriously , is a disappointment to many of his most ardent admirers. That "cer- tain well known corporation" , the Burlington , liar quite unnerved the senator and he is many a holy show of himself , in some directions - tions of an unexpected source.

Fall grain looks fine and every warm day talks. Talbot Vivian has been quite ill but is around again. Preparations are being made forr the Easter exercises. Arthur Doyle is back from the Loup , where has been since the holidays. "Willie" Moll arrived from Denver - ver on Sunday. Now for the next act in the drama. Ducks and geese are plentiful- so are the hunters-but we have heard of very few fatalities to the former so far. Dick Hanlein says that unless his cook returns soon he proposes to get another. He is quite emphatic - phatic in this matter. William Ketchr and brother , who moved to Louisiana a year ago , recently disposed of a large portion - tion of their rice crop of four thousand bushels at six cents per bushel. Corn at 15 cents beats that. There is no money in profes- sions. In proof of this we cite two instances : Dr. Harlan , who has given up the practice of medicine and turned his attention to farming - ing , and now we are told that Rev. Vivian expects to sow a patch of wheat , in order to be sure of his bread. There was a large attendance at church , last Sabbath , in the evening - ing especially , when the church was uncomfortably crowded. Rev. Vivian preached in the' morning and Rev. Morris in the evening. Three new members were taken into the church after the morning b service. The farmer who is always behind with his work will manage to list b in a hundred acres or sothis , spring , and it is possible he will cultivate - vate ( ? ) two-thirds of this , and after - ter struggling over sunflowers which raise his wagon from the ground in his heroic efforts to husk his corn , this fall , declares that "this aiu't no farmin' country.
