opportunities ever enjoyed by the people of
any nation known to human history.
Recognizing the leading forces which have
produced such splendid results , we reassert
our unwavering faith in the principles of reciprocity -

ametalism on the one hand or gold monomet-
alism on the other , and that we have faith in
the ability of the Republican party to formulate -
late and maintain a plan that will insure this ;
and we heartily endorse the record of the

The City Election.
Tuesday's city election was one of the quietest -
est in years , being almost entirely devoid of
interest. There was practically but one ticket
in the field , the petition ticket gathering but
small force. The only contest that gate any
promise of being close wns over the clerkship ,
but even that proved disappointing , for Low-
man's plurality was 33
The day was absolutely devoid of incident ,
and the vote cast was about one-half the usual
numller , amounting to a total of 258 for mayor.

At the meeting of the Y. P. S. C. E. at the
Coleman school house on last Sunday evening
between ninety-five and a hundred were pres-
ent. That evening was the monthly consecration -
tion meeting. After these exercises closed a
lengthy and enjoyable Easter program was
carried out , which was very interesting and
highly instructive. The society numbers
nearly fifty now , and several have signified
their intention of becoming members.
On last Monday , a minister in the Methodist -
dist church suggested that he might call at the
Coleman school house occasionally on Sabbath -
bath evenings and talk to the people a short
time. IIe was told the "Y. P. S. E. C. meets
every Sunday evening , and when their meeting -
ing closed , if he had anything to say , he might
say it" . It is our unqualified opinion that if
left to a vote of the society , nine in ten would
vote for his coming , and would.gladly and.
willingly divide time with him , and extend to
him the right hand of good will and fellow-
ship.

THE pnst two or three years
have taught us that we must not
put our faith' all in one kind of a
crop , but to raise mole of a variety
of grains. \\Theft any one kind of
grain is a good price every one
seems to have a spreading desire
to put in all ho can of this one
kind. So it is with the stock bus-
iness. About eleven or twelve
years ago every body was buying
cows and heifers and paying prices
that were out of reason , and shipping -
ping west to be used on the
ranches , and now for the last four
or five years the stock market has
been flooded with this , same kind
of stock till t1i' prices have gone
below what they should be for
profit in the business. The turning -
ing point in cattle is here , and
horses are sure to be better in the
near future. Why not every one
try and help correct anti regulate
this error-Nebraska Farmer.
