DEMOCRATIC CAUCUSES.
First and Second Words Meet and
Select Delegates.
Though it camo near raining pitchforks
Tuesday evening when a storm burst over
Alliance that was terrific enough to arouse
terror in the hearts of the brave, the, un
swerving discjples of Jefferson feared not
and at tho Appointed hour were promptly
on hand to see that tho ship of state was
saloly manned and the people's interests
properly lookd after. Although the
rain was enough to take the starch out of
most political enthusiasts, there were
good representations at the caucuses.
The first ward caucus was held at the
office of Wm. Mitchell. By unanimous
consent of those present, A. Triplctt was
chosen chairman and S. M. Smyser secre
tary. Then followed the selection of dele
gates to the county convention, which re
sulted as follows: Wm. Mitchell, John
O'Keefe, T. J. O'Keefe, Robt. Graham, A.
Triplctt, A. D. Now, L. Bucchsenstein,
H. K. Scham, Ed. Reardon,
At the second ward democratic caucus,
held at The Hbralp office, Lee Edwards
was chosen as chairman of the meeting.
The genial "Doctor" thanked the caucus
for the "unmerited recognition," stating
that he considered it a great honor to pre
side over a body of men who represented
the principles of the common people. Mr.
McGraw was selected secretary of the
caucus and incidentally remarked that it
seemed quite an honor to bo so recognized
after being taken for a delegate to the
republican county convention. The cau
cus then resolved itself into a committee
of the whole and elected thev following
named delegates to represent the Second
ward in the county convention to be held
at the court house next Saturday: Lee
Edwards, L. A. Berry, B. V. Reeves. W.
S. Ridgell, S". A. Miller, James Graham,
C. W. Brennan, F. J. Bitzold, John Hill.
People's Independent Caucuses.
Like the democrats of Alliance, the pop
ulists are not afraid of water. This fact
was demonstrated Tuesday night in the
good attendance at the caucus held to
select delegates to the county convention,
which is to take place tomorrow in this
city. Though there was discord and con
tention between the elements of the at
mosphere all afternoon and evening, peace
prevailed at the caucus and there was
complete unity and brotherly love. The
following delegates were selected to rep
resent the first ward: A. M. Da,ke, F. J.
Culver, J. E. White, A. D. 'Kodgers, B.
W. Young, T. W. McClain, J. A.
Wolverton, F. A. Hood, Robt. May. A.
D. Rodgers was elected chairman and F.
J. Culver secretary. ,
The second ward caucus was held at
the court home. J. P. Hazard was chosen
chairman and C. W. Jeffers secretary and
the following list of delegates was elected:
D. K. Spacht, C. W. Jeffers, J. W. Miller,
Lee Safford, O. Neff, J. P. Hazard, A. C.
Johnson, 'Eranest Lemke, Orville Owens,
The State Convention.
The democratic state convention held at
Columbus Wednesday evening was well
attended and proved a brilliant and har
monious affair. J. J. Sullivan was re
nominated for supreme judge and M. A.
Jones of Hastings and Dr. Earnest O.
Weber of Valparaiso for regents. Mr.
Sullivan's as well as the'regent candidates'
nominations were made by acclamation.
The populists state convention, held at
Grand Island the same day, endorsed
these nominees amid great applause.
The men placed in nomination are
worthy the honor conferred on them and
the voters of the state of Nebraska can
find in them men who are deserving of
the votes of every citizen who decides
upon a candidate's qualification by his
past record.
The committee on resolutions at the
democratic convention drew up the follow
ing resolutions, which were passed by that
body amid great applause:
We, the democrats of Nebraska, in con
vention assembled, reaffirm our faith in
the principles of the party as enunqiatcd
in the last national platform adopted at
Kansas City.
We denounce the national republican
administration for its failure to carry out
its promises heretofore made and its sub
servience to special interest at the expense
of and detriment of the public at large.
We are unalterably opposed to any form
of asset currency legislation and to any
legislation of the character of the Aldrich
bill.
We believe the judiciary to be the
cornerstope of American government, both
state and national. Upon its ability, in
dependence and integrity rests the future
of American institutions. We therefore
demand that the judiciary of this state be
kept free from partisan bias and the undue
influence of special and corporate interests.
We commend to the voters of Nebraska
the record of John J. Sullivan as embody
ing our ideas of the high character the
judiciary ought toentertain.
Ohio for Tom Johnson..
Tom Johnson, mayor of Cleveland, was
nominated for governor of Ohio at the
convention at Columbus Wednesday. The
honorable Tom and the democrats of the
Buckeye state are to be congratulated
upon the stand taken in adopting the prin
ciples of democracy as enunciated by the
Kansas City platform, and the action of
those brave and fearless democrats should
be a lesson to the weak-kneed party men
of Iowa who failed to sustain the convic
tions of their principles at their late state
convention. Let the fearless stand taken
by Ohio and Nebraska democrats give
them courage to stand by the principles
of J eff erson. The Lord always did hate a
coward, political or otherwise.
AMERICAN VICE CONSUL ASSASSINATED
A cablegram received by tlio Etatc
department at Washington from Min
ister Lcischman nt Constantinople last

elsscn, United States vice consul at

ADVERTffEiENTSARE NEWS.
Represent the Intelligent Effort of
Successful Business Men.
The New York Journal says that there
are some people who have tho impression
that the information to be gleaned from a
newspaper is found only in its news
columns.
Let such people read carefully the ad
vertising columns of a newspaper.
Let them take as an object lesson the
advertising pages in just one issue of their
local newspaper. This object lesson will
prove a revelation to them. They will
find not only many matters of interest to
them, but they will by reading advertise
ments find that .they can keep in touch
with the business pulse of the community.
The business man will find an inspiration
in reading his own uds. and those of his
business neighbors, He will become, en
thusiastic and his efforts in his business
will be doubled. It is tho enthusiastic
effort of the business men of a community
that makes that community grow from a
town to a city.
The want ads are an index to not only
small possibilities, but to tho largest trans
actions. The businessman can keep post
ed on the values of real estate by reading
these little ads.
Advertisements are business news, and
this news is just as important as telegraph
or local news. The biggest advertiser has
the biggest store.
