fractional strife existing in the republi
can ranks in Box Butte county, It
expresses itself most forcibly iu the
following language:
"It is a shame and disgrace that
a county nominally republican,
such as Box Butfe is, should place
its political affairs in tlic control of
the opposition."
As to the editor of The Herald
feeling ill at easo regarding the retire
ment of ths present republican chair
man for that of younger and more
active timber, we'll take our chances.
Just proceed with the procession and
we'll try and keep up.

THE -WAR IS ENDED
Peace Negotiations Between Japan
pnd Russia Concluded at Ports
mouth Tuesday.
The html session ot the peace com
mission held at Portsmouth, N. H.,
Tuesday morning culminated in an
agreement which put an end to the Japanese-Russian
war, and tho world re
joices that end as come to tho bloody
butchery in which so many lives were
sacriftcd and homes mado desolate.
According to the peace agreements
Russia retains half of Sakhalin and
foregoes indemnity, surrender of in
terned warships and limitation of naval
power. The envoys are at work on a
formal treaty of peace and armistice
will bo arranged. It is tho general
opinion of those familiar with diplomat
ic affairs, that Mr. Witte, the Russian
representative, accomplished great
success in behalf of his country.
Agrees With The Herald.
The Herald's review on county
politics, published last week, has been
the cause of stirring up the animals
and in Tuesday's issue the Alliance
Times replies to the item in question
and sustains the same in every vital
point but one and that is the reference
made to our honorable citizen, Captain
Corbin. The Herald simply made
the statement that there was a move
on foot to select another chairman for
the Republican central committee on
the grounds that the Captain had served
his time and that it would be to the
good of the party to select some youug
er man for the position. In this (he
Times sees a great wrong to Captain
Corbin. Had the editor been fair
enough to reprint tho full comment on
the chairmanship it would have put us
in the true light, which would cast no
reflection whatever on Captain Corbin.
We kuow just as well as the editor of
the Times the untiring energy of the
old chairman and his effective cam
paigning, for he made us get up and
hustle during every campaigu he man
aged. But as far as slandering Cap
tain Corbin, the Times is entirely mis
taken for there is no one who has
greater respect for the battle-scarred
veteran than The Herald. So much
for Captain Corbin.
Tee Herald is pleased to see the
frank, open concession on the part of
the Times, when it acknowledges the
V. W. Brown, fireman, has left the
service.
Edgincer C. E, Wills went to Denver
to spend a few Uaya. .
Mrs B. L. Buffls returned from a

future as it is rumored that he has been
offered the Beatrice station.
H. J. German, formerly chief clerk
to general superintendent, was in Alli
ance Saturday. He came up to take
his driving horso down to Lincoln. Mr.
German is now working for the Ameri
can Express compauy.

tho river, has gone to the Wabash,
where he will accept a better position
in the motive power department. F.
E. Kennedy of Sheridan, Wyo., will be
promoted to be general boiler
inspector, taking Mr. Wells place.
Last Saturday night on the Sheridan
division near Wcssex, a stock extra col
lided. No. 45 was just pulling in on
the passing track when the stock train
ran into it, ditching the engine on the
stock extra and several cars. There
were about three cars of cattle killed.
Fireman Johnson of the stock extra was
pinioned under the engine for several
hours, he had several slight injuries
but nothing serious.
