W nhm. IRA L. BAKE, Editor and Propbietob SUBSCRIPTION KATES. Bctret lheKorikPleKebrta) f tcond-claf (setter. WEDNESDAY, DEC. 17, 18&). J.v M. Jnr.T succeeds Wade' Hampton ::s United States Senator from Sculh Carolina. Mr. Trbvs election is tie iBrst triumph of the Farmer's Alliance in a senatorial contest. TflE Kwirnev New Era says: The "honci-t rcars" who voted recently "for'Te'ftom." rroFperity and a re vival of trade. are silently waiting, for the "good times" anticipated. It has been suggested that if Senator Stanford has really at heart the welfare of the poor tax pavers be should loan them money instead of asking the government todo so. Stanfords pile of lucre if estimated at eighty millions. Kansas isTapidly gaining a repu tation as being the breeding ground for political parties, the latest one Vine called the Knights of Keci procitv. The title is favorable, but as the organization is a secret one it will probably die young. At present the politics of Kansas is badly dis turbed. C. D. SHKADER,of Logan county, is an aspirant for the speakership of the lower bouse and it is said he has a fair chance of being elected. Shradcr could handle the farmer legislators about as well as any one, but there are a few Republican and Democratic members who may make it a little warm for him.. However he has our indorsement for the position. : The Logan county alliance passed a resolution last week petitioning the coming legislature to appropri ate at least S500,000 for the purpose of supplying those farmers -who are in need of seed, feed "and the nec essaries of life. Such petitions are unnecessary, as the men who are to form Nebraska legislature this winter are acquainted with the needs of the drouth stricken farmers and will act accordingly. The latest drawback to Gov-elect Boyd taking his seat is that he has never been naturalized. A recent dispatch trom Zanesviue, u., says: "A curious complicatiou has arisen in the case of Governor-elect Boyd of Nebraska. He was born in Ire land in 1834 and came to this city 11 I il T 1 TJ J - mtn ins rattier, .loseun uovu. iu 2 849. His father fled notice of his intention to become a citizen, but iliil-mnt takeout final naiiera until November, 1890. The Ron did ' not take out papers; here, and it is stated that he has never been naturalised in Nebraska. The statues provide that where a father is naturalized his sons under twenty-ooe years of age are- naturalized In this case the father filed his declaration in 1849, but did not take out final papers until 1800." that Wt, AND ST YOU GUNS. A great party can survive a defeat. Bnt to crawfish and back Sown from pronounced convictions and deliberate declarations is to court 'defeat ind disruption. If anvthin? was established by the election two Team ago it the people of this country jibMnced -fdr nrotectiod. - apostle of free trade, Grov-r Cleve land: with the Demoaraticjiarty of ihe United States and "all England" aat his backinsisted that the issue as distinctly free trade as agaiust protection. The Republican party accepted the issue and a great battle was fought squarely on that issue. The result was a decided victory for protection. A Republican house was elected pledged to pass a tariff bill. The McKinley bill was the result. The assumption that the people passed judgment upon that bill in the late election is entirely wrong. Only in McKinley 's district in Ohio, was there a square fight on the tariff issue, and the whole country knows in that gerrymand ered district McKinley reduced the Democratic majority from 2.900 at the last election to less than 300. This talk of repealing or remodeling Ihe tariff reform bill passed at the last session of Congress by a few weak-kneed Republicans is worse than useless, it is criminal, as tending to unsettle the business of the country for months to come. These wiser-thau-their-party Re publicans, of whom Senator Pad dock appears to be one, had best get into the saddle again and stand by the party that made it possible for them to reach their present position.

A very destructive prairie fire passed through our section of the country doing much damage. It seeufs that the most ill-fated ones for fires have been W. C. Ritner's folks, the fire came out of the hills directly north of their house and burnt in an east and Southern course, burning up about 100 worth of haj' for him and a small amouut for other parties, but Mr. Ritner was the most serious loser. M. C. Lindsay lost a small barn. It would be a good thing if people of the north side would take more pains to have hre guards; jf they would all work together it would be easy for all. A brother of W. C. and J. R Ritner arrived from the east recent ly. The Gleaner wishes him pleasant visit. Miss Florence McNeil is at home complaining of a slight illness. We hope she will soon be able to resume her duties as teacher. Gibbon Birtland had the mis fortune to loose a valuable horse. Case brothers are still handling baled hay; the' are energetic 3'oung men. R. M. Hopkins has removed his cattle from W.

A good work of the kind is needed. Gleaner. BIRDWOOD PKECIXCT. As nearly all my neighbors have gone to North Platte to attend the law suit, I am somewhat lonesome and I will once more give you the the news. The law suit I spoke of is a very important one, as it is two champions who have locked horns Hingland against America. The Alliance meets to-morrow night at the lower school house. We are preparing to send a good Alliance man to the White House iu ninety-two. The Bird wood 'sufferers are get ting anxious about that free coal.

Will Somers was up on the Bird wood a few days ago andjhe told me confidentially, that he had traveled over Hengland, Hireland and arf way across Hamerica and studied the habits and customs of different nations, but the Bird wood sufferers have tne strangest customs of any tribe he ever saw.He says that every sufferer goes around with a law book under one arm and a shot gun under the other. George Sherman had a curious adventure the other day. He was down to the creek skating on the t ill ice and tell down anu Diimpea a hole through the ice and killed a pike sixteen inches long. Since then George wears his hair pompa-dore. Mr. Rupp was assisting the school to-day. I think that he has some notion of getting manned again. Who's That. '. Feigin dog be-Feigin him on f t reeling of THE PUEBLO & DDLUTH RAILROAD . From the-Antclope Tribune December Stti.. Mr. Hitchcock has returned from his eastern trip, and is well satisfied with the result of his visit. The company he represents is now in good shape for effective work, and railroad men with whom lie con ferred consider the project one of the very best. Neligh has been looking after her railroad interests of late, and our people appear to be a unit in favor of an earnest endeavor to secure another through line of com munication with the east. A majority of our citizens would, not lift a hand to secure any plug road or an ordinary cross road, but when an enterprise like -the one now under consideration is inaugurated; a line that will give us not only competing lines 6f travel, but com peting markets at the terminal points as well, thus assuring actual rather than nominal and delusive competition, we immediately be come a united band of workers for the enterprise. At the public meet ing held in court house ball last Thursday evening, the 20th, the was unanimous in favor doing all we reasonably can to secure the location of the road through our town. A committee consisting of Krvger, Roben, Roche, Coleman, Hatfield and Maybury was appointed to invite all the towns along the proposed road from Concord in Dixon county to Ord in Valley county to send delegates to a conference to be held in Neligh Dec, lltb, 1890, at which Mr. Hitchcock will be present. In this connection the following letter will be of interest to our readers: North Platte, Neb., ) Nov., 13, 1890. f Editor Antelope Tribune: 1 have only recently learned of Dwight "Hitchcock's connection with the proposed Pueblo & Duluth railroad company, and after a per sonal acquaintance since way back in the CO s I can congratulate the company on having, as one of its incorporators, a man possessed of so much sound judgment and ener getic executive ability as I know Mr. Hitchcock to have. I know him to be a man who does not yield to small obstacles, nor allow dis couraging circumstances to divert him from the pursuit of the object in view. I have also the pleasure of an acquaintance -with another of the incorporators, Mr. James Hunter, aud know him as a successful finan cier in the great financial center of this" conn try, New York. The con nection of these gentlemen with the enterprise should be an assurance of success. Can you send me a copy of your paper containing some history of this proposed railroad in which I take a deep interest? Yours truly, A. D. Buck worth. J. P. Price proprietor of "Repub lican Valley Farm," of Stratton, .Hitchcock county, Nebrask, writes to the officers of the Pueblo & Duluth railroad under date of Oct. 29th as follows: "We are very anxious about the building of the Pueblo Duluth railroad. We want the lumber from the northeast, and" they want our grain and stock and other numerous resources of th s south wesl, to say nothing of the traffic with Mexico and South America, which country abounds in mineral wealth. We of the southwest think the building of the Peublo & Duluth railroad one of the grandest railroad schemes of the United States, as it runs the boundary of no other road, and cannot help beingapaying road when completed." Hastings, Neb., Aug. 30, 1S90. To the Antelope -Tribune: . I have known Dwight Hitchcock Esq., for nearly thirty years. I knew him when we were both young men, each having a few hundred dollars in our respective lines of business, located in a small town in Illinois when we struggled along with more or less success for years trying as best we could to support "those dependent upon us and add to our small stock of mer chandise. I knew Mr. H. and had intimate business relations with him in after years .when he had become identified with prominent railroad projects, and have noticed his course through all these years, and 1 must say that it gives me great pleasure to learn of his connection with the Pueblo & Duluth R. R. Co. I know nothing of the merits the enter prise presents, but have great faith in the ability,, energy and judgment of Mr. II., and if the others asso ciated are possessed with the same ability energy and push, backed up by reasonable capital, the project, in my judgment, cannot fail. I will just add that if the .Tames Hunter whose name I see in tl: list of incorporators is from New York City and a former associate of Mr. Hitchcock it is a very fortunate alliance, as I have known Mr. Hunter for twenty years and more and could not speak too highly of his ability as a financier. Respectfully 'ours, A. L. Clarke. For the benefit of our readers we would say that Mr. Clarke is presi dent of the First National Bank of Hastings, Nebraska, and ""mayor of that city.

The New York and Ohio apple crop is a failure and the eastern market will this year depend on Missouri and Kansas. For the first time in the hitory-tf the cpuutry, buyers have been driven west of the Mississippi river to supply the east with apples. The largest and most profitable orchard in the west, if not in the entire country, is owned by Wellhouse and Wheat, near Leavenworth. The apples in this orchard sold at 3 per barrel. As the orchard yielded 12,000 barrels, the profit on the 450 acres of or chard land amounted to more than 30,000. Nearly all colds are slight, at first, but their tendency is to so lower the s'stem that the sufferer becomes a ready victim to any prevalent dis ease.

After all this treatment he was finally cured, sound and well, by Swift's Specific. Another customer, Mr. B., had suffered for many years with Blood Poison, and thought he had been cured by mercurial treatment, but the disease returned, accompanied by Rheumatism of a bad type.

The laws of health are taught in the schools; but not in a wny to be of much practical benefit and are never illustrated by living examples which in many cases might easily be done. If some scholar, who had just contracted a cold, was brought before the school, so that all could hear the drjr, loud cough and know its significance; see the thin white coating on the tongue and later, as the cold developed, see the profuse watery expectoration and thin watery discharge from the nose, not one of them would ever forget what the first symptoms of a cold were. The scholar should then be given Chamberlain's Cough Remedv freely, that all might see that even a severe cold could be cured in one or two days, or at least greatly mit igated, when properly treated as soon as the first symptoms appear. This remedy is famous for its cures of coughs, colds and croup. It is inade especially for these diseases and is the most prompt and most reliable medicine known for the purpose. 50 cent bottles for sale by A. F. Streitz, Druggist. ESTRAY NOTICE.
