Let all other precincts fall in line. VAX Wvck now gets in his inning on Burrows and among other things says he is "the meanest man that God ever put on earth and let live." The people of the state breathlessly await Burrow's next declaration relative to Van Wyck. as Last jear the vote in Kansas was follows: Republicans, 131,032; people's party, 113,720; democratic, 29,348; the combined opposition to the republicans being in the majority by only 12,030. These figures are making the fusionists ' very tired. AconsT 10th is the date for holding the republican congressional convention for this district and Chadron the place. Among the strong candidates whose names will be presented to the convention are Darrington, "Whitehead and Kincaid, either of whom would make a vigorous fight Ln speaking of the bargains and sale of the democratic part', Colonel Tomlinson, late editor of the Topeka Democrat, said : "Well,the iniquity has been consummated ; what I feared and predicted months ago has come to pass; the last shameful chap ter in the history of Kansas democracy has been written; the humiliation and degradation of tho democratic party of Kansas is at last complete." An extensively advertised independent ratification meeting at Sidney a week ago resulted in the assembling of twenty-five or thirty members of that party; the re maisder of the audience being democrats and republicans whoJvere attracted to the meeting through curiosity. Van Wyck was advertised to speak but die failed to put in an appearance and his place was supplied by L. C. Stockton, formerly or this city. Republicans withiu the alliance will note tho fact that the independent party In Kansas has been made a cat's paw for the democrats by the latter endorsing the electors nominated by the former. Of coarse the independents cannot carry a sufficient number of stales to elect their Boniaee, but if the democrats can assist them in carrying republican states it throws the election into the house and elects Cleveland. The song the democrats are staging is "anything to down the re publicans." c There are so many good men in the republican party who would creditably 11 the eovernors chair that the conven tion will havejsome difficulty in making a-selection. Among tnoso wiiose names can be considered in this relation are Frank Ransom, Judge Hopewell, Lorenzo CroB&se, Isaac Noyes, George W. Lin jager, all of Omaha; Jack McColJ, Lex ington; A. E. Cad, St. Paul; Tom Majors, Peru; II. H. Shedd, Ashland; Brad Slaagbter, Fullerton; Ben Baker, Fair bury. In the State Journal's "Points in Poli tics" we find the folio wing: "Among the gentlemen talked of by the Lincoln coun ty republicans for legislative honors is Martin Van Brocklin of Elizabeth. Jlr. Ya Brocklin is a farmer, a civil engineer and is highly educated. He held a re sponsible position on the New York elevated railroad during its construction and spent several years in Australia in the practice of engineering. He is greatly interested in the subject of irrigation for western Nebraska and discusses the sub ject from the standpoint of practical .knowledge derived from thorough inves tigation and extended observation. Should fee b9 selected to represent the people of kis -district he would serve them ably and faithfully," The sage of the York Times says: "It makes the independent politicians 'wild with delight when a farmer puts a mort gage on his land. They, make a hundred mortgages. out of one, and -say the fwhole township has been plastered. The fact is there are more farmers who are com- fortably well off than any other class of people, and Ave are glad of it. The time never was when everybody was. indepen dently rich, and never will be,'it there never was a time when men of all in dustrial pursuits had so much property and such good returns for their labor," is Tnc republican county convention called to meet Jlondaj, August 1st, and it is recommended that the primaries be held the Saturdayf .previous. The busi ness to come before the convention mainly the selection of delegates to the state, congressional, senatorial and repre sentative conventions, but it is important that each precinct in the county be'repre sented and assist iu selecting delegates who will vote in tho several conventions for men who will best represent tho terests of the1, people. The Tribune is not inclined to take a pessimistic view of the situation in Nebraska, but it realizes, as do all republicans, that unless the party nominate thoroughly competent and poli- tically clean candidates it will at least be an uphill fight. The republican farmers should therefore attend the primaries and send men to the county convention to help elect delegates to the state and dis tricts conventions who will vote for such candidates as, in their opinion, will best represent tho interests of not only the farmer but laborer, mechanic and mer chant as well. The date of the primaries and convention may prove a busy time for the farmer, but every good republican should bo willing to devote a day or two to the interests of the party. Therefore let there bo a full attendance at the pri maries as well as at the convention. The Omaha World-Herald attempts to lighten the democratic-independent-peo pie's gloom by rehashing tho election returns of 1890. But this isn't 1830. It isn't even 1891, when the republicans threshed the combination on the judicia ticket Handsomely, and upset in severa congressional districts the calamity ma jorities against them of the year before, This is another year, and the bottom has diopped out of calamity in Nebraska Journal.

Joe Courtney moved into his new house last Saturday. Miss Lizzie Taneer was called to her home near Chappell this week. Mrs. Samelson has been making some improvements around her property. Mrs. Powers returned to her home in Laramie last Saturday evening. L. P. Derby has moved into our midst and is living on west Ninth street. Coal is expected to be stored here to tho amount of. 6,000 tons before the end of the month. W. R Vernon has been unable to at tend to his duties as yardmasteron ac count of sicknesa Harry Baskins returned from the east a few days ago and will visit at home for a short time. Thos. Crick, tho crossing watchman. has been making a number of changes around his place. Charley Ranck assisted E. R. Easton in making hay last week and he returned with his complexion changed. Henry Fogel was in Maxwell tho first of the week to work in his line of busi ness that the farmers of that vicinity might be accomodated. Al Johnson, the night switch foreman, has again become a resident of this ward after a long absence. He is occupying M. C. Harrington's house. I learned accidentally that our ex-city clerk W. J. Roche has been reading Blackstone and may be a full fledged l&wyer some day. We have no legal lights over here and we invite him to hang out his shingle on our side. Ralph A. Chamberlain has gone to Sterling, Colo., to remain thero perma nently as hostler. John C. Scharmann, who has been there in the same capacity, will move his household effects to North Platte this week and work hore as hostler. Umbrellas are hardly ever used by men unless it rains, b"ut Monday and Tuesday of this-week were so intensely hot that umbrellas were used freely to keep off the rays of the sun, although rain would have been more welcome than tho sun. Fred Tobas was incapacitated from work for ten days. While picnicing he ran into some poison ivy and his face and neck were so much swollen that his features were unrecognizable. He pre sented a laughable appearance notwith standing ho was in constant misery. Mrs. Grimes, wife of John Grimes, of the "rep. track" gang, went to Crab Orchard, Neb., Tuesday morning to visit with relatives and friends and she will doubtless return, with some of the crab apples that must abound there. She left "Johnnie" in tho care of O. SV Humber stono. "What would you do if you were I and I were you?" tenderly inquired a swell of a young lauy wnom no insisted upon escorting homo from church. "Woll," sne replied, "it were you 1 should ll il A inrow away mat viie cigarette, cut up my cane ior firewood, wear my watch underneath jny coat, and stay at home nights to pray for brains." The walk was finished in silence and it is presumed mat ior once in ms mo tno voung man thought hard. Hackensack Republican Our school house has boen the onlv ono in the city that could not be reached by a sidewalk. I say "has been" because there will have been a walk laid on tho north sido of Ninth street before schoo! opens this fall. There have been com plaints from other parts of the citv be cause the children have had no outlet to get to school on sidewalks, but what do you unnK or us, witn an tnese years witnout a walK near tho school and stil thore are children enough in the ward to require three rooms. We were foolish but we reformed. "He that is never fool, is always a fool." THE WILDmTXDSOR CASTLE. At four o'clock yestordav afternoon .uuuaio nm, witn nis uossacKs and troupe, arrived at Windsor and gave performance before the Queen and othe members of the royal family, on the spacious lawn fronting the enkt terrace of Windsor Castle. After the perfor manco the troupe left for London' by . a. nr special train. ., xne programme gone tnrougn was oi tne most attractive des cription, leading off with a race between the representatives of each "of the dif ferent nationalities tho American cow boys, tho Red Indians, the Mexicans, the Cossacks and the uauchos all of whom exerted their powers to tho utmost, Then followed a series of scenes of Inr dian camp life, which tho red meri went through with much spirit; after which the Gauchos, whose picturesque costumo and intrepid feats greatly interested the roval party, cave their performance their hurling of the "bolas," consisting of a number of raw hide 'thongs, which they use as a sort of lasso, being a much appreciated display. Next came tho race for life, showing Colonel Cody and a band of cowboys being pursued by hostile In dians, whom they ultimately defeated, The Cossacks, under Prince Ivan Mak- haradze, also gave their splendid enter tainment of horsemanshjp and dancing; the everlastingly amusing buckjumpers and cowboys went through their divert ing performances; Colonel Cody displayed his wonderful doxteritv as a marksman by shooting glass balls, both tho Colonel and tho object thrower galloping at full speed; and tno entertainment was brought to a close by a general salute bv all sections of horsemen, which was acknowledged by the Queen. The great est success attended even detail of tho representation, and the Queen personally congratulated Colonel Cody. London Telegraph. BASE BALL AT HERSHEY. The game of ball played at Hershoy by the itid nine or tins city and tho regular saianeci nine oi uersnev, was witnessed by a large crowd of lovers of the national game on Sunday last. On tho start the game promised to be very hot, but it was soon evident that the kids were "quered" in their fino playing by the rather outragous decisions ofjjtho umpire, and it soon became evident that they had no more show than a rabbitt as far as the scoro was concerned. How ever the boys finished up in good humor, considering they were whito-washed three times and the Hershey nine three times." 'The kids say, hpwpver, that "his lumberyards" who 'umpired tho game, doesn't know enough to stand behind the bat for a nine of blind females. The score was 15 to 9 in favor of Her shoy. Before their departure the kids gave them a kind and hearty invitation to come and play with them on the ir grounds, but they appeared to be afraid of them. Consequently they would not accept tho invitation. The challenge is still open for froni ten to fifty dollars which can be accepted at any um choose. J, MAXWELL PICKINGS. P. F.
