Kesi having failed to explain his vote oa the river and harbor bill to the satis faction of the more intelligent members of his party, he cannot fault them if they vote for? the nominee of the Chadron convention. Geo. D. aiEiKiEJOiiN, a very capable nnd nonular man and ardent worker in a the partv, has been nominated frrPRs liv the renublicans of e j . district. It is almost a dead sure that he will be elected. for con- the Third thing This week witnesses the turning out of the first cotton cloth from the looms of the Kearney mills. The patience of the Kearney people was severely tried by the slowness with which the mill was com pleted, but now that it is producing cloth they have reason to rejoice. On the authority of Bourke Cochran, the great Tammanyite, there are, 28,000 old soldiers residing in New York who will not touch' Cleveland. It may be added that there are thousands of veterans in e?ery state who will remember Cleve land for the pensions he vetoed. C. D. Shrader, of Logan, has been nominated by the independents as one of the representatives from the district com posed of Logan and Custer counties. Shrader is a wild-mouthed orator and his speeches please those independents who do not stop to consider the unreliabity of his statements. Qx Saturday next the republican pri maries will be held in the several pre cincts and on Monday -next the county convention will be held. These meetings come right in the midst of harvest, and is consequently a busy time for the farmers, mt ver trust delegates will be sent from each precinct in the county.

The indcpendents are to help elect demo cratic congressmen in tho First, Second and Third districts and in return receive the democratic vote for their candidate in the balance of the districts. Frank Ireland is to be nominated for governor and Uill Thompson lieutenant-governor by the democrats. Van "Wyck is to head the independent state ticket, and Powers given recond place. Just before election Ireland is to be induced to withdraw in Van "Wyck's interest, and Powers is to be slaughtered by Van's friends and Thomp. son elected lieutenant-governor. Then in order that the democrats may secure the governorship the democrats are to help elect Van Wyck to the senate in which case Thompson as lieutenant-governor would step, into the vacancy. Whether the rank and file of either party can be depended upon to ratify tho schemes of the leaders remains to be seen. A Parmer on the Homestead Trouble. Editor Tribune. A good deal of quiet electioneering is being done against the republicans throughout this part of the county by local politicians of the podge-hodge sort. Every game is now being played known to tho independent fraternity, even if the odds are greatlj' against them. At this writing local independent politicians are trying to injure tho republican party and thereby gain votes by saying that the re publican partj' is responsible for the Homestead strike and blood shed so re cently occurring in Pcnnsjivania. In the light of the facts as brought out by the congressional investigating com mittee, no one but a demagogue will con tinue to argue that the republican party, any more than any other party, is respon sible for this or any other disgraceful riot. There seems to be a great many peo ple in this country that will not work un less they get their price and if tho trouble would end there less harm would come of strikes. But the trouble does not gener ally end there. Many of these same men will not work -or let the good men take their places. This seems to be about the size of the Homestead strike. The Carnegie Company at Homestead employed about 4,000 men whose wages ranged from $16 to 1.40 per da'. The company had put in improved machinery so that workers could make considerably more per day than before the improved machinery was used. Then the compa ny asked that the wages be reduced as its earnings would not justify such high wages. It seems to mo that if a farmer was employing a farm hand for twenty dol lars per month and from csuses known to himself he should conclude that his farming would not justify him in paying that much per month, he certainly would be justified and only doing business right by offering a less prico per month. Fur ther, if ho thought his property in dan ger, ho certainly would be justified in getting his neighbor to come over and help look after his property. If our political independent politicians can make anything out of the Carnegie company's doings they certainly can out of the way the above farmer does. Charity begius at home. The Home stead riot cost tho state of Pennsylvania 22,000 per dnj' and if the independents insists in scattering seeds of discord and discontent among the farmers in the future as they have in the past by their well known hostility to the capitalists it will cost us individually more than man' of us are aware of. Drive capital from the country and it will be a long road when to sit down in luxury and ease will fall to tho lot of the Farmer. f-fi .1 K fM To avoid any iuharmonious action wfcfrJi micht otherwise arise. The Tri bune would suggest that the republican precinct committeemen, and especially those of this city, issue callB for caucuses tn be held nrior to tho primaries which are set for Saturday next. In times past no -little amount of political soreness has resulted from contests at the primaries, nnd if caucuses are held they will do much toward preventing any ill feeling at the primaries. Tue lact that the democrats are figur iag to elect Cleveland without New York k evidence that they have no hope of parrying that state. In view of the dis gruntled feeling which exists among the Hoosier democrats, on account of the manner in which Gray was ignored at the Chicago convention, it does not look at though the republicans will experience asy great trouble in carrying Indiana. The republican state convention meets atUacoln on Thursday of next week, aad If the platform adopted and the candidates-Dominated are of the right ring sad stripe, as they undoubtedly will be, Nebraska can be carried by the republi cans, eve if the democrats and indepen dekH4o fuse. 3Iuch, however, depends m the actions of the convention and we believe all ardent and honest rcpubli eaaa recognize the fact.

For the alleviation of tho many suffer ers of Puerperal fever in Wallace, we wish to mention for their benefit that tho patients in the country are all well with the exception of Samuel Kidwell s linger, which is rapidly improving. Through the powers of practice a specific has been discovered which limits the duration oftho disease to about eight or nine days. In a little deal last Monday morning P. L. Harper loft tho game $1,000 shy. It was another girl baby. S. C. Chaso left Wallace on the 18th of July for the west Landing in Salt Lake City ho took -a little horseback rido of about 300 miles in which he rounded up fifty-three head of Clyde and Norman horses which he landed in Wallaco on Saturday last. They are principally brood mares and two-year-old geldings. He also brought an imported jack. Mr. C. reports everything dull in the west. The chief political grindstone of tho Star, Charley Souel, becoming weary of tho roar and rumble of city life and the solitary toil of the political editor, arose, took up his bed and board and hied into Alaska three miles northeast of town, where ho has secured a homestead. He visited the city last Saturday and 6pent the day in canvassing his many friends with a view to engaging butter, eggs, eass etc. He informed us that he had put out laBt week six rows of cowcumbers, two patches of watermillions, some lettis and .piplant. He will begin to break prairie next week. While in the city he purchased four dozen broom-handles which ho will set out on his tree claim. Ho also contracted for Burnett's pet badger to be paid for when his brooms wero ripe. Ho has also at this time planted about two acres of popcorn balls and half of the garden spot in doughnuts, which ho thinks are being injured by dry weather as they have not yet sprouted. Sunday morning, under the auspices of Rev. Miller, of Edison, at the residence of Henderson Hollingsworth, Tyler Hol lingsworth -and Miss Rosa -Hennessey wero joined in holy matrimony. After many days intoxication from the sipping of Hennessey, Tyler finally concluded to take the whole bottle.

General Weaver remarked in a speech at his old home at Bloomdale, Iowa, that on the 1st day of May it would be fifty years since his father settled in Davis county on what is now known as Dodd's farm and if he lived until that time he would lock up the white house and come back and hold a picnic on Wm. Dodd's farm.

Don't worry, son, for time is fleet, And many a May will be spent And many a man will take that seat Before be s president O, tell me matnmaj tell mo quick, I'm sure 'twill be no harm.

THAT BALL GA3IE AT HEKSHEY. In tho last issuo of The Tribune mv eyo came in contact with an article headed "Base ball at Horshey," in which tho writer appeared to be greatlv ex cited or disappointed. I wish to state that tho North Platto "Kids" (as they called themselvas) had the choice of umpire; we were also willing to play tinder the double system. Tjie kids came up with tho avowed intention of doing up tho pumpkin rollers but went home sadder rtnd wiser babes. We also noticed that in regard to ago tho two pines wero about evenly matched, but when it came to juvenile actions such as kicking and screaming over disappoint ments tho North Platte youngsters were decidedly in the lead, In ono iunjng the Hershey nine nut out four kids before they would tako tho -field, also allowed ono minor from tho city to Btriko four times because he declared that was the proper caper. The kids did not get around to third baso for several innings in succession but of course that was all due iff the lumber-yard umpire. You are nice kittle lambs but you can't play ball with tho puuifcj'n rollers and -the lumber-yard umpire. Sad ihaeod. Rain ix the Face. Commissioners' Proceedings. Julr 13th, 1S92.
