North Platte, Neb., July 20, 3892.
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.
Oxe of the latest events' connected
with the Homestead labor trouble was the

are made- The independent leaders are
to tr and deliver enough independent
votes to the two so selected to elect tbem.
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.

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

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.

"Wallace "Warblings.
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.

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.
Mother when is this natal day,
This picnic we f;hall see,
Will it be on' the 1st of May
In eighteen ninoty-threeV
Oh no, my son, not quite so soon,
Such growth they'll ne'er endure,
Tis later on by many a moon
Twill not be premature
But mamma, did'nt Weaver say
Ho'd be tho president,
And lock the white house on that
day? . ,
I don't see what he meant!
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.
How long 'twill be till this picnic
On old Bill Dodsey's farm?
Twas fictious song you heard him

You'll find him at his home,
In ninety three or any time
From now till kingdom come.

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.
