A plurality of two hundred 011
the entire republican ticket next
Tuesday will answer just as well as
four hundred.
No one has come to the rescue of
three-per-cenfc Jake Miller and
denied that lie charged the farmers
usurious interest.
A certaix independent candidate
while in town Saturday night took
on a pretty big "jag" and gave
away several of his "so-called" snaps.
He was eventually taken in charge
by friends.
Up to the hour of going to press
Butler Buchanan had not turned
over to the county those $800 in
fees which he received from the
bankers, money lenders and real
estate agents.
The Wallace Herald refers to the
"sledge-hammer blows of truth
which the pops are dealing' In
setting up the item the compositor
made quite an error. It should
have read, "the infamous lies which
the pops are circulating."
This week's issue of the Era will
undoubtedly be one marked for its
unwarranted abuse of the republi
can candidates. The editor has
been saving his load of filth and
screed for his last issue in the cam
paign. Coroner Warner's last official
act will be to hold an inquest over
the remains of the independent
party of Lincoln county on Nov.
8th. That political body is already
badly decayed, but the Coroner will
encase the corpse in a metallic
casket and bury it deep, thus pre
venting any unpleasant odor.
Does Mr. Buchanan, who is sup
posed to be a consistent church
member, approve of the indepen
dents holding political meetings on
the Lord's day? We are taught
that the independent brethren are
reformers of morals as well as of
politics, yet they do not seem to
have any regard for Sunday.
Newell Burritt was in town
Saturday and was feeling awful
blue over his chances for election on
the independent ticket. In fact he
stated that were it not for the
assurances he had from the central
committee not the voters he
would withdraw from the race.
Burritt is not the only candidate on
the independent ticket that feels
blue; they all read the hand-writing
on the political horizon.
When out campaigning Jake
Miller doesn't take with him anv
of his maimed cattle, but those who
visit his farm can see them. He is
known to have pumped as high as
seven loads of shot into the body of
one animal because it happened to
get into his cornfield. It is fair to
presume that he would accord the
same treatment to prisoners in case
the voters use such poor judgment
as to boost him into the office of
sheriff.
The republican ticket is one
which deserves not onlv the support
of all members of the partv but of
all those who believe that the coun
ty offices should be filled by com
petent men. The opposition has
attempted to prove that the repub
lican candidates are incomnetent.
but they have absolutely no founda
tion on which to base their charges.
The voters will prove by their bal
lots next Tuesday their confidence
in Miss Hosford. Stoddard. Clark.
Baker and liav.
The Tribune's clinching denials
of the Wallace Herald's falsehoods
knocked the wind out of Beeler and
last week's issue of his so-called
newspaper was confined to fulsome
flattery of Miss Forsythe and an
apology for misquoting P. F. Het
tinger. We are informed that
Buchanan and several others told
Beeler that if he did not quit his
infamous lying he would wreck the
ticket. The ticket, however, is
already wrecked and not a candi
date on it will be elected.
Sheriff Baker has been in office
six years and the independent papers
and stump orators have failed to
make and sustainasingle charge
against his honeHfeL. efficiency.
Baker's record iwnparalled;
m the state, aoVViRffas to in
sure his re-election at the hands of
the voters of Lincoln county.
The independents are putting
rorth all their energies in a vain
attempt to pull Buchanan through
the other fellows on the ticket
have been dropped. It is no longer
a secret that they have cast Miller
and Burritt adrift, and this too at
Buchanan's request. After election
Miller and Burritt will fully realize
the truth of this statement and con
clude that they were duped.
The Era's insinuation that treas
urer Clark assisted a speculator in
buying lands which were offered for
sale by reason of non-payment of
taxes is untrue, mean and contempt
ible, and is in keeping with the
falsehoods which that sheet has
been publishing for several weeks.
The Era has been unable to prove
wherein Mr. Clark has ever been
guilty of a dishonest, dishonorable
orungentlemanly act. His efficiency
is above just criticism.
The supreme court of Nebraska
has ruled that a county clerk who
goes out of his office to take notarial
acknowledgements must turn the
fees collected into the county treas
ury, or that it be duly credited as
fees of his office. This being the
case, was ndt the money Mr. Bu
chanan received for keeping bankers
posted on the mortgages and other
instruments filed in the clerk's
office fees of that office and should
not he have accounted for the same
when making settlement with the
county commissioners? Justice and
honesty demands Mr. Buchanan to
turn into the county treasury the
hundreds of dollars he received from
this source. Will he do it?
we understand rim jveuner is
fashing around a letter written by
Sheriff Costello, of Hall county, in
which the latter makes the state
ment that while he was here last
spring for the purpose of arresting
Saml. Adams on a charge preferred
by a Grand Island firm, Sheriff
Baker and Marshal Huntington had
spirited Adams awav. In this
statemen there is absolutely no
truth. Costello came up here for
the purpose of attempting to collect
by criminal prosecution a debt
which Adams owed the Grand
Island firm. He found Adams and
placed him under arrest. Adams
asked the privilege of consulting
his lawyer, which was accorded him,
and while the consultation was in
progress Costello absented himself.
Later in the day he called at Adams'
house, but at that time Adams was
down town. Costello made no
special effort to find him, and re
turned to Grand Island a few hours
thereafter. Adams has been in
town ever since, with the exception
of a week or two which he spen t in
Montana settling up the estate of
a deceased brother, and if Costello
really wanted him, he could have
secured him at any time. The fact
is Costello thought he could make
Adams pay the amount of the bill
by threatening criminal prosecu
tion, but his scheme did not work.
The local officers had nothing what
ever to do with the matter.
With tears streaming down his
cheeks the editor of the Era begs
the independents to stand by the
ticket. But they are not going to
do it; thej' are weary of gag and
gang rule, misrepresentations, and
being led astray by a lot of broken
down political hacks. This is a
year when the independents will
assert their independence and vote
for the republican candidates whom
they kuow to be worthy and effic
ient officers.
The Era should be more specific
and give the names of a few of
those who called at the treasurer's
office to pay their taxes during the
absence of deputy Prosser and found
that Treasurer Clark was unable to
make out the receipts by reason of
his incompetency. The people
want facts, Mr. Ellin eh am, and
require proof of your assertions be
fore they believe them. Out with
the names of those tax-payers who
could not be accommodated by Mr.
Clark.
In regard to the Clark-Glaze
matter, Mr. Glaze, in an article in
the Wellfleet Argus over his own
signature says: "As to the check
of $57.35 drew by me in favor of J.
H. Clark, on Sept. 26th, will say
that I find by the statement of M.
C. Harrington, ass't cashier of the
First National Bank of North
Platte, was duly presented and re
turned to Mr. Clark not paid for
want of funds as the deposit seems
did not reach the bank until the day
after the check which was sent on
same day by same mail. Since I have
taken the trouble to look up the
matter I do not blame Mr. Clark as
I did at the start as it was the only
thing he could do under the cir
cumstances, and as to the expense
of a trip to North Platte to pay ray
taxes is a mistake, as I sent a check
on same bank by a friend and it
was duly paid and he went and paid
my taxes."

A Denial.
Sutherland, Oct. 30th.
Editor Tribune: The Era of
last week seated that I had at
tempted to prevent the holding of a
people's party meeting at Suther
land Saturday evening by refusing
the use of the building. This is
false. The truth is the meeting
was advertised for the school house
at Sutherland, but owing to a rul
ing made by the school board
year ago to the effect that no po
litical meetings of any party could
be held in the building, the
board refused to give the use of the
house for Saturday
ing. I am not a
school board and had nothing to do
with the ruling or the refusal of
the building. .After the school
house had been refused the inde
pendents, they went to my son
Frank and secured my hall in which
to hold the meeting.

The Omaha Bee perpetrated its
accustomed fake when it pretended
to have interviewed Governor
Crounse and ascertained from him
that he was contemplating the call
ing of an extra session of the legis
lature about the 1st of March. The
governor says that, on the contrary,
he said there was nothing that he
had ever heard of that called for an
extra session and he had no idea
that any emergency would arise to
make a session desirable. What

Section 42, chapter 28, of the
compiled statutes limit the salary
of the county clerk to $1,500 and
require that all fees in excess of
$1,500 shall be covered into the
county treasury. The law else
where requires the county clerk to
keep a fee book and enter therein
all fees received by him. In the
case of the State ex: rel. Cuming
county vs. James W. Shearer, 29th
Nebraska, page 477, the supreme
court held that it was the duty of
the county clerk to report all the
fees of his office and pay the excess
over the amount to which he is en
titled into the county treasury. In
the 30th Nebraska, page 575, the
supreme court held that a county
clerk must report all fees received
by him as notary public and for
furnishing abstracts and enter
tl:em upon the fee book. The law
also requires the county clerk to
make an annual settlement with
the county commissioners.
Now keeping these laws and de
cisions m view, let us examine But
ler Buchanan s record for 1891, his
last year as county clerk. Follow
ing is the settlement found in Vol.
4, page 594, of the Commissioners'
Kecords:

We, the commissioners of Lincoln county. Ne
braska, hereby certify that we have examined the
records of the county clerk's offlco and find the
above statement correct to the best of our knowl
edge and belief.
M. Obebst, j
K. D. Murphy, Commrs.
W. S. Hill, )
Examination of the commis
sioners record show that in war
rant No. 232, general fund, Buchan
an received S200 as salary for clerk
of the board from Jan. 1. 1891, and
warrant No. 858, issued Jan 6, 1892,
for $200 for last six months of 1891.
The only inference that can be
taken from the statement is that he
drew the warrants for his salary
and then in his final settlement
failed to account for them, thus
filching $400 out of the county.
Here is 400 that Butler Buchan-
i . .
an does not snow un in his settle
ment; 400 which he has defrauded
the tax-payers of Lincoln county
out of. This is not campaign
thunder. It is the record made by
Buchanan and he can t gainsay it.
This is not all. It is well known
that during the years 1890 and 1S91
Butler Buchanan received not less
than 800 from the banks and
money hnders for furnishing daih
reports of the filing of mortgages
and transfers in the clerk's office.
This 8800 is clearlv part of the
fVes of his office and under the law
t ill 1 a
snouid nave oeen accounted tor in
h s settlement. If this $800 and
the two county warrants Jior $400
had been entered on his (fee .book
ani included in his settlement
tlwre would have been a balance
dae Lincoln county of $1470 in
stead of 270. This settlement is ;
fraud on the county and Butler
Buchanan ought, as he will be,
compelled to disgorge. The su
preme court has held that mandam-
js will lie to compel the clerk to
pay over to the county treasury all
fees in excess of 1500, and it is
the duty of the county commission
ers of Lincoln county to institute
proceedings to recover this monev.
Singularly Free from Blemish.
Columns of eulogy have supple
mented the nomination of Judge
Harrison, the republican candidate
for supreme judge, says the Beat
rice Express. Every republican
newspaper in the state has none but
kindly words for him and the oppo
sition papers accord to him a large
measure of substantial qualifica
tions tor the high position. In
these days of fierce competition for
the official prizes, the man must be
clean indeed "who runs the gaunt
let and wins the laurel." If his
record is confined to private life it
must be untarnished and invulnera
ble and equally so if he has been in
public or official life. It is in fact
largely o matter of record with a
nin who in these days aspires to
fill an office of honor and trust. If
there be a spot or blemish on his
escutcheon the microscopic search
light of the opposition will discover
it and magnify it ten iold, it will
rise up like Bauquo's ghost to tor
ment him and his constituents if it
ultimately does not defeat him in
the race. The record of Judge
Harrison is singularly free from
blemish. He has a private record
and a public record, and in both
commands the unqualified respect
not to say admiration of his fellow
citizens. As a private citizen he
enjoys the highest esteem of his
neighbors and friends, who accord
him the traits and qualities of a
manly man in all the social rela
tions. He meets squarely all the
obligations of citizenship, and in
his walk and conversation reflects
the honorable, high minded man
whose example is worthy of emula
tion, and whose influence is ever di
rected toward the amelioration and
and elevation of his fellow man.
As police, county and district judge,
he has made an enviable record, one
to which his friends and supporters
point with pardonable pride, and
bisjtraining and experience in these i
to enter. His rulings and iWiauL
npon the bench have evir been
characterized by fairness, delibera
tion, fearlessness and justice to all
parties. Gifted with rare perspicuity
and intelligence, with a mind welL
stored with legal lore, his decintM
have, with the fewest exceptktoa,
stood the crucial tests of tht high
est courts. "Some men are. born to
lead, others to follow." Judge Har
rison is a leader among men; ajfljie
high sense of honor, his recoffniiMmfibw.
legal abilities, his courage to follow
his convictions and his self reliant
assertive manhood pre-eminently fit
him to sit in judgment over the
affairs of men.
As a republican Judge Harrison
has maintained an undeviatinK
record, and his popularity is well
attested by his election to a second
term as district judge in the banner
populist district in the state. To
assume that such a man will prosti
tute his high powers and the higb
office of the supreme judgeship, ' to
further the selfish interests of anv
party, any class, and section, or
corporations of any description, is
preposterous in the extreme. A
lifelong established record of
honesty and integrity is too valu
able to be thus despoiled, and Judge
Harrison is not the man to do it.
As he has been a good and worthy
citizen, a good lawyer, a good aiii,
impartial judge,' so he will continuJr
and if elected to a seat in the high
est tribunal in our state, will bring
to it the same high sense of duty
and impartial justice that have
characterized his past career. Vote
forjudge Harrison.
