II, Davis. , Sinch the awful catastrophe at Martinique, considerable is being said by some of the papers about a little hillock in Cedar county called lona which according to report is threatening to erupt and destroy the people with a de structive shower of fire, smoke, and melted lava; but the state ' that has successfully emerged from the populistic wave which inundated the country a few years ago, has little to fear from a volcano of much greater de structive power than the little belcher of Cedar county. In making the statement that A. E. Cady of St. Paul would make a winning race for govern or and after his election would make a model chief officer, itmay be charged that we arc trying to sidetrack his chances for election to congress in the Big Sixth, but any such intention is positively disavowed. The only object in view isto.harmonize the various interests so that the republican partv can presentan impregnable front to the enemy, and adminis ter a drubbing io- the fusion forces equal to the defeat which they experienced a year ago when Judge Sedgwick was trl 'umphantly elected. Thk editor of 'The Com moner," who in the hist national campaign positively asserted that the republican administration had'not the remotest intention of keeping its pledge wi.th alio Cu bans to give them an independ ent government is tiow visiting uuua to fratner material tor an article on the turning over of Cuba to the Cubans, and to sl'idy conditions generally in the Isl and. This would seem to be the irony of fate that the twice defcatetl candidate for president would undertake to furnish an article on what he and his follow ers confidently declared would never matialize, but the doughty uoiouei is equal to tnc occasion. ,r Much has hcensaid in the past feirardinir the nonulistic ten dencies of the western portion of xseurasua, but comparing the vote with that of the eastern part, and then takinir into con sidcration the nohulatlnn. tht , fact becomes apparent that the western counties nave, as a geiv ei'al nrommition. uddercd i'Iosim to the time honored principles of republican party than have those of the cast. If tins is true, tltfiso in the west have a claim on the ' state which should not be ig nored which is that the western nart should be uiven what thov r ' - - j have seldom had, a candidate for one of the more important state offices. It is scareelv fair, antl v far from judicious, to hold all i the offices in the cast, simply be cause a p.repqnderance of votes , in the convention enables this to .he done, '"Divide up,. gentlemen, 'djvictc 'up VvwiV'''VviiV',,vW Big Suit Sale at the Fair Friday and Saturday, May 16th and 17th The Fair lias made arrangements with Mr. L. C. Gregg to have on sale at The Fair on the above named days an immense line of Ladies' Suits aad Skirls. The prices made on.cvcry garment will be such as to make it a bargain to the buyer. Owing to an unfortunate duplication of orders, Mr. Gregg has twice as large a stock as he should have, hence this sale in North Platte. The prices on these Suits will range from $f.00 to $25.00, and on Skirts from $2.00 to $10.00. These arc all this season's garments, and arc up-to-date . in every particular. They can not be duplicated for double the price else where. lCvery lady in North Platte and vicinity should call for she will find it to her advantage in getting ideas, even should she not wish to buy. Remember the dates Friday and Saturday, May 10th and 17th. 9 An ex-soldier from the Philip pines named Boardman, was a witness the other day before the the senate committee in regard to matters and things on the islands. His testimony was fav orable to the army, and he was satisfied with everything except UnclcSam's "grub," particularly some can salmon and a prepared food used in soups. Later Senator Dietrich of Nebraska, a member of the committee, accompanied by Senator Bcvcridgc, invited Mr. Boardman to luncheon at the Senate restaurant where he was served with a palate-tickling re past, some of that same salmon in a salad and the food prepara tion in soup being conspicuous on the bill and heartily relished by Boardman. The senators did not tell him that he had been feeding on some of the same stuff that he had condemned in the committee room, but he has probably by this time heard of the practical joke played on him by the senator from Ncbraska.
