P. II. Banky was nominated
Wednesday as the fusion candi
date for congress in this district
at the conventions held at Kear
ney. He is not considered a
strong candidate, and his nomi
nation practically insures the
election of Judge Kinkade. We
nnfWHtnnd A. F. Parsons of
this city was offered the nomina
tion but declined.
Atx that can be done under 11: c
new irrigation law this season is
to procure the preliminary sur
veys which will determine the
location of the experimental re
servoirs. With this work com
pleted actual construction should
begin by the opening of next
spring, so that when the Fifty
eighth congress meets it will
have s'vcral object lessons to
draw from in case further legis
lation is needed. lice.
Tim postofficc department has
just footed up its receipts and
expenditures for the first quarter
of the year l'J02, which ended
with March. The receipts for
the quarter were $32,400,000 and
the expenditures $31,500,000, A
surplus of 800,000 in any
quarter of the postal service is a
thing unheard of. Moreover the
expenditure was larger than
than usual because of the estab
lishing of so many free delivery
routes. It is estimated in Wash
ington that the deficit for the full
fiscal year will be considerably
less than $3,000,000. This is a
decided change from a deficit
ranging from $7,000,000 to 12,
000,000 a year with much less
diffusive service.
THE POPULIST DILEMMA.
The populist congressional
convention of the Sixth district
plunged headlong into the direst
dilemma that has confronted the
party since its inception. First,
it did not propose to countenance
a democrat for the fusion no mi
nation; second, it was deter
mined to force the nomination of
Judge Sullivan, apparently for
the reason that he had so siren
uously opposed the nomination of
a democrat for the head of the
state ticket. In the first instance
there was no opposition, the dem
ocrats for policy's sake surrend
cring cvcrythingandevcnsuffcrr
ing some humiliation. In the
second place the dominant dc
sire was balked because Sullivan
would not accept the nomination
under any circumstances, nor
coupled with any amount o
pleading.
Sullivan disposed of there was
no one of prominence left except
General Barry. Neville had dc
clineu to stand tor a rcnomina
tion. Wcstovcr, admitted to be
the strongest populist in the dis
trict and a candidate up to a few
weeks ago, concluded suddenly
lie would not be a candidate. I Jar
rington of O'Nciil, formerly a pos
nihility, had become an impossi
bility because of his subserviency
to the democratic interests at
Grand Island . So there was no
one left except Barry who was
known throughout the district
and that kindly and 'trusting oh'
gentleman took the nomination
as eagerly and tnanKtully as
though it had been tendered to
Iiim at the outset and served on
a silver platter.
Outside of the small number
who voted for Carry during jlbp
early balloting there was a gen
eral feeling among the populists
that his nomination would be the
most unwise that could be made,
and it was undoubtedly with
many misgivings that the dele
gates finally as a last resort
handed up a nomination by ac
clamation. It was a peculiar
situation, but it was an indication
of the disintegration that is going
on in the populist party, for if
there had been any strong hope
or belief that the nominee would
be elected there would have been
half a dozen struggling candi
dates, and even Judge Sullivan
would have been willing to sacri
fice those "personal interests"
that stand in the way at this
time. Kcarnev Hub.
IICW IRRIGATION WILL HELP,
Irrigation will aid the country
in one particular which is not
commonly kept in mind. At the
present momciu mere it a strung
rift of American farmers across
ic line into Canada. James J.
Iill of the Great Northern rail
way estimates mat io.;,uuu
settlers were carried by the
northern railway lines between
anuary 1, 12, and the beginn-
ng of June. As he figures, 67,-
000 of these have located west of
North Dakota's western boundry
in Montana, Idaho, Washing
ton and Oregon and 25,000 have
one to Manitoba.
The drift across the inter
national boundary has been
ndcr way for a year or two, ac
cording to the indications, but it
is in far larger volume now than
at any previous time. 1 he loss
f these 25,000 settlers in the
first live months of 1902 is some
thing to attract a little attention
rom the country. These per
sons evidently suppose that they
will have advantages across the
nc which they cannot get on
our side. Of course, one of the
reasons why the country has not
been able to hold them is that
the quantity of cheap and fertile
ands is getting smaller with
great rapidity.
Theoretically, there arc many
Kindreds of millions of acres of
government land still to be had
in the United States, but most of
this is in the arid region, and it
cannot be utilized in anv im
portant degree for agricultural
purposes except by irrigation.
Private enterprise 'has done
much irrigating in the past
twenty years, but it cannot do
much more in that direction at
the present time. The states
would be willing to do this per
laps, if the government would
irivc them the lands, but even
tuc states coum not no it as
easily and satisfactorily as couh
the national government. There
arc in inc aria section ot tuc
country, which extends from the
100th meridian onward to the
Cascade mountains, somewhere
about 60,000,000 acres which can
be rendered highly productive
by irrigation, The act which
will start in operation this recla
mation of the arid lauds will at
once go into effect. As a meant;
of holding Americans in Amcric:i
it is essential that this law b
put into effect as fast and as far
as practicable. Let us make on
Wild lands so attractive that no
American farmers will cross th
line to locate.- St. Louis Globe

These atmospheric poisons are breathed into the lungs and taken tip
by the blood, and the foundation of some long, debilitating illness is laid.
Chills and fever, chronic dyspepsia, torpid and enlarged liver, kidney
troubles, jaundice and biliousness are frequently due to that invisible foe,
Malaria. Noxious gases and unhealthy matter collect in the system because
the liver and kidneys fail to act, and nre poured into the blood current until
it becomes so polluted and sluggish that the poisons literally breakthrough
the skin, and carbuncles, boils, abscesses, ulcers and various eruptions of an
indolent character appear, depleting the system, and threatening life itself.
The germs and poisons that so oppress and weaken the body and destroy
the life-giving properties of the blood, rendering it thin and watery, must
be overcome nnd carried out of the system before the patient can hope to
