' REPUBLICAN TICKET, Republicans throughout tho county express themselves ns highly pleased with tho nominations mado Inst Tucs' dny. They look on tho ticket ns par ticularly strong, believe that it will re reivo the united support of tho party voters and that each candidate will bo elected by n-big majority. It is n tick ot of clean, progressive and energetic m(jn, who possss the ability to credi tably (111 tho positions for which they are aspirants. In Candidates Rose, Lotton and Hnmer, nominated for tho supreme judgeship, we have men of recognized legal ability, men who have 8nt on tho bdnch nnd proved thomuolyoH fair and impartial jurists. Judge Ilamer Is a western Nebraska man, well known In Lincoln county, having been ' at ono time judge of this judicial district. Asa resident of tho west part of tho state, his candidacy naturally appeals to tho pcoplo of this section nnu ho will prob ably rocoivo more than his party vote, x That Judrro Grimes should bo renomi nated without opposition can be taken as evidence of his popularity and stand ing as h judge. Fow judgos, if any, in the state have been on the bench for bo many yoara ahd made so fow enomles, and this standing among tho pcoplo lias been attained through his absoluto fairness ns a judge. Tho county ticket is certainly strong. Starting with Albert Durbin as tho nominee for treasurer wo have a young man who has lived in tho county since enrly chlldoood, making Ills homo in tho ; south pnrtnf the county until four years ago whonhe wub seloctod deputy treasurer by Treasurer Langford. That Mr. Langford mndo no mlstako in selecting Mr. Durbin as his deputy has been woll established by Mr. Durbin's uftlclont sorvico. Ho has displayed the ability to well perform tho duties of tho .office, For county clerk Will Yost received the nomination and it could not havo fallen to n inoro worthy or competent person. For several yoara .Mr. Yost has been denutv under Clerk Elliott. ' and has proven n most obliging and effi cient official, Careful and accurate In his work, the affairs of tho office will bo woll conducted. George E. Hrossor, as candidate for clerk of tho districtTcourt has been woll tried and proven not wanting In nny re spect. In fact no man could transact tho duticB of tho office bettor ami few could do so well. Tho absolute correct ness 'ofthe court records, proves his efficiency. SEAnother candiduto who has'beon tried nnd J found Al Is Supt. Ebright. The work of Mr. Ebright during tho pant four years has been ondorsod by the peoplo regardless of political affilia tion. Ho has labored zenlously for tho upbuilding of thochools;of tho county and In this vork he has been very sue cessful. . For county judge tho party selected M. E. Crosby, a young attorney of ability, and ono who has grown up with . thu county, having lived nt Sutherland . nlnco early childhood. Ho graduated ,from tho state university and after re "coiVlng his degree located In North Platto, where ho Iiuh sii'ce established a , reputation with all for fairness and in , togrlty. Lust spring ho wns eloctod i councilman from his ward. A. J, Snlisbury, tho nominee for aheriir, is a man who came to Lincoln as it boy and located with his pnronts In Plant precinct llomnlning'thorojfor ten years ho moved to North Platto and engaged in the livery business, contlnu lag In this until a year or ao ago, and h siuco that time has conducted Jan auto .livery. Mr.Snlisbury has proven himsolf . u good citizen, a man of Integrity nnd honorablo in all his dealings. He has Uiat grit and determination that'll peace ' officer should possess, nnd is well fitted in every particular to well discharge tho duties of tho sheriff's office. For county Burvoyor Paul Moyors Was nominated and Dr. F. H. Longloy for coroner. They havo boun incum bents of the offices for which they havo been nomlnntod and havo provon Jvory efficient officials. They deserve re election. J. W. Abbott is tho candidate for county commissioner, nnd ho is cortaln ly ono of Lincoln county's best men. For many yentu ho has resided at Hor iihoy, first filling tho position of atntlon agent for the Union Pacific, then choa ior of tho Hershoy bank, and now en gaged in thu rent estate business. In the several positions he has filled ho has proven his ability as a business man. Conservative but not parsimon ious, ho will as a commissioner make u most valuable mombor of tho board. Tho ticket is n most satisfactory ono to Tho Tribune and It will tuko pleas ure in giving each candidnto its most hearty support, andean with confidence ' invito the support of nil votora who dosiro competent officials. The Official Car for West and Pawnee Mr. Frank Winch, general Pross Representative of the above exhibition states as follows: Starting from New York City, Aptil 2, I have driven 21,06 miles, up to the time of reaching the Adams County Automobile Co's tfarag'- in Hastings, in a Model "16" Buick car. I have m-vprupened the hood except for lubricating. I have nver had a broken part, I have never had a replacement. Two. weeks ago I passed through thro' the gumbo muds of Iowa and pulled out eight cars of different makes. I drove successfully and without hesitation thro' 93 miles of Iowa gumbo mud up to the hubs and over, so deep in three instances that it scraped off the pan. I tisedfour tire chains and seventy-five feet of inch Manila on each front wheel. All this was done on second speed, two stops being necessary owing to the losing of the pan and cleaning the tire chains so they would hold. The last ten miles I placed a cable on another car and brought it with rne. The next daya little oil, a little gasoline and away I went, like a Whirlwind, faster than the express trains, upholding the name my car carries, "The Buick Flying Demon."

It 1h a great surprlso to tho unini tiated to see how uniform the surface of the earth appears when viowocl from a great altitude. Although Indi vidual objects nro hard to Identify. such things ns rlvorn, lakes and rail roads arc ciiHlly recognized by their 'outour. direction or some Blight lnal- vlduallty or characteristic which can rotidlly be shown upon a map, espe cially If tho maps aro made or correct- l ed by tueir who 0y above the earth and get an accurate and literal bird's eye view of Its surface. Objects which seem to loom up with tho great est clearness to ono standing on tho surface of tho earth appear very dif ferent and qulto Inslgultlcnnt whou viewed from above, while n patch of colored soil which would not be no ticed nt all by a persou ntanding on tho ground Is a most valuable land mark to tho air sailor.
