Mat Daugherty, the oily-tongued Irishman from Ogalalia, our next con gressman from this district; do you hear? --- Kinkaid could not beat the field and the perfidy of delegates from other counties who went to the convention instructed for him. Kikkaid was defeated for the nomi nation, but let that go now and put forth your best efforts for Mat Daugherty, the mad from Ogalalia. -- Some people seem to think it strange that this paper will not support the representative combination. Has there ever been a time when Tuk Frontier was not an advocate of honest politics? What's the use of populist papers denying that Senator Allen was drunk? He is human and drank whiskey, and when humans drink whisker they get drunk, and that’s all there is to It. Better own up the corn and plead justi fication. _ _ _ A hood way to settle that little dis pute between Majors and MacCall is to nominate Lorenzo Crounae. Mr.Crounse has made an excutive of which any etate might well be proud and It dosen’t , look exactly right to allow him to retire with only one term. , • Chances for icpublican success in Holt oounty may have gone to the devil entirely but we still have a senatorial v and congressional district, besides the atat% to look after, and no boulder ahould be left unrolled to make a repub lican majority in each. Nice support the Graphic gives the f republican ticket. It devotes half a column to Trommershausser but says : nary a word relative to his running mate.'W. S.'Griffith. This only supports the theory advanced by us last weok. It’a a poor rule that isn’t as long at on« end as the other. --■ If the members of the state delegation from this county wish to do something in the convention for which they will nevet be sorry they should vote for Will Maupin for secretary of etate. It nom inated he will do the greates job of ’ maupin the earth with the other fellows that you ever saw. Wr are informed that at the inde pendent primaries held in Sheilds town ship last Saturday the old ringsters. were shelved and a set of anti-'ooodlers .elected as delegates. Sheilds is the banner populist township of the county and the majority of them have said that tax list steals and such things cannot go on with their knowledge and consent. -— Pot your ear to the rail and hear that , boom of Maupin’s coming around the curve. It is eminently proper that in the' history of our state at least one newspaper man should be elected to office. Political parties consider no fci favor too great to ask of the newspaper if boys and they are always shoved to the front where the battle most fiercely rages, and they go willingly ; but there 0 is a tide in the affairs of things when a change would be appreciated—and this is one of them. Whin you find an argument made (or ^ young blood in politics, you will always And it made by a young man who wants . office. Our desires form ao> large a V. basis for our argument and our judg ment.—Fremont Tribune. The above is from tbe pen of that usually sensible writer, Ross Hammond. In this instance he is talking through % bis head gear. This Frontier is in favor of more young blood in politics and its editors do not want office nor jfi have they any voung friends that do. J’ft What we want js the retirement of a lot gi of old spavined stagers who have run the organisation into the soup houses. We do not reflect upon any man because fll of his age but we refer to the class of perennial statesmen Who feel that the ' ' party rests upon their shoulders and ' that they must hold some office in ordei V to keep in a perpendicular attitude. Young blood does not necessarily mean young men, but men not learned in the Iw«yt of political chicanery. See? ^ OUR CONGRESSMAN. Mat Daugherty, of Ogalalla, la the man. lie wm nominated jifter a long fight, and nlthoiteli he was not the choice of The Khontiku, nor do we believe at this time that he is aa strong a man as Klnkaid, we sincerely hope for the sake of good government that he may prove a winner. lie In a bright, able man and if elected will do much to redeem tb»big Sixth, lie is a good republican, a representative republioan, but baa brains enough not to be partisan when it comes to legislating for a big district, peopled by all politi cal creeds and full of diversified inter ests. The Omaha Bee sizes Mr. Daugherty up very nicely in the following lan guage: "A resident of Nebraska for nearly twenty years, Mr. Daugherty has for the grenter part of that period labored to build up and advertise the atate as publisher and proprietor of itn Influential county paper. Since his re tirement from the newspaper business he baB been identified with the cattle raising industry, which constitutes the chief factor of the material wealth of the Sixth district. An ardent nnd un flinching republican, Mr. Daugherty has devoted a great deal of his time and energy, in season nnd out of season, to the interests of the party. Uls nomina tion is a merited recognition of inval uable service. The cowboy district has been misrepresented In the national legislature the past four years by a man whose sole claim to a seat m congress was a mortgaged farm aud whose work oil behalf of this state up to this date is not perceptible to the naked eye. With Mat Daugherty in congress, the Sixth district will have no difficulty in getting a hearing for whatever interest they desire promoted at the national capital. Daugherty is intelligent, active and persevering. He is a hustler that will leave no stone unturned when he has an object to accomplish, lie under stands the wants o( western Nebraska as well as anybody and will take pride in attending to these wants to the best of his ability. That is the kind of a man the Sixth district has been looking for ever since the district was created.’’ It is the duty of every republican to work for the interest of the entire re publican ticket, but it is their duty also to make a special fight for Daugherty. Let the war commence now and wage unrelentingly until the republican flag —the stars and stripes—waves triumph antly from the watchtower of the Bnemy's moated castle. Redeem the big Sixth. TO BE OR NOT TO BE? The question of irrigation that has so ihuroughly agitated the minds of the people of Holt and other counties in :his district for the past six months has it last arrived at some degree of per fection and will soon be in such shape :hat the people themselves will be in position to say whether it is to be or is lot to be. We desire to call the attention or our Holt county readers to the proposition made by Mr. Kerr and submitted to the irrigation convention last Monday. The proposition is business-like, and com prehensible, and presents the matter in a way that it may be readily understood. We look upon Mr. Kerr's proposition as very fair. To be sure it is going to cost considerable money for this necessity, but what of it, so long as the project will' furnish a way for raising the money? A great many people we suppose, especially those whose farms do not lie adjacent to the canal, will be inclined to oppose the iaeuance of bonds, and to Cure this adverse inclination they should earnestly and considerately study the table which appears in the article on the first page. $150,000 in bonds is al} that is required from our county, while the amount of money estimated necessary to complete the canal through the county Is $1,268,000, compared to Which the amount of bonds asked is but a drop in the buoket. These bonds, of course, will be paid in a certain number of years by taxation, but ihe farmer who does not get the water must remem ber that it ia the land adjacent to the ditch that must bear the burden of taxa tion on account of its increased valna • Inn As will be seen by tbe proposition the cost of tbe water to the man wbo uses it is trivial when compared to tbe accruing advantages. There is no possible way of figuring that for the first ten years water will cost more than $2.95 per acre and after that but $1.25. The time for arguing tbe advantages of irrigation is past. There is no argu ment. There is not a farmer in tbe county today wbo does not wish that there might be an irrigated strip ot 65 miles where he could go and purchase corn and other cereals for winter feed. A question of more serious moment was never before the people of this county for their consideration and perhaps may never be again. Tbe iron is red hot and should be branded with the brand of enterprise, progression and philan thropy. It is probable that within a few weeks this question of bonds will meet tbe voters at the polls, and it should be treated not lightly, but with intelligence and deliberation. Tub Ewing Democrat has nothing tc say of republican*politics in Holt county. Perhaps Trom. figures that his running mate has not yet been indorsed by tbe democrats. The Wayne Republican comes prett; nearly voicing (lie sentiments of thi paper when it says: “We are not speak ing in the interest of any candidate fo gubernatorial honors, but we think th party at its Omaha convention ought ti steer clear of the 'chronics’. We do no believe it is good politics to place ii nomination the representative of faction or clique, one that cannot com mand the hearty support of hisowi party. It would tyok as though th present lieutenant governor has beei too intimately identified with those no in harmony with the past interests o the state. Let Us look for a candidah on whose garments the stain of the stati house cannot be detected. A catupaigi of defense is not palatable to most o us nor can we go into it with the saim vim and determination to win." Tui Fuontiku was among the first, if no the Drat, to suggest the nntneof Lorenzt (irounse for governor, two years ago and at the present time we arc not sorn for it. It cannot be said that Mr Crnunse has the "etnin of the stub house” upon his garments. Ills owi worst enemies do not say anything o the kind. Fact is he has put in most o his time scouring "stains” from the stati house. As between Majors and Mac£al —give us Crounse.
