Dawes county populists in conven
tion assembled endorsed their “fellow
townsman," E. S. Ricker, for district
judge.

ciety committed a generous act when it
donated $100 each to the Ewing and

Frontier has a head smaller than a

refers to a Holt county melon we take
•no offence.

will be a large convention, the total
number of delegates being 1057. Holt
is entitled to eleven delegates.

It is stated upon excellent authoiity
:'.j that the Wandering Jew is a candidate
for the office of clerk of the district
court. If he should get the nomination
the people won't do a thing to him.
Tns Bee suggests that Tom Majors is
even now arranging preliminaries to
secure the gubernatorial nomination in
1890. If it is true that he is a candidate
every delegation to that convention will
go instructed and he will not be nomi
Bated, either. The party cannot afford
to stub its toe twice on the same nail.
“Our Joe” is not sweating from a
labor performed by him in connection
with the placing of a switch at O’Neill
to connect the Elkhorn and Short Line
g railroads—but he draws his salary with
scrupulous promptness.—Atkinson Plain
Dealer.
Does the Plain Dealer not remember
that the supreme court declared the
• 1 transfer switch law unconstitutional!
.. Or does it make any difference to the
Rain Dealer about the decision of the
court so long as it nurtures a desire to
flip a poisoned pellet into “Our Joe's”
political corporosily?

What has become of those reservoirs
of warm, red blood that Rosey prom
ised to uncork in Omaha in celebration
of tbe appointment of a new fire and
police commission? We haven't beard
of a killing in that city for weeks—but
then Rosey is getting to be such a pre
varicator that we don’t pretend to be
lieve him any more.

Joe Blackburn’s muzzle is off, and
this is a sample of the “hot stuff” he is
ladling out to Kentucky voters: "Christ
lashed with the scourge from the tem
ple a better class of men than are now
controlling the finances of this country.
Those foreign bankers have clutched the
American government in their long,
slimy, greedy, foul, tentacular fingers.’’
---► -
Altiiouuii several populist papers
have been publishing a call for n julic
ial convention to be held at O’Neill on
August 20, it is doubtful that it will be
held at that time and place. There was
a little misunderstanding about the cal),
as is evidenced by the following from
tbe Alliance Grip: “Some populists
have a very queer way of putting their
reform principles into practice. For in
stance the central committee of that
party in Dawes county, instead call
ing a convention for that purpose, went
to work and elected delegates to the
state and judicial conventions. A roar
was the result and the committee had to
come down from its perch. And now
the Chadron Signal accuses M. M. Bul
lock, of UuBhvllle, of calling the judic
ial convention at O’Neill without the
knowledge of a majority of the com
mittee. Bad politics, it would seem, is
not entirely in the old parties.” The
calling of the convention to meet in
O’Neill having caused a row in the
camp the order of the chairman was re
scinded and the matter is now in the
hands of the judicial central committee.
Tiib Frontier last week received a
copy of the Capital Journal, published
at Salem, Oregon. The entire first page
was devoted to our supreme judges,
Post and Harrison and Commissioner
Bagan, who lately visited that city
while making a tour of the west, with
their families, in a special car. The
heading of the article, surrounded by a
bright bluo pencil mark, is very start
ling, enough so in fact to cause the peo-^
pie of Nebraska to take to their tents,
or to the woods, or to strong drink or
something worse. It says our bench is
a "gangrened judiciary,” and calls upon
the press of Nebraska to protect the
people of the state against corporation
judges. Upon the margin, stamped in
red ink, is a request that we send to the
Journal a copy of our paper containing
comments. We have no particular
comment to make. We see no reason
under the sun why our judges should
not travel through the west, or tour the
plains of Timbuctoo if the notion
strikes them. After a careful perusal of
the Journal’s article we are forced to
the opinion that it did not attack the
Nebraska bench without promise of re
ward. Politicians ofttimes move in
mysterious ways their wonders to per
form.
A SMOOTH SCHEME.
Thb Frontier haa received, with re
quest to publish, the following call for
a democratic mass convention:
A democratic mans county convention
of Holt county, Neb., will be held in
Atkinson, Neb., August 19, 1895, at 4 p.
m., for the purpose of electing ten dele
gates to the democratic state convention
to be held in Omaha Aug. 23; also dale
gates to the judicial convention, and the
transaction of any other business that
may properly come before said conven
tion.
Dr. A. L. Blackburn, Chm.
A. W. Miller, Secy.
The editor of The Frontier does
not claim to be a prophet but he believes
he can see through a knot hole. This
mass convention will not be composed
of democrats, but of populists. Aud
for whet? Why, to elect a tree silver
delegation to the state convention and
a Golden delegation to the judicial con
vention, neither of which results could
be obtained in a regular democratic con
vention called by the committee elected
at the last democratic county conven
tion. This scheme is undoubtedly
one of Golden’s. He hopes in this man
ner to plug the judicial convention and
secure the nomination for judge, be
lieving that with the bob tail he can
stand pat and force the populists to in
dorse him. The success ot this gigantic
undertaking will of course depend upon
the degree of cleverness with which it
may be manipulated.
The calling of this convention is a
bold stroke, coming as it does without
the color of political authority and
almost without precedent. Who is this
Dr. Blackburn and by whom was ha
clothed with authority to convene the
democrats of Holt county in a mass
convention? No democrat will atteud
that convention and the delegates it will
send to the state' and judicial conven
tions will be pops of the McHugh
Miller stripe.
The absurdity of this mass conven
tion project- is shown by the following
call from the only convention-author
ized democrats in the county:
The members of the Holt county
democratic central committee arc hereby
culled to meet at the office of 8. M.
Wagers in O’Neill, on Wednesday,
August 21, 1895, at 2 o’clock P. M., for
the purpose of fixing the place and
date and issuing the call for the next
democratic county convention, at which
is to be selected delegates to attend the
state convention and the placing ip
nomination candidates for the several'
county offices to be filled at the ensuing
election, besides the transaction of such
other business as may come before the
meeting.
