In the Second district HI Hodgkin is
rnnnlng against Vigilanter Hopkins for
supervisor. There should be no quos
tlon as to the outcome of this contest. <
With a man like Tom Golden on Its
ticket the Beacon Light promises to
make this a campaign of personal vitu
peration. Truly fools do rush in where
angels fear to tread.
Babnky McGbbbvy has been nomi
nated by O'Neill and Grattan pop! for
< aupervisor. And the Beacon Light
C wants a personal campaign. Well, we
rather guess we can accommodate it.
’< -»--•»-*
Tub latest poll of the county shows
\ .that the populist vote has dwindled
t down to the Mullen family. Well, the
? . Mullen family has been the populist
" party of Holt county for the past five
years anyway.
Thb Smudge says the issue in this
campaign is “Beacon Light or no Bea
con Light." That seems to be more or
; less true and both republicans and in
* / dependents are working for the same
: ; end, although they have different ideas
regarding the better way to bring about
^tbe result.

; “I bats known Judge Kinkald for 12
: years, and I don’t believe any man can
, truthfully say one word against him,”
remarked one of O’Neill's most ardent
; V pops within hearing of a Frontier re
0 porter this week. Golden’s chance of
|y election is noticeable on account of its
| somber bue.

I Robbt staked bis ali on the police
commission tight and lost. It Is now
said that be will retire from the editorial
management of the Bee and that his son
Victor will succeed him. If the son

newspaper and less to running the state.

_ ' Sam Maxwell baa accented the pop
nomination for supreme. judge “in the
. same spirit in which it was tendered."
dome to think of it, it wasn't tendered
with i^uch spirit. He was nominated
by a convention of 800 men when the
. .. roll ealled for 700. The big county of
- Holt, for instance, was represented by
* the Jew single-handed.
m*-- v . _______
as-.
If Maxwell is a republican, what, In
the name of Abraham Lincoln, la hi*
name doing on the popullat ticket? The
man who will run against him ia also a
republican and hia asaociatea will be re
publicans and he therefore will not be
in bad company. The pops of Holt
county concede the defeat of the old
man and ho might as well hare hia
•name stricken rrom the roll and thus
avoid disgrace.
Tub Beacon Light says the Bun has
no claims on popullam, but we notice
the Bun office in populist headquarters
Just the same. Almost any night one
passing the 8nn office can see there in
dose consultation J. P. Mullen, Art
Mullen, Mike Harrington, Sam Howard,
Bill Bethea, et. al. While the Beacon
dalms to be the only pop otgan and
battle-winning sheet in the county, we
notloe the men who are running for
office give the dugout a wide berth.
Wkbh you hear a man or see a news
paper any that Jim Binkerd was run out
of the county by republicans for polit
ical effect, Just else up thffit man or
newspaper and if he or it doea not be
long to the gang who said, first, that
Barrett Scott was run out of the country
by his friends to avoid his appearance
bond, and second, after his dead body
was found, that he had been killed by
his friends, we will give a year's sub
scription for the discovery.

Tan Beacqn Light says it might be a
good idea to expert the city govern
ment We woold suggest to the Jew
that he employ a private expert as he
did not long ago to expert Sheriff Ham
ilton. After, the private expert had re
ported on Hamilton’s affairs the Jew
went Into the convention and tried to
defeat him for arenomlnatlon. What
wil the matter, Ham T Is he short in
Msaoeooats? If so, how does it come
|hnt you, a reformer, are supporting
Urn? If not short in his accounts, why
. not publish the expert's findings in re

We are promised another blood-curd
ling story, entitled “Ringster Riley; cr
His Private Practices in Public Print,”
br Ham Kautzman, author of "A Lie
Hailed;” “Single Sight the Expert; or
A Sheriff’s Deficit;” “The Jew’s Jag; or
From the Outterto the Editorial Chair;”
“Billy the Bilk the Bowery Bravo; or
The Lusher’s Legacy;” “The Court of
Last Resort; or The Vigilanter's Ven
geance;” "Populist Reform; or How
We Con. Our Confiding Constituency;’’
etc.
Two years ago the pops, so it is said,
put the assessment screws to Superin
tendent Jackson in great shape, telling
him that be was the weakest man on
the ticket. If current report Is to be
credited they are adopting the same
tactics this year. It >s not a fact that
Mr. Jackson is the weakest man on the
populist ticket. Joss Mullen is the
weak man and it’s not right to make
one man pay all the expenses of the
campaign. By, the way, what do the
populists want with campaign money
anyway ? The first ticket the populists
nominated was pledged to use no cigars,
money or whisky in aiding its election.
That was an cutwartf show of reform,
but their practice reveals a rotten core.
The special from O Neill to the State
Journal laat week regarding the action
of the v'gilantes in the Binkerd case
aroused great indignation among O’Neill
populists and dire were the maledictions
pronounced against the press corres
pondent. These people have suddenly
been moved by a great fear that such
advertising may result in harm to Holt
county, and to prevent a repetition of
the offence one man even suggested a
made-to-order suit of tar and feathers
for the correspondent. These patriots
may be well meaning to a great extent,
but they are certainly misguided- to a
greater extent. That is not the way to
handle the case. The proper thing for
them to do Is to concern themselves to
the end that these bursts of outlawery
may be suppressed and the press cor
respondents will take care of them
selves. Remove the cause if you want
a cure. It is absurd to imagine that any
man with a drop of newspaper blood in
his veins would overlook a piece of
news like the one in question, which, in
any other county on earth, would be a
sensation. And anyway it is not right
to keep such things silent for the sup
posed good of the county: it would be
nothing less than sacrifice of law and
liberty. Freedom should and does
shriek on all such lamentable occasions.
The populist party in Holt county
have shown themseves to be the reform
party in deed as well as in name, and
the renomination of our county officials
who have acquitted themselves so cred
itably thus far during tbeir term of
office, Is considered a just acknowledge
ment of their worth by every honest,
thinking voter in Holt county.—Plain
Dealer.
Don't, Bro. Bates. Don’t write in
that general and glittering way. Speak
by the card and cite your readers to the
book and the page where these feats of
wondrous reform are recorded. When
you just write "at random like a hog
going to war you are liable to confuse
your readers. They may think you re*,
fer to the record of the legal com-,
mittee: the money paid to Harrington
in direct violation of law: the suit
against Scott and - his bondsmen,. in
which, you remember, Scott and the
bondsmen offered to turn over a few
thousand in each and about 940,000 in
securities upon condition that the suit
be dismissed, but which offer was
spurned, the suit prosecuted and the
bond declared invalid on account of its
having been tampered with by populist
officials. The Plain Dealer should be
more expl.'pit. Show us a genuine case
of populist reform and we will make
you a present of Ham Kaulxman in fee
simple.
“Tun renomination of Judges Bartow
and Kinkald by the republicans of the
Fifteen ludlclal district will meet the
approval of the party throughout the
district,** correctly remarks the Dawes
County Journal. “For the past four
years these two gentlemen have occu
pied the bench with eminent satisfaction
to the people, and In that time have
ably demonstrated that they are In the
right place. They have administered
justice with that impartiality that is re*
quired of a man who occupies the posi
tion they have occupied, and there Is
little room to doubt that the people will
express their appreciation of the excel
lent service that these gentlemen have
given by re-electing them.
They are both so well known that
they need no introduction. Their splen
did record on the bench is a greater rec
ommendation than any words can give
them. Both are eminent men in the
legal profession, have a thorough ac
quaintance with every point of the law
and what is more, have the honor, up
rightness and impartiality to apply that
knowledge in a proper and just manner.
Being by ail odds the strongest men
that the republican party could have
nominated and being in every respect
representative republicans they should
be accorded the hearty and undivided
support of every repul »n in the dis
trict. Being good men and true, men
of ability, Just, honorable in every -res
pect, thoroughly conversant with the
work required of them in the office to
which they have been nominated, they
deserve the support of ail good citizens
who are law-abiding and have a desire
to see every man get his deserts. A
vote for Judges Bartow and Kinkaid ia
a vote for the best interests of the ju
dicial district over whose court they
have presided.4*
