Bryan Is seeking relaxation as a
leader of Omaha society. Evidently he
still thinks he has the qualities of a
leader.
Carter is right in thinking that the
republicans should not depend entirely
upon confidence to elect a president
next year.
Perhaps if those who will receive no
Christmas gifts could get those given to
people who do not appreciate them
everybody would be happier.
. The republican aide of the house is
typical of the republican party: it has
so many able men that it is difficult to
choose those entitled to special honors.
David Wells, the free trader, is out
in favor of a third term for Cleveland.
' He had as well make up his mind that
this country will have no more free
traders for president.

Wnnn James G. Blaine waa Journey*
ing through Canada from Buffalo to
Detroit during the former Cleveland ad
ministration he waa ealled on for
Speeches along the route and in one
place a man In th! crowd Based, "What
about Cleveland?” The reply was,
"Hr. Cleveland was my competitor*, he
is president of the United States and I
will not say one word ot criticism of
him on British soil.” What a handsome
and patriotic thing that was, and in
what marked contrast it is with some of
the speeches of Ambassador Bayard,
who is British minister and from the
banqpet halle of his British friends
criticises the people and the government
of the United States.—Fremont Tribune;
Tan National Association of Ameri
ca Wool Growers held session at Wash
ington lest week, Judge Lawrence of
Ohio presiding. Resolutions were
passed asking congress to restore the
entire woolen schedule of the McKinley
tariff. This would afford both protec*
,, tlon to the wool growers and additional
revenue to the government. It is early
yet to atate what congress ia likely to
do. We are assured, however, that
there is every disposition on the part of
' Di* republicans, both In the senate and
% In the house of representatives, to af
ford aome measure of relief to the
wool growers. That this must be done ,
fls the first suggestion ot every friend of
protection. There will be no oppoei*
' lion on the part of manufacturers ot
woolen goods, who would much rather
be doing business under the McKinley
tariff than under the Gorman bill.—

Thla gives the populists a plurality of
282, with the gold or silver democrats or
prohibitionists holding the balance of
power. It should be borne in mind that
a great many voters were careless in
voting for regents—in fact about 2000
voters in the district voted for supreme
judge and failed to vote for regents. A
fair average of the vote in the district,
including the vote that was kept at
home by tbe storm indicates that the
real populist plurality in the district is
from 1000 to 1500, or about midway be
tween that on regent and that for su
preme judge.
The indications now' are that there
will be an active contest in both the re
publican and populist conventions for
the congressional nomination in this
district.
The candidates for the republican
nomination so far os heard of will be
Judge Kinkaid, Matt Daugherty, F. M.
Dorrington, A. K. Cady, of St. Paul,
Judge Grimes, of North Platte, Judge
Hamer, of Kearney, Judge G. W. Heist,
of Sidney, and D. B. Jencks, of Cliad
ron. Judge Kinkaid will go into the
convention tbe strongest candidate and
the chances are favorable to bis nomina
tion—although it is by no means certain.
For the independent nomination the
candidates spoken of are, W. L. Greene,
of Kearney, Fulton Gannt, of North
Plattee, H. H. Hiatt, of Broken Bow,
Gov. Holcomb, H. F. Rhodes, of Valley
county, M. F. Harrington, of O’Neill,
Judge Mutz, of Keya Paha, E. L.
Heath, of Rushville, and Senator H. G.
Stewart. ( It is wholly impossible to
predict who will be nominated by the
independents, or even who will have the
Strongest support to start with in a field
so numerous as this.— Chadron (pop)
