,, G*o. Ecklbs, of Chadron, candi
date for auditor, will develop con
siderable strength in the state con
vention. Holt oounty will probably
support him, and it should. Dawes
oounty instructed for Judge Kin
kaid for congress, and turn about iB
fair play.
What are the gold bug democrats
going to do about it, anyway? Can
they now repudiate the arguments
they have advanced during the past
two years and shout for free silver
at 10 to 1 ? It is a good way to
find out if men love principle more
than party. There is oue thing as
certain as any earthly thing can be,
and that is that the sage of Arbor
Lodge will vote for no free Bilver
candidate. J. Sterling will follow
his convictions even though they
lead him without the pale of his
party. We admire him for it

Km’s objections to the concurrent
resolution directing the secretary of
the interior to issue patents to
the Union Pacific railroad company
to all lands sold to bona fide settlers,
deprives over five thousand farmers
in his district from getting good
title to their lands. His objection
- Was purely a matter of spite because
■; the speaker would not recognize him
to enable him to call up his Fort
Sidney bill. Well, the district be
gins to breathe easier, for the days
of Kern are numbered, and it will
never be possible again to get so
useless a piece of humanity as this
district has been compelled to en
dure for six years.—Kearney Hub.
M. P. IfiNKAiD, of Holt county, evi
dently has a lead-pipe cinch on the
nomination to congress from the Sixth
district. He is being urged on the plea
that he is the strongest man in the dis
trict, but the fact ought not to be over
looked that this is a republican year,
and whoever the republicans may nomi
nate it is foreordained that the red
headed ignoramus Kem is defeated —
Blair Leader.
This may be a “republican year,”
but the people don’t want to get the
idea into their heads that jnst any
body can be elected in the Sixth
district, simply because he happens
to get his name on the republican
ticket. The figures of the last
election refute the statement. The
man who is elected here must have
something to recommend him; he
must be well qualified and popular
with the people. It is a fact that
almost any patriot conld defeat
Kem, but Kem will not be a candi
date this year.
--
At last, says the American Econ
omist, the democratic administration
is forced to execute the laws of the
country after months of deliberate
and dishonest attempts to cheat the
American sugar producers. No
such disgraceful effort to tamper
with national legislation has ever
been witnessed. Evasions, shifti
ness, quibbles, humbug and hypoc
risy have been the marked charac
teristics of this piece of democratic
financial jugglery which haB wrought
ruin and hardship, principally to
democrats in a democratic state.
With the sole object of attempting
to bolster up the depleted treasury,
the democratic administration has
resorted to unparalled meanness and
subterfuge, but it is at last forced to
play the part of honesty by order of
the supreme court. Even when this
proper act of justice has been dis
charged, the recipients of the
bounty will be injured far more
than the amount of money that
they receive. We congratulate the
sugar producers upon the success of
their long and hard fight against a
dishonest democratic administration.
A word of praise is due to Senator
Mandereon for his efforts on their
behalf, while odium will ever be at
tached to the two Louisiana sena
tors who could, nearly two years
ago, had they wished, have prevent
ed all this trouble by preventing the
enactment of a tariff devised to
ruin the American sugar producing
interest.
It seeks to be of no use foi the
people of O’Neill to attempt to con
trol the school. board. For, three
successive years now the . school
meetings have been well: attended, a
light made to eleot men'who it was
thought would'act for the best in
terest of the school and be careful
to not allow their prejudice or fav
oritism to cause them to do anything
not calculated to advance school
interests, * The Frontier has always
taken a lively interest in these con
tests,.because it wanted to see men
elected as . members of the school
board who had no friends or rela
tives dependent upon them for pos
itions as teachers; men who could
act without fear or'favor and men
of good judgment, who would se
lect teaohers of ability and disci
plinarians, Bnt we are through
with it. now; our confidence in
human nature has been jarred
again. We cU> not wish to be. un
derstood as opting any reflection
upon , the teachers employed, they
are all that their certificates repre -
sent • them ‘ to be, but the' fact re
mains that, the school board did not
in all cases elect teachers with the
best certificates. We can think of
no excuse for the board electing a
teacher with an inferior certificate
and rejecting another who has a
high grade ce rtificate. . No man
wonld conduct his own affairs in
that manner, and the board should
be as conscientious with the public’s
affairs as its individual members are
with their own.
Judge Woolson, of the United
States district court, sitting at!
Boone, la, the other day made |
quite an innovation in the manner
of handling juries. The case, in
which a broken)an was suing a rail
road company for $15,000 damages,
had been on trio1, over a week and
the jnry retired jnit before 0 in the
evening. They did not readily
agree upon a verdict and at 11
o’clock the judge called them into
the court-room and asked the fore
man if there was a prospect of their
coming to an agreement soon, and
upon being answered that there was
not, announced that he would take
the responsibility of permitting the
jurymen to go home, directing them
to meet again at 8:30 the next
morning. The judge Baid he took
this for the purpose of having it
settled on appeal, if necessary, as to
the legality of the innovation; that
the locking up of a jury in a small
close room all night created ill
feeling and irritation, and that a
verdict thus arrived at was not so
likely to be just and equitable as
when men were calm and refreshed
by a night’s rest, and farther and
more important, it removed one of
the most prominent reasons why
substantial business men shirk jury
duty. If the relic of the past prac
tice of locking up a jury all night
was abandoned, one of the most
unpleasant features of jury duty
would be removed and business men
would not so seriously object to
serving. Tax Fbontier believes
this method of handling a jury
would be the means, eventually, of
working a great reform in the jury
system.
