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 h;-.: _ - l«l I _ 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.
