CENTRAL COMMITTEE MEETING.
The Holt county republican cen
tral committee ia hereby called to
meet in O’Neill on Saturday, August
7, 1897, at 2 o’clock p. m., in The
Frontier office for the purpose of
fixing a date for the county conven
tion, aud for the transaction of such
other business as may properly come
before the meeting.

Secretary. Ohairman.
Tn tariff bill is now a law and
the American mechanic will soon
begin to realize the benefits of the
protective policy.
All is not harmony in the popu
list official camp. The county
attorney threatens to make it warm 1
for a few of them.
Sixteen to one will not do for the
populists this year. The ratio is
about 800 to 1. Three hundred
candidates for every office. ■

Populist officials have been .
taking junketing tours at the ex- ,
pense of the taxpayers. Great is ,
reform and the Holt county reform
era
It is reported that the name of i
.every candidate for the populist 1
v nomination for county treasurer,
- except Kautzman’s, is on the court- :
- house ring slate.
With good dean men for its nom
' inees, the republican party will be
invinoible this fall. Let us nomin
ate men in whom the people have

question as to the result

this county, informed us Monday
t: that he was ’ going to the j
Klondyke country to try his luok at |

that Jonas will succeed in making a (
stake in the frozen north, but we are ]
of the opinion that before he has
traveled the 2400 miles up the ]
- Yukon river to the Klondyke valley ,
that he will wish jhat he was back ,
in Dixon mixing pills and writing (
editorials for the Tribune.

. It ib said (hat parties, like repnb
lies, are ungrateful, bat the prompt
confirmation of R. H. Jennees’ ap
pointment to the important position
of receiver of public moneys at the
O’Neill land office, proves that the
republican party is not nnmindf nl of
. those who faithfully serve it Diok
Jennees didnH work in the legisla
ture as we would have him work.
He was a republican first, last and
all the time. We can find no fault
to a man who acts his part to his
party and stands by his colors,
though we may have no use for the
party he serves with. Dick Jennees
has many friends here who admire
him for himself, though deprecating
. his gold bog polities, and it is a
source of gratification to them to see
that his services to his party has met
such prompt recognition. We are
of those who believe that to the
victor belongs the spoils and the re
publican party has acted wisely in
patting Mr. Jennees into a position
in Holt county, where he can render
it good service and where they need
it badly. If some other parties that
we wot of had acted in the same
way instead of giving their “plums’
to men who had never done anything
to build up the party and couldn’t
do anything if they could, the fusion
party of Douglas oounty would not
be in the demoralised condition it is
today. “Thiggin thu.”—Western

The York Times makes the follow
ing interesting and timely compari
son: “When the editor of the Times
was secretary of the state senate he
drew pay for eighty-two days. The
regular days of the session are sixty
bat the legislators held a few days
over time and daring the adjourn
ment the secretary, being in charge
of the help and responsible for the
property, has to be on hand and is
paid for his time. So are all other
employees. There is generally
work enough accumulated to keep
him busy daring a day or two that
the senate may be idle. He drew
no pay for Sundays, though there
was not a Sunday daring the session
that he was not at the state house
looking after the matters in his
charge, it was not a very lucrative
job, and the entire amount drawn
was 1328. His populist successor,
Mr. Schwind, made it more lucrative.
He managed to put in 151 days
luring the session. Just how he
Sgured it some populist will have to
ixplain. The republican secretary
lid not intend to donate anything
<o the state, he did all that was
required of him, had less help than
•he pop secretary, and yet drew pay
tor only a trifle over half as many
lays. This is populist reform with
i big E, and economy with a
reugence.
PERILOUS GOLD HUNTING.
It is to little purpose, perhaps, to
warn those who have made up their
ninds to seek fortune in the Klon
Iplce gold region that it is a most
perilous undertaking. Most men
who fall under the influence of the
{old craze will risk any danger in
piest of the yellow metal. It is
well, however, to state the faot that
lowhere on the known earth is there
i more inhospitable region than that
in which the new discoveries of gold
lave been made. It lies within the
irctio circle and of course winter
iiolds perpetual reign there, the
temperature falling to 60 and 70
legrees below zero. During six
months of the year there is no sun
ihine in that region and those who
lave visited it say that in this
period it is indescribably gloomy.
It is almost inaccessible and under
the most favorable conditions as to
weather those who go there must
aperience great hardships before
eaching their destination. By
lotober the Yukon river becomes a
>olid mass of ice, transportation by
his route stopping of course much
larlier. Great difficulty will there
ore be found in keeping this region
>rovisioned, and it is needless to say
hat there is very little to be found
here for subsistence. In a word, it
s a region barren of almost every
hing necessary to sustain human
ife and many of those who have
{one there have died of starvation,
deny more, there can be no doubt,
rill experience the same fate, while
ome will succumb to the terrible
told and to the hardships they will
moounter.
Going • to the Klondyke gold
egion is a very different matter
rom going to the Cripple Creek
egion, for instance. In the one
ase the hunter takes himself far
>eyond the pale of civilization,
rhile in the other he was within the
rounds of civilization and where
here was an abundant supply of
everything necessary to subsistence.
Hut as we have said, however great
he perils and dangers of going to
he Klondyke region, they will not
leter those who are determined to
nek fortune there. Thousands of
nen will stake their life on this
ihance and many will lose the stake,
shile relatively few will reap for
iune even if the region should prove
» be as rioh in gold as the most
languine believe it to be.—Bee.
Whik, hereafter, banks make ap
plication for public money, it ought
bo be with the understanding that
publicity goes with the deposit. The
public is entitled to know the loca
tion of evety cent of publio money.
The breakdown of the bonding sys
tem leaves complete publicity, the
chief safeguard of city, county and
state treasuries. When every cus
todian of publio funds knows that
he must make a monthly showing of
his accounts, and that the peneten
tiary will be sure to receive him if
he betrays his trust, there will be no
more treasury troubles in Nebraska.
