Omaha, Nebraska, June 23, 1899. U. It. SCHNEIDER, 1\0. 11 ED LUND. Chairman. Seoretary. -- ■«., Notice is hereby given that there will be a meeting o{ the republican county central committee o{ Holt oounty held in O’Neill on August 0, 1800, at 1 o’clock p. m. It is earnest ly requested that all members of the committee be present. S. J. Wekkes, Chairman. -- - The congressional convention of the Sixth distriot has been called to meet at Lexington on August 20. Aguinaldo has numerous sympa thizers in O’Neill. They canuot stand prosperity, and are “agin” the government. --«' ■1 — If Silas Holcomb would appear before the senate investigating com mittee in person and make his de uial of the house rent steal, it would probably be more thought of than the message he dictated to his type writer. -- The San Francisco people do not favor Governor Poynter’s scheme of making the arrival of the First the occasion for a populistic jubilee. They desire to welcome the boys as real heroes, as they are, and not as so many voters to bd conciliated for political reasons. According to advices from Wash ington it will take at least three weeks to master out the First, and it will take at least a week to reach home after they are discharged, it will be the first of September before Nebraska will have an opportunity to welcome home her brave sons— The Fighting First. According to J. Sterling Morton a political trust is fully as inimical to publio welfare as any other old trust. Upon that question Mor ton’s head is as level as a billiard table.—Bix. And yet the pops are one minute denouncing trusts, and accusing the republican party of upholding the.r formation; and the next minute are : deep in their plans for the forma tion of a gigantic trust, composed of i pops, democrats, prohibitionists, «> mugwumps, anarchists, and all the political sore heads in the country, the sole object of which is to laud the mouth piece of the silver mine trust, William J. liryan, in the pres idential chair. Verily the ways of the roformer (?) are beyond compar ison. Among the names we hear spoken of as being likely to bo presented to the republican state - convention for the oflico of judge of tho supreme court is that of Judge Charles T. Dickinson of Tekemnh. Should Judge Dickinson consent to be a candidate the stato convention would make no mistake by nominating him. He has presided on the district bonch of Omaha during the past four years and has shown himself to bo one of the ablest jurists of tho state. He is clean, capable, and has been iden tilied with no faction. As was expected, a goneral attack is being made on the national ad ministration by a San Francisco paper with a Now York and Omaha attachment. A few interviews with Nebraska boys have boon printed, denouncing General Otis. These interviews, when seen in print, aro for the most part repudiated by tho men, who say that tho language is that of an unscrupulous reporter in stead of their own. Silent consent to the suggestivo remarks of tho in terviewer is mado the pretext for columns of pretended interviews.— State Juurnal. The republican press of the sixth congressional district continues to maintain an unbroken front in favor of the nomination of JudgeKinkaid, barring the Kearney Sun and Shel ton Clipper, which have endorsed the candidacy of Mr. Beeman for local political reasons. The nomi nation of Judge Kinkaid is assured and it ought to bo made unanimous ly and by acclamation. At this juncture he is the choice of the party. Moreover there is a general belief that ho will be elected, and it is well to remember that with this prestige and enthusiasm the battle is half won from the moment the nomination is made.—Kearney Hub. In the face of the following press report from San Francisco we won der what disposition Poynter will make of that $1,000 of state money he took with him, ostensibly to feed the soldiers. Will he turn it back into the treasury, or will he do as Holcomb did, just keep it and say nothing? For he would not be justified in spending it. “The soldiers at the Presidio have an excellent bill of fare. Besides the regular ration of fresh meat, bread, potatoes, coffee and vegeta bles, they have canned fruit, butter aud milk. The companies also havo mess funds with which they buy fresh fruits and vegetables. The new kitchens and dining halls are found to be models of convenience, in fact the complaint, comes from certain sources that the boys are being treated extra good as an in ducement tor them to re-enlist.” AGUINALDO AND HIS ALLIES. Chicago Times-Herald: In its absurd bombast and multiplication of words Aguinaldo’s speech at Tur lac is not very different from the j utterances of the “liberators” of Spanish America. The mcdel is Spanish, as theirs was, and it will answer for an appeal to Indian or Malay and to half caste equally well. What is significant in the speech is the reference to American sympa thy for the Filipino cause. This proves the truth of the assertion that the insurgents have been en couraged iu their course by the un patriotic agitation of our anti-ex pansionists. The chief has actually been persuaded that some of the states of this union have riaon in his favor and he singles out the demo cratic party for special and unenvia ble distinction. That party, he says, is convinced that both victors and vanquished will Joso precious lives aud he argues that “thus many of the people and many statesmen censure president McKinley as in human for having ordered his mili tary representatives at Manila to seek means to bring about hostilities with the Filipinos.’’ This logic must be pleasaut read ing tor kucIi statesmen, say, as Sen ator Hour, who still classes himself as a republican, and for the demo cratic leaders. They are ranked as allies of the enemy of their country and they are made to endorse an unqualified falsehood The presi dent did not order his representa tives to provoke hostilities. He and they were both anxious to establish friendly relations with the natives, who precipitated the campaign themselves. That is an incontro vertible fact. We have no doubt, however, that among the tirades of anti expansion any chargo against the administra tion may be found and certainly the democratic party will have reason to be thoroughly sick of its new eulo gist. The man without a country is fortunate indeed by comparison with that other man who has a country which he is betraying to his foes. The former may go down “unwept, unhonored and unsung” but the latter will be execrated. Curious that the lesson of the civil war should have been so 60on I forrrotten. A PROFESSIONAL CANDIDATE. Recently the Chicago Times-Her nld published an article on Bryan’s leadership, which was very compli mentary to that gentleman, und which was truthful in its statements. It was paraded with excusable pride by the democratic organs because, for one reason, the Times Herald is a recognized administration organ. The sume paper has published another editorial touching Mr. Bry an’s methods of maintaining demo cratic leadership. Since it contains tho same degree of truth as the for mer article, his friendly organs ought to take the same interest in parading this one. Following is an excerpt which will doubtless be of service to them: “The announcement that Bryan will be a delegate to the next demo cratic national convention will sur prise no one who has followed the theatrical career of the toy soldier of the Platte, since he played the title role in the Coliseum one-act farce of 1800. “Mr. Bryan stands alone in the history of our politics as a seeker for the presidency with no other vis ible interest or occupation aside from devoting himself assiduously to the promotion of his candidacy*. Although time and the workings of nature’s laws have completely oblit erated the economic absurdities that led to his nomination in 1896, he has clung tenaciously to his purpose to secure the nomination in 1900. Nature has demolished Bryanism, but Bryan is still with us. From his spectacular appearance in a Georgia camp as “colonel” of a Ne braska regiment of volunteers, pos sessing no military training or knowledge, innocent of gunpowder as a newborn babe, to his speeches at firemen’s tournaments and fat stock shows for a division of the re ceipts, Bryan’s career exhibits all of the fnrcial characteristics of opera bouffe.”—Fremont Tribune.
