On the first of Janaary the beans will be counted in Fitzgerald's hall by two disinterested parties who will be selected for that purpose. An admission fee of ten cents will be charged, and the proceeds will be divided among the poor people of 1 ho city. It will cost you nothing to guets, The editor of the Journal has cul tivated the very unmanly habit of approaching republicans who chance to open up conversation with their demo cratic friends on the streets, and contra dieting their statements when his advice is uncalled for. Last night the eye doc tor opened up on a staunch democrat and was stringing out facts to him so rapidly that it made his head ewim. C. Whop per chanced to pass that way and not being content at minding his owu busi ness, advised the professor's hearers to move on and not pay any attention to liiiu as he did not know what he was talking about. C. W. by so saying re lieved his democratic brethren and took the whole responsibility upon his own shoulders. If the Prcfessor had had a pair of smoked glasses in his pockets he would haye presented tliem to him, for any covering for his sheep eyes at th.it time would nave proved a great relief. Mr. S. wa3 knocked out in the first round, and we trust that eucIi a lessen will do him good. The democrats would thank him if he would keep t n his own side of the street and did not Interfere frith them. From Friday's Dally. It is estimated that there were over 5,000 people in the procession at Council Bluffs last night during the rally,' and also that there were over 25,000 people on the streets. The Glenwood ladies club secured the prize, which was a silver water set valued at $100, for being the best dril led and finest appearing ladies club at Council Bluffs last night. If a subscrip tion paper had been circulated in behalf of the ladies club over the river the night they afforded the republicans such a pleas ant surprise here, there is no doubt that five times that amount could have been raised here without an effort. We most heartily congratulate them on their success. From Saturday's Daily. The fifteen months old son of Mr. George Godwin died last night- after a very peculiar illness. The child has been quite sick for some time and has gradually lost flesh until its death. A short time before the child died it is said that the entire body became perfectly discolored and resembled that of a color ed child. The doctors report that it was the first case of the kind ever known here i before. The cause is unknown. The funeral will leave the parents' resi dence, 10th and Gold streets, tomorrow afternoon at 2:30, after a short service which will be conducted by Rev. J. T. Baiad, of the Presbyterian church.

They suc ceeded in carrying away a few valuables. The work on west Oak street was completed last Saturday. The hills and hollows of the street have been graded to a level with the street car track, and it now presents a very attractive appear ance as a pleasant drive. When all the work now in progress is completed, Plattsmouth will have as pleasant drives as can be desired. "Joe" the popular one price clothier has made an offer to the public worth special notice. lie offers a .$20 suit of clothes to the person guessing the correct number, or the nearest to it, of beaus contained in a jar. No expense is con nected with the guess, and if this ia not a splendid good chance for some man to secure a suit of clothes as a present, we lose our guer-s. Mr. Mart Cushing, who was obliged to protect his home last Sunday afternoon against insults from Mr. Rogan, with whom he had a tussle, wishes the public to know that Rogan is not in the fault 9o mu"h as was at first supposed. He informs us that it was a job put up by the strikers to be revenged on him, and that they knew he was at home at the time. Their desire was to get him thumped, but the scheme did not work. A German-American Anti-prohibi tion meeting was held in Rockwood hall last Saturday night. The B. & M. band was engaged for the purpose of calling a crowd, and they succeeded as the house was crowded to its utmost capacity. Mr. J. V. Weckbach was appointed chairman of the meeting, and in a few well chosen words introduced the Hon. W. S. Shoe maker, of Omaha, as the first speaker. In his speech he strongly denounced the ac tions ot the republican party in the adoption of the submission plank, stating that such an act was not necessary. He advanced the argument that the people Lwere sovereigns and had the power to pass any kind of a prohibitory liquor law, and hence on necessity for submit ting the question that prohibition in the constitution would not be safe acting, tnd a law to enforce it would have to be passed. lie evidently took the platform with the intention of making a . - . light democratic speech, as he gav vent to his democratic sentiments very : : q . nt ly. Prof, E. C,- f Onmlia' then followed with his speech ir; ' ;.,ian. The points made by him were similar to those of his friend. The crowd was as large as has attended any meeting during the campaign. CITIES IN WEDLOCK. TheOpenlngof the New Iron Blidge Uniting Council Bluffs and Omaha Enthusiastically Celebrated. Motive Power From Electricity. About a year ago contracts were let and operations began for the erection of a bridge over the Missouri river between Omaha, Nebraska, and Couucil Bluffs, Iowa, to accommodate the growing pass enger and commercial traflic between tliose two cities; the budge to be built for motor cars propelled by electricity, with wagon and foot ways to either side of the bridge. During the fall and winter months deep casions were sunk and piers erected, and as the spring and summer months of this year advanced, the piers of iron and solid masonry, which rested on solid rock be neath, were made to bear up the trcssel- work for an iron bridge, the bud of en thusiasm started by the announcement of the bridg cproject burst into a flame of excitement. Real estate rect ived the first impetus, and building and general business improvement followed. Yesterday was the day set apart for the opening of the bridge to the public characterized as a wedding day of cities (united for good or bad, prosperity or depression of business). It was a day of jubilee for all the rival spirit of years past was suddenly changed to a feelin of brotherly loye and "good in common" view. The street in Couucil Bluffs leading to the bridge was paved completely so one can travel from the bridge into Iowa four miles and a half over cedar block and stone payement without materially changing his direction. In Omaha the bridge opens on Douglas street. The tlouble track for the electric motor cars extends from Omaha to the M. E. church on upper Broadway in Council Bluffs, a distance of about four miles. The elec tricity is generated at the electric house about one mile cast of the bridge and is I, lulls Welcomes Omaha." Suspended from the trusses of the center span of the bridge was an immenrse ring, covered with bunting and flags, bearing the in scription, "Truly Wed." Under this riog the carriages of Governors Larrabee and Thayer were driven beside each other. Mr. Thomas Baldwin, as master of cere monies, now stepped forward and requested the revcrened Bishop Newman to pronounce an invocation, which he did, invocing God's blessing npon the two cities so auspiciously brought together. John T. Stewart was intro duced, and made a short address. At this junction the scene on the bridge was a grand and magnificent sight. Here stood the governors of two great states, surrounded by their staff officers. These officers, in their rich and magnificent uniforms, mixed with the civilians, made a most impressive and gorgeous picture one that will not soon be forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to be present. Governor Thayer made an address on behalf of the people of Nebraska, but the screeching of steam whistles, cheers of the people and sharp crack of firearms, made it impossible to hear much of what was said. Governor Larrabee, made a response on behalf of the people of Iowa. At the THE NEXT LEGISLATURE. There is no doubt about the designs of the democratic leaders of the McShane clique; while they make war on Gov. Thayer, they do not expect to defeat him but they do hope to capture t lie legisla ture of this state. This is fi ir detign and money is being freely placed to ac complish that object. This would insure the return of John A. McShane to the United States senate from Nebraska and with a like gain in another quarter the senate of the United States would become democratic and the solid srath bi again restored to its ancient inheritance of the full and complete control of this govern ment. Then should Mr. ILiriisoii be elected he would be poweiless to act. Dakota would be kept out of the union and four years from now the political status of the country would be precisely as it is today. Mr. Harrison as president and the republicans in possession of con gress the rights of Dakota would be recognized, two new republican states would be added to the union and democ racy with its free trade; its ballot box stuffing; its southern system of Mexican ization, would be relegated to the back ground never to figure again in American affairs until it was reorganized on a plat form in harmony with our free institu- finna n 1 1 ..I 1 1 .. j r ,.,,., , -. . i . , .

At tins juncture Mrs. Rohrer and Mrs. Broateh each broke a bottle of wine upon the bridge, and Bishop Newman pro nounced the words that firmly bound the two cities together.

If the policy of supporting McShane democrats by leading republi cans in Cass county because of disappoint ments in controlling nominations, is to prevail, it would be well to abandon the party organization at once. If a man stands back, sulks over the nominations, saying, "Oh yes I will support the ticket but I don't like the nominees" he is in point of fact throwing his weight and influenca against the ticket and his party. This is poor polities, it is not square dealing, for if a nomination is fit to be supported at all, it is fit to be supported honestly nnd bravely; especially by the leaders of a party which are continually asking and receiving favors as party im-n.

Equal in every respect and iu many the superior of those nominated by the democracy of the county. So we urge upon all republicans and especially upon those recognized as the leading men of the party, who have receiyed substantial benefits at its hands, to come up like men and support this ticket.
