The republican electors of the ntate of Nebraska are requested to cend delegates from their several counties, to meet in convention in the city of Lincoln, Thursday, Sep tember z4, 18U1, at lu o clocK a. m., for the purpose of placing in nomi nation candidates for one associate justice of the supreme court, and two members of the board of re gents of the state university, and to transact such other business as maybe presented to the convention THE APPORTIONMENT The several counties are entitled to representation as follows, being based upon the vote cast for Hon Geo. II. Hastings, for attorney-general in 1890, giving one delegate-at-larire to each county, and one for each 1.T0 votes and the major frac tion thereof: Senator (JUAY can do more in live minutes, so to speak, to boom Gov. Pattison for the presidency than Gov. Hill can in live months. It is (Juay who made him a presi dential possibility in the first place Globe-Democrat. Do not speak unkindly of Grover Cleveland. He is going to help McKinley, having been billed for six speeches during the canvass in Ohio. His meetings will be under the management of the democratic party, but V. J. McKinley will be the beneficiary. WHAT is said to have been the Test republican state convention ever held met at Worcetuer, Mass. thirty-seven years ago this weel . A good deal of glorious and in spiring history has been made in this country since then, and the re publican party made nearly all of it -Globe-Democrat. THE St. Louis papers are making a vigorous complaint against sme of their citizens going to New York and Paris to trade, especially in carpets and household furniture. Nobody seems to be happy. We had supposed that when Platte mouth people went to Omaha to trade they were alone in their vil lainy, but now we are told St. Louis is afflicted even worse. We should take comfort from the fact that our folks trade in Nebraska and don't go to New York and Paris as the St. Louis people do. DEATH TO THE TRUSTS Indications are fiat the federal government lias decided to grapple with the powerful irusts in Missouri which ihe state courts have been ' unable to crush. United States ; Good News! THE IlEKALK has always had a high regard for John Watson but we believe lie made a mistake when he stirred up party politics bj' projecting this "gover nor business" onto public notice. He claims to have been moved sole ly by the demand which came to him by letter from leading republi cans all over the state. The public would like to know the names of these "leading republicans" (r) who have been stirring up the chairman of the state central committee, a: there is a lingering doubt in the minds of the people as to the de mand having come from more than three or four nleii. and some of them now refuse to stand by it.

W. Lansing, president of the re publican state league of Nebraska, has issued' an address to his fellow republicans congratulating them on the favorable outlook for party success and encouraging the rank and file to keep up an organization and a live party spirit. The Globe-Democrat is usual I- very correct in its history of men aim events, but it errs in savinir lctulioch, we believe, is the only survivor ot the .Lincoln Cabinet.

PRESIDENT OF THE LEAGUE. Tin-: speech of General James S Clarkson at the reception tendered him on his safe return from Kurope had in it that broad spirit and true American ring which touches men's hearts, if heart they have As President of the National Kepub lican League, his utterances natur ally attracted attention in advance as reflecting the spirit of the great national organization of which he is the head. He came back from his European trip prouder than ever of America and American institutions. As he happily said, the American who goes abroad to study other nations finds that the American is a com posite of the better races of Kurope and the discovery tends to broaden him and make him still more an American. . In the course of his address Gen. Clarkson showed his own broad American spirit by declaring that "Any enterprise which depends for success on human beinge must have humanity represented in its standard-bearer. Give us breadth and increase the growing breadth of the part3r. The recruiting field of the republican party extends everywhere. The party is growing more tolerant in every wa3r, and we are gaining many thousands of Irishmen, and there are half a mil lion of Irishmen in the democratic party that belong to us. I am of Puritan origin and Protestant faith, but I have as much faith and con fidencein the patriotism and loyalty of the members of the Catholic church as of any other denomina tion in America. Kvery battlefield in America has been wet with Catholic blood, shed in defense of the Republic." These were sentiments worthy of the American and Christian patriot that General Clarkson is. They in terpret the constitution aright. They wake responsive chords in the souls of all true Americans, Catho lics and Protestants alike. They are sentiments to tie men s Hearts together, to rouse enthusiasm, to lead to victor3'.

The United States court for the middle district of Tennessee has held the law constitutional. Yours Trul-, W. II. II. Miller, Attorney General. Mr. Rej'iiolds sa3-s that he has made a careful study of the statute and finds that it probably applies to many large concerns in this state. He .says he has not as yet completed his plan of campaign but will soon have things in shape and must depend to a large extent 011 assistance Horn puimc spiraea citizens. When asked if he had nny particular trust in view he said he must decline, at this time, to go into details. Telegram to Inter Ocean. J. HE reconstructed soutli every few da3-s gives eridenceof the real feelings entertained by the people toward thenorih andtoward the old flair. General Early in an address the o'therday concluded his speech b3' saying, aud let ever3r honest hearted Confederate who fought bravely in Hie war say. If I should ever apologize lor a?y part or act;on taken by me in the war, may the Ijoiittiingof Iherightous heaven blast me irom the earth, and may be considered a spawn of the earlh by all honest men. 1V0 regret tor the bloou that was 6hed, no regrets for an unholy war in the interest of human slavery, no regrets for the desolate homes and disconsolate widows and orphans made in an effort to destroy the government under which they now live. Verily the lightn ing of a rightous heaven ought to strike him or any other man thai dared to utter such sedi tious language. The fangs and claws are only covered up; the new South we read of can only be found in books and newspapers, as it does not exist elsewhere. A CABLEGRAM from London makes much of the statement that business property was recently sold in the English metropolis "at the rate of $2,500,000 per acre." Chic ago is only half a century old, but the English boast is dwarfed by re cent transactions in realty. The corner lot upon which the Inter Ocean Building stands cost $7,500 per tront toot, loia would .mean at a rate of $8,157,500 per acre. This sale created so much of a stir that Fred Leslie, the English comedian, nightly sighed for "a scarf pin mounted with a lump of that corner- lot dirt." The northeast corner of Clark and Waskington, where the Reaper Blocs stands, was recently sold for $100 per square foot, and the northwest corner of State and Madison for $92. Botli these sales would mean over $1,C30,C30 per acre. -Inter Ocean. No wonder St. Paul teels ag grieved. When she undertook to 1 make her census Minneapolis poked in her nose and spoiled all the fun. When she spent some $20,000 for a little "scrap" then the sheriff and the governor jumped in and threatened to arrest the town. St. Paul has about reached the con clusion that "this is no free coun try." Ex. ONE of the Southern orators the other day remarked, in speaking of Jefferson Davis, that "Virginia will guard and honor the remains of one who has sacrificed so much, not only for the Confederacy, but for the whole country as well." The general impression is, and has been . lor some time, that Jefferssn Davis was the luckiest criminal ever pro--arwiuced upon American soil. si. i'aul, num., aispatcn sa3rs that city has been made the head quarters of a national movement on tne part ot tne alliance to corner the wheat crop and thereby obtain fancy prices. The plan is to unite the farmers in a gigantic wheat trust in which the farmers or pro ducers will be the stockholders and by which speculators and wheat buyers are to be squeezed to the wall, George D. Miller is said to be at the head of the organization. We should smile to see a deal of that kind that would beat the specula tors. The chances are, the specula tors would get onto the markets and would soon make as much out of it as the farmers. But if the farmer thinks the trust is such a wonderful institution to make money we know of no better way of convincing him in regard to the facts than for him to try it awhile. we siiouiu like to see better prices realized for what is produced in the west but we don't believe the trust scheme is advisable. The soldier population of Ne braska and adjoining states is placed at 300,000 at least. Very few Oitliese.oomrsid.es nave been per mitted to attend any of the national reunions of the Grand Army- on ac count of the expense incident "to a long journey. An encampment has never been held within 500 miles of Lincoln, the central point in this vast region which is peo pled with old soldiers. These vet erans ask that the encampment in 1892 be held in the midst of the Missom i valley in order that they may attend in large numbers. Such a request cannot fail to have its influence when the matter is finally put to a vote at the Detroit meeling next month. State Journal to It was a grand rain that fell great abundance this morning. 111 1 A DEMOCRATIC PROPHECY. This prophecy is attributed Governor Cam pbell of Ohio: "After the canvass is two weeks old you will hear almost nothing outside of the tariff." Govei .ior Campbell is speaking of the canvass in Ohio, where he is 1 candidate ior re-election. If he is CO' .eci in nis prognostication, and that is Iv's programme, another prophecy is in order. Aiter the canvass is eighteen weeks old you will hear almost nothing of Governor Campbell. New York Sun, THE sound money principles will win again in Ohio. Nothing is more certain. That state has gone through more than one fight on the finanical question and the wise leadership of John Sherman has always resulted in victory for the right. Governor Campbell free silver platform is sufficient to con demn him and his party at polls in October if there were no other is sues. The home of the man who brought about the resumption of specie payments, in the face of a virulent democratic opposition will not go back on him now. Campbells defeat resolves itself into a ques tion of how emphatic the level headed people of Ohio wish to con demn the relict of greenbackism and free-trade. syslera U ridding nscit through the uktm ot uupuriUea which it waa the IcKiUmate wont ot Uio liver and kidneys to rwHuvu.
