The democrats of this city arc not dead, they are only sleeping. John A. Davies will address the citizens of Cedar Creek and surrounding country on the 4th of July. The flyer No. 1 went through this n. m. with a full train of vcstabulc cars, this makes two full trains of vestabules now running between Denver and Chica go over the B. & M. Anyone wishing tickets to the Young Men's Republican Banquet on July 12th, 188S, can secure them of J. C. Eikenbary, Stephen Buzzell, or at Frank Carruth's jewelry store, and at the county clerk's office. There will be no service at the Chris tian church next Sunday morning or evening, owing to the absence of the minister. I lev. M. A. Hampton, has taben u vacation to himself and gone home on a short visit. There will be Sunday school nt the usual hour. Monday night it couple of colored people, a man ana woman, attracted a large number of the citizens by their singing. The music was very fine, and more musical voices tlian tlie woman s voices are seldom if ever heard. Al though they passed the hat, they dress well and seem to live hih. Messrs. Sherdon & Co., who have the contract for the sewer woik which is to be done in the city, started their men to work yesterday. They have com menced operation at the rear of Carruth's building, and in a short time, we expect, the city will have every appearance of the visit of an earthquake. . The Pinkcrton fraternity bade f are well to Plattsmouth and returned to Chi ergo, the Burlington Company not re Viuiring their services longer. With one or two exceptions they all acted squarely and as gentlemen. But when a body of men are placed in such a position, and do their duty, all cannot be pleased. We give them credit tot acting in no way partial and doing their duty as they were expected. We notice that Mr. Allen Becson is taking come pride in Sixth street on which he resides. He has employed a man to clip the weeds in front of his residence which grow in such abundance on that street in particular. If a number of other residents, not only of that street, but any street as a person can find them there, would take an interest in the ap pearance of, not only their own property, but the city, they would follow the good example set by this gentleman. The trees of the different streets grow to a sumcient Del gut so that it is not neces sary to take advantage of weeds for shade. A party of about ten couples has made arrangements seyeral times and has made arrangements to make arrange ments to see what arrangements could be made for a picnic. It was concluded, after severeal postponements to bold it yesterday at the fair grounds, but it seems the dumber must be an unlucky one or such a thing Lt not to be. The rain yesterday turned their Anticipations to disappointment, and the crowd at present i quite blue. Since disappoint ment has been A companion for so many terms, why not congregate at the resi dence of one of the metnbera and' have a picnic anyway. It would be a picnic for us to see them have a picnic, and if a picnic they must Lave, why not haye a picnic in this way. If we can help them out by changing the wbeather aign&ls, we will do so. Mr. Lee Sharp, a young gentleman who has for a number of years been era ployed as a machinist at the B. & JL shops here, has severed his connection with that company within the last few days, with the intention, as we learn, of starting in business for himself. He has not yet selected a suitable location for his shop, but as soon as he does he in tends to open a machine frhop and pre pare himself to do all kinds ol work in that line. As he is a first-class machanic, a good business man, steady, sober and industrious, nothing but success can we bespeak for him. He has worked steady for a number of years, been economical enough to have an eye open to future prospects, and now since it is his determ ination to launch out in the business world, he certainly deserves the encour- agemeni ana support oi an. e give hini credit for remaining at home and trying to build up the city by bringing into it an additional industry. This gen tleman has many friends in the city, and as he is willing to work, he certainly should make his mark and come out with a share of the yellow metal which so many are striving to obtain. lie will be prepared to do all kinds of work in that line, and all citizens who have that kind Our Dave came marching homo to day. There were four stock trains and one meat train past through the city this morning bound for Chicago. Mr. John Miller and Miss Ilellena I loss, both of this county, were united in marrige this morning by Judge Russell. Messrs. Morris O'llourk and George Oliver were in Council Bluffs making ar rangements for the game which is to be played here on the 4th of July between the Council Bluffs team and the Platts mouth club. Can anyone account for the strange change of expression in the faces of the democrats since their return from Omaha? It must haye been something like going to attend a wedding and before their re turn, attended a funeral. Mr. Phil. Harrison, of this city, claims relationship to the coming president, Mr. Men. Harrison, ot Indiana, bince Lis re lative has come to the front in such grand style, it is expected Phil., will drop the reins which be now manipulates and ap ply for a government sit. Prominent "Bob," who invariably lights on a stationary crowd, and gener ally lends enthusiasm to a certain extent by ringing in topics for the principal speakers, took a drop to himself last night He" was taking his leave from n certain hardware store by way of the back door. We don't suppose he was in any hurryjto get home, as he seldom ever is, but for some reason we do not know, he made a rapid pace for the sidewalk, and in his hurry missed hisjttep, dropped between two sidewalks which just alJow ed enough space for his body to occupy and was obliged to remain there until as sistance was given him to extricate him self. aa Tickets have been issued by the Young Men's Republican Club and put in the hands of a committee for sale, preparations are being made for the ban quet which give us every expectation for one of the grandest events in the history of Plattsmouth. The date U set for July tSfth, at the Waterman opera house. Prominent speakers of tl.c state will be present and participate in the festiyitics, among them will be John M. Thurston, who will have in store for his audience many glittering points from the late con vention. No doubt t;e opera house will be crowded to its utmost capacity and with the encouragement that republicans now have since the nomination of Har rison and Morton, a rousing event will surely be the result. Let all right-thinking people come forward shew that they are on the right side and on the road to victory, and push forth every effort to make the coming banquet as we predict, a grand success. Jedd Vance, the boy who u.d J:js skull so badly fractured some time ago, does not require constant attention now and is able to take good care of himself part of the time. He has gained great courage and worked his jray along ad mirably until the road to recovery is broad and easy to travel. Several who hard dotted down their signatures on a subscriptiou p&pcr as) a representation of a donation, are now adverse to fcy;g it. Some are under the impression that the boy's step-father, Mr. Dickson, has con siderable property and pioney in the bank, but such, we learn from good authority, is not the case. Even if such a story is true", they are only helping the poor un fortunate boy who will be left to himself in a short time and have no one to look to for ssppprt. A boy in his condition, with a hole almost three inches square in the top of his head with no protection but a thin portion of flesh to keep the brain from exposure, will be in an un comfortable condition to do any kind of work and isay need considerable assis tance. A donation of cents or so in as charitable way can never be begruaged surely. We are pleased to learn that so man haye contributed willingly and cheerfully, ana asy jeinec so many have exhibited as kind a spirit, d no lp,t any kickers come into prominence and cast a sbadaw over tho good which already looms up. "TIPPECANOE AND PROTECTION TOO." Harrison and Morton Our Administration- The Next Last Republican Ratification Night a Crand Success- Tho Young Men's Republican Club of Plattsmouth had called a ratification meeting of the republican nominees for president and vice president for last evening, t be held in Rock wood hall, and although the weather was most un propitious and a heavy rain had fallen after 0 o'clock, the meeting was A UBAND SUCCESS. At 8 o'clock the B. & M. band opened up the ball with their sixteen pieces in front of Rockwood hall, playing several popular pieces in their best style, as they always do. Almost immediately the heavy boom of artillery resounded throughout the fcity. The cannon being controlled and .handled by the eyer effi cient cannoneers, Harvey Sage and Chas. Black, forty rounds being fired, and amidst music and cannonading the audi ence assembled in Rockwcd J) all. The hall was well filled with enthiuias. tic republicans at 8:30 o'clock p. m. and tho meeting was called to order by John A. Davies, president of the Young Men's Republican Club, wLs, jn a short, bril liant, twenty-minute speech su-pIed the entire audience. He covered the ground of Protection for hot.ic industries in a remarkable manner, and we pedjc right here that he will, during this campaign, be heard from not only l Oass, but the state at large. He closed his remarks with the heading to this article, Tippe canoe and Protection too, Harrison and Morton our next president and vice presi dent of ike J7mted States. All through his speech he was met wiifc applause and the close was enthusiastically applauded. Hon. R. B. Windham was called on and responded in his usual vein. His remarks were woll received and inter spersed with applause. As one of the committee on speaker,? reported to the audience that it was im possible to get speakers from abroad from the fact that everybody was ratifying at home. The apology was unnecessary, as our home talent in the republican par ty is of the btsj nud was well received last night by an entDt2.ti audience. Judge Samuel M. Chapman 7.'hs the 1 next speaker called upon. His remarks were directed especially to the solid south, an houest vote and a fair count. He called attention to the fact that the names of Harrison and Morton were two of the most illustrious names in the United States; that tjhe name of Morton, the great war governor of fndjana, and Gen. Ben. Harrison, the soldier, the cjti aen and statesman from the same state, would act as a statesman in the cominjr campaign and that he predicted that In diana would be safe for the ticket. Ap plause greeted the speaker and at the close of his remarks S. P. -vanatta was next called and responded in a warm, hearty manner.his remarks being received with great favor. Ha touched up the democrats all along the ljnc, and hl3 re mark that the republicans and the people should vote for brains as against averdu- poise and the result would be that we would have a president who could take off his shifj; 'itbont unbuttoning his col- THE FOURTH OF JULY I Plattsmouth Will Celebrate That Day in a Grand Way.

Democratic Meeting. pLATTSMOUTii,Neb.,June 25. Special The dpRjoprats are unusually jubilant this evening over luc nomination of Har rrison at Chicago, while our republican friends feel very much disappointed and sore. Very few express themselves. While this gives a sure grip on a contin o'js four years of democratic reign and rood eoyei-nnient, the democrats intend to knock about 'Tour figures ofU tho here tofore republican majority" iri' the state. The Young Men's Democratic club met this Cpepiijg and elected the follow ing to represent them at phe convention ftf plubs tomorrow: Hon. P. J3. White, Dr. J$. U SIgglns, T. P. Clifford, Dr. T. P.

They are beginning to wake - up to the fact that they haye got the greatest battle on their hands, they have ever had since the election of 18G0.
