Oil and water wont mix. National, questions will not be nettled in this county this fall. Ne braska City News (Jem.) The eanio up this way. The effort to elect constables and road super visors by testing their views on white metal :s too ridiculous. The county offiecrs to bo elected will succeed themselves and round out a full second term, as'has been tho custom of thg county for forty years. And now since silver continues to decline, Mexico is talking of adopting the gold standard. It certainly lonUfc as if Br other Rryan's job of driver agi tator musi soon be changed to some thing else morn profitable and more productive of results aimed at. Ilis lK)licy gets flatter every day and soon the Btlver question it will be seen, has settled itself. Judging from what we hear from all over tho county the entire republi can county ticket will bo renominated by acclamation. This is as it should be. Ctss county never had a better set of county officers than the present incumbents, and they should bo given another term. We hear of no kick ing against their administration of af fairs In their respective offices. Elm wood Leader-Echo. The idea that far"niers are a little crude when it comes to politics, wae dispelled Monday at Weeping Water, The farmer's party outrigured and outclased the democratic medicine mixers at every turn and moulded 8 ticket to their own likiner, as Mr Bryan would say without tho consent of any other nation on earth. It was a clean caso of the populists farming the democrats in great form, and the latter are not pleased with the re sult. The demand for feeding- stock thuroghout the west was never so groat as at the prcacrt time. Western farmers have come to understand that it does not pay to sell the grain and that the way to get their returns is to fatten stock with it. Not only is this matter better understood than it used to be, but the facilities of the farmers for this kind of business are better. If he has noi got the stock to feed, he can now hire the money to by them with. Ex. Canovas. the prime minister of Spain, was assassinated yesterday by an anarchist. The effect of tho mur der on Spanish affairs can not be fore told. Somo authorities think the monarchy will be ousted and that Cuba -will be settled with on her own terms, but this is not likely.-. Spain has clung to monarch ial institutions for centuries, and all the wealth"" of the country is in the hands of the nobility. A disruption of presont conditions is not likely to occur. The sheriff's office was uevor better managed tnan during the present term of Sheriff Holloway. One of the commissioners informed the writer that in checking up the sheriff's books they were never before found in such perfect system with everything in good shape. It required but a few hours work, whereas, at other times, it had taken several days. It must be remembered i 11 comparison too, that Cass county has had several sheriffs that were an honor to the county. Wk are shipping wheat this year to Rio Janeiro, under the very noso ol tno Argentine llepuDllc, one ol our chief competitors in the grain busi ness.. It is exactly as the 'sound money advocates claimed in the little debate last fall. Wheat has gone down for a sories of years bocause vast new fields have been opened in Russia, in Argentina and elsewhere. A short crop in some of thee fields lessens the competition of tho sellers of wheat and the price goes up like a rocket. Silver has no more to do with it than the attitude of tho gentleman in the moon. State Journal. Uncle Grokok Shbadku, meekly wearing the endorsement of John Ley da's convention, the democratic convention and a nomination from the populist convention for treasurer, was in town today cultivating the people. George is a good citizen, but he will fall short a few votes in a contest with so thorough an accountant and 6) careful and obliging an ollicer us Treasurer Eikenbary. "Jake," as he is familiarly called, defeated one of the best known and most popular can didates two years- ago the democrats ever ran for an office in this county, and he is much stronger now with the experience of a successful term of office behind him.- His nomination is conceded by acclamation, and bis election by a decisive majority is cer tain to follow. TnE new tariff law makes the ward- robe of all -Americans returning to this country, above 100 in value, duti able. The first shif 10 arrive at New York after tbe tew law took effect was tbe MajJtic with three hundred paBsewsrers. many of tbom being Cfidi,'bJ. for euros ranging from 25 up to 2-0. It is true it seems a trille nb eurd for a government 10 tax the wardrobe of its own subjcctn,but when it i considered that these subjects have thought so Htlle of tho institu tions ol thoir ovvu country, as to rob them of a trade which by rights be longed to them they aro deserving of very little sympathy. If they rallv saved anv money it would be different, but quality considered they1 do not. There is not so much differ- ence in the material as in me muo up. In this particular the contrast is marked, and drest-y Americans never attempt a second order of English made gonds. Tho great bulK of tho people of this country will certainly endorse this phase of tho new law. Ex. Seventy-five millions of dollars will bo leceived by the farmers of the United States during this year for wheat in excess of the amount paid to them last year. This great re-en forcement of tho purchasing power of one class of the industrial community is of itself sumcint to stimulate cer tain trailos. Accordingly a very largely increased demand for farm im plement ol all kinds is oDservaiie,:mu the country slot os are buying all man ner of goods more largely from the wholesalers than in the early autumn cf any jear since But other in dications of prosperity a-c noi want ing. We are selling more largely of machinery and railway equipments to Russia and Japan than ever beforo, and certain forms of American manu factures of steel and iron are invading England itself. Citton and woolen manufactures do not yet exhibit any remarkablo renewal of activity, nor. perhaps, can any strong demand for labor bo expected in these great branches Ol industry until tho vast stocks of imports be exhausted or greatly depleted. But woolen and cotton manufacturers aro beginning to overhaul their establishments in ar. ticipation ol better times a few months hence. INFORMATION AND OI INIOM- During tho month of July there wa received at the South Omaha stock yards from Nebraska SH,03 cattle. 13o.58.- hotrs and 8.800 sheep. This is an increaso of o,f!)3 sheep, 8,308 cattle, and 38,200 hogs, over tho same month in 1896. Ex. This cool spell will be a pleasant boon to tho sick and afflicted, who buf fered so much during the extremo hot weather. They sbouldjnake the most of it, for it will be extremely hot acain in a few days, at least that is what Hicks, the weather prophet says. Tbe board of public lands and build ings let the contract for building the new wing of the Hastings asylum to Eloster & McCaslin, of Lincoln, whose bid was $21,020. The contract for erecting a stand pipe and for steam heating, plumbing and wiring the new wing was let to W. L Pomerene, of Lincoin, at $7,750. This will leave tho bor.rd within the appropriation by about $1,"U0, which may be used for extra expenditures which aro likely to be necessary beforo tho building is completed. Ex. During tho storm last week, light ning entered tho 15. & M. depot at Columbus and set fire to tho operator's dcsK and one 6ide of the building-. It being nearly train time, there were several railroad men at the depot,and their combined efforts subdued the blaze. Mr. A. L.

A B. & M. train crew hd a regular fight with a tramp near Greenwood Sunday evening. There were thirty of the hobos who started out to steal a ride on the train a freight and the crew put them all off without difficulty except one who stood his ground and proposed figh,t. Whon one of the train crew got through with him he had tho appearance of a defeated pug ilist just after an encounter. The brakeman was laid up with a broken hand. Ashland Gazette. . W. L.

While repairing tho d im of the Jewel Roller will last week, wor kmen threw up several articles that had probably boen consigned to the bed of Salt creek by thieves to avoid discov ery.

Aluminum is fast becoming a staple article of moi ch. ndise. The Ameri can company which controls the patents for extracting tho metal by the electrical process has just signed contracts for the shipment of 1 000 tons to England.

Nehawka Register. The hot dry weather which was be ginning- to cause uneasiness m the minds of the farmers and others, was checked Tut-sd.y afternoon by a gO( ct soaking rain.

Ashland Gazette. Mrs. S. J. Kendall, living three miles west of Greenwood at the old sito of tho Kendall & Teft mill which wa burned down one ye:ir ago, has been worrying over the loss tf prop erty, and the mental strain on her mind, in her enfeebled condition, caused her mind to give way last Sun day and she is now in a deranged and dangerous condition, rof.using to take medicine or nourishment.- Her solo wish is to die. Her condition is very deplorable and the family have the sympathy of tho neighbors in their t-ad affliction.

BUT IT BROUGHT ABOUTTHE DESIRED RESULT AT LAST.' m College Society Chapter Thai Wu In Bad Repute A Medal ThaBvContalned n inurintion-Poker and Bottled R - freshmenta. "It frequently happens," said a col -lego gradnate, "that different chapters of the same Greek letter fraternity, sit- uated at different colleges, develop dif ferent characteristics. All of these so cieties, I think, are organized to enoour age literary pursuits. I mean that's what the constitutions say. Aa a mat ter of fact, the literary element is rath er lost sight of in most cases in the jtress of having a jolly good time. Whon convention time comes round, however, the chapters that have main tained their literary quality come to the fore, and the others have to put up a bluff by sending as delegates men who have high standing as scholars or else taka a very back seat. "The chapter to which I belonged was located at a country college, and in some way or other it had acquired a reputation in the' fraternity of being es sentially uonliternry, and, in fact, rath er sporty in character. This was so much the case that in my junior year thero was a movement on foot to expel or suspend onr chapter from the frater nity. We weren't very strong in high stand men aud couldn't even scare up two to go as delegates to the conven tion. Another man and myself were finally selected for this function as the most unsophisticated looking members of the chapter. "As usnal in snch cases, a special train was made up to start from the westernmost chapter and to pick up as many of tho other delegations as could bo arranged 011 its way to the convention city. We were among the more remote chapters, and when we boarded the train thero was only one other delega tion on board, composed of three mem bers. Wo sighed when we saw big boxes of bottled beer in the freight car and reflected on the elaborate instructions we had received from our constituents. We were primed for the occasion. My companion, Forbes, had a classical vol ume in each side pocket of his coat and there were ink stains on his fingers. I had borrowed from a classmate a medal given for scholarship, and this I had rather ostentatiously hung on my watch chain. "We soon made the acquaintance of the other three delegates and joined them in their stateroom. Before long they proposed a game of poker, and one of them produced a pack of oards. Forbes said he didn't play, retired to a corner, pulled out a copy of Gladstone's 'Landmarks of Homeric. Study' and after gazing thoughtfully out of tbe window for a moment or two apparently became absorbed in it. I admired his conception of the part, but I couldn't bring myself to break up the game, and that's what it meant, for everybody knows there's no fnn in three handed poker. Besides, tboro.were only three delegates on the train to witness my fall. I said I didn't play, but had seen the game mid thought it looked inter esting. I was willing to learn. "When wc got started, there was a demand for a buck, and I unhitched the scholarship medal and dropped it into the pot as a good means of calling at tention to it. Everything went on swimmingly for awhile. I had outra geous luck and won pot after pot, so they were confirmed in the idea thatsI was a beginner. After awhile one of the other delegates got away with a jack pot, and while he was waiting for the cards to be dealt be picked up the medal and glanced carelessly at the obverse side. I hadn't examined it particularly, but I found out afterward that it bore this neat inscription: 'Garrett J. Gardner. Weymouth University, Clnss of '87. "The delegate started and looked at me with a glance that was first mysti fied and then suspicious. " 'I beg your pardon, Brother Gard ner,, he paid, with a touch of sarcasm. 'I thought you said your name was Hawkins, and we've all been calling you that right along. ' "There was a smothered guffaw from behind the 'Landmarks cf Homeric Study,' and I saw the jig was up. We made a clean breast of it, and Forbes sat into the game, making it five hand ed, which, of course, is the ideal game. We didn't lose any time sending for ward for a consignment of hat bottled beer, and tho floor was- strewn with dead Indians when tho train filled up with other delegates, and they crowded around to watch the game. "Our elaborate bluff hadn't worked, and the convention opened with our chapter in just as bad odor as before, but we had made stanch supporters of the three delegates aud some other kind ly spirits who had joined us on the train. They all went to work like bea vers, and when our caso was taken up in tho convention wo had a good work ing majority which sustained our char ter with a vhoop." New York Sun. Must Have Been Very Bad. In this day of slang and slipshod English it is quite refreshing to find one home in which onr mother tongue is ap preciated and sins against its purity duly resen ted. That there is at least one such was made evident in a quarrel which took place in a literary household between the two youngest inmates a quarrel, like most childish differences, soon over, but fierce while it lasted. When his wrath had reached its height, the small son of tbe house, quivering with auger, . sought for lan guage to denounce bis sister, who had been tbe aggressor. "You bad," he burst forth, stamping a stubby shoe; "you bad, you bad" Words failed him. Then with a flash of truly literary inspiration he conclud ed, " You bad grammar, you!"

Col, Sherman In a New Bole. Our Col. Sherman has shore in 'several roles, but his latest attempt as a good Samaritan proved a sort ul .hoodoo. It happened this way: The ' co'onel was "on his way to Nebraska ( City this morning and stopped at the M. P. depot to wait for the train. A l dago woman peddler was thero and dropped a dime through ho platform She wanted the agent to tear up the platform and get her dime, but he had something else to do. Tho gal lant co:oncU wearing a benevolent smile, secured a crowbar and offered his services. While the colonel was prying, the woman slooped down, and as he bore down suddenly on the bar a spiko Hew- out with great force, and, striking the woman in tho mouth, broke the pinto on her false teeth. Sho grabbed her dime nud then demanded $10 of the colonel for breaking her teeth. He was a little shy, and could not. accommodate her. Then she de manded and abused him scandalously bofore the crowd, and when ho went away to avoid hor, she followed him with as choice a lot of epithets as were ever heaid. The crowd laughed and the colonel heaved a sigh of re lief that could bo heard a block, when the train hove in sight, ar d ho could get away from his tormentor. The True Remedy. M.
