Louisville has re-elected her pres ent corps of teachers and raised the salary of the principal $5 per month. It has been aptly said that the dif ference between the democratic and the republican party is, that the for mer promises amd the latter perform Governor Poynter has an advan tage over any other citizen of the state. He says that if he is impris oned for contempt of court he will par don himself. The social democrats are divided on the question of the "referendum," on account of which Harriman, their can didate for vice president, may pu'l off the ticket. Mr. Debs will have to look for another running mate. Admiral, and Mr. Dewey were given a grand reception in Kooxville, Tenn., yesterday. Today they will visit Low's Ferry, the birthplace of Admiral Farraeut. under whom the admiral served during the civil war. The Southern democracy disfran chises the negro and taxes them with out giving them representation and yet holds up its hands in holy horror because they fear the republicans are going to oppress the natives of Porto Rico and the Philippines. Dr. B. F. Lano evidently intends to make ' Governor Poynter all the trouble he can. Since handing the governor his resignation he has changed his mind and desires to hold the fort. He will doubtless have e difficult task before him, as the execu tlve is determined to get him out. If he has to call out the state militia. It is reported that Senator Butler will resign his position as chairman of the national populist committee and recommend J. H. Edmisten of this state for the place. Mr. Edmisten failed to get votes enough at the Sioux Falls convention to elect him to the coveted position and why his success ful rival should "be so generous ali at once is not apparent. Stockmen in the western part of the state held a convention recently and took occasion to roast Governor Poynter for pardoning so many cattle thieves. . Citizens of Cass county feel that to pardon the cold-blooded mur derer of one of its best citizens is so much ' worse than pardoning a thief that the cattle men have comparatively little of which to complain. s When you find a republican that is not for the re-election of Presiden McKinley, please let us know. iSot withstanding the enormous amount of abuse heaped upon him by the fusion politicians, he has preserved a digni fled silence, successfully carried on th war and at the same time carefully guarded the industrial and commercial interests of the country. He deserves the strongest kind of an indorsement The topic of conversation today has been the march which Senator Clark of Montana took on his enemies by re signing his position in the United States senate just as he was about to be formally ousted. Said resignation was handed to Montana's acting gover nor (Spriggs) in the absence of Gover nor Smith of that state. Spriggs at once appointed Mr. Clark to succeed himself and it is thought bo will be able to hold his seat until the legisla ture again assembles. Superintendent B. F. Lano of the Institute for the Feeble-minded at Beatrice continues to embarrass Gov ernor Poynter by refusing to turn things over to Dr. Doaring. The gov ernor probably did such a good job of whitewashing that the doctor con cluded he was a fairly good fellow after all, and to turn him out in' the cold would be very ungrateful, if not alto gether unjust A temporary injunc tion against Governor Poynter and Dr. Dearing has been granted.- WHEN William J. Bryan's train the other day stopped at Gallup, N. M., - he stepped out on the back platform ' and made one of his characteristic speeches, says the New York Tribune, u the people applauded, and when the '.noise subsided the mayor of the town climbed up to the speaker and pre sented to him a large Navajo blanket neatly done up in a parcel, saying that it was the work of an Indian squaw of the ciiy who admired Mr. Bryan. The train drew out and Mr. Bryan nepoBitea nis gut upon a seat, going into a smoking room. On returning he spread out his present for a better view, ana as be aid so a piece of paper pinned on the inside came in view. This was what he read: "My Dear Mr. Bryan: Under the republican administration the wool in this blan ' ket sells for 22 cents a pound. Under the democratic administration it sold for 6 cents. Please leu mat 10 your constituents. THE argument used to keep many fusionists in line for Bryan is that since the senate will be republican for sev eral jpars yet "he can do no particular harm;" that sound money legislation having been enacted, there is no danger of haviDg a debased currency so long as we have a republican sen ate. We should figure on the amount of good a president can do rather than on the amount of barm he cannot do. The Fremont Tribune doesn't m da it far in the following: "If the demo crats had the least idea that McKinley would take any action to help the Boers, they would be urging him to keep his hands off. In other words, there is no sincerity in the cry that they are making. They are merely triving for a little sorely-needed cam paign thunder." George W. Berge of Lincoln h:ts been unanimously indorsed by the fu sionists of Lancaster county for cou- gress. Mr. iierge Is going to give our townsman, Matthew Gering, a tussle for the nomination. E. J. Durkett, however, can easily walk off with either one of them. KANSAS republicans have renomi nated W. E. Stanley for governor, lhe convention passed resolution? indors- ng, unqualifiedly, Proeident McKinley and hfs administration. Everything points to another republican victory in Kansas next fall. Editor Dunroy no doubt noticed on his return today tho marked im provement in the Journal, as edited by its business manager on tho Shel don plan during his absence. Governor Poynter seems to think he can get rid of Dr. Lang without much trouble. The wily little doctor is a nuisance to the governor. Admiral Dewey and wife are again in Washington. It begins to look as though the admiral' would have to run independent, if at all. Senator Butler has denied the report that he had resigned as chair man of the populist national commit tee. Edward Rosewater has been hon ored by being elected one of the direc tors of the Associated Press associa tion. Carter Harrison says he will not accept the democratic nomination for governor. Wise man. ' AN EXCHANGE says it is a paradox to think of asking country folks to vote for Towne. INFORMATION AND OPINION. An odd and somewhat ghastly event of late was the seizure of a cemetery in Peansyvania by the sheriff under foreclosure proceedings. In this case the mortgage was literally a death grip. Governor Robert B. Smith of Mon tana has, like Senator Clark, made fortune in mining. He is popular in the mining district), the men re garding him almost as one of them selves, but respecting him none the less. If the fusionifets hope to stand any chance whatever of electing a governor they will have to make arrangements early in the campaign to head their ticket with some man besides Poynter Poynter is altogether too small to run against Dietrich. Judge Westover is big enough to take care of the H-st ings man, but have the fusionists got the nerve to cut loose from tho little 2x4 clique at the state house to com mit such a fortunate, blunder as to nominate a big, clean and able man like Westover? We hope so. Kear ney Democrat. An instructive insight into the man ner in which the British are treating the Dutch in Cape Colony is given by a correspondent of the Chicago llec ord: Writing from Capetown, he says: "A discussion is proceeding in the colonial press as to what should be done with the Dutch colonists who have joined the republicans. O.ie sug gestion is that they should be inden tured that is to say, enslaved to their British fellow-farmers. Other suggestions are that they should be transported as slave laborers to Au9 tralasia and Canada and that they should be branded with a hot iron Confiscation of their farms is in all cases assumed as a matter of courso though this would plunge into beg gary their innocent wives and families Dutch colonists are being thrown into jail by dozens and their cattle declared confiscated and sold, although such confiscation is in absolute defianoe of the colonial law. Worst of all, it has been assigned to the chairman and sec rotary of the South African league to go-about the border and arrest Dutch men. These two men, one of whom contested a border constituency at tt last election as a Khodesite and was beaten, have taken service with the imperial government for the time be tng, put oi courso the farmers view them not as General Brabant and Cap tain Crewe, the imperial officers, but as Brabant and Crewe, the chairman and secretary of the political associa tion which Dutch South Africa believes to have caused the war. Thus w give to the proceedings the worst as pect of a civil war. During the last few weeks Dutch churches to the num ber of over half a dozen have been forced by drunken mobs and the bell rung in honor of the relief of Lady smith and Kimberley. At Spearman camp, in Natal, a church, of which the pastor is the nephew and name same of the saintly Andrew Murray, has been used as a stable, the com munion service stolen and the big bible defaced with the words 'God cu -be the Dutch.'" A little incident at the banquet of the homeopathic physicians night be fore lst gave th6 friends of C H. Dietrich a great deal of satisfaction. Abjut seventy-five doctors were in at tendance, representing all political parties as well as all portions of the state. During the period of good feel ing that marked the speechmaking. Dr. A. It. Van Sickle of Hastings took occasion to say a good word for hi9 friend and neighbor, C. II. Dietrich, the next governor of Nebraska, In stantly the entire company broke out into heartfelt applause, which was re peated when Dr. W. 11. Hancliett of Omaha seconded everything that his colleague had said about the good ualities of the republican candidate. The reception given to Mr. Dietrich's ame convinced his Menus that his personal popularity has not been over estimated. State Journal. According to a Paris correspondent of the New ork Herald, Com missioner Peck hesitated to offer champagne to his guests at the open ing of the United Slates pavilion at the exposition, "as ho was afraid that would not bo approved in New York." S WAXTKI) FOK PKlMUltY. District Judge Jnurn Order the Arrest of Henty W. Dtwcy. The trial of a very interesting di- vorse case has jest been tlmsheu in Judge Jessen's court at Nebraska Cityi It is entitled Henry W. Dew?y vs. Mr?. Belle Dewey, his wife. The following in regard to the case is tak en from the Nebraska Citv News: 'The case had been tried to the court and Judge Jessen in rendering his decision last evening spoke very plainly and snid just what he thought, regardless of how hard it hit those who were interested in the trial of the case, lie said tnat trio plaintiff ha a boen guilty of most flagrant perjury and would recommend that the county attorney file a complaint against him at once. He said that thoro had been more perjury committed there in a shorter period than ho had heard in some time. "The Judge gave the wife a separa tion as prayed for in her petition aad then he gave her $1,000 in alimony and $200 attorney fees. This is the bitterest contested divorse suit that has boen tried in the district court in this county in jears. The litigants are not residents of this city, save fo: the past six months, lhe husband is a baker and has been working lor Thee. Wobering, while the wife has been living at Plattsmouth and Oma ha. l he mother oi the young man no"v residt.3 at Plattsmouth, having movgd there last July or August from Vj.CilWOOU, i. . lUQ UJHO UUU WUIUUU had been married, according to the testimony, for four or five years before the husband told his mother, who, it seems, was bitterly opposed to his marriage and, from her evidence, was the real cuseof the son wanting to leave the wife. All during the trial a bright little girl ran about the court room and seemed to make friends with all the people therein but the father and his parents. It seemed to keep away fjom them at all times. The man denied that it was his child, while the wife offered t prove by Oi tr slack oi amdavits that he was present at its birth and gave the child its name and paid alt of the expense incident lo her illness. To every one who heard the evidence in tho case the sympathy was with tho wife, and they heartily endorsed every word that Judge Jessen uttered in his ar raignment of the plaintiff for the way he had perjured himself and seeming ly caused others to do the same in his behalf. "County Attorney W. W. Wilson last evening issued a warrant for tho arrest of tho plaintiff, but when tho sheriff wont lo look for his man it was found that he had tlown. He evident ly took the cue given in the court s lecture and left for greener fields, for at 0 o'clock last evening ho could not be found. Just how he got out of the city no one seems to know."

The threatened clash between his authori ty and that of the judiciary is'drifting off into the mistry future, and bids fair never to develop. This morning the governor talked over the telephone with Judge Stull, who is at Beatrice holding court. The judge assured the governor that he knew nothing of Dr. Lang's resigna tion until he read a copy of it in the News. He had no idea that such a document was in existence when ho is sued his temporary injunction. J "bena your representatives down," he said, "and I will give them an im mediate hearing, i assure you my court will not be made a tool for trickery." Dr. Dearing, the new appointee, Dave McEntee, recorder in the gover nor's office, and Clerk Stewart, from the Lincoln asylum for tho insane, left for the scene of trouble this morning. They will go before Judge Stull and ask that the injunction bo dissolved, and from tho intimations given Gov ernor Poynter, it is quite "probable that their prayer will be granted. By his own resignation, accepted by the governor, Dr. Lang became a pri vate citizon yesterday, May 15. He is holdiug the superintendence- without oven color of authority, says tho gov ernor, and for that reason ho thinks Judge Stuil will bold that Lang has absolutely no right to intorfero with Dr. Dearing in his exercise of duty in accordance with his appointment. Reports from Beatrice indicates that the little doctor is growing desperate in his effort to hang onto the position he has enjoyed for something over a year. McEntee and Stewart went down there yestorday. Immediately on their arrival they called on Dr. Lang. They didn't take the trouble to send up their cards in advance. Their reception was somewhat Ice landic, for tho doctor telephoned for tho sheriff who responded immediate ly. He landed on the two gentlemen from Liincoln with all tho I rce of a representntivo of the court, and com manded them to refrain from interfer ing in any manner with Dr. Lang. McEntee and Stewart heeded the com mand and returned to Lincoln on an evening train. Ibey were sent hack this morning by the governor. If Dr. Djering sue ceeds in getting into office McEntee and Steward will check over tho ac counts left by Dr. Lang. Conditions about tho homo are de plorable. Nothing has been done by Dr. Lang towards ploughing and planting the ground, and it lies there idle and overgrown with weed-1.
