With the tariff question settled and the primaries off our hands there is n othing to do now but to get out and hustle for the election of the whole Republican ticket. A long, strong pull all together, and Cass county will have taken a long stride toward placing only Republicans on guard in the court house. And Re publicans are noted for their safe, sane and economical administrations. Now that the primaries are over and a ticket has been nominated there is just one thing for Republicans to do roll up their sleeves and elect it from top to bottom. Cass county is normally Republican, every man nominated is eminently qualified to fill the position to which he aHpires, there are no petty controversies to divide the vote, and a clean sweep of the platter will give de mocracy a jolt not soon to be forgot ten. The unanimity of purpose with which the business men of Plattsmouth have taken hold of the carnival project and the results already attained-results which assure the largest gathering of people in this city in the history of the county is an object lesson of what may be accomplished in the future along other lines. It is trite but true that "in union there is strength," and if we will come to realize this to the utmost a there will be nothing desired which we may not accomplish. Do not allow the sophistry of the democratic press to influence you to cratch your ticket when you go to the polls this fall. The virtue of the pri law lies in the fact that the nominat ing power is taken from the few and placed in the hands of the general elec torate.and this certainly eliminates any reasons, except those of a purely per sonal nature, for a "scratch" ballot. On the other hand, even under the op eration of the primary law, experience has demonttrated the imperative need of party organization, and this is best attained by giving the nominees of your party your undivided fealty. Through the operation of the primary you have freely and without duress selected men to be your party's stand-1 are bearers now follow up by voting the same way. When a nominee re ceives nis party s vote ne nas no sore Bpots even though he may be defeated and when the next election rolls around he will pull off his coat and work with much better grace. Reports from Elmwood's CJiautau qua are very flattering. The, talent secured was of a high order, and the attendance has been proving satisfac tory. This is indeed good news. Chau tauquas have come to be a potent force in the educational propaganda of the PREMIUM LIST MERCHANTS CARNIVAL PLATTSMOUTH. NEB.

With the development of the idea and the yearly increase in the or ganization of societies, and the con sequent demand for more and a higher order of talent, the time has arrived arrived when the best speakers and thinkers of the age are brought to our very doors. And the results are ap parent everywhere. Apparent in a higher conception of man's duty to his fellow man; apparent in the determin ation to stamp out graft in high places; apparent in the gradual disappearance of religious intolerance; apparent in higher political ideals. The sunlight of Truth is rapidly dissipating the dark ness of Error, and the Chautauqua societies of the land are performing their share in the metamorphosis. Just Received A Barrel ot Fine Pickles John II. Busche, in conversation with a representative of this paper last evening, said that the primary had left no sore spots on mm, ana that tie was i for the whole Republican ticket and would support Sheriff Quinton loyally, j E. E. Hilton also states that Mr. Daft j is his candidate for 'register of deeds, and that regardless of any personal dis appointment he is still a Republican in all that the word implies. This is the proper spirit, gentlemen, and Btamps you as timber which the Republican party could well use in any position of trust. The News-Herald does not believe in knocking on any legitimate enter prise, but occasionally a town is invad ed by some unknown vendor of some lines of merchandise pretending to give great bargains. He will only spend three or four days catching "suckers." Do you belong to the "sucker" class? If you patronize such vendors, then you are a sucker and deserve to be 'skinned," and there is no doubt that you will be "skinned," and "skinned" right. A fool and his monay soon parts.

U. speaker and Mayor Dahlman of Omaha, at the Bellevue chautauqua which was chcduled for the 31st inst. has been called off. Mrs. Richards has returned to the east, giving as an excuse for the cancelled date that she is a busy woman and as she so thoroughly van quished his cowboy highness at the Al bion debate she feels it were a waste of time to give him any more attention. Some of the candidates are protest- a j ing that the primary election is more V xpensive than a regular campaign. f Get In On This Sale, It will -AA z y f y y y y I f y y y y y y y y y y y y y y f y y y y y y y y y y y y y y IX !A 'A j Not Last Long Owine to the heavy shortage in the cotton crop there has been quite an advance in the price of all cotton fabrics.
