An Iowa Farmer Provokes a Quarrel
and Is Stabbed.
FUSION IN CASS IS NOW CERTAIN
Ths Democratic and Populist County Cen
tral Committees Meet at Union and
Agree on m Fnalon Ticket
Button's Weak Excuse.
Meagre particulars come from the
Iowa bottoms just across the river of a
cutting affair which happened last
nigtit. Ben Lincoln, a farmer who
lives three miles north-east of the
bri'ige, provoked a quarrel with a
young farm hand and hit the fellow
with a club. The youth re
sponded by pulling, out a pocket
knife and plunged it into Lincoln's
abdomen, making a deep gash eome
Ave or six inches long. Lincoln bled
prof use ly, but a doctor was summoned
and his wound was attended to. It
is not known whether Lincoln's injury
will have a serious result.
Fusion Now m Certainty.
A meeting of the democratic and
populist county central committees
was had at Union yesterday, and an
agreement was perfected between the
two committees which insures the
election of the entire anti-republican
ticket in Cass county in the coming
campaign.
At the democratic meeting the
declination of Louis Foltz, democratic
nominee on the legislative ticket, was
read and accepted, and the name of
David McCaig, one of the populist
nominees, was ordered put on the
ticket in Mr. Foltz's place. The name
of B. F. Allen, populist nominee for
state senator, was also ordered placed
on the democratic ticket. A motion
that the democracy of Cass county be
requested to vote for Geo. Leidigh,the
democrat whom the populists nomi
nated for float representative on Tues
day last, was carried. Chas. Grimes
banded in his resignation as chairman
of the county central committee, and
M. Archer was elected in his place.
At the meeting of the populist cen
tral committee the resignation of Dr.
Madding, one of the populist nominees
for representative, was accepted, and
the name of II. G. Livingston, demo
cratic nominee, was inserted. The
candidacy of Mr. Leidigh was also en
dorsed.
- The joint action of the two commit
tees makes the fusion ticket read as
follows:
State senator B. F. Allen.
Representatives II. G. Livingston
and Da id McCaig.
Float representative George W.
Leidigh.
It makes a combination which is cer
tain of election, and the democrats
and populists of Cass county are to
be congratulated on their "getting
together" on such an amicable basis.
Dntton'a Silly Defense.
As v?as expected, Polk's News
(doubtless with promises of county
printing in view) rushes to the defense
of County Commissioner Dutton in re
gard to the shameful and partisan ac
tion of that gentleman in refusing the
UBe of the district court' room for the
Holcomb meeting on Tuesday night.
The News makes the defense for Mr.
Dutton that a rule was passed two
years ago by a democratic county
board forbidding the use of the court
room for political meetings. Grant
that such a rule was passed, although
it is ten to one that the plea has its
origin entirely within Mr. Dutton's
imagination, what does such a defense
argue ? The enactment of that order
two years ago can in no wise excuse
the present board. If a former county
board makes an unjust ruling, are

the Cash Clothier,
those who follow bound to carry the
order into effect ? Most certainly not.
The proper thing for any fair-minded
man. upon becoming an officer of the
people, is to correct his predecessor's
mistakes. He should seek to serve the
people and not make the wishes of the
people subservent to his own. As a
fact, there is no good excuse Mr. Dut
ton's course. lie is guilty of mean
partisanship and the voters of this
commissioner's district, haing al
ready taken his measure, will proceed
to snow him under in next month's
election good and deep.
Parties who profess to know say that
out of the last twenty-four railroad
damage suits tried before the supreme
court of the state, all but one were
decided in favor of the railroads-
Where is the honest lepublican who
now dares dispute that the railroads
knew what they were doing when they
dictated the nomination and secured
the election of Judges Norval, Post
and Harrison. Such a record as pos
sessed by the present supreme court is
a disgrace to the fair name of Ne
braska. Shame on a party which will
allow itself to be ruled by such a cor
rupt and rotten gang.
The announcement that the Missouri
Pacific railway would run a special
train from this city to the Elmwood
fair on Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday of this week, appears to have
been an error. Col. Stoutenborougb,
the local M. P. agent, inquired of
headquarters and was informed that
no such arrangement had been made.
This precludes any possibility of Platts-
mouth people attending the Elmwood
fair, as the regular trains are run in
such a manner that the people from
here would be forced to lose almost
two days in order to spend one day at
the fair.
A district court item in the Lincoln
News reads: "In the case of the Spra
gue Electric Motor company against
S. D. Mercer, tried last term, the court
found that there was a case involving
the same issues before the Cass county
district court, and therefore dismissed
the case. The plaintiff is a creditor
of the Plattsmouth electric street rail
way company for $8000, which claim
has never been satisfied. Its suit
against Mercer,who owned 55 per cent,
of the road, was to recover his unpaid
subscription to the capital stock.
We are pleased to announce that F.
G. Fricke & Co., our enterprising
druggists have secured the agency for
the Japanese Pile Cure; a most
wonderful discovery for the cure of
piles of every kind, which they will

the money if it does not cure. It is
said to be a specific for that terrible
and dangeroas disease. Get a free
sample and try it.
The action of the democratic state
convention shows that a little good
sense has at last taken possession of
the leaders. That a union of all par
ties interested in the welfare of the
state should be made, that the crew
who have wrecked the credit of the
state should be forced to surrender
their important trusts to men of hon
esty and patriotism. Weeping Water

The Nebraska City News has found
it necessary to keep standing for the
past few days words expressive of the
great satisfaction and peace of mind
its editors are enjoying over its forty
years existence. This might be some
more of somebody's business, but if
the present News is a fair specimen of
the result of forty years experience in
the business, it is evident that the
antiquarians down the way have
missed their calling. Nebraska City

There is more catarrh id t his section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last tew
years was supposed to be incurable,
r'or a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and pres
cribed local remedies, and by con
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. It is taken internally in doses
from 10 dropti to a teaspoonful. It acts
directly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for anv case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars and testi
monials. Address.
