J. J. SULLIVAN THE MAN
Populists, Democrats' and Sllrer Be
publicans Make Elm Candilat
for Supreme Judgs.
AN EXCELLENT NOMINATION
The Contest Long and Intense But
No Bitter Feeling Be
malns. Tudgs Wheeler for Regent.
After deliberations lasting a (uli day
, end night tb populists, democrats and
nilver republican agreed upon tbe nom-
! inatlon of John J. Sullivan of Columbus,
'eb., a tbeir condidate for supreme
judge. Everyone Is well satisfied with
th result. Mr. Sullivan is undoubtedly
a strong a candidate as could bare
been named, Tbe populist fought long
and hard t? secure tbe nomination of
Judge Wtn. Neville. Tbe democrat
were just as energetic in tbeir demands
that W. II. Thompson should be tbe
candidate wlHle tbe silver republicans
voted repeatedly for Judge Cunningham
It. Scott. It woe tbe understanding in
each of the conventions tbat a
soon as any one man could secure tbe
nomination of two convention tbe third
would also nominate bim. None of tbe
three loading candidate could secure
a majority in two of tbe convention.
Tbe democrat withdrew from . H,
tbompNon and presented tbe name of
Judge John J. Sullivan. Tbeir vote for
him wo unanimous. They presented
the report of tbeir action to tbe silver
republicans and populinU. While the
matter of nominating Sullivan was being
favorably conwidered by the populists in
their convention in cane they could not
secure Neville's nomination, tbe news
wa brouitht to tbern that the silver re-
publican bad unanimously named Mr.
Sullivan a their choice for candidate.
Thin gave blm the necessary two con
vention, and the populist promptly
and unanimously made bim their nomi-
nne. lie will make an active campaign
V- And will win. la hi own county which
i Iho tbe borne of J adge Post, the re
publican nominee, Mr. Hullivan will have
a large piuramy auu win rvwuv iumij
renublicnn vote.
The populist named E. von For-
rell of Kearney a tbe populist nom
inee for regent. Under tbe term of dl
vision a reported by tbe conference
committee the silver republican get the
other candidate for regent. At the
hour of going to pre be bad not been
named.
Hint Convention.
There ban never been a state couveu
tion of tbe People's Independent party in
Nebraska where tbe Interest manifested
wo so great a at the convention held
in Lincoln Wednesday, Wednesday night
and Thursday. It wa the longest con
ventioa in theliistory of the party in
this state. Early on Tuesday delegates,
cundisates and their friend began to
arrive in the city. They were all an z
iou to be on tbe ground early in order
tbat they would not fail to hear the
great leader of tbe party in the United
State at tbe convention. Among the
speaker were General J. II. Weaver,
lion Cba. A. Towne, "Cyclone" Davis,
Hon. Jerry Simpson, Senator Allen,
Governor Holcomb, and Mr. Hryan.
There were many other not so well
known. There were two very large meet
ing Tuesday evening. One wa held at
the Lansing theatre and was addressed
by Mr. Towne and "Cyclone" Davis.
The other was held in the large Hohanan
and wa addressed by Jerry Simp-
no u and others. During Wednesday
fo'enoon little was dona except to or
.nil the county delegations, distrib
te the admission tickets and get ac
quainted. There were several confer
ence of minor importance, in the inter
est of particular candidate. From the
beginning It wa plain to b seen that
the almost universal sentiment among
the delegate was in favor of co-operation
by the three parties and tbe nomi
nation of only one set of candidate.
The Important and difficult question
was a to which of thn Hires parties
should choose the candidate for judgs
ship. I'.neb party claimed tb sitiou.
Titers was much discussion around the
hotels and opinion seemed to b divided
about equally.

In the following platform and resolu
tions which were unanimously adopted
by a standing vote.
VLktrouu.
The people's independent party of Ne
braska reaffirms the principles of oar
national platform adopted at St. Louis.
Ve stand upon every one of the grand
truths therein enunciated and specifical
ly reiterate our loyalty to tbe free coin
age of silver at tbe ratio of 16 to 1.
Ws pledge tbe people that there shall
be no faltering nntil private corpora'
tions are stripped of the privilege of is
suing money and until all oar currency,
whether coin or paper, shall be issued
by the government and shall all be
standard money of the United States,
We congratulate William J, flryan,
who, though defeated,: yet triumphant,
who having neither rank nor riches, is
still the most popular citizen of tbe re
public. We congratulate Senator Allen on the
splendid work be has done for Nebraska
and the nation. j
We comment the position taken by our
congressional delegation, Congressmen
Maxwell, Stark, Sutherland and Greene,
and we appreciate the efforts of all who
in any way contributed to the success of
the trans-Mississippi exposition or other
measures for the benefit of oar state,
W are thankful to Providence rather
than to any nan for the messare of
prosperity with vbich oar state has been
blessed and we attribute tbe rise in tbs
price of wheat to foreign scarcity rather
than to suppose it to be tbe result of
dear sugar or an increased tariff oa
straw.
W are unalterably and unequivocally
in favor of the recognition of tbe inde
pendence of the Cuban republic, and we
condemn tbe republican party for having
failed to carry ont the opcciAe pledge
of tbeir national platform on this ques
tion. We view with alarm the settled policy
of tbe present national administration
to retire our greenback currency, and
issue gold interest bearing bonds in place
thereof, and we denounce each a course
as a change in the settled policy of onr
government and a betrayal of tbe inter
ests of our people.
We commend the striking coal miners
of the east for tbe orderly and law-abiding
manner in which they have carried
on their great battle for bread, and we
condemn the fresh examples of "govern
ment by injunction" by which these men
have been deprived of rights which the
constitution guarantees to every Ameri
can citizen, namely, freedom of assem
blage and freedom of speech.
We congratulate Nebraska on her
splendid crops; on tbe great exposition
soon to be held within her borders; on
tbe re-establishment of her credit, and on
her redemption from political mis-rule.
That tbs populist victory which was said
to mean ruin, has 'meant ber salvation;
that a new era is opening before ber;
tbat new industries have come; new
capital has sought ber for investment;
that today she seems tbe most prosper
ous stale in the union, and all these
lieneflcient chsngen hsv come nbont
under populist control.
We commend the safe, sonnd and sen
sible adinistrationof Governor Holcomb
and of the state government In all Its
branches, L'uder it ws gladly notice
tbat revenues ore flowing la to tbs state
treasury from many channels that be
fore seemed clogged; that the floating
debt Is being reduced; that stats war
rants bavs gons up Irom 0.1 cents on tb
dollar to a premium; that tbs school
lands ar being leaded as the law In
tended; that stats defaulters ar being
vigorously prosecuted and promptly
convicted, that stats Institutions ar
being run mors economically than ever
More, and that ws will never again
hear tbs campaign calamity cry that a
populist administration will ruin ths
credit of tbe state.
