THE JUDICIAL FIUHT IN THE 14TH
CISTRICT.
Judge J. E. Cochrsn, cf McCook. Xeb..
i scheming to capture toe independent
nomination for District Judge in the 14th
Judicial District. Judge Cochran when
first appointed Judge, at the time thii
district tu created, was the partner of
W. S. Morian the salaried B. & M. nil
road attorney of western Nebraska and
an ail round fine worker. Afterwards
when elected at the republican candi
date, in 187. hi nomination and elec
tion were secured by and through the
same influence. The Judge fought con
gressman McKeighan bitterly last fall,
and now claims to be a republican and
nothing else, and is being pushed upon
the farmers by W. S. Morlan, J. P.
Lindsay of the McCook Land Office, as
sisted by Judge LeHew of McCook. the
Boyd democratic striker of this district,
and tVeir lieutenants s-jattered over the
district. The Judge's recent pretended
affection for (he fanners is only part
and parcel of the scheme.
Farmers, do you realize that it not on
ly means putting an enemy in the shape
of an unrepentant republican upon the
bench, but it also aims to create dissen
sion in the independent ranks, divide
the independent rote, and secure a demo-
republican state senator and two or
three representatives in !$, and this
yon can not afford. Don't be hornswog
gied in the 14tb district.
VIOLATED THEIR H0X0B AXD SOLD
THEIR PASSES.
"No 40 of 'Confidential memoran
dum,' which contains a list of individ
uals who have violated railroad passes,
has just been issued. The railroad ofli
cials will not divulge the name of the
compiler or publisher of this unique
monthly, which is circulated secretly
among them. The present Dumber
comprises nineteen pages devoted to in
dividuals and seyen to minor newxpa
pers. Among the individual delinquents
are ministers and national, state and lo
cal ollicials who are charged with having
Hold, loaned, altered, extended and even
forged passes and special and editorial
trip and mileage tickets."
We find the above in the press dis
patches. It gives a graphie view of the
demoralization of the pass business, and
the extent of it. Think of nineteen
pages of names of persons and papers
who have in tome way violated their
honor and defrauded a railroad com
pany which bad favored them with a
pats. The fact is, that every man who
receives a pass knows that be Is a parti
cipator in a fraud upon the community,
and be has only to stretch his conscience
a little further to consent to become a
swindler of the company.
tW Honest John Bardsley is not the
first republican official of unimpeach
able morality, great prominence and
hosts of friends, who has been con
demned to wear striped clothing and
close clipped hair. And if Justice pre
vails be will not be the last.
tW" Says the York lndeptndtn t: "Joe
Edgerton is the man we want for Su
preme Judge. It makes no difference
what others think of him, and bow much
tbey minify bis virtues; he is the right
man in the right place "
tar Alliance candidates are being
trotted out by scheming politicians out
side of the Alliance, for the purpose of
dividing the independent forces. Look
out for these schemes, and don't let
yourselves be made the tools of the old
party tricksters.
tJTlhe republican state committee
met at Lincoln last Wednesday, to ad
minister upon the republican estate, the
party having died intestate. Chairman
Johnny Watson and Secretary Walt
Seeley got the assets, and the dear peo
ple pot the liability. The principal of
the latter is the liability of the remains
to be buried next November.
This government uses for money paper
that has no special value, gold that has
a marketable value nearly equal to the
amount stamped on its face, silver that
has a selling value of three-fourths of its
use as money and copper that is worth
but seven cents on the dollar, and they
all go at par and we are glad to get them.
Hamilton Co. Rtu'isler.
jy Some gentlemen who are inde
pendents "this fall,'' for what there is
in it. and don't know what party they
may be in next fall, proposed to join the
Citizens' Alliance. But when they saw
the pledge they were required to take,
and that it Involved a promise not to
support any candidate of either of the
old parties, they weakened. It was too
strong meat for them; and they went off
and organized a private league of their
own. beginning no where, and ending
in a squirrel track and running up a tree.
But they deiined themselves. They are
independents for policy and office, and
are orgnnuid fur work.
Silling Grain
Selling grain is as much a science as
growing grain, a od farmers should be
potted on the point. As scion as wheat
Is ripe farmers haul the surplus of old
w brat to U grain sun or mills. This
is generally bought at the price of new
worst. It Is this old wheat thus ob
tained that Is ground or shipped to di

Cyclone Campanjr.
We hear of cyclones and tornadoes
almost every week, and have bo assur
ance that it will not be our torn next,
and as all prudent men want to be In
sured in a good company, why not or
ganize a company of your own covering
a large territory, and with I.W.OOO or
1300,000 worth of property insured at
the start, would give us a start that
would insure success and conlidence to
even the most incredulous, and by Jan.
1, we could have f 1,000,000, if the
proper amount of work was done. I am
in receipt of letters from all parts of the
state relating to insurance, and all are
wanting a cyclone company, but many
want to wait until It is started. If all
were so inclined at least a quarter of a
million would be taken from our state
this year, but I assure you that all are
not built that way. N. O. Albert volun
teered to solicit in his neighborhood,
and wrote me to send him some contin
gent applications. Yesterday be re
turned a batch of applications with
7,810. Others are sending in applica
tions, and report that after hat-vent they
can speed a little time in the work, and
by almost every letter I am asked for
manner 01 procedure in tne organiza
tion of a county company to insure
against fire and lightning. I have told
so often in these columns lately bow we
are doing in this county, and will not
repeat it just now. Please look up back
numbers of The Faemeks' Alliance.
I am told that old companies are now
offering insurance at one per cent.
None of our good men will accept in
surance at any price, now that we have
a law by which we can incorporate our
own company and do our own insu
rance, for if our local company should
fall to onranixe the stock companies
will fall back to their old bleeding
prices. A word to tne wise is sutucicnt.
Insurance Law,
The insurance law is in print In pam
phlet form in the auditor's office. I
would suggest that erery County Alli
ance in the state appoint a committee
on insurance and authorize that com
mlttee to make some arrangement
about insurance. In some counties in
toe state you have companies now or
ganized in which you could well af-
lord to insure, and tnen help to reor
ganize ana incorporate. Others have a
company embracing several counties
that coma ue usea in tne same way,
providing all could agree.

Is Tbsre an Advance Seed Co?
Lyons, Neb., July 1, '01.
Editor Farmers' Alliance: Being a
subscriber to your paper, I take the
privilege of writing you, hoping you
will consider the request for informa
tion favorably. During the past spring
agents of Advance Seed Co. of Lincoln,
placed contracts with farmers of this lo
cality for raising beans for said com
pany; said company to furnish seed free
and pay i 00 per bushel for crop, Said
company failed to deliver seed and noth
ing has been heard from said company
about it. Information is this, viz: Is
there an "Advance Seed Co." of Lin
coln? If so does it do square business,
and if it does, why delinquent in fur
nishing seed as per contract? You will
confer a favor to many subscribers by
giving reply torough your valuable pa
per. Yours truly, E. L. UnimTii.
A careful inquiry fails to give any evi
dence of the existence here of any such
firm, and we are quite certain that the
Advance Seed Co. is a myth. The offer
they make as noted above should arouse
suspicion at once, and all such agree
ments can safely be set down as fraudu
lent. The Hamilton County Register says:
"The opponents cf the people realize
that they have but one leg left to stand
on, and unlets the non-partisan judiciary
scheme can be made to work they fear
that will be sawed short off.

When old Mr. Lambly drove away
from his old country home, the other
morning, his wife called after him: 'Jay!
be sure and bring home some new pans!"
And good, innocent old Mr. Jay
Lambly said he would; and just before
he left tbe city he came Into our store,
and was fitted with the very latest s'yle
of a garment, the vulgar name of which
very much resembles that of tbe tin re
ceptacles he was instructed to procure.
Of course, Mrs. Lambly was somewhat
disappointed, but Mr. Lambly did look
so spruce and well-dressed in the ele
gant, well-tittlng and stylish pair of
trousers that we bad sold him. at a much
lower price than he could have procur
ed them elsewhere, that she was perfect
ly willing to wait until the next trip
for her tinware, and has already cut up
Uucie Jay's old trousers for carpet rags.
Yes, dear friend, your hat is out of
style, and you will need to lay it away
on one of the back number shelves.
But you needn't feel badly when for
such a tiny hgure at our Hat Depart

cranium adorners. We have all the
neat late stylet for Summer wear, and
our hats can cover the best brains in this

and because the had smiled upon him
two most excellent reatontfor hit
opinion! Stern, reserve man as lie was,
this woman had found the way Into
hiil most inner heart. Whether he had
also found the way to her heart was
quite another question, and one which
he dared not nsk at yut. Miriam
favored him, certainty, but she favor
ed other chosen feiv also. There was
young Dr. Walter, who came every
morning at iuirmen4 took Miriam
cantering over the hill. 17 wan, per
haps, at formidable a rival an Steven
Welmore had or, at leant, lie wae
feared the most. St even Welmore hid
full faith that Miriam would be hi in
the end, for he belinvod in tula, and
the futet undoubtedly meant her for
him. Or if they did not he would win
her in tpite of fatct or furiosi either,
He rode up to the Cedars one early
Feptcrnher morning, just as the tun
was risirlg, hoping to forestall Dr.
Walter and secure Miriam for himself;
but they were already gone; to he
turned about and waited until they
should return.
In perl i nps half an hour he saw
them coming over the road in t he dis
tance at a break-nock pace, Miriam
ahead.
"Only a rtwc," she eaid ns she drew
her panting horse up betide him.
"And fairly won' the doctor add

Dr. Walter, inwardly provoked that
he uitiHt leave them alone bowed hit
adieu, naying he had nn ttnavoidublo

"It it my turn now, It it not?" Steven
nked.
He thought Miriam's face hid

down to the woods for a ijtuut
talk.
"Well. Nothing would please mo

What an opportunity for hind.
They directed their Iioikhh through
the gato fit the back of the house, and
down a footpath lending oat of the
grounds and into the road toward the
river; then, cantering on for perhaps
a quarter of a mile, they enmo under
the gorgeous many-colored trees.
"You do not believe in dreams, do
you?" she bcimu.
"No. Why"
"I Rtippote you did not," she con
tinued. "But, neverthclcH), 1 have
been so oppressed with terrible visions
for a week that they begin to have
tlioir effect. I am actually growing to
believe in them, and half fear somo
impending evil.
An amused smile- half broke over
Steven Welruore't face, but died away
ns Miriam caught the expression in
his eves.
"You Are laughingntnie. Therefore
you are not my friend."
She noke in cober enriienfc. ,
"I lil not suppose you admitted

"Nor I. Ix't us shako hands upon

"You. You say that, who can bind
