Loveland, Iowa, July 15, .'82.
The Weaver boom has started here
in nice shape.
Col. E. A. Flet her of Franklin,
Neb., cams here from the Omaha con
vention to visit relatives and was in
duced to talk to our people at Loveland
on the 8th, and at the Valley on the
llth, and the manner in which he
poured hot shot and shell into the old
parties was wonderful. If he had re
mained about ten days he could have
put our people (or at least a respectable
majority of them) into the Weaver
camp in good shape. He is a fine
talker.
Yours for Weaver and Fields, '
Independent.
For Attorney General.
St. Paul, Nebr., July 19, 1892.
There has been but very little talk as
to who should be the candidates on the
people's ticket for the variou3 state
offices, but Howard county would like
to support for the office of attorney
general one whom they grew to love
during the last campaign. We refer to
Hon. T. W. Bartley, of Burwell, Gar;
field county, who is a forcible speaker,
a No. 1 lawyer, and who is an able ad
vtcate of the principles of the people's
party. In the lat campaign he was
a candidate for district judge in this
district, running on the independent
ticket with Hon. JolirjThompson against
Judges Harrison and Coffin, the sitting
republican judges, and to Mr. Bartley's
credit, he polled more votes outside of
Hall county the home of both Mr.
Ha: rison and Mr. Thompson than any
other candidate. It is hoped that tl e
name of Hon. T. W. Bart'ey will le
brought before the convention at Kear
ney and that he will receive the nomi
nation and the support he deserves.
The party in Howard county is in
splendid fighting trim, with no war
ring factions and all willing to work
for what seems b33t for the people at.
large. Independent clubs are being
formed and it is intended to make an
organization iu each precinct for effec
tive work.
Yours for success,
J L. Claflin.
Old Or New Leaders, Which?
Brock, Neb., July 18, 1892.
Please allow me through the columns
of your paper to say a word to the
Kearney state convention delegates.
As to candidates I have no personal
choice, but there is a principle that I
hope will be observed. The g. o. p.'s
have taken pains to advise us to put up
good new men. Now this would be
trood advice if the word "old" were
used instead of the word ""new."
Thus, put up good old experienced
men. There are men in the party to
day who in the past have taken off
their coats and walked bravely into the
fight, when nothing but darkness and
defeat confronted them. These men
through earnest effort and fruitless toil
have brought the party up to its
present greatness.
And now that the nomination with
out doubt means the election arc we to
take the g. o. p. advice and reject these
old heroes. I hope not. The son who
at maturity thrusts his father from the
door cannot longer prosper. The same
rule holds true in the reform move
ment. If we reject the fathers of re
form we ought not to prosper. In my
opinion, with old experienced men on
our state ticket we can dep3nd on old
Nemaha. Old Stand-by.
What They Think of Holden.
The following resolution was unani
mously adopted by the Independent
convention of Brown county:
Resolved, That we believe that the
"Liberty," edited by W. C. Holden, at
Lincoln, Nebr., was established for the
purpose of creating a discord in the
ranks of the People's independent
party,-and that we consider it unwor
thy of the support or patronage of any
true independent.
The following resolutions were unan
imously adopted by the Loup county
Alliance at its last meeting:
Whereas. A pretended independent
paper called Liberty, published at Lin
coln by oro Holden, has made charges
of a disparaging nature against Hon.
O. M. Kem and other workers in the
independent ranks, ihsrefore be it
Resolved, By the Loup county Alli
ance, that we be'ieve said charges ire
made at the ids aio of and in the in
terest of the enemies I the people's
cause and arc utterly false and without
foundr tion in fact;
Resolved, That we heartily endorse
Mr. Kern's course since he has been a
member of c on 2 r ass and favor his re
nomination by the convention which is
to assemble at Kearney on August 6,
1892. Wm. Thorp, Pres.
F. A. Wissig.

Mrs. Kerper's crlee club which is com

some ministers who have the true
spirit of Christianity. Bro. Fleharty is
one of them.
The forenoon meeting was addressed
by I. J. Lynch, and O. Hull, who
handled the issues of the day to tne
satisfaction of all.
A errand picnic dinner followed. It
was free to all, and fully enjoyed by
all.
After dinner Mrs. Clark favored the

Rev. N. H. Blockmer was the first
eeeaker. He said that he felt that he
he was serving his Divine Master when
he spoke for the people's cause.
Next followed a picnic dinner, after
which, Assistant Lecturer Fairchild
addressed the crowd. He challenged
anyone present to contradict any of his
statements. Although a number
cf republicans who have been
always assembled to know everything
worth knowing, were present, no one
acGep ted the challenge. This is the
first time a bioadside of aUiance hot
shot was ever fired into this crowd of
,'wise men." The speaking was follow

Several who a ve always voted with
