12 THE ALLIANCE-INDEPENDENT. J. T. M. 8 W 10 ART, Secretary f tbe Nebraska Mutual Cyclone. Tornado and Wind Storm iDiuraace Company, BDITOK. U communication! on Fire, Cyclone or Hall Insurance should be addressed to him at Lincoln, Nebraska. HAIL INSURANCE. Our assessment is delayed because some of the members did not report their losses until after I had been in their neighborhood, hence when I got to the office I had to commence a line of correspondence with each one and of course all takes time. I hope each member will have his money ready to send when he gets his assessment, so that we can make our )romlsos good to those who have had a ofis and remit their due December 1st. SOME SUGGESTIONS. To the members of the board of pub lic lands and buildings: Better have that grand jury investigation put off till next year. Woodward will bo " in then and he'll fix things all right for the board. To the corporations: Better fix matters up with Holden in good shape. Don't try to beat him out of any of his boodle. The U. P. tried to beat him out of $1,642 in 1881, and he gave the whole snap away, Handle him care fully or he may do the same thing again. To Eltosewater: Has it dawned upon you that a candidate runs faster when the Bee gets after him with its sting, than when it feeds him honey? If not, just cast your eyes in the direc tion of Tom Majors and Dave Mercer. To Senator Paddock: Holden's ser vices "as a newspaper man and other wise" can be secured cheaper now than they could twelve years ago. Better look after him at once, or somebody else will get ahead of you. To J. Sterling Morton: Now that election is over and you have some leisure time, better explain that little $50,000 railroad bond affair. To Mr. Rewick, Gov. Boyd and sev eral other people: Better not waste any more time showing up asylum steals. The people don't appreciate your efforts. They enjoy being robbed. To Frank Hubbard: Come home. You'll be in no danger. Your friends are "in it" for another term. To independents generally: Take a little rest. Give the people time to re flect on the situation. Perhaps they'll come to their senses after a while. If they don't you'll have to stand it a while longer. KETUBNS IN BRIEF. So soon as the official count is com pleted we will publish a table of the election returns. For the present the following summary is the best we can give. FOR congress: In the First district Bryan is elected by a plurality of about 200 over Field. Injthe second district Mercer, repub lican, is elected by about 1,000 over Doane democrat. In the Third district Meiklejohn is elected by abont 3,000 plurality over Poynter and Keiper who ran very close together. In the Fourth district Hainer is elected by about 2,000 over Dech and 4,000 over Vifquain. In the Fifth district McKeighan is elected by about 3,000 over Andrews. McKeighan carried every county but one, Adams, which Andrews carried by 92. In the Sixth district Kern is elected by about 2,500 over Whitehead. Kern carried about three-fourths of the counties, and in those which White head carried his majorities were very small. FOR ELECTORS. Harrison 88,603 Weaver 83,780 Cleveland.. 25,344 Harrisons plurality 4,823 FOR STATE OFFICERS. Crounse 78,682 Van Wyck... 68,424 Morton 43,464 Crounse's plurality 10,258 The above figures are very nearly correct. The balance of the republican candidates are elected by pluralities probably greater than that of Crounse. The total vote is about 30,000 short of the vote of 1890. Van Wyck's vote is much larger in proportion to the total than Powers' vote of two year ago. Crounse's plurality results chiefly from the falling off of the democratic vote. Morton's vote is about 30,000 short of Boyd's in 1890. On the whole there is nothing in the figures to show any fall ing off in the independent strength. A good many of our subscribers in renewing for The Alliance-Independent a year ago included the Arena under, the special clubbing offer we made them. This magazine has just closed its sixth volume and is easily first among the great monthlies. Among the good things which will appear in the December number will be a paper by Bishop J. L. Spalding of Peoria, 111., on "The Opening of the World's Fair on Sunday;" a paper by T. V. Powderly on "Government Ownership of Railways;" a paper by W. P. McLaughlin on "Evictions in Tenement House districts of New York City During the Past Year," in which many startling facts will be given, all taken from the official records. This will be the first paper of a series on our present social condi tions, which will run through The Arena for 1893, making it absolutely indispensable to all persons interested in the social problems of the day. "The Occult in Paris," by Napoleon Ney, the first period of their second series of physical papers. M. Ney is a grand son of the great Marshal of France, and has made a careful study of occultism in the French metropolis, and discusses in a most interesting manner the wide spread interest in all matters of a metaphysical and occult character. Dr. A. Nicholson, one of England's great est Shakespearean scholars, will pre sent a powerful paper in defense of the Shakespearean authorship of the plays ascribed to William Shakespeare. This paper will be a very notable contribu tion. Many other papers of special in terest will appear in this number, which opens the seventh volume of The Arena. The subscription price of The Arena is $5. We offer a year's subscription of The Alliance-Independent and The Arena one year for only $5, giving you this paper a whole year free. Subscribe at once and begin with the seventh volume of America's greatest magazine. The party is now solidly established in the state. Its principle are clearly defined, well understood and thor oughly believed in by all who voted the independent tickei this year. It is no longer the third party in Ne braska, but the strongly built, healthy growing ambitious and most influential member of the family. The indepen dent party is all right in this state and so far has been grandly successful. Its progress in the nation has been mar velous and is moving . forward toward the control of the government as rap idly as should be desired. Our object should not be simply to bring a new party into power, but by means of the party to agitate, educate and create a public sentiment in favor of reform that will sustain the party when it comes into supremacy.
