The prospects for victory were never
brighter, since the birth of our party
than now. A grand man hat been
nominated for supreme judge, to -whom
ann th Atifttnv can ddIv no word of
censure. The candidates for regents
are also good men and especially quill
fled for the position to which they have
"been nominated.
The platform adopted is concise and
'Conservative. It contains not one plank
to which any patriotic American can
-object. It is such a platform that if i's
recommendations were enacted Into
law, better times would result to every
citizen of Nebraska.
a raw OBJECT LESSONS.
The action" of tbe republican and
democratic oartlos in striking dow n
half of our metallic currency, thus
repudiating the silver planks In both
their national platforms; the action of
the. republicans in the last legislature
in opposing all laws for the bsneftt of
the people of Nebraska, and notably the
mail noun rate bill; tbeexpjeuree of the
terrible fraud and rottenness existing at
the state capital and in the state insti
tutions; the approval of a rotten and
worthless bond by the republican state
.officials, thereby losing the state over
two hundred thounndjdollars; the par
tisan decisions of a republican supreme
court; the failure of the republican
state treasurer to live up to the laws
made to govern him; the failure of the
republican attorney general to attempt
recovery of moneys stolen form the
' tate and his further failure to do his
duty under the law; the action 01 a
republican United States district judge;
in suspending the mixlmun rate law;
and further tbe open railroad domina
tion of both the older political partle,
furnish a few object lessons that show
-the people they can hop for no reform
through these organizations. They must
turn to the new.
UNITED W2 STAND.
The nomination of Judge Holoomb
has healed up every factional sore, if

As an undivided army we are ready

common people both in our state and in

AS TO SENDING MONEY.
It is of the utmost importance that
each county should pay her af8"ssnent,
or at leant part of it, at oaoe. We have
got to have money to carry on w ciu-
pilgn. we nave no bi"ii vi iwu .
t-xcept from our people, a smaii
amount from eaca one oi our vuw
will raise us a more than ample ram
palgn fund. We pledge you low that
every cent which we receive win d
acoountfd for and that our statnnt
at the end of tbe campaign will be open
to the inspection of all; ana u require
will be published.
J 11 money should b int h ths Uav.ttr
oftfu committee. J. V. Wolfe, uncmn.,
Mbraiia. - All who know of Mr. Wolfe'
cmpa'gn In '91, know that all money
received was aooouweu ior w iua vu
and to the satisfaction of everybody.
Tbe same will be done this year.
MAKBT1GAL CAMPAIGNS.
Your committee would recommend
that the campaign be mide by local
talent as much as possible. Have school
bouse meetings. .
Wa inii niiin recommend the eroup
lng of counties. One c ounty can trade
anHWa with adioinloir oountks; and
ihna whlU malcinsy a vigorous cam
nut an mm narativelv little expense is
incurred. At the same time people can
listen to new talent.

baggage and express cars., It had run
to a point three miles south of Man-
teno when a local train, wnicn was
preceding it slowed up, and a flag
man was sent back to intercept
it. The engineer on the first section
obeyed the signal and drew his train
to a standstill. The flagman of the
first section in turn started for the
rear, but the second section was fol
low, ng so closely that be had gone bat
few yards when arouna a sharp

This coach and the coach just forward

night The passengers were thrown
from their berths and from their
seats. Some were crushed under
beams and between the broken, grind
