COR. 10th And THIS AND TnAT. For Sale or Trade Anything in the shop for votes for Sam Low, I tor district clerk. Terms to suit customer. For further particulars inquire at republican machine headquarters or Capital bar. G. W. I3erge, populist candidate for county judge, has challenged S. T. Cochran, the republican nominee, to a series of joint debates upon the political issues of the day, both local and general, such discussions to take place at such times and places and to be gov erned by such rules as may be agre ed upon. Should Cochran en gage in this contest, after the smoke clears away he wijl very much resemble the parrot after his bout with the monkey. Health Officer Rohde reports forty-two deaths in Lincoln during August. Among the causes of death are these two significant words Marasmus, 3. If you look in a dictionary you will find that word defined as a wasting away without apparent disease. That is the lingo of the doctors. It means starvation. This is the era "of the gold standard. t Reports received from one of our solicitors who attended the Hickman fair, look very blue for John Troinpen's candidacy for sheriff. It is said that when Sam Low went down to the fair last week, prominent republicans there notified him that if he wanted any votes in that propinquity he must cut the society of Trompen, as everybody down there was for Fied Miller. This being the case all over the county no wonder Sam Low is anxicus to make trades. Poor Sammy: he is not in it with laker. John Trompen has been iu town this week shaking bands and be ing guyed by the gang he thinks -are his friends and giving him their support. John realizes that he can not be elected sheriff, especially with the gang trading him off, and has about given up the race. That's right, John; keep your money and don't be a sucker. The boys are sticking t knife into you. 20c pair goat l.'lc pair (10 pairs Turkish Towels worth 40c pair go at 33c pair 50 pairs fancy Linen Towels worth 40e pair go at 19c pair Dross Ginghams worth 8c yd go at 4c yd Fast colors Shirting worth 8!.;c yd go at 4c yd Outing Flannel worth 8c yd go at 5c yd All Wool lted Flannels worth .'iOc yd go at lite yd All Wool White Flannel worth 30c yd go at 19c yd 3(5 inch Novelty goods worth 25c yd goat i 13c yd 30 inch double width Cashmeres all wool worth 25c go at 12 ?i'c PSts OLD From sheer desperation over the waning prospects of Sam Low the machine gang of the boodlers are offering to trade anything in the shop for Low votes. They even went so far as to get J. P. Hildebrant on the rump ticket for district clerk, with the vain hope that he could cart some votes over to their camp. Pull . their leg, "Hilde," before it is "everlastingly too late." They will never put up after election, when Baker gets through with them. The young men's republican club held an informal "inebria tion" at" the Lindell a few evenings since. Conspicuous among the causes for jollification was the man ner in which the "young men" had captured the party of appro priations, and the turning down of such battle-scarred veterans as Gran Ensign, Ed Sizer, Mr. Burr, et al. Thk wave of prosperity which was promised by John Sherman to How over this country "within ten days" after the repeal of the Sher man act, is tardy in making its ap pearance. Lincoln is a city fair to look upon and is as prosperous as any in the west, but last week mortgages were foreclosed upon one whole addition, nearly 400 parties being served with notices in a day. Another day this week the Kimball hotel and the Windsorstables were sold at sheriff sale. "Sound money" was paid for them, and that balances all othet evils. Cotner university is one ot the best denominational colleges in the west. It opened its doors to its large clientele of patrons last Tues day. The boys and girls will re ceive not only a scientific, but a christian training there. The business men of the city of Lincoln should thoroughly investi gate the question of authority of Lord Russell to issue his edict to prevent them from selling goods to lawful purchase's, and Mr. Russell can write it down that any injury done individuals by his manipula tions will be held in strict remem brance by the injured parties.

Chairman Taubeneck has written a letter to Col. Norton of the Sen tinel in which he talks practical polities. He says: "Let us look the situation that comfronts us square in the face. We need at least 4,000,000 more votes to elect a p.esident and con gress in 18. This is a cold fact Ask yourself, Colonel where do they come from; You know we must have them. Are they to come from those who believe in . "Scien tifiic Money?" No. From the So cial istsr No. From those who believe in the nationalization of all monopolies? No. From those who believe in the land question? No. All these questions combined will not add more than 800,000 new re c? nits to our ranks. Where then must we look for the necessary 4, 000,000 votes? There is but one place, Colonel, and that is the sil ver republicans and silver demo crats, who at the present time are making the fight for free coinage inside the old parties, and are go ing to be whipped." He adds: "lont say that I favor bunks of issue, because 1 am op posed to the idea of abandoning our silver plauk. No one has a better record than mine, for demanding that all the paper money needed ia addition to gold and silver shall be issued by the government and made a full legal tender.1' The State Journal says Tauben eck has abandoned the free coinage of silver. The State Journal is the old reliable. IF THEY ONLY YVOCil). If the populists of this country would quit throwins; their money away on opposition papers, and give their patronage to the papers which are fighting their own battles, we would soon be able to establish daily papers in every state of the union, and the peoples party would sweep the eouutry iu 1S1(.

No words can exsggerate the im porta nta nee of a suficient volume of standard money to maintain sta bility of general prices, because upon stability depends the prosper ity and happines of the human race. It is of no consequence of what material standard money is made. I do not advocate silver, because free coinage of silver is the only remedy that might be devised, but I advocate it because it is the only remedy within reach. The world is educated to believe that the pre cious metals are money, and before they could be educated to believe that any other material was money the gold combination,which is grow ing more colossal every day by reason of the enhancing purchas ing oower of money, world have the chains of slavery so thoroughly rivited that the human race could not break them for centuries. In other words, as the question is now presented, it is silver or slavery. Senator Win. M. Stewart. yoi; Are a committee of one to circu late this paper. It should be in the home of every populist.
