There seems to be quite a demand for hands just at present, tlie rush of the formers with harvest and haying fur nisiies employment for all who desire it. The democrats of the first congression al district of Nehraka pawied a resolu tion in opposition to the federal election bill. Such actions are unaccountable. A game of ball was played on Tues day afternoon between the married men and single men and resulted in a victory for the former. A great deal of fun was had by all. Rev. Wm. Wilson arrived from Ills nois a few days ago and is getting a house up on his land southwest of town. He is a brother of Robert Wilson, one of our substantial farmer near Harrison. Rev. I. F. Lusk will preach at his regular appointments in the valley next Sabbath morning and afternoon. Thin wiU be his last service at these places during this conference year. Rev, N. E. Oardner, of Heniingford, will lecture on temperance, at the church on next Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, All art invited to be present and hear him. Now U a good time to write to your friends in the east who ate paying high rent for land, urging them to come west and get some land of their own. The short crops in many localities will nuke it necessary for many of tliem to neck a new location ami Sioux county ought to get her share of the emigration. Kemniler, the New York murderer, lias exhausted every means of delay al lowed by law and it is probable that be fore the readers of The JocRSAL receive this paper he will have beeu executed by electricity. He has been ably defended, as the companies interested in the elec tric currents did not want their appli ances used. ' " In another column, appears tlie pro clamations of the governor submitting the three constitutional amendments pro posed at the last session of the legisla- ture, publish laws vm faivy now stand, wherein changes are proposed so that our readers may compare tiiem. The proclamations will be published eacb week until election, as the law provides that they shall be published for three months, prior to election, in each county tn the state. A few days ago George Bo wen was oh his way to his pasture early in the morning, when he saw what he thought were his neighbor's pigs running towards his coraBetd. He called his dog and started to drive-them ofT, but soon foun j they were not pigs but coons, and thnre were fifteen or twenty of them in ths bunch. That is a pretty good coon story but J. M. Daniels is our authority for it The boys of that neighborhood are plan ning to capture the animals. John Oibson who was arrested a few days ago and taken to Cherry county on charge of horse-stealing was taken to the penitentiary on last Monday to serve out a sentence passed on him by Judge Kin kaid. A man by tlie name of Obright was also sentenced at the same time. When a man commits a crime, punish ment usually overtakes him. If a per son wants to live long and enjoy his liberty, the safest way is to act accord ing to aw. The 'Mult of the examination by the commissioners of insanity, of Charles Dixon, the would-be suicide, resulted in his being adjudged insane and the report of the physician with an application for admission was sent to the authorities of the insane hospital at Norfolk. On Mon day the necessary ''papers were received and that'ivening Sheriff Reidy left with Dixon for Norfolk. It Is hoped that un der proper medical treatment the young man's mind will be fully restored in a short time, so ' that he will be able to again take his place among men. ' A. R. Kennedy feels highly gratified Over his crop prospects. He came here last fall bd this is his first crop in Sioux county. He has sonw wheat winch it is estimated will yield thirty bushels or over per acre, and hit. outs and flax arc fine. In addition t Uiese he has on ex cellent garden, and taVcn altogether makes a good showing for the first year a man has been in a Dew country. If crops were as good all over the c6unty aatbey are here dn the table land it would be highly Fl(in, but even us it is it is no worse than it is in much of the older settled portions of this, as well , as other states, besides die land in tlie east has cost the ownr a good deal of asoney while the farmers of Sioox coun ty should count nothing except he-keud and labor expended.

Kennedy and it is good ef to encouraire anvone. There is no I tion but what the soil of Sioux- f .cf ..... .-.,- corn ra tion and attention. The fact of its being too dry this season in some parts of the county is no argument against the conn ty. That has been the case in a large por tion of the state, as of Kansas. Missouri, Iowa and the Lakotas. Sioux county has as good a prospect for the future as any of the newly settled sections of country, and far better than a number of the new counties of this state At the republican congressional con vention of the second district at Hast ing on July 30ih, Hon. N. V. Harlan, of York, was nominated on the first ballot to succeed Congressman Laws. In this it is again demonstrated that the anti mouopoly element of tlie piety is on top. Mr. Harlan has long been known as being strongly in favor of justice to the people and his home county is one of the strongest anti-monopoly republican counties in the state. In the house of representatives of which Mr. Harlan was speaker four years ago, he made a record as a man of integrity and brains. He will be elected, without doubt, and the second district will have an able rep resentative in congress. The Lincoln Call, tiw most radical anti-manopoly republican paper in the state, expresses itself as being entirely satisfied with the platform adopted at the republican state convention and as serts that if tlie candidates who ac cepted a nomination at the hands of the convention after the plaU form was adopted, live up to tlie pledges thus made, it is all that could be asked. Tlie anti-monopoly element in the state convention held the winning hand and they will see to it that the men elected by them do keep their pledges. If tlie platform is acceptable to tht- CM, it is safe to predict tliat it will prove accep table to the auti-monoply republicans all over the state.

Tlie republican nominees for the of fices of county commissioner and couo ty attorney are before the peoile and it is right that the voters should know something of the men for whom they are asked to cast their ballots. The follow ing is a sliort sketch of the men nomin ated by tlie republican county conven tion on July 19, 1800: EU J. WJIOOX the republican candidate for county commissioner for the first district was born iu Medina county, Ohio, in 1894. In 1865 he settled in Iowa and engaged in farming. In 1800 he crossed the plaint to Pike's Peak in search of gold, and continued that search until July, 1801, when be enlisted in Company B, 1st Colorado Infantry, and was engaged in the campaign against the Texas rangers in the wilds of New Mexico, and in guarding , the United States mails from depredations by the Indiana He served four years and four months in tlie army. In 1886 Mr. Wilcox came to Sioux county and engaged in farming and stock raising and still continues in that business. He is well known to many of the people of Sioux county and all know him to be a straightforward, honest and honorable man. His election to the oltlce or county commissioner would insure to the taxpayers of Sioux county an honest and economical ad ministration of the public affairs and the voters of the county will be looking -to their interests bv electing him by a good majority. II. T. CONLEY the republican candidate for county at torney, was born in Washington county, New York, July 4, 1800. In 1865 he re moved with his parents to Illinois, where he remained until the fall of 187$, when he removed to Seward county, Neb. He spent some years on the farm and as a clerk, while attending the high school at Seward, after which he at tended the state university at Lincoln, teaching school a portion of the time to obtain money to complete his education. At the close of a three years' course at the university, be read law with Noival Brothers, of Seward, and Brown 4 Ryan Brothers, of Lincoln. He was admitted IS tne oar in 18S. before Judge T. tw the atipreaa' court, after which be lev cated at Ansley, Custer county, where he practiced law for two years. In the 1 'r fall of 1888 he came to Sioux county and engaged in the practice of his pro fession and has ever been outspoken for right and justice to the people. The writer has been personally acquainted with Mr. Conley since boyhood and has ever found him to be a young man of excellent principles and high integrity. He is a close student of the law and is eminently fitted for tlie position for which he has been nominated. The peo ple of Sioux county will find him, as they have found him in the past, true to every trust reposed in hini.und if elected he will give his best efforts to the du ties of his oftice. More About Him. Below we republish additional com ments on II. T. Conley, the republican nominee for county attorney, made by those who -know him: "Hugh T. Conley, a former Seward boy, has been nominated for eounty at torney by the republicans of Sioux coun ty, and the Blade, together with his many friends in Seward county will be glad of his election. Mr. Conley is an energetic, and wide-awake young man, who educated himself entirely by his own exertions, and is a man of the strict est integrity, being thoroughly honora ble in all his dealings, public as well as private. If the people of 8ioux county want an attorney who will attend strictly and honorably to their business, they will elect Hugh Conley." Seward Blade. "We understand that Mis Hugh Con ley, formerly of this place, but now of Harrison, Neb., has been nominated by the republicans of Sioux county for the office of county attorney. Hugh's many friends in Ansley will be glad to bear of this honor conferred upon him, which is no mors than his -ability as an attorney, and'his popularity as a citisen justly merits. The republicans of Sioux county are to be congratulated upon their wise selec tion, and the Chrcmidt takes pleasure In endorsing Hugh 'for the office." Attdey ChmnieU. Ddtaqrt Ta. Kotic.
