The republican State Convention
w.'im a harmonious gathering mid
all the nomination! were made prac
tical I y by acclamation. Judge Pont
wan renominated for tins supreme
bench and J. N. Dryden of Kearney
and C. W. Keley were named for re
gents of the state university.

though then Was some disatisfuctiou
regarding our nominations last week
it won't amount to an) tiling. Two
years ago t 1m* same condition of
things prevailed to a certain extent !
but we were able to get them into
line. ' This is assuming that tho --•■

I The fellow who ih a populist und
says he is, is entitled to a hearing
the fellow who is u republican and

entitled to the same consideration;

Our conte in pot ary commenced its
annual tyraile of abuse upon us two
weeks ago and in return we gave
the public a few cold facts which
did'nt set well with the outfit. Since
' then we have been asked by populist
to “let up on the poor fellow.” We
suggest that they first muzzle their
S own party organ. This paper will
take care of itself just as It has al
ways done.

The pop convention wan pulled off
In thin city on the 20th.
After aome preliminary work, an
adjournment wax taken to adjuatthe
machine.
< in reconvening a country delegate
wax talked of for eccrelary. I'Mitor
Brown uroae to explain “that it wax
clear that the convention would pro
ceed in accordance with the machine
programme: Thui the account of the
proceeding* act up hy the Timex In
dependent xtulf, beforehand would
need little or no change and IIK
would lie able to act a* aecrotaiv and
get the Timex Independent out on
time the following morning."
Tire report on order of huxineaHax
adopted allowed the delegate* from
each xupurvixorx dixtrict to aelect
one delegate to each of the higher
convention*. It took xome tnanov
eiing to get thix changed xo the ma
chine held the balance of power, hut
they managed it and it came out
ult right In the end. The xlut'/ ile
legation* went through with Juxt one
xernU’h.
When surveyor was readied it
was agreed tlml uh the party had but
mi" man who knew what a straight
line was lie would have to lie select
etl
I fart of Hazard n new comer,
wanted to know who wus running
for superintendent. Secretary Urown
was on hjs feel in on instant and ru
led the question out of order. Said
he: The office must seek Hie man.
How do you expect the slate to go
through if any fellow can boost him
self in here as u candidate?"
Charley .flionsori arose to say that
lie did not want a third term. This
pleased Mathew, lie had (o explain
just how much, and incidentally to
invite ex-sheriff Hendrickson to take
notice.
The discipline displayed by the
machine wassimply marvelous. Num
bers are not in it with fellows who
know what they waut and stand to
gether. The most masterly stroke
of the day was the manipulation con
nected with making Heorge Leining
erkill offllendriekson and also break
John Leiniuger’s boom for clerk. It
was a pretty example of killing two
birds with one stone.
Hy this time chairman Dickerson's
elforls to seperute the workers for
the “cause” from the members^of the
convention had subsided to a few
faiut raps of tbegovcl and a look of
profound disgust. When it was all
tied up in bundles there was no use
of making a fuss.
Miushull who was ou the “list”
for the nomination of clerk had en
ough to muko him with Ashton hold
ing her vote, nnJ Loup City firing
in the air. Sheriff was knocked
down without a single outside hid.
iiy this time ail effort on the
pail of the convention to name u
single man on thu ticket hud ceased,
uiid lint venerable head of represen
tative Sujdcr could not save him
from au open reproof from the urn
chine for daring even to name, an
opponent to Hadura, the slate wan- j
didale fur treasurer. On being dc

A dispatch from Galliapolis, Ohio
states tliut on Uic 2.'! of August, a
gang of despoisdoes of West Virgin
ia, with out provicatiou swooped
down on a picnic party at Glenwood
and broke up the party by their or
gies,
Itevolvers, knives, tonnes, single
trees and clubs were used. The
women fainted and others lied to the
hills. Lew Holley was killed out
right and William I’orter and Van
Lonkflcld, two members of the pic
nic party, were fatally stabbed,
Alonzo Porter had hiessull fractured
and half his face cut off and one eye
gouged out. ,
The radians were the members of
the Holley Imnd of outlaws, ami they
have killed at least a dozen men.
Wheat took another leg jump of sev
