Official Paper Sherman County The Graod Duke and DuObess of Germany had a family row last week, of which the dispatches say “He laid violent hands on her and ejested her from the room" Royalty draws a soft veil over vulgarity. Out here id Nebraska we would of sab] be got a first class jag on and kicked her out of the shanty. Anti-Jewish riots are reported in many parts of the old world, especial ly from Paris and Algiers. The Jew seems to have a hard time in this world. He loves no one but his dol lars. and no one loves him. It seems that the sins of his father shall for ever be handed down. u was rumoreo iasi punoay in Washington, that Consul General Lee had been nssassinated in Havana, But tbe report whs of course unfoun ded, never the less Uncle Samuel hus his navy mighty close the little Is land and dire vengence would soon be reeked. Would some charitably disposed Congressman who (nay be attending to his duties in Washington, pleas inform us of the where abouts of one Billgreen of Kearney Neb. U. 8. A. sixth congressional (lis t., Who mis represented said diseriut at the cap ital of the United States duriDg the extra session of congress. He is about fifty years old five feet ten inches high weighs about two hun dred lbs. is ten inches across the muzzle, and of two inch caliber. Could easily be distinguished among the common herd by his populistic features, it is feared th.-it be lias got V mixed up with his first love, the un washed democracy, and may be lost, as he has not been beard of this term. Our ‘Windy” V. Allen is surely making himself heard in tbe United States Senate. We have not beard of a single measure brought before that body that be has not opposed with great vigor. Last week he made a three hours speach against the appointment of McKenna as asso ciate Justice of the supreme court, and another against the appointment of H. M. Busbnell as post master oi l.incuiu. ne reiui uus uue oi me woman that ask another woman what her husbands politics was and she said be was an anti, an anti what was asked and she said no not an anti what, hut just a cornon anti, opposed to every thing that any body wants. Sanford ii. Dole Dresident of lla waii is in Washington looking alter the interests of his Island home on the <|uestion of annexation to this coun try. Mr. Dole is a true hearted American, and knows that it will be to our advantage to annex those Is lauds for many reasons. To talk shout its being against the sagar interests of Nebraska is the shvarcst rot. Kverv pop paper In the country Is cry iug loudly against their annex alum, and trying to make the people tmlieve that the sugar kiugs are strictly in favor of taking them into the union, when the facts are they are all lighting against it If it Were possible locultivate eanv on eveiv foot of tillable land on the islands, they iambi not s#m* us enough sugar to any way near supply our demand and cheap sugar i* what we want. The people of this great country > consume shout seventy p*mud* of sugar to the inhabitant annually and |f a foreign war »u to cut off our supply from European couutivs sugar would *m bw»«hty that the classes cow 14 vlt od Now would'nt a little judicious reas oning on this question convince one that it would he better for Unc le Sam to own the source of such a great supply of a staple article than to send our money to al'oruign power that has no interest in common with us only to gel our gold. If the sugar question is to be the great one in controversy, and if it is not, it would seem that from a military stand-point the United States can not afford to be without that strate gic oasis in ttie middle of the l’acif ic ocean. Hawaii belongs to iis as also does Cuba and their people with the exception of a tew prejudiced negroes want us to have them. It dont pay to oppose a necessity be cause the opposite party are in favor of it. t^ueen I,il, is in favor of an nexation since she sees that her niece will wear the crown if the republic is overthrown. The crown was the only source of her opposition and since that is out of her reach she wants annexation also. SCrKKVISOIt'S CHOCEEDINOS.
