ability is Republican.
GREAT GAINS IN OHIO.
Bleeding Kansas, Redeemed.
By 13,000 Majority.
Latest reports from all over the
northern states show great gains
for the Republican Parly. Nebras
ka is claimed by the Republican
State Central Committee by a safe
majority. And the Legislature is
claimed to be republican on joint
ballot.
Pennsylvania rolls up a clean
160,000 as usual, and lows, 60,000
for the Grand Old Party.
The National Congress is safely
Republican and the Spaniards have
lost the little hope they still cherish
ed for a divided administration.
_
Both branches of our state legis
lature are safe in the republican col
umn, with a good working majority
and oleomargarine has tuken a drop.
W. 11. Conger was defeated two
years ago for county attorney by 351)
votes, this year he only lost it by 89,
two years hence the elements of con
fusion won't be in it.
Conger ran like a scared coyote,
but when Tom got his second wind,
the ring tailed what is it of the pop
ulist phenomina that circulates be
tween an editor and a who-who took
to the woods.
We are in receipt of Vol. 1, No. 1,
of the Burwell Tribune now on our
desk. It is a newsy paper and the
people of Garfield county can con
gratulate themselves on having a
live republican paper that comes
out fearlessly for prosperity.
The Maria Teresa, ouc of tin*
Spanish cruisers sunk July 3, at San
tiago, and subsequently raised by
constructor Hobson, was started for
the United States last week and en
countered a heavy storm on the way
and went to the bottom of the At
lantic, where she i. lost forever.
The Indian name, fire water, fot
whiskey, baa at last proved to be tbe
right one and poor Lo should be
giveu the honor of calling the turn
many years in advance. During out
little picnic with Spain, I’nde Sam
purchased I.OOu barrels to U9e
in making siuokcb as powder, and
now Japan ban purchased a full train
load of 'Jj curs, from the Peoria, III.
distilleries and shipped it last week,
for liie same purpose.
Sherman county has again goto*
populist hut by a much dearenaed
majority from other late years. Two
years ago this county give liryan
•ids majority, last full it gave Sul
livau, funion, tb« head of the ticket,
a majority of Hill, and this fall tin tr
majority for the head of the ticket
waa I tin. Tilts shows a gradual de
crease that will soou k||n< their ma
jority out entirely The up*tin a
in-mg populists thia fail la one of
ih* marked feature* of the catupatu,
ansi shows plainly that the rural
district* have not found their M ■•*••*
a* they had expected fiom the pret
ty aloft**, and daullug pu t urea held
out to them by the *|i*gf untied » as*

by 89, and Mr. Bcchthold by 121.
The tight has been a severe one and
the populist majority in this county
has received a chilling frost
that it will be liatd for them ever to
recover from. It has been very
materially reduced giving tbo re
publicans much reason to congratu
late themselves, and assuring them
that the sentiment among the people
is changing, and ere many elections
roll around the republicans will a
gain take thuir place in the front
rank. Mr. Nightingale, the county
Attorney elect, is a very capable man
and will make u first cluss ollicer,
something that Sherman county lias
lacked in that office for some years,
While the republican candidate lias
been defeated there is consolation in
the knowledge that the olllco will be
ably filled for the next two years.
Mr. Nightingale has no one to thank
for his election but-himself, us near
ly the combined forces of popu
list leaders in Loup City used their
best endeavors to defeat him, but
the party fealty was strong enough
to carry him through, therefore Mr.
NiUgtingalu can but point bis finger
in their direction and say, thou .Jud
as, and they can console themselves,
if their is any consolation in it, with
the knowledge that their canting by
pocracy has availed them nothing.
They have played the dog in th
manger, but must eat crow in the
end.
