The little Republics in South Amc
ru*a, are getting ready to eat each
other up from present outlook.
The battleship Iowa, is on its wav
down the Pacific to the Isthmus, to
see that Old Glory is kept at the
proper elevation.
A large passenger steamer, the
Island, struck a submerged ice berg
in the Lynn canal, up in Alaskan
waters last Saturday morning and
sunk in 23 fathoms of water. La'
est reports claim about sixty five
casualties.
General Manager Dickinson of the
‘ U. P. system, lias issued a general
order to the etfect that habitual
drinking and frequenting places
where intoxicants are sold, will be
considered sufficient, grounds for dis
missal from the service of that road.
The Republican county conven
tion was held in this city Wednes
day, and was organized by electing
Dr. H. R. Calmer of Litchfield for
chairman and (1. II. Gibson of Loup
City, secretary. The regular routine
business was taken up and after the
permanent organization wa affected
the delegates to the state convention
were elected as follows: W. R.
Metier, C. J. Tracy, A. Wall, R. J.
Nightingale, A. li. Cotter and Theo.
Ojcndyk. A, Wall was elected
chairman of the County Central Com
mittee, after which the convention
took a recess to Sept , 17, at which
tt ne a full set of county officers will
be nominated.
The European governments gener
ally are exercising their sympathies
for the wellfure of the little South
American Republics to a highly ab
normal extent since there seems to be
a prospect of an extensive row down
there. France is offering gratis
advise in the way of off hand sympa
thetic suggestions and sliding in a
war vessel or two to make it bind
ing, while other countries are east
ing covetous glances in that •direc
tion, but the order from Washington
the other day, directing the North
At’antie squadron to precede at
once to Hampton Roads for general
evolutions, will no doubt, be heard
at every government center in the
( lit world, and be a gentle reminder
that the Monroe doctrine is still in
full force and effect.
The next charge to be hatched op
against Admiral Schley is said to b«
that he was drunk at llie battle of
Santiago. He must have used the
same brand of whiskey Grant did as
it had the same effect on the enemy.
These petty chi'dish charges will do
the Admiral no harm, and shows
the real animus of the whole affair.
It does more, it shows the contempt
able lengths some people will go to
gain a point or destroy their betters.
Schley done what the people expect
ed him and is the simon pure hero of
Santiago, and the more spleen is ex
hibited over the matter the more the
tribunal of the < ornmon people will
exonerate him for petty breaches of
the rules of the navy, as long as his
disregard of orders proved to be the
right thing.

yon a line lor ti t purpose of a few
words about this great country, Ca
nada I have been four days out
since I left L up City. This is a
beautiful city and is eight mlts
across. I haw had ■» look ail over
it an! my ride cost me nothing. The
people here seem o boa very intel
ligent quiet class of eit /e .s 1 will,
at toother time give you a detailed
account of my trip, stiowing w he re
we found the best and worst crops,
drouth, stock, laud and climate. \Y<
have a nice party when we all get to
getber. One from Farwell, some
from St Paul, and Grand Island,
and others from south, west and
easf, in all about twenty of us No
hraskans. Ah express their deep
regret that Mr. Culler was not able
to accompany us.
We did not get away here this
morning on Recount of a press of
business and the failure to appear of
a gentleman who was to attend to it,
and as I had a little time at the Im
perial Hank L will write a little more.
The weather is nice, cloudy today.
It rained this morning and the streets
arc some muddy, but as they are
well paved they are not had.
Aug. !Uli—Our friend Spears call
ed for us to go over where the other
boys was, I did not have time tojlln
ish my letter. 'Yu were invited to
take a ride, so 1 will try and finish.
1 am trying to write while the train
is running at full speed. To make
it short, we are in a poor part now
compared with what wo have seen,
yet if l had some of our Nebraska
cattle here they would laugh
I am making a much longer trip
of it than I expected when I started
I expect when complete my ramb
lings will have covered at least 1,000
miles, as we are traveling well over
the country from east to west.
Calgary, Alta. Aug. 12:—This is a
wide spread town, a very nice place
and extremely quiet I he people
are not a polite class but all seem t<
have great respect for themselves
and are quite sociable wneii y ou one*
get them interested. We left Cal
garv, Monday morning at ten loi
Edmonton. Stopped oft two days
at Olds, and am now at Lacomb, and
will he here a day or two, but d<
not like it as well bore as in some
parts of Canada. Alberta is a great
cattle region, while A«inabo!a and
Manitoba are farming districts and
between the two I will explain when
I have more time and now will simp
ly *av, it is a wonderful country,
and I am giving it a thorough can
vas so as 1 o know what the country
is like. Yours respectful)’

Thomas Nelson did for Virginia
what Robert Morris did for th ■ nation
—saved the state from hand.• :pu-y by
devoting to her use his large fortune,
says a writer in Lippincot;. When : i
was in command of the state militia at
Yorktown the exigencies of the
turn seemed to require the des . on
1 of a certain large and imposing build
ing in the place. It. is sad to know
that this gadant Virginia congress
man and governor was so embarrassed
by the loans that he bad made to his
state to pay its regiments w ion there
was no money in the treasury, that
in his last remaining days his remain
ing property was sold to pa- i s ■ !
He was but 51 when he died, worn out
by anxieties and years of ill-health.

The handkerchief was first popular

Jo ephine, who had irregular and black
teeth, and, to conceal them, held her
lace handkerchief before her mouth
whenever she laughed.

Captain A. F. Eneas, the discoverer
of oil in Beaumont, Tex., who is said
to be worth $40,000,000, was practically

The improvement in the dry goods
trade continues, and the market grows
stronger every day. says the Wall
Street Journal. The condition of the
cotton market supports higher prices
for goods. The export, demand is in
creasing. and the supply of coar-e
goods desirable for China Is said to tie
practically cleaned out. For this rea
son mills that changed eight or nine
months ago from coarse to fine yarn
cloths are about to return to the pro
ductfon of coarse goods. This will he'p
the market, for li<rhf weight goods.
