KINK AID NOMI NATE D On llic One Hundredth and “eventy Nuventli ltallot Tlie Sixth district republican con vention wound up early Friday eve ning by the nomination of Judge M. P. Kinkaidof O’Neil on the 177th ballot. The result was brought about by securing the votes of Paw son and Buffalo counties, which added to Judge Kinkaid’s solid vole of 79 made enough votes to nominate. The other counties did not get into the band wagon, al though all voted to make the nomi nation unanimous. The contest lasted tor two days. On Thursday 100 votes were taken without lesult and on Friday morn ing it became apparent that it would take a united effort of the following of all other candidates to defeat Kinkaid. The Bieeman, Grimes, Cady and Darr votes then consoli dated and tried to make Grimes. Falling in this they tried each of the other candidates in turn. It need ed the Currie forces to do the busi ness but they could not be shaken. The determination to make Kiu kaid eauie during a 40 minute recess, which was taken just after three o’clock. Buffalo and Dawson held a caucus and decided to end the tight. They acted just in time to prevent the Currie forces from going to pieces and making Grimes. 1 his had been promised, but was put otl to long. The tinal vote was one of enthusiasm and speeches were made by Kinkaid Currie, Bieeman, Grimes, Cady, Darr, and Wall. The new central committee held a short meeting after the convention and Kinkaid was authorized to name the chairman. Judge Wall was selected as con gressional committeeman for this eouuty.__ G. M. Lambertson, one of tbe leading lawyers of Lincoln Nebras ka died in Chicago Sunday morning at the Palmer house where he and Mrs. Lambertson were stopping. The news of his death was received here with a shock as many of our readers had often met and shook hands with him and knew him only as one of the ablest lawyers in tbe state aud a man of honor and trust. He was fifty-two years old at time ot deatb. In December, 1878, Mr. Lambertson was appointed by Pres ident Hayes United States district attorney far the state of Nebraska, which position he held with distin guished ability tor eight years and two months, having been re appoint ed by President Arthur. At the ex piration of his second term of office, in February, 1887, President Cleve land tendered him a temporary re appointment, wtiich he decliueii. Since that date lie served for a time as first assislcnt secretary of the treasury having been appointed by President Harrison. After retiring from public life Mr. Lambertson has been actively engaged in the practice of law in Lincoln. J. M. Snyder of Virdurette wnf in the city Saturday. He came over from North Loup and speaks of tin growing crops along the way as br - ing the finest he has seen for years He says that he saw many hundreds of tons of alfalfa in stacks, the first cutting of the season, and thinks that if the farmers of Sher man county would get to raising b more extensively that we would liavi one of the most prosperous countries the sun ever shown upon. In this Mr. Snyder is right. Those who aie raising alfalfa have been realiz iug from £20. to £25 per acre from a single seasons harvest. With a reasonably good stand and auyttin like a favorable season, three ou - tings can he made in one season and even iu dry weather a splendid yield is assured Every farmer in Sher man county should have an ullalta field.

The name of our nest governor will be Mtckej. The light on governor was one of the largest ever made in the history of republi- j can politics in the state and the re suit was very satisfactory to the delegates from every part of the state, and ail of his opponauts pledged their unqualified support to the choice of the convention. Mr. Mortensen, of Valiev Count) was nomiuated on the first ballot and the announcement of the vote taken was hailed with shouts of ap proval from every part of the audi torium. His presence in the cam paign had given him prestagu that w;.s hard to overcome. Mr. Mor tensen is one of the best, candidates it has been the good fortune of the republicans of this state to place up on the ticket and his election is sure and certain. The balance of the ticket with the exception of I.ieuten aut Governor was made up of the present incumbants in office. K A B is trying to get up a little J enthusiasm among the pop commit- \ icemen.
