The Republican couuty conven tion was held in Society b»ll, in ibis city Tuesday and was attended with a il !e,. ion front every township in thi' rouMA. It was called to order by chair man W H. Moll or, who after reading the call - luted that he had taken it upon i ,tire.t to Dame ihe temporary cb> m i a: t accordingly presented the name of A. all as sueh presiding officer. Mr. Wall ( nine f rward and gave thank for the recognition and then uiaih' an iauiroiuptu address that started the convention oflf with en thiisiasi.. and would nave furnished a tine subject tor it short hand re porter Lad we been fortunate enough to have had mti on the ground. The first thing in order was to elect a temporary secretary, and on motion John Mathewson, ot Clay township was installed, presumably because of his efficiency and sturling wortti as a republican worker. The chair then on motion was in structed to name the several com mitteus which he did as follows. On Credentials:—S. H CoDger, j and T. C. Chamberlain. Order of Business. Alvin Clark, Joseph Di id jw and M H M : id. I’ermanent Organization. Geo. E. Bcuschoter, W. M. Smelser and Carslen Truelsen. After a recess of about fifteen minutes the convention re-convened and tbe cornmitees maue me ioiiow iog reports: That tbe temporary organization be made permanent; that tbe order of business be to nom inate first a county attorney, second a eaididate fur representative and third, a chairman of the count) central committee. The committee on credentials reported the following named persons entitled to seats m the convention: Loup CKy Twp. W. s Waite, W. U Mellow G. E Hotchkln, A Wall. J. I Depew, W T. Owen W. Moon, D D.

Itoltnes. S'-ott l ap. John Groenbalgh and E P CuillplH'lt After bearing ami adopting these reports the convention proceeded tc work ns per order of business. The names <»f [. S. Pedler and W. .1 Fisher were presented to tin convention ns i andblafes for count] attorney. After a little scoring two heats were mn in which Pedlti wou out both times. Joe has tw< tine ra1 e horses but we believe nor X.. that he i an make better tunc than eitli r one of iht m He uia le lhe lu st time on record and those who were not already in the band wagon made a grab for it as he neared the home stretch. We did not catch the ex act time made in this race but we understood the secretary to say something that Hounded like “a mile a minute." At this junction there were wild hurrahs fur Pedler, and did uot cease until he made his appearance on the platform. He thanked thu conven tion, and in a short address assured all present that he would do his full share towards btiriging about success for the republican party in t Sherman couut \. For representative the raaies of Alvin Clark of Logan; K. G. Paige, of Hockvilie; Geo. Holmes of Bristol; Cbas. Reidel of Loup City and A. M Sheppard of Harrison were boriight out. Nine ballots were takeu an 1 fm a tune the chances f r i success were about equal The ballot j iug started out with Mr. Ileidel a lit tli iu the lead with J>> votes and he continued to gain until he reached the high mark of Bt> when it became apparent that the number necessary for a choice m!d not be reactnd. Then matters took a turn and the wave drifted towards Clurk and he was safely landed with a handsome m tjority over all on the ninth ballot. The choice is a splendid one. Mr, ; Clark is a gentleman and a scholar, lie will poll a very heavy vote as his | recognized ability and special fit ness tor the position will make hun popular with all who make hu ac quaintance. The question of electing a elair- ! uiuii wns now to be considered and I it was at this point that Judge Wall slid down off the chair and look the Hour. The tnucbine had been well greased and the sickle sharpened be fore hand. Mr. .'lead, a member of the committee on order of business anil the only delegate to the conven tion by proxy, had, to all appear ances purposely inserted the words, “and third, that a chairman of the county central committee be elected.” Wall made a master plea in tfie in icrest of sympathy for Mellor, at d Mead followed with ttie explanation that he did’nt mean to do it, or words to that eHeet. All this was done J for the purpose of heading off what they feared would he a disastrous , uprising aganst Mellor who has, since , our former convention been illegally i ofliciating. Mellor tendered his ; resignation but Wall would nt have | it that way and pressed his previous j motion, which was to “eliminate the clause to elect a chairman." There j being no opposition to the scheme 1 the machine run as light as a ball j bearing bycicle, after which the con- j vention adjourned sine die, aud Mr. Mellor is thus privelaged to con tinuo to throw his patronage to the pop papers and at the same time to be bigb-mo-gull over the Rep ublican politics of Sherman coun-* tv. Yes, “the I s have it, and it is so ordered. What will he the next pleasure of the convention?” In another column you will find a notice and invitation to attend a lawn social to be given, at tue home of Mr :tud Mrs. W. S. Waite, and under the auspices of the Baptist church organization. Our comment on this affair would be that all who can should licit) »o make ibis social as plea * an t and profitable n« possi ble. This church has labored hard to lift the burden of debt which has hung over it for some time. Its members have done nobh They have carried on the good work with but verv little -mside help They have built a church on a rock found ation that is a credit and pride to llie eitv The debt lias now become of small proportion and thier great disire is to entirely eliminate it in this year of prosperity and plenty. All through the long years of drouth and depression they have not only kept services ate I Sabbath school up to a verv bign standing hut as we have said, greatly reduced this debt. A few more efforts and thier f imifst hopes will be realized. Let us all go to the social. DIVIDI-. HAPKNIXiS Ralph Throukiiioi’om is on the siik list this week M: H.
