JUDGE WALL FOR SENATOR Kearney Hub: In the republican senatorial convention Tuesday after noon tbe committee on resolutions reported the following, which were unanimously adopted: We the re publicans of the Sixteenth senator ial district in convention assembled, point with pride to the record and achievements of the present nation al administration, and pledge our selves anew to the carrying forward of *its principles at every opportu nity. We likewise commend the present administration of the state of Nebraska and take a pride in say iug that it has been wise, safe, and.economical and just. We call attention to tbe revenue law enacted by the republican legislature as a step towards the more equal distri bution of the “burdens of taxation,” favoring any amendment tending to make it still more just and effective and with provision for a township board of equalization, with right of appeal to the county board. We commend our senators and repre sentatives in tbe legislature for their successful efforts in the interest of education in Western Nebraska anu particularly in securing astablish ment aud location of the Western normal school. After the adoption of the resolutions, Hon Aaron Wall of Sherman county, was renominat ed for senator by acclamation. Sen ator Wall spoke briefly in accepting the nomination, heartily thanking the convention for its manifesta tion of approval of his course in the past and confidence in his future ac tions. C. H. Gregg of Buffalo county, and Dr. S. A. Main, of ISner man county, were named as sena torial committeemen, the former as chairman. They weie given power to fill anv vacancies. a/ Betting in New York City is two to one on Roo9evelt. A gentleman who travels exten ively over the west, says Missouri will give Roosevelt 40,000 majority. Now that all political parties have had their national conventions, we may expect the campaign to begin in earnest. Here’s a prediction: A vote of the democrats of this state alone would carry Nebraska for Roosevelt. Believe it? If Nominee Parker looks like all the published pictures of him, he must be a sort of composite num ber. Anyway, be will be a back number after election. The Chicago Chronicle is the first great democratic daily to bolt tbe Parker ticket. It does not like the wishy-washy action of that party on their platform. The paper will sup port Roosevelt. Bryan says he will support Par ker, but every w ord he utters gives good reason for his followers not doing likewise. Bryan’s vote may go to Parker but his influence will be the other way. As .Judge Parker was allowed to write the democratic plank on the subject of money, why didn’t they let his ruomrg mate, Millionaire Banker and Railroad President Da vis, wrrite the plank on trusts and combines? Senator Davis, toe democratic vice presidential candidate, is Steph en B. Elkins’ father-in-law, but El kins doesn’t propose to let the old gian carry West Virginia, if he is bis wife’s relation. Stephen is in 3 a tight bn*. Maybe there will be no fusion in Nebraska this year, as claimed by the populist head push, but why did the democrats and populists fix theii state conventions for the same place 1 and date—Lincoln, Aug. 10? Fun ny coincident, ain’t it? Couldn't Have Been an Editor.] It is astonishing how quickly young America catches on these j days, and astonishing things happen. | The following aptly illustrated both 1 propositions. The night before the | Fourth there was quite a crowd in Loup City and the hotel accommo- j dations were taxed to their limit, j and it was necessarv for a rotund, jolly traveling man from Ravenna, who was doing that country, to stay j all nignt in the city. He wa§ as signed to a room containing two beds, and, retiring, soon fell into a j tranquil slumber known only to those with a clear conscience. Awakening about daylight, lie look ed across to the other bed and saw that it was occupied by a young lady. Like the real nice mao he is he turned Over wish his face toward the wall and again went to sleep. About an hour later he again awoke and discovered that the lady had arose and was making her toilet, | and again he summoned sleep and found it. The writer had an intro duction to this man the next day and listened in open-mouthed won der at the recital of this story, after whi<?h we offered the man a cigar which he refused with the statement that he neither smoked, chewed, drank nor used profane language. Then he excused himself saying that he would have to hurry to catch the train to Ashton where he would take a team and drive out six or eight miles. A ten-year-old boy who bad heard the whole conver sation got into the game at this junc ture with “Mister you won’t need a ' team—you can fly. And the scribe promptly fainted. Next day we asked about the man and found that he bore an excellent reputation, and it was a fact that lie neither used tobacco nor booze nor bad language, ; and, of course, had to take the bal* ; ance of his statement as a fact also. But think of it!—aod he a traveling man too!! Every time we think of it we throw a fit. And the kid— w asn't he an apt pupil in the school of human nature?—IJurwell Trib j une. . —.—■ ■ .. Mr. Joe Klein, state agent of the Equitable Insurance Co. of New York, has been in town during the week and while here paid the claim against his company occasioned by the death of our late townsman, I)r. Odendahl. Mr. Klein informs us that during the year 1904 the Equitable paid nearly 835,000, 000 in death claims and that over 94 per cent of its claims were paid within one dav of proof of death, which is a most excellent recommendation for the company tlrat is said to be the greatest financial organization in the world. Upon receipt of the check in payment of the claim mentioned, Mr. Klein re ceived from Mrs. Odendahl, the bene ficiary, the following letter: Dear Sir: I have this day received a check for the sum of $1002.29, in settle ment of the life insurance policy with the Equitable Life Assurance Society of New York on the life of my late hus ; band. I am surprised and pleased with the speed in which this claim is settled, proofs ol death being furnished on July 1st and check is dated July 11th.
