Nebraska, are hereby requested to rsend delegates from their respective townships to meet in convention at Loop City, Nebraska. Monday, Aug. 2Sth. 1905, at 11 o'clock a m. for the purpose of electing delegates to the Republican State convention for the year 1905. to elect a county central committee anti the chairman thereof, and to place in nomination a candidate for county treasurer, county clerk, sheriff, judge. Superintendent, surveyor and coroner. Also to transact such ocher business as may properly come before said convention. The several townships are entitled to representation as follows: the apportionment being based upon the vote cast at the last general election for President Roosevelt, giv ing each township one delegate for every ten votes or major fraction thereof and* one delegate at large: Oak Creek. 3 Logan. 6 Washington. 7 Elm. 4 Webster.6 Loup City.23 Ashton.s Rockville.6 Clay.6 Harrison .10 Scott. 4 Hazard.6 Bristol . 5 — Total.94 It is recommended that no proxies he allowed, and that the delegates present from each of the respective townships be authorized to cast the full vote of their delegation and that the primaries be held at the usual voting place in each township on Saturday. August 26th. 1905. By order of the Republican Central Com mittee. W. R. Mellor, Chairman. R. P. Stark, Secretary. Republican county convention next Monday, Let there be full delegations from every township. And now we know John Wallis a candidate for governor, if we never knew it liefore. The Champion, his home paper, speaks of him as "Farmer Wall ” A. Sutton is a candidate for sheriff of Valley county, and it looks as if Mr. Sutton had a cinch on the Republican nomination, which would land him safely in the office. Our populist triends held their coun ty convention on Tuesday of tins week, and placed the f blowing ticket in the ri.dd: Clerk. C. F. Beuschatisen; treas urer, It. M. Iliddleson; judge, J. A Angier; superintendent, J. F. Nicoson: sheriff, John Tlirailkill; surveyor. E. B Corning, and coroner, Dr. J. W. Jones. The following were elected as delegates to the pop state convention: II. G. Patton, S. S. Polski. I. II. Winchell. L. P Squires. E. B. Hickman, Edward Snyder,C. H. Winteerand E. A. Brown. To the judicial convention will go E. 11. Kittell, H. G. Patton, John Minshuil. John Boecking. Albert Dickinson, H. M. Mathew, Edward Snyder and F. Badura. H.M. Mathew was selected as state committeeman. T. S. Nightin gale w-as chairman and S. S. Polski secretary of the convention. We under stand resolutions tearing the Repub liean party into shreds were adopted We have not the time nor space to comment on the convention's work this week, but will pay our respects later. After this week, the political pot, which lias been simmering for some time, will rapidly get to the boiling point. On Tuesdav of this week the populists met in their county convention and as will lie seen in another column, placed candidates in nomination ter the various offices within the gift of the voters of Sherman county. The demo crats, so far, have not called a county convention, and we doubt they will, preferring to act as a free lance, voting independently and as they choose for the nominees placed before the people by the other parties. The Republicans will hold their couoty convention next Monday and place a list of winners in the field for the various county offices The republican party is now in pos session of a fair majority in Sherman county, and with good nominations and full party vote, cannot fail to win every office named. However, party lines sit lightly upon the average voter, and it behooves the Republicans of Sherman county to make the choicest selections possible and to avoid the least friction They should meet in convention with out discord and select nominees for the various places of trust upon whom all may heartily unite No man should be uominated upon whom any feasible tight may be made, but rather those upon whom all can unite in hearty sup port. Among the list of those already spoken of for the various offices, are strong, good men, win can and will make a successful fight, l.et these be chosen. Let the good of the partv and success be the watchword and we cau win hands down. Don't Die Now. While rooting around in the new ses ion laws one day this week, Judge Howard Thompson ran across a law passed by the late lamented legislature, providing for a more thorough system of gathering statistics in the state con cerning births and deaths and other happenings in which the health depart ments are interested. Under the terms of the law the state board of health is authorized to appoint a local statistical! in each incorporated town and side statisticnns for unincorporated com munities. These officials are expected to keep track of all deaths and births and they are also required to issue a burial certificate to the undertaker in the case of every dea’h. No officer< have vet been appointed in this county, at least nobody appears u> know it if they have. So if you are planning on dying in the near future you had better put it off until the state board makes these app >intme.nts. Your demise might be illegal.—Central City Non pareil.
