B. Sc M Wreck >ear C ni$t»ck
The west Iwund B. & M. passenger
train was wreched last evening at the
big curve between Comstock and Sar
gent by the spreading of rails. The
engine passed safely over, but the two
coaches left the track, one thrown
across the track, the other being
hung some distance from the road
bed. Fortunately no one was killed
or even seriously Injured. We under
stand Frank Brewer was one of the
passengers. The wrecking train went
up to the scene early this morning
and will have the road opened again
in a few hours..
By error, last week's Nobthwkst
kbn was dated “April 3,” instead of
“May 3.’’ No excuse therefor, except
carelessness.
Ex-State Auditor J. H. Cornell is
dying at ids home in Verdon, this
state, of acute paralysis. He was the
last populist state auditor.
Elsewhere in this issue will tie
found the "Articles of Incorporation’’
of the Farmers’ Elevator Association
of Loup City and Sherman county.
Also notice of annual election oi
officers of the association.
Brer. Brown is still busy bringing
out proposed candidates on the re
publican ticket. As he only men
tioned one for the county attorney
ship. it will be supposed lie has not
had his ear close to the ground.
Again lias a Loup City citizen beer
honored. Tiiis time it is J. S. Pedlei
who was elected Patron of the Grand
Chapter O. E. S. at Lincoln last
week. Carry the news to his not
very formidable enemy, the “would
be yellow.”
As a little out of the usual. th<
democrats of Nebraska this year pro
po^ to lead, in the matter of holding
their state convention, rather tliar
follow, as they have named Aug. 15
as their date^about a week prior tc
to.- republican state convention.
We hear it whispered that tht
democrats of Sherman county pm
pose to have a fair division of offices
tiiis fall and rather incline to namt
the candidate for representative
themselves, allowing their populjsl
brethren to go after the count}
attorneyship, or vice versa,
E. Rosewater is now an avowee
candidate for the U. S. senate, his
son. Victor Rosewater, making the
announcement in last Monday’s Hail}
Bee. Tills means that Norris Browi
will have to go some to head off t
Rosewater boom tiiat seems to be
gathering with the force and rapiditj
of a modern tornado.
All Is not serene among the opposen
of republicanism in Nebraska. Geo
W. Berge. populist, wants another g(
at the governorship, while the demo
cratic brethren want to sidetraci
George with the attorney generaishi]
and name the man for chief rule:
themselves. George says “nix’
weeden.” or words to that effect, anc
says with him it will be nominatior
fqr governor or nothing. So, there.
As Bro. Brown is hearing of sup
posed republican candidates for office
lie will of course have no objection U
Tub Nobthwesthbn mentioning
some spoken of on his side of ti«
house. As a starter, we this weei
mention the name of our honorabli
contemporary. Bro. A. E. Brown him
self, whom we have heard spoken o
in connection with the office of Rep
resentative in the coming state legis
lature. Now the opposition could gi
further to find a man and not be hal
so happy in their selection, ant
■•Representative Brown of Sherman"
would not sound so bad.
A Loup City editor of a populis
paper resorted to the meanest trie!
on record to get his wife to dig u]
the garden tins spring. He went ou
with a spade and a hoe and afte
searching around for a while he wen
to tiie house to wash the dirt off ;
dime and a quarter. He had strucl
ft rich he said. Back to the gardei
lm went whistling “Sweet Marie.'
Directly he came again, this tim
allowing another quarter and remarkei
that lie could afford to take a naf
he had made enough for one day anv
how. When he awoke, his wife ha
the wliole plot dug up. but she ha
not found a “scent.” She doesn’t ye
know the mine was salted.
