JUNKIS, I seal] Secretary of State. Primary Election Returns. The results of the late primary election did not develop a vesy ex tensive vote over the county. By the official count we see there were 270 republican, 112 democratic, 113 popu list and 11 socialist ballots deposited. Sheldon for governor on the repub lican ticket received 222 votes; Dahl inan 13, Shallenberger 23 and Berge24 for the same office on the democratic ballot, and Shallenberger 24 and Berge "6 for governor on the pop ticket. Kinkaid won the congressional nomi nation on the republican ballots by 177, Boss getting 21 and Sibley 35. The senatorial vote in this county gave Culley 166, Clark 70 and Gould 24. but Buffalo gave Gould such a big vote that it gave him a majority in both counties that he landed the nomination, while Deets got the dem and pop nominations for the same plum by 80 and 83. The vote in this county for representative gave Ojen dyk tiie republican nomination by a vote of 136 to McKinnie’s 119; while Brown, with no opposition, captured the pop and dem nominations. The nomina.tion for county attorney on the republican ballots gave Fisher 136 and Starr 117, while Mathew did up E. A. Smith for the pop and dem nominations by a vote of 152 to 61. In the supervisor districts, I. A. Maiefski, populist, was nominated without opposition in No. 1: W. O. Brown, republican, in No. 3, without opposition; C. J. Peters, populist, in No. 5, with no opponent, while in No. 7, E. II. Allen, republican, and F. II. Wyman, populist, received the nomination of their respective parties. Tiie results over the state-wide nominees are yet in part undecided. On tiie republican side, Sheldon for governor, Hopewell for lieutenant governor, Junkin for secretary of state, Brian for state treasurer and Thompson for attorney general, had no opposition for re-nomination, while for auditor Barton seems to be the winner, for land commissioner tiie fight is on between Cowles and Shively, with the former in the lead. Bishop looks an easy winner for state superintendent and Williams seems booked for renomination as railway commissioner. For congress in this district, Kinkaid easily gets the nomi notion from the republicans. In this senatorial district, Gould is an easy winner for the republican nomination. On the democratic side, a merry race is on for governor lietween Datilman, ! Shallenberger and Berge, with pretty sure first purse for Shallenberger. though Cowboy Jim says he will con test with Shallenberger, should the latter show not over 2,000 to the good apparently. Garrett wins the demo cratic nomination for lieutenant governor, Mattes for secretary of state, Price and Luikart nearly a tie for auditor. Fleharty winner for at torney general. Eastman walks awav with land commissioner possibilities and Cowgill is picked to contest for railway commissioner. PRIMARY NOTES: McGuire bests Fitzsimmons for the democratic congressional nomination in the first. Latta easily wins over Howard for democratic contestant in the third congressional district. Hanker G. H. Kinsey of Arcadia won out for the republican senatorial nomination at the primaries. Peter Mortensen. ex-state treasurer, was nominated by the republicans of Ord for representative, over Editor Rood of North Loup. In Ilall county one candidate was defeated for nomination because of his confirmed habit of patronizing the mail order houses. A new ele ment being injected in politics. In the fourth congressional district. Hinshaw, republican, puts it all over Aldrich by more than tw’o to one, while on the democratic side it is close as yet, with Gilbert seemingly the winner. The democratic nomination for con gress in the Big Sixth seems in favor of Judge Wcstover. present judge up in the sandhills, and who with Judge Kinkaid handled the court business in that district from its organization up to the time the latter was elected to congress, and who is yet “in it’’ up there as one of the best jurists in the state. To show the beauties of the new primary law. reference is made to the fight for nomination on the republi can ballot for railway commissioner. In which Aarons, a wholly unknown quantity over the state, came nearly defeating Williams for re-nomination". Aarons was the first name on the ballot while Williams was the last. Probably not one voter in a hundred ever heard of Aarons before the vot ing was on. .AproDos of the late primary elec tion in Sherman county, the returns on the state senatorial candidacy, while they were not strong enough to ; secure the nomination of A. P. Culley, j yet that gentleman feels proud over his vote in this his home county, which endorsed his candidacy by an overwhelming majority over his high est competitor. In conversation with Mr. Culley he wishes to return his heartfelt thanks to those who gave him sucli loyal support and with the assurance that he will always remem- i her most gratefully their confidence j in him as expressed at the primary. Up to yesterday noon, the eighth dry after the primaries, no candidate had so far tiled his expense account with the county clerk. A wager of $10 Tuesday evening on j our streets by a Bryan man that the ! Democratic Billy would carry Ne braska was quickly taken by a Taft rnan. The Bryan man then said lie could have a man here inside of 24 hours who would wager $5,000 that the sage of Fairview would carry Ne braska was as quickly taken by the Taft man, who insisted that lie could not make that amount so easy by any other known method. It now re mains for the Bryan believer to appear w ith the necessary stuff. If Bryan'sdollarcontrjbutionscome in as fast as they have in Iiay county. Missouri, where Democrats are as thick as liiesarounda molasses barrel, lie might have enough to carry him through when lie ruus in 1020. In April one of the Democratic papers at the county seat announced that it would receive dollar contributions from the farmers and urged them to send in their money. Last week the editor announced that up to date lie had received $1 and would add it to his dollar and send it in. There are over 3,000 Democratic voters in that county and only one of them con tributes a dollar on Bryan's call. If that is any criterion -to go bv Brvan will lose out by greater odds than lie did last time he run. The present National campaign seems to have inspired the anarchists to old time frenzy. At a mass meet ing of unemployed at the Cooper In stitute in New York City on Labor Day, the meeting was turned into an anarchist riot, red rag speeches being made by leading anarchists, resulting in the arrest of two of the most noted and the breaking up of the murderous gang of cut-throat crea tures. Tills is tlie outcome of the un lawful so-called “free” speech ideas of the numerous tail-end leaders against the present courts of justice and the government of today. Such men as Ilearst, Debs and" others should be muzzled before their in flammatory utterances result in in citing mob rule in the place of law and order. The democratic and populist coun ty central committees were organized last Saturday according to law as follows: Democrat: Oak Creek, Wm. Lewandowski: Logan, W. R. McCul lough: Washington, A ndrew A nderson; Elm. Andrew Coppersmith: W'et>ster, L. P. Squires: Loup City, Louis Rein: Ashton, S. S.’Polski: Rockville, Chris Neilson;Clay, F. G.

Slote; Scott, Frank Wyman, Hazard, Thos. Dona lioe; Bristol, E. A, Snyder. Last Saturday, according to ttie new primary law, was the time for the organization of the new county central committees. As we under stand it, the law reads that eacli party candidates shall meet at the office of the secretary of the old coun ty central committee and re-organize. However, that seems not to have been so in the case of the republican, W\ O. Brown, one of the republican candidates being present at the office of Secretary Starr for that purpose, while at the same time, Bill Fisher, candidate for county attorney on the republican ticket, did not appear but on the contrary took, tlie bull by th? horns and organized tlie new central committee all by his own lonesome at the Gibson-Fisher office, ignoring Messrs. W. O. Brown and E. II. Allen, the only two other candidates who, according to law, have the right, in conjunction with the candidate for county attorney, to select tlie new county central committee. Mr. Fisher has not favored the North western with the list of his committee.

There are certain things that come naturally by descent, and reforms come by descent You cannot convey a reform by will. The president has tried to bequeath certain re forms to the republican candidate, but I am the next of blood in the reform business and they come to me. In fact. 1 think I could make it stronger than that. If a man dies and leaves no children the property goes back to his parents, and. so far as reforms are con cerned. the republican party has died without heirs, and the reforms go back to the one from whom the republican party got the reforms — From W. J. Bryan's Address at Salem. Ill . August 26. lBuS. Mr. Bryan’s determination to make a fight for a share in the estate of a man who is no kin to him naturally recalls a somewhat celebrated case tried some years ago. in which Mr. Bryan made a fight to share in the proceeds of an estate, although his name was not mentioned in the will. In that case Mr. Bryan did not claim to be an heir, except on the ground that lie had been promised something and lie was expectant enough to carry his case into courts, where he was finally defeated. The record in the Bennett will case is complete. The will was drawn by W. J. Bryan himself at Lincoln, Neb., where Mr. Bennett, a resident of Counecticut, was his guest. To Mrs. Bennett the will bequeathed $50,000 for “purposes set forth in a sealed letter’’ which accompanied the will. The letter bore this address: Mrs. P. S. Bennett: To be read only by Mrs. Bennett and by her alone, after iny death.—P. S. Bennett. It was developed later in court that the sealed letter directed Mrs. Ben net to (rive Mr. Bryan 850,000 after Mr. Bennett's death, and she was specifically enjoined to’observe the strictest secrecy about the transaction It has never been explained why Mr. Bryan, in drawing the will, should have omitted his own name or sur rounded the deal with an air of melodramatic secrecy, particularly as he has always avowedly favored pub licity in all money transactions. Per haps his native modesty Jed him to seek to evade the advertisement that would naturally follow his coming in such a liberal share of a mere friend's estate. However, when it came to the question of publicity or the loss of the 850,000, Mr. Bryan decided for pub licity and carried the case into the courts. After a lenghty hearing, the court held “that neither said envelope nor letter, nor said typewritten docu ment be approved or allowed as part of said will.” With an amount equal to a year’s salary of the president of the United States at stake, Mr. Bryan appealed the case to the higher courts only to be beaten at every stage of the legal tight. Mr. Bryan is not easily dismayed by defeats, either in the courts or in poli tics, and so lie is going to make an other tight to break the Roosevelt will for the purpose of sharing a poli tical estate in the accumulation of which he has had no part, and even though his name was not mentioned in the list of bequests. The estate, however, is an exceedingly large one and Mr. Bryan is socialistic enough to think he should have his share of any good things in sight. Ills claim will, of course, be contested, and he may as well prepare to have it re jected by the court of public opinion which will pass on his case on Tues day, November 3, 1908.—Omaha Bee. The elevators in LoupCity are pay ing Omaha prices for corn. Tills is mighty good for the farmer but how is it with the elevator men? It re minds one of the story of the man who got down on all fours to train a bull pup. In the melee the pup got a good hold on the old man’s nose, who howled to his son to take him off. But the son, with admiration for the situation yelled “I know it’s pretty tough, dad; but remember it’s the making of the pup.” The New Ifhe piost du fable apd eas iest adjusted drill op the piapket.

A new feature in the life of the public school was inaugurated by Supt. Jas. O’Connell last Monday morning. In response to a general invitation and announcement teachers pupils and patrons gathered on the school campus around the front entranceof the building where formal opening exercises were held and the following progam carried out. An Invocation was offered by Rev. J. O. Ilawk of the M. E. church, after which Rev. L. C. McEwen of the Presbyterian church delivered a short address emphasizing the relation Uiat the parents, pupils and teachers sus tain to the Institution and the necessity of hearty co-operation on ttie part of each as an essential in the accomplishment of the best work. Following the address came a selec tion by Mrs. McCray, the raising and saluting of the flag, and the benedic tion by Ilev. D. W. James of the Baptist church. Supt. O’Connell has tiie work well in hand and the auspicious opening gives promise of a successful school year. Grave reportsof a proposed attempt to murder Wm. H. Taft, republican presidential candidate, in the near future, has gained the ears of the authorities. The hellish utterances of certain political leaders is re sponsible for such plots and a curb should be placed on the mouths of the Debe-Hearst kind of fellows. S. A |V SEPTJ3& OCT3RD 1908.
