Kd. and Fnk Republicans Hopeless ly Split At Lincoln Tuesday the republican state contention split in two pieces, the Loose veil men doing the steam roiling and Ute Taftites withdrawing and ivoiding a rump convention in the Lincoln hotel. The action of Tues day's republican state convention, or conventions as it turned out to be, can only terminate in a bitter cam paign between Uie Taft and Loose veil factions, and the result very possibly the same as mentioned in the bible tix: **A house divided against itself.''etc. Much bitterness resulted and judging t»y Uie reports in the dahie»of the day's proceedings, the Taft followers in tlie state will do by Uie candidates favoring Teddy as the Teddy ites ha»e already sworn to do to the republican national ticket. We believe Gov. Aldrich did serious harm to his candidacy by allowing himself to be elected as presiding officer of the convention, knowing as he did the temper of the convention and his acknowledged stand for Boose veil against the national repub lican nominees By his action in ■etung into the forefront, when po litical wisdom would have advised his remaining in the background, he nuH know Uiat tie has lost to a large eitent li e vote, sympathy and sup port of republicans who propose star .ding by ibe nominees of the re publican national convention. It is too early in the day. and too closely following on the heels of the ■tale convention to analyze the dis astrous results to tiie republican party in Nebraska by iu doings. It would seem that some compromise could have been effected, but it is too late now to cry oier spilt milk. The medicine lias been mixed, and how ever bitter will have to be swallowed. All we can say is tiiat it is a blankety blank shame that the republicans have no more sense than to play into the 1 >ands of the common enemy. Kavenna Is interested in Uie propo sition of being on the Canada to Gulf line, or the extension of the Kearney and Bntoit railroad. The question seems to be settled that the road will ■»i» Loup City one of iu points, and _ Ravenna would be practically in line between Loup City and Kearney.— Llaoaia Trade Review. Since the republican state conven tion, the broadening of the faces of our democratic friends is as marked as the renewed growth of Sherman county corn fields since the recent rains. Confound the democrats'. Two car loads, thirty-five head of Nebraska cattie sold in south Omaha day before yesterday for $4,770.06, or a little more than $136 per head. This was $0.67 per hundred weight, a new high record for this market. Peanut butter a fair subutitute for meat, can be bought for about twelve cents a pound. As so many have made inquiries as to the origin of the term “Bull Moose” as applied to Roosevelt’s pro posed new party, we believe the term was coined by Teddy himself. As the story goes, when the steam roller was smashing his candidacy at Chicago, some one asked him how he felt. “Fine as a bull moose,” the ex president is said to have aptly re plied. The Bryan steam roller was so carefully oiled and so expertly en gineered at the democratic state con vention at Grand Island Tuesday that the Dahl man crowd was crushed out of all semblance of factional form. And wonders of wonders; Little Giant Thompson was finally elected to something. He was made chairman of the convention. On the seventh page of the North western will be found the five con stitutional amendments to be voted upon this coming fall election. These are to run for thirteen consecutive weeks prior to the election and this paper will publish the entire time re quired by law. Our readers should digest each one thoroughly so as to be perfectly conversant with the pro visions of each that he may vote in telligently on the same. We received a pleasant call last Thursday from Editor Mel Gordon, who has just started a new paper at Sargent, the News, publishing the first issue last week. Bro. Gordon is a printer as well as editor, going to Sargent from Seward, and thoroughly understands all branches of the busi ness. Ills first issue is a neat, clean looking sheet, and very attractive editorially and typographically. We exchange with pleasure.

Alien Property Holders. The law of the land respects the right of citizen and alien alike to have and to hold property. The alien res ident in the United States may dis pose of his property by will with the same feeling of security as the Ameri can. This is equally true of the alien who has taken steps to make himself a citizen of the country.
