After all, Is the "State of Nemaha"
going to claim the governor and con

Seward Reporter.
We do not claim any office. But
being voters and citizens of the State
of Nebraska, the friends of Mr. Dai
ly and Mr. Majors claim tho right to
present their names before the conven
tion, even if they are of Nemaha
county. If thecouvention recognizes
these gentlemen as tho ones they
want, they will be nominated ; if not
they will be defeated, but we hope
the ban of condemnation will not be
because they happen to be citizens of
Nemaha. We have no candidate
that we would force upon the people.
The Nebraska City Press referring

Litefary Notes, Kearney : The
State Normal School, at Peru, Is in a
most encouraging conditon. Nearly
all the rooms In the building Have
been engaged, for tho coming term.
Two classes were graduated this year,
one in the higher course, and one
(thirty students) in the elementary.
Mr. Curry, the Principal, knows the
proper work of a Normal School, and
it is understood that the iustitute is
well officered in each an all of the de
partments. The Plattsmouth Herald-says:
"They are making calculations for 150
cars per day over the B. d M. as soon
as the grain season fairly opens."

the grain away.

Death of Congressman Welch.
A gloom was cast over the State of
Nebraska last week, when the tele
graph announced the death of Hon.
Frank Welch. He had been quite
unwell since his return home from
Washington, but was improving, and
had driveu over to the neighboring
town of Neleigh. While there he
was attacked by paralysis, and died
within a few minutes after being
strickeujdowu. The following brief
sketch of his life and public services,
by the State Journal, we indorse and
give it a place iu our columns :
Mr. Welch was born in Augusta,
Maine, iu 1835, but his family remov
ed to Boston in his childhood, and ho
was educated in that city. Adopting
the profession of engineering, he
came west in 1857 or 1S58, toatsist in
running the lino of a projected rail
road across Iowa, the terminus- of
wh'ch was to be a point on the east
bank of the Missouri, opposite the
pieaeut situ ot Decatur, Nebraska.
While engaged iu this work, the pro
ject of building the Union Pacific
Railroad took bhupe, and the opinion
prevuiled in engineering circled that
the opposition to the terminus of the
proposed Iowa road would be the
bturtiug point of the great traus-cou-tiuenlal
line. Mr. Welch resigned
hia position in the engineer corps, in
vested what capital he had in Deca
tur, and, in company with Mr. Frank
Stevens, opened out iu the mercantile
business in the place that was then
supposed to be waiting terminal honors
to become the metropolis of tho trans
Missouri country. In 1SG3 he mar
ried iu Boston, Elizabeth Butts, of
Hudson, New York, a sister of Mrs.
J. D. Monell, of this city. Shortly
after, his firm built a flouring mill
and branched out in business that
eventually became disastrous. In the
meantime, a9 an earnest Republican,
Mr. Welch represented his section iu
the Territorial and State Legislatures,
and was President of the Senate in
1S66, that elected the lirst Senalors.
Gen. Thayer and Hon. T. W. Tipton ,
who were seated on the final admis
sion of theState in '67.
In 1S71, having gone out of the mer
cantile and milling business, he was
appointed Register of the Laud Of
fice at West Point, which was after
ward removed to Norfolk. Madison
County, and he held the office till '7G.
In the fall of '76 he was put forward
by hia friends as a candidate for Con
gress before the Republican State
Convention, and it Ib well known
with what enthusiasm his candidacy
was pressed by his old friends and
neighbors ofNortb Nebraska, and es
pecially by the Republicans of the
counties in which he had lived, in
Burt, Cuming, and Madison Counties.
Ho was nominated after a spirited
contest, and, elected by the customary
overwhelming majority the Republi
cans of the State give their ticket.
He took his seat in the prime of
manhoorTand strength, and it is an
open secret, that no man ever repre
sented our State with more industry,
faithfulnes, and energy than did he.
Representing a new State, when it
was almost impossible to keep the
Federal departments up to the rapid
increase of population, and the conse
quent demands upon the attention of
the Federal authoritiesand upon Con
gress for new legislation, the drafts
upon his time aud strength were in
creased, while his colleagues acted for
small areas of from three to half a
dozen counties, beiugseltled and sup
plied with everything in the way of
post-offices, post-roads, public build
ings, die, that they needed, and a
population of 139.000, Mr. Welch had
to look after, in a large body controll
ed by hln political opponents, the in
terests of a State larger than all New
England, with new needs almost ev
ery day, and a population of 300,000.
About a year ago, after the close of
his first Session, he paid the first pen
alty of overwork in a stroke of para
lysis, which prostrated him at Oma
ha, and impaired his health for some
time. But he returned to his labor in
October, and refused to spare hmself
notwithstanding this warning. On
his return home in July last, his
changed appearance was very .notice
able to all his acquaintances, and giv
ing hi Intimate friendB much anxi
ety. Still the news of his death was
wholly unexpected, a9 he seemed to
r.ecuperate In the health-giving air of
hi old home.
Mr. Welch was a man of great so
cial gifts, and of untiring energy.
Perhaps no man In theState has made
more warm friends, and, as a natural
sequence, he evoked, as a politician,
much bit terand violent hostility, and
he died in the midstof the oontesthis
friends wpre making for his renoml
nntlon in October for a pecond term.
He was a, man, whocballenged friend
ship by friendly deeds, generous to a
fault, public spirited to his own loss,
untiring in bis oflbrts to build up the
interests of Nebraska and promote
the welfare of his party. He will be
sadly missed by his constituents, and
his social and political friends.
