The first gun of the season for Mc Kelghan was llrotl at HoUlrege last Hnt urday whon the independent county con vention instructed its congressional del egates in favor of him. Lawyer MoNony, of lted Cloud, has oaught tho contagion and has developed a strong ambition to succeed Congress nan McKeighan. Be will go to Mo Cook solidly supported by his own dele gation. .And still another county has boen heard from. This time it is Nuckolls, and she is bbxIobs to make O. E. Adams our next congressman. It is really sur prising what n proliflo crop of candi dates Is so suddenly springing up. - - Furnas county has no congressional candidate, and the delegates to the Mc Cook convention will not be handicap ped by resolutions or Instructions. They will be perfootly free to snpport whom they conscientiously believe to be tho moftavallnble man. Oxford Standard, Col.C. W. Meeker, of Imperial, and C. E. Adams) of Superior, are both candi dates for congress at present. Nuokolls cointy sends a delegation to McCook for O. E. Adorns for congress. Every county in the fifth distnot has a candidate for republican congressional honors. i Kearney county stands by her favorite son and sends several J. L. MoPhesly men to the McCook convention. The Democrat still insists that John C. Allen, secretary of this great common wealth. Is tho strongest enndidate the republicans in the fifth district could nominate for congress. Webster county now has its own re publican candidate for congress. The delegates will urgo tho nomination of Hon. James McNeny, na fine a man as nraotioea law in the Valley, but after nil only a small mouth ful for Billy MoKeighnn. Just tbo same the McCook convention will bo a corker.
