Neb Warn S$K Fusion Force In Convention. The' populist county covontlon mot nt tho court house Inst Saturday nnd plnccil in nomination tho following tlokotj Clerk of district court, C. K. Conrad; county tronauror, Geo. F. Popo; county clerk, J. P. Hale; county judgo, Rev. I. W, Edson; county super intendent, Kov. L. A. Hussong; sheriff, L. 1). Wolls; coronor, Dr. Stevens; sur veyor, F. A. Kuehn. O. E. Conrad and Dr. Stevens nro the domoc ratio nomi nees endorsed by tno convention for fusioa. As yet wo hava been unable to find the froo silver republican fusion part of tho ticket, and havo como to tho conclusion that tho pops hnvo en tirely absorbed it. After the tickot brvd boon nominated the commiiteo on resolutions, through their ohnirmau, Capt. F. llouchln, reported a "batch" of resolutions which caused much mer riment among the delegates and others but wo cannot stato positively whether thoy wero laughing at tho resolutions or tho (l)nffablo manner in which thoy woro prosontcd. Tho resolutions would rcquiro about n column of spneo wero wo to print them, and no our spaco is somewhat limited wo merely givo n synopsis of what thoy contained, They renewed their allegiance to tho pop principles, call attention to tho record of theVeform forces, assorted that they had reduced the expenses of the state one-naif, although thoy forgot to show when and where; had almost doubled tho disbursements to tho common schools, but forgot to say that this was duo to tho presont prosperous con dition of tho country which enabled the poopfu to pay their taxes; that thoy had secured largo judgmonts against defaulting republican officials, but for got to say that it was largely duo to tho republicans that thoso Judgmonts woro obtained; that not a dollar had boon misappropriated or embezzled by them, Si's housorent to tho contrary notwithstanding; and that thoy desire to institute" tho samo system of reform in this county; tho prunmblo winds lup with tho startling announcement that "only by union of forces," moaning wo suppose n political pool or trust some times called fusion, "can tho tldo of cruel sulusbne&s, monopoly, monarchy, and imperials bo turned back." This we expect win intended for n hot shot at tho republicans, but at tho samu time almost admits defeat. Tho reso lutions proper favor tho fioo and un limited colnngo of sliver ut 10 to 1; iti favor of Initiative nnd referendum, even though some of tho delegates did kicked and said tboy wero instructed against it; and demand d public own ership of public utilities. Thoy de nounced tho war in tho Philippines us unjust, but forgot to say whether thoy wanted our army and navy brought home nnd tho Mag hauled down,as other pop conventions havo domanded;und acknowledged their fidelity to tho Declaration of Indopendonco, (as in terpreted by Aguinaldo, wo suppose) They donounccd tho gold standard and syndicates and trusts, as thoy are gi. cantic ovils to mankind, but said not a word about tho "small per capita" of tho country, shortage of monoy, etc., nor of tho trust they nro fostering which seeks tocortrol everthing, oven nil other trusts and syndicates. Thoy arc against issuing bonds and nlso against attempts to retire tho green back. Tho resolutions wind up with a laudation of Gov, Poyntor, in which administration Is termed as wise, patri otic and conservative, though tho peo ple have failed to see it that way, and congratulates nirn on his success for securing freo transportation for tho gallant First Nebraska, but forgot to nay that had it not Ucon for ono of Ne braska's leading republicans tho boys would have had to pay their own faro nnd Poyntor's "success" would havo been n "rank tizzlo." Tho resolutions may bo nil right if you read them one sided , but to a conservative person thoy show n lnok of one of tho principal features of all good governments, vizi "Equity to all and tuallco to none."

The cake is so large that it easily divides into two cakes of the ordinary size. There is twice as much soap as you get in the usual cake of toilet soap. Then it is very economical in use, foV although it lathers quickly, it is always firm and hard, even in hot water. As it floats, you can not lose it or leave it to waste in the. bowl.

Scott. A Pop Who Objected. Not long ago there was n populist convention over in central Kansas. It dragged along itscourso until at Inst it adopted tho usual resolutions abusing McKinloy nnd hU administration, de claring the wirr n failure, and ending with "Hesolvcd, that wo aio opposed to expansion and believe that our sol diers should come home at once from the Philippi en." Then It was that a dolegnto from iv far oft township, a man with gray hair and wearing n bronze button on his coat arose, and said: "Mr. Chairman: I am going to voto against Uicso resolutions, In tho iirst place wo havo never had anything but expansion slnco this has boon a United States. uSupposo wo had nuverjoxpand cd, where would wo bo today. Wo would havo only thirteen star in our Hag, and you, if you lived in Kansas would be voting with Spain or France ov some other power, if you voted at nil. Now tho fact is wo havo been ex panding for tho last 100 years and wo have added to our domain until we havo forty-Hvis states. Some of thoso states woro obtained through n war with a forelgu power and wo havo hnd war after war with, tho Indians who woro tho wards of tho powers wo got them from, but you see, Mr.Chnlrnmn, wo expanded just tho samo. Then, vo bought Alaska nnd wq had expansion again and no kick coining. No politi cal party put it In their resolutions against expansion in thoso day and now what is the use of passing these resolutions when wo havo already gono and expanded? You might as well pass resolutions that tho Almighty shouldn't make a world that is already made! Did not wo got Texas, New Mexico and California tho samo way wo did the Philippines? Wo must go forward or else go backward. Suppose after Dewey haddostroyed tho Spanish fleet, McKiuley had ordered him homo, then wu would havo had an issue. Wo could havo passed resolutions de nouncing McKiuley for not seizing tho Philippine islands nnd como straight out tor expansion and had an issue, "Mr. Chairman, wo have boon hunt ing for an Isjun for u wholo year, and it socnis like tho republicans havo got tho world by tho tail with n down hill pull.
