Bryan is expected to return to No brnska the lirst of next week and will soon thereafter sound another keynote or foghorn. ltosowaler may conclude before long that it takes morn than Omaha and Douglas county to elect a delegate at large to tho national convention. a Populist conventions this year nie doing some very funny things. In Missouri they absolutely refuse to fuso with their democratic allies and in Iowa thoy adopt a batch of resolutions that don't say a word about "stoon-tu-wun." Tho domocrats havo given it out that thoy will not bo satisfied with less than throo of tho seven places on tho fusion state ticket. Thoy want attorney-general, aulitor and lieutenant governor, and it is said '.hoy aro pre pared to flght for tho other atato offi cers. p All tho farmers in tho world in a sort of international trust to restrict tho production of wheat and laiso prices is the plan which it is hoped to cany into effect at the international tigu cultural conference in Puns July II 10. It is pioposed to ask the fanners ot tho woild to reduce their wheat output by 20 per rent, and not to sell a bushel for less than $1.00 Secretary Long, who somo months ago announced thnt ho would rotiro from tho cabinet with tho expiration of this term, has informed closo personal friends that no man could afford to de cline the honor of tho vico-prosidontial nomination. Ho said this in speaking of tho high complimont ho felt had been 'paid him in the montion of his namo. , i Last week wo said that this week wc would bo ablo to name the ntxt county attorney and we made no mistake in the prediction, His name t.

Hicks thu republican noiiii neo for state representative is just tho kind of a man that the people like to voto for. Two years ago Mr. Hijks was a candidate for II jut represonta tlvo on tho republican ticket, and was nboutlho only republican who came out victorious, lie is no politician, he is just a plain, holiest business man. Ho did not seok tho nomination, it came to him without a dissenting voto :from a body of mon who knew i.is in nntripc n( nrtmUU nrttf demanded, Ivory Soap is worth, nml wc feel perfectly safe In (linking the prediction that when tho vote is counted next November ho will havo been elected by n largor majority than nnyonu else on tho ticket. Tho county convention Inst Wednes day did :i good thing when they voted down n motion to instruct the dele gates to tho congressional convention. A motion to instruct delegates tdinuld always ho voted down If a man is capable in tho estimation of his fellow men to bo n delegate to a convention lie is certainly capable of voting to tho buHt interests of the party when lie gets to the convention without having to be instructed. We had a sample of that last year whu.i delegates were in structed for one man, and the result win a tie-up which was not broken un til after bcveiul hundred ballots had been taken. Claimed by Death. MissIIulda Cost, daughter of J. I). Post living .south of town, died Wed nesday evening at the homo of her sister Mrs. II. G. I'udigo. She was nineteen years of age and hail been sick for about one year. Deceased was born in Webster county Nebraska, anil came to California with her pnrents about ten years ago and has sinco resided near Solum. She was of a quiet, reserved disposition whoso refin ed tendencies won for her a wldo oirclo of friends. Sho leaves a father, sister and four brothers as chief mourners, all of whom havo tho sympathy of a com munity of friends a flower witherodjin tho springtime of life. Funeral services will bo conducted from tho Christian church, Friday morning nt 11 o'clock, with Rov.T. P. Hied, pastor, in chargo and remains will bo laid to rest in tho I. O. O. F. cemetery.

In that dream she will see herself always happy, always with a smile for the hus band and a kiss for the baby.

You say "vent," "pix,""roundces," "dubs" and other wicked woids Hut it don't nibke much diiTorcnco what tho men do though They can Undo or swap horses on Sunday, go hunting nnd shoot inbhitsnntl birds, go llsliing and drink water (?) out of a bottle, or do most nny old thing Hut boys must be good. If you enn got out on Sunday nnd make n dollar it is all right, but to enpngein tho low vulgar amusement of playing marbles. A Kansas editor is in n lienp of trouble. Ho recently printed nn item stnting that a certain resident, whoso namo ho did not give hotter stop kissing the hired girl. Tho next day twenty men called and stopped the paper and accused tho ed itor of meddling with their domestic affairs. Thnt's iisunlly tho ense If nn nttompt is made to givo someone a "littlo dig" thoro nre generally all tho way from ten to a hundred around tho next day to confess that thoy too nro guilty. Did you ever notice how amus ing it is to watch some young ladies whilo tnlking into a tolophone. Tho bows nnd gesticulations nro very forc ibly received nt the o.her end of tho wire. Also tho bewitching smilo and tho pretty pout. And last but not lenst tho pucker that appears on the lips when tho "good-bye" comes Wc aro not positive of the truth of this but it was so reported to us by it man who professes to have made a careful study o the subject Did jou ever no tice that in the spiing when tho young people's fancy lightly turn to thoughts of love it gives some old gossips some thing to talk about. Tins spring has been no exception. The worst of it ib that nothing is too mean for thein to say. They appear to take a great de light in repeating a story that is in tended to besmirch the character of somo young woman or man. Every time n story is repeated it is stretched and in one day's time a young lady's or n young man's reputation will be transformed from a spotless white to tako on tho appearance of n printing oillce towel. Tho reputation nnd char acter of anyone is neither a football or a brickbat. Hy law you cannot handle it to suit yourself No two or three ohl smut mills can "cronoy" together liko tho toothless old hags or witches in tho cave of Mncboth and consign a porson's moral standing to tho ash pile. Shun them always and give no crodonca to thoir stories a id presump tions. Try and mako them believe that that they havo fallen several de grees in your estimation for repeating stories which you know havo no foun dation and only besmirch someone's character. We may, if things keep up, publish a gossip column. If we do anyonn can write up and send in any story thnt is told thtni, together with tho names of all parties mentioned in tho story, nnd who told it.
