J. l A. Black of Blooming ion scorns to have as strong a following for tho gubernatorial nomination as nny enndidato in tho field at prcsont. Mr. Black Is as strong a man as the Fifth district could bring out, and it is an already conceded fact that I ho west ern and southern part of tho stato is entitled to somothing this year. Should ho receive the nomination ho will carry his full party voto and nioro, too. At tho Furnas county republican convention last week tbo delegation to tho congressional convention was In structed to voto for tho nomination of Judgo J. ( Norris of McCook for con gressman from tho Fifth district. That Mr. Norris is a good man will be con ceded by all who know him, but did tho west end of the district stop to considor that thoy bad tho candidate two years ago and that it belong to tho east end this time? While Mr. Norris is a good man, still wo think tho east end of tho district has good men, too, as will bo provon at tho convention. And wo also think that tho west end should tako its turn and not try to forco matters. Tho county convention next Wednes day will placo in nomination a candi date for tho stato legislature, and wo would suggest that u man be nomi nated who is favorablo to some new laws. Wo would liko to see tbo con vention placo in nomination a man who would bo in favor of tn equal rovenuo law, and who would bo in favor of all property being assessed at its actual cash value, and providing n penalty upon both assessor und prop erty owners whore such law was vio lated With such a law, and a sufll cicnt poualty behind it to compel its etifoicement, Micro would be no need of an assessment of from G to 10 per cent, but on the contrary it would be from 1J to 2 per cent, l'hero are at present minis in this county worth from 80,000 to StO.OOO on which thore are no more taxes paid than on fur ins woith 31,000, and the same rule, will apply to real property in this city. Thete should be some lemcdy applied to eqnlizu matters, aud wo are in favor of seeing u man elected who would help to apply tho remedy. this monument at its approximate geo graphic center. Now Nebraska has never dono any thing of tills kind. Someday sho will have to begin. We of Nebraska City ire not very enthusiastic over such things In tho abstract; we might not care nbotit any monuments on Black bird Hill or at old Fort Atkinson; but we can probably all seo tho propriety of tho state's marking tho site of tho first Fort Kearney with some sort of s construction on tho vacant lot west of tho Morton house. With a littlo effort, this attention could probably bo obtained from tho noxt tegislaturo. Whilo in tho thriving lit'o town of Bladen tho first of tho week wo learned ntuong othor things that tho largest elevators in tho county are located thore. That business in all lines seems to bo picking up. Biadon does not sooni to havo any politicians just at presont who are nnxlous for oflicn. That thero is somo littlo talk of Von Hall putting. up another brick build ingThat thero will bo very littlo fruit in that vicinity this year, but gen oral crop condition wero tfover better; wheat is looking lino, having withstood the drouth much hotter than tho crop in tho south part of tho county. That Roy U.andstaff has just rotured from Kansas City, where ho has been attend ing a dontal college, and has somo thought of setting up in business thero. That Wayno Rood ana family are better satisfied thero than thoy wero in Wyoming, and that Wayno is now working for Chevalier Bros., who re port business brisk. That Emanuol Fitz and Frank Nelson of Red Cloud nro building a brick residence for Grandpa Lockhart. That Biadon has a first class baseball team which is de sirous of meeting teams from other parts of tho county. That tho major portion of tho town seems to be lined up on tho side of C E. Hicks in the attempt to force him to quit the town. To Minnesota Lakes.

They have done more, for instance, in tho way of marking historic spots down there than we havo ever done in our state. Wo havo no reason to think thoy are any moro considerate of re cent events, of matters connected with the civil or Suarish wars; but of the times that lay back of living man's momory they seem to be more mind ful. Last Soptetnber thoy dedicated a monument to Lieutenant Pike, on the site of the Indian village or "republic" whete he pulled down the last Spanish ting in 1806; and now thoy aro putting up a shaft to mark tho kingdom of Quivera. This is a name found in the records of the early Spanish explorers, who beard of such a placo and expect ed to find much gold thore. So much moonshine enters into their narratives that Quivera has becomo a kind of a joke of late years; but certain careful student;, among whom is Mr. K. E.

A careful study of thu market m ports is Mttiiciont to cinvineo any reasonable person that the umbilical cord which binds wheat and silver to .gether can be made of nothing but the best and most olastic grade of India lubbei. During thu past week we havo heard considerable about the condition of tho wneat crop in this county, and from what wo can learn it is now generally conceded that wheat will mako from CO to 75 per cent of a crop. Whilo some of it is short stemmed, tho heads are of good length and well tilled. There Is one thing that people living Along tho Republican valley should do mid that is enter n protest against par tiisor corporations maintaining dutm across tho river which do not contain fish-ways.

The man who la offering from malnutrition is like the fettered swimmer. His stomach and Its allied organs of digestion ana nutri tion are diseased. It is not a question with him of winning in the race for busu ness but of simply keeping up under anr circumstances. Whenever disease affects the stomach it is affecting also the blood and the health of every or van of the body. For blood is only food converted into nutrition and nutri tion is the life of the body and every organ of it. Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutri tion. It purifies the blood and enables the perfect nutrition of the body which means perfect health. .
