that they own the State of Nebraska.
Tltov have no eoneeption of tho ilnor
sensibilities butare ready at all times
to gobble up everything in sight. If
they cannot get all they want they go
home and sulk. At both of the big
slate conventions hist week tho dele
gates from Omaha culled odium upon
themselves simply 4)eeau.so they took
the position that Omaha was against
and hence the whole state should fall
into Hue and let them have their ar
rogant way. If Omaha really desires
to obtain the good will of the rest of
the state she must adopt dtll'erent
taeties. The biggest eity in the state
ought to be big enough to realize that
wiusomeiiess goes farther to gain
I aver than does bulldozing. The
trouble with Omaha is that she Is so
self eeiitend that she enn't see any
thing but her own relleetloii.

small towns and villages tho elttb has

ifiory of their own liorilaixe
The valtto of a sunimer institute d
ponds more upon the individual teach
ers than upon any other element of
tho institute. However careful the
Superintendent is in getting able in
structors it can all be set at nought if
tho teachers themselves do not put
forth efforts to get the moht out of it.
Judging by a short visit to the in
struction rooms we believe that the
teaehcrs this year are alive to their
own interests and are doing real work.
The instructors are etlicietit and eveiy
thing possible lias been anticipated
that will in any way add to the com-
.rynu In Defeat.
Ilryan's meanest enemy could not
have hoped for it more signal defeat
than was administered to tin-national
democratic leader by tho Nebraska
democratic convention in (irautl Island
last Tuesday. It was a throw-down,
pure and simple. Democrats vied with
each other in throwiuir elubs at tho
man whom they had hitherto followed
as a leader. I.very weapon known in
political warfare was liuriod at tho
head of a man who through tho years
has held the undisputed control of
the democratic organization in his
state. In his effort to get county op
tion into tho platform Mr. liryan
could rally only two hundred votes
out of the 88ti.
Hut Bryan Invited the assaults upon
him. At his first appearance in sup
port of his county option plank in tho
platform he boldly stated that he ask
ed no man's sympathy, lie regroted
that he stood opposed to the certain
majoiity of the convention, but ho
s.iid he had always been ready to stand
alone in any light in which he believed
ho was right, lie told tho dolegates
that if they found anything inconsist
ent or undemocratic in his conduct ho
invited their censure, and asked that
they spare htm not. They took him at
his word. Columbus Telegram.

Bryan at Grand Island.
The editor of this papor attended
the democrat lu state convention at
(iraud Island ami we fed wo do uot
exaggerate the least in declaring
that for dramlc situations and In
cidents, display of oratory, Invective
and withering sarcasm by those
skilled in rhetoric and logic it 'was a
struggle such as was never witnessed
before in Xobraska and in many par
ticulars was the most Intensely in
teresting and exciting political bat
tle ever waged on a convention tloor
in this or any state lu the union. It
was a Titanic struggle pitted against
ouo man W. J. Uryun-iind when
all was said and ioia and the smoke
of battle had lifted from the scone,
there scorned but ouo inevitable con
clusion, and that was that it was
turning down of a great lender that
to his friends- could uot have been
considered otherwise than painfully
humiliating. Never did the genius
of Uryan as an orator shine with
greater lustre. Indeed, thero were
those present at Chlcnio who heard

excellent work is being done. Mon

tendered a reception to tliu visiting

Tho teachers of Webster County
evidently desire to equip themselves
thoroughly so as to render the very
best service possible. Tills county
is ono of tlio leading counties in the
state and we are pleased to uoto that
our teachers have high professional

with the largo enrollment and the en
