CONGKItSSIONAL CONVENTION.
The pop convention of the Sixth
district was 'jailed to order in the
Opera house at 3 p. m. by A. F.
Parsons of Noitu Platte and the
session wa& opened with prayer by
Rev. Epley. Mr. Parson in open
ing the convention made an energe
tic speech but did not awaken any
great amount of enthusiasm. Ho
argued that the great question will
bo the perpetuation of our nation
and their "war cry" shall bo the
declaration of Independence and
the constitution. " Ilia memory
pofsibly did not run back to the
date when Schradcr , an honored
loader of the party earned the con
stitution and defied it with the sanc
I tion of his party. Yet ho main
o tained the Declaration of Indepoud-
ancc and the constitution were per
sonified inV. . J. Bryan. Ho had
evidently forgotten that only a few
months ago that Col. Bryan deserted
his regiment when it was called in.
to active duty , for the avowed pur
pose of going to Washington to
labor with his democratic brothern ,
in congress to got them to ratify
the treaty with Spaino , which in
cluded the purchase of the Phillipino
Islands , A permanent organization
was made by electing , T. M , Ellinge-
VoiUi of DftWQs ob.jurraan and Will
Mauk secretary , lie announced
nulitaryisru and imperialism as the
paraacnt issues , a largo standing
urm.y and. heavy taxation wore his
greal fears.
The usual committees were an
nounced from a slip of paper hand
ed him by Paeons and the mill be
gan to grind. The intermission
was ushered in by music from the
Broken Bow Harmony band. The
remainder of the intermission was
occupied by W. Q. Eastman who
was called out and succeeded in
furnishing music for the next half
hour that consisted prinoiply in
telling how good the people had
been to him and that he was HO glad
that he had not been u republican
all these years feeding upon husks.
After the report of the committees
Arthur Mullens of Holt county was
recogni/.ed , who with an elaborate
speech nominated Wm. Neville for
congressman. There beni no
other names presented the rules
were suspended and ihu nomination
was made by acclomation. This
called out Air. Neville who told of
uis good qualities and how ho had
stood against the administration in
congress and how necessary it waste
to continue him there to stand by
Adlai Stevenson who with him was
orgiually agreenbaokcr. Ho want
ed "tho republican party dethroned
and the opposition elected that the
country may again be put upon the
march. " Wo remember of the
country being on the march from
01 to 07 but it was not the kind of
"march" wo long to see repeated.
It was "Coxey's army of the un
employed labor marching to Wash
ington to demand of congress relief
from free trade , Three millions of
working men and women were on
the march vainly seeking imploy-
mont or to soup houses. Business
men every where were on the march
up and down the floors of their re
spective places of business waiting
for the sheriff to close them out ,
while hundreds of bankers marched
into forced bankrupoy and thousands
of farmers with their women and
children marched from their once
happy homes without , where to lay
their weary heads and without a
dollar.
THE DBMOOBATS.
At the conclusion of Neville's
speech Mr. Flcehaity of Lexington
was introduced as chairman of the
democratic congressional com
mittee. Ho stated that owing to
iho generosity the populist had dis
played in accepting the democrat
head of tbo national ticket that the
democrats of the sixth district
( which included himself Dr. Mullens
W. B , Eastham , Tom Finlon and
six others had held a democratic
congressional convention ' some
where in the oitj ) and nominated
their candidate lion. Wm. Noyillo
as tbo democrat candidate from the
Hixth district by acclamation. Mr.
Flooharty eulogized Mr. Neville for
his valuable ? record in congress and
then drifted into the discussion of.
the political issues of the day. lie
was very much exercised over the
provision of the constitution which
provides that all men wore created
free and equal. Ho is to young to
know from personal knowledge and
not bmnq versed in history did not
know that the republican party on-
paged in four long yoara of ono of
the most bloody wars of modern
times in teaching the democratic
party that provision should be ob
served the same as its other provis
ions. His ancestors in that party
fought that principle with all the
power within them and did not
yield until compelled by the
force of anna. Mr. Ploehartv is to
bo congratulated that ho now sees
the meaning ot that clause as have
{ ho republicans for the paet fifty
years , Ho need have no fears of
the present administration on that
point. no inhabitants of the
islands of tbo fiea , now under our
control w ll bo giyen ovary oivii
and religious liberty that the safety
of life , property and order will per *
mit. But the burglar will not liber ,
atcd from prison nor will the doors
of the penitonitary bo thrown open
to the ravacjer and murder upon the
plea of equality before the law.
Only those who obey the laws of
God and man can hope to enjoy the
liberty ot law.
At the conclusion ot bio speech
Rod Smith interposed a motion
that was promptly adopted
authorizing the chairman and
secretary of the committee to fill
any vacancies that might occur
ou the committee or ticket. Mr.
Smith doubtless remembered the
history of a year ago. Mr- Neville
by motion was authorized to select
the chairman , secretary and treas
urer of the central committee ,
A. P. Smith of Broken Bow was
selected congressional committeeman -
man from Custcr county.
ItcprvsciitatlTo Convcutlon.
The representative convention
was held in the court house at 8. p ,
m. .
Judge Morrison of Gandy was
elected chairman and editor Wisley
of Sarcent , secretary , The in
formal ballot brought out a host of
fellow * who the cfiico was seeking
and they each were hoed up for a
speech. It is hard to have to state
that some of those noble patriots
who were willing to bo saorifiscd
upon the alter for the good of their
country did not got a single vote
after they had made their speech.
But to * tirtlho convention off at a
rapid gait our friend W. J. Taylor
was given the nomination as ono of
the candidates for legislative honors
by acclamation. Then came the
contest. There wore a half dozen
more the office had been chas
ing around for weeks and thnre was
only ono place loft. 'It took five
ballots to determine the
matter. It required 20 votes to
nominate and when J. D. Ream
came under the wire with 27 votes
and Glassoy of Sargent with only
19 there was great rejoicing among
tbo friends of tbo winner and
sorrow with the other fellows and
the race was declared ended.
Next comes the battle.

MUSICAL INSTRUMENT
In good condition she Is sweet and lovable ,
and sings life's song on a joyful harmonious
string. Out of order or unstrung , there is
discordance and unhappiness. Just as there
Is one key note to all music so there Is one key
note to health. A woman might as well try
to fly without wings as to feel well and look
well while the organs that make her a woman
are weak or diseased. She must be healthy
Inside or she can't be healthy outside. There
are thousands of women suffering silently all
over the country. Mistaken modesty urges
their silence. While there is nothing more
admirable than a modest woman , health Is
of the first Importance. Every other con
