The principal issue oi the cam
paign in Nebraska , according to
the Democratic platform , is the
non-partisan law which was
knocked out by the courts. It
alwa > 3 brings a smile to hear a
Democrat talk of being non-par
tisan. Nearly every act of the
last legislature was an effort to
give a salary to a Democrat.

While the primary returns
from a few sm'all counties are
not yet in. the general result is
so definite that the vote in these
several small counties cannot
change it. The onlj contest for
state nominations was as to the
Republican candidates for su
preme judges. The candidates
selected by a goodly number of
tiie Republican voters of the
state are John B. Barnes , of
Norfolk , Jacob LFawcett , of
Omaha and Samuel II. Sedg-
wick , of York. There was no
contest for the nominations for
regents and Chas. S. Allen , of
Lincoln , and William G. Whit-
more , of Valley , both highly
qualified men , are the Republi
can nominees for thesu two
olliccs. As the Hec comments ,
"tlicrc'will 1)J no dissent that
this is as strong a ticket as could
have been made up from among
the candidates presented. The
only contest in the' primary lay
in the choice of three candidates
for supretile judge out of eight
who had entered. The three
who have been nominated huve
all had experience as members of
the supreme bench and possess
tried and tested judicial qualili
cations , so their election will
involve no experiment. Two oi
th.im have been nominated by
such substantial majorities in
the primary that there is nu
question as to the consensus
of popular opinion backing them
While the. third has apparent ! ) '
won the nomination by a close
margin , there is no good reason
why he should not run even with
his associates at the regular
election. With a ticket made
up as this one is Republicans
need not go outside their own
party to put up the liObt men on
the bench and to maintain an
efficient management ot the
State University. " .Grand Is

Th ' vote for Judge Scdgwick
in York county is vary compli
mentary and indicates the
friendly regard of his neighbors
and acquaintances , with whom
he lias lived for more than
thirty years. Of more than a
thousand Republican voters who
attended the primaries less than
a hundred neglected t vote for
Judge Sedgwick. Nearly that
portion could easily be accounted
for by oversight and misunder
standing the ballot. It would
be preposterous to suppose that
all Republicans in York county
ore personally friendly to Judge
Sedgwick , but the opinion ilia *
he made a good judge and should
have had a second term is uni
versal. York Times.

near Dayton , Ohio , April 22 ,
1835 , and died at his home near
