THE TRIBUNE takes great pleasure
and satisfaction in placing at the head
of tins column the namus of JAMES G.
ELAINE and JOHN A. LOGAN , the lie-
publican nominees for the offices of
President and Vice-President of these
United States. We can think of no
stronger or more popular men than the
"Plumed Knight" of Maine and the
"Black Eagle" of Illinois , and that they
will lead the Republican party on to
new victories and fresh laurels is as
sured. This consummation will not be
\
attained as. some of our more enthusi
astic brethren imagine , without an ef
fort , but it will be after a hotly and
closely contested campaign , that victory
will perch upon the Republican ban
ners , which will be nobly borne by
Elaine and Logan.
ELAINE and LOGAN , we believe , will
suit the Republican voters of Red Wil
low county.
THE Republican Valley Echo is now
under the sole management of Editor
Crane , his partner retiring. We wish
II. M. ample returns for his endeavors
in the field of journalism. .
THE Brash Lariat comes to us this
week , with a new and attractive head.
The Lariat , by the way , is one of the
neatest and best papers in every respect
that comes to this office. But the edi
tors must own a mine in connection
therewith.
THE death of Gen. Babcock is more
than usually tragic in connection with
his pending nomination to a higln
rank in the army. It puts a sad and
sudden end to the controversy. His
memory dead will be treated more kindly
than his person living , and tardy justice
will come around and take a melancholy
look at his tombstone.
EVENTS do not in these days occur
very rapidly in Egypt and the Soudan ,
and the future is impenetrable except by
the slow march of time and circum
stance. Why the Mahdi does not push
things is a conundrum , to be answered ,
propably , because he cannot. England
does not wish to do so. Egypt is power
less , and Turkey wants the pay of a
hireling for attending to its own busi
ness. The world should at once dam
the Nile and convert the whole region
into a vast inland sea , thus getting rid
of a perpetual nuisance.
THE more the ticket Elaine and
Logan is canvassed , the stronger does
it appear. Either of the men would re
flect honor upon thc'countryin the chair
of chief magistrate. They represent the
best and highest phases of American
manhood. It embraces the highest or
der of talent and the most dcterniinnd
fidelity to conviction. It comprises the ,
strongest business ability and the clos
est acquaintance with the details of
irovcrnnicnt. What more could we
- /
ask ? Lincoln Journal.
THE Journal lias had frequent occas
ion to refer with hopefulness and pride
to the grand section of our state knowi
in general terms as the Itcpuhlicni
Valley. It has been Imt a little while
since it-was opened to settlement , ant
for years it was the victim of disadvan
tages and hostile circumstances. Mair
lost their faith in it. and hundreds o :
settlers relinquished their hold upon it
and came away. But for five straigh
years fortune has smiled upon th'c
hardy and energetic pioneers who stuck
bravely to the country. Now they are
in prosperous circumstances. They arc
on the threshold of that stage of devel
opment were the log or sod farm house
bursts its chrysalis shell and develops
into a white frame with green window
blinds and an upstairs for the boys
and hired hands. Stock grazcs-oii every
hill. Churches and school houses
abound : Bustling villages surroum
every railroad station. Crops arc the
best at this date anywhere in the north
west. The face of the country is surpass
ingly lovely. The valley has established
the fact that it is equal to any section
of the state , and that it never dcscrvci
the suspicion and dread with which il
has been too much the fashion to rcgart
it. It should be looked at by every
business man of the state , its resources
weighed and its future estimated. Tl
is peculiarly bound to Lincoln by geographical
graphical proximity and business tics
We would like to have every citizen of
Lincoln see it for its full length , anc
sec it now in its brightness and beauty
The B. & M. authorities can well afford
to make an excursion at nominal rates ,
to go out one day and return the next.
A thousand people would go , if tickets
were made good to return on any train
for a Aveck , and nearly as many if they
had to come back on the same train.
We would be pleased to see this
magnificent section placed on exhibi
tion. Journal.
THE recent explosions of dynamite
in the heart of London , to the injury
and danger of innocent people , is of a
barbarism that must be suppressed by
the decent and patriotic Irish leaders ,
or the cause of Ireland's independence
will be hopelessly lost. Xo sensible and
inteligcnt people can endorse these
outrages , which seem to have been
prompted more by a childish desire for
display than anything else.It may be
in accord with the romance of doge days
in Venice or the accomplishments ot
more modern nihilists , but it is ignoble
and crul. The sooner it is abandoned
the better for Ireland. The men who
plot such murderous warfare are unfit
for the blessings of civilized government ,
and the day that sees them at the head
of Irish affairs would be the saddest
and most fateful of ten centuries of
melancholy history. Journal-
TIIK crop outlook this month in
Nebraska is fairly good. Grain and
corn arc in slightly larger area than
last year. Both arc somewhat later.
Some small grain is exceedingly fine.
but the average is about that of former
years. Corn is free of weeds and in
good condition , but the stand is not
uniformly what could be ucsired. Tame
grass is in almost double its former
acreage , and is doing remarkably well.
Only within the last three 3cavs , since
The Journal began a crusade in that
behalf , have the capabilities of our
section for grass been understood and
believed in. Live stock is in fairly
good condition. There were considerable
losses last winter , "due in many cases to
insufficient feed and shelter. Altogether
the agricultural prospects arc good
enough. Journal.
TIIK Englisji papers express some
considerable surprise and dissatisfaction
with the nomination of Elaine , the Lon
don Times going so far as to say that it
will end in the dissolution of the repub
lican party. It is pretty safe for the re
publican or Union party to do just what
the English and the democrats do not
want it to do. The principal objection
to Elaine is his anti-free trade ideas and
his position when secretary of state in
the matter of the Peru Chili controversy
and the claim some American set up.
The republican candidate's position in
this regard is invulnerable , American ,
and will be approved by the people.
The voters will also look up.on his vigor
ous foreign policy with favor.
the important measures that
will engage the attention of the House
this week i ? the bill to repeal the pre
emption and timber-culture laws. The
pre-emption law was gotten up for the
benefit of speculators , and the timber-
culture act wts passed in the interest
of land sharks. Bee.
TIIK record of the court of inquiry
in thcxjase of Gen. Swaim , judge advo
cate general of the army , reports the
facts as developed by evidence , and
concludes as follows : "The court of
inquiry is of the opinion that while it
is not prepared to say that any specific
act developed by the evidence is actu
ally fraudulent , yet evidence dues show
that a series of transactions discred
itable to any officer of the army , espec
ially demands the severest condemna
tion when engaged in by an officer
holding the high position and the
peculiar relations to the administration
of justice in the army , held by Briga
dier General Swaim. " The secretary of
war laid the report before the president
to-day , and it was decided to order a
court martial for the trial of Swaim.
The detail for the court will be made in
a few days.
TIIK history of crime docs not furnish
a parallel to the atrocity perpetrated
near Duluth last Saturday. The wife of
a fanner had first been outraged and
then shot twice in the head. Her body
was thrown across a log , the bowels cut
open and flesh cut from the limbs in
the most wanton and cruel manner.
The account of the crime is hardly to
be believed. It is nearly as incredible
as the alleged murder is inhuman.
ILLINOIS and Maine clasped hands in

nominated , and again in 1884 Maine
clasped hands with Illinois in the nomi
