THE Republican Congressional Com mittee of the Second District of Nebras ka , meets at Hastings , to-day. NEBRASKA Republicans admire inde pendent men , but that independence must be devoid of demagoguery. THE TRIBUNE warns the Republicans to be on the alert as against being made victims of bourbon scheming and schem ers. Let the democrats paw their own chestnuts out of the fire. J. M.

The press generally throughout this sena torial district have expressed their preference for Hon. James W.Dolan. of Red Willow coun ty , for State Senator. The Pioneer has not heretofore expressed a preference for any one neither has it any pet candidates for any of the offices to be voted for this fall. It has been the province of the Pioneer to build up Dundy county and its people ; and as our peo ple are mostly new settlers , we feel it our duty to express our opinion in regard to who is fit to serve them in both branches of our state legislature , as well as state and county offices. The gentleman whose name appears at the head of this article is a resident of Red Willow county , long a resident of the state , and one whose interests have been'identified with not only his own countybut with western Neb raska generally. He has already served the people of this district two terms in the state senate at Lincoln. His popularity for honesty and for hard labor in behalf of his constitu ents has been favorably spoken of throughout the state. No charge of his being bribed by any monicd corporation has ever been intima ted , and no fault has ever been found by his constituents against his efforts to maintain their interests. We have no intimate person al acquaintance with Mr. Dolan. but have known him from reputation for the past five years , and our position has been such during that time that if anything against either his private or public career should have been mentioned , we surely would have heard it. There may be other good men in the district , who arc aspirants for the same position , who tliey are we do notknowbutwc do know that if J. W.Dolan procures tho nomination and he is elected ( which there is no doubt of ) the citi zens of D undy county will be represented by an able and honest senator whose great aim will be to serve his constituency in everything which is right and to their interests. Benkel- mau Pioneer. The Prohibition Convention. Agreeably to call , about a dozen gentlemen met at the court house on Saturday last. W. O. Norval of McCook called the meeting to order , whereupon C T. Livermore was elected chairman , and I. T. Birdsall of Valley Grange , secretary. Considerable speaking was indulg ed in , mostly to the effect that tho grand old republican party was equal to the occasion and that a new party was not needed to accom plish prohibition. Among those who spoke in this strain were Judge E. S. Hill , S. R. Smith , Rev. C. S. Harrison and Ora Clark. Rev. J. Leonard , Messrs. Norval , Livermore , Birdsall and one or two others thought differently and proceeded to elect five delegates to the prohi bition state convention as follows : C. T. Liv ermore , I. T. Birdsall , W. O. Norval , J. A. Tay lor and McGrue The following county central committee was then chosen : Willow Grove W. O. Norval. Red Willow J. A. Taylor. Valley Grange I. T. Birdsall. Indiauola C. T. Livermore. Driftwood Lewis Fauss. East Valley E. T. Ellis. On motion the committee was empowered to fill the balance with one member from each jjrecinct in the county not already named.
