Nebraska Republican.
The republicans of Nebraska hav <
reason to congratulate themselves upoi
the outcome of the contest in this state
The democratic plot to capture th
electoral vote of Nebraska by throwin ;
the bulk of the democratic vote to tin
Weaver electors has miscarried. Then
can be no doubt that Nebraska wil
cast her electoral vote for Harrison
although the plurality may be compara
lively small.
Lorenzo Crounse has been triumph
antly elected governor of this state fr
at least 12,000 plurality , and all thi
republican candidates on the stati
ticket are doubtless elected by plural
ities ranging from 10,000 to 12,000.
Returns so far received indicate tha
both houses of the coming legislatun
will be republican by a small majority
insuring the return of a republican t <
the United States senate. This is mos
gratifying , because unexpected. Thi
most extravagant estimate of republi
can strength in the next legislature wai
a membership of from 62 to 65.
It is now certain that at least threi
of the six republican candidates fo ;
congress have been elected , with :
possibility of the election of fiv <
members.
In view of the tremendou odds
against which the republicans of thii
state had to combat , coupled furthei
with the fact that they were left en
tirely to their own resources , th <
splendid victory achieved is a source o :
supreme satisfaction to every republi
can in the state. Bee.

The Loss Adjusted.
We are pleased to announce that the
insurance men have adjusted the loss
and the store of J. Albert Wells is
now open to the public , although re
pairs are being made. The decorators
and painters are at work on the south
side which will be placed in good shape
in a short time. Longer time will be
required on the north side where the
most of the damaged occurred.
The period of mourning at Washing
ton for Mrs. Harrison , so far as
external observance is concerned , will
be necessarily brief. The cabinet
ladies have decided to limit the time to
thirty days. It is one of the exactions
of official station that private grief will
not wait upon public duty. The White
blouse is not a habitation dedicated
strictly to the uses of the home and
'amily. It belongs to the people and
ts occupant is the servant of the
) eople. And thus the sense of sorrow
which the president would fain cherish
and keep alive in form as well as in
spirit must yield to the necessities of
lis responsibilities as a public figure ,
and the social obligations which his
) osition imposes must be resumed in
obedience to a demand which cannot
> e set aside , even though to obey must
wound the tenderest sensibilities of the
icart.
Preparations are under way for a
dance to be given in the Menard opera
louse tonight by the young men of the
city.
