THE COUNTY TICKET.
It is with a feeling of pride and
satisfaction that we point to the
Republican county ticket which
ornaments the head of our editor
ial columns for the first time, this
issue. It is the custom of the Re
publican party of Red Willow
county to put to the front as its
standard bearers only competent
candidates. This year they have
not swerved from their time-hon
ored and correct custom, but
have been more diligent, in view
of the political prospect before
them, in naming the candidates for
the several offices to be filled at
the coming November election.
Consequently, the ticket with
which the Republican party goes
before the voters of Red Willow
countv. this fall, is one of even
more than usual excellence and
merit. The nominees for each
and all the offices are men of
special fitness for the place, most
of them men of experience in the
offices which they seek to fill.
Hence, it is with pleasure and
confidence that we ask and urge
the suffrages of the voters of Red
Willow county in their behalf,
feeling the entire worthiness and
fine capabilities of the men who
compose the ticket.
The Tribune is tolerably near
the front in this campaign, thank
you. _
F. Bert Risley has moved his
paper, the Hitchcock County Re
publican, fr®m Culbertson up to
Trenton.
Considerable regret is express
ed over the fact that Church Howe
is still out of politics. He was a
delegate from Nemaha county.
W hen Mr. Bryan picks up his
effects and leaves the Democratic
party of Lancaster county, we fear
that Mr. Watkins and his four
lirm friends will feel lonesome.
The Democrats in convention
assembled, Wednesday, sat down
on Congressman Bryan, nominated
Frank Irvine, of Omaha, foi
supreme judge, Milton Doolittle
of Atkinson, J. M. Pyle of Wayne,
and Charles A. Kloman of Bos
Butte for regents, endorsed Cleve
land, demanded the prompt and
unconditional repeal of the Sher
man act, cut up a little more
irresponsible nonsense and went
home.
Judge T. 0. C. Harrison.
The nomination of Judge T. 0.
C. Harrison, of Grand Island, by
the republicans for judge of the
supreme court is an admirable one.
He comes from the great central
part of the state, and is rightly lo
cated. He is a clean, honest, able
lawyer and judge and will make
an excellent official. He is at pre
sent district judge, with an unim
peachable record. He was elected
to his present position in a district
strongly alliance, which is the best
evidence that the people at his
home know of his integrity and
worth. He was nominated today
(Thursday) outside of any railroad
or Rosewater interest. He w'as
nominated by the rank and file of
the republicans, and the same in
tluence that nominated him will
elect him. The next justice of
the supreme court is T. O. C.
Harrison, of Grand Island, and he
is a republican.—Lincoln call.
The house judiciary committee
on which are six ex-rebels, in a re
cent report had to handle the civil
war to some considerable extent
and they did it with their gloves
carefully adjusted. The report
starts out with an allusion to the
“late onpleasantness” as Nasby
felicitously expressed it. It calls
it the “war between the states,”
usually called the war of the rebell
ion” and further on it refers again
to the same thing as “the so called
rebellion.” This is however only
a transitional stage. The late con
federates will not long be contented
with so colorless a description of
the civil war as that indicated in
the phrase “The war between the
states.” They will in time describe
it as “The armed invasion of the
south” or “the war of unconstitu
tional coercion. ’ Then after
awhile if the grip of the ex-coufeds
on the country is retained through
the repeal of the law on the election
laws, it will be called “The armed
insurrection of the mudsills against
state sovereignty,” or something
of the kind.—Journal.
Colorado’s plan for establishing
a state currency based on silver
bullion looks beautiful on paper.
But if Colorado goes wandering
off across the zodiac by herself in
this matter of currency and bases
it on silver bullion, Boulder coun
ty, which doesn’t “raise” much
silver, may make alfalfa a basis
for legal tender; Larimer county
may set up bear skins, El Paso
county may have a county deposi
tory for summer boarders at Man
itou, on which to issue a somewhat
flexible currency, and the county
commissioners of Baca county may
meet and resolve that sage brush
and manslaughter, when duly reg
istered and stored in the county
sub-treasury, may be accepted as
full legal tender for all debts, both
public and private, including li
cense for saloons and faro banks.
Local currency is a good thing,
but Colorado should make sure
she can play with a limit.
If promises are to be taken in
evidence the celebration of Chicago
day at the World’s fair, next Mon
day, will eclipse anything hereto
fore attempted in the way of the
spectacular on the American con
tinent. The spectacle of a half
million people will of itself be a
great attraction. The fair has
been a great success in every way
and it is eminently fitting that the
day which is reserved for Chicago
should be the most elaborately
celebrated. Chicago has done a
great deal to make the fair a suc
cess. Without her splendid ener
gy it would doubtless have been a
failure. Consequently the entire
country will heartily unite in the
congratulations that will be show
ered upon Chicago, next week.
