Coming Events.

drege, August Qth.
Republican State convention, Omaha, Aug

August 4th.
Independent State convention, Grand Is
land, August 24th.
Independent Congressional convention,

The Democratic party l^eetls a
Gabriel—not a Moses.
The most discouraging tiling
on earth is the attempt to reform
abuses of any kind.
Both Arapohoe and Orleans are
soon to have Republican news
papers. it is stated.
Any candidate who will use
sugar in their cofjee, this fall, will
be liable to suspicion.
Nebraska's 1,000 militia will
encamp at Burlington Beach,
August 14-20 inclusive,
Kate Field very cleverly and
comprehensively defines anarchy
as the inspiration of the devil.
The doctrine of hate.
Senator Sherman pronounces
the Pullman company and the
sugar trust the most outrageous
monopolies of the day.
An agricolous rhymster of the
Hastings Tribune spells Helles
pont thusly-—Hell sport. And
Brown let it go at that!
In his recent roast of Duke
Pullman, Senator Sherman has
proven himself an artist, while all
the world applauds.
Hon. Jack MacColl is still in
the race for governor with a big G.
He will probably receive the nom
ination on the first ballot.—Red
Cloud Chief.
The awkward way that Harlan
of the Cambridge Kaleidoscope
.handles the verb to do, is sufficient
to drive a man to strong drink,
these sultry days.
The central committee ' of this,
the 29th senatorial district, will be
held in McCook thi6 afternoon at
5 o’clock, to name the date for
holding the Republican senatorial
convention.
There was ten billion dollars
less business transacted in America
during the first ten months of
Grover’6 reign than during a sim
ilar period the preceding year.
Quite a change.
The present strike will doubt
less be put down by force. But
neither party will win a decisive
victory. Neither should. Gov
ernment control in some form is
the logical solution of strikes, and
a national board of arbitration.
We would like to see James
McNeny of Red Cloud in the em
ploy of the state, with the prefix
attorney general attached to his
name. Me. is a thoroughly com
petent attorney, and his familiar
face is known throughout the
length and breadth of Nebraska
as well as Colorado and Icwa. He
is a capable man for the place,
and the place is none too good for
him.—Lincoln Journal.
PARTY OF THE THIRD PART.
The third party,or party of the
third part, or whatever you may
call it, may get to heaven but
they’ll never get to Washington.
It’s not on the way. Washington
is the wickedest place on earth.
It is the home of the devil. The
average democratic or republican
politicians are little better than
rascals, but the third party man is
a fool. You can reform a rascal,
but did you ever try to monkey
with a fool ?
They want to borrow money*
from the government at 2 per cent,
when the government is now bor
rowing at 5. We hear a great
deal of fool talk about the rich
getting richer and the poor poorer
under the present law. There
never was a greater lie, and I'll
prove it. There's nothing the
matter with the law. It’s the
man that’s at fault. There’s a
lawyer on that side of the house
makes $20,000 a year. Here’s a
little pettifogger whose family is
starving. The Jaw is not to blame.
Here’s a physician making $10,000
a year. There’s a little doctor
over on the other corner that
can’t make his salt. The law is
not to blame. I preach nearly
every day to 8.000 people, and
here’s a little preacher sitting be
hind me that can’t average 200.
The trouble is not in the law\
brother, it’s your noggin.
The difference is organic. If
all the wealth in the United Stated
were divided out today each man
would have about $1,160, and in
less than six months some fellows
would be riding in Pullman cars
and others would be walking cross
ties and howling for another divy.
—Rev. Sam Jones.
The artist who is managing the
political department of the es
teemed Times-Democrat under
took to voice considerable senti
ment recently, part of which pro
tests that his think tank leaks
profusely:
“The McCook Times-Democrat
thinks it voices the sentiment of
republicans in Dundy, . Hayes,
Frontier, Hitchcock, Furnas, Har
lan, Gosper, and perhaps other
counties in the district in advo- j
eating some visionary man for the
nomination for congress. Thej
T.-D. man's thinker is out of
whack. Andrews is good enough
for this county and we are not
afraid to say so. Name your I
angel. Barnes.'1—Frontier County
Republican.
What manner of man is George
M. Pullman that he skulks in his
seaside cottage while other men—
disinterested and innocent—strug
gle to extinguish the conflagration
that he has started? Why doesn’t
he come to Chicago and take up
his share of the responsibility?
By what right does he throw upon
the people of this town the burden
of his greed, stubbornness and
cowardice, while he sits rubbing
his hands together a thousand
miles away, discoursing imbecile
platitudes to reporters and an
nouncing in effect that the whole
country may be d-d befoi’e he
will lift a finger? Is he really a
man or a mere aggregation of
stupidity, poltroonery, obstinacy
and unearned dividends ?—Chicago
Herald,
Employers naturally side with
their western contemporaries and
the toilers with their own class.
The right of organization must be
freely granted to each, but op
pression on the one hand and law
lessness on the other will not be
tolerated by the people of this
country. Every day’s delay makes
the matter worse, and only through
arbitration can there be any satis
factory and permanent settlement
of the questions involved.—Boston
Globe.
Pity the sorrows of the poor
rich man. He has no rights, no
protection. He is no longer in it.
The best thing for him to do is to
sell what he has, cease giving em
ployment to labor, and travel
abroad with whatever he can
scrape out of the wreck. It is
plain enough that he is not wanted
at home.—Lincoln Journal.
Yes. God bless and preserve
the poor rich man.
The savers of the country just j
at present who boast that they
work with their heads snstead of
their hands, should remember that
the woodpecker does the same
thing and is the biggest kind of a
bore at that.
The Irrigation Farmer says the j
Burlington will spend $750,000 in
promoting irrigation projects in;
western Nebraska.
See call for the county conven
tion in this issue. Turn out to the j
.primaries, and let us have a large. !
representative convention.
So far as Chicago is concerned j
at least the backbone of the strike I
seems to be badly shattered. The !
Knights of Labor strike has not j
materialized. We seem to be at j
the beginning of the end.
Cruzen is having such an inter
esting time just now trying to get
his home delegation that he is un
able to do much outside rustling
to capture other candidates’ dele
gations by his seductive $mile$.
The Nebraska Editor credits
Kansas with producing Norman
Musselman. Not much. Norman
Musselman belongs to the “frosty
sons of thunder,” and was reared
“among the hills o’ Somerset,” in
the grand old Keystone state. And
he is a little particular about it.

It is quite all that it might be to !
be: Bright and piquant editori
ally. neat and natty typographic
ally. It will fill a want as long as
one of William Evarts’ periods—
and do it cleverly. Here’s success
to the enterprise and a whole lot
of fun for the boys. May Walt’s
head never diminish, nor Merwin’s
curls be shorn.
