BARTLEY.
Sheriff J. R. Neel was on our streets ,
Thursday.
MissLena Beck of lndianola visited
friends here , this week.
J.W.Tomblin and wife of Arapahoe
spent Sundaywith relatives here.
Our school is now supplied with a
number of new books , and teachers
and pupilB are correspondingly happy.
The Bartley McKinley clup was ad
dressed by A. F. Moore of McCook. A
fair sized audience was present and
listened very attentively to his able
address.
"
Our band and a number of our citi
zens are intending to go to Cambridge
on Thursday evening to attend the
Republican rally and hear the Hon.
Edward Rosewater of Omaha.
Ed and Lulu Stilgebouer came over
from Danbury to spend Saturday and
Sunday with their brother , F. G. Stil
gebouer , who is slowly recovering
from the injury received while return
ing from Cambridge , one evening two
weeks ago.
A. F. Moore expounded Republican
doctrine at Cottonwood school house ,
eight miles north of here , on Tuesday
evening. The music was furnished
by the Bartley Republican glee club
They report a good time and a large
and attentive audience.
The Republican raily here , Satur
day afternoon , brought a large crowd
to town , quite a number coming from
lndianola , Cambridge and Freedom.
Several members of the lady march
ing club of Cambridge were present ,
and while the band was playing on
the street they gave a short drill.
After the drill "the crowd moyed to
College hall , which was beautifully
decorated with flags and bunting and
appropriate mottoes. The speaker on
this occasion was Hon. C. A. Atkinson
of Lincoln , and for over two hours he
spoke on the issues before our people ,
and successfully exposed the fallacy
of the fiat and other unsound money
schemes. By means of charts he en
abled all to understand clearly what
our home and foreign trade was under
the McKinley tariff and how much it
had fallen off since the repeal of that
law. Mr. Atkinson made a stirring
appeal for the voters to uphold the
honesty and integrity of their coun
try when election comes. The Re
publicans are more than delighted
with -the clear and forcible argu
ments produced by Mi. Atkinson ,
wnile many of the Populists say it
was the best Republican speech they
ever heard.
INDIANOLA.
J.J. Lamborn returned from Wilcox ,
Wepnesday night , and left for Lincoln
on the following morning.
lndianola is having about as much
politics per square inch as any town
in the state of its population , and it
is of the hot sort.
E. A. Sexson , chairman of the Re
publican county" central committee ,
went down to Lincoln , Thursday , on
business of a political nature.
Mesdames William McCallum and
W. G. Shackelton and Misses Ora
Smith and Gertie Teel visited McCook
friends , the close of last week.
J. J.Lamborn has about closed up
the business of the bank at Wilcox of
which he has been receiver , and will
now return to lndianola permanently.
W G. Black came in from Canton ,
Illinois , Thursday morning , with a
landseeker. Mr. Black expects to do
some lively business for Nebraska in
the way of inducing immigration this
way , and he generally succeeds in his
line.

The Republican Party s State Can
didates.
STAND HIGH IS PUBLIC PAVOR.
Strongest Ticket Ever Presented to the
Voter * of Nebraska Six Winners
for ConereM.
It is now nearly three months since
the Republican state ticket was placed
in nomination , and during the whole of
this time the opponents of Republicanism -
ism in Nebraska have not been able to
breathe a word derogatory to any candidate -
didate , or to assail the ticket as a whole
on any material point. As a matter of
fact the ticket as a whole is the best
that has been put in the field in this
state for many years.
The comment of the press of Ne
braska upon the nomination of Jack
MacColl has been the most flattering
ever accorded the candidate of any party
in this state for the gubernatorial office ,
and the enthusiasm that was shown in
the beginning has not only not abated
but has grown with each week of the
campaign. His canvass thus far has
been almost entirely in the western part
of the state , * which section is respond
ing nobly and promises the greatest Re
publican vote shown since the inception
of the Populist movement. It is not
necessary to dwell upon Jack MacColl's
personal fitness or business qualifica
tions , because they are well known to
all men. Is is enough to say that his
manliness and great-heartedness are
sure pasports to the affections of the
people , and there is ground for the be
lief frequently expressed that he will
lead the entire Republican ticket , even
though the ticket be exceptionally strong
through and through.
Orlando Tefffc is one of the pioneers of
Nebraska , and has a peculiar hold upon
the people of Cass county , where he has
resided for so many years. That regard
extends to all parts of the state where
he is known , and that is throughont
nearly all of the length and breadth of
Nebraska. He has- held various posi
tions of public trust and had served sev
eral terms in the legislature of the state
without one word having ever been
breathed against his personal character
or official acts. He will make a capable ,
honorable , conscientious presiding offi
cer of the senate , and if emergency
should ever require , would fill with sat
isfaction the executive office.
Joel A. Piper , who has served one
term as secretary of state and was re
nominated unanimously , by acclama
tion , was entirely deserving of that com
pliment. He has conducted the affairs
of the office and served as a member of
the various state boards to which he be
longs wirh both intelligence and fidelity
to the public interests.havingno thought
except the interests of the people of the
whole state. His * election cannot be
unanimous , like his nomination , but it
will follow as the reward of good offi
cial conduct.
The nomination of P. O. Hedlund for
auditor was more than a recognition of
the Swedish-American and the other
foreign voting element of the state. He
has served nearly four years as deputy
auditor and has proven to the people
his fitness in every respect to fill the of
fice as its chief. He is one of Nebraska's
best business men , he is a high-minded
gentleman of irreproachable character ,
and is in fact one of the kind of men
that all men delight to honor.
All of the best qualities of manhood
and the highest attributes of the suc
cessful and honorable business man are
combined in Charles E. Casey , the par
ty's nominee for state treasurer. He
has been known for many years in the
business and political circles of Nebraska
and never has an evil insinuation been
breathed against his name. As a banker
he has been conservative , safe , and hon
orable in his dealings with all men. This
fact is attested by the remarkable unan
imity of sentiment in his favor through
out southern Nebraska where he is best
known , and by the people of all parties
in his own county who join in the testimonial
menial of confidence that has been sent
out to the entire people of the state.
The office of attorney general has
never Deeu better managed than during
the incumbency of A S. Churchill , the
nominee for re-election. He lias showu
himself to be\a lawyer of ability , and uo
personal interests or political prejudices
have ever swayed in the least the decis
ions that he has been called upon to ren
der. His re-lection will be a just recog
nition of his professional abilities and
personal integrity.
Captain H. C. Russell , the old soldier
candidate , is as brave and fearless in the
discharge of his official duties as he was
courageous in helping to beat dowu
armed secession. He is a faithful and
competent official. He knows nothing
but his duty and he does it at all times.
He is a strong man personally and his
candidacy adds strength to the entire
ticket.
The candidates for supreme judges are
Judge M. P. Kinkaid of O'Neill , and
Hon. Robert Ryan of Lincoln. Judge
Kiukaid's popularity has been attested a
couple of times by his election to the
district judgeship in a Populist district.
Mr. Ryan is one of the leading lawyers
of the state and stands high at the Lan
caster county bar. Both are well qual
ified for service upon the supreme bench.
The electoral candidates are : Frank
J. Sadilek , J. E. Houtz , A. J. Burn-
ham , A. O. Foster. Sol Draper , G. A.
Derby , J. L. McPheeley and M. L.
Freese. Every voter who wants to be
counted for McKinley and Hobart , and
that is what a majority of the voters of
Nebraska want , will place a check mark
opposite these names upon the official
ballot.
The Republican congressional candi
dates in the six districts are as follows :
In the First , J. B. Strode , of the city of
Lincoln , who has served one term and
whose re-election is assured. Dave
v , • - f •
Mercer has served two terms in the Second
end or Omaha district and will be re
turned for the third term by a rousing
majority. Ross Hammond , the capa
ble young newspaper man of Fremont ,
has been nominated in the Third dis
trict , and while he has to meet the uni
ted opposition of the Democrats Popu
lists and free silverites , he has a host of
friends and there is little doubt of his
election. Congressman Hainer , again a
candidate in the Fourth district , has
made an admirable record and his re
election is a foregone conclusion. Con
gressman Andrews has a walkaway for
the re-election in the Fifth , as a result
' , of the excellent service that he has given
, in the past. A. E. Cady , the ' 'giant" of
] I the big Sixth is
, making a magnificent
j j I campaign against odds , but his ability
j 1 and honesty are recognized by the
j j masses and reports from the district
j give every assurance that he will over-
j I come the fusion majority that he had to
meet at the outset of his campaign.
All of the candidates of the Republi
can party in Nebraska stand for safe ,
conservative , and a businesslike admin
istration of public affairs , and their elec
tion along with the majority that Ne
braska will give the national ticket , will
go hand in hand with the return of bet
ter conditions and a renewal of prosper-
ity.in state and nation.
Bryan and the Beet Growers.
And now we are told by the local
Bryan organ that 90 per cent of the
sugar beet growers of Pierce county will
vote for Bryan. If this were literally
true it would only show that the sugar
beet growers of Nebraska are willing to
abandon beet growing and go back to
growing corn and oats. Nobody has
tried to stab the beet sugar industry as
persistently as has William Jennings
Bryan and nobody has worked hardei
than he to give the foreign sugar beet
grower preference over the American
sugar beet grower.
The best sugar producers of Germany ,
Austria ; France and Belgium receive
bounties on all the sugar they export to
the United States. But Mr. Bryan is
not willing to give the American sugar
beet raisers any protection either in the
shape of bounty or import duty to en
able them to compete in their own mar
ket with the foreign product raised by
half-paid labor. Mr. Bryan's principle
has been : "Buy in the cheapest mar
ket and let home industry take care ot
itself the best it can. " The sugar beet
growers of Nebraska know all this and
that is one reason why they will not
vote for Bryan. In voting against him
they will only be carrying out Bryan's
own precept that they should cast their
votes for their own interests. Omaha

Wheat Versus Money.
In 1867 the price of wheat ranged
from $1.55 to 82.87 per bushel , and the
per capita circulation of money in the
United States was $18.28.
In 1877 the price of wheat ranged
from $1.01 } to $1.76JfC per bushel and
the per capita circulation of money was
$15.58
In 1887 the price of wheat ranged
from 66 % cents to 94 % cents per bushel
and the per capita circulation of money
was $22.45.
In 1894 the price of wheat ranged
between 50 cents and 65J4 cents per
bushel and the per capita circulation of
money was $24.30.
If more money is all that is needed to
insure a better price for wheat , will
some of the Bryanite school of poli
ticians bring their ponderous intellects
to bear upon these figures and explain
how it is that wheat commanded three
times more money when the per capita
circulation was from $15 and $18 than
it does now when the per capita circu
lation is about $23 ? N. Y. Commercial-

The Disturbance Was Premeditated
Be it remembered that. Monday , Sep
tember 14. 1896. in Omaha. A. D.
Beemer met one R. L. Metcalf , manag
ing editor of the Omaha World-Herald ,
and that the said Metcalf , editor of the
World-Hearld , then and there told the
said Beemer : 'Toucan go up to the
Coliseum tonight and see a big crowd ,
but you will not hear Bourke Cockran. "
And now the same Metcalf in the same
moribund orgau of dishonest debtors ,
denies the premeditated , organized
rowdyism of the silverites which dis
graced Omaha at the meeting Monday
night , September 14 , 1896. But Mr
Metcalf will be a long time explaining
how he came to make such a state
