The indications now are , and it
should be a source of gratification
to the judge as well as of satisfac-
! J tion to the party , that Judge A.
M. Post will bfT renominated by
acclamation for member of the su
preme court of the state. Such
action will be a recognition of the
§ merits of an able and industrious
§ lawyer , a just and honorable judge ,
1 an upright and illustrious citizen.
I § ' Governor Holcomb gathered
i i no political moss by his recent reEl -
El I spouse to a question from a New-
HI York city daily newspaper as to the
I paying off by the people of Ne-
I braska of many millions of dollars
I mortgage indebtedness. But the
1 governor did add to the growing
II popular conviction that the gover-
1 nor let demagogism get away with
| his better judgment.
1 The attorney general has deci-
I ded that under the new law county
I judges must appoint election
1' ' boards for the fall election. The
; I provisions of this "non-partisan"
i 1 election boards law are : That the
1 county judge of each county shall
Be at least ten days prior to the first
1 Tuesday in November of each year
Kg appoint three judges and two
HI clerks of election in each election
PI precinct in the county , to serve for
B I the term of one year. They shall
jL each be of good character , approv-
II j I ed integrity , well informed , who
M | can read , write and speak the En-
jf glish language and have resided
Mn , in the precinct in whioh he is to
if. serve for one year next preceding
jj | ! his appointment and be entitled to
I vote therein. Said judges and clerks
B I shall during their term of office
1 i act at all general , special and
K I municipal elections held in the
| 1 s county , precinct " or city " "in which
1 I they reside forms apart. Provided
Bj I that the county judge shall appoint
HI as judges and clerks of election ,
B 1 at least ten days before election ,
B II three judges and two clerks nom-
B ] II inated for such offices in precinct
flit ) primaries. The county judge
p Vi shall select for each precinct one
Bj | judge of election from the party
Bj I polling the highest number of votes
1 at the last general election in the
B j precinct and one judge from the
B i party polling the next highest
Bj I number of votes in the precinct ,
fl ' and one judge , from the party
Bj ' . polling the third highest number
H r of votes cast in the precinct.
Bj J In cases where there , is one or more
[ parties still to be Represented on
fl ij the ticket , he shall appoint a clerk
B J of election from each of the two
B | 11 parties not represented on the elec-
fl tion board , polling the highest
B number of votes. If there are
j
Bj ! only two parties with tickets on
B 1 1 the official ballot then the party
H ! | polling the highest vote shall
H ji have two judges and one clerk and
Hf | l the other party one judge and one
B | clerk and in case of three parties
B on the official ballot , he shall ap-
B point a clerk from each of the two
B parties receiving the highest numB -
B ber of votes. Vacancies on the
B board on election day may be
B filled by the remainder of the board
B belonging to the same political
fl party.

HON. WILLIAM E. ANDREWS.
The best criterion by which to
judge the Ruler of the Nation , is
the wisdom he displays in the se
lection of his appointees to public
offices. President McKinley has
manifested his ability and insight
into the character of those he has
rewarded with offices of trust and
emolument.
• His selection of Hon. "William
E. Andrews of Nebraska , as Audi
tor of the Treasury , meets the ap
proval of the country , not only
among those who knew him here
as a faithful , conscientious , hard
working Representative in the 54th
Congress , but among his people of
the 5th Congressional district of
Nebraska , where he is honored and
beloved. Among the honest yeo
manry of the 5th district of Ne
braska , a district of farmers , he
has made a name to be proud of ,
where , by his honest industry , he
worked his way from an humble
farm hand to a seat in the Halls
of Congress. In every relation of
life , he has acted "well his part" ,
and after having faithfully dis
charged his duty as Auditor of the
great Treasury of the Nation , the
sturdy farmers of his state will
greet him on his return to Nebras
ka with greater honors to come.
The National Mirror.
The end of uncertainty regard
ing duties on imports gives great
er confidence alike to those who
have favored the change. The
great strength in stocks , partic
ularly in those of the Granger list ,
reflects assurance of heavy crops.
The remarkable rise in wheat , not
withstanding that assurance , is
based on heavy buying for export
and belief that foreign demands
will be large. To these must be
added another element of confi
dence scarcely observed a week
ago. The heavy increase in re
ceipts of gold , whether from one
side of the Alaska border or the
other , swell deposits ot the mints
and in the banks of this country ,
and if the yield from new regions
answers expectations , may have an
influence akin to that of gold discov
eries in California. The one re
tarding force , the strike " of coal
miners , has caused closing of a few
manufacturing works for want of
fuel , but negotiations for settle
ment are still pushed with hope.
"Duns , " July 24 , ' 97.
Can it be maintained that labor
is not as much entitled to protec
tion as capital ? If American labor
cannot hold its own against the
influx of free labor , trained in a
cheaber market , has it not as much
claim on Congress to be protected
as the manufacturer who cannot
hold his own against the free
goods produced abroad by the very
cheap labor he now seeks to sub
due domestic labor with ? If not ,
then protection to home industry
is a lop-sided humbug , and the
sooner it is wiped out , and we have
free trade all round , the better.
"In my judgment , " says Judge
M. L. Hayward of Nebraska City ,
"the best thing that can be done
is to renominate Judge Post , which
I think will be done by acclama
tion. Under no circumstances am
I a candidate. "
The family of William Stanley ,
now in Oregon but formerly of
Harlan county , write friends near
Orleans that he is on his way home
from Alaska with $112,000 in nug
gets and gold dust.
The editor of the Red Cloud
Argus goes into a spasm of poesy
over the recent birth of a boy into
his family. Perhaps he is excusa
ble , however.
In a very brief while there will
be politics enough in state and
county to satisfy the most fastidi
ous.

Two well known citizens of Mc-

had been drinking cider or not.
"When Mr. McKinley sent a
commission to Europe to plead
again for international bimetallism ,
two classes of men confidently
prophesied ignominious failure.
Both must be somewhat discour
aged by the results attained and

of international bimetallism is not
