Endorse Ernst for Regent
Lincoln Dnllv News August 12 1901
It is not improbable that the name of
G J Ernst will be presented at the re
publican county convention as that of a
good man for the nomination for regent
of the state university
Mr Ernst who is beihg pushed for
ward by his friends for the honor served
for several years on the Lincoln board of
education and has always taken a lively
interest in educational matters He is a
thorough business man too another
necessary qualification for regent It is
believed that he would not decline to
accept if the nomination were proffered
him although he is in no sense a candi
date for the place The feeling is grow
ing that regents should be selected be
cause of their business qualifications
and knowledge of the state institutions
rather than because there happens to be
some one who wants the place and for
this reason Mr Ernst is being brought
forward as a proper man for Lancaster
county to present as one of the two men
to tie named
Nobraska State Journal August 13 1901
Since C H Morrill has fully decided
not to be a candidate for regent of the
university for a third term CJ Ernst
of this city has been prominently men
tioned as the best man for the place that
anyone could think of Mr Ernst is a
German by birth and a citizen of the
United States by choice He is a man
who has had extensive business experi
ence He has been connected with the
Burlington land department for twenty
years ten years of that time as B M
land commissioner For four years he
was manager of the Lincoln street rail
way and for three years director of the
First National bank of this city For
three years he was secretary and man
ager of the Boston Investment company
and for three years served as a member
of the Lincoln board of education He
is a business man of large experience
and progressive ideas and is eminently
qualified for the position to which he is
certain to be elected if nominated by
the republican state convention
RESOLUTION
adopted by the Lancaster County Repub
lican convention August 15 1902
Resolved That the delegates to be
selected by this convention to the stale
convention be and they are hereby in
structed to place before that convention
the name of Carl J Ernst as a candidate
for regent ofthe State University and
to us their best efforts to secure his

Must Moves From Hastings
Special Dispatch to the World Herald
Hastings Neb Aug 21 There is no
longer any doubt as to the intentions of
the Burlington Missouri railroad to
change three train crews from this city
to other points The change is to take
place Sunday One train crew is to be
transferred to Oxford one to Oberlin
and the other to McCook This will
cause the removal of about fifteen fami
lies from this city and means a financial
loss to the mercantile interests of Hast
ings of thousands of dollars

Eocky mountains this timo as not in
the past to the Windy Range or Big
Sandy for trout The happy little party
of five namely R B Archibald Gust
Budig John Archibald Claudo Ward
and the writer All goes well the train
glides smoothly along Soon tho Burl
ington train from Brush Colo pulls
into Alliance Neb where we mado a
stop and changed cars for Edgomont
South Dakota Wo visited the Burl
ington shops at this place Onco more
we are all aboard and the train moves
over a drouth stricken plain parched
and dry as under a tropical sun until
we reach the station Marshland Here
we enter the famous Bad Lands of
north and west Nebraska They are a
chain of low lying hills and ravines
covered with low growing pine timber
about sixteen miles wide
Our next stop is at Edgemont South
Dakota Here is located the Burling
tons great tie preserving plant Quite
a nice little city Here we changed cars
and take the Deadwood train to Minne
kahta a distance of seventeen miles
We change cars for the Hot Springs
From Minnekahta to Hot Springs is 13
miles Our train pulls up to the station
at tho Springs we are met by twenty or
more hotel runners trying to see which
one can make tho most fuss about noth
ing for they dont get this party Wo
look up our stopping place and come to
the conclusion Gillispie House is best
We visit the great pool or ydunge bath
the building about 400 feet long by
70 feet wide the water 3 to G feet deep
I counted 100 persons ladies gents old
and young all in the pool at one time
This is quite a pleasure resort and plenty
of wealth to be seen here fine hotels
and rigs for drives Next morning we
are on our way to Sheridan Wyo We
have had quite a nice run and some nice
scenery during the day Sheridan is
quite a nice little city situated at tho
foot hills of the Big Horn mountains
population about 1800 the town is about
the size of McCook but more business
houses The railroad company is put
ting up a nice plant here for doing the
worK on rolling stock some larger than
the plant at McCook Sheridan is des
tined to make a nice city some day
Plenty of church spires point Heaven
ward but gambling houses run wide
open day and night Here our little
party was met and joined by an old time
McCook friend F C Stuby now travel
ing engineer New Castle west this also
includes the new line now building out
of Toluca to Cody in the Big Horn
Basin We met several old time friends
here at Sheridan formerly at McCook
We are on our journey once more
toward the Little Horn River There is
some fine scenery between Sheridan and
Parkman the station where we make
our last stop Cloud Peak is plainly
seen from the road the snowy range is
some twenty miles away We have
reached the end of our journey by rail
at Parkman We now take a wagon to
go overland twenty six miles to fishing
grounds the road is rough part of the
way our road vinds along at the base of
the foot hills We have reached our
journeys end at last unloaded our tent
and provisions Budig and the boys
put up the tent and arrange the bed
We have commenced supper the writer
duly installed cook Mr Archibald and
btuby have been fishing about one half
an hour and they have returned with
eight trout from 8 to I6J0 inches not a
good day for fishing either Supper over
we spread our blankets on mother earth
for six as we all sleep in one bed A
few stories are told and we lie down to
rest ten feet from the roaring waters of
the river quite a change from the past
few days We have had a good nights
rest the cook is up as usual before the
rest Breakfast is ready and all hands
are readymeal is over and the boys and
Budig go up the canyon to look at the
scenery which is grand Archibald and
btuby go up the river to fish
Four oclock p
It r t t
m all have come
home hungry and tired Stuby and
Archie have over 50 fish for the days
catch from 8 to 16 inches lone Wa
have fish for supper Supper is over
and all hands retire to rest in the cool
mountain air We have all had a good
nights rest 5 am and the first call for
breakfast breakfast over Archibald
Stuby and myself go down the stream
to fish on the Crow reservation in Mon
tana the party has a permit to fish on
the reservation We were not molested
and did not have to show our permit
Budig and the boys went up stream
again to hunt for bear and fish 3 p m
all returned we have 58 trout for the
days catch of fish The boys and Budig
have no bear and few fish did not have
any bear fight so I suppose neither bear
nor Budig needed any help Supper
over and wre retire to rest
Six a m all hands up and ready for
breakfast Each one takes his turn at
the table or provision chest as we have
no table With tin plate and cup of
coffee every one waits on himself No
one complains of the cooking as the
rules of the camp are always strict in
cases like this the first one to complain
is elected cook The party have all gone
fishing but cook I have made a climb
to see the scenery
Three p m all back to camp about
50 fish the days catch some very fine
ones from 6 to 16 inches long all feel
satisfied with the days sport
Sabbath We have no choice of
churches today so we all agree to climb
up the mountains and take a last look
at the grand canyons mountains and
plains Noon and we have climbed al
most to tho dizzy heights of our ambi
tion so we sit down and take a birds
eye view of the country We can see
three streams running parallel across
the Crow Eeservation Can see beyond
the Custer Battlefield where General
Custer and 265 men were massacred by
the Sioux Indians June 25th 1876 It
has been the practice for the last few-
years lor the various Lf A K posts of
Montana and Wyoming to gather here
on this noted battlefield and hold appro
priate services in memory of the brave
dead Owing to this being the
century anniversary of the massacre the
services this year attracted even more
than usual attention this being the
counterpart on sea of the destruction of
the Battle Ship Maine at Havana The
number killed being about equal
We are satisfied with the days trip
and come to camp for the last time as
tomorrow we turn our faces homeward
