Conference week is a { jreat
week so far as the service of the
Lord is concerned but the ch'ick-
ens have found nothing in it to
crow about.
The "water democrats" tried
to hold a convention last , week ,
but were compelled to adjourn by
reason of the lack of numbers.
Not many of that brand left.
Soon the hoarse call of the
wild duck will be heard in the
hind and the nmflled boom of the
UUMS on the low hinds will pro
claim that the summer is over and
the harvest ended.
A prominent democrat said
when he heard of Ivy ford's nomi
nation. "The office will intro
duce to the state a man much
bijjuer than the office to whicli
he aspires. I hope every demo
crat in the county will supper !
him. "
Jake Tanner has fully recover
ed his health and will in a short
time begin his campaign foi
Treasurer. Jake as county clcrl
was a very obliging and eflicien
officer and as Treasurer wil
servo the people honestly am
capably.
Mr. Bolcjuck of Dawson ii
speaking to the Stella conventiot
about Will Alexander said , "he i :
a republican who votes the repub
lican ticket. " The statemei
coming from the man who utter
cd it and concerning the man o
whom he spoke , created a markec
impression on the delegates.
republican who votes the rcpnbli
can ticket is our kind of a republican

in their railroad passes as sooi
as the anti-pass plank was made
a part of the republican platform.
Tin1 * is a good move and demon
strates that republican platforn
plegdes mean what they say. Tin
Tribune takes some credit to thi
county in the anti-pass movemcn
as Samual Lichty , a populist , wa
the pioneer in the movement. I
is no small thing to be in ad vane
of a reform movement ; one ma
be called a crank and other con
temptuous names , but the em
when attained is ? worth all tha
it costs.
The office of county judge is
very important office : the mos
important in the county. Th
responsibility of estate matter
wherein the rights of widow
and orphans and entrusted to th
judge , require the most though !
ful consideration of the volt
when he comes to cast his.ballo
A county judge should be hot
est , capable , experienced and c
ficient. Judge Wilhite was n <
a candidate for the position ; 1 :
repeatedly announced this fact
his friends. Notwithstandin
the position taken by him tl
nomination was voluntari
tendered him by the conventu
because he possesses to a larj
degree the essentials ncessary f
the office.
ECHOES OF THE STATE CON
VENTION.
The state convention held in
Lincoln last week marked an
epoch in the political history of
Nebraska. The republican or
ganization had come to the part
ing of the ways. Two roads
vcrc open to it , one the smooth
nd easy pathway of railroad
emulation ; the other the some-
imcs difficult passageway to the
ights of the people. The con-
cntion was forced to choose , and
tpon its choice depended its
ight to existence as a party or
ganization.
The rank and file of the party
.vantcd a new deal and a square
) iie at that. The day of special
> rivilegcs had reached its close.
The railroad element fought as
t has never fought before.
Svery pass distributer , every
ailroad hanger on was in attend-
.nce , as a delegate if such were
tossiblc , but in attendance in
ither event. 13very effort known
o the practical politician was
xcrted , every scheme known to
he ingenuity of a trained politi-
ian was brought to bear in the
.ttcmpt to destroy the hopes and
icsires of the great mass of men
, vho love their party because of
ts traditions and its principles.
Dut absolute and complete fail-
ire was the portion of the corpo-
ation element.
The hopes of special privileges
ire as dust and ashes.
The corporations agreed to
: hoose between Duflie of Doug-
as , and Ames of Lancaster.
The independent delegate staked
lis hopes on Letton of Jefferson ,
t was generally understood that
in agreement had been effected
jetween Duflie and Ames that
the candidate receiving the larg
est vote on the second ballot
ihould receive the solid strength
of both candidates on the third
ballot. The hucond ballot dis
closed Duflie to be the stronger
candidate. This was the signal
to make Duflie an the third.
Lancaster , through Judge Holmes
its chairman , cast its solid
strength of ( > f > votes for Duflie.
Then there was something doing.
Senator Burkett came on the
stage of action. Not the Sena
tor Burkett you and I used to
know. Not the young man with
smiling face , seeking the line of
least resistance , but a new man ,
one von and I had never known.
His face was as white as pap
er and his black eyes were
blazing. It : an instant he had
developed into a leader as he
challenged the recognition of the
chair and said , "I am a delegate
from Lancaster county , I have a
right to cast my own vote and I
demand a poll of the delegation ! "
No mor e dramatic situation can
be imagined than that produced
by the words of Senator Burkett.
A theory that had been brooding
for years had developed into n
condition. The hour had struck
and the man appeared. He stood
white and determined as the
crowd surged about him. The
tumult was beyond disoription.
History was being made. The
dominant political party of the
state was demanding a right tc
live by asserting the rights of the
people. A Delegation was beiu
cast by the railroads without re
ference to the choice of the dele
gates. Burkett's demand was
granted and a poll of the dele
gation gave fifty votes to Letton
and sixteen to Duftie. There
after it was easy sailing , Lettoti
was nominted after the mosi
strenuous fighting ever known h
a republican convention. Thi
people had triumphed. Corpor
ate influences had received thei
death blow at the hands of tin
republican party. Judge Lettoi
in his speech of acceptance said , "
shall mete out even handed just
ice between the litigants of thi
g state. I shall know neither cot
ic poration nor individual. "
iy This shall hereafter be th
platform of the republican pai
ty : "Justice between all me
and all interests special priv
ileges for none. "
V.Ci. Lyford was nominated for
regent of the state university.
No delegation ever had a bet
ter candidate to work for ; no can
didate ever had a better delega
tion to work for him. 1C very man
contributed to the splendid result
attained. There was no duty too
ardurous for the Richardson
County delegates ; they worked
together as 3ite man to a common
end. Judge Jessen and Will
llaywardof Otoe , Dick Neal of
Nemaha , George Sheldon of Cass ,
together with Pawnee county
turned their delegations over to
Richardson to be used in the in
terest of Mr. Lyford , and with
these votes as a basis an organi
zation was effected wh'ch result
ed in a combination between Fred
Abbott of Columbus and Lyford
and the nomination of both can
didates.
No better ticket has ever been
placed before the people of this
state. No convention was ever
closer to the people than the one
held last week. The party stands
committed to the interests of the
common people. Railroad dom
ination has been thrown off ; the
pass , the rebate and unjust rate
discrimination arc condemed in
the platform. Every republican
hould be proud of his party , and
hould encourage its indepcnd-
nce by giving the ticket nomi-
ated the largest vote in the his-
ory of the state.
The World-Herald with its
sual truthfulness said in a recent
ssue : "The new dispensation
11 republican politics is builded
pen the support of the North-
.vestern railway , and its leaders
ncludc Senator Burkett , R. B.
Schneider , Ross Hammond , Con
gressmen McCarthy a n d Ilin-
haw. C. B. Dempster , Samuel
rlinaker , Frank Reavis , Judge
essen , William Hayward and
I. Harrison. " For ways that
ire dark and tricks that are vain
ommend us to the World-Herald.
The republican party in state
: onvention called for a new deck
and new dealers. It does not
> ese as an anti-monoply party ;
t has no fight on capital legita-
nately employed. It does not
shy from a corporation because
t is a corporation. It merely
leclares that railroads , not one
railroad but all , must stick to the
railroad business and permit the
people to run the politics without
corporation influences being ex
erted. The Lincoln News in
peaking of the above quotation
says : "As to the gentlemen
whom it names as leaders ol
the new dispensation , it is at
ault The principle that almost
every one of them is fighting foi
s freedom to run for office in
this state without first getting
> ermission or making application
to railroad headquarters in Oma-
ia. Whether they seek leader
ship or not is a question with
which we have not to deal , but
suffice it to say t h a t the
independence a n d cleaness o f
these men ought to make leader
ship from any or all of them
welcome in this state. None ol
them take orders from any cen
ter of political activity , and the
fact that they are banded to-
jet her in a common cause is ;
very good thing for that excel
lent cause. "
To see Geo. W. Holland ge
the Lancaster county deleg.itioi
by the scruff of the neck and pul
it over the dashboard into tin
Lyford band wagon was wortl
going miles to see.
In assigning the credit forth
determined a n d unequivoca
stand taken by the republicai
party in the recent state conven
tion , it would be manifestly mi
fair to overlook the untiriiij
labors of Harry Dobyns , edito
of the Lincoln News.

A Plain Duty. |
Regardless of politics it seems I
the plain duty of every Richard
son County voter to cast a ballot
for V. G. Lyford for Regent of
the state university. The office ,
while possessing no remunerative
value , is one greatly sought
by men who desire to be of dis
tinctive service to the common
wealth. A Regent bears the
same relation to the university
that a member of the school
board does to the local school.
Richardson County sends a large
number of students to the uni
versity , in fact there are but
three counties in the state which
send larger delegations , We
were entitled to the place given
Mr. Lyford by the state conven
tion. His election is assured , but
the voters of this county should
be for him without regard to
party affiliations. No man bet
ter qualified was ever nominated
for the office , and his service to
the state will reflect credit on the
countv and redound to the bene
fit of the university.
