ItopulillunnlHiii I'
The republicans of Nobrnskn have n
right to feel proud of the action of tholi
delegates to the republican state conven
tion held at Lincoln Wednesday. Thoj
took n btanrt on every question coiuliip
up for their coiiHldonvtion that iiulicntot1
n desire to servo the best interests of thi
party and the state niul thuy have laii
the foundation for n winning light at
the polls the coming campaign. Evur.\
plunk in the platform is as the people
would hiivo it mid is an instrument
that none need book an excuse for sup
porting. It is clear , concise , and sponkt
on public questions with no effort at
equivocation or evasion.
The plank favoring the return o'
.lin-tloy to prison is especially commend
nblo , being handled without impuniu .
the motive of the governor , who it
given credit for an endeavor to servi
the best interests of his constituents
Their stand on the matter is determined
however , and Governor Savngo is to bt
congratulated for subordinating his opin
ion and promptly complying with tin
popular demand as expressed by the rep
resentatives of the republican party.
Their endorsement of the policies ol
the national administration is a worth ;
tribute to the grandest , most progressive
government this or any other nation
has over known. It is a stand for truth
mid right in the face of adverse ciiti
clems of the party's enemies and will
redound to the credit of Nebraska re
publicans.
The demand thnt custodians of public
monies give true nnd faithful account'
ings of the various funds entrusted to
their care , la n demand which Khoulr
Imvo the hearty endorsement of all
voters , regardless of party.
Their stand against coercion , tht
black list and the boycott , and in favor
of every man being allowed to enjoy
the fruits of his labor without bin-
draco ) , is in accord with the popular
wil' , as is also the ileuuueiiv ion t f law
less practices of whatever nature.
The demand for fair and equitable
taxation will appeal to the justice of
every property owner , regardless of his
holdings , who must recoguizo that a
fair distribution of taxation is not only
just , but that nil will be benefited there
by.
Irrigation , under state and national
laws , is given unqualified encourage
ment and it is ret oguized that with the
party back of this matter the state
will one dny be the garden spot of the
country , if not of the world.
The nomination of Hon. S. H. Sedge-
wick of York , for supreme judge is evi
dence ol the ability of the party to
gracefully snrmouut difficulties with
unalloyed credit. The convention
was handicapped with an abundance
of good material , It is an eat-y
matter to select a worthy candi
date when there is but one who stands
bead and shoulders above all others in
point of fitness and ability , but when
the field is composed of all good men
\ the difficulty is to make a choice that
will meet with popular approval and
leave no ll't'o ivi itwnu'he part of
othi it ' - > . . - . : : . . tuls. The
convention did this nnd did it well. J
ThiTii IH probably not n candidate bo-
foni the convention but will pull off his
coat and do hlH utmoHt for llto micei-m
of the ticket and there are none to qncH-
tion thu ability of the ono named for the
p Hltion. It wrwn happy settlement of
an Intricate matter.
The candidates for rcgentfl are good
men and true nnd there IH no outcome
of the convention but thnt mon of the
party can nupport with confidence and
fervor. KmmilcH of the party are put to
rout nnd they cmnnot pick n ll.iw that
will Htand the 1 ght of Investigation.
The HUCCOHM of the ticket now depends
luly on purty organisation nnd the
htmrty support of IIH immibtini. If the
uountloH now do an wtill as thu Htato in
H"li'tttMK ! mon the approaching campaign j
will undoubtedly close with success to
( lie ticket.
A I'aliilrr In n
\VMIilni ; to iiiuUe a study of a portion
tion ol' tinHwnnip near KAkuwn \ , In
rypt. I Met up my cam1 ! on thu edge
of a pool where the ground seemed a
little ( Inner than the rest. Quickly
becoming engrosHed In my work , I did
not notice that I WIIH nlovvly Kinking
until I found that my sketching Htool
had nearly dlsnppenied and my legti
weio Imbedded In ( he mud almost up
to my knees. With the breaking of
the Htirfaee enis ( the black slime gin-t
out most horrible odors , and smnll
stinging Hies , liberated from the earth ,
qnk'kly covered me , crawling up my
legs nnd anus , while the mosquitoes ,
combining In the attack , eventually
drove me from my half Mulshed work.
Though really quite clear , the water
was so alive with mosquito grubs as
to appear almost opaque. Ily thou
sands every moment ( he grubs would
come to the surface , either crawling
up the rushes or floating , and the outer
shells soon eraeklng In the sun left the
lltlle liweets at liberty. A few seconds
ends sullleed to dry their wings nnd
give them life and strength , nnd then
with hum and bir/z they Joined their
brothel s In the air , hovering In thou
sands like n cloud of black smoke over
thu stagnant pond from which they
sprang. Then I was discovered a rare
benne bouehe for those parts and a
rapid retreat became Imperative. H.

Spraklng of the queer llukea of luck
In the goldllelds of Alaska , n writer In
Aluslee's Mnga/.lno says :
"Often after the 'p'luIs ' made acci
dent , disease or death steps In to pre
vent Its legitimate enjoyment.
"Ono man dropped dead when at the
weighing of the llrst clean up ho found
himself a rich man. There was some
thing wrong with bin heait. Ho had
the physical strength to make the light
against bad food and water , to endure
the back breaking toll of developing
uul working out and all the strain of
the uncertainty that went before. The
supreme moment of success was more
than he could stand , and the use of
the gold passed from him with Its ac
quirement.
'A certain James Monde lay down
with typhoid fever In an outlying camp
Just as he was starting for home with
the accumulations of the year , nnd be
and his bag of dust entered Dawson
together on a litter. It took six men
to bring him In alternating four to
carry and two to rest and ho paid
each man $ l.r > a day. Once In Dawson
Meade seemed to grow better , and
when his sailing day came he walked
to the boat. He reached the wharf and
fell dead as he wns about to go
aboard. "

According to the Hartford Couraut ,
that paper In 1777 was owned and ed
ited and managed by a woman , whose
name comes down to modern days as
"the Widow Watson. " She had "exclu
sive charge" of the Journal. After a
couple of years Mrs. Watson married
a leading citizen of Hartford , and after
that date she no doubt let him advise
and assist In the conduct of thu paper.
Hut she holds the record for the first
woman editor In the country.
Tool * nnd
Despite all the attacks upon machin
ery , an age without tools Is an ago of
drudgery nnd degradation. If once
men tolled 10 hours a day , with a sin
gle stroke Watt's engine cut off two
hours In the morning for rest nnd two
hours nt night for reading. The mod
ern home , with n thousand nnd ono
comforts , Is the gift of tools. Wo now
compel steel fingers , steel knives , steel
wheels nud steel wires to do our work.
Take away our tools and civilization
would go back 100 years. Newell
