Hill and Carlenville. There is a
very wild and rugged region 15 to
20 miles in extent, known a3 the

to explore this wild section of coun

The spirit of progress is surely
abroad in the land. The evidence
of it is not far to seek on every hand.
Capital is seeking investment in all
the old chauueis of business, and

Such an impetus has been given in
Nebraska that the next ten years
will probably be startling in the
rapidity of the development of

than the increase this season iu her
number of miles of railroad, bring

ing their interests inseparable. The

JUDGE AMASA COBB,
"Who received the unanimous vote
of the convention will be elected his
own successor. No extended notice
of him is needed he is already a
member of the supreme court, and
has given general satisfaction. He
is able, honest, and atteuds faithfully
to the duties of his office.
JNO. L. CARSON AND JOS. W. GANNETT,
the former of Nemaha, the latter of
Douglas county, are well qualified
for the position. "Mr. Carson,"
says the Omaha Bee, "is ono of tho
ablest and most successful business
men in southern Nebraska, and Mr.
Ganuett's position asauditor-in-chicf
of tho Union Pacific railway system,
is within itself a guaranty of his
superior business qualifications."
GEORGE W. POST,
"Who received such a strong en
dorsement from the Judicial Con
vention is, personally, an almost
universal favorite throughout his
district. The Democratic party will
try hard euough to take votes away
from him, but they will find the
tables turned, and their candidate
hopelessly defeated. Mr. Post will
be his own successor.
STEPHEN S. 31'aLLISTER.
Our candidate for County Judge,
was born at St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 11th
1849, and is consequently thirty
years old. He is the youngest son
of Jamc3 McAllister, an old citizen,
and a well-known and much res
pected man. Young McAllister
came with his parents to Nebraska
in 1S5S, into Platte county iu 1SG0.
In 1871 he began the study of law at
the Iowa Law School, Iowa City,
and was admitted to practice in the
courts of Nebraska, at Columbus, in
the year 1S73. He has held the
position of Police Judge in this city
for four years, and Justice of the
Peace upwards of three years, and
in the exercise of the functions of
those offices has given general, and,
so far as wc know, universal satis
faction, showing ability, faithfulness
and promptness. No man will
doubt his ability to discharge the
duties of the office with honor to
himself and satisfaction to those who
may have transactions with him. He
is a mau who can thoroughly be re
lied on, of good habits, steady,
careful, pains-taking, prompt and
withal obliging aud courteous. If
elected to the office (which his polit
ical friends confidently expect) wc
predict that the people will be so
well pleased with him that he will
remain in it as long as he may desire
to do so.
HARRY C. MAGOON,
the caudidate for Sheriff, is a farmer
iu the western part of the county, an
ardent Republican, a man of strength
and courage, and will make a good
Sheriff. Harry was born at Lowell,
Mass., Oct. 22d 1S46; in 1S55 went
with his parents to Minnesota. It
will be seen from this that he is a
thoroughly western man. Being
such when the war of the Rebellion
broke out he enlisted for the defence
of the government, in the second
Company of Minnesota sharpshoot
ers, went immediately into the field,
his company being attached to Col.
Bcrdau's regiment. He was iu 23
engagements. Was with Porter's
corps at Hanover Court House; all
through the Peninsula campaign
under McClcllan at Fair Oaks,
Harrison's Landing, Sec. "Was with
Hancock's famous corps, at Division
headquarters as a sharp-shooter, and
was slightly wounded three times.
"Was in the 6econd Bull Run fight, at
Gettysburg and South Mountain,
and all the engagements of the army
of the Potomac from its organization
to its discharge, anil was never In
hospital but one week though
wounded three times. On the 25th
of August '64, when Hancock lost
his corps on the "Weldou R. R., Har
ry was captured by the Rebels,
taken to Petersburg, then to Libby
and to that deatlrs-pcn, Saulsbury,
where he languished six mouths,
and during which time, out of S,000
prisoners, 5,498 died of starvation.
He was exchanged the last of Janu
ary, G5, and came home but only to
raise a company to start back south
again, when Lee's surreirlcr was
reported. Mr. Magoon came to Ne
braska in 1872, and for the last six
years has been Justice of the Peace
iu his precinct. "We give Harry's
history somewhat at length because
voters wish to know, and because
a special onslaught is to be made
against him. His career allows
Harry an ardent Republican, coura
geous, determined and active just
the kind of man for Sheriff; being,
likewise, a man of very generous
impulses, he will do all he may,
legally, to mitigate the severity of
1 the law against criminals and others.
DR. T. E. 3IITCHELL
the candidate for Coroner is in every
way competent to fill the place for
which ho is nominated, being an ac
complished surgeon of many years
experience iu the army and
elsewhere, and an able physician. Iu
case of the death or disabil ity of the
Sheriff, he would admirably perform
the duties of that office.
JOHN W. EARLY
the caudidate for Treasurer, was
born in Columbiana count-, Ohio,
in 1814; passed his early youth as
Buckeye boys usually do ; when 17
he enlisted in the service against the
Rebels, joining the 19th Ohio; was
atShiloh, Franklin, Stone River, and
other engagements. After his time
was out he re-culistcd in the 104th
regiment, serving 2 years, and was
afterward in the government em
ploy until 1805. In '67 he camo to
Nebraska, Platte county, and engag
ed in farming for seveu years, serv
ing his county as commissioner.
Sinco the Fall of 1873 he has been in
the County Treasurer's office, either
as Assistant or Deputy under Mr.
Kummcr, that old war Democrat
who has held the position of County
Treasurer for twenty years. Mr.
Early has been trusted by Mr. Kum
mcr with the business of the office,
and is thoroughly versed with its
duties in every particular. John is
a very obliging, affable gentlcmau,
and of course will be elected. There
are yet several weeks of the cam
paign, and we will have something
more to say of this office, and our
candidate.
JOHN G. ROUTSON
for surveyor, is known to most of
our Platte county readers as one of
the best of men, and an excellent
surveyor.
G. "W. SHAFFER
for County Commissioner, is a farm
er, a man of good judgment who has
the interests of the people at heart,
and who would carefully guard the
affairs of the county in that import
ant office.
CHARLES A. BRINDLEY
candidate for Superintendent of
Schools, is a young man, son of
Charlc3 Brindley, one of Platte
county's oldest and most respected
citizens. lie has had about six
years experience as teacher, and is
very well qualified for the office.
He is a man of steady habits, whose
conduct will shame none of his
friends; affable, agreeable, upright
in his transactions, aud will honor
himself and the county in the office
to which his friends will call him.
