A sharper went through some of

he drew the cash and left what ii
known as "cold" checks in two of
the backs.
Another CoBHldcrntion.
Shall the state convention place in
nomination a United States senator,
to be voted for in November ? We
say yes, and most emphatically, yes.
The most important reason lor 60
doing is that if it is not done the
republican state of Nebraska will be
misrepresented by a democratic
senator. How so? some one says.
Because the democratic convention
will nominate some one who will
receive the democratic vote of the
state, in accordance with the law
passed by the last legislature; and
if the vote of the republicans is not
concentrated upon one man, the
democratic candidate may receive a
plurality, and will be entitled to his
seat on the 4th of March next. Or,
if the state convention decide to
leave it to the legislature to elect as
before, the democratic senator will
appear before the democratic senate
and demand his seat, upon the
grounds that ho was elected in ac
cordance with the laws of the state,
and will be seated. If Nebraska is
to be represented in the upper house
of congress, a candidate must be put
In nomination by the party and
voted for at the November election.
The above is from the Juniata
Herald, and is worthy of all con
sideration, when the well-known
fact is remembered that the U. S.
senate is the sole judge of its mem
bership, and that any excuse to
admit a democratic member from a
republican state will be eagerly
made use of. The best way, the
safest way, the only way for fair
minded men is to obey the constitu
tion and the law, It was a mistake
for the Central Committee to omit
from its list of candidates to be
nominated that of U. S. senator; it
will be a mistake, and a seriouB
political blunder if the Republican
convention of September let omits
to place a candidate on its ticket; it
will be a violation of duty if the
Governor alo shall omit a reference
to the bubjeel in his proclamation ;
honest legislators, when they come
to meet next winter (if the people
don't pass judgment upon this mat
ter), will find but a few hours out of
their 40 days to devote to their legi
timate duties, and will deplore the
blundering imbecility and wrong
headedness which, in its supreme
self-conceit uudcrtook to disregard
the constitution and the law, and the
general interests of the State will
suffer the consequences. The people
have done their best, under existing
laws, to secure to themselves the
selection of senator, and now let the
representatives of the dominant
political party of the State see to it
that they co-incide with the will of
the people.
Has the state convention a right
to nominate a candidate for the U.
S. senate ? Has not the central com
mittee deprived them ot that right
by neglecting to include the nomina
tion in their call. Nance County
Journal.
The popular vote on Senator is
authorized by a constitutional pro
vision, and an enactment of the
legislature, the result to be ascer
tained in the same manner as for any
other candidate voted for at a gen
eral election, and of course the state
convention will have a clear right to
nominate. No "ueglect" of the com
mittee could bind tho convention.
The minutes of the committee meet
ing will show that the matter wan
suggested by one of their number,
.but it was concluded to leave it
entirely with the convention. The
committee in their call simply ignor
ed the constitution and the law
touching this point. The conven
tion is not compelled to continue
the blunder.
The board of managers of the
Nebraska State Fair held a meeting
at the Creighton House, Omaha, on
the evening of the 10th. They
transacted considerable business,
and express themselves well pleased
with the fair buildings and grounds.
Special trajus it is thought will run
from the city to the grounds every
half hour during each day of the
fair. It is believed that all the
roads coming into the city will give
reduced rales, aud probably ruu
special trains. It is hoped that St.
Julien aud Hopeful will be on hands
for a trot. The manager are labor
ing to have the best fair ever held
in the State.
An excursion train tho other day f
returning from NiagaraPalts to. lack
son, Ohio, the front car at Waverly
jumped the track and went through
a bridge into the canal, throwing the
other cars off. One hundred and
fifty passengers, residents of Jackson
and vicinity, were on the train.
David Dungan was killed and fifteen
persons injured.

President John R. Craig has
called a meeting of the Nebraska
State Wool Grower's and Sheep
Breeders' Association at the Creig
ton House parlors iu Omaha Sept.
22 at 7-30 p. m. This is ouo of the
most important industries of the
State, and should receive every pos
sible encouragement from its cit-iaens.
The soldiers and sailors re-union
will be held at Central City, Neb.,
from September 13ih to the 18th.
Several distinguished gentlemen are
expected to be present. Among
those named are Gov. Nance, Gen.
Logan, Gen. Shermau, Gen. Wagner,
Gen. Swain and the governors of
Kausan, Missouri, Iowa and Illinois.
We cannot believe tbat the people
who made the constitution and the
law in pursuance of the same to
retain to themselves the right to ex
press their preference for United
States Senator will now go back on
their own work, without giying the
plan a single trial.
If the people could now fully ap
preciate the one reason why they
adopted this method there would be
no doubt of their prompt action at
the coming state convention in
making arrangements to eipresa
their choice for United States Sena
tor. Heretofore the time of the
Nebraska legislature which should
have been devoted to proper legis
lation for the Interests of the state,
has been, when there was a U. S.
Senator to elect, squandered in elec
tioneering and the squabble for that
office, and legitimate legislation
neglected. Gladly would the honest
and faithful representative get rid,
daring the session, of the waste of
time in electioneering for U. S. Sen
ator, and many other unpleasant
things connected with the contest,
and accept with pleasure the candi
date selected by the people, just as
readily as the presidential electors
do in voting for president of the
United States nominated by the
people.. We have yet to learn of a
single instance in which any elector
has violated good faith by voting
contrary to instructions, and we
believe the legislature of Nebraska
would keep the ume good faith.
In the discussion of this subject,
those of our contemporaries who
declaim against the constitutional
provision and tho law as foolish,
impracticable, nonsensical, &c, have
failed to touch upon this part of the
subject, altbongh they keep on yell
ing that the legislators will not be
bound by nor will they ratify the
choice of tho people.
Senator David Davis has rolled
off the political fence, and notwith
standing his objection to soldiers
for president, has concluded to givo
his vote to Gen. Hancock. This is
rather a good step for David Davis
to take, for being an aspirant for
that high office himself, his present
course will clearly define his
position so as not to mislead the
public in the future. Good bye,
David, and may the open aud deci
ded stand taken by you politically
bring the peace of mind which al
ways follows an open and decided
action.

The New York Independent puts
the nomination of Gen. Hancock in
its true light when it Bays: "The
democratic party, in nominating
Gen. Hancock, passed by all its
statesmen its Bayards, its Thur-
jnane, its iildens, ana otners of
similar stamp and took him because
it judged that through him it would
have the best chance of winning a
presidential election, and thereby
bringing itself to power. This is
just what and all tbat the nomina
tion means. There is not a demo
crat in the land who believes that
Gen. Hancock is as well qualified
for the office as Senator Bayard, or
Senator ThHrman, or any one of a
dozen other democrats who might
be mentioned. ' Gen. Hancock, as
president, would be no better and
perhaps no worse than his party.
He would represent the party and
do its bidding.
