Tlie republicans of Nebraska reiterate and cordially indorse the fundamental principles of the republican party as eunciated by successive national repub lican conventions from 1STA to 1888 and lelieve the republican party capable of dealing with every vital issue that con cerns tlie American jieople, wherever the rank and file of tlie republican party are untrammeled in the exercise of their po litical rights. Wo heartily indorse the wise and con servative administration of President Harrison. We also fully approve the wise action of the republican members of Itoth houses of congress in fulfilling the pledges of the party in legislation upon the coinage of silver and other measures of national importance and congratulate the country upon the con tinued reduction of the national debt. We most heartily indorse the action of the republican congress in passing the disability pension bill and a republican president who approved the same ami regard it uh an act of justice too long delayed because of the opposition to all just pension legislation by a democratic congress; yet we do not regard it as the full recognition of the great debt of ob ligation which the government and the people owe to those heroic men by rea son of whose sacrifice and devotion the union was saved and the government restored. We do further repeat our declaration in favor of just and fair serv ice pensions graded according to length of service for every soldier and sailor who fought in behalf of the union, and by reason of whose services and devotion t he government now exists. We hold an honest, popular ballot and equal representation of all the peo ple to be the foundation of our republi can government and demand effective legislation to secure the integrity and purity of elections, which are the foun dation of all public authority. Wo favor such revision of the election lavs of the state as will guarantee to every voter the greatest possible secrecy in the casting of his ballot and secure the punishment of any who attempt the corruption or intimidation of voters, and we favor the Australian ballot system for incorporated towns and cities, appli cable both to primary and regular elec tions so far as it can conform to our organic law. We oppose land monopoly in every form, demand the forfeiture of unearned land grants and the reservation of the public domain for homesteaders only. We recognize the right of lalor to or ganize for its protection and by all law ful and peaceful means to secure to itself the greatest reward for thrift and industry. We are in favor of laws com pelling railroads and manufacturers to use all appliances which science supplies for the protection of laborers against accident. We demand the enactment of a law defining the liability of employers for injuries sustained by employes in cases where proper safeguards have not been used in occupations dangerous to life, limb or health; railway and other public corporations should be subject to control through the legislative power that created them. Their undue influ ence in legislation and imposition of unnecessary burdens upon the people and illegitimate increase of stock or capital should be prohibited by strin gent laws. We demand of the state that the property of corporations shall be taxed the same as that of individuals; that the provisions of our constitution, requiring the assessment of franchises shall be en forced by suitable legislation. We demand the reduction of freight and passenger rates on railroads to cor respond with rates now prevailing in adjacent states in the Mississippi valley, and we further demand that the next legislature shall abolish all passes or free transportation on railroads, except ing for employes of the railroad com panies. We demand the establishment of the system of postal telegraphy, and request our members in congress" to vote and work for government ownership or con trol of the telegraph. We indorse the action of the inter state commission in ordering a reduction of the grain rates between the Missouri river and lake ports. We favor the modification of the stat utes of our Btate in such manner as shall prevent the staying of judgments se cured for work and labor, and t he enact ment of such laws as shall provide for the speedy collection of the wages of our laborers. We favor a revision of the tariff in the interest of the producer and laborer. The import duties on articles of common use should le placed as low as is con sistent with the protection of American industries. "We denounce all organizations of cap italists to limit productions, control supplies of the necessities of life and advance prices ns detrimental to the best interests of society and as unjusti fiable interference with the natural laws of competition and trade and ask their prompt suppression. The republican party has given the people an elastic currency of gold, silver and paper, and has raised the credit of the nation to one of the highest of any ooHHtry in the world, and its efforts to fully rerooneti7e silver should be contin ued until it is on a perfect equality as a money metal with gold. Owners of public elevators that receive and handle grain tor storage should be declared public warehousemen and com- pelIed "nder penalty to receive, store, ship and handle the grain of nil persons finite, wiiuotu uiscnminauon. ine state regulatiug charge for storage and in spection. All railroad companies should be required to switch, haul, receive and ship the grain of all persons alike, with out discrimination. We favor the enactment of more strin gent usury laws and their rigid enforce ment under severe penalties. THE CANDIDATES. Skrtchw; of the Men Chosen to Party Standard Bearer. Lucius D. Richards, nominee for gov ernor, was born at Charleston, Orleans county, Vt., November 26, 1847. He en listed in August, 18G2, in Company I, Fifteenth Vermont volunteer infantry; served his time and re-enlisted iu com pany K, Seventeenth Vermont volunteer infantry, and was mustered out in the summer of 1865. He then went to Han nibal, Mo., for a year or two, and in 1867 went to Iowa and engaged in civil en gineering for the Sioux City & Pacific railway. In 1863 he made a survey of that road to Fremont and later on went to Costa Rico, Central America, to fol low that line of work. In 1875 he re turned to Fremont and engaged in the land business and was agent of the Elk horn and town lot company. He was twice elected mayor of Fremont and was commissioned general of the Nebraska militia. He was married January !. 1871, at Burlington, Vt., to Carrie E. Hills, aud have two children Jonathan H. aud Fred 11. Richards. Mr. Richards is a member of the Grand Army of the Republic and Free Masons. He is now engaged in the real estate business at Fremont. He has leen chairman of the state committee for four years. Thomas H. Benton, the nominee for auditor, is the present incumbent and the youngest man to ever hold that po sition. He was Imrn in New Haven. Conn., less than thirty-two years ago, of Puritan stock. His father moved to Fremont, Neb., when he was but 10 years old, locating on a farm near that city. In the spring of 1874 he became, when 16 years old, t he recorder in the county clerk's office at Fremont. This position he retained until January 1, 1877, when he accepted a clerkship iu the office of the state auditor. On January 1, 1873, just as he attained his majority, he was elected second assistant clerk of the house, a position he relinquished at the close of February to accept the position of bookkeeper in the office of state auditor. State Auditor H. A. Balx-oek tendered him the deputy state auditor ship January 7, 1885. which was accept ed. In the summer of 1S87 he received the nomination for state auditor, which was ratified at the polls by the people by giving the highest aggregate vote re ceived by any state officer on the ticket. Mr. Benton was installed into the duties of the office January ., 1881. Col. Thomas J. Majors, the Douglas county candidate for lieutenant govern or, resides at Peru, Nemaha county. He was Iwrn at Libertyville, Jefferson county, la., June 25, 1841, where he at tended the common and select schools until 11 years of age. In 1850 he started for Pike's Peak during the gold excite ment, aud i flu rued with the stampeders without having seen the eldorado. In 1861 he became a member of Gov. Thayer's regiment, the First Nebraska, as a first lieutenant, and by a series of hard earned promotions reached the rank of colonel. He was mustored ont of the service in 1866. In October of that year he was elected a nienilier of the territorial council. He was a member of the first state senate, and also the second. Ho hold the posi tion of internal revenue collector for five years. He was elected to fill the un expired term in congress on the death of Congressman Frank Welch, and was three times elected a contingent con gressman from this state, when Nebras ka ought to have had a larger represent ation, but could not get it. He was the author of the bill that located the state normal school at Peru, and for a year after it opened he was himself one of its students. He was a memlwof the state senate iu 1887 and of the house in 1889, when he led the famous farmers combine and did some good service for the people of this state. He has been an active and influencial republican all his life. John Allen, the republican nominee for secret jry of state, was liorn in Honesburgh, Vt., February I, 1860, and received such advantages in the educa tional way as the public schools of his native village could give until he was old enough to enter the Honesburgh academy, where he spent several terms. He finished his education at New Haven academy, after which he joined his father in the lumber aud harness busi ness in his native town. He came to Nebraska in the spring of 1881 and en gaged with Raymond Bros. & Co.. wholesale grocers, and from that time until the close of 1886 was a travel ing man for that house. In January, 1887, he opened a stock of general mer chandise in McCook, where he has since resided. He has been president of the council for three years. On August 2, 1881, he was married in Lincoln to Miss Abbie Stapleford, a niece of Gen. C. J. Dilworth. They have one child. Both on the road as a traveling salesman and as a merchant at McCook, he was very successful and made hosts of friends. Augustus R. Humphrey of Broken Bow, the republican nominee for com missioner of public lands and buildings, was bom in Madison county. Ind., in 1850. He left Indiana with his parents in 1865 and settled on a farm in Davis county, la., where he residad until 1832. During the last six years that he was at home on the farm he worked in the sum mer and attended and taught school during the winter months. Iu 1881 he graduated from the Bloomington state normal school and in June. 1S82, from the law department of the Iowa state nniversity. He came to Nebraska in 1883. and in July, 1884, located at Brok en Bow, where he has since been engag ed in the practice of law, and where he has been very successful. He had no idea of being a candidate for this or any other office when he came to the con vention. He is reputed among those who know him best to be both able and honest, and of the material out of which to make a member of the state board of transportation. The family of Arthur Webb, consist ing of his wife and four step-daughters, living at Oskaloosa, la., are under arrest for the murder of Webb's 3 years old child by beating it to death. NEBRASKA POLITICS. Tho platform of the. independents of this district arraigns the republican party for its failure to keep its promises to the old soldier. With this sort of criticism on tho one hand and'the com plaint of the democrats on the other that the party is simply turning over everything to the soldier for his services, it is evident that somebody's statements are widely at variance with the truth. The real fact is that ihe truth lies be tween these two extremes, right along the line of policy being followed out by the republican party. Fremont Trib und. Burt county republicans, among other things, resolved in favor of a more stringent usury law making the penalty for violation, a forfeiture of both princi pal and interest; equal taxation, all property taxed at its full cash value, in cluding mortgages and the amount of same to bo deducted from the property incumbered. Gek. A. V. Kaptz of the Eighth in fantry, commanding Fort Niobrara, was relieved of his command the 21st, the post placed in command of Col. Smith and Gen. Kautz put under arrest by order of the department commander. It is learned at Fort Niobrara that the immediate cause of this arrest is due to some official correspondence relative to court-martial proceedings which seem to have left Fort Niobrara not iu regular form. Among the officers this is con sidered no ordinary ease, on account of the rank and prominence of itoth officers, General Brooke lieing in command or the department and Gen. Kant only recently a prominent candidate for pro motion, which will In renewed on the retirement of Gen. Gibbon in April next. Lsr Wednesday morning the night watchman at Weeping Water took after three men whom he took to be tramps. He had not followed very far when he was covered by three revolvers. They took him to Ihe suburbs of the town and tied him to a tree. On freeing himself half an hour later it was found that the Commercial national bank had been en tered through a window and the vault broken into. The thieves took SI, 000 in stamps and $100 in cash, belonging to the iost office, which had been placed there for safe keeping. SmalIi-pox is epidemic along the Mex ican side of the border. At Piedras Ne gras 25 per cent of the imputation has leen affected and the percentage of fa tality has been very high. In New La redo there have lieen upwards of 200 people stricken with the disease. The Mexicans have taken no precautions against its spread, and in many of their smaller towns it is raging unchecked. Skxoi: Martinez, consul general of Guatemala, in New Orleans, last Wed nesday received a cable message from the Guatamalan minister in Mexico stating that he had received advices from the home government to the effect that representative American states had asked Ezeta to vacate the control of San Salvadore. The dispatch also says there had been a battle between the Guaie malas and San Salvadoran. In Nelson county. Da., the other day a bolt of lightning descended from a clear sky aud struck George Price, who was herding cattle on horseback, in stantly killing both horse and rider. He was a young man of nineteen and son of a prominent farmer of the county. His death was witnessed by his father, who was half a mile distant, but happened to be looking in the direction of his son at the time. Is the McKinley bill a good measure for tho United States and a bad measure for England? The answer is to be found in the mass meeting at Sheffield, where 12,000 persons assembled and passed a resolution calling for tho government to take protective measures against tho McKinley tariff bill, which, it was stat ed, threatened to become the means of destroying Sheffield's trade with Ameri ca. Straws show how the winds blow. lEv. Thesdiy at Lansing in two eases brought, by the state of Michigan to re cover lands t hat had lieen patented to the state by the general government and afterwards granted to railroad com panies and others. Judge Peck of the circuit, court, decided iu favor of the state. One suit involved the title of 184.000 acres. Both cases will be ap pealed. Nkaki.v half a million more acres of land have been deeded by the govern ment to the Union Pacific. The delay in issuing the patent was a profitable arrangement for the company, relieving it of twenty years taxes and securing the benefit of enhanced values from the development of the surrounding coun try. Bee. Articles of incorporation were tiled at Springfield, 111., last week for the St. Louis, Springfield & Chicago railway company, to be built from Springfield to Chicago, with a capital stock of $:J,u00. 000, and of the Addison railroad com pany, capital $2,000, to extend from South Addison to Addison. Du Page county. J. S. Clarkson, assistant postmaster general was in Omaha the 22d. He ex pressed great indignation at the treat ment of railway postal clerks on the Union Pacific. He says they work seventeen hours a day and do not get money enough to buy their meals along the line. Blaine is for America, and he wants to see to it that in the adjustments of the tariff our commercial interests are not worsted. He is decidedly not in favor of this country putting her neck in a noose and throwing the rope to a business rival with an invitation to pull it taut. Paul Frank, the Missouri river vic tim, has at last been identified. W. F. Frank came to Omaha from Chicago and identified the body ns that of his brother. He took the body home. Mr. Frank and another boy left Chicago about three weeks ago. and he was not aware of his death until he read the fact in a Chicago paper. The rolling mill plant of Brown, Bon nell & Co., at Youngstown, Ohio, which has been in the hands of the receiver for seven years, was sold at public sale last week. It was bid in by creditors for $700,000. The debts of the firm aggre gate 1,800.000. EDITORIAL NOTES. Richards and Hastings are 42 Ben ton 32. Humphrey .'51 aud Allen 30 years old a young ticket.

Tin: crops are spoiling in France be cause or too much min. The same is said of the harvest of grain at Creighton. in this state, wheat and oats sprouting in the shock. E. J. Feroi'son was picking lerries in the woods at Silver Lake, Mich., the 23d when ('. J. Lord shot him through the heart at twenty paces. Lord says he mistook Ferguson for a bear. A cloudbi'kst in Clear Creek Canyon near Golden, Col., swept away all traces of the railroad through the canyon, cut ting off several towns from communica tion with the outer world. Ross Hammond of the Fremont Trib une, more than any other one man in the state, except Richards himself, is entitled to the credit of naming the next governor of Nebraska. Tin: deputy county clerk at Carthage, 111., writes to the Omaha Bee that no such man as Charles Gordon, as Neal, the Jones murderer was supposed to le, has lived there for thirteen years past. Clarenvr Rice of Kearney was struck on the temple while playing base ball. He made light of it, continued playing, but in a few minutes fell suddenly to the ground and died in less than half an hour. We notice that Secretary of War Proctor, Congressman Laws and E. K. Valentine have sent their congratula tions to Gov. L. D. Richards, but Con gressman Dorseyhas not, at this writing, been heard from. Illinois G. A. It. post propose to erect a memorial hall at Springfield, iu honor of B. F. Stephenson, the founder of the order. The structure will con tain memorial windows for the G. A. R., W. R. C, and Sons of Veterans. The city of Buenos Avers, Argentine Republic, is greatly agitated over the discovery of a plot to overthrow tho government. Tho place is garrison ed by 4,000 troops and 3,000 armed po licemen. The bourse is demoralized. Georoe B. Skinner, a well-known business man of Lincoln, who went to Chicago two weeks ago, with horses, which he there sold for 810,000, has not been beard from since going to Buffalo, N. V., and it is feared, he has been murdered for his money. James Killoren, late editor of the O'Neill Tribune, was found dead at the Hotel Casey. Omaha, Saturday, asphyx iated by illuminating gas.

Secretary Blaine telegraphed the state department to withhold the Behring Sea correspondence with Great Britain, which the senate by resolution recently asked for, until it could include his lat est dispatch to Lord Salisbury, the British foreign minister, and for this reason the correspondence has not yet been sent to the senate: but it is stated at the state department today that the entire correspondence will probably go to the senate this week, A gentleman who is familliar with the contents of the last dispatch sent by Mr. Blaine says that it is American all through, and that it rings as clear and bold as did the original Declaration of Independence more than a century ago, which shows that no mistake was made in placing James G. Blaine at the head of the state department. England has simply been trying her usual blufF game, and it is a great satisfaction to know that Ameri can interests are looked after by a man who does not bluff worth a cent." The senate has selected the following loard of managers of national soldiers' homes: E. X. Morrill of Kansas, for the unexpired term of J. A. Martin, deceas ed; A. L. Pearson of Pennsylvania, for the unexpired term of J. F. Ifartranft, deceased; L. B. Gunckel of Ohio, Tor the unexpired term of L. A. Harris, de ceased; W. B. Franklin of Connecticut; J. W. Hvde of Maine; .T. C. Black of Illi nois and S. S. Yoder of Ohio. Senator Plumb took occasion while the matter was under discussion, to say that h thought the homes would be letter managed if members 01 tne uoara were allowed to serve one term of six years. The members of the senate committee on elections evidently think that the federal election bill is to be" taken up at this session, as they are daily engaged in considering that measure as it passed the house, and they have already agreed upon several amendments thereto. This is a fact that it is well to bear in mind when attempting to predict the fate of this bill. Senator Pierce has offered an amend ment to the tariff bill which he thinks would bring about reciprocity with the sugar producing countries quicker than anything else. It empowers the presi dent to restore the present tariff against any nation which refuses to enter into adequate relations with the United States for the admission of our agricul tural products. The house program for the first half of this week is already mapped out. Today it passed the ''original package" bill, as amended, and took up the bill providing for a national bankrupt law, which is to be voted upon and it will pass Wednesday afternoon. Appro priation bills will probably take up the rest of the week. The republicans are now confident that the congressional re-apportionment under the eleventh census can be ac complished at the present session, and in time to have the next house of repre sentatives elected under it. There will, it is estimated, be a decrease in the rep resentation of the south and Now Eng land, and quite an increase in the north west. Where the representation of a state is decreased, all of the members from that would have to be elected as members at large; when it is increased only the additional members would have to be elected at large. If this can be carried out, it will knock the the demo cratic gerrymander of Ohio into a "cocked hat." Synopsis of the I'rocrtdtas of ths Board of Snprrvfcwr.
