Kcpiihlicau Platform.
Tho republicans of Nebraska reiterate
and cordially indorse the fundamental
principles of tho republican party as
etinciated by successive national repub
lican conventions from 185(5 to 18SS and
beliovo the republican party capable of
dealing with every vital issue that con
cerns tho American people, wherever the
rank and tile of the republican party are
untrammeled in Hie 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 both houses of congress in fulfilling
tho pledges of Hie party in legislation
upon the coinage of silver and other
measures of national importance and
congratulate tho country upon the con
tinned reduction of the national debt.
Wo most lreartily indorse the action of
tho republican congress in passing the
disability pension bill and a republican
president who approved the same and
regard it as an act of justice too long
delayed becauso of the opposition to all
just pension legislation by a democratic
congress; yet wo do not regard it as the
full recognition of the great debt of ob
ligation which tho 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. Wo d 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
the government now ovists.
We hold an honest, popular ballot
and equal representation T all the poo
pie tobo'tlie foundation of our republi
can government and demand effective
legislation to secure the integrity and
purity of elections, which tire the foiin
dation of all public authority.
We favor such revision of the election
laws of the state as will guarantee to
every voter tho greatest possible secrecy
in tho casting of his ballot and secure
the punishment of any who attempt tho
corruption or intimidation of voters, and
wo 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.
Wo oppose land monopoly in every
form, demand tho'forfeiture of unearned
land grants and the reservation of the
public domain for homesteaders onh.
Wo recognize the right of lalor to or
ganize for its protection and by all law
ful and veaceful means to secure to
itself tho greatest reward for thrift and
industry. Wo 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 tho 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.
Wo demand of the state that the
property of corporations shall be taxed
tho same as that of individuals: that the
provisions of our constitution, requiring
tho assessment of franchises shall be en
forced by suitable legislation.
We demand Uie reduction of freight
and passenger rates on railroads to cor
respond with rates now prevailing in
adjacent states in tho Mississippi valley,
and we further demand that the next
legislature shall alwlish 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 fbr government ownership or con
trol of the telegraph.
We indorse the action of tho 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 state in such manner as shall
prevent the staying of judgments se
cured for work and labor, and the 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 be 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 as 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 aatkm to one of the highest of any
country In the world, and its efforts to
fully "monetize silver should bo contin
ued until it is on a perfect equality as a
money metal with gold.
Owners of public elevators that receive
and handle grain for storage should lie
0edared public warehousemen and corn
polled under penalty to receive, store,
ship and handle the grain of all persons
alike, without discrimination. The state
regulating charge for storage and in
spection. All railroad companies should
be required to switch, haul, receive and

Wo favor the enactment of more strin

ment under severe penalties.

Ih-iuocratie Congressional Convention.
Wednesday afternoon last, about txvo
hundred delegates from tho democracy
of the Big Third convened at the opera
house in this city to nominate a stand
ard bearer in this district.
Judge Craxvford of West Point pre
sided, ami the usual preliminaries xx-ere
gone through with.
The only exciting episode of the gath
ering xvas during the discussion of the
ad visibility of endorsing the allianco
nomination of O. M. Kern. When Judge
Iliggins r Grand Island declared that
he had talked xx-ith many of the dele
gates from the northwest portions of
tho district and they had said that very
few democrats would vote for Kem,
there xvas quite a bit of hissing and one
delegate arose and asked the judge to
name one delegate; the judge did so and
then xvas requested to name others, to
xvhieh ho replied that his veracity was
not usually questioned, and continued
xvith his remarks against endorsing
Kem.
The vote settled it; Kem was not en
dorsed, and the democracy lost a seem
ing possibility of a chance to help se
lect a partnership congressman for the
Third district.
Tn a somewhat lengthy, eulogistic
speech. Judge Iliggins presented the
name of W. 11. Thompson of Grand Is
land. The rules xvere suspended, and
Thompson nominated by acclamation.
Being called upon he made the usual
and some nexv complaints against the
republican party, and thanked the con
volition for the honor or the nomination.
Among the resolutions adopted was
one favoring an amendment to tho con
stitution so that the board of transpor
tation may be elected by a direct vote
of tho people. A resolution "unutter
ably opposed to all sumptuary laws,"
the usual form of the expression against
opposition to the liquor tratlic, was
tabled, as xvas also a resolution faxoring
the eight hour laxv.
A central committee xvas appointed,
and the convention adjourned without
further incident worthy of note.
William Henry Thompson, tho nom
inee, xxas born in Carroll county, O., in
1S04. Ho graduated at tho Iowa law,
school and located, in LSSl, at Grand
Island, where he now lives. He xx-as
county attorney of Hall county in lS87-'8.
He is a married man and has txvo chil
dren. He is very highly spoken of as a
man. attorney ami citizen.
I. I.. Albert.
The republican and people's independ
ent candidate for county attorney xx-as
born in Clearfield county, Pennsylvania,
Pec. 28, 1850.
His father being engaged in tho lum
ber business, this was also tho occupa
tion of young Albert until ho was nine
teen years old. at xvhieh time ho came
west, attending tho Western college at
Toledo, la., of xvhieh his uncle. E. B.
Kephart, xx-as president, and or xvhieh he
is a graduate.
Under tho direction of Hon. F. C.
Hormel, a prominent attorney of Cedar
Bapids. Iowa, ho studied law, and was
admitted to practice in Plymouth coun
ty. Ho practiced in Iowa courts till
1SS0. when he came to Albion, Neb.,
xvhere he had an extensive practice until
last fall, when health failed him. and ho
spent the winter months on tho Pacific
coast. Early last spring he returned to
Nebraska, and with J. D. Stires. esq.,
opened a law office in this city.
By his acquaintances here Mr. Allert
is regarded as a young man of excep
tionally good ability, a bright lawyer,
and one who will Ih a credit to himself
and an honor to the political parties
which hax-e selected him as their candi
date for the important office of county
attorney.
Titere is a gang of men traxeling the
state now. selling wrought iron ranges.
They sell these ranges at from S05 to 370,
taking the purchaser's note which they
afterward sell at the bank for S4o. The
fact that they sell these notes for S4o is
ex-idence enough that they are selling
these ranges for more than they are
worth. Our own local dealers are sell
ing them for $45. yet there are people
who seem to pay SC5 and $70 for the
same thing to strangers. We have the
names of parties who hax-e paid as high
as $02.50 cash for a range that they can
buy in Seward for $45. Tho law in this
state requires each man engaged in this
kind of business to take out a license,
which costs $30. On Saturday last two
of these men were in Seward on their
xx-ay to York, after some stoves. They
were asked to show their license, which
they could not do, when Mr. Bly swore
out a warrant for their arrest. They
xx-ere overhauled near Tamora and
brought back, and took a continuance
for thirty days, xvhen the case will come
up in Judge Miller's court Seward
Blade.
Murder Near Blair.
Friday morning Charles Pratt shot
and killed N. K. Town near Blair, this
state, then shot Mr. Toxvn's daughter,
Hattie, whose wounds will probably
prox-e fatal. The cause is thought to be
from Mr. Town discharging him about
four years ago becauso his attentions to
his daughter, became unbearable.
After the shooting. Pratt xvas run
down by Mr. Toxvn's son and a number
of neighbors. About 12 o'clock Friday
night a crowd of mounted fanners rode
into Blair and were joined by about
200 citizens xvho went to tho jail, took
the keys by force from the sheriff, got
Pratt out and took him to a grove out of
toxvn. He said his intention was to kill
tho whole family; he had come from
Missouri to do so, and he was sorry he
had not. He hardly finished talking
xvhen they pulled the rope and fastened
it to the tree leaving the body hang.
Miss Hattio, later nexvs says, will
probably survix-e.
Tho murder was committed at an
early hour in the morning, while Mr.
Toxvn was alout his work.
Harry Toxvn, son of the murdered
man, led tho lynchers and pulled the
rope. Frank Harriman, the sheriff, fol
loxved the eroxvd to the scene of the
lynching and x-as a witness to the hang
ing. No masks were xvorn, and there xxms
no attempt at concealment.
The democratic platform adopted last
week admires Grover Cloveland; still
believes that tariff is a tax upon the con
sumer; is in favor of a .stringent usury
laxv; "encourages tho masses to organize
and under tho laxv to light capitalistic
encroachments by widespread organiza
tion and patient sacrifice;" protests
against alien land holding in the United
States; is opposed to interfering with
the doings of tho southern democrats in
counting down tho negro x-otes; favors
the Australian ballot system; favors the
election of U. S. senator by the eoplo:
free coinage of silx-er; denounces the
maintenance of tho state militia as an
expensive luxury, and closes by saying:
"Tho democratic party has a record of
opposition to all sumptuary legislation.
It does not believe that the social habits
of the people are proper subjects for
constitutional provisions. High license
and local option, however, have been
tried in Nebraska, and haxo gix-en satis
faction to a majority of tho people. As
between them and prohibition the dem
ocratic party is unreservedly in favor
of the formor, and attention is hereby
called to tho hypoerisy of tho republican
party, which, having caused the ques
tions to bo submitted to the popular
vote, thereby creating uncertainty, in
juring business, unsettling values and
depressing trade, purposely dodge tho
issue in tho last convention and neg
lected to say where it could be found as
a party on these questions in the coming
election."
The Paddock bill to prevent tho
adulteration and misbranding of food
and drugs is being discussed on the sido
now in Washington. Compared xvith
the Conger land bill, Mr. Paddock's
scheme is much moro in line with the
demands of tho people. The Paddock
bill is general in its provisions and oper
ation, and is so framed that no special
interest will secure from it any compe
titive advantage over another, xvhile the
Conger bill is simply special legislation.
Those interested in a laxv prohibiting
adulterated food, as all consumers are,
would favor the Paddock bill. The bill
is of national importance, and if it
should liecome a law xx-ould work great
good in xveeding out counterfeits and
manufacturers of bogus goods xvho glut
the market with their bogus wares.

A cosvextios of Ohio farmers last
Wednesday resolved that henceforth the
farmers must take a new departure and
be a factor in politics; they purpose
acting within their several party lines,
and lend their aid to encourage and
protect the interests of agriculture.
The address concludes: "We are in fa
vor of equal taxation upon all forms of
property; government control of rail
roads and telegraph lines as to rates aud
charges; unlimited coinage of silver and
making it a legal tender for all debts,
public and private; the election of Uni
ted States senators by popular vote;
forfeiture of all unearned land grants;
taxes direct and indirect as loxv as con
sistent with an economical administra
tion of good government; protection of
pure food products from the ruinous
competition of adulterated products; the
passage of a law nullifying the effect of

The Central City Nonpareil contains
a communication from a man who signs
himself a "mad democrat," in xvhieh lie
refers to the saying of Cornelius Yan
derbilt as to his son-in-law Elliott Shep
ard, who now edits the Mail and Express
of New York City that "he was more
kinds of a d n fool than any man he
had ever known." The "mad democrat"
of Merrick proceeds to say that "Vau
derbilt evidently had never heard of the
democratic party of Nebraska. A whole
convention of democrats at Columbus
yesterday discounted Shepard so badly
in the d. f. business that ho will hereaf
ter hang his head in shame. The idiots
could hax-e named the next congressman
by endorsing Kem, but instead of that
they made the election of the republican
absolutely sure.'
The Kearney Enterprise entered into
an agreement for a consideration, xvith
the prohibitionists, to advocate the
amendment, and now says they didn't
come to time xvith their part of the con
tract and so the Enterprise will express
the individual opinions of two of threo
owners of the paper, viz., against the
amendment. Though a great many
newspapers are employed as special
pleaders for pay. in the interest of those
xvho employ them, in working their
schemes upon the public, the best news
papers are not of that sort, and advocate
what they believe, in the precise line of
their faith, and accept the consequences,
whatever they may be. Any other meth

We hax-e additional evidence that
winter wheat in Polk county does pay.
In talking on the subject with James
Watts xvho lives four miles east of Os
ceola, he informed us that he had raised
fix-o crops of winter wheat. Last year ho
threshed 750 bushels, and this year
about 1,(1-10 bushels or an average of six
teen bushels. With a short corn crop
this year, this winter wheat will help Mr.
Watts out in good shape. More of our
farmers should engage in it. Good crops
for five years in succession, proves that
it is a success xvhen properly handled.
A greater variety of production is what
we need. 'Osceola Record.

('iniiei-tion Between Cattle and Hogs.
A short corn crop in Illinois, Missouri
and Kansas will raise tho price of hogs
next winter. Bacon will lie bacon in
the spring.
In the elaliorate article, published in
the Stock Journal of June 14, the na
tional bureau of animal industry proved
that the price of cattle maintained a
close parallel xvith the price of hogs.
Statistics were produced, showing the
relative price of each, from 1880 to 1889.
When hogs went up, lieeves went up.
When hogs declined lieeves declined.
The theory as contended for by the
bureau was that, after the prico of bacon
reached a certain point consumers turn
ed to beef as the cheaper meat. This
created an extra demand for leef, and
the demand run up the price of cattle.
If that theory is correct, and is upheld
by the fact, we may look for good prices
for cattle next spring, because bacon will
be fifty per cent alox-e what it is now
selling for.
It is xx-ell known that the boom of 18S2
began in the fall of the dry summer of
1881, xvhieh cut short the corn crops of
the great hog raising states, just as the
drouth is doing this year.
The conclusion from these premises
is, holt I on to your cattle, and raise
hogs. Texas Live Stock Journal.
Protection for Farm Product.
Contention that the tariff imposed on
imported agricultural products is of no
avail by way of protection to American
farmers will no more stand the test of
facts and figures than most other asser
tions of the industrious attorneys for
free foreign trade.
Under the existing laxv a tariff is im
posed on the principal farm products, as
follows: Wheat, 20 cents per bushel;
corn, oats, barley and rye. each 10 cents;
potatoes, 15 cents; live stock (other than
breeding), twenty per cent on value.
The effect of these charges, according to
the great apostle of free trade, xvho never
lets slip the opportunity for reiterating
his creed, is that
Tariff taxation is not limited to the
consumer of imported articles, but the
duties imposed upon such articles per
mit a corresponding increase in prico to
bo laid upon tho domestic productions
of the same kind.
Every sensible business man, xvith tho
price lists of tho different trade centers
lefore him, can see that this is not true;
xvhile it is a fact that the tariff rates
aliove quoted serx-e as a check to an in
flux of foreign grown products which
would, in the absence of such barrier,
seriously embarrass market prices in the
United States. Foreign producers pay
the tariff on such of these products as
they send hero, and hence cannot afford
to sell them as cheaply as they could
and would sell if permitted to bring
their products here free. What they
thus pay in the way of tariff goes into
the public treasury, and by so much re
duces the amount that otherwise would
bo raised from our own citizens.
But notwithstanding the fact that
foreign farmers are taxed for the privi
lege of selling their products in our
markets, they did send here during tho
last fiscal year staple farm products to
the value of nearly $14,000,000, viz:
Breadstuff's. $0,034,272. vegetables, $4,
455.354, lix-e animals. $3,270,277. After
paying oxer two and three-quarter mill
ion dollars as tariff, these were sold in
competition xvith the products of Amer
ican farms.
It is with such facts as these that free
trade attorneys should lie confronted
when pleading xvith the farmer for his
vote against the policy of protection for
American labor. The American farmer
can no more successfully compete against
the cheap grown wheat of India and
Russia than the American manufacturer
can compete xvith his foreign competitor
in making cheap goods. Tho tariff of
20 cents per bushel removed, and the
price of American grown wheat xvould
come doxvn, or foreign grown wheat
would le sold in its stead. Proof of this
lies in a comparison of market quota
tions from the commercial centers of
Europe and the United States. And
farmers will find more profit in such
comparison than in listening to the con
fusing diatribes of free trade advocates.
Washington Letter.
From our regnlar cormpondent.
Things are beginning to look like
business in the senate. The federal
election bill, as modified by the commit
tee on elections, has been reported and
placed on the calendar and Senator
Hoar has offered the resolution, which
was some time ago endorsed by the re
publican caucus, providing for a change
in the rules enabling the majority to
cut off debate upon any measure after a
reasonable time has been consumed by
debate. The adoption of this resolution
is certain; the only republican, Mr.Teller,
has openly announced his intention to
vote against it, though there is a prob
able txvo or possibly three other republi
cans may vote with the democrats
against it; the adoption of this resolu
tion means that the federal election bill
will lx passed.
Secretary Blaine has written a friend
here protesting in vigorous language
against the attempts in certain quarters
to make it appear that he is nnfriendly
to Speader Reed, and, what is more im
portant, stating that if Mr. Reed should
receive the nomination in 92 he will
gladly take the stump for him. This is
no surprise to the close friends of either
of these gentlemen, but it probably will
be to many other people, owing to the
persistently circulated stories of bad
feelings betxxeen them. It is probable
that Mr. Blaine will show his friendship
for the speaker before "92, by making
one or more speeches for him in his dis
trict during the congressional campaign.
Half of Washington, officially speak
ing, has gone to Boston to take part in
the annual encampment of the G. A. R.
The president and Secretaries Blaine.
Rusk and Noble are there. It xvas
thought last week that tho house would
take a recess for three or four days for
the purpose of allowing the mombers to
go, but, in view of the mass of import
ant business on hand, tho republican
leaders refused to agree to it; but a
great many or the members went any
way, and it will not be surprising if
there is a quorum on hand more than
once this week.
Since Mr. Carlislo went into the sen
ate the democrats of the house hax-e no
recognized leader, and the small fry
members of that party, such as Rogers
of Arkansas, and Enloe of Tennessee,
are gix-en all the opportunity they want
they want a great many to make
monkeys of themselx-es. On Saturday
Enloe tried to gain a little notoriety by
making a stump speech lieoauso one of
the door keepers, folloxving a long line
of precedents, attempted to prevent his
leaving the chamber during the taking
of a vote. He was simply laughed at for
his trouble. Democratic statesmanship,
as represented in congress, knows not h
ing higher or more patriotic than opi
sition and obstruction; it has no opinion
or even makes the pretense of having
one.
Tf congress persists, as now seems
probable, in the declared intention of
not providing for the erection of a new
building for the government printing
office at this session, it is likely that
something of a nature not entirely
agreeable will be heard from the labor
organizations of tho country, xvho sym
pathize with tho 2,000 people who are
compelled to xxrk in the present dan
gerous rookery.
The sad story told by th president's
message to congress recommending that
the balance or $15,000 appropriated for
the relief of the.sufferers by the Missis
sippi rix-er Hoods ba used to meet the
necessities of the poor and suffering
people of Oklahoma has created much
sympathy for the people of that ter
ritory. At the last cabinet Meeting recipro
city xvas discussed and endorsed. Mr.
Wanamaker surprised his colleagues by
his familiarity with tho subject; he bo
lieves it would be a great blessing to tho
people of this country.
The president has signed the "origin
al package" bill, and that much talked
of measure is a law.
