The repuMicans or Nehraslca reiterate
ami cordially indorse the fundamental
principles of the republican party as
euueiated lv sueeefsive national repub
lican conventions from 1CC to ISSN and
helieve the republican party capable of
dealing with every vital issue that con
cerns the American people, wherever the
rank and file of the republican party are
untrammeled in the exercise of their po
litical rights.
Wo heartily indorse the wise and con
nerrntiro administration of President
Harrison. We also fully approve the
wise action of the republican members
of both houses of congress in fulfilling
the pledges of the party in legislation
iijMin 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 heartil indorse the action of
the 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 because of the opposition to all
just pension legislation by a democratic
congress; yet wo do not regard it jis the
full recognition of the great debt of ob
ligation which the government anil the
people owe to those heroic men by rea
son of whose sacrifice and devotion the
union was saved and the go eminent
restored. We do further repeat our
declaration in favortif just and fair serv
ice pensions graded according to length
of service for even soldier and sailor
who fought in behalf of the union, and
by reason of wIiom' services and devotion
the government now exists.
We hold an honest, popular ballot
and equal representation of all the peo
pie to be the foundation of our icpubli
ean government ami demand ellcetive
legislation to secure the integrity ami
purity of elections, which are the foun
dation of all public authority.
We favor such revision of the election
laws of the state as will guarantee to
every voter the greatest possible secrecx
in the casting of his ballot and r-ceuie
the punishment of any who attempt the
corruption or intimidation of voters, and
we favor the Australian ballot stein
for incorporated towns and cities, appli
cable both to primary ami regular elec
tions so far as it can conform to our
organic law.
We oppose land monopoly in even
form, demand the forfeiture of unearned
land grants and the reservation of the
public domain for homesteaders only.
We recognize the right of labor to or
ganize for its protection and by all law
ful and jK'aceful means to secure to
itself the greatest reward for thrift and
industry. We are in favor of laws com
pelling railroads ami manufacturers to
use all appliances which science supplies
for the protection or laborers against
accident. We demand the enactment of
a law defining the liability of einploei
for injuries sustained liv employes in
cases where proper safeguards hae not
lieen used in occupations dangerous to
life, limb or health; railway and other
public corHrations should be subject
to control through the legislative power
that created them. Their undue inllu
euce 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 small be taxed
the same as that or individuals; that the
provisions of our constitution, requiring
the assessment of franchises shall be en
forced by suitable legislation.
Wo 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 wo further demand that the next
legislature shall abolish all passes or
free trans'iortatioii on railroads, except
ing for employes of the railroad com
panies. We demand the establishment of the
system of iostal telegraphy, aiid request
our members in congress toote 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 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 imiort 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 nation to one of the highest of any
country in the world, and its efforts to
fully remonetize 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 for storage should be
declared public warehousemen and com-
pelled under penalty to receive, store,
ship and handle the grain of all persons
alike, without discrimination. The state
regulating charge for storago nml in
spection. All railroad companies should
be required to switch, haul, receive and
ship the grain of all persons alike, with
out discrimination.
Wo favor tlio enactment of more strin
gent usury laws and their rigid enforce
inent under severe penalties.

The republican and people's independ
cut candidate for county attorney was
born in Clearfield count . Pennsylvania,
Dec. US. ISTiC.
His father being engaged in the lum
ber business, this was also the occupa
tion of oiing Albert until he was nine
teen years old, at which time he came
west, attending the Western college at
Toledo, la., of which his uncle, 11. li.
Kephart. was president. and of which he
is a graduate.
Under the direction r Hon. F. C.
Hormel, a prominent attorney of Cedar
Rapids. Iowa, he studied law, and was
admitted to practice in Plymouth coun
ty. He practiced in Iowa courts till
1SS0, when he came to Albion, Neb.,
when he had an extensive practice until
last rail, when health failed him, and he
spent the winter months on the Pacific
coast. Karly last spring he returned to
Nebraska, and with .1. D. Stires, esq.,
opened a law office in this city.
By his acquaintances here Mr. Albert
is regarded as a young man of excep
tionallv good ability, a bright lawyer.
and one who will be a credit to himself
and an honor to the political parties
which have selected him as their candi
date for the important otlico of county
attorney.
Prohibition State Ticket.
Thursday at Lincoln the prohibition
ists put in nomination the following
state ticket: Dr. B. L. Pine of Lincoln,
governor; Chas. Watts of Omaha, secre
tary of state: A. Fitch, jr.. of Merrick,
auditor; II. W. Hardy of Lancaster,
state treasurer; Judge F. P. Wigton of
Madison, attorney general; C. Olson of
Dawson, land commissioner; Mrs. M. R.
Morgan of Alma, superintendent of in
struction. Considerable time was spent
in securing a man to head the ticket,
after which the lists were readily filled.
The platform adopted favors woman
suffrage: government ownership of rail
roads and telegraph systems and service
at cost; a just service pension; election
of president by a direct vote of the peo
pie; the Australian system of voting; a
reduction of the hours of labor: the con
trol of all corporations in the interest
of the whole people; national constitu
tional prohibition. The platform op
poses any law that in any way legalizes
the traffic of intoxicating liquors as a
beverage. The distinctive feature of the
party is in the following plank: "con
stitutional and statutory prohibition, in
.state and nation. of the manufacture and
sale of alcoholic beverages is the most
vital issue before the American people
and the first step toward securing re
forms." The most interesting part of the con
vention was the discussion, etc.. when it
was proposed and urged by some of the
delegates that there b no ticket put
into the field by the prohibitionists.
Judge AblMitt of Saline led the projMKSi
tion, and (!co. Scott of Clay opposed.
Ri:rri!UNs of the Third district will
look with unusual interest to the Dodge
county convention at Fremont on the
10th. as that may (tossihly settle the
question as to whether the present in
cumbent will be a candidate. After the
state convention (where Richards, a
Dodge county man was selected as the
candidate for governer), it seemed the
almost universal opinion that Dorsey
would not 1m a candidate for congress,
that is to say, the tolitical elements
were tending to some other than a
Dodge county man for that otlico. Since
the other party nominations for the dis
trict have been made, however, Dorsey
stock has risen, and, as matters now
stand, he may lie the candidate of the
party, notwithstanding the rather awk
ward position in which that would leave
mine of the republicans of Dodge coun
ty. If the district convention, when
assembled, desires to nominate Mr. Dor
sey, any side issues or merely personal
considerations will not probably be
allowed to interfere with the wish; this
action of the convention would also
place the other faction at Fremont all
right, because it would lx, not they, but
the republicans of the district who de
mand Mr. Dorsey s renomination. In
any event, let harmony prevail.
AcvoitiHNO. to the August corn crop
report of the department of agriculture,
"the Eastern states all give promise of a
fair crop, the Middle states show a
larger reduction and Maryland indicates
considerable injury. From Virginia to
Florida the state averages are 90 or
more, which is promising. Alabama and
Mississippi fall below 90, Texas, Arkan
sas and Tennessee between 70 and SO.
In the northern tier of states, from
Michigan west, the averages are relative
ly high. Indeed, the only states that
fall lelow the general average (715.3) are
Arkansas and Tennessee, in the south,
and seven states in the west, viz., Ken
tucky. Ohio. Indiana, Hlinois, Missouri.
Kansas and Nebraska. Unfortunately
these states usually represent more than
half the value of the crop."

Cai County Filled With the Kirac-t lepos-its-tJreat
Excitement.
The discovery a few days since of iron
ore in immense quantities in Mount
Pleasant precinct in the southern part
of Cass county was the cause of consid
erable excitement, but when the two
farmers, J. C. Smith and George Edsoni
upon whose land the discovery was made
returned from Omaha bearing the news
that the specimens they had taken to
that city for analyzation had proved to
contain 10 per vent of pure inm the citi
zens of that neighborhood have been al
most wild over the intelligence. The
croppings of the ore are not confined to
the farms mentioned but exist all over
the precinct and am certain to pan out
wonderfully. Tho development of the
find is of vast importance to Cass coun
ty and to Nebraska at large. Under the
present system the cost per car for ship
ment to Omaha from western ore mines
is S7.", while from tho new Eldorado it
is but S3. This is an immense saving in
freight, while the large er cent of iron
found in the ore is certain to create a
great Imkuii in iron milling in this sec
tion. A stock company is being formed
to hasten tho development of tho new
mines and a fortune is certain to land
owners in that section.
On: distillery people are having more
trouble. A revenue collector came up
from Omaha last week and found the
store house had been broken open and
l barrels of whisky gone. Tho deputy
marshal came up and took V. It. Lewis,
Allen Lewis and llerliert Warner, act-used
or breaking into the store house
ami stealing whisky, and six others as
witnesses to Omaha. They took all the
whisky from the store house and the
stills from the distillery. Whatever are
we to do, with the whisky gono and old
Jim in Virginia? Some consolation: We
have our drugstore left, ir we can only
keep track of the pass word. -1 Meadow

Tun Nebraska farmer who this year
raises twenty or twenty-live bushels of
com to the acre will receive as much
money for it as he received last year for
his sixty bushels. Hogs and cattle will
increase in price, and, taken as a whole,
it is safe to predict that tlio shortage of
corn will not lo materially felt. Oats
have not yielded as many bushels as in
preceding years, but careful estimates
show that there will bo more than
enough for homo consumption, and with
the possible exception of the potato crop
the product of Nebraska will lie worth
as much in dollars and cents as formerly.-

Tun state conventions have all been
held in Nebraska, we believe, and we
suppose that after tho republican, con
gressional convention of this district
shall have decided upon their nominee
for congress, the contest will begin in
this district with energy, and continue
up to the evo of election. Hot weather
is not a very good time for the excite
ments of a political campaign.

Fioni our ri-fjular enrn-'iouileiit.l
The republican senators, governed by
the good, hard, horse, sense, which has
helled tho party over many moro seri
ous obstacles in the past, have compro
mised the differences of opinion that ex
isted between them and which for sever
al days furnished pegs for the democrats
to hang hojes of a permanent split in
tho party iiMn. An order of business
has been agreed upon that will receive
the vote of every republican senator. It
provides for tho early passage of the
tariff bill, tho anti lottery bill, ami as
many bills affecting public buildings
and lands as iossible; it also provides
that the federal election bill shall lie tho
first business of the next session of con
gress. This action is highly gratifying to tho
republicans, for even the staunchest ad
vocates of tho federal election bill admit
that it would not be possible to pass the
measure in time to have it go into effect
at the coining congressional election?;
so that nothing could be gained by pri
longing tho present session in order o
pass it, while there is n very urgent ne
cessity felt in all branches of business
throughout the country, to have the
tariff bill become a law a& soon as pos
sible. The democrats, however, are anything
else but gratified; they had been con
fidently figuring on holding the balance
of power in deciding the fate of the
tariff and federal election bills in the
senate, and, very naturally, they are
very much disgruntled to see that the
majority presents a 6olid front instead
of being divided into two factions, as
they had exjiected and hoped.
There is another thing, too, which is
worrying the democrats no little. Tho
action of the senators of that party in
needlessly delaying and obstructing the
consideration of the tariff bill has
aroused the ire of the business interests
of the country, and the obstructionists
are hearing from it in such plain and
unmistakable terms that Senator Gor
man, the democratic commander-in-chief,
has felt called upon to make a
public statement to the effect that dem
ocrats were willing to join the republi
cans in voting for a resolution setting
an early day for the vote on the tariff
bill. A week ago the democrats wero
boasting that they would talk on tho
tariff bill until December, unless the
senate rules were changed.
The present outlook is that tho tariff
bill will pass the senate about Septem
ber 10, probably several days earlier,
and that congress will adjourn about
the last week in September. That is, of
course, supposing that tho house will
make any extraordinary delay in acting
upon tho conference report of the senate
amendments to the tariff bill, which will
include ono on reciprocity.
The investigation of charges against
Commissioner of Pensions Raum, prac
tically fell through before it got started.
It seems to have been more of an at
tempt to break down tho credit of Gen.
-Raum as a private business man than to
prove that ho has been guilty of any
official wrong doing. The committee
has adjourned to September 1, and no
one has the slightest doubt that its re
port will exonerate Gen. Riiiim.
The senate gave up Saturday to
eulogies upon tho late Senator Beck.
Senators Blackburn, Ingalls. Allison and
Vest were the principal speakers.
According to the promise recently
made to the representatives of the labor
organizations by Speaker Reed and

urday of this week for the consideration
of bills from the labor committee.
The resolution which has already

Representative O'Neill of Pennsylvania,
asked unanimous consent for its consid
eration Saturday, but Representative
(jiiinn of New York, objected. No one
doubts that the remains will be brought
here eventually.
The anti-lottery feeling seems to be
growing among the eoplc in congress.
Representative Hansbrough of North
Dakota, has introduced a joint resolu
tion providing that neither the United
States nor any state shall pass any law
authorizing the establishment or main
tenance of any lottery or company for
tho distribution of prizes by chance.
Senator Rusk, who was largely instru
mental in getting the bill passed, thinks
tho bill for tho inspection of all meats
intended for exportation which is now
in the hands of the president, will, as
soon as it becomes a law, mako a large
increase in the demand for American
meat in foreign countries. He is also
very much interested in the bill regulat
ing the sale and manufacture of com
pound lard, and tho taxing dealers in
options, both of which are to be dispos
ed of this week.

An Appeal from Nebraska Half Year .Meet
ing of Friends. Held Sth Month --Titli.ttil.
It is the judgment of this meeting that
the Society of Friends, having always
been active in temperance reform, and
realizing tho need of organized effort in
order to promote the adoption of the
adoption of the amendment to tho stat
constitution, prohibiting tho nianuff
ture and sale of intoxicating liquors
within the state of Nebraska, should, in
our capacity as tho business head of the
Society in this state, earnestly urge
Friends in their scattered homes to ex
ert their full influence to further this
most worthy cause. We heartily endorse
the various temperanco movements .in
our state and recommend our members
not only to vote for the amendment but
to use all honorable means in accordance
with our discipline to encourage others
to do the same. We are encouraged by
the thought that worthy Friends every
where aro sending up prayers to tho
loving Father of all, that his strength
and comfort may rest upon us in the
struggles of today as they have in those
of former times, sending us forth brave
unto battle, in the full hopo of victory
in his own good time.
On behalf of the meeting.

In a recent article in the Youth's Com
panion, on "how io euro a cold," the
writer advises a hot lemonade to bo tak
ot at bed time. It is a dangerons treat
ment, especially during tho severe cold
weather of tho winter months, as it opens
tho pores of tho skin and leaves tho sys
tem iu such a condition that another and
much moro sovero cold is almost certain
to bo contracted. Many years constant
use and tho experience of thousands of
persons of all ages, has fully demotistrat
ed that there is nothing better for a
severe cold than Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. It acts in perfect harmony
with nature, relieves tho lungs, liquefies
the tough tenacious mucous, making it
easier to expectorate, and restores the
system to a strong and healthy condi
tion. Fifty cent bottles for sale by all
