The republicans of Nebraska in con vention assembled atlirm their princi ples enunciated in the platform adopted by the national republican convention at Minneapolis, and most heartily en dorse the wise, clean, firm ahd truly American administration of President Harrison. Tho republican party is the friend of labor in the factory, mill, mine and on tho farm. It will at ail times stand ready to adopt any measure that may improve its condition or promote its prosperity. Wo deplore the occurrence of any conflict between labor and capital. We denounce the agitation of demagogues designed to foment conflicts; and we most earnestly disapprove the use of private armed forces in any way to Eettie them. We believe that an ap peal to law and its officers is ample to protect property and preserve the peace ahd favor the establishment in somo form of boards or tribunals of conciliation and arbitration for the peaceful settlement of ali disputes be tween capital and labor and such ques tions as pertain to tho safety and physical and moral well being of the workingmen. We believe-in protecting tho labor ing men by all necessary and judicious legislation, and to this end we favor the enactment of suitable laws to pro tect the health, life and limb of ali employes of transportation, mining and manufacturing companies whiio engaged in the service of such com panies. The farmers of this state, who con stitute the chief element of our pro ductive wealth-creating population, are entitled to tho cheapest and best facilities for storing, shipping and marketing their products, and to this tnd we favor such laws as will give them cheap, safe and easily obtainable elevator and warehouse facilities, and wili furnish them promptly and with out discrimination at just and equitable rates proper transportation facilities for ail accessible markets. We demand the enactment of laws regulating the rate charged by express companies within this state to the end tbatsuchratcsmay.be made reason able. We favor the adoption of the amend ment to the constitution providing for an elective railroad commission em powered to fix local passenger and freight rates. We are in favor of the postal tele graph and postal savings banks sys- , tern and rural tree aeitvery. Trusts and combinations to control and unduly enhanco tho price of com modities are a great evil and we favor all proper legislation to eradicate and repress them. Tho revenue laws of this state should be carefully revised by a commission of competent persons representing the principal industries of the state to the end that all property rightfully subject to taxation may be made to pay its just proportion of the public revenues. The debt of this nation to the men who preserved it can never be paid in j n n 1 n SMi AAHt n mi imlil i n I party of Nebraska cordially and ear nestly favors a system of pensions so liberal as to properly nrovide for the living and tenderly protect from want ' the widows anu unmans of tho ceaa.

' Gallinger, Pcffer, Hansbrough, Felton, I Sanders, White and Hill as the select committee on the Pinkerton detective : force, and Messrs. llawley, Mandcrson, i Quay, Palmer and Vilas as the select committee on the reception to the Grand Army. j A message from the President, re-., turning without his-approval the Sen ate bill amending' the act of March 3, 1987, conferring on the cowrt pf claims jurisdiction in contested land patent cases, was referred to the Judiciary cofamittee. ' HAS TDK 11RKAK BKCPXf Canarta's Agents laatractea ta ftts ths Ulrlac or Ksw Xca. PrrtSBtJBdi Pa Aug-. S:Brit trtt exceedingly significant was ta private message which came from an official of the Carnegie Seecl company, limited, at Homestead to a higher manager in tho general offices in this city yester day afternoon. It. was of such import as to mean only one of two things ' either that the company has decided to make satisfactory terms with its old men or enough of its former employes have given up the fight to operate the big plant without additional outside as sistance! . . , Anyone who has noted the attitude of the Carnegie people during the last five years will admit the utter improb ability of the first proposition. As for the second the message re ferred to carries its own meaning. It was in affect: "Instruct agents to hlr no more men for Homestead. We art all right pow:n ........ General Superintendent Potter claims that there was a break in the ranks of the strikers in the mechanical depart ment last night and that twenty-five of the best skilled workmen returned to work. The men had a committee at the gate when the employes went in j'esterday and they assert positively that but eight of the 1,200 men in tffe mechan ical department havo broken away. Thcj- have been preparing for a break, they say, and arc highly gratified ut the result of their endeavors to prevent one. t It is understood that there are now several strikers in the mill influencing the non-unionists to quit. This plan was adopted with a signal success in 1882, when a whole turn of strikers went back to work and soon organized all the non-unionists, taking them out on another fight. The Alleghany Kcssemcr steel-plant did not resume operations at Duquesne yesterday with non-union men. None were brought in, and the strikers say there is no use in the firm trying a game of bluff with them. Seven hundred nnd fiftj of the Duquesne sicel workers arc thoroughly skilled workmen. The company has posted notices giving the old men until Wed nesday evening to return to work. II. C. Frick is entirely out of danger. His physician made that announcement yesterday, but said it was not likely that he would be down to his office this week. APPEAL TO GREAT BRITAIN. Canadu TVII1 May a Walling Game Iu tho Matter of Canal Tolls. Ottawa, Ont, Aug.3. The Dominion government will play a waiting game in the matter of the canal tolls dispute. Nothing will be done nor will a full cabinet meeting be convened until it is learned what action President Harrison will take. The i&sue of the Presiden tial proclamation instead of resulting in a policy of reprisals will be followed by a strong protest to Great Britain that the United States is violating the treaty of Washington.

Gov. Winans yesterday issued a proclama tion convening the Legislature of the State in special session Aug. 5 for the purpose of rearranging the Senate dis tricts and apportioning anew the Rep resentatives among the counties and districts. The date fixed by the Gover nor is earlier than was at first expected but the time is short and it was ncccs sary'that the Secretary of State and boards of supervisors have all the time possible in which to prepare for the election after new acts are passed.

Encircling the chairs were the regulation seats of a circus for spectators and the big tent was packed to overflowing with a good batufed. enthusiastic crowd.

Railways in this state shall be classified and rates adjusted in pro portion to the tratfic, and to the end that exact justice may be done to all. We are opposed to the restoration of the sugar bounty, in any form, by the stale of Nebraska. We demand of our next legislature passage of an act to prescribe tho mode of payment of obligations of debt contracted, to bo paid in money, ns follows: Be it enacted, etc.. That from and after the passage of this act ail obli gations contracted to be payable in money thall be payable in any money authorized by the United Suites govern ment, and any stipulation to the con trary fn said contract or obligation i. hereby declared void. We demand the submission of an amendment to the constitution of this state providing thai the permanent Mhnul fund may be iuar.ed to citizens uf Nebraska on first mortgage oa pro. during real estate at an interest of not more than 5 "ber cent as is now done in many of the states of the union. - We are opposed to a system of gov ernment that allows corporations or individuals of the United States to employ Pinkertom or any other armed force tO idtit&)dato and coerce organ izea labor. We favor such legislation as fhtrll require all differences between em ployers to be submitted to a commit tee of arbitration and the enforcement of the decision of such committee.

READY FOR KNICHTS. raslilriff reparations for tWe Reception ! 'tit ii6 templars! I Dn.WER, Col., Aug. 5: Tnis city I fairly teems with good-natured rivalry on the part of interested citizens anxi ous to excel in decorating business blocks and homes in honor of the com ing Knights Templar conclave. Ar tists from the principal cities of the United States arc on the ground and arc rustling to fill orders. Already banners are flying, emblems are dis played in profusion, and the general colors of the order meets one's eye on every sido. The hotel committee has been ac tively at work for nearly a year syste matically arranging every detail in an ticipation of the immense gathering. The committee divided the city into districts, and a house to house canvass has bccrl made. A system of books waa used. By Saturday every aValla blc room and bed in the city will be" taken and registered. Although some 0,000 Sir Knights and their friends have been located, there will be no trouble in placing l.-t,000 to i'C.COj j more. Among all the committees none have done more laborious or better work for the conclave. TROUBLE EXPECTED. Americana Reported to Re Encroaching n the Threo-BIlIo Limit. Halifax, N. S., Aug. 5. The air Is full of rumors of American vessels fish ing inside the three-mile' limit. A re port was current that the cruiser Vigilant had captured a vessel fish ing in prohibited waters along the 'western coast of Halifax, but United States Counsel General Frye has no confirmation of the report. A special from Digby says mackerel have struck in along the shore of St. Mary's Bay, and that traps and seines arc taking from fifty to one hundred barrels oi No. 1 fish each tide. This a great temptation to American mackerel men, who are hovering sus piciously near the three-mile limit. In consequence the Dominion government has dispatched the cruiser Kingfisher to the scene of the alleged peaching, and some seizures mar be looked for. THE PLAGUE IS WORSE. Schools In Russia Closed Uecause of Cholera. St. Petersburg, Aug. 4. The gov ernment has ordered all the schools in the country to be closed until Sept. 1 on account of cholera. Medical lec tures in St. Petersburg will also be sus pended until November in order that fctndcnts may remain at home and as sist in combating the scourge. One death has occurred here from Asiatic cholera. At Nijni-Novgorod the disease is decreasing, and many of the workmen who fled in fright when the epidemic was at its height are re turning to their homes. The attend ance at the fair has been small owing to the dread of the disease. Cholera has appeared in the govern ment of Kurek in the southern part of European Russia. It is the most densely populated of any government in Rus sia, having an area of 17,382 square miles and a population of about 2,000, 000 perbons.
