Bepablicaa County Convention.
Pursuant to adjournment, the nnder
frigned hereby calls the county conven
tion to meet again at the court house,
Columbus, Saturday, August 13, 1892, at
1 p. m., for the purpose of placing in
nomination: one county attorney; one
representative for Platte county; dele
gates to float representative convention,
with Nance; delegates to senatorial con
vention, with Colfax, and for transacting
any other business properly coming be
fore the convention.
C. H. Sheldon,
Chairman Central Committe:
Over 50,000 persons died of cholera
in Russian Caucasus in July.
O. M. Rem was nominated for congress
by the independents of the Sixth district.
"Where was I at?" will be the ques
tion of the whole democratic party after
the election.
"The Prophet and the ballot box
both stuffed that is the democratic war
cry," says Tom Reed.
A free press? Yes, of course, but
why should that mean license to advo
cate murder in lieu of the enforcement
of law?
"Wise, prudent, judicious," iB the ver
dict pronounced upon the administra
tion of Benjamin Harrison, by the com
mon people.
"I believe that our legislation should
l)e as broad as our territory, should not
be for classes, but should be in the in
terest of all our people." Harrison.
D. S. Cole, a prominent citizen of
Hastings, was discovered Tuesday morn
ing of last week, with a bullet hole
under the right ear. No clue to the
murderer.
Chairman Murphy of the N. Y. state
democratic committee told Mr. Whitney
the other day that if the election was to
come off now Cleveland would lose New
York by 125,000 votes.
The Irish voters, alienated by Cleve
land's foreign policy while president,
will, in all probability, in the close states
of Indiana, New York and Connecticut,
carry those states against him.
The democrats might have known
better than to provoke Watson of Geor
gia to prove his charge of drunkenness
. against members of congress, as he did
by Otis, White, Halverson, Davis, But
ler, Shell, Clover, Baker and Kem. Miss
Bessie Dwyer testified to seeing ono man
drunk while making a speech on the
floor.
No sensible or patriotic American
will ever favor anarchy. Security here
to life, liberty and property is only con
sistent with respect to and observance
of law, and the natural rights which law
is designed not to overthrow, but to
fortify. Anarchy is the very worst op
posite of ourform of government, and
every phase of venture that even hints
or squints that way, should be chal
lenged for cause.
. Congressman Bourse Cockran, in
his speech the night Cleveland was nom
inated, gave slight utterance to the
opposition of old democratic 'soldiers
when he declared there were 25,000 such
, ia New York who would never vote for
Cleveland because of his gratuitous in
sult to their patriotism. Is it 6trange
that those who hate pensioners, favor
Cleveland? The editor of the Durham
(N. C.) Globe is one of these, and a very
ardent supporter of Cleveland. "The
fellows who receive pensions, voluntarily
went into the war not for love of conn-
try, but for the money they were prom
ised and which they received fourteen
dollars a month." "The pension fraud
is the greatest of the age and Clevelantl
struck the beggar in the face. He
SHOULD BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO HIT 'EM
again." The southern brigadier takes
not kindly to the pensioner, but he
should endeavor to hide his wrath.
Representative-Funston, of Kansas,
made, a telling hit in preparing the mi.
' nority report of the house committee on
agriculture, on the effect of the present
tariff law upon agriculture, when he
said that "the fact that the democrats
in the house, having a majority over t'. e
republicans of 153, are to adjourn with
out having made any effort to repeal the
McKinky tariff law should settle the
question as to whether or not in he
Opinion of the majority of the honse, the
law is wrong and oppressive. That the
agriculturist is having a hard time no
one will dispute, but we cannot, howev
er, look back to any better times, no to
so good, excepting, of course, war tinK-k.'
The report also directs attention tc lae
decrease in. the cost of living sinew' tae
iSfcKialey law went into effect, arid

Parte Freah Cable Xewa from rorelga
laaae.
New York. Aujt. 8. A cable from.
Moscow to a morning paper says: At a
grand ball arranged by the officers'
corps of the Czar's body hussars, held
here to-night at the Casino, First Lieut
Ivan Rattovitch suddenly stepped into
the middle of the room, drew a pistol
from his dolman, took deliberate aim
and shot Prince Nicholas Susstovitch,
a brother officer, who was waltzing
with the lieutenant's affianced.
The Prince, who received the bullet
in his heart, fell dead instantly, 'drag
ging his partner with him to the
ground. The assassin, amid the wild
est excitement, stepped over the body
of his comrade, raised his affianced t
head by the hair and then blew his
own brains out. All this happened in
less than thirty seconds." So quickly
were the shots fired that interference
was impossible.
The cries of the terrified women gave
the alarm to those in other parts of the
hall. Medical assistance, which was
at once procured, was of no avail in the
cases of Prince Susstovitch and Ratto
vitch. The young lady was with diffi
culty dragged from the death-grip of
her murdered partner. She is now
lying at the point of death.
The deed has created the wildest ex
citement in Russia's upper circles,
where all parties concerned were well
known. The Czar has ordered a
special report to be forwarded to him
by telegraph.
The murdered Prince had been
warned beforehand by Rattovitch not
to attempt dancing with the latter' s
intended. It was a clear case of jeal
ousy, though there was apparently no
ground for any suspicions on the part
of the murderer.
HASTEN HOME RULE.
The Irish Members Are Confident of
Victory.
London, Aug. 8. The series of con
ferences between the leaders of the
Irish party and Mr. Gladstone lias defi
nitely resulted in such a degree of
mutual confidence as promises to
expedite greatly the advent of home
rule in Ireland. The acceptance
by Mr. John Morley of the post
of Chief Secretary for Ireland was
a point upon which the chiefs of the
McCarthyite faction laid considerable
stress. Mr. Morley himself was re
luctant to accept the Secretaryship,
desiring some other post in the Cabi
net which would impose upon him less
arduous duties, and only agreed to ac
cept it when it was represented to him
by Mr. Gladstone that no other Minis
ter would so fully command the sup
port of the Irish members of Parlia
ment. In an interview Mr. John Dillon ex
pressed the satisfaction of the Irish
party at the prospect of Mr. Morley
holding the post during the critical
period in the progress of the home rule
bill. Referring to the reports printed
in some of the English papers that cer
tain Irish members might take office
under Mr. Morley Mr. Dillon said that
such a thing was next to impossible.
No member of the party, he declared,
would dare to accept a place under any
English government.
When asked whether he could com
municate what modifications Mr. Glad
stone has made in his home rule bill,
Mr. Dillon replied that he was not at
liberty to say anything except that
the bill is likely to be one that Mr.
Parnell would have accepted, adding:
"We will not take anything less. Mr.
Gladstone knows that our position in
the matter is definite and inflexible.
He has pledged himself to place home
rule in front of all other measures and
to keep it there until it is passed. I
believe we can rely upon his intention
to do so."
Lowell Memorial SabicrJptlon.
London, Aug. 8. Leslie Stephen
writes to the Times that the subscrip
tion has been opened for the proposed
Lowell memorial. He says that the
committee haveing the matter in charge
have already .received more than suffi
cient support to insure the insertion of
the windows as planned in the chapter
house of Westminster abbey. The
character of the commemorative tablet
to be placed under the windows, he
adds, depends upon the amount of sub
scriptions. Are Not Burled Alive.
Vienna, Aug. 8. Dr. Frey, an expert
in matters pertaining to cholera, writes
to the newspapers that in the experi
ence of himself and other doctors the
notion prevailing among ignorant per
sons that cholera patients were often
buried alive may be attributed to the
fact that three hours after death the
bodies of victims of the scourge become
distorted by muscular contractions,
often lasting for hours.
Naval Stores Explode.
Paris, Aug. 8. Extensive naval
stores attached to the Toulon . arsenal
were set on fire to-day'by an incendi

under control but not until immense
loss had been caused in the stores.-

MEXICO'S FINANCE.
It la la a l'oor Court It lea. According to
Gea. SaadevaL
El Paso, Texas, Aug. 8 The Times
to-day contains a long interview with
Gen. Luis Sandoval, in which the revo
lutionist leader scouts the idea of Texas
deputy marshals arresting Catarino
Garza, but the most important feature
of the interview is a discussion of the
financial condition of Mexico.
He says that the affairs of Mexico
arc not thoroughly understood by the
people of the United States, because
the newspaper correspondents are sub
sidized by the Mexican government.
The actual condition of the country is.
one of financial embarrassment. Gen.
Diaz' lack of knowledge of governing
the country has led to this crisis. He
mortgaged the future of Mexico to the
extent of $30,000,000 for the purpose of
building railroads,and now these roads,
by their exorbitant rates, have killed
the prosperity of the country.

consequence of them Canadian exhibits
will not receive fair treatment and
have positively declined to exhibit.

Last week while the 10:30 train
waa returning with excursionists from
Beatrice going to Marysville, Kas.,
the Union Pacific depot at Blue Springs
was broken into and an attempt made
at blowing open the safe. The men
first entered a blacksmith s sobp and
with the tools taken from there
broke into the depot. Then they at
tached a large fuse to the safe but only
succeeded in breaking off the outer
door; the money box, which contained
$50. was not entered as the train was
seen coming back.

"I have just recovered from" a sec
ond attack of the grip this year," says
Mr. James O. Jones, publisher of the
Leader, Mexia, Texas. "In the latter
case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I think with considerable suc
cess, only being' in bed a little over two
days, against ten days for tho firet at
tack. The second attack I am satisfied
would have been equally as bad as the
first but for the use of this remedy, as I
had to go to bed in about six hours after
being 'struck' wih it, while in tho first
case I was able to attend to business
about two days before getting 'down.' "

M Caatoria is an excellent medicine for chil
drea. Mothers have repeatedly told me of its
good effect upon their childrea."
Da. O. C. Osgood,
Lowell, Mass.
" Castoria Is the best remedy for childrea of
which I am acquainted. I hope the day is sot
far distant when mothers will consider the real
Interest of their children, and use Castoria in
stead of the varionsqnack nostrums which are
destroying their IotM ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup aad other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves."
