have seen the old-fashioned endless-chain
pumps at work will have a good idea of
this machine, only it is made larger, and.
instead of metal buttons for suckers,
there are larger wooden blocks attached
to the chain. The machine is very sim
ple in its construction and not liable to
get out of order. Any farmer, living
alongside a good stream of water, can,
with the aid of this simple contrivance,
irrigate land without any trouble. This
is the use Mr. Thompson will make of it,
at St. Edward, in drawing water from
the Beaver. This particular elevator
will, with one horse power, raise through
ten feet, 300 gallons of water per minute.

alleged jokes at the school entertain

he didn't know whether a mistake in the

JourkaIi's imprint was upon the pro
crams it is only necessary to say that
the printer did his work all right, leaving
the proof-reader nothing to mark. We
happen to preserve copy and so ire lay
the mistake where it belongs, if any
where, to the copyist But what will
Mr. Scott do with that other mistake of
his, when he announced that two young

THE REPUBLICANS HAVE AN ENTHU

Pall All Together Will Pat the Ticket
Where it Oaght to be-in the Swim.
At 8 o'clock Friday evening at the
Engine House hall the delegates previ
ously selected at the primaries assembled
and were called to order by Mr. Hatfield.
J. D. Stires was selected as temporary
chairman and M. K. Turner as temporary
secretary, the temporary organization
being afterwards, in dne form, made
permanent.
A committee on credentials was ap
pointed, consisting of Hatfield, Reeder
and Ragatz, who reported that the First
ward had selected delegates as follows:
John Tannahill, E. Pohl, M. K. Turner,
J. S. Hatfield, J. H. Galley and J. A.
Ernst; the Second ward, A. Dussel, H.
Hughes, J. A. Turner, W. T. Allen, H. J.
Hudson, J. D. Stires, J. G. Pollock,
Henry Ragatz; the Third ward, W. A.
McAllister, J. G. Reeder, F. H. Geer, L.
C. Voss, A. Samuelson, Clark Gray, Aug.
Iffland, C. J. Garlow and S. L. McCoy,
and their alternates, respectively, Byron
Compton, H. I. Murdock, D. T. Martyn,
P. Weberg, G. A. Scott, Charles Pearsall,
Moses Kunzelman, O. T. Roen and C.
J.Scott.
On motion the delegates present from
each ward were authorized to cast the
full vote of the ward.
The convention then proceeded to the
nomination of councilmen, the delegation
in each ward signifying their wish, the
First ward asking the privilege of with
holding their nomination until later; the
Second ward named J. D. Stires, the
Third J. S. Murdock and these were
unanimously confirmed.
For mayor, no name was mentioned
but that of Henry Ragatz; the rules
were suspended, and he was nominated
unanimously by acclamation.
In response to calls Mr. Ragats said:
"Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the
convention: I sincerely thank yon for
this evidence of the confidence you have
placed in mo. I have not sought the
nomination, and even now tried to per
suade my friends not to place my name
before, the convention. The office of
mayor is the highest within the gift of
the people of the city, and your nomina
tion would be an honor to any man. The
democrats have placed in nomination for
this office a man whom I highly esteem
as a citizen, and I assure you that in tho
campaign to follow there will on my part
be no mud-slinging, no use of "boodle,"
and, if elected, I will endeavor to do my
duty as I see it; to enforce the ordinan
ces, as I understand them; do my part
towards reducing the expenses of the city
to a minimum, and do my dnty in every
respect as a citizon and official. I thank
you for the nomination."
For city clerk, the names of O. C. Shan- I &

ing that when our own citizens were
brought before him his was not a pleas
ant task, but, he said, if you do not wish
to have the law executed upon you for
your shortcomings, don't get into my
clutches.
The nomination of A. G. Arnold for
engineer was made unanimously, by
acclamation, nnder suspension or rules.
The First ward delegates then an
nounced their choice of councilman, H.
T. Spoerry, and the nomination was made
unanimous, by acclamation, by tho con
vention. For members of the Bchool board, Carl
Kramer, W, A. McAllister and M- K.
Turner were mentioned, the two latter
being selected as the result of the first
ballot.
A central committee consisting of H.
T. Spoerry for the First ward, J. A. Tur
ner for the Second and J. G. Reeder Tor
the Third, was then selected, after which
the convention adjourned.
School Entertainment.
The High School oratorical contest
held at the opera house Friday evening
drew as large a crowd as the opera house
has held for a long time. The parents,
brothers and sisters, cousins and aunts
of Averv one of the one hundred and
eighty-one children who took part, seem
ed to be there. In short every one did
better than the audience expected. The
songs by the different classes of the
schools are worth special mention. The
children sing their parts together won
derfully well. About $90 was netted for
the library fund. Those who won first
prizes (as below) will speak in the State
contest during the North Nebraska
Teachers' Association meeting at this
place, March 30th. We give below the
relative standing as figured by the
Judges on the speeches.

City Election
It is the time of year when all good
citizensandvoters should interest them-
selves upon the subject of electing good
uiMueniuKinenionrciiy.
nc t .
It is the duty, too, of every good citi
zen to vote for the very best men ob
tainable for these offices. The office of
mayor is a responsible one, since good
government is desired by all, and wo
should elect the best men we can.
We elect two members of the school
board, and these offices are of no less
importance and should bo filled by hon
orable men and those having tho public
good at heart, since npon these men de
volve the responsibility of selecting
superintendent and teachers for tho
coming year. In the matter of electing
the superintendent mnch interest should
be taken. In this busy age parents aro
so overburdened with cares that, un
knowingly, they are inclined to shift I
much responsibility upon tho teachers,

A Tax-Payer.
Tho Union Pacific pay tar received
quite a shake-up 8nndayavening at 7:30
while coming down ony tho Albion
branth. Tho train consisted of engine
and tender, caboose and pay car. About
half-way between Monro and Oconee,
as the train was coming at a rapid rate,
the engine struck a broken rail. Tho
engine passed over bat the caboose and
other cars were brok.cn loose and thrown
from the track. - It. R Sutherland,
assistant superintendent, received seri
ous injuries in tho back, from what he
thought about three stoves falling on
him. Thomas Way, the road master, re
ceived bruises on tho limbs. The colored
porter got some bad bruises on the arms
and hands, from which he bled profuse
ly. Hugh Compton of this city, who
was the conductor, came out as sound as
a dollar, got a horse from a farmer, rode
to Monroe and telegraphed here for help.
Sup't. Sullivan is at the Thurston hotel
and will be unable to be moved for a
few days. The track was torn up about
500 feet; one of the cars rolled nearly 100
feet from the track. The wreck was
cleared off and trains run over the track
Monday afternoon.
We Sweep the World,
