These details were brought to Tacoma by local members of the party who left the Bteamer.Elder at Kodiak. Way far Out in Custer county, the home of Silas A. Holcomb, the populists do not believe in county fusion. They have a majority there and their motto is "No democrat need apply for county office.'' They held their county convention last Monday and nominated a straight pop ulist ticket from top to bottom. Among those who addressed the convention was Mr. Holcomb himself, but the records do not show that he entered any plea for a "union of forces" for "Bryan's sake" or anybody else's sake. We get our information concerning this conven tion from the World-Herald. That pa per says that the convention was harmo nious and enthusiastic. There is food for thought in this for Platte county democrats. The conditions in Platte county are just the reverse of the con ditions in Custer. The democrats have a majority here. Why should not the Platte county democrats follow the ex ample of Custer county populists, re verse the motto making it read "No populists need apply for county office," and they, too, go it alone in county politics? There is no reason in the world why they should not If devotion to free silver and Bryan is no bar to Custer county populists running a straight ticket it should be no bar to Platte county democrats doing likewise. The populists run straight county tickets in every county where they have any show of success. Democrats are not true to themselves unless they do like wise. Let the democrats do this and we too can have a "harmonious" and enthu siastic convention. We copy the above from -the Hum phrey Democrat, edited by C. H. Swal low. It is always interesting to Jour nal readers to know what our friends, the opposition, are thinking of.and what particular line of objection to the ad ministration they are about to take. The working formula with them seems. to be: Where democrats can win the offices alone don't fuse. Ditto populists. Where the getting into office is im possible to either alone fuse. It is, however, a poor, working formu la, because it leaves out the most im portant element in the politics of a free people, viz: political principles. The common people of your party organiza tions are not "like dumb, driven cattle," and are better able to see through your selfish schemings than yon are, and you can not rely upon them as forever fall ing into your dreary vagaries for the sole purpose of boosting you into official place. Tke lebraska First. A telegram to TnE Journal Sunday morning, from F. A. Harrison, was the first announcement to the citizens of Columbus that the Nebraska First on board the transport Hancock had sailed into the harbor at San Francisco. The ship came in at 1030. At 1:30 a. m., Sunday morning the telegram was dated. C. O. Whedon, Judge Ryan and F. A. Harrison chartered a boat and got along side at 11 o'clock and exchanged greet ings with the boys. Whedon was al lowed to get on the lower end of the ladder and embrace his son. No one was allowed to get on board the ship until morning. At 7:30 Sunday morning the medical inspection was proceeding and lasted several hours. The men looked fine and were in jolly spirits. None were serious ly ill, although fourteen were unable to assemble on deck for inspection. Major Eager thought the men had gained on an average ten pounds apiece since they sailed for home. Just one man in the entire regiment had re-enlisted. Only twenty-five re mained in the Philippines to engage in business. "The Frst Nebraska had as much rough work in this war," said Colonel Mulford, "as any regiment, volunteer or regular. Our death roll in the 'Philip pines from gunshot wounds, accidents and disease is sixty-two. Including the sick and wounded who are recovering we dropped, all told, 20 men." On the Hancock are more than 100 wounded soldiers. The entire regiment is glad to know that it is to be mustered out in San Francisco. "We have had a pleasant trip," con cluded Colonel Mulford, "and it has improved the men wonderfully. Quite a number of them will have to go to their homes, but I am assured that ev ery one will soon be all right" Only one man died on. the Hancock after it left Manila, Private Richard Ralph, Battery A, Utah artillery, of ty phoid fever at Nagasaki. The men on the Hancock numbered 1,136, and include the two Utah light batteries and six discharged men from the Twenty-second regiment, U. S. A. The First regiment lost twenty-one men killed in action, '.fourteen deaths from wounds, twenty-three from disease and one from drowning. Company E, although fighting in every engagement lost but one man killed in action, Lester E. Sisson, second lieutenant April 23, 1898. Theodore Larson, private, died of disease Oct 3, "98. The regiment took up the march from the Hancock to the camp at Presidio at 9:30 Monday morning. All the whistles in the city were turned loose, busini was suspended, and everybody turned out in honor of the soldiers. F. A. Harrison, the Omaha Bee's correspond ent says: "It was no straggled body of diseased and abused men, but showed up company after company of the splen did specimens of manhood from the prairie state, walking with firm and elastic step through the city that was doing them so much honor, and with apparent pride of the country for which they had so lately been offering freely their lire's blood.' The oaaip is nicely located, the aa- !XXX1 IXSOOOC listed bmb aaviag tfteea-feot round Sibley tents, eight men to each, a stove in each teat, a solid board floor several inches above the ground; each company a substantial mess house, frants, 30x00 feet with permanent tables aad sets. The kitchen is divided off from the din ing room aad each provided with a six- hole range, boilers and kettles of all kinds. Everything is brand new. For dinner Monday the Nebraekans were the gaesta of the Oregon regiment each company being dined by the cor responding letter of the Oregonians. During the dinner hour women of Saa Francisco pinned a handsome bouquet to each Nebraska tent Leave of ab sence was granted the men of the regi ment who accepted a free invitation to attend one of the theatres. The return ed warriors divided with the show the attention of the audience. The sick men are all doing well, while the wounded who remain with their companies mostly look stronger than the men who escaped without wounds. The men have signed the pay roll and expect to get the two months' pay due this Tuesday. Most of them are out of money. Their spending money since leaving Manila has been $8 each, their share of profits from the canteen. A great number of baskets of fruit food and other delicacies were brought to the soldiers by the citizens. Upon the arrival of the regiment at camp, Governor Poynter made a short speech of welcome, which was listened to with quiet attention. We have condensed from Mr. Harrison's telegrams to the Omaha Bee of Monday and Tuesday, and close with the following interview from MAJOR KILIAX: "The army is bound to put the in surrection down, but it will take a lot more soldiers tnan we nave got over there. The bigger force is needed not for fighting, bnt for garrison purposes. It takes a lot of soldiers to defend a country from the attacks of scattering bands. I think that 50,000 soldiers are sufficient provided that they are sup plied with light artillery and are rightly managed. "Hundreds of lives have been useless ly sacrificed in the last few months be cause the authorities persisted in ac complishing through men and rifles what a rapid fire-gun would have done in half the time without any of the loss of life. It is a shame and an outrage that this is true. Every one knows the fact Some one is responsible and should be held so. The lives of men are not lightly to be thrown away. "The need is for mountain batteries, guns of small caliber that can be packed upon the back of a mule. There are no roads and heavy guns cannot be em ployed. The light ones answer just as well for clearing a jungle. ' "As a commanding officer, the saddest thing of the year for me was the death of young Lieutenant Sisson on the day Colonel Stotsenberg was killed, another severe blow for ma The lieutenant, who belonged to Company K, had been pro moted recently from the. ranks and I was deeply interested in him. The day was hot, terribly so, and we were charg ing up hill when he was shot I saw him fall and ran to him, but when I turned him over I saw that he was dead. "Everthing turned black to me, but we were advancing on the double quick, and there was no time to linger. I de tailed a man to take the body to the rear and kept on. "Before I reached the top I learned that the colonel was dead. That was a sorrowful day for the regiment 1 ttttitRal Steal. The choir of the Episcopal church on Sunday accompanied Rev. Weed to Mon roe, where they furnished music for the afternoon service. The general conference of the grand officers of the Eastern Star met in this city Wednesday, Mrs. Green G. M. of Genoa, Mrs. Mathews, A. G. M, of Fre mont Mr. Woodruff, G. P., Lincoln, aud Mrs. Wright, G. T., Schuyler, also Mr. McGiverin of Lincoln were present The chapter of this city gave the visit ing members a banquet Tuesday evening. William Davis, a pioneer citizen of this and Colfax county, died Tuesday of last week at Schuyler. He waa born in New York state September 7, 1819, when a large part of that state was a compar ative wilderness. In 1857 he settled on a piece of land just east of Schuyler. When Colfax was a portion of Platte county he was county commissioner. When the division waa made he was ap pointed as one of the first commission ers of Colfax. His wife died" in 1892. His sons Frank, Elmer and George are known to many Jouenajj readers. The Schuyler Sau says he waa "a most ex cellent citizen, a kind husband and loving father, loyal and patriotic, and a man of unblemished character and rep utation, respected by all who knew him." There is no reason to doubt the truth of the following from the Fremont Tribune. When we get the grass adapt ed to all of Nebraska'e conditions, the beginning ot a aew era ia the history of the state will have been reached: "Da vid Brown of Maple Creak brought to tne Tribune office a sample of grass aew to this country which waa grown oa his farm this year.

Munroe grounds along the Loup south of the city. Each group selected a quiet place under the trees for eating their lunch, and then enjoyed the amusements provided, such as swinging, races, wad ing, etc. Wading in the Loup along the margin of the stream, seemed to be about the most attractive sport of the day and was enticing to children of a larger growth as well as to the "kids." Prizes for the races were contributed by different business establishments of the city. We give by number the names of the successful racers, first and second 1. Fervon Drum, Alvin Dickinson. 2.

The pump, the ice-water tank and the five swings were thoughtful additions to the natural advantages of the grounds. The base-ball nines were pick-ups, scoring 6 to 1 The wading on the beach was so attractive that it took Rev. Rogers a half hour to get the racers to gether. The day was a perfect one as to weather, and it was a delightful outing to all present, who are heartily thankful to the committees of the Baptist, Cong regational, Methodist and Presbyterian Sunday schools for their large share in the enjoyment of an occasion which will be a bright and cheery picture on mem ory's walls.
