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.

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.'

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

The chapter of this city gave the visit

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

truth of the following from the Fremont

Last Wednesday four hundred to five
hundred men, women and children had
a very enjoyable outing at the B. F.
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."

the natural advantages of the grounds.
The base-ball nines were pick-ups,
