It is estimated that there were a mil lion and a half strangers in New York city Dewey Day. The republican party of Nebraska is fully up to its highest standard of effec tive party work in this year of grace, 1899. The Dingley tariff law has evidently been a good thing for the country at large, just as republican legislation has always been. Jesse H. Lacet, an old citizen of Omaha, died Friday last Funeral ser vices at the house at 10:30 Monday, Dean Fair officiating. Mbs.

Fobiieb United States Senator James Harlan, the only survivor of Abraham Lincoln's cabinet is lying at the point of death at his home in Mount Pleasant, Iowa. He is suffering from asthma and kidney troubles. It is now thought that the exports of the calendar year 1899 are likely to be the largest in our history, notwithstand ing the doleful predictions of our polit ical opponents ever since the Dingley law went into force. Last Wednesday morning, fire de stroyed the old Occidental hotel at Lin coln, a two-story and a half frame, built when the capital was removed to Lin coln. During the past few months it had been on fire five or six times. Mondat night of last week the log cabin studio of Mrs. E. W. Peattie, near South Haven, Mich., was burned to the ground, destroying more than fifty of her unpublished manuscripts, including two unfinished novels and twenty lec tures. Theee spans of horses were stolen last month near Stark and another team later near Centerville, in York county. Two of the teams have been found at O'Neill, where they had been sold, one for $190, the other for 1200. The thieves got sway. '" Dkmockats, why not make M. B. as eleetioa' unanimous? There is Mstaoa of his integrity none of his r ability for the position. Holcomb is not satisfactory to you, and Reese is the choice already of many of your fel low democrats who know the two men personally and welL Gbobqe Gannon's attorney at Omaha tried to clear his client of burglary be eaase he did not break open the door, it beisg unlocked and standing ajar. Judge Baker ruled that if the prisoner merely raised the door latch or turned the knob to enter for the purpose of rob- Vbary he was guilty of burglary. The Blair Pilot questions the honesty of W.

On of Mr. Holcossb's campaign ar ils oat is Nebraska is that he has the state much money. This probably Biitsns- that be might have used store of the state's money for other i and charged it up .for house was actually the case. The - point is worthy of consideratioB. Sioux CStyJoarsaL ' jSummaL The republican party stands for hon est money and the chance to earn it by honest toil William McEinley. The nomination of Hon. M. B. Reese, i Dean of the 8tate University Law School, for supreme judge by the re publican convention is the very best that could have been made, and is a death blow to Silas A. Holcomb's chances for election to that high and honorable position. Judge Reese is well known by all parties to be an able, hon orable and incorruptible jurist and a christian gentleman. His nomination by acclamation, while not an avowed candidate, adds great strength to the ticket. He did not seek the nomina tion, but the office sought him, and it was not known whether he would accept the nomination until he was consulted by telephone. By giving up his place as dean of the law school for a seat on the supreme bench he would give up a salary of S3.000 a year for one of J&500. Judge Reese's nomination leaves no sore spots, ana ms election u uui 4uiuu of doubt Seward Blade. The nomination of Judge Reese for the suprMM baah,was a. arise selection snd one that is bound to lead the party to victory this fall This nomination is one that appeals most strongly to AVArv citizen of the state, whether he belongs to the republican party or .not. Judge Reese is a lawyer who is the peer of any man in Nebraska. He has held with great credit many minor posi tions leading up to the bench, upon which he sat with eminent distinction for six years. Since retiring from that place ten years ago he has been in the active practice of law and at the head of the law department of the state university. He is therefore up to date in the profession which he graces. Madison Chronicle. Dubinq the coming winter the Hon, Thomas. B. Reed, ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives, will be a fre quent contributor to The Saturday Evenincr Post of Philadelphia. Mr. Reed's papers will, in the main, deal with national affairs, and will rorm a most important and interesting contri bution to the history of American poli tics. Mr. Reed's first article, unlike those to follow, crosses the Atlantic for its subject and tells how the procedure of French law courts, and especially those involved in the Dreyfus case, impresses an American lawyer. This paper, entitled Paris and French Jus tice, will appear in The Saturday Even ing Post of October 7. If anything, Judge Holcomb six years ago promised better for the bench than ex-Governor Holcomb today. Six years ago he was serving as a district judge and had not yet made his damaging record of rank partisanship, flagrant favoritism and gross neglect of duty in the executive office. His career as gov ernor instead of commending him as qualified to act the impartial judge af- tgrtlm proof positive that on Um bonoh, as in the executive chair, he would be the pliant tool of the unscrupulous pop- ocratic machine upon which the cor porations have constantly pulled the strings. Omaha Bee. The following from the Schuyler Sun, is a sample paragraph concerning the repnbican candidate for supreme judge. Tliey are all saying about tne same thing in substance: "No better selection for supreme judge of the state could have been made by the republicans than when they named Hon. M. B. Reese. He is a life-long republican of anti monopolist tendencies, is a judge of recognized ability and is a man of the highest honor and integrity. His can didacy will appeal to the conservative thinking vote of the state, regardless of party, and he will be elected by a rous ing majority. Ox the edge of the Arkansas field, the rush for mineral lands in the South Missouri counties is especially notice able. A little more than a year ago Ozark county had 109,000 acres of land subject to homestead or cash purchase at $1.25 an acre. This has been re duced to 78,510. In other counties the same activity has been shown. Home steaders are hastening to prove up and get their patents. All kinds of land are in demand, and the squatter is hustling to make sure of his farm, and to be in a position to sell to the mineral pros pector, so says the St. Louis Globe Democrat. Ralph J. Pcgslet was born in Peru, Illinois, came to Nebraska in 1885, grad uated at High school at Genoa, finished his academical work at Gates college. Assisted his father on farm for two years, and took a business course at Fremont. Studied law in office for a time and then went to Lincoln law college, and while there the call for volunteers was made. He enlisted in Co. K, First Nebraska National Guards, was mustered into the U. 8. service, took part in the capture of Manila and other engagements in the insurrection of the Filippinos. The islands which have recently come under control of the United States were annually importing more than a hun dred million dollars' worth of goods, and of this large sum we were furnish ing less than 18 per cent. We will se cure hereafter the greater part of this trade, and by making good government and peace sure to them, their business ability will be strengthened and traffic largely increased. We are indebted to ex-Congressman Maxwell for a copy of the Memorial ad- aresses on tne lire and character of Nelson Dingley, delivered in the house of representatives and senate, Feb. 11 March 1, 1899. He was one of our great country's honored citizens, leading a life of usefulness all his days, s model for the young men of this country to pattern after. An excellent recapitulation of the Dreyfus case is contributed to the Re view of Reviews by Mr. W. T. Stead, in the form of a "chronicle." The Review also publishes a series of sketches made by Mr. Homer Davenport, the cartoon ist, in the court room at Rennes, with Mr. Davenport's own resume of his im- 1 prassions st the trial.

Steinbaugh of Humphrey, is the republican candidate for sheriff. The republicans believe in honoring the worthy young "men of the party, by plac ing them among the standard bearers, and thus "making them responsible somewhat for the actions of the party. The republican party recognizes no office-holding class, recognizes no calling of citizens from whose number candi dates for office mast come. He is a good citizen and a republican is sufficient He may be a mechanic, a farmer, a busi ness man or a professional man, all the same, any man is just as good as sooth er, it he behaves himself. Mr. Stein baugh is a good mechanic, an excellent blacksmith, snd s man who behaves himself as be ought Give him your vote for sheriff, snd you will not regret it He is a plain, fair, honest young man, and will appreciate your help. Here is a splendid new plan of shocking corn. It comes with a new method of cutting it up: Catting corn by hand is a hard job The machine will cut and bind snd the bundles are easily handled snd shocked. Instead of set ting them up as s shock of wheat from nine to twelve of them are laid across each other in-the form of an X with the butts and heads alternating, snd the rest of the shock is made by setting bundles in the comers caused by the angles made. It takes shout ten bun dles to the X sad about twenty to fill out the corners. The corn is said to cure oat well, as crossing the bandies makes airspaces. -J. H.

' ONE GLASS OF WINE. A Belief Tfcat It Chamsed the Hlatery if This Cowatrr. It is said that a single glass of wine probably wrecked the Demooratio party in 1860. The story is worth telling. After the breaking up of the national Democratic convention at Charleston the party in Georgia held a state con vention. Great excitement prevailed. The leaders of the party could not agree. It was a critical period. The majority report indorsed the so ceders or bolters st Charleston, while the minority report opposed their ac tion. The leading champion of the mi nority was Herechel W Johnson, and his followers were confident thst his eloquence snd logic would carry the day. It is quite likely that such would have been the case but for an unfortu aate mishap. Ex-Governor Johnson be gan his speech before the noon adjourn ment on the second dsy and concluded after dinner. Old men who remember that speech say that it was a powerful argument; and the impression gsined ground that after the noon recess the speaker would demolish his opponents with a few eledge hammer blows. But the overconfident friends of the minority report were doomed to disap pointment Johnson felt the strain of the morning session so much that as was unable to eat anything, and he took a glass of wine upon an empty stomach to strengthen himself. This was a fatal mistake. That one glass of wine per haps changed the destiny of the nation 1 The great orator resumed his speeob, but the wine had nauseated him. He wsa hazy, verbose snd unintelligible at times. His style and srgument lacked vigor, consistency snd positiveness. His friends looked at one another ia despair. The men on the, other, side were exult ant It was evident that taw speaker bad damaged his own causa. Then Howell Cobb snd Henry R. Jackson followed each other for the ma jority report They spoke with an air of expectant triumph and captured the convention. The majority report waa adopted. It is unnecessary to follow the Idstory of the next few weeks. The national De mocracy was completely disrupted and pat two tickets in the field. Lincoln wss elected and the country was plung ed into a civil war. Had Johnson suc ceeded in inducing the Georgia conven tion to adopt his conservative ideas, it is safe to say that other southern states would have fallen into line with oar commonwealth, and the naUosaal Demo cratic parry would have remained united. This is the story of what a little glass of wine did. It ruined a great parry, caused a disastrous war, and besides the loss of life cost the south over $4,000, 000,000. Perhaps this is rather speoa Istive, but there are many who believed it a generation ago. Atlanta Constitu tion. Dlaat't Irritate Hlaa.
