about seven wseaa, of dropsy.
Mr. Hoppea had been afflicted with
rheumatism for ahoat seventeen years.
Ue waa bore December 4, 1846, in Hacb

Ie 1888 be came to this country with
his parenta, settling in Wisconsin, his
father dying a few weeks after arriving,
by sunstroke.
In 189 he came to Columbae, where

by their union they have had seven
children, four of whom, with his wife,
are living: Edward, Anna, Emma and

Mr. Hoppen was a kind husband and

through all these years of affliction.
Funeral services were held at the
family residence, 2 o'clock Sunday after
noon, Rev. Misaaler officiating, the
Maeanerchor and Fire Department
being present in force, besides a Urge

Mr. Herachick, the young man who
came over about seven weeks ago with
Mr. and Mrs. Sohler from Switzerland,
was badly cut in the face by a kicking
broncho, a week ago Sunday. He is
working on the farm of Wm. Ernst. On
Sunday he was cautioned not to go near
the heels of this broncho and he replied
he did not think the horse would kick
and put his hand on its hip, when it im
mediately kicked him in the face, cutting
his under lip and flesh down one side of
his face in a frightful manner. Dr.
Evans sewed up the flesh taking forty
stitches in the wound.
In American history Altgeld is a
noted character because in June, 1S93,
as governor of Illinois, he pardoned cer
tain Chicago anarchists, and again in
July 1S9&, by his bitter, public criticism
of President Cleveland for ordering out
Federal troops to suppress the great
railroad strike in Chicago. The mails
of the United States on the trains were
being obstructed; lives and property of
the city were likewise endangered, and
the action of President Cleveland met
with the hearty approval of the great
body of the American people of all par
ties, excepting anarchists and their sym
pathizers. The Thanksgiving number of Table

W. T. Rickly shows us a Sidney
paper telling of the death there, of Mary
C Brown. Oct. 23, after two years of
constant suffering. She waa born in
England Feb. 14. 1827, was married to
Richard Brown in 1854, her huabanS
dying in July, "94. The Body was buried
at North Platte. Five children survive
her. Mr. Brown will be remembered by
our older citizens as among the first
foremen of this section of the Union
Pacific road. Mrs. Brown waa member
of the Episcopal church, and quite
prominent in local work for the organi

early history of Colnmbus.
Republicans of Schuyler had an im
mense meeting last Thursday night.
John McDonald and Charles Miner of
this city formed a portion of the drum
corps at the meeting. There were 180
horsemen in the parade; 200 torches;
20 transparencies; the G. A. R. post with
hag and torches; 7 Boats representing
Hanna, with horns; Bryan's wind-machine,
fanning mill, etc ; Labor a
blacksmith with anvil, fire, helpers
pounding the hot iron and sparks flying,
etc. Both opera houses were crowded,
speaking going on at the same time in
both places. Ladies of the McKinley
club marched in the procession, using
red, white and blue parasols. The whole
meeting was an object lesson good to
see
Ghordis Stall left for his home at
Marengo, UL, last Friday, after several
days spent here on business. He is as
ardent a republican as ever and cannot
for the life of him see why any farmer
in .Nebraska should vote for Bryan for
president. The close alliance between
Bryan and Crcker means more than
appears on the surface, viz: that the
most corrupt man known to American
political life these times cares only for
what he can get for himself as "boss" of
Tammany, and dispenser of federal
offices in the state of New York. Bryan
is undoubtedly an actor and he thought
be made a great stroke in allying himself
so closely with Croker during the clos
ing days of the campaign, in order to
make fusion adherents believe there is a
possibility of his getting into the presi
dential chair knowing well the power
of hope as an inducement to scheme and
work, bat even if New York state should
go democratic (which it will not), there
is no reasonable show for his election.
Mr. Stull quotes an eminent man well
acquainted with Mr. Altgeld, aa saying
that "there ia material enough in him,
mentally, to make four such men aa
Bryan, aad leave enough over for a
good-aized dog under the wagon, but
that he m so bound up with the baser
political elameata in the cities that he
do a straight thing."

Altoirai t Iptak ia Cefemsm am
FrieajIiawJaied-
Aboet a week ago the ehainevsa of th
repabheaa
imitt
-here was
notified that SaeatorAlIisea could apeak
at Columbae oa the 2d of November,
but finding that the opera house was
engaged for the Altgeld meet Tug at that
time, the date waa fixed for Thursday.
By some mistake of the saanngeraf the
speakers at Omaha, the change waa aot
made in hia oaace, nor waa Senator Alli
son notified of any change from his orig
inal plana, which were to speak only
twice in the state oa Thursday at Al
bion and Friday at Columbus.
Through this error he was billed both
at Albion and Columbae for Thursday
and nothing was known of this mistake
here until Tharsday noon, when the
Omaha, manager notified oa that he had
been informed that we were billing Alli
son for Thursday but that it was a mis
take, we could aot have him till Friday.
He was on his way to Albion then. A
conference was at once had with the
democratic committee here, aad after a
full explanation it was agreed that Alli
son should have the opera house for Fri
day night and that we would Jointly
decorate and seat it. This was relied
upon decorating done, and no other
hall procured. The democratic com
mittee on Friday morning, after engag
ing Maennerchor hall, notified us that
they had reconsidered the agreement to
give up the opera house, and that Sena
tor Allison could not have it. Giving as
an excuse (to cover their disgraceful act)
that they had been deceived. Full ex
planation was again made and indispu
table proof offered that no deception
had been practiced, but all proof and
assurances were rejected. The fiat had
gone forth that Senator Allison should
not speak here unless he did it in the
open air upon our muddy streets
which, considering his age and health,
he could not consent to do.
These are the facts, and can be proven
by the affidavits of all the parties con
cerned, and specious excuses to avoid
the just censure of an outraged public
to the contrary, notwithstanding.
To say nothing of the unenviable rep
utation that it must give to our city for
refusing to hear so distinguished a man
as Senator Allison, nor the exceeding
discourtesy to him personally, T ask all
fair minded men, regardless of party
affiliation, if such practices are consist
ent with the claims they make for equal
rights, free speech, and as special guar
dians of our liberties?
But this is in line with the policy re
cently announced by Boas Croker in the
east, and no doubt has been directed to
be pursued everywhere. In all candor,
I ask you if you want to commit the
affairs of this great nation, respected
and honored as never before, to a party
actuated by such motives and controlled
by such methods.
If I mistake not the character of our
people, they will show to the world by
their votes at this election that they
disapprove of such methods.
Tha Altgeld Meeting.
The Altgeld meeting on Friday last
in this city waa considered by the dem
ocratic managers as a big success.
There are a host of old-fashioned dem
ocrats, however, that are not of the Alt
geld sort by any means, and who are
more decided than before, in their views
against what J. Sterling Morton calls
Bryanarcby, since hearing the notorious
ex-governor of Illinois, who through
sympathy with anarchists who were
plotting the destruction of Chicago, in
curred just denunciation by intelligent
patriots the country over.
We believe no votes were made for
Bryan by the Altgeld speech here, but
decidedly otherwise.
The opera house was full, and the
stage was crowded with fusion politi
cians from the different townships of
the county.
The decorations consisted of the na
tional colors and pictures of Bryan and
Stevenson on the sides; the prominent
pictures were of Bryan immediately
above the middle of the stage, and Lin
coln and Washington at the sides and
below that of Bryan.
The speaker was introduced by Judge
Sullivan, the substance of whose re
marks waa that we were nearing the
close of another campaign in which the
people were contending for the ancient
standard of national morals, and for the

On rising, the speaker was greeted by
hearty applause, but in the lengthy
speech that he made, there was. abso
lutely nothing of attempted argument
new to those who have at all closely fol
lowed the efforts of fusion speakers in
the campaign. He did show more than
usual ability in "making the worse" ap
pear the better reason. He did any that
the issues were not partisan, but Ameri
can; that for himself, party ties est

HARRr B.REED,
the republican candidate for representa
tive of Platte county m the Nebraska
legislature is a man well posted in the
needs of the county; in touch with the
average citizen, honest, capable, and will
do his duty. Among other good things,
he will vote for two good republicans
for the TJ. S. senate.

inform themselves as to who is the best
man for the place aad then vote for that
man. regardless of his party affiliations.

he has placed the Blair public schools in '
