Charles B. Lettoa, republican nominee for jndge of the supreme court. Said apportionment entitles Platte county to 12 votes in said convention. It is also recommended that the delegates to said convention be instructed to vote for or against the endorsement of the constitutional amendment relating to the creation of a State Board .of Bailway Commissioners, to the end' that the action thus taken may determine the attitude of the party relative to said amendment and n ay be made a part of the ballot.

The various odd numbered senatorial districts' an also notified that they will at the same time by their delegates choose members to represent them on the state committee for a term of two years. It is also Breed that the counties which have not already selected .their county committees and" perfected the local organization for the cam paign of 1906. do soat the first county conven tion held subsequent to the issuing of this call and report at once to the state committee. It is important that the uniform credent fad blanks which will be furnished by the state com mittee to each county chairman be used for fur nishing credentials of the delegates to said con vention, and that the name ef each delegate, his post oSee address, awl rerinctin which he re sides, be plainly written thereon. Credentials should be prepared immediately after adjourn ment of the different county conventions, duly certified by their officers and forwarded at once to State Headquarters, at Linaolo. By order of the state committee. War. P. Warner, Chairman. A. B. Aixkh, Secretary. Dated at Lincoln. Neb May 5, 1906. JIM HILL'S POLICIES. The most notable speeches made in this country for many a day were those made last week in Canada by James J. Hill. That great master of industry who has done more than any other man to teach ithe world to honor busy, productive wealth, while con demning the idle rich; the man whose tremendous energies and large capital have commingled with the industry of the poor settler along the great northern railroad systems of the United States to convert buffalo pas tures, into fruitful farms pointed out the factors which promise to solve present annoying economic and poli tical problems and to insure the pros perity anil happiness of the American people. "THr. ttillVTriostf eTnphaticmessage was to the farmers. It was an appeal for the preservation of the fertility of the soil and for the maintenance of agricultural experiment stations as a means of increasing the possibilities of production. On this subject he said: Now the fertility of your soil is your ' greatest asset, worth many times all the others pnt together. For the tarn prodaees more wealth and th.aation of farmers is always, always'lMabeen, and always will be, the riobnation.

In the little island of Jersey, farmers make make over $200 per acre per anaum, that is intensive fanning; you cannot do that. But yon can help by scientific investiga tion, by a school that would take up all these questions and settle them by experiments, what an in dividual cannot afford to do, but the province can do. Passing to the railroad question, Sir. Hill delivered a shoulder blow to the speculative element in railroads and told how in the next few years transportation rates could be cut in two. His words are worthy careful consideration. He said speaking of the relation of the railroad to the pub lic: "I want to tell you that the first railroad had' to be built with public credit the public oredit had to be iavoked; but after yon have got a railway be a little patient, hold on to what yoa have got; for if a rail way cannot live on the business developed from it, it will die, no matter what sabsidy you give. No body, no aaiatal, boy, man, woman or child is worth raising that has to be fed with a spoon from youth to old age. "We don't expect to come in here and run away with your business; we expect to kelp to build it up. We hope to be able to enjoy your prosperity with you; because if the people of the ooantry along the line of railway served by the railway are not-prosperous, depend upon it the railway will be poor. Taking up the question of lower rates he said: "I want to tell you, that the great consideration in connection with railway transportation now is' the grades. With proper grades and satisfactory roadbeds we can almost cut the cost of transporta tion in two for it coats no more for a train crew and for almost every other item of boat in operation, to run a heavy engine and huge train of cars carrying double the quantity that is now transported on roads where the grades are high." In the following language Mr. Hill promised to eliminate "water" from his Canadian railway and gave a stunning rebuke to the system of sub sidies: "In Canada we do not propose to bond our roads for, a dollar. We shall just issue stock representing the actual cash outlay and as we have never figured on receiving more from the people than an aver age of sevea per cent on our outlay, yon will see that the burden upon the people will be light. Outpoticy will enable us to set a new pace in the matter of rates, and I think you can mark it down that as a result of , our advent into vonr splendid terri tory an effective period will be pnt to the bonusing or subsidy system. I should scarcely think that public men wo!d care to propose subsidies, and that companies would have the hardihood to ask them in the face of the facts." ' Another noteworthy statement that fell from Mr. Hill's lips was the pre diction that the tariff wall betwetm the United States and Canada woald be removed. ' The creditable manner in which C. N. McElfresh substituting for Coanty Attorney Latham, conducted the court business at the last session of the district court, suggests that he would make a most desirable successor to L. R. Latham as county attorney. The taxpayers of Platte county have had several impressive object lessons of the folly of entrusting their busi ness to the repesentatives of a single political party and many a good democrat in this county has amid to the editor ofjthis paper: "Put up only' your best'men and we will help to elect them. The county business wiUbe.moreeconoBucally transacted if we have 4preseamttives of both parties in the court house to watch each other". If this sentiment pre vails C.N. McElfresh could be elected county attorney next "Novembers, -RSI r -i- i .-r "A. " v im aia ttm hIhimitt ; " .

We appeal to the young republicans of Platte county to come to the front under the banner of Theodore Roosevelt, and help next fall, by the nomination of such young men as C N. McElfresh to land Platte county safe in the republican fold. OTHER EDITORS. Fremont Tribune: The barbers of Columbus have petitioned the city council to enact an ordinance prohibit ing them from keeping open shop on Sunday. They assume that they need protection against each other, but there is reason to believe the man who con scientiously closes his place of business on Sunday will lose nothing by it in the long run. Perhaps a few stragglers will go to competitors who keep open lest they lose a few nickels, bnt the bulk of patronage comes from people who re spect a man's honest opinions. A San Francisco restauranter, a good old Quak er, carried his Sunday closing so far as to compel all hisv patrons to go else where for their meals on that day. There are those who said it was finan cial suicide. He allowed he wonld nek it. The result was that he was siton able to open a second restaurant near by to care for his tremendous patronage. In Fremont, n man ignoring the custom of all competitors in keeping open on the Lord's day, has closed up regularly and that not only without detriment to his business'but with an actual increase in it. There are a great many business cowards, and other cowards, in the world. Most men can compel success if tbey would. They can bring the pub lic to their way of thinking, to their methods of business, if they but make intelligent and diplomatic effort. Pete Earron in World Herald: Madame Bernhardt is one foreigner who appreciates ns and our money, bat mostly ns. She observes in a magazine article, that since her first vis it to America onr younger genera tion have all learned to sneak French and German, and all know by heart the literature of France. Germany and Norway. This unsolicited teetimonal reminds the New York Post that an Enalish writer a few years ago re marked that all American boys could repeat, on demand, the Declaration of Iadpendence and the Constitution of the United States. This is jast as true and jast as creditable to us as the accomplishment which Madame Bern hardt mentions. And in addition to these difficult and valuable feats of memory, most of onr yonths could give yon o hand the standing of all the National, American and Western lseagae teams. These are matters which do not oonsider of great im portance, and it wonld never have oo carred to as to mention them ,it the English gentleman and the French lady had not oaalled, public attention to them. Bat we are not so ultra modest as to attempt to deny any of ik That's one thing that yoa will always notice about ns: when we are caaght with the goods we all stand right ap and plead gailtv. Return off.... -- Sherlock Holmes "Tour ladyship places me In a very delicate position. I beg that you will alt down and tell me what yon desire, but I fear that I cannot .make any un conditional promise." She swept across the room and seated herself with her back to the window. It was a queenly presence tali; grace ful and Intensely womanly. ' "Mr Holmes," she sold, and her white gloved hands clasped and un clasped as she spoke. I Will speak frankly to you In the hopes 'that it may Induce you to speak frankly In return. There Is complete confidence between my husband andme on' all "matters nave one. That one is politics.

I cannot blame yon, Mr. Holmes, for having refused to speak more free ly, and -you on your side will not: I am Bare, think the worse of me be cause I desire, even against his will, fo share my husband's anxieties. Once more I beg that you will say nothing of-my-vlsit" She looked back at us from the door, and I had a hut impression of that beautiful, haunted face, the startled eyes and the drawn mouth. Then she was gone. -Now, Watson, the fair sex Is your department" said Holmes, with a smile, when the dwindling froufrou of skirts had ended In the slam of the front door. "What w'as the fair lady's game? What did she really want?" -Surely her own statement is clear and her anxiety very natural." -Hum! Think of her appearance, Watson her manner, her suppressed excitement her restlessness, her tenac ity In asking questions. Remember that she comes of a caste who do not lightly show emotion." -She was certainly much moved." -Remember also the curious earnest ness with which she assured us that it was best for her husband that she should know all. What did she mean by that? And you must bave observed. Watson, how she maneuvered to have the light at her back. She did not wish us to read her expression." "Yes. she chose the one choir In the room." "And yet the motives of women are so Inscrutable. You remember the wo man at Margate whom I suspected for the same reason. No powder on her nose that proved to be the correct so lution. How can yon build on such a quicksand? Their most trivial action may mean volumes, or their most ex traordinary conduct may depend upon a hairpin or a curling tongs. Good morning, Watson." "You are off?" "Yes, I will while away the morning at Godolphlu street with our friends of the regular establishment With Ed uardo Lucas lies the solution of our problem, though I must admit that I have not an inkling as to what form It may take. It Is a capital mistake to theorize In advance of the facts. Do you stay on guard, my good Watson, 'and receive any fresh visitors. I'll Join you at lunch if I am able." All that day and the next and next Holmes was In a mood which bis friends would call taclrnrn and others morose. He ran out and ran In, smok- 1 Incessantly, played snatches on his violin, sank Into reveries, devoured sandwiches at Irregular hours and hardly answered the casual questions which I put to him. It was evident to me that things were not going well with him or his quest He would say nothing of the case, and It was- from 'the papers that I learned the particu lars of the' Inquest and the arrest with the subsequent release, of John Mlt 'ton, the valet of the deceased. The coroner's Jury brought in the 'obvious -willful murder," but the parties re malned as unknown as ever. No mo tive was suggested. The room was full of articles of value, but none had heen taken. The dead man's papers had not been tampered with: They were carefully examined and showed that he was a keen student of- Interna tional politics, an Indefatigable gossip, a remarkable linguist and an untiring letter writer. He had been on Inti mate terms with the leading politicians of several countries, but nothing sen sational was discovered among the doc uments which filled his drawers. As to his relations with women, they appear ed to have been promiscuous, but su perficial, ne bad many acquaintances among them, but few friends, and no one whom he loved. Ills habits were regular, his conduct Inoffensive. His death was an absolute mystery and likely to remain so.
