the times and places of the various
speakers that are to participate in

was appointed to perfect this last ,
which will appear in our next issue.
A challenge from Gen. Livingstone ,
chairman of the Indepandent State
Central Committee , to match the
candidates of his party against Ihe
Republican candidates was received ,
ind the Secretary directed to de-
jline , inasmuch as the Republican
jandidatcs had made arrangements

irought up , ana the committee de-
lined to have anything to do with

SOLD OUT. .
The "Onion is Swallowed Tip by
the Postal Eing.
How it Was Done , What is to be
Done , and Who is to do it.
For some time past it has been
evident to the few readers of the
Daily Union that the current of that
sheet was tending directly towards
the postal ring , the members of
which clique having found hi that
journal a willing champion to de
fend their many peccadilloes.
Within the last fe wdays rumors have
been current on the streets that ne
gotiations were being made by the
postal gang to purchase the Lnion
audwe.can now say on goodauthority
that those negotiations have culmi
nated in the sale of the paper- the
documents having been signed
Tuesday night. Thereby hangs a
tale.
tale.Last
Last Friday Mr. E. N. Sweet
editor and proprietor of the West
Point Republican received a tele
gram from Mr. Yost , requesting
his presence in Omaha on urgent
business. Mr. Sweet abandoned his
scissors and paste pot , put on a boil
ed shirt , donned his Sunday go to
meeting harness , polished his boots
and hurried to Omaha , little think
ing that upon his arrival here , the
most enviable honors were to be
conferred upon him , that he waste
to be elevated from the thralldom
of a country editor to the lofty anc
commanding position of a metropol
itan journalist , in other words to be
assigned the position of manager of a
great daily newspaper. Such , in
deed , was the case , us he learned to
his inexpressible surprise and satis
faction , upon his arrival "here.
The plan , by which he was to boss
the Union , was unfolded to him
He was informed that the Union
had been for a long time past , anc
was now , for sale. The conduct o
Balcombo and his collapsed am
consolidated mammoth " melan
choly morning monotony " did not
at all suit Senator Hitchcock , much
less postmaster Yost , especially be
cause that journal had refused to
defend them , and consequently 1
was necessary got a Republican
paper that could be relied upon
The BEE was also not consideret
truly loil , " and they were no\y
determined to have an " 'organ as is
an organ , " which would grind ou ;
the t'mes ' of the powers that be , in
perfect harmony with their ideas
Sweet's peculiar fitness for the posi
tion was dwgjt UDon at some con
siderable length. He Lad opposcc
Crounse's rcnomination and con
sequently would make a reliable
man for the nlaoe ,
Tbe price of the Union was eleven
hundred Collars , 5500 as a bonus
and $600 to pay off tjip jpdebtedness
of the concern.
This amount was to be raised by
donations , of which Senafor Hitch
cock , Postmaster Yost , TJnitec
States District Attorney Neville
and Surveyor General Cunning
ham were to bear the heaviest portion
tion , while Adams , private scribe
to Secretary Hitchcock , voluntarity
planked down $50.
The question was raised whether
Sweet could conduct the paper with
out ass { tanpe , and he was urged to
take George Washington Frost on
his editorial staff ; but Sweet soured
on tnls proposition , sayins that he
could not get along with him for
for twenty-four hours. That let
Frost out.
Mr.S woet at first thought he would
like to go into the Republican , but
there were serious obstacles t bore on
account of other men , and so
he concluded to waste his sweet
ness on tbo desert air by run
ning the IMonfnto the ground.
He expected to loose the greater
share of his subscription list , but he
thinks tlie postal rjiig will mate up
the loss to hiin in other ways. The
truth of It is , the stampede has al
ready begun among the Union sup
porters , and there is no telling
when the end will be.
Mr. Sweet left yesterday morning
for West Point to finally arrange bw
business there , preparatory to his
funeral in Omaha. George Wash
ington Frost is ad interim editor of
the Union , and will do the heavy
work till Sweet returns , Frost hqs
tiad an eternal hankering uftpr the
editor's chair , and ho Is considera-
ably disappointed m not being put
on as the figure-head of thp Union.
Jo now says be don'tjwant it , as
there is no money in it , and ho is
afier money.
.The original stockholders of the
japer have been assigned various
) i > 3itioii3 at good salaries to get
and we wish for their take , tbat they
vere twice as much. The division
f the $500 among them left about
75 each , which is very profitable
) ay for eight months work. One
man , who sold his share for $15
some weeks.ago , Is now kicking
himself for not having held on to it.
The sale of the Union has caused
a terrible rumpus in certain quar
ters. The Democrats are red-hot ;
the Independents are boiling over
with indignation ; the Ko-ops are
kussing : and the workingmen are
tearing mad at beine sold out.
And that's just how the whole
matter stands.

cessary to be done in the matter
more than to place the place the
amounts on the assessment book
and tax list. The above items were
reported to the county clerk by the
S ate Auditor. This list was order
ed put upon the tax list.
A motion to appropriate $40 to

ed to exclude district numbQr two ,

WATER WGIUCS.
Tlie leltter of Thomas J. Whit

Louis water works , was read , and
Mr. Marsh thereupon Introduced an
ordinance to .submit at the next
ejection a proposition to issue bonds
for the execution of water works for
this city. The matter was then thor
oughly discussed. It appears that
by tlie city charter the bonded in
debtedncas of the city shall not ex
ceed sjx ner cent , of the assessed
valuation : ' ' The present valuation
is seven millions ; we can only is
sue one hundred and seventy thou
sand.
It is necessary , therefore , that the
charter should be amended , in oreler
to obtain a sufficient amount of
monpy to bujld thu water works.
The ordinance yas llnaliy passed by
a v < te of 8 to 2 , the yule being as
follows :

County Fair.
No State has been successful in
organizing and maintaining a State
Fair until the several counties have
first organized and maintained
county fairs. These county organ
izations are the "primaries" upon
which the State Fair is dependent.
A successful county fair this fall
will to an equal extent benefit ths
State Fair , and the citizens ol
Douglas county , merchant , mechan
ic , and husbandman each can bene
fit himself and his neighbor by
meeting together , comparing notes ,
and learning of nach other. A
week thus spent each year will
benefit the whole people an hun
dred fold.
No fair will or can be a success ,
however much paius has been taken
or money expended , unless the people
ple , by their piesence , make it such ,
The building prepared for the State
Fair will afford a splendid opportu
nity , during the county fair , for tbe
people of every trade or occupation
to exhibit such useful articles as
they may have , whether of home
or foreign manufacture , and will
afford an opportunity for those de-
Airing to purchase to make selec
tions.
The1 fair will afford the cheapest
possible means of advertising , as
well as an opportunity to select.
Therefore , I invite the business men (
merchants and mechanics of Omaha
to devote one day at least to the
County Fair , anil in order to do so ,
that on the afternoon of , say Thurs
day , September 24th , the business
places in tlie city be closed from
noon until 5 o'clock p. m. Many oi
the leading merchants have already
