A Dwelling House on Jackson
v Street Burned Early This
Morning.
The Third Incendiary Fire
Within Forty-eight Hours ,
Between 12. and 1 o'clock this
morning a fire-was discoveied in an
old bam in the rear of the dwelling of
TVW.-.L. arauuiug , on tno north side of
Jaokion street between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth streets. The flames ,
when discovered , shot up quickly , en
veloping the barn , and the Manning
family , who had retired , wera quickly
awakened and routed out. An alarm
being sounded , the engines were eoon
at the scene of the fire , which burned
fiercely , communicating to the house ,
which was soon ablaza. Tbo firemen
did effective" work , but were unable to
save much of the house , although
three streams were soon playing on
tbe fin ) . The glare brought out an
immense throng of people to the spot ,
everyone being considerably excited at
the rumor that the fira wai known to
bo the work of an incendiary.
Tbe house was nearly or quite de
stroyee , the loss being about $300 , on
which there is some insurance. Bheds
in the neighborhood were slightly in
jured , but nothing to any consider
able amount , save the Manning prop'
erty , was damaged.
THE Bet representative undertook
to find out what ground there was to
the rumor of incendiarism , but despite
considerable intervianing nothing def
inite could be learned. One man ,
however , who was early at the fire de
clared that a man whom he met in the
alley back of tbe barn had poai
iively stated that there was
a very strong smell of coal oil
about the premises wheu the fire was
firji discovered. Mr. Manning de
clared that the fira must have been
cot , for there had been no light or fire *
about the barn that evening , and
his family bad retired some time before -
fore the blaze wai discovered.
Toe fact that wa have had three
firesVithm two days , each ot rhich
is strongly suspicioned to have been
the work of Incendiaries , leads our
people to question whether or not we
have an organized band of fire bugs
among us who are bent on destroying
the city. Everyone is considerably
excited , and all property owners are
asking , "whose turn next ? "

COUNTY CONVENTION.
A Long Political Battle , ,
which Lasts Seven
Hours ,
And Besults in a Viotory for
Elaine and an Honest
Delegation ,
A New County Central Com
mittee , -with Dick McOor-
mick as Chairman.
The Vagaries of the Apostle
"Paul Vandervoort and
Silas W. Miner. "
The republican county convention
met Saturday afternoon at the couit
house to elect seventeen delegates to
the state convention at Courribus ! , and
to transact such other business as
might come before it. Long before
the hour for assembling had arrived ,
the neighborhood was crowded with
the different delegates and theirfiiends
and numerousjimpromptu sidewalk
caucussei discussed the probable re
sult of one of the hardest contested
fighti ever witnessed in the county.
It then appeared that the Grant
boomera under the leadership of
Vanderroorl and Miner had formed a
coalition with a number of parties
elected on a Blaine ticket , the basis of
the coalition being an uninstrjcted
delegation to Columbus consisting of
ten Blaine delegates and seven Grant
men. The plan had been hatched up
the evening before , the object being
to spring the ticket on the other mem
bers of the convention and to force
it through by a lusty cry of anti-Kcse-
water , with a Paul and Silas Miner
as leaders of the chorus. From the
opening of the convention till its close ,
the fight was lively and interesting.
Every motion was bitterly contested
and at one time it looked very much
as if the convention would break up
in utter disorder or else that a double
header would be tent to Columbus.
THE OPEKINO SCENES.
Col. E. F. Smytbe , chairman of the
county central committee , called the
cnnvention to order shortly after two
o'clock.
, 0. H. Ballou and Will H ; Browne
were nominated ss temporary chair
man , on mot ion the election was made
by ballot.
F. J. Clark was chosen temporary
chairman.
WhJle the convention were proper-
ing their ballots , an informal call was
made of the various delegations to S30
whether there were any contests.
Finally amid great confusion , the bal
loting began , when it was discovered
that the votes exceeded the number of
deloaa'es. Another ballot was called
for , but before it could be taken Mr.
Albro moved that local-factionalism
should be dispensed with , which , by
the election of Col. E. F. Smythe , who
modestly put the motion and was de
clared eltcted without any regard being -
ing paid to the previous nomination.
Col. Smytho now rose to the spirit
of the occasion , and soared on the
eagle wings of eloquence. A majority
of the delegates were too busily en
gaged in electioneering , tying and un
tying , to give him their attention , but
the crowd outside the railing applaud
ed his sentiments to the echo. Mr.
Smytho said he was In favor of the
man nominated bv the oj.w. . u cent -
t cuuuii , wnoever he might be , wheth
er Grant , Blaine , Washburne , Ed
munds , Sherman or tbe dark horse.
The following committee on cre
dentials was appointed : I. W. Miner ,
E. W. Simeral , Paul Vandorvoort , J.
S. McCormick , J. T. Griffin , and Geo.
A. Hill.
On motion of Mr. Edward Hose-
water the committee was instructed
to report back tbe straight delegates
aud all contestants , leaving the con
tests to bo decided by the convention.
The committee were out almost an
hour , and the chair called for
speeches.
Hon. John 0. Cowan declared him
self in favor of the nominee of the
convention and urged harmony.
J. M. Thurston was in favor of
Grant as first choice.
Mr. Rosewater made a brief speech
in which he declared himself for
Blaine as Nebraska's choice.
Col. Chase was also for the choice
of the party.
Hon. J. L. Webster made a brief
but eloquent speech in favor of James
G. Blaino.
0. H. Ballon , Fred Nye and 0. J.
Greene also made remarks.
Some feeble calls for Vandervoort
were squelched by the earning in of
the committee on credentials , who re
ported the following delegates enti
tled to seats in the convention :
First Ward James Gilbert , John Ko-
* icky , E.A. McClure. E. M. Stenberjr. G.

.
Mr. Hosewater protested aginst
famythe holding the proxies of Dae-
msn and Umpherson , who had tied
in the First ward , one of whom was a
Grant and the other a Blaine man.
A long and heated discussion en
sued , the chair making the question a
J -personal matter.
The matter was submitted to the
First ward delegation , which reported
in favttr of Col. Smythe.
The motion that Col. Smythe reprg-
sent the tied delegates in the First
ward was finally carried amid great
confusion , several delegates voting
twice.
twice.Mr.
Mr. Rosawnter now insisted that
the voting should be done by wards
and precincts. He said that it was
impossible to tell who was voting and
who wssnot.
The question of the admission of
the Douglas precinct delegation head
ed by Joel T. Griffin now cirne up
and occasioned great contention ,
Vandervcort and Miner shouting
themselves hoarse and attempting to
bulldoze both tbo chair and the con
vention. A petition was sent by 17
voters against the admission oE the
Griffin delegation , whc had received
only 12 votes , and the 17 protestants
had not voted at all , because , as they
alleged , the polls had closed at 8:30 : , a
helf hour before tbe time.
After a long argument , in which
Mrr Rosowatcr appeared for tha pe
titioners and Mr. Griffin for himself
the contention decided to admit the
delegation.
The contesting delegations from
Millard were next heard. It was
shown that there were five delegates
who-received 19 votes each and one
received 16 votes. It was moved that
the Richel delegation be admitted as
against theKelsey delegation. A viva
voce vote was taken , snd then a vote
by wards and precincts was taken.
A motion to adjourn to Monday
at 2 o'clock was lost.
It was finally carried by a vote of
27 to 26 , with raised hands , to take a
vote by wards and precincts , after a
liveiy discussion had taken place.
The vote proving very much mixed ,
a second ballot was taken , resulting as
follows :
For Richel , 34 * against Richel , 39.
Mr. Richel the retired from the
convention , saying that he abided by
the result and bore no ill will towards
any one.
( JETTIXO DOWN TO BUSINESS.
The convention then proceeded to
permanent organization , and the tem
porary organization was made perma
nent.

Gen. Cowin moved to elect dele
gated and that lha seventeen having
the meat votes be declared chosen.
Mr. Rosewater moved that the tick
et already made up be adopted. Also ,
that a new county central committee
be elected. He said that it was grow
ing late , and that the committee
could bo chosen in a few minutes ,
while if it was delayed , it would be
very difficult to properly airange the
matter.
Vandervoort and Miner jumped to
their feet and denounced the proposi
tion as an infamou ? outrage , and
moved that the motion be laid on tbe
table.

Mr. .Rosewater demanded'the vote

The vote being taken to lay on the
table the motion to elect a new com

Immediately after the vote was de
clared , a motion was raado to adjourn
amidst shouts and yells from the out
side crowd.
Vandorvoort , who was pretly sick
at tha defeat of his crowd , made a
vigorous attack on Mr. Rosowatcr ,
claiming that ho would keep the con
vention , all night listening to Bl line
reiolutions and that the scheme of a
new central committee was a job.
Mr. Rosewater insisted on the vote
on adjournment being taken which re
sulted 34 to 40 against adjourning.
Mr. Rosewater now moved that this
convention do now proceed to elect a
new central committee. Carried.
Mr. Rosewater moved that J. S.
McCormick bo elected cnairrnan of the
committee and delegate at large.
The vote by wards and precincts was
about to ba taken when an alarm of

tion into still greater confusion.
