A Very spirited contest lasting over ono hour was fought between the sup porters and opponents of .IjudsfoMox- ' twell , ovortio ] 'motion made . by ! John M. Thurston to yoto for Hupromo judge by secret ballot instead of voting ing viva voce by the call of , counties. ThurstoiL's motion was finally voted down by a decided majority.fc * A little after midnight a votu was taken on supreme judge , resulting as follows : Samuel Maxwell , 2y3i ; 0. J. Dillworth , 8Gi ; O. V. Howett , 3 ! > ; Uriah Bruner , 15. The Douglaa del egation voted 15 for Dillworth and 8 scattering. The convention then pro ceeded to nominate two regents of Iho university. L. B , Fitiold was nomi nated from the fifth judicial district and Isaac Powers , of Dakota county , was nominated from the sixth judicial district for the placet now held by Re gent Wm. Adair. A now state central committee was selected , with J. AV. Dawes as chair man. Paul Vanderwort and C. B. Yost were selected to represent Doug las county. Datus Brooks tlu > u re produced his long-winded T yglaa countjresolutions , - which were voted through hastily without debate and the convention adjourned sine die. The following is THE I-LATFOUM : The republicans of Nebraska declare their continued devotion to the prin ciples of the national republican party , as expressed in the Chicago platform , and as further defined in thu letter * of acceptance of its candi dates for president and vice president. In the untimely death of our late president , James Abram Garfield , at the meridian of his life , wo deplore the loss to the nation of a gifted and accomplished man , a tried and trusted Rarty leader , and a broad-minded and progressive statesman. Ho was a man of the people , and his experience and wisdom in public affairs pre-eminently qualified him both to maintain his party's ascendancy and to conduct the interests of the nation in an assured career of triumph , until every issue raised by rebels , by ropudiationists , and by cormptionists in the public service should bo .settled right , and forever . settled in the supremacy of the nation , in the Ireedom of the citizen , in the relief of the people from undue burdens of tax ation , in the permanent establishment of a popular currency , in the settle ment of the Indian ( juostion on a ba sis of absolute security to the people of the west , and in a governmental administration , honest and economical in all its departments and conducted with business eflicisncy in all its branches. We rejoice in the noble personal character which our , lament ed chief hns left aa a heritage to this people , and in an example so whole sale for the edification and emulation of the youth of our land. Wo rejoice in his example of temperance in all thimpt-of fidelity to all domestic and social obligations ; of nnuiicctod court esy and dignity of demeanor , and of unchallenged oflicial integrity. To the aged mother bereft , to the wid owed wife and her fatherless children , we tender our deopoit sympathies , hi uul for them wo bespeak tlio con hiVI solations of the divine love , tl nd a nation's and people's at . tyinpathy , protection und support. To Chester A. Arthur , elected vice- tii president of the United States by the te ianio suffrages that made James A. an Sarfield president , nnd chosen to bo the nation's chief executive in wioh a xmtingoney as that which has arisen , wo tender our friendly consideration fein citizens of the stnto , and as repub in licans wo pledge to President Arthur su ur hearty support under the onibar- aHsin circinnstaiiues which , through 10 fault or procurement of his , have ittended hid accession to the chair of mi itato. It is our conviction tliat in SCi 3en. Arthur , now our constitutional th president , this nation lias a chief jxecutivo equal to the unwelcome iccesaity which in the Providence of "iod has buea laid upon himVo mvo conlideuco in ChcHtor A. Arthur a citizen' of pure patriotism , of Miiincnt abilitius , of sound political iducation , of varied accoinplisluncntH , ind of unstained life , and u ropuhli- nope an in whom there is no guile , Wo peen mtcrtain thu expectation that ho will en irovo to be a statesman capable of tit jovoniiiiir the people wisely and well , titW ( tnd a leader under whoso loyal tjuidso anco the party of the people will know no such word as fail. Wo commend President Arthur's inaugural utter ances , that "nil , the noble aspirations of myt lamented predecessor which found oipiTMi'ons in his life , the measures levied and suggested by him to correct abuses and enforce economy * * * will bo gavnored in the hearts of the pooploj" and wo received with satisfaction the assurance from hia lips that it will bo President Ar thur B "earnest endeavor to profit , and to see that the nation shall profit , , by this example and sacrifice. In President Arthur's further utterance that the president must , under the constitution "answer for the , just ox- crciso of the discretion it permits , and the duties it imposes , " wo rccogjitoo a clear expression of the same princi ple of executive independence and ro- Bpoustbility which the , late president 'nfaintnincd with the approbation of the people and with the endorsement of the republican party. In Gen. Arthur's letter of acceptance ho vindicated the personal rights of the citi/cns in political af fairs , alike with his duty as a public oflicial. Ho demanded business qual ifications with integrity in public of fice. Ho advocated measures of pub lic relief for industries and classes overburdened with taxation. Ho fav ored national works of internal im provement. In terms most explicit , moat earnest ; and most emphatic ho set forth the duties of this govern ment to "protect all Amcricancttizcns everywhere in the enjoyment of their civil and political righto. " In these and other declarations of that able and statesmanlike letter , wo recognize the true gospel of republicanism. Wu therefore bespeak and wo ex pect' ' the utmost measures of suc cess for the administration thus pledged to a tpublie policy , alike economical , humane , patriotic just and pure' Wo dothis to the end that the national republican party may continue united in the work of reconstructing the nation saved by its counsel ' aiid ita arms. * tWoidtfJhis to the'end that the democratic party may never , a ain. dominate in a gov ernment , which it souglil to overthrow. That party'in ' every southern state and in most of the northern , states , has re pudiated sacred obligations relating to nationality , to freedom , to financial lionor , and to honest economical ad ministration. To these supreme ob ligations this people , through the re publican party , stands forever pledged , and wo look with confidence to Presi dent Arthur as with confidence , wo looked to President Gariield for an ad ministration which shall rssure the continued success of the republican party in its high and chosen mission. Wo demand for the assassin of our late president a speedy trial , in which technicalities shall not' bo suffered to overrule justice and the -public safety , and that condign punishment bo visit ed on him for his causeless and cruel act , and fte call upon the congress of tho'Uriited States to enact a law mak ing any violent assault on the person of the president or vice-president an : ict of treason , punishable with death.

Mitch talk has been occasioned dur ing thu last few days by the destruc tion , by some person ur persons un known , of thu stock and fixtures of MessrH. Aver it Murphy , saloon keepers , who have been leading the fight ugaiiiHt the high price charged by the city authorities for liquor li- oeiisui. During the night some ono entered their place of business , turned on all the taps , broke valuable fittings , mirrors , etc. , but took away nothing. The property wasted is valued at from $3,000 to 84,000. All manner of speculations are rife on thu Hubjuct. Ono rumor ascribes the act to over zealous tompurniico advocates , of whom there are a largo body in the city , and who are much chagrined at the protection nflbrdud the liquor dealers by tlio United States judges , especially Chief Justice Hunter , who they consider ia strangely incoimibt- ont in his rulings in favor of the liquor traflio. Others fancy it is it method of advertising uQoptod by the linn , who undeatand- ing thu tidu of popular feeling , seek to gain sympathy and custom by the wise waste of u fuw gallons of liquor , easily exaggerated into the hundreds. A third partv ascribes the action to the police , who they imagine have done out of revenge , for the loss of tlio eases brought by them before thu su perior courts , At any rate there still remain fur too many places in this city whore nil descriptions and quali ties of alcoholic drinks are dealt out with little or no restraint , owing to the decisions of the courts.
