Every man and woman in Lincoln is a politician , and just now ivery man and woman .1 in Lincoln it engrossed up to their chins in politia. Although the slate for haa been agreed on , there in iJtenao feeling and not a kicking' ! The scramble for the Ir'gi&Iature lias been moot eaciting Tlmt pink o | wire-pullers Tom Ken nard bus roared from the field after deaper.uo effort to got. on the ticko for the statjf oenate. But E/'E. Brown has held hiJ ground , and will head tin legislative jtiskot from thia county with Whelon aa a leader for thi lower liouifc. Whedou started out na A r UBHIUTK VOR but hua li * mollilif d by the assurance anco Of iS-elecuon to the houao with strong backing for the comiuij apeak pi-ship. Tlt.it leaves the Lancaster dclegntioii ahead' for G.iloy , who is makilig an active canyaas in other counties ; and he will have a strong following. There ia great dissatlatoc tioa hero among the Gorman republi 'cans ovjfcr the attempt to torco pro hibitiotf ; and a fight is expected al along the line among that nationality My scrap book contains , among other thihga , the following interesting notn out of the St. Louis Globo- Democrat : WAaniNGTON , D. C , , Juno 23 , The eecretary ol slate for Nebraska , S J. Alexander , eaid lo-ni ht that if the retnib- licaua in liiu ttnta did not have a hard fight , politically , this full , they would make one. Tne indications were that there would bo several c anil id a ten in the field for governor. But it was a little too so n to know who the nspiranti would be , although there would be mauy camliilat a for .congmn Jn two of the districts that have juut been or ated Mr. _ Valentino would be returned from the First district without opposition. Oolmiel Tom M. jor ? , ho Buiii , lived in whut wai known as tlio "statesmen's district , " anl tint it em braced Uniiiha , Lincoln , and tbo county of Otoe , Senator Van Wyck'a Lome , and th it a lively contest was promised m that district. What changes a few weeks do make , to bo sure ? A a political weather prophet , Alexander was not a great success , ulso ho would havu have known that ho was to bo among the politically dead before the cam paign had fairly begun. That bogus census corttticdto was the last nail in his noflin. Judging from the newspa pers in the North Platte country , Valentino ia not deatined to bo re turned without opposition , and Tom Majors , poor Tom , Ima gene with Alexander to the happy hunting grounds , u victim of too much confi dence in Valuntimi'd man Friday , Peter Schwenck * . Alexander waa emi nently counter IN ONK TIIINO. The indications nro that there will bo several candidates for governor , but the race ia not alwuya to the flwift , nor the battle to the strong. When the legislature waa in session in 1881 , the slate wus made up for the governorship in thu state houao. It was agreed between Thumtun , Nanco , and the other schemers that D-iwes i to bo thu coming man , D.IWCS had played it way down deep on Paddock. HK HAD BARGAINED to deliver Saline county to the man from the state of lioutrico , but ho'wus all the time eupporting him with a monopoly reservation to muko Nance. On ono memorable evening when Church Ilowo and Ddwoa and Thurs- ton had arranged for thu springing of the Nanco boom Dawcs was seen sliding through tlu ) corridors of the Commercial , with H little ribbon in his button hole tliat was to aignalizo the break from Paddock - dock , but the boom died a horning. It was not as big r.s Fred Fyfi's il/ fcpeck , and poor D.iwus wont homo with a very lario black eyp and a sore hoad. Von Wyck'a election was the first bad break of the Diwes" slate , but the sorrel top from Saline has by no means given up , as ho still count ) on Til u re ton and Nanco to reward his treachery , and I am reliably informed that he counts on the backing of both corporations , There is , however , A LION IN 111 * I'ATJf. Saline county ia tired of having only ono great man to monopolize aH posi tions of honor and trust , Bhu has done enough for Dawcs and the indi cations are that she will present the name of lion. 0. . Duras for the posi tion of state treasurer. Mr , Duras has been treasurer of Silino county during two terms and ia a man in every way qualified for * , ho position. Ia Is n man Of culture , thoroughly tjrsod in business affairs and decidedly jopular , Ho has been very reluctant tbotlt entering the fiolflj but has boon urged by numerous friends in "various .actions . of the state and has tlnally tonsontod to become a candidate. Mr , Duras is a Bohemian by birth , but has > eon in this country 'for many years md is thoroughly Americanir.sd , No nan in Saline is more popular and it s almost a foregone _ conclusion that 10 will have the backing of hit county n apito of all that DAWCS can do with iia machine. YOUlt F1011T ON VALENTINE reminds mo of an incident that occurred > currod last spring in Washington City when the president decided to super scdo John J. Gospcr as secretary of Arizona. Bo was induced to send in the name of Hiram M. Van Annan , who was recommended by novoral Pacific coast congrcsamon. Van Ar- man had lived iu Nebraska aomo years ngo and was generally known hero as a bummer and dead boat of the lowest ordor. His nomination was referred to the commit tee on territories of which Senator S.iundors is chairman , A protest was filed against this bid man by several citizens of Nebraska who made a specific charge that Van Arman was a disreputable character.

A. Onow , Athol ; auditor , Augustus F Merchant , Luverott. Powcc-was giren the state central committee to till va cancies that may occur on the state ticket. Resolutions were passed tlmt the groenbackers in Alaitioshould sup port Governor Plulslcd. Thu resolutions state that while the old political parties ridiculed green back principfcs , they had boon adopt- inc them from time to timo. Among the principles stated to have been thus adopted are the policy of destroy ing the greenback chuiigod to reissuing ing it ; silver which was demonetized secretly baa been publicly restored to its former place. Our declaration that the only weakness of the green back was because of the exceptions placed upon its back by friends or dupes of the money power been proved true by the action of Joint Sherman , secretary of the treasury , who upon his own authority re moved the greatest of these ex ceptions and brought the greenback to a premium otar gold and silver coin. Our position that the govern ment should retain for itself the op tion of pa/ing ita bonded debt when ever it had inonoy to do so , instead of funding into long time bonds , is rapidly becoming tlio position of the intelligent masses of our people. The resolutious further demand that a check bo put upon the power of wealth ; that the national debt bo paid as rapidly as the revenues allow , and : refunded to bo made payable at op- ion ; that the government isiuo all ho ' money , metallic or paper , and uako it full legal tender ; abolish the ranks aa banks of issue ; that no ono 10 allowed to monopolism the and , air , light nnd water ; ha. all citizens bo allowed ho'ballot on equal forms ) equal tnxa- ion ; against property qUAiilications or suflrngo ; favoring eight hours as a lay's labor , and a board of arbitiatlon o settle disputes between employer \nd employe ; against convict contract abor. The resolutions conclude' That , as Vmoricnn citir.ono , wo deplore the nr- > itrary imprlaonment nnd illegal do- ontion of our citizens In "British bas- ilcs , and deplore our ( continued mis representation nt the court of St. James by n minister who s\iictionn : the illegal conduct of the British ; ovormuont.
