When the last roll call was tnado and
the republican stale eoiivi'iilion adjourned
kino ilic , at ! J o'clock a. in. yesterday
morning , it Was a worn and weary rowd
of delegates lhal surged forth from tlio
I oiora | liouao after a practically ail nights'
work. The expression on all sides was
hoard that Judge Weaver liad made
them an cxcellont elialrman , and as thai
gentleman searched around for his voice
before leaving llio building ids face liad
tliu expression of a man who knows when
ho has had enough. The last Iwo hours
of the con volition wore ii : d in fettling the
question of favoring a vote on a prohib
itory amendment , and the .struggle win
long and foughl inch by inch. Tlio
question favoringsubinlsVu. ! ! passed by a
vote of ! H1 lo 18 ! ) , and .since its passage -
ago llio sober second llioiight i.s
reaching forlh. The Hr.K reprc.sonla-
live , in conversation with Lancaster re
publicans , linds that the sentiment is
very pronounced against It , and that the
belief i.s general lluit the incorporation of
the submission question in Ilic slate plat
form will tend materially toward weak
ening llio legislative lickct in Lancaster ,
already weakened by internal dissoiilions
among republicans already. Said one :
"There are no prohibitionists in Lan
caster Vflio will bo over back to tlio re
publican parly by Unit resolution , or any
temperance .stand of any Kind taken uy
the parly. The prohibitionists in Lan
caster county , " ho continued , ' 'didn't '
want pence or harmony of any kind , "
and ho seemed to think if I hey were
salisflcd with anything tlioy would bo
. Othello like , willioutany occupation. The
' same opinion scorns to bo general , and is
\ being very freely expressed.
As was predicted tlio Lancaster dolega-
lion in the state convention took an "ap
propriation" stand , divided its vote
around and wonl through tlio work with
out committing itself , and going forth
with all sections feeling friendly for tlio
next appropriation session. Onodologalo
became enthusiastic enough to rejoice in
Winterstein's defeat and the selection of
Laws , who , ho avowed , would restore
Editor Gcro to llio position from which lie
wns incontinently tired.

' STATI : IIOUSR NOTIS. :
I ll There was a great influx of visitors at
. . . 10 state liou.so yesterday comprising
largely delegates who wore in attendance
at the state convention and found time
after its clo.se to look after business matters -
tors or view the capilol building for
pleasure. There was a deal of handshak
ing and congratulations for those oflicers
renominated. and several hundred people
ple explained in as many different ways
to General \Vintersteen just how ho came
to bo t'ofeated.
Tlio supreme court has rendered a de
cision regarding fees for registering
bonds that is not without interest to the
public. This decision holds thai no fees
can bo collected for registering any bonds
with the stale auditor excepting county
bonds ; that precinct , school districl
bonds and the like are lo be registered by
the stale , without llio asking of a fee , and
without any expense to the precinct or
district in the registering.
Chase county will shortly have an ap
praisement made of its school lands.
The necessary blanks for such work have
boon forwarded to the proper parties for
that work. This will open some good
land that will be subject to lease.
The eighty $1,000 bonds created for a
sewerage system for Lincoln have made
their appearance al the auditor's ollico
and been registered. These bonds run
twenty years and draw fi per cent inter

THE ROMANCE OF A SLAVE.
Once llnnteil by llloiidliniinili nnil
Now n linndiMl Proprietor ,
"Do you see that old colored man in
HID buggy driving around this corner ?
\Vf.H , Unit is old Demp.oey Clark. About
forty years ago he and his brother liris-
low were as likely young negro men as
could bo found among tlio slaves on any
plantation , They were put on HIP block
nnd sold at public outcry to the highest
bidder before the court-house door in
Hawkinsvllle , " said an old citi/en lo the
editor of the Hawkinsvillo ( Ga. ) Dis
patch.
"Among the bidders for Dempscy and
Hrlstow was old Jonathan Coley , who
was rich in lands and slaves. Demi.jey
nnd Hristou- said to Air. Coley : 'You
needn't buy us , Mr. ( 'oloy , ca'so vro niv.'t
agoin'to live will ye. ' 'Oil , well , " replied -
plied Mr. Colev , 'I ve got plenty of dog , '
which meant that if they should run away
he could capture them with the keen-
scented hounds used in those days.
"Sure enough the old man Coloy
bought DuniDscy and Hristow , and , a's
good as tlioir word , they tool : to the
woods as soon as Ihey could escape from
his plantation. They were captured
once or Iwice , but made their escapn
a-rain , and immediately took up their
lite in ( lie woods.
' 1 remember thr.l on cr.s occ'sSos : n
party of hunters with tliuir negro dogs
struck the trail of Hristow and Dempsev ,
HIM C-iiitsci ! tlK-in liito' tlio evpre * * iun < rlc
and among the lagoons just below Hig
Crook , four miles from Hawkinsville ,
where the creek empties into the Ocniul-
joo. The swamp was almost impenetra
ble , but tlio hunters followed their dogs
and approached within lifty or a hundred
yards of 'tlie runaway niggers , " as they
were called. They provuil to bo Demii-
soy and Hristow , who by some means hail
obtained a gun or pistol and defied their
pursuers. Do.mp.soy and Hristow were
stout men , and t hey swore they would diu
before tlioy would bo arrested.
"Among the hunters was Tobq Me-
Grill' , a brother of the present ordinary
of this country. Mr. McGrin" fired ono
shot at the fugitive slaves and they re
turned the shot. It then became ovi'dent
that they were armed and had determined
not to bo captured alivo.
"The hunters withdrew and loft Donip-
soy and Hristow in the swam ) ) , and they
remained in the woods three years. At
last old man Coley , despairing of ever
gelling any service out of them , sold
thorn in tlio woods to Hryant W. Hrown ,
of Houston county. Mr. Hrown told his
slaves that lie had bought Dempsuy and
Hristow , and they at once left the woods
and wont to liis plantalion , where they
remained faithful slaves until the close
of the war.
"I don't know whcro Hristow is.
whether living or dead , but that i.s old
Dempscy out there in thai buggy , and ho
is now Known as Dempsey Clark. He
owns a plantation of four or five hundred
acres in Houston County , and lias several
ijood mules and horses. He is a good
farmer , is very industrious and manages
well. He has a good erndit among the
merchants of Hawkinsvillo and Perry ,
and he has two daughters attending college -
logo in Atlanta. "

North Oiiinhn Toughs.
M. A. Heck , a block watchman on Cum-
ingslreet , appeared in police court yester
day morning and swore out a warrant for
Iwo North Omaha toughs , Jim Lee and
Tom Hayes , for assaulting him. These
men were raising n disturbance in the
Military saloon , la.st night , when
lieck was called in to assist in
quelling Iho row. IMO and Hayes
then turned on him and assaulted
him brutally with stones and clubs , also
cutting a dee ) ) gash in his forehead witli

not dangerously injured. Leo and Hayes

KIND WORDS FOR OMAHA.
A Characteristic lint tor with Sonic

Sense In It.
I-'OIIT NtontiAiiA , Sept. 21' ' . [ Corres
pondence of the Hii : : . ] In these sere si nil
yellow days of siuininn wlion the volltl-
cil : conventions arc behaving so badly ,
tin.1 niiiul of the disapDointod politician
should turn westward. Let sill who tire
disappointed come out hern and they can
get both wealth and honors in nbimdanry.
In Mich overcrowded places sis Omaha ,
Kails City , and , indeed , all southern ami
eastern Nebraska , there are too many
people for the land , whilti out hnro wo
have too much land for tlio people. Here
the ollices won't go around , hero
we cannot got men to ( ill all the
good olllees. At tins vcrv
moment northwestern Nebraska is in
need of a good candidate for governor ,
United Slates senator , nrcsidunt and vice-
president , while lor such oflices as con
gressmen , sheriff , treasurers , .state sena
tors and assemblymen , tliero are very few
men hero wiio would imvo tliom. Coni > )
out , dear , disappointed frlcn'la , to this
great and glorious west , and leave the
litirgling cast forever. Hero the young
politician , iinoppressod by packed con
ventions , rings , and combinations , rely
ing on his own abilities , can rapidly rise
lo position and famo. Wo hnvo no mon
eyed aristocrats , no tvranical bosse.s , no
mossbacks ; but all who are willing
to work can find reward for
Ihcir toil. Hero are lands for
llio landless , briefs for lawyers ,
iviiiupts for Ihe doctors nnd ollices for
llio olliceless. The west , "tho mighty
west , " that land where llio bufl'ulo still
roam. " * . au J an occasional wild savage
dwells . Como friends and help us carve
out new .states and counties from the
boundless prairies that stretch away and
away toward llio .selling sun.
. WHAT in : SAW IN' TIII : KAST.
While lately in the cast 1 saw millions
of men lolling lo obtain a scanty subsis-
tancc. Every day I heard young men
say , "if 1 liad come hero lifty or hun
dred years ago , 1 might Jiavo done some
thing , I might have become rich , but
now nl } is owned and I must labor for tliu
capitalist. There are no farms to open ,
no banks to organize , no ollices to fill. .
The land is so high I can never hope
to save money enough to buy a
farm. " Even the clerks in the banks
and stores are old gray headed men who
have been hero for years. No , there ia
nothing lor mo but to work , work , lor
a pitiful existence. " Foolish young
nion. Tlioy do not know the west What
it lias taken their fathers fitly or a hun
dred years lo accomplish in the cast they
can do in the west in fifteen or twenty
years , at most. People do not como v cst
in covered wagons in Iwos and
Ihrces as Ihoy did inlo Ohio ,
Illinois , Indiana and Iowa , when those
states were settled , but tlioy como by
train loads , by hundreds and thousands
daily. The railroads no longer follow
the people , but tlio people follow the
railroads. A new line of country issei/.ed
upon by some enlorprising railroad and
a road pushed through it ; tlitmthe people
hoar of it , and following the rail spread
lo llio right and loft ot the line , filling
tip the country in one , two , or at tlio most
three years. Towns spring up like magic ,
Stores , banks , mills open and in a year
or two a city is built. These arc the op
portunities for young men and they will
not always last. The best time lo come
wcsl and settle is just now. There never
was a time so favorable as llio present ,
and I doubt it there ever will be again.
In 188(1 ( and 1837 1,000,000 , farmers are
wanted in western Nebraska. Wyoming
and Montana. Those will make business
for 10,000 merchants and thousands of
young lawyers , doctors and professional
men of all kinds. The railroads are
building rapidly into brand now regions ,
and these must bo settled at once. Don't
bo afraid , but go west , po west young
man nnd grow tip with the country.
That advice is a chestnut , it is true , but
it is none the less sound on that account.
OMAHA TO Till ! KKONT.
Omaha has astonished herself in the
last two years and it now but remains
for her to push on in the way slio is do
ing. Hut Omaha wants moro conimnni-
ciiUous , moro railroads , especially a rail
road to the norlhwost. Docs Omaha ap
preciate that tlio principal travel between
the east and tliu west must in all time
pass close by her and .should puss through
iier. All western Montana , Washington
territory , Oregon , Idaho and California
\yill bo drained east soon over the grt.-al
lines pushing westward now. The
Union Pacific , the Hiirlingtou
route , the great Northwestern should
all ho Lrought to Omaha , if Omaha
wishes to bo a really great city. Now is
tliu time , and oven a year or two from
now it may bo too lalo lo conccnlrato
these lines in Omaha. Let Omaha bo up
and doing and wait for nobody to como
to her. The Powder Hivor country , still
impenetrated by railroads and in a meas
ure unseUied , is as largo as llio state of
Pennsylvania , and is naturally tributary
to Omaha. The route to llio wonderland
of tlio west , the grout national park ,
should bo through Omaha. The trade of
tliu Black Hills lighltullv belongs to
Omaha. People leaving Oregon , Wash
ington and all western Montana to como
cast can como by way of Helena ,
Ogdcn and the national park and
bo landed in Chicago botoro they
could roach there by any other route.
They should all como and go through
Omaha , and should buy their goods and
trade there. Let Omaha bo alive and
work. Now is the limo lo bring the lines
of travel from the great northwest lo her
doors. The west is turning over yearly ,
but the lines of commerce and travel will
soon bo lixcd , and once fixed they cannot
bu changed.
Till : KAll.KOADS.
Mr. Hnghitl will no doubt , during the
next vear. push on his Northwestern well
into the Powder river country , and pur-
haps as far west as Fort Casper or South
pass. Mr. Potter , of the H. & M. , is
Keenly alive to llio situation , and is not
going to allow tlio Northwestern to
carry oil' all the honors. Had
the H. & M. people taken
Mr. Potter's advice , they would hnvo
boon on the Niobrara years ago , and
now nerlmns in tlio Powder river coun
try. Hul tlioir Broken How route will
still give them an entrance into tlio golden
northwest , and they can yet reach tlio
Powder river and far west by way of
t'ctterman and tlio Itig Horn. Tlio Wy
oming Central will p'robably , on reaching -
ing Coltonwood or Douglas , lind it to its
interest to turn west toward the Wind
river country , but in doing that it will
lese nothing , for there are good lands ,
coal , timber , oil , cattle , and even gold
and silver in the Wind river region. I
was in command up there for three years ,
as far back as 1801) ) , and I 'know
what kind of a country it is. It
is a good country and will furnish
trade for moro than ono line
of railroad. The development of
the west is a glorious tiling , and I won
der so few people seem to understand it
or take an interest in it Such opportu
nities for young men were never before
iiU'orded in our country and never will
bo again ; neither can they last long. To
close whuro I began , it distresses mo to
set ) so many men this fall disappointed
in not getting office. It seems to boa
bad year in that respect , and th oldest
inhnliitnnl < Vn oniinnt eount with rer-
tainty on getting what lie wants. Hut if
the disappijintod politicians will only
pack up their grip * and como west they
will itrobably liud ju < t what they want ,
and if they do firtt there is plenty of land
to farm , and they can go to farming.

NAXCK COUNTY NKWB.
Itcninrluibli ; tfrowtli in Seven Years
Mnttcr-i nt l-'iillcrton.
Ffl.l.r.irmx , Neb. , Seit. ) Sli [ Cot-re-
spondenco of the liti : : ] Nnuco county
lids year has bdeii a veritable Garden of
Eden. While the sin rounding stales
have suffered from the drought there ha *
been no dry weather here to speak of.
During June nnd llio early part of July a
drought was fearedbut rain came in sea
son and as a consequence our crops are
not to bo excelled. Corn is splendid
Wheat and millet have done well. Farm
ers have ii'jtliing lo complain of except
the ridiculously low prieu of grain.
The line class of people who hnv < set
tled Nanco county is a matter of remark
to strangers visiting here. This is due
in part , perhaps , to llio fact that there
was no homesteading. A person to pro
cure land must have some means and the
rush of penniless squatler.s was avoided.
This county has not settled ns rapidly as
.somei places , but what it lacks in num
bers it makes up in quality. Seven years
ago there was but a single house in Fill-
lerton. To-day it lias a population of
fully 0110 thousand. Only the other day
a gentleman made llio remark thai this
town ha ; ! gpnvn wonderfully during
tlio lust seven years. He stipplctr.t' ! i"l
tliis statement by adding isome seven or
eight yours ago Mr. Handall Fuller oH'cred
mo hi.s claim for a few hundred dollars.
This includes tlio present town of Fuller-
ton. Tim gentleman spoke in a way
which showed that ho realized fully tlio
bargain that had slipped from his grasp.
Mr. Fuller came here about ton years
ago , with a droye of entile. Ho pitched
camp at tlio fool of llio blutl , near the.
present town situ. For two years he lived
in a tent tending hid cattle. vin-yi r/ ti | < >
"
monotony duripg the minitnor "timo by
flghling mosquitoes. T'iP o insects
proved such a pusl that it taxed his in
genuity to the utmost. Two sheets were
sewed together in the form of a sack , and
llio opening tilled u.i with a draw .string.
At night , much to the discomfiture of the
mosquitoes , ho would crawl into Ids
unique bed and , by means of the. draw
string , ( iiill tlio sack close about his neck ,
leaving only his head exposed. The in
vention was a marked success.
The suitiiis'titutud by the county against
the ox-county ollicials promises to create
a stir. The charges , if substantiated , arc
serious enough. McClollaud fe.x-coiiniy
clerk ) , it i.s claimed , is % 1HOD short in Id's
account , Sturtovaiil about $ iGfji ) , and
Jackson to the amount of,810. . Able
attorneys have been secured for both tlio
prosecution and dufen.sc. The petition
was filed too hue to come in at llio iall
Icrm of llio district courl , so the case will
have lo lay oyetfitill llio spring term.
The republican county convention was
held at Hie court luiiiso on Mondayt Sep
tember 27. Mciklojohn was renominaled
for the state seriate , and will , without
doubt , bo olocted. The democrats are to
hold a convention Saturday , Oclober 2.
Some one will be , nominated to oppose
Meiklejohn , but llio slioiy for a democrat ,
being elected to'that ollico is very slim
indeed. '
This year a county attorney is , for the
firsl time , to bo clouted in this county.
Clarenci ) E. .Hrady received the republi
can nomination. A great deal of interest
is mnnilostcil concerning this olllco , and
tiio lighl will bo'a ' close one.
A great mtiny'have ' taken advantage of
the shooting aiiason now on hand.
Chicken hunting1 is quite a success. Ono
man killed nearly forty in a single day.
As to the home folks , chicken season
lasted nearly all summer. They have
been hunted almost from the moment
they emerged from llio shell. It is lo bo
regretted thai so litllo attention is paid
to the game laws. At tlio present rate ,
in a few summers the cliickcn will bu ex
terminated.
The Guuoa people have cause to con
gratulate themselves on the success ot
the Genoa Leader under ils present man-
ngcmenl. J. F. Hixby , tliu editor , was ,
for years , business manager of tlio Nanco
County Journal and is a thorough going

Tlio Canadian I'nclflc'K Power.
Chicago Tribune : In a late issue note
was nuido of Mr C. P. Iliintinglon's
ideas regarding tlio competition of tlio
Canadian Pacific for transcontinental
business. Wiion ho derided its prospects
ho probably nlloclod moro confidence
than lie really felt. Ho snys it will never
amount to much as a transcontinental
lino. Tliis is not so certain as it may
seem to tint eastern manager , and tlio supreme
premo test whioh is to bo applied this
winter will go far toward proving
whether it isjto bo _ , a moro summer reader
or no. That tlio line is of some consequence
quence at thissuason of the year is proven
by the fact th'atil is taking business out
ol New Yorkitind 'San ' Francisco at re-
ilmfcd ratesJo jut sure , but unoiigh to
worry the old , lines considerably. At
present liio trip bvcr the Canadian Pacific
possesses the charm of novelty. Many
who are fumilinr with the older lines
like to see > what the country
traversed Ijy , ( ho extromu northern
line is liljo. A certain amount
of pleasure travel.will bo attracted by a
run through Amerla , Assinaboino and
Manitoba vttiich are unknown regions
to most porsona-f-especially if they can
combine economy witli enjoyment. It
is hardly proltahju that the line will carry
any great amount of California freight ,
but it has the power of making the rates
unprofitable for its competitors. In an
other direction , however , the opposition
ot the Canada Paiilic is only in its cradle ,
and it will not really begin to bo fell
until tlio new line of stcnmurs is laid on
to China and Japan , If Sir John A.
McDonald's proUiclions are fulfilled , and
the now line gets a round subsidy from
the British government it will become a
formidable competitor , indeed , for the
tea trade and coolie trallio , and will cut
very seriously into tlio business of both
the Pacific Mail and the Ocmdontal and
Oriental steamship lines to San Fran
cisco , That tlio business of transporting
ton from Cliimi and Japan to the United
States and Europe is important is evident
from the sharp struggle that is going on
between the Northern and Central Pa
cil'm to secure the lion's share of it. It is
quite unreasonable to nssmnf that so far
us this trade i < concerned the Canadian
Pucillo ' 'will never amount to much. "
Judging from the dMnorali/ation it lias
already cuu-od , it will amount to a great
deal.
A Vntniililo Iteini'dy.
Urandreth's Pills have been used by
millions of human beings. Tlioir success
is founded upon the theory of reason ,
nnd an attentive observation of syiup-
toius of disease. Whatever makes bad
digestion breeds disease , and whatever
iuaki-3 good digestion cures disease.
Hrandreth's Pills make good digestion ,
purify the blood nnd remove all bad hu
mors out of the boily by tlio organs ot
tiie stomach and bowels. They act In
harmony witli vital action and work of
nntrilio : . ; the strength increase'tho skin
and the eye become clear , and the symp
toms of the malady arc surely rendered
milder by their use. They arc harmless
for all ages and conditions.
One hundred convicts at San Quciitin
niarc"d ! : in a body , one day last week , to
the room \vhrr the directors were in
session and demanded to have a talk ,
with those ollicials. Captain Ail ! ordered
the gnus brought to bear against them
and they took to flight. They claimed
as tlio cause for the uprising that the
food served to iliem was not lit to eat.
"Consumption Cure"
would bo a truthful iianio to give to Dr.
Pierco's "Golden Medical Discovery , "
the most elllcaeions medicine yet discov
ered for arresting the early development
of pulmonary disease. But "consump
tion euro" would not Millicieully indicate
the scope of its inlluciice ami usefulness.
In all the many diseases which spring
from a derangement of the liver and
blood the "Discovery" is a safe and sure
specific. Of all druggists.
