of Nebraska should bo as slow in getting to
the polls on election day as Its delegates
were In assembling lu state convention this
morning , tbo party will bo hopelessly loft In

nt 10 o'clock , but Ihroo-quarlcra of an hour
later there was a bare sprinlcliil. ; of , demo
crats in the hall. Chairman Ogden of the
ntuto central committee made his appearance
on the Btago at 10:4.r : > , aud ho wns followed by
n Htraggllng stream of delegates , who slowly
found tbo seats that had been ussli-ncd them.
There was just u suggestion of the ivork of
the decoration lu thn appearance of the stago.
A few yards of buntlnc hung hstlos-.ly . from
the "drop" above the stage. From tbo cor
ner of thn atajo was suspended a plcturo of
Congressman Bryan , cmbillishcd with the
icgcnd , ' 'The people ot Nebraska find their
champion hero , not lu Ohio. "
Bryan's picture was flanucd by portraits of
the national candidates , Cleveland's
being umbelllsucd wltb Iho Inscription ,
"Puollc ofllco is a publlo trust , " whllo

the convention.
At 11 o'clock sharp Charles Ojrclon ,
chairman of the sialo central com-
inlltce , rapped for order and re
quested the secretary to road tbo call.
Mr. Ogden then announced thai tha state

At this Juncture Temporary Chairman

had bowed acknowledgment to Iho hearty
npplauso with which ho was greeted ho pro

that thu democratic party of Nebraska was
prepared to abandon Its principles for n
policy ot fusion with discordant elements.
Ho said thai there was no occasion for this
convention to adopt a policy or prepare a
system of campaign. Tlio recent national
democratic convention at Chicago bud
already done that.
The speaker then alluded to Governor

was called by the democracy of the stnto of
Nebraska to inako a campaign for congress
against Hon. John TalTo , and no ono who
heard Mr. Popplotunln thst series of speeches
will ever forgot his eloquence. His
well trained mind , his vast natural ability ,
his tremendous acquirements , his glowing
earnestness which warmed every wotd , nnd
a presence which inspired confidence , runuo
htifTn master , nnd the majesty ut his oratory
nt that time has never been surpassed In the
Btnto. Truth'ully , nblv , conscientiously , for
more than thirty years , Mr. Popploton ndvo-
rated tbo vrlnclplo * and policies of n gonulno
democracy. As a propagandist of the true
economic nnd civic laitb , which can alone
save poDtilnr government from overthrow
nnd destruction , for nearly forty years Mr.
Pnpploton has stood pro-eminent In the
northwest and Intellectually the peer of any
lawyer or publicist in the American union.
Sympathy In Ill's Allllcllun.
"But , alas , In the early nftcrnnon of a most
successful nnd useful life , Mr. I'opolctnn is
irrevocably bereft of the scnso of blunt ,
stricken wllti absolute and incurable blind
ness.
' Therefore , to Andrew J. I'oppleton , shut

intrs of grateful remembrance , acknowledge
ment of his valuable and long services , and
the assurance that the lleht of his labors for
Justice und popular government , llko an un
clouded sun , Illumines its march toward the
overthrow of class legislation and monopoly. "
Mr. Morton was visibly affected at the
conclusion of the reading of the
unper , and with n volco trembling
with emotion he moved the adoption of the
tribute. The motion was put and carried by
n rising voto.
The motion to adjourn until 2 o'clock was
tnon put and carried.

the deUgalos who were apparently still
anxoun to llilen lo luo same old speocli.
' ( Irnoulully Aclcnuu ludunl tlio Honor.
Taking 'tho platform , Mr. Morton began
one of 111030 bapny speeches , embellished
with graceful sentences mid well rounded
periods for which ha has long been nolod , In
tbo courio of his remarks ho donnunced the
republican party for its rottenness and cor
ruption and usiorlcd that In the present
campaign the democrats were confronted bv
a new party that hud sprung out of tbo loin's
out of the corruption nf the republican
party very much in the manner in which
ilia mushroom tpilnga from the hc&p in tbo
rear of iho farmer's barn , und about as
quickly.
The speaker severely criticised General
Van Wyck's poiltlon In the present cam
paign anil then said that Crounso adhered to
the heterodox principles ot the republican
party with iho sumo tenacity that ho had clung
to tbo ofilccs , He then proceeded tea
a brief dl-cus.ilon of the tariff ques
tion and assorted that the govern
ment of the United States had no
constitutional right to tux the many toonrlub
the few. In conclusion Mr. Morton chal
lenged tbo candidates of the other parties to
meet him iu joint dUcusilon of iho tariff
question in every couniy o ( tuo stato.

F , M , Crow uf Adams couiuv read hU title
clear to iho nomination for secretary of state

The Hist contest developed over the choice

A second ballot was ordered ana taken , but
while thq secretaries wore figuring out the

Nye to O'Sulllvnn , and then n procession of
counties followed suit , until Nye authorized
n friend to withdraw bis vota. All the Nye

Juncture Mr. Weiss himself unloaded a bur
den from the ever worked secretaries by
moving that Mr. O'SulUvan bo nominated by

out a dissenting voto.
Another Context Hcnroit
Another contest nroso ever the selection of
a candidate for treasurer. The namns of
Andrew Beckman ot Burt and Jacob Dlgtor
of Chase were offered to the convention.
The friouds of Mr. BeoKtnan urged his nomi
nation on the ground thut ho represented tha
young democracy ot the nt.\to , because ho
was a Scandinavian , because ho was presi
dent oi i\ national batik und for
other reasons explained at length
and with considerable voUbllltv by
his admirers who spoke in his behalf.
Mr. Blglor's friends assort that the young
democrats of tha stulo oljtrnt to respect the
old d mocraoy , which was porsontllod in the
Cbasa county candidate. The roll call pro
ceeded , and after tun lust county had boon
cnlled It was clcarlv apparent that Mr.
Beckman had received the biggest bunch of
VOIDS. Blglor's unmo wns withdrawn and
Beckman was nominated by acclamation.
Contrary to general expectation tboro were
several candidates for the ofllco ot state
superintendent of public instruction. Tbo

Mr. Bibbs of Gape county , In the best
speech made at tbo session , offered tbo name
of Matthew Curing of Cass county and ho
wns nominated bv acclamation. Ho was
accorded the privilege of making a speech
and ho very cleverly and ustulclv made It
brief.
At this stage of the proceedings Attorney
Sho.makcr'of Omaha called the attention of
Iho convention to the fact that under the
Australian ballot law the democracy of No-
braslia bad no legal existence as a p irty. Ho
wanted n petition prepared for the signa
tures of the delegates. The chairman sug
gested thai the ciattcr had already been nt-
tcndpd to. Jacob Bigler of Chase county ,
who was not nominated ror treasurer , was
lot down easy oy being placed on the ticket
as tbo candidate for commissioner on public
lands and buildings.

Consequences of the ContiiiiilimUon.
NKW Voitic , Aug. 33. Olio ot the precau
tions against cholera which has been thus
fur guarded from the newspapers Is the
bacteriological work going on at the
health department laboratory and at
Dr. Herman Blegs1 private laboratory
to give warning ot the first appo.trnuco
of tbo acourgo. For weeks past every sus
picious case ot cholera mot-bus or dysentery
nnd there many such vthleh ttio health olll-
cors heard of has been followed up. by n
sanitary inspector of tr. Hoberts' stuff.
Specimens have been gathered up and sub
jected to microscopical analysis by Dr. Bls'gi
mm Dr. ttolz , the department chemist nnd
his assistant. So far they have examined
scores ot specimens , but found no truce of the
Asiatic guest.
The intention of the Board of Health waa
drawn to the Crotou watershed today again ,
as the weak print from which the attack
might come. A most exhaustive Investiga
tion was mudo last year of Iho watershed
by the Board of Hoalth. Their report at
that tlmo said : "With but few ex
ceptions , the streams , lakes nnd rosarvolrs
on the watershed show cvidonco of containl
nation , nioro or less marked. The condition
of allairs is of u most serious character and
roqutro.s immediate ntlontion. It is of para
mount Importance that prompt and cfllciont
moans be taken to remove the sources of
contamination ulrcady existing on the water
shed nnd lo prevent further pollution from
now sources. "
The conditions remain ns they were n year
ugo. Two inspectors natiol a district em
bracing 3J9 square tmlos of land , which a
hundred policemen might cover with dlll- (
cully. What may bo the moans of locating
promptly a casb of cholera within this dis
trict , should it occur , does not appear , and
thcro seems to bo no information on the
subjact nt the health department. It is
probably loft to the discretion ot the local
health ofllccra In tha small towns in the dis
trict to determine what pollutes the water.
