offered a resolution by which the county

representation on the republican vote cast
by each ward and precinct In calling the
next and all tiubsequent county contentious
Janus Walsh made a motion to table the
resolution , which he afterwardb withdrew ,
and C S West of the Seventh ward offered
a rcnolutlon Instructing the committee to
adopt the Crawford etstcin of toting as a
substitute
The thalr ruled that the substitute WBB In

an the delegates attempted to discuas the
two resolutions together
G It Williams made a vlgoious appeal
for the country representation which was
loudl ) cheertd bj the country delegates. He
declared that the Increased representation
had been given to the ? country to bring tlic
farmero back from the tagarics of populism ,
and that now when the work had been well
accomplished the party could not afford to
turn the.ni down.
V n Walker wanted the word "precincts"
struck from the resolution , leaving the coun
try with UN present representation , but this
was not wconiU-il , and James Austin of South
Omaha shut off further discussion by a mo-
tievi to table both resolutions.
H T Ltavltt tried to Induce the chair to
recognize an amendment to refer the resolu
tions to a eprclal commltUe. but failed and
the moMon to table was carried b ) 97Vi to
HOW TO FIND OUT.
rill a bottle or common glass with urine
and let It stand twenty-four hours ; a sedi
ment or nettling indicates an unhealthy
condition of the Udneja. When urine
stains linen it is positive ctldencc of kid
ney trouble. Too frequent desire to uri
nate or pain in the * back U also convin
cing proof that the kldueys a-id bladder

WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed , that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root tbt * great kidney remedy , fulfills
every wish in relieving pain In the back ,

the urluary passages. H corrects inability
to hold urine and scalding pain in passing
it , or bad clltcts follow lug use of liquor ,
wine or beer , and overcomes that unpleas
ant necessity of l lng compelled to get up
many times during the night to urinate.

LONDON , Aug. 21 The bad weather and

tailed during the week found London empty

The enthusiastic reception which the duke
and duchess of York have met with In Dub
lin Is said to have greatly disappointed the
Irish nationalists The tlslt has been man
aged with excellent tact. In marked contrast
te > the tlslt of the prince and princess of
Wales to Ireland , when It was sought to
I make party capital out of the event. At
Dublin the reception of the duke and duchess
| ' was made heartier than at Kingstown , where
I the royal partj landed , and more general
j than anticipated b } even the moil enthusi
astic lojalists The enthusiasm Increased as
the ro > l party proceeded from the btatlon
through the street , and the occupants of
the steps of the city hall , over which the
flag of the cltj of Dublin defiantly floated
In place of the Union Jack , were among
the loudest In welcoming the duke and
duchess of York to Ireland. It Is not to
be wondered at that the suggestion Is no
regarded favorably to create the duke of
York , prince of Ireland , and to make that
tltlo a permanent one for the eldest son
of the son of the prlnco of Wales.
The Invitation accorded to Prince Francis
of Teck to join the Anglo-Egyptian expedi

Is restored to the favor of his Influential
relations The prince was packed off to
India for Incurring a heavj gambling debt ,
his friends being compelled to flnd the
money to satisfy it. This , however , they
only did on condition that the prince Join the
district staff of Bombay , where the conduct
of the prlnco has been most exemplary.

The performance of no-called copyright
productions of various plaj to fulfill the re

rise to much comment recently. It IB seri

potable that a tent may sometime be made
to secure judicial opinion on the subject
Thewi performance's have come to consist
of a rather farcical reading of the lines by
