POINTS IN POLITICS.
Some republicans are mighty enthus
iastic over the prospect that the two
county ofllces now held by populists
will be "redeemed" at this fall's elect
ion, and a full republican ticket,elected.
This is a republican year, they say, and
everything is bound to be republican.
Prospects are certainly flattering; but it
must be remembered that the republi
cans havelo6t many an election by just
such over confidence. It is to be hoped
that the whole- ticket may be elected.
The one way to make it absolutely 6ure
is to nominate the best men for the
various offices. Carelessness in the sel
ection of candidates will inject the ele
ment of uncertainty into a campaign
the outcome of which ought to be a
foregone conclusion. It must not be
forgotten that Judge Tibbctts and Clerk
Baker and Sheriff Miller are strong men
and that every effort, including the
sacrifice of other populist or democratic
candidate?, will be made to secure their
re-election.
The Fifth ward counts that day lost
whose low descending sun finds no new
candidate ready to run. The latest is
Joe McGraw, the grizzly bear of the
"Fift". Joe is a contingent candidate.
He says he does not intend, single hand
ed and alone, to tight the entire field,
consisting of Maule, Sizer, Burr, Coch
ran. Doty, Price, Leese, Johnson, Hoag
land. Brown, Kimtue'l, Ensign, et al.,
but he hopes the delegation will see tit
to present him to th convention as a
candidate for county clerk.
C. H. Morrill one of the two regents
of the 6tate university whose terms ex
pire this year, has rendered a signal ser
vice to the university and the people of
the state, and the state convention
should by unanimous action renominate
him for the office he has held with such
conspicuous success. Mr. Morrill has
appreciated the importance of the office
of regent, and he has at all times taken
a great interest in everything pertaining
to the university. He is wide awake
and progressive -just the kind of a man
for the place. It is understood that he
is not a candidate, but there is little
doubt that tho convention will re-nominate
him by acclamation. Mr. Morrill
will probably retire from the chairman
ship of the republican state central
committee.
The retirement of W. S. Summers
from the office of the attorney general
has caused something more than a rip
ple ic political circles. "Billy." as he is
generally known, is one of the most
popular men who have been connected
with the state government in recent
years. He was made assistant attorney
general when George Hastings succeed
ed William Leese, four and a-half years
ago. Much of the real work of the
office devolved upon him during the
Hastings administration, and his ability
as a lawyer, forcefulness as a speaker,
and his admirable personal qualities,
attracted attention to him from the
start, and commended him to the favor
able consideration of the republican
party and the people. After A. S.
Churchill, of Omaha, was installed in
the attorney general's office Mr. Sum
mers continued to take the same leadiog
part in the conduct of the office as be
fore, and it was supposed that his ap
pointment by Churchill was permanent.
His sudden removal came as a surprise
and many reasons have been advanced
for Mr. Churchill's action. The reason
assigned by the attorney general is not
pleasing to Summers friends and there
is a feeling that it is not the real reason.
Certainly Mr. Summers has remained
in the office and has given most satis
factory attention to the duties. Omaha
men have a weakness for Omaha men;
and the attorney general may have
pined for someone more in touch with
what is politely known as the Omaha
idea. Not much is known in this city
of the new appointee, Geo. L. Day.
convention know that Billy Summers
was the real choice of the convention
for attorney general and there was much
disappointment over the blundor that
was responsible for the failure to have
his name placed on the state ticket
Summers went to Omaha by all odds
the strongest candidate for the nomin
ation and it was generally conceded
that he had a walk-away. But there
was a good deal of excitement in the
closing hours, and in he confusion
Churchill was made the nominee to the
chagrin of a large number of delegates.
Several nominations had been made
following the tremendous excitement
upon the nomination of lorn .Majors and
the resignation of E. Rosewater from
the national committee, and Omaha had
been completely turned down. Jack
McColl, the choice of Omaha for gov
ernor, was made to take a back seat,
and the various propositions in the inter
est of Omaha or Douglas county had
failed to catch on. Candidates for the
nomination for attorney general were
named and the roll was called for a
choice. Delegation after deleeation cast
its vote for Summers and it was sppar
ent that he was well in the lead. But
the enthusiasm was so intense that it
was impossible to hear how all the votes
were cast, and the secretaries were not
able to record the ballots. So, after
many of the counties bad been called
and," according to some persons who
watched the vote carefullj-, Summers
nomination was assured, that gentleman
rose and asked that order be restored
and a new vote taken. He made a
manly speech. He didn't want to take
advantage of anybody, and for tho sake
of all concerned he desired that the
vote be taken over again. This was the
chance Omaha wanted. The delegates
from Douglas county tore off their coats
and spread out over the convention with
a zeal boru of desperation. They plead
wheedled, coaxed, stormed, threatened
and schemed. Omaha hadn't got any
thing and here was a chance to throw a
sop to the Douglas cormorants. Some
of the delegates were affected by tho
threats and for the sake of harmony
they were willing to let Churchill have
the nomination. The A. P. A. was a
prominent feature in the convention
and it was exerted in Churchill's behalf.
The result of all this was that Summers,
who, a few minutes before had had a
sure thing, was knocked out, and
Churchill, who was scarcely a candidate
before the convention assembled was
nominated. That's the way Billy Sum
mers, who was one of the most popular
men in that body, was treated by the
convention. He accepted the situation
gracefully, and his friends were appeas
ed when he was retained in his old posi
tion by the new incumbent.

Delegates to the last republican state
Ever since last summer it has been
conceded that at the proper time Sum
mer's would be given the nomination
that was then within his grasp, and the
recent action of the attorney general
will only enhance his prospects. Mr.
Summers, from aparty standpoint, is an
exceptionally strong man. tie is able
to render such service as few men can
render, and he has contributed effect
ively to republican success in all recent
campaigns. The future will undoubt
edly bring a recompense.
Mr. Churchill'6 nomination was, how
ever, a good thing for the ticket; and
the politicians were generally pretty
well pleased at the manner in which
the matter was fixed up. Mr. Churchill
has made an excellent officer and is a
popular state official.
Mr. Corbett, the state superintendent
of public instruction, not only enjoys
the cordial friendship of leaders of the
republican party, something that his
predecessor did not enjoy, but he is
much respected by the teachers of the
stnte those who are in a position to
know something of the workings of his
department. He is specially popular in
institute work.
