Politicians not Statesmen
From the Council Bluffs Nonpareil.

From the Couuoil Bluffs Nonpareil.
Shortly after the now famous
"lvellth plank" in the democratic
Platform was presented to the people
Of Iowa for their consideration, the
NonbareH ventured the prediction
that it would not meet the approval
of the democracy generally, and that
those even who did apparently en-
dorse it would not be acting in good
faith, but would backslide next year,
Now comes the Fort Madison Dem
ocrat and repudiates the plank entire,
and virtually announces that the
platform next year, when there is a
legislature to be elected, will be
quite different. That enterprising
and honest journal says:
"Our state convention was con-
trolled, says the Fl. Madison Demo-
crat, by very thorough and indiscreet
politicians, not by statesmen" The
Democrat adds: awe repudiate
plank IL (the local option plank in
the platform, and are thankful that a
Legislature is not to be elected this
year. No person could be elected to
the Legislature from this county who
would not repudiate plank H."
Day by day it becomes apparent
that plank twelve was put into the
democratic platform as matter OF
expediency for the one purpose of
holding the better element of the
party that was growing restiye
under the oft.repeated charge that
the party was run by saloon dictation.
1t was simply a tub and nothing
more.

The GREAT NORTHWEST
The Boom 1t is Experiencing-In-
ducements Offered to all

CHADRoN, NEB., July IL.
Again we are in the country of
the Northwest. Leaving Missouri
Valley on the morning of last Tues
day, over the F. L. II NJ. V. r. r.,
we rode for twenty -four hours
through the most beautiful and pic.
turesque country of the west. Alter
leaving Valentine, a point nearly
three hundred and fifty miles west
of the Missouri river, the country is
comparatively new but rapidly be-
coming settled, as is evidenced by
the increased population. A few
years ago, and this country, west of
that point, contained but few settlers
and no farmers, while now, thousands
of acres have been broken and i'm
provements have been added, until
at the present time, land is valued
at from SIS to SIS per acre, accord
ing to the distance from the railroad
aud the condition of the land, and
rapidly increasing in value. West
of this place is some very fine land
that can be taken up under the home
stead law, but ere few years have
elapsed persons desiring small
tract of Uucle Sans domain, will
have to look elsewhere to supply
their wants, as all the valuable free
lands are rapidly being monopolizcd.
The boom that the Northwest is
experiencing in the way of immigra-
ton is immense. Hundreds and
thousands of people are now flock,
ing to to this country. Some come
with the intention of securing free
lands, while others to engage IN
business, but all to attain fortune,
and SUCCESS will surely reward their
efforts.
THE RAIL ROAD BOOM.

evening, he exclaimed

"AINT HE A DANDY !"
The audience roared, the pigs and
chickens in the commissary depart
ment squealed and cackIed, and Il
was several minutes before order
was restored. Then Mr.. Freeman
was again called out and again he
expressed his gratitude in such
manner as to leave no uncertainty
as to his sincerity.
Five minute speeches were made
by H. F. Andrews, VIM. Mallory
and K. b. Cousins, all resounding
with good will and kindly wishes.
The Audubon Cornet Band at
intervals discoursed excellent music,
Of which triple tongued bass solo
by Hugh Moore elected many COM
pliments from the audience and
made the cornetists green with envy.
Mr.. Smith sang bass solo, "The
Tempest,"which was also well re-
ceived. He afterwards sang "Harch-
ing Through Georgia" which was
encored. He responded with
medley of humorous nature.
Space and time torbids extended
note of the many pleasant incidents
of the evening. Suffice it to say
that in all the audience of about 400
people there was not one who did
not heartily accord Mr.. Freeman
the full honors of the evening. In
the rather trying position Mr.. Free.
mans conduct was characterized
with modesty without embarrass-
ment, and he received the hon
ors without semblance of ostentation.
Mr.. Nichols closed the evening
exercises with handsome tribute
to the women who bear the burdens
of life without murmur within the
shado ws Of their homes, and called
tor three cheers for Mrs. E. ]. Free
man, the noble and worthy helpmee,
to her husband in his JOYS and sor-
rows. Three long and rousing
cheers were given and the audience
dispersed to their respective homes.
The event was one that will long
be remembered by every participant,
whether doner or recipient of the
beautiful gifts which bespeak the
sentiments of peace and good will.
The uniform, sword and badge
were purchased at an expense of$s 50.

Mr.. Nichols then ordered the guards
to take Mr.. Freeman and dress him
in the new uniform, and while they
were doing so a quartet composed
OF the Misses Yaggv and Moore and
DR.. Brooks and Mr.. Smith, with
Miss Wattles at the organ favored
the audience with song, "Moon-
light on the Lake" Mr.. Freeman
was then brought to the front and
introduced to the audience as "Col.
E. J. Freeman, formerly Bert Free
man." He then rendered the audi
ence his sincere thanks for the evil
dence OF their regard, and said that
if they had been satisfied with his
humble efforts in promoting the
interests of the town and county'
that was his most gratifying reward
Capt. Stuart was called upon, and
related an instance in the early
history of the county. Mr.. S. was
attending a meeting at Luccock'>
Grove and was trying to secure g
tax for the building OF railroad
from Stuart to Sioux City. He pre-
scented his plans and had the assem-
blage well nigh convinced of it:
merits, when Mr.. Freeman arose
and told the people that he had ;
plan to build a road frem the Gul
of Mexico to the North Pole, anc
that he wanted them to reserve the
tax for his road. This entirely
squelche1 Stuart's plans, and h
folded his paper road and was de
spondent. Mr.. Stuart was now
ready to subscribe to Freeman's road
He closed by attesting Mr.. Freemant
many good qualities and though
the pressing need of the community
was for

Col. +. q. White was then called

ence. After speaking a few moments
he opened small jewel case contain

upon Mr.. Freeman's coat as pres
