Considerable kicking has been. and

will OF the people, Tot alone in Lincoln
county, but in the entire district. \
bOlder or more gh-handed piece Of
trickcry has never before been known
in the history Of the sixth district, and
set an example We hope never to see
followed again by men who claim to
possess any Of the fundamental princi-
pies that undcrlie republicanism This
scheme was headed by Angevine Of
Jewell county, in the interest OfHeron
and each will be held in fond remcm-
brance for it. We are glad that it
evcrlastingIy sealed Her0n's doom for
congress, even if it did defeat Hanback,
But this is TO reason for a republican to
bolt Turner lie had nothing to do
with this seal, and many Of his
delegates, besides those healed by r.
VI. Picker, Of Smith, fought nObly to
prevent the steal. We are Hanback,
men clear through, but under the
circumstances his nomination was i'm
possible, and since his defeat we are
prouder Of him than ever, for the noble
manner in which he yielded his in
fluence and support to E. j, Turner.
We have admired Turner ever since he
fought his way, as coyote from
Sheridan, to his seat in the legislature
in 1881. His ability at that time was
highly complimented, and since that
time we have watched him closely
for development, and are proud to
state that we believe him to be a man
Of spotless character, indomitable
energy and plenty of ability to backit,
although it is not distinguishble in his
outward appearance. We accept him
as our candidate, and feel safe in say
ing that the republicans of Osborne
county will present an unbroken front
and roll up the usual republican
majority for him in November next

IT MAKES EN- KICK.

We as representatives OF a homestead country
republican party over the active opposition Of the
democratic party, keenly record our condemnation
of the paid spy system of Commissioner Sparks.
Who has sent men among our people, who upon
heresay evidence have suspended and cancelled
entries Of land Of homesteaders whose word is OF
more value Chan the Oaths of the said hirelno
spies. We believe that the vexat0us and dishonest
ruling of the said Sparks not from the motives
claimed but from well defined deeply laid plan to
harrass and embarrass the people of republican
states and territories And we demand OF the said
Sparks that he call off his logs of war before the
avenging arms of God calls him home to the land
where Democratic Land Commissioners are un-
known.
The above resolution is from the
hand of John Bgssell, the republican
Register of the Kirwin Land Office
and in his own hand writing, as we are
creditbaly informed Great heavens!
but doesn't he squirm? He don't like
men to belooking up homestead entries
made in the name Of commercial men
who have never seen the land nor ever
will see it. He does like to have men
to be hooking into any Of the many
questionable transactions OF his office:
but we are heartily glad thst he has
shown his fear and thus given evidence
Of the guilt that must be the actuating
motive Of such vindictive trade SO
replete with malicious insinuatiOns,
We demand the immediate removal
Of this offensive partisan and the plac-
| inc there of an honest man When 4
I United States official goes into a
| political convention and make use OF
| his position there on the committee on
resolutions to maligin and abused, to
mislppesnt and inpugn the motives
! Of his superiors we can call him moth
inc but an offensive partisan Of the
must obnoxious type and demand in
the name of decent democracy his
summary Dismissal Stockton Dem
Ocrat.
The Democrat makes false
acusition against Hon. John Bfsscl
Notwithstanding We believe he will
agree with Us that every word OF the
resolution IS facts We see the
ORIGINAL copy of the resolutions as
passed BY the committee and can say
thav were not in John Bissells hand
writing and further we were creditaply
| informed that Mr. Hawkins. Of Mitchell
county was the author Of that part
relating to Sparks, BE that rs it may
we say the resolution is rather cute
and reflects credit upon its author
whoever he may be, This is only 4
side move to get q good honest man
like Bissell removed for offensive
partiSanship" as they can't hatch UP
anything else against hun Capt
Covington Of Logan will without doubt
be Bissell's successor but We cant
believe the Captain will endorse this
methodof ousting Bissell notwithstand
ing the Captain will make an officer
that will reflect credit on the reform

on Lewis Hanback, and his public life
past and present, with the following
words, prompted by a brave heart:
But, he has been defeated, lie US be

THE SEWERAGE PROFILE

1t has frequently been urged rs an objec-
ton against this city. by intending settlers
who made but q superficial observation, that
the city would necessarily be unhealthy
when it grew to be large place, because it
was SO level as to render it impossible to be
adequately drained, it being supposed that
there was not enough fall TO insure good
drainage. As the following will show, such
fears we're groundless. At the last meeting
of the council it was decided to employ
Major Robinett, an eminent civil engineer
Of Louisville, KY, to run a level over and
make profile of line running in a north
and south direction between the Little and
Great Arkansas rivers. Major Robinett has
finished this work and showed the profile to
. representative of this paper yesterday.
The line begins just below the mill race on
the Little river, and runs south along Law
renee avenue to the big Arkansas. The
line is s, 2S-l0O miles in length and the
total fall is % OF feet or sos to the mile,
which must be admitted to be ample, and
should dispel all apprehensions as to the
sewerage question.
Major Robinett informed our representa-
tive that there is absolutely no ground for
fear on the score of adequate sewerage, and
health. A complete system, he said, would
cost considerable, but q complete system
will be unnecessary tor long time. A sec
ton Of q complete system can be constructed
at no very great cost.
