Work of the Judicial Convention

The republican judicial convention
at Council Bluffs, yesterday. nomi-
mated II. E. Deemer,A. B. Thornell
and George Carson. OF the nomi-
nees the Nonparicl says:
III. E. Deemer, esq, of Mont
gomery county, is the youngest OF
the three candidates, but his studious
habits more than overcome any
disadvantage that he might labor I'M
der on that account. He has fine
legal mind, and his election will be
a compliment and credit to the
young republicans of the district. A,
B. Thornell, esq, of Fremont coun-
ty, is the present prosecuting at
torncy of the district in which po-
sition he has become acquainted
with the people, and has made
friends in all the counties where his
official duties have called him as was
shown by the unanimous vote that
he received in the convention, having
received every vote on the informal
ballot, which was subsequently made
! formal. Senator Carson also re-
ceived the unanimous vote of the
convention from the first. Senator
Carson was not candidate in any
sense of the term, being constantly
at Des Moines in the discharge o
his duties on the impeachment com
mission, where he is closing the la
bors of his eighth year as law
maker"

WHEN the news was received at
Denison last Saturday, by the Asso-
ciated Press that Seemann, nominee
for postmaster, had been confirmed
by the Senate, there was loud re-
joicing among the faithful, but it was
afterwards learned that the report
was erroneous, and that he had been
rejected instead. Then the great
Democratic heart bled and was sad
The fact has been well established
that Seemann is an ex-saloon keeper
wholly unworthy of the trust.

Dakota Letter.

OELRIcH, OAK, June IS, 1886.
Mr.. Editor: | have at last found
the place for the poor man. 1t is in
Fall River county, Oak. This coun-
ty lies in the extreme northwest
corner of the Territory. 1t is 4ox
90 miles, and contains $4,000 sec
tons of as beautiful land as Audu-
bon has. The lay of this county is
similar to the land in Viola town
ship, Audubon county. The soil is
very good. Oats, wheat, corn, pota
toes, beans and other crops look
well. This county is watered by
the Cheyenne river and Horsehead
creek These streams have good
amount of timber on their banks.
In the eastern part of the county we
have the Cheyenne Agency. In the
central part of the county we have
farms enough for 10000 more set
tiers. And let me tell you here,
that 6 menths from now your chance
of getting a fine farm will be gone.
In the western part of the county
are the mountains. They are cover
ed with pine timber in great abund-
ance. There will be timber there
tor years to come, and ali it will
cost you will be the work OF cutting
and hauling it. There is some
trouble in getting water here. The
water generally is good. There is
plenty of hay here, but a good mar
ket for all you have got. Hay is
worth $50 per ton. | will say far
, ther, that there is good chance for
, homesteaders yet. If you want a
S present of 80 acres, come and get it
: now-your posts and fire wood will
: cost you nothing. Come all that
can; we would like to have you in
: our settlement. Our settlement in,

will now give you a description
of Oelrich and the chance for busi
8, ness there. Oelrich is situated 2
s' miles from Buffalo Gap, and 4
miles from Chadron. tbs surrounde

POINTS OF SUPERIORITY.

1t runs lighter than any other plow made,
because by of the perfect support afforded BY
three wheels the pillow is carried, not dragged.
It Is easy on the team, because there is
absolutely no weight Oh the horses
neckS.
1t turns square corners, turning fur
rows either inward or outward, as may be desired
The rear furTOVv wheel is locked
when blowing straight ahead, but unlocked by foot
trip when necessary to turn. After the corner Is
turned il locks itself automatically.
The caster wheels running in furrow
eHectually prevent any strain on the frame OF the
plow, or the horses when turning. The pillow -
turned on the same principle a cart.
The front furrOw wheel Is at
point of p1Oyv, insuring uniform depth when
crossing dead burrows or bitches.
The land axle has n spring that
keeps the pillow from being too rigid and causes 1t to
cut level when crossing corn burrows or ridges.
The team is hitChed the same as to
walking pillow, and the horses draw easily and natu-
rally.
