uniforms made by c%onvicts. That's right,
boys, and be careful that you do not wear
uniforms made for convicts.
Nebraska CITY Press. Mr.. McShano has
informally accepted the nomination for gov
ernor. Mr.. Streeter has sigrified that he
will ''stand' for the presidency. Each
stands about an equal show.
Ashland Gazette: John A. McShane has
formally accepted the democratic nomination
for governor, and during the campaign will
run for governor and United States senator
at the same time, and in all probability will
run himself into the ground.
Nebraska Laborer: We have long been
RECALLED with dissertations on the moral
wickedncss of the boycott when welded by
labor organizations, but we notice it has a
different aspect when recommended by the
chief magistrate of a great nation.
Beatrice Republican: The republican leg
islativc ticket of Gage county is composed or
men who cannot be wheedled or bribed by
the railroads into any measure that would be
to shippers or producing classes.
They are men who are in close sympathy
with the people, and who will stand by their
rights.
Wayne Herald: The nomination of Nc
Shane for governor will let him down much
easier than a denomination for congress
would have done, and save him considerable
money. There is no possible chance of his
election, but as the leader of a forlorn hope
adefeat will be less humiliating than a fail
ure to secure a re. election from the First dis
trict.
Blair Republican: Hon. j. A. McShane
will find his campaign for the gubernatorial
chair in this state an exceedingly rocky road
to travel. He is possessed of the most
important requisite to success from the bour-
bon standpoiut-plenty Of money-but grant
him that and the aid Of the third party to
boot-and he won't leave "a grease spot on
the assured republican majority for Governor
Thayer.
Greeley News: The democrats and the
railroads are putting forth every effort to de-
feat William Leese for attorney general.
That tool of monopoly" Munger, is striv-
ing hard for the place, and he would be a
sad commentary on the peoples reg ard for
the daring services of Leese to defeat him.
Leese has proven himself the peoples friend,
and it railroad power causes his defeat it
will be cause for much regret.
Wayne Gazette: we years ago the I rail.
road organs were unanimous In saying that
Van Wyck was politically dead; now they
seem to be Just as united in endeavoring to
Kill him again. In fact the general seems to
have as many lives as the fellow in the sham
battle at Norfolk last week, who was
brought in dead from the field no less than
eight times. But then the general is used to
it. His enemies have been singing his death
song ever since we were a kid.
Cortland Herald: The Omaha Herald says
McShane will be elected governor of Ne.
braska. David Butler says that he will be
elected governor. We would like to know
how many governors they think it will take
to run the state of Nebraska. The repub
lican party has run the state for upwards o.
twenty years with but one governor at
time, and will continue to do so in the future
McShane and Butler need not lose any sleer
over the matter, for John Nj. Thayer will at
tend to the governors department. But fol
presumption the Omaha Herald takes thu
cake.
McCook Tribune: Democratic gall is ex
c~lusively carried in original packages. Build
ing high on the purchasing power OF Nc
Shane's bar'l, they now have the temeriuy t.
claim his election for governor over Thaye,
as quite sure. Preposterousl The claim i
prima facie evidence of insanity. We dis
parage the congressman not. But the sim
pie fact that he carried the First distric
over a weak, unpopular man, by 5000 major
ity, when Thayer carried the district by owe
seven thousand, is hardly sufficient evidence
of his ability to carry the state. Outside o
Omaha he will but poll his party vote.
