Mr.. EpIToR:-What one republican
may say will have but little influence
upon such big crowd as will be found
in the United States running the next
republican nomination for president.
Under republican rule he cannot, how
ever, be deprived of free speech.
What a grand time the party would
have If every gentleman who has been
named as a candidate for president,
would follow the example of James G..
Blaine and say that he will not present
his name to the convention in June! In
such an event it would leave that con-
vention perfectly free to select candi-
date for president in q harmonious and
united way. Such proceedings would
give the party q strength and power at
the polls that would he invincible, and
crown its efforts with success.
Not q candidate has been named, nor
will one be, but will admit the right and
even the equity of Mr.. Blaine to take the
field against his former opponent. Some
people believe and go 50 far as to charge
that he was defrauded ont Of the elec-
toral vote of one state, else he would to-
day be president Of the United States.
With the candidates names, personally
and individually withdrawn, it would
leave the convention at liberty to make
their own selection with such unity as
to astonish themselves, and no candidate
left out with just reason to complain at
the final result. A REPUBLICAN.

for support.
Resolutions were also introduced en-
dorsing the work of the w. G. T. o.,
declaring for the enforcement of the law
against selling tobacco to minors, and
for the suppression Of impure literature.
The convention then adjourned. After
the adjourning a meeting was held to
organize a prohibition bureau. The OBJ
jects of the bureau are the systematic
furnishing Of prohibition speakers. A
permanent organization was effected by
adopting a constitution and electing the
following officers: George E. Blgelow,
president: H. E. George, vice president;
81. c. Bittenbender, secretary; l.. G..
Humphrey, treasurer.
After the adjournment OF this depart
ment, a memorial service was held in
honor of the memory of John B. Finch.
This evening a mass meeting was held.
at which Joe Critchfeld, Montague and
others made addresses.
The Rev. George Woodby, Of the col
Ored Baptist church of Omaha, electrified
the convention this afternoon and even
ing by his powerful and convincing logic
and his mastery eloquence. It was not
known that he was a speaker, as he had
quietly and modestly kept a seat in an
obscure corner, but from this day on he
will stand in the front rank of Nebraska
orators Omaha Republican.

DAN THE LOUP.
For Power and Revenue.

f0r rover and Revenue.
EDrroR JoURNAL:-In your issue of
Feb. 18th I noticed few remarks BY D.
D. Hardy concerning the availability OF
the Loup river as water power, which
led my thoughts in that direction, and
ended by the following Offering:
As to the possibility Of utilizing the
stream, think no thoughtful man has
any doubts, and I think the. difficulties
to be surmounted are greatly overrated
As to the outlay Of money required to
carry any scheme to a successful close
it is beyond the bounds Of this limited
article to discuss
Taking for granted the infinite ad-
vantages to be derived from successful
factories proposed in previous articles,
We will confine ourselves to the physical
Characteristics of the Loup river.
There are few rivers in the state, (if,
indeed, there are any that carry q more
steady supply Of water than the Loup.
In this respect it is far superior to the
Platte. This is most essential point,
for it evidently is the minimum supply
that must determine the amount OF
power any stream can furnish.
Again, the Loup has a big fall, thus
making it available for ditching and
carrying portion Of it of to where it
could be utilized. This plan, however,
at further consideration. will appear
very expensive when carried out on a
small scale, and hardly practical when
carried out on large scale.
It must be borne in mind that no sue
cessful scheme for the utilization of the
Loup can be carried out without large
outlay Of money primarily. But If the
outlay is properly applied We can also
obtain a tremendous rdter po,rer,
which could be made to pay big inter
est on the first cost.
With the peculiar advantages that can
be made use Of near Columbus, 1 think
the most practical scheme would be to
dam the whole river. This may appear
impracticable. but We need not look far
to find larger rivers that have been dam
med. The Ohio just below Pittsburg
for instance supplies the case, and the
Ohio is a river that is more subject to
overflOws than the Loup.
The greatest difficulty to be encoun-
tered in damming the Loup would be
the qmcksand bed; this, however, is not
insurmOuntable.
Again, If in the construction Of the
dam, proper prscaution were taken to
make away with the ice in the spring
the possibility of an ice gorge would be
greatly lessened and thus the dam would
be protection to the bridges and prop
erty owners in the vicinity.
In short believe in a few year, some
lucky genius will convert our devastat-
ing Loup into a stream Of wealth, Of
which I hope Columbus will obtain her
due share.
Yours truly,
INCoa.

The PrOhibitiOniSts.

LINCOLN, Neb., Feb. 16.-The state
prohibition convention met this morning
at 9 O'Clock. The Hon. II. W. Hurdy
offered resolution of regret for the de-
mise, and sympathy for the family of the
'.late national leader, John B. Finch"
The resolution was adopted by rising
vote, after which, while standing, the
convention sang, "Gone to His Rest"
The committee on platform then re-
ported, with nine resolutions, in sub
stance as follows: The prOhibitionists
acknowledge God as the Sovereign of all
men and asserts the greatest issue before
the American people is the absolute
prohibition. in state and nation, of the
traffic of alcoholic liquor; demands of
congress the repeal Of the internal rev.
enue law, which authorizes the United
States officers to grant federal permits
for the traffic in alcoholic liquors to
illicit outlaws in prohibition states and
local territories; declares for equal rights
and privileges without regard to sex,
race or color, and in favor of immediate
municipal suffrage to Nebraska women;
indicts the republican party for neglect
ing to submit prohibitory amendment
at the last session OF the legislature;
charges the democratic party with dis
loyalty to the principles Of free govern
ment in denying by their platform utter
ances and legislative vote, the right of
the people to say whether or not the
gigantic crime shall be outlawed in the
state and nation; asserts that the liquor
question is greater than the traffic ques-
ton in the next presidential campaign;
declares in favor Of reasonable and effec-
tive regulation of all decent branches of
public commerce, and invites all wage
workers to join the prohibition party in
a crusade against all enemies of honest
labor; demands pension to all disabled
union soldiers and sailors of the late war
who are dependent on their own labor

ED. JoURNAL:-I have been studying
over Mr.. Hardy's letter in the JOURNAL,
and the more think of it, the more GER
tain feel that We can have here the
most magnificent water power in Ne
braska, which, Of course, means that
this can be made the greatest (be-
cause the cheapest) manufacturing cen
ter in the state. Nothing but natural
gas" beats "natural water" and we
ought to do something to make this
water useful to us, increase the business
of the city, and the value Of every acre
of land in this section.
How to do, is quite beyond me, as l am

The house has passed q bill which
they say is intended to mitigate the
internal revenue prosecutions, but the
real object Of the measure is the relief Of
moonshiners and other violators of the
United States internal revenue laws,
who are 80 numerous in the south. The
republican senate will never pass this
this bill.
The Blair educational bill will be vot-
