WHITMAN, Neb., Jnne l6.-[Speclal to TIE
BEE. MANY people, both young and old,
seem to be taking Mr.. Greeley's advice and
are coming west to 'grow up with the coun-
try" 1t has been only two short months
since Governor Thayer furnished this great
county with a temporary organization, since
which time settlers are coming thicker and
more of them.
The season out here has been wet; upon
the whole, much moro so than has been
known for many years. OF course this gives
promise of big grass for moving purposes.
People generally have planted large gardens,
. and the acreage Of corn planted surpasses
former years more than one-half. The spring
being so favorable the people have planted
and set out trees largely. This part of the
state seems to be the hunters paradise, for
indeed game is plentiful, especially antelope,
deer, ducks and grouse.
Politics III this county are quiet indeed. In
fact, the population is largely republican,
there being many old soldiers among the
ranchmen.
Upon the county officers to be elected the
lines will not be closely drawn at tho first
election.

Another Mile.Post.

THE BEE has reached its seventeenth
mile-post. Though its editor and foun-
der is absent from the city on a thrice
earned vacation, THE BEE celebrates
the seventeenth year OF its existence,
and rejoices that it has accomplished so
much. 1t has steadily and swiftly
grown to dimensions which entitle it
to the first place in western journalism.
TIE BEE has always been a news
paper. Not only the mere gatherer
and dissemination of news, but the fact
that its editor is possessed of a rare
moral courage and a supreme individu-
ality with which he has ever grappled
fearessly with every living issue, has
largely been the cause OF the papers
wonderful success.
THE BEE is recognized by the rank
and file of the republican party in
the west as the exponent OF
its principles. Not clinging to the
antiquated prejudices and customs of
two decades ago, THE BEE has at times
arisen, in its desire to render service to
honest men, above mere politics and

use the great historic party for their
shield.
When Legislators and other public
officers agreed to be, not the representa-
tives of the popular will, but the mere
puppets of band Of corporate cor
morants, with their hired mercenaries.
who sought TO shape legislation against
the people, THE BEE has never for
gotten its duty to the toiling masses.
1t will always oppose the parasitic
growth of any party.
AS medium of news it is not excelled
in any state, and has no peer between
Chicago and San Francisco. Its clrcu-
lation is increasing, and has reached
almost twenty thousand day.
The early part of the seventeen years
OF THE BEES existence was struggle
between life and death. 1t was success
full. And to-day, strong, vigorous and
victorious, it leads the van, increasing
in popularity and excellence,

The Colorado Republican Delegates
Stop Over at Chicago,

The Colorado delegates to tho republican
national convention passed through this city
yesterday. They arrived over the b. & M.
in special train of ton cars drawn by en-
gines 105 and 1l0. The coaches were Pulls
mans with the following names: Pasadena,
Delmar, Wahsatch, Clay, Sarnia, Utah,
Midland and special officers car Of the Il.
& M. road. The Sarnia was put on at Hast
ings for the accommodation of people from
that city, among whom were j. w. Wigton
and Fred Royce, Of the Gazette Journal.
The delegates and alternates occupied the
Midland and the official car. On either side
of the former was streamer bearing the
words, the Colorado delegation" with
,,,Is representat0n .nS niao! of the state seal
bore the legend painted 'Onical train 1885,"
The delegates are as follows: Henry
Walcott, Denver, chairman of the delega-
ton; General w. A. Hamill, also represen-
Irwin Howvert, formerly treasurer of the
Midland Railway company; @. M. Donnel-
son, merchant, Leadville; J. M. Henderson.
banker, Sterling; w. Il. Wingate, Silver
Cliff. The alternates were A. f. Safely,
formerly postmaster, Boulder; George Gra-
ham, furniture, Denver; II. G. Olney, of the
Revew-Press, Gunnison: George f. Drake
Pueblo; Henry Kellogg, Bunt, and g. E.
Mcconnell Montrose.
Each of these was attired in liner custer
with white tall hat and wore a blue silk
badge on his brea-t. Tinctal on the badge
was rather elaborately wrought The pin
Yves fastened to silver bar, on which was
the word Colorado" Pendant was silver
dollar, with the liberty head visible and tho
reverse hollow, so as to tighten the orna-
ment. From this depended golden fac
simle of the tools used in mining pick,
shovel, hammer and rope, while still lowe
hung small gold bucket filled with golden
nuggets.
The sentiment of the delegation, as we'll as
it could be understood without having held
meeting to agree upon the same, was that IL
Blaine were in the field he would be Colo
RADIOS favorite. They had no special one to
look after. They wanted to help to win the
campaign, and would be satisfied with
anybody except Gresham. They were
afraid of his silence ON the subject Of protec-
ton.
Besides those whose names are mentined
there were the following prominent Colo
radians: w. g. Wheeler, under sheriff, of
Arapahoe; w. A. Smith, ex-chief of police;
Colonel Customs, ex-alderman; Watkins,
Alderman Root, Daniel p. Klngly, auditor of
state; Hon. Melvin Edwards, ex-sccretary Of
state Eugene Wilder, clerk of the county,
and Colonel II. f. Thomas.
The train pulled out fifteen minutes after
the first section, which had five sleepers
with every berth full, and three day coaches
packed.

THE STATES STATES MEN.

Judge Parker OF Lincoln is running in the
dark for land commissioner.
is Dew, candidate for land commissioner,
is circulating throughout the state looking
after his fences.
Boss Bostwick Of Adams county would
barter his hope of heaven for seat in the
Nebraska senate
Jim North will not be a candidate for gov
ernor on the democratic ticket. His cup of
glory was filed at st, Louis.
1t is unnecessary to state in this connec-
ton that very large portion of Nebraska's
statesmen are this week doing Chicago.
Tom Darnell, the Greedy county statesman,
is out of the fight for attorney general. And
thus another of Ed earns pet schemes dis
solves.
The Culbertson Sun denies in double leads
that William Brown is candidate for the
state senate. William, however will run for
the legislature.
Thomas Benton, candidate for state audi
tor, watches the papers to see if any political
incubator will bring forth more candidates
for the position he longs to fill.
1t is generally conceded that Governor
Thayer, Secretary of State Laws and Prof
Lane. superintendent of public instruction,
will be given second term without opposi-
tion in the republican state convention.
II. w. Scott of York county will attempt
to inherit the throne of Attorney General
Leese. The people, however, will rally
round the present incumbent in style and
manner that will make all opposition very
sick at heart.
Judge Sam Chapman, officially and ener-
geticalIy denies that he is a candidate for
congress. In the language of favorto
poet, the Judge maintains that in these days
of doubtful majorities, it is even better TO be
district 'jeedge" than TO be king.
1t is told in mournful numbers that Ben
Cowdry, deputy secretary of state, is not Il
candidate for state treasurer. Captain Hill
and Charles Carter, however, still hug the
fond delusion of stepping into the official
shoes of Charley Willard, with a grip even
tighter than death.

THE unusual popularity OF Mrs.
Cleveland and the ease with which she
is able TO make strong political friends
for her husband have often been com
mented upon. But she is not the first
woman who has had influence in win
ming ersupport which could have been
obtained in no other way. Apropos Of
the recent presence OF General Fremont
in this city, it may be well to recall that
Mrs. Fremont in her day had just such
qualifications. The following quaint
. letter of Horace Greeley, dated October
16, 1855, prior to the presidential can
vass of 1856 when Fremont and Dayton
became the presidential nominees OF
the republican party will be relished
just at this time.
FRIEND Il: / could go Fremont pretty
easily, for l rather like his wife and | am
going in for q president next time whose
wife Il think will ask me up to the white
house to take cup of tea. Politicians never
treat me well; women generally do. am
going for man next time whose wife l can
esteem, and Mrs. Anna Benton Fremont Il
have only seen her once) seems to be a
proper person to preside at the white house.
But can only help elect; never was worth
anything at securing a nomination. l am
afraid Fremont is against us on free soil,
but think could trust Mrs. Fremont. -

A w ise Leader.

Philadelphia Record.
In all public utterances of Mr.. Parnell
there may be found evidence of a patient and
judicial mind, content to build up slowly and
by constitutional means, yet ready to take
legitimate advantage of every move of his
opponents and even indirectly aid their ad-
vancement, confident that, instead of dis
tracing attention from the great question,
such course will simply result in bringing
it more prominently before the people. In
stead of favorng policy of obstruction, he
counseled his party to do everything toward
facilitating English business in parliament,
especially the local government bill, knowing
the diverse character of the interests that
would oppose it; and the result was that
while at the beginning of the session the
government could command n majority Of
120, on the first division on the bill in ques-
tion that majority was reduced to 49,
