The friends Of Tom Reed are
setting him up as the residuary
legatee Of James G.. Blaine. It is
doubtful, however, whether the re-
publican party will be disposed to
recognize and concede that claim.
Reed has some elements of power
and strength which Blaine did moi
possess, and he reveals certain for.
chile qualities which are destined
TO make him a conspicuous figure
in American politics. But in those
attributes which inspire enthusi-
asm and enkindle affectionate adj
miration he falls far behind Blaine,
and can never hope to fill the place
of that brilliant and picturesque
figure in our national history.

The national encampment of the
Grand Army at Indianapolis, this
year, cannot but feel the effects of
the recent financial troubles, as al
SO Of the counter attraction in the
Worlds fair in Chicago. As a
consequence, the next annual re-
union will assume much greater
Importance than would otherwise
be the case It is all the more to
be regretted that Lincoln has
pulled out Of the race for the en-
campment of 1894, but this must
be charged to the railroad, which
refused to cooperate with the
Lincoln committee.

G. S. Ferris has returned from
his overland trip to Hastings. He
thinks parts Of Red Willow county
will hold her own with any other

to the fact Of their getting early
rains that did not materialize in
