IN NEBRASKA.

Nebraska has, since the date Of its adj
mission into the Union, been Republic
can without a lucid interval" and IT
is interesting to learn from the report
Of the proceedings of the Nebraska Re
publican State Convention yesterday
just what RepubliCanism means nova
days and what fruits II brings forth.
The work to be done by the convention
WAS the nomination OF Tom Majors for
Governor. and after a prayer by the
Rev. DR.. Brooker the convention pro-
cceded at once to force this nomination
by cheap parliamentary trick un-
worthy of any self-respecting body.
This was followed by the resignation
OF Editor Rosewater, of the Omaha Bee,
from the Republican National Commit
tee. his reasons for doing so being given
TO the convention in a letter. portion
OF which is as follows:
"You have nominated n man for
Governor who has been branded AZ
an accessory to forgery and perjury
by Republican Congressional Com
mNtee; a man who has con
sorted with boodlers and jobbers, and
converted the room OF the Lieu
or the Capitol OF state
into a den for debauches; man who
has been the plant tool of railroads In
season and out OF season, and whose
nomination was procured by the com
bined influence of corporate cappers,
bride givers. jury fixers
and impeached State House officials"
Mr.. Rosewater's resignation was
accepted. and Corporation At
torney John NJ. Thurston. the General
Solicitor of the Union Pacific Railroad.
was elected to fill the vacancy.
Nebraska was once the cradle OF the
Republican party. 1t has been faithful
to the party through all its growth and
life, and II now seems ready to do Its
share towards preparing the grand old
party for the grave.

HOLMAN.

The Fourth Indiana District has earned
the thanks OF the country by renomi-
mating for Congress the Hon. w. s. Hol-
man, the watchdog of the Treasury.
II his zeal for economy goes too far. as
1t sometimes does, that is a fault which
can be easily pardoned. There is little
danger OF its becoming contagious or
OF It's spreading to such an extent as to
impair the efficiency Of the Government.
In case there should be too many Hol-
mans in Congress, or too much Holman
ism IN the appropriation bills, we can
always depend on the subsidy grabbing
instinct of the lobby on the vested in
terests OF protectionlsm, and on the
alliance between trusts and legislation
to check the excuses of thrift and fru-
galty But just at present there is lit
tie danger from this direction. and what
is wanted now is rather little more
Holman and n little less Sugar In sbap-
ing our National legislation.

Eve Wa. Adams Second wife.

To the Editor:
The following extracts may interest those Of your
readers who are anxious to know where Cain got
his wife. Liit. The Hebrews make use OF this
word to signify spectre or ghost, which takes
away or kills young children in the night time.
for which reason. as any Hebrew woman
Is brought to bed they place little bits OF paDsr
at the four corners of the room. where the woman
lies in, with these words writ upon them: Adam
and Eve Lii: get thee gone with the names OF
three angels, and this they do to secure the child
from all manner Of sorcery or enchantment. This
Llit. according to the Hebrew stores was the
FIRST wife Of Adam. who. refusing to be obedient
to him, did ny away into the air by virtue OF
pronouncing the great name OF God" tSee Bux-

tial devils" As everybody knows that there has
been more devils than saints in the world since
Adams time. there may be some truth In 1t, and
Cain may very likely have got one Ut more Of
Lifts daughters to wife. and been the source OF
SO many devils on earth to the present time.
