to become a candidate.

The at -one-time- heard of boom of one
j. c. F. McKesson for auditor received
an upper cut in the last county conven-
ton, where the versatile" senator was
a candidate for chairman. 1t is to be
hoped that he will be too "Groggy" to
respond to the call when the next state
convention meets. BY the way, were
there not two candidates for auditor
before the county convention for chair
MANI Quien Sabe.
Senator Allen said, in the late pop
state convention, that the few battles in
which he had engaged in the last two
years in Washington were mere
skrimishes. and that he would show
people what battle really was before
he got through. If this is SO police pro
lection will command a premium and
senatorial secretaries ought to travel in
companies.
The nomination OF Samuel Maxwell
was not a surprise to anyone. A more
cut and dried convention has not been
held in Lincoln for years. The only
surprising thing is that the convention
could not prevail upon some populist,
who stood on the Omaha platform to
sacrifice himself, instead Of leading out
to the slaughter a weak old man.
There will be pretty race between
Billy Bry ans party and the administra-
ton to see which represents the demo
cratic party in Nebraska. Billy re-
ceived good deal Of roasting at the
late pop gathering, but it seemed to be
as per stipulation and was more in the
shape of an advertisement than other
WISE The evidence of the Allen Bryan
deal becomes more apparent every day.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one DREADED disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatement. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation of the disea
Sc, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work.

its curative powers, that they offer

NOTES AND COMMENT

We have been asked to give the names
of Plattsmouth people who moved to
Lincoln in the early days. This inquiry
opens up an interesting field. We hope
to be able to give adequate consider
alton TO this subject next week.
The same correspondent suggests
that an account be given of the Nebras-
ka City and Brownville people in Lin
coin. 1t is our purpose to act on this
suggestion in the immediate future.

POINTS In POLITICS


Sam L. Low, republican candidate for
clerk of the district court. returned from
Colorado Saturday. He spent two or
three weeks in Manitou and Colorado
Springs, and came back ready to take
up the active work OF canvassing for
election. There was a remarkable
demonstration of Mr.. Lows popularity
at the nominating convention, and the
same qualities that secured his nomi-
nation by reclamation are depended
upon TO bring about his triumphant
election. Mr.. Lows opponent, Mr..
Baker is, as have often taken pleasure
in stating, an able, honorable gentle
man. and his administration has been
generally satisfactory, and it is not the
intention to say anything in these col
umns derogatory of him. But Mr..
Low is a republican and the republican
party has majority OF the votes in this
county. 1t would be the natural thing
for Mr.. Low to get from 600 TO 1900
more votes than Mr.. Baker, and l can
not SET how the result can be figured
otherwise. If there is any member of
the party in this county whose repub-
licanism is above suspicion Mr.. Low is
that man. sSnrely every loyal republican
will take pleasure in voting for and
helping to elect man who for eight
years has rendered effective and bril-
liant service to the cause of republican
success. And this candidates known
integrity and ability and manliness are
likely to draw some strength from the
opposition. Mr.. Low enters the cam
paign with the determination to poll
the full republican vote, and as
he surprised the public by his running
qualities at the primary election and at
the convention, it is quite possible that
election day will bring another and
similar surprise
The selection OF Paul F. Clark as
chairman of the county central COM
mittee means an energetic campaign to
be made by the young men. Their
success in the convention will be eX-
celled by their success in the campaign,
only in the ratio of the one body of
voters is TO the other.
The outcome of the next republican
state convention is so assured that plans
for the convention of 1896 are already
being made Candidates for governor
and other offices are cropping out and
even few combinations are talked of.
Lancaster county will not be behind
the others in her list of candidates and
even now The COURIER knows of any
of men who are willing to
sacrifice home comforts for the good of
the state.
4 mentioned last week the candidacy
Of G. III. Morrill, for governor. There is
quite movement on foot to press Mr..
Morrill, to the front. 1t is being
engineered by some of the same men
who were behind the Tom Majors boom
last year. Mr. Morrill, is a man how
ever, who has a strong individuality and
will rise above combines il he decides
