senate is virtually elected at the
several county conventions early in
the summer. As these members OF
the general assembly will cast votes for
senator in October it will be rather
unusual if the issue does not crop out
i'm their individual canvasses. Voters
NAV desire to know whether a would
be senator is for Dillingham;, Grout,
Ross or Prouty before they commission
him. On the other hand, the candi-
dates for county senator may be wary
about committing themselves, fearing
that they may espouse what later turns
out to be the weaker side, or perhaps
preferring to run their chances of be-
inc elected unpledged. There are
some reasons why it might be well to
keep the main issue out OF the county
contests, if the thing can be done.
Ordinarily, county caucuses in the
several towns are very tame affairs,
lightly attended and easy of manipu-
Iation. The same is true OF the county
convention itself. 1t might easily
happen that a little shrewd work
would commit a county's senators to a
course entirely different from the
actual preference Of the county. On
the other hand, the Freemens meeting
in September is always well attended
and fairly representative, so that the
postponement of the issue until then
might be a fairer way, the senators
agreeing to vote in accordance with
the majority of Republican representa-
.ives from the same county, after the
issue had been fought out on its mer-
its. This is simply a suggestion, but |
here is nothing impractical in it.

Col. r. j. Kimball of Randolph was
never a candidate for delegate to the

with the solicitation of friends, he did
say that ifthe convention selected him
he would accept, but he would do no
work, nor enter any contest for the
place. When Reads name was pro-
posed, for purposes perfectly apparent,
Col. Kimball's directions were needed
and his name was withdrawn.

fell into the Dcsplaines river, aud thence
through the Illinois and Mississippi ris-

Of injunctions and opposition Of various

While Chicago has turned the course OF

CLAIMS AGAINST INDIANS.

Acts of Pure "Cussedness" Cost Uncle
Sam $5,o0O,0O0 Year.
1t costs Uncle Sam nearly $4,000 a
year for acts of pure cussedness commit
ted by Indians against the whitc d
Mexican settlers of the Southwest. This
sum is paid under the Indian depreciation
law, passed by Congress in 1892. Few
people in the East know of this law and
the amount of work it derolves upon the
department of justice. as they have new

Some OF the claims Stretch back fifty
years, when the Indian was wild and free
aad full of natural cussedness. 1t is all
right for Los friends TO say that he is
generally driven TO acts of violence
against the whites, but the fact remains
hard and cold that there have been times
innumerable when he required no extran-
eous provocatioD to start him on the war
path. The nervous construction of the

Some Information in Regard to the
Crop i'm Nebraska.
The officials of the Chicago, Burling-
ton 4 Quincy Railroad have b,rn col
lecting some information concerning the
sugar beet industry in Nebraska. Some
difficulty was encountered early in the
season in securing a sufficient acreage
for the two large factories there But
the final result was an acreage sufficient
to meet cll requirements.
The Weather conditions early in the
season were favorable for planting and
cultivating the beet. 50 that good stand
was secured The crop matured in ex-
celient condition, and is making very
large yield The factories at Grand Isl
and and Norfolk began operations about
Oct. /, and are making a successful run,
with prospect Of a larger sugar output
than in any preceding year The price
paid to the farmer usually is 81 ton,
but the very good quality OF this seasons
crop will secure s. ton. The output
Of the factories in the State this season
is estimated to be about 25,O0O,00O
