Nebraska Politics.

Rather unexpectedly 10 many the
Democrats and Populists have again
fused in Nebraska. In thus coming to-
gether they probably concluded tFat
there was no other feasible course lIn-
der the peculiar conditions which exist
in that state. Prior 70 the break in
party lines about ten years ago Ne
hraska was intensely Republican in
sentiment; perhaps as strongly SO as
Kansas When the Populst uprising
took place in the Mississippi Valley
both of these States were affected alike.
As the Democrats retained their sep
arate Orge nization-iu fact. two argani-
zatiOIs-in Nebraska. il is clear that
tie bulk or the Populist party there
must have been Of Republican antece-
dents With the reaction of the last
two OF three years. many Of these evi-
IDENTITY drifted back To their early p1liti-
cal love. The result was that the
DemOcrat Is and Populists combined
were reduced to a minority. Such be-
ing the case. il is obvious that neither
party alone could make much Of a
showing. ana they have come together
doubtless upon the theory that united
they have a chance, while siugIy each
would be entirely without hope
The Democrats seem 70 have taken
what may be termed the political lead

conceded 90 them, and the reports are
10 the effect that tkr PopuIist cUuven-
lion was decidedly apathetic-a rare
hing, indeed, with such bodies. Both
Democrats and Populists in Nebraska
have been extremists in politics. All
things considered these TWO conyen-
tons acted with a fair degree OF mod

Of the late President
Some Of our Democratic contempora-
ries are inclined 10 critioise the couveu-
ton or that party for its reafIirmauce
II the Kansas city platform. II could
hardly have done differently under the
circumstances. The fact that 1t has
pursued this course is not 10 be taken
as an Indication that the Democracy of

1904 for the free coinage Of silver at the
ratio Of sixteen 10 one. The reafirma-
AA'i4 W az All Efi4Flal terms. ana such ar-
ton is never held 10 have the specific
effect Of committing the party 10 every
provision Of the earlier platform. The
fact Is notorious that the Gold Demo-
Gratis who took part in the Kansas CITY
Convention last year would have been
entirely satisfied with a general en-
dorscment Of the Chicago platform If
1886. What they objected To was the
direct reference 10 the free coinage Of
silver The platform Of the Nebraska
Democrats on this point would have
been acceptable 10 the whole New York
delegation At Kansas City.
In view Of all the circumstances there
Is very little ground FOR just criticism
Of this feature Of the Nebraska Demo
cratic platform. The omission Of speci-
fc mention of the silver issue makes
IL sufficiently clear that the Democracy
Of Nebraska is disposed 10 keep in

Man Residing Out on Anaconda Road
Complains to Police.
Steve Christian, an italian living on
Anaconda road, appeared at the police
station yesterday afternoon with a face
that greatly resembled a roll Of Ham
burger steak.
Christian held in his hand big, heavy,
chisel, and his sudden appearance with
this weapon, covered with blood from
his wounds, startled the policemen about
the jailer's Office.

ulated Officer Young, as he sprang from
his chair and took position of defense
against what appeared to be mad man.

convey the information that Mrs Chris

started to run amuck in the Christian
home and neighborhood. l-,s .,.-.4
Mrs. Christian is small woman, but
when the husband was asked why ne
did not strike her, he claimed re did
not want to hurt her.
Christian wanted his wife arrested,

! best to have the case go before the coun-

was directed to the courthouse, which
he evidently failed to reach.
| Mrs. Christian was in police court
| Tuesday afternoon as one Of the prin-
cipals in a neighborhood row, and hel
quiet and modest appearance made such
an impression on the court that she was
dismissed on the charge brought against
| her of assault and battery, and her an
tagonist was fined as the really guilty
| one.
Mrs Christians escapade yesterday
| was a revelation to the police court at
taches, who thought they had encoun'
tered much abused and maligned wife
and mother.

BILL BOARD WAR ENDED.
| Trouble Between Thomas Lawson and
G. A. Harnois Settled in Court.

Thomas Lawson was tried before a
jury in Justice Nelson's court yesterday
on charge Of petit larceny, the theft
of bill boards belonging to the Montana

him.
c. A. Harnois was the complainant
He and Lawson are rivals in the bill
posting business. When the boards
were missed a search of the premises
over which Lawson had control resulted
in the discovery of 80 Of them.
On the strength of the find Lawson
was arrested. No one had seen him take
the boards and no one had seen him
place them where they were found; So
the jury told him to fade.

ed guilty to charge of having "bor-
rowed' $3.50 worth of hay from the
ranch Of Thomas O. Miles. In the Dee,

Though there was a small audience

A Fight
With Six.Shooters.

FRANKLIN, Tex, May IA terrible
tragedy occurred at the Lake picnic
grounds late yesterday evening after all
the trains had left. A Mr.. Hardin of
Leon county became involved in diff
Guilty with Mr.. Nat Holton of this place
and desperate fight ensued at short
range with six.shooters. Hardin was
shot twice through the body and Holton
was shot through the body, the ball, a
large 45-caliber, passing through both
lungs and making its exit on the other
side. After the men were both shot
they erappled and used their weapons as
clubs. Holton's face is bruised and Har-
din's head was badly beaten. Hardin
was taken to Palestine. He is fatally
injured and was reported dying this
morning. Mr.. Holton was brought to
his home here last night in a buggy and
the best medical skill was summoned,
but there is no hope of his recovery.
He is still alive, but cannot survive long.
Mr.. Holton had lemonade stand on
the picnic grounds. Mr.. Hardin is
son of Black Hardin, who was a very
prominent figure in Leon county for
many years. Holton has wife and six
small children. He belongs to a pro-
minent family in this county.
