The Deliver News says: Theotiier tiny a Denver girl kissed a soldier goodby at the depot with t!ie re mark: *(Jod Mess you; stand up for Colorado.’ Between his sobs he re plied : ‘I am from Nebraska, but I'll try to stand up for both states now.’ Thereupon slm kissed him again for Nebraska. That young man might have reminded her with entire pro priety that there are forty-three other states which he could ‘stand up for. 1 Hand county democrats held a second convention Saturday at the Opera house, and selected another set of delegates to their state con vention. The first ones\yereselected a week before. The cause of division was not fully learned by the reporter, but it is presumably for and against fusion. The first convention was said to be led by R.C. Anderson, while the last one, claimed to be consider ably the largest, was led by J. I’. Morrill and Judge Pusey. It i-< pre sumed the doubleheader from Hand county will contest for seats in the convention at Aberdeen. The Miller correspondent of the St. Lawrence Journal last week attempt ed some strictures upon I). A. Mc- Coy, for the alleged reason that la* was testifying wrong in tie mill rase. The Press believes such criticism was wrong, was unwarranted, and it is informed that the reason therefor could only be a political or personal one. Mr. McCoy is an honorable man, and a republican. He is con sidered all right by his fellow busi n >ss men here, and the person who sought to injure him (we are not sure just who it was) must have done so purely for personal spite. County populists held their con vention in Miller Saturday for the purpose of selecting delegates to their state convention, at Aberdeen. It was a quiet affair, devoid ofen t husiasm. As expected, the radicals declared the war to be a failure. That’s about all our populist friends have to cling to. Their real issue of finance and government lmye all been discredited by actual facts, so that about their stock in trade now is quibbling and faultfinding. Out of about 1 .”.”> delegates to the conven tion, less than half that number at tended. This convention is not pro nounced a success by even the popu lists themselves: As understood by observing politi cians, wlmt is called the Pettigrew faction was defeate 1 by the Kvle faction. State Senator Major repre sented the Pettigrew faction for dele gate at large, and Editor Sweetland represented the Kyle faction. To the surprise of some, Editor Sweet land easily defeated Mr. Major for delegat *at large to Aborde n, not withstanding the energetic work of strong men like Railroad Com. Kirk patrick. This only adds another to the many instances recorded in polit ni history that then* is a limit to all rn >n. No difference how goods man muv be, when he undertakes to con tinually hold on to political favor and position the people call n halt. And so it is that Messrs. Major and Kirkpatrich. both good men, who have so long controlled tic* populist party of Hand county, and enjoyed , the good things, have been turned' down. Perhaps nnotln-i elemental so is the recognition of Editor Sweel - land’s work for his party through his paner. At any rate he is evident !y t he stronger man in his party, and it looks as if tie would be the logical candidate for State Senator on the populist ticket. in >n. —Cleveland Lender. CELEBRATION. The Glorious Fourth Will be Celebrated AT MILLER. .SfleasEs Patriotism, Speaking, Music, and Amusements. Arrangements are bejngcompleted for a grand celebration at Miller on the 4th. Hon. Thos. Sterling, of Redffeld, has been secured as speak er of the day. He is a tine orator and on this grand theme of patrio tism he will please the people. Every citizen of Hand county should hoar him. la the afternoon the usu.\l pro gram of interesting amusements will lie carried out, with liberal purses for all contests, including horse rac ing. bicycle racing, foot racing, base ball. etc. A fine display of fireworks will be given in the evening. Everybody in Hand county should come to Miller and join in this patriotic celebru t i on of independence. City Marshal E. M. Dunn was seen around town Monduy with a gun over his shoulder looking for stray dogs. Two or three were shot be cause they were reported by their owners to be acting queerly. There is no necessity of a nmd dog scare, although many persons are inclined to fear such things in warm weather. Good authorities, however, state that it is not so frequent in a warm climate as it is in a cold one. nor in summer as in winter. For the general good of the com munity the Pit ess considers it neces sary to make a plain suggestion, viz: Owners of female dogs should either kill their animals or carefully to lock them up. This “hydrophobia" business will instantly disappear. The large, fine shade trees around the edge of the court yard, placed there by citizens of Miller, show what could have been done had the entire square been set out properly to the right kind of trees. The beauty of a living green tree on these barren prairies is a retouching of nature that any one ought to appreciate, and wherever it is possible trees should be grown. There is water and hose at the court house, und by this time the county ought to have a nice little shady park around the building. The County Commission , ers did make such an effort once, bv • * < setting out some little ash slivers, may make trees sometime in thedim and distant future, but they will do the | >reseat generation no good. The in.-ide of the court square should he set out with cottonwood trees, the ground sown to blue grass, and then all should Im* carefully attended for a sonson or two until well start ed. This is a small matter, and in nsmu ..*li as the* city of .Miller gave the court house nud grounds to the county, flit* < ounty should lie willing to beautify and preserve its own property.
