Kearney Pross, In Buffalo county last Tuesday was what it should have been and what we predioted it would be. The republi- can senatorial and state conventions rofused admission to the genuine fairly elocted republican delegates, and admittted the howlers and whip- pers-in of Valentine and More without oven a shadow of justice, and then numglod to whip in, by means of the party lash, every republican voter to their support. The result was & red- hot rebellion, The better, truer and nobler element of the party in the county joined the Alliance and Anti. Monopoly Lesgue movement, and ut in the field tor senator Gen. A. H, onnor; for representatives, H. H. Havens and Abraham BStedwell, and for commiasioner, D, B. Jones. They elooted all of them by majorities rang- ing from 100 to 500. Mr, F. G, Hamer notified the state convention at Omaha that the result would be what it is, If justice was not done the delegates who were honestly eleoted to represent Buffalo county there, and was hooted at and derided. The result is three auti-monopoly legis- Iators from thir county, & ocommis- sioner, a majority for M. K. Tarner and for the entire anti-monopoly state ticket, and Valentine's defeat for con- gress, and the election of a demoorat in his stead. All oyposers of Valen. tine wore read out f che party by The Omaha Republican, whose editor olaimed that Val would have 10,000 majority without the aid of “‘kickers,” This reeult means that *'bossism” is dead in Nebraska. It means that legis- lation on the trausportation question is demanded and will be had, It means that neither the B. & M. or U P, road cau longer dictate to the state. But it does not mean that the republicans of the state have joined the emocratic party, and prefer it to the republican. o 4 A Nows 0. M. Holoohy o Bloter: .

The way it looks now, he won’} have to by all the pork in the county. Last Fri evening one of the West Point bands serenaded ‘‘Our Val,” and every one had a good time. OYSTERS ?

Hoston Transcript. The status of the California South- ern railroad property, in which sub. Strange, for our Val had at | jg soribers have already invested $3,033,- 000, has been quite uncertain the Huntington Gould combini appeared in the Atlantic and Pacific. The Southern Pacific people have de- clared tnat they would yet buy the Oalifornia Southern railroad for the coat of the rails, and have made every effort to arrest its progress. The road has recently been completed from 8an Diego to Colton on the Southern Pacifio, and here, instead of finding the businees co-operation promised if the road wounld connect with the SBouthern Pacific at this place, i found all Southern Pacific promises broken, and the greatest opposition to prevont its getting any business. Not only could no arrangements for an interchange of business be effected, but the California railroad monopoly was found to be in_control of the San Diego steamship line, so that the business of the California Southern was controlled at both its eods by adverse interests, But the Qalifornia monopolists have mistaken tho character of the backers of the Oalifornia Southern schemes, Their private fortunes represent more than ten times the totcl investment in this enterprise, The immediate future promises the first lively combat in which the Southern Pacific syndicate has ever been engaged, all previous opposition to its control of the California coast having been squelched or bought up. That the Boston capitalists means business will appearshortly. If there no business at Colton, there is everywhere, and the California Southern road is going for it. One of the largest cities in southern Oali- fornia is San Bernardino, and the California Southern has ordered its oonstruction forces to build to that point, and in & few weeks will call for a subscription of half a million dollars to back it up. At the same time President Nicholson is organizing a company to operate a line of steam. boats from San Diego to San Fran- oisco. This contest between Boston and San Francisco capital will be watched with interest by many more than those financially concerned. It is & contest in which all California has a lively interest, for the result may be the establishment of an opposition railroad system in that state, —_— PERSONALITIES, Cadet Whittaker was one of the men who voted ear-ly on Tuesday, Arabi Bey is said to contemplate sui- cide. ~Arabi, it will be remembered, has four wives, The wife of President Gonzales, of Mex- ico, is studying medicine and surgery in Chicago.
