vl THE STATE PRORIBITIONISTS, They Will Hold Their Gonvention at Lin- ooln To-morrow, THE SALE OF LOTS AT KEARNEY, An Ilmmenso Crowd Promised at the Ball Game To-day—Farragut Post to Bend Delegates to Bt. Louis, [FROM TIIE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU. | On Tuesday of this week the prohibi- tionists, or rather the believers in pro- hition who believe in St. John and a little party all by themselves, hold their state convention. The present year does not promise to attract much attention in political fields, especially in Nebraska, but the prohibs propose to hold a conven- tion and resolve, at least. The new party deals extensively in resolutions, and they come cheap and can bo clected by the convention that places candidates in the field who never hope for victory. The calling of a state convention, even if 1tis un off year, will undoubtedly greatly as- sist 1 muin'aining the organization and keep it alive for destructive work in the national camveaign, Locally, a conven- tion of prolibitionists was very much de- gired, for there are alarge number in Lincoln who for several {m\rs have been Joud prohibitionists i public places, who Inst spring smuggled themselves into the democratic camp and stood side by side with a majority of the saloons 1n the city in electing Mr. Sawyer mayor of the city. These prohibs are anxious to got back into the straight and nurrow way again. To be sure in their action in helpingelect a contracted democrat mayor, they were largely following the precedent estab- lished” by St. John and a party by the name of Finch, but the fact that the pres- ent reform democratic administration is a_bold pretense of reform run for the glory of Sawyer, 18 80 apparent that any prohibitionist who has respect for the principles he professes, feels the neces- sity of getting out of the sham camp back into the old liney again. For these rea- sons the convention of the prohibitionists yromises to be largely attended and to reveal much of the vigor and enthusiasm that Lincoln prohibs exhibited before they were sacrificed and searrified upon the altar of a false god. Judging from reports received the state convention that convenes Tuesday will be largely at- tended from over the state as well as from the home contingent. It will be held at Temple hall and party leaders in the city fear that the hall will not aceom- modate the delegates. Some of the pro- fessed prohibitionists who entered the Sawyer camp last spring, will speak ~at this convention aud with ashes on their brows will receive forgiveness. he county convention of the prohi- bitionists in this county was held two days ago and at this convention the fol- lowing named delegates were elected to Tepresent the county in the state conven- tion: H. W. Hardy, Joseph Southwick, H. C. Bittenbender, A. J. Cropsy, A. N.” Wyc- ‘1’,“ Geo. B. Skinner, A. G{Wolfenberger. A. Roberts, L. C. Pac 3 . Londen, T. Jenkins, Fred A. J. A. Rollins, W, U. Hnrtle‘y, 8. gz, Geo. W. Hedrick, Geo. E, Bigelow, Rev. Kuhlman, Mrs, D. G. King, Mrs. Belle G, Bigelow, Rev. C. Creighton, Rev. E. H. Chapin, W H. Prescott, Rev. A. J. Colyert, M. L. Tres- ter, 8. W. Hillman, Louis Helmer, Ports Wilson, A. 8. Hazleton, ¥. W. Scott, W. E. Bowers, Robert McCartney and C. C. Beach. At this county convention that solected thess delegates the party also placed in nomination a complete county ticket for the suffrages of the people at the polls 1n November. This ticket is made up of excellent citizens and the leaders of the party predict will receive a very handsome vote. The ucliel is: For = commissioner, O. 8. Hazle- ton, of Panam! for treas- urer, Louis Helms of for clerk, 8. C. Londen, of North Blufls; for recorder of deeds, J. J. Setler, of Centerville; for sheriff, N. E. Melick, of Rock Creek; for county judge, J. A. Rol- lins, of Lincoln; for coroner, Dr. Polk, of Raymond; for surveyor, N. 8. Scott, of Lincoln; for clerk of the district oourt, M. Mumphrey, of Nemaha; for county superintendent, Mrs. Belle G. Bigelow, of Lincoln. It will bo observed that the ticket is very generously distributed nmong the couaty precincts, which will undoubtedly add 1ts numerical strength. The county eentral committee organized with Louis Helmer, chairman; 1. C. Bitten- bender, secretary, and L, C. Humphrey, s treasurer. RETURN FROM THE SALE. Colonel Hyde, of the Lincoln News, Cad C, Pace, auctioneer, and other Lin- coln citizens who attended the lot sale at Krey last week, are at home again andl etnto that the sale was a great suc- cess in eyery particular. The generous manner in which the sale was advertised had its good effect as the purchasers who were Inrguli' men of means from outside the city. Mr. T. E. Huff, of Haff & Perry, hardware dealers at Oakland, Ia , saw the advertisement of the sale in the Bee, visited Kearney and was one of the heavy investors from among away from home parties. TO-DAY'S GAME. “There is no doubt but that to-day's game of ball between the home club and the Topekan will be the largest attended exhibition of the national game in the history of the state. The past two games have gone a long way toward a suspen- sion of business in the city during the of the game and a proclamation compelling business to cease need not be wondered at. The Journal this morning hoists the names of the successtul battery Saturday, Swartzel and Hoover, as the roper ticket for 1888, A large number m over the state have deferred a visit to the games until to-day and the audi- ence witl undoubtedly be a magnificent one, BRIEF ITEMS, Farragut post, at its meeting Suturday ovening, discussed the proposed trip to St. Louis at the time of the national re- union and it 18 probable that a delegation of twenty-five or thirty from this post will attend the great gathering. Mrs. Sophia Keeup, an insane woman, will be exnmined at the distriol court room this morning to allow of her admis- sion to the asylum. If the rumors of her bad treatment at the hands of relatives aro investigated some interesting devels opments may be made, The People's theater, which has been el the past three months, will be opened for the season, commencing this evening, the Hyers colored comedy being tho attraction, and their dates cover the cntire week. Mossrs. Pace & Rhodes, the auctioneers, have the erying of a ot saleat Sut: ton on the 17th. The 18th they conduct a sale at Lake City, lowa. On the 25th thoy have the lot sale of George W.

It is no longer a question of doubt— although the contrary was once believed —that medicines which produce violent effects are unsuited to other than desper- ate emergencies. In other words, that super-potent remedies are ealculated to weunken and injure the system rather than reform its' irregularitics. _Among medicines of a debilitating effect are cathartics and cholagogues which copi- ously and abruptly evacuate the bowels, Because it does not do this, Hostetters' Stomach Bitters are preferable to the drenching class of pergatives. Painless in its effects, it is sufficiently active to remedy chronic constipation. It re- lieves by invigorating the intestines, and enables, not forces, them to peform the duty imposed upon them by nature. Pro- moting the secretion of bile in normal quantities by its healthfully stimulating effect upon the liver, 1t is éminently con- ducive to digestion, and contributes in no small degree to keep the bowels reg- ular. i i i THE WEALTH OF THE NATION Amount of Cotn in the United State Treasury, Chicago News: Few persons, perhaps, who read the frequently published reports of the fiseal operations of the government give any cousideration to the vastness and significance of these operations. We rend of the hundreds of millions of gold in the treasury,but how few persons have any intelligent idea of what is embraced in the nine figures required to describe the liabilities and assotts of the govern- ment? 1t is only when the auriferous contents of the treasury vaults are weighed and measured and placed by the side of articles and commodities that are daily handled by the masses that an in- mlufiem comprehension can be obtained by the people of the financial strength of the treasury and the great extent of the government's fiscal operations. _Lfind by reference to the latest pub- lished staiement of treasury assetts and liabilities that among the asse was $281,008,417 in-gold and nearly $250,000,- 000 1n silverncluding $34,000,000 of trade dollars and fractional coin. Taking up this $281,000,000 of gold and placing 1t on the scales, I find that the gold held by the treasury weighed 519 tons, and if packed into ordinary carts, one ton to each cart, it would make a procession two miles long, allowing twenty feet of space for the movement of each horse and cart. The weighing of the silver produces much more interesting results. Running this over the scales I find 1ts weight to be 7,306 tons. Measuring it in carts, asin the case of the gold, the silver now held by the treasury would require the services of 7,398 horses and carts to transport it snd would make a procession over twenty- one miles in length. The surplus about which so much is said in the daily newspaners amounts to nearly 47,000,000, an increase of $5,000,- 000 since July 1. Counted as gold thi surplus would weigh 86} tons. Counted as silver it would weigh 1,385 tons, Each million of gold‘adds 3,685 pounds to the surplus, and each million of sil- ver adds 58,980 pounds, Applying cubic measurement to the treasury gold and silver and piling the two metals on Pennsylvania avenue as cord-wood is piled before delivery to the purchaser, I find that the gold would measure thirty-seven cords and the silver 400 cords, and that both would extend from the treasury to Four and One-half street,or from the treasury to the pension office in & straight line, and forming a solid wall 8 feet high ana 4 feet broad. Extending these calculations and com- putations to the interest-bearing debt, equally interesting results are obtained. e public debt reached the highest point in August, 1865—just twentv-two enrs ago—when it was $3,381,530,295. 'he general reader will better appre- ciato the vastness of this sum when in- formed that 1t represents 70,158 tons of silver, which would make a procession of carts that would reach from Richmond, Va., toa point twelve miles north of Philadelphia, the distance it would thus cover being 260 miles. ‘The interest bearing debt is now (not including the Pacific railroad bonds) $1,001,076,850, showing that the sum paid has been $1,379,553,445, or more than one half of the total amount and represent- ing 46,637 tons of silver dollars, which would extend 154 miles if packed in carts containing one ton each. Keducihg these figures to abasis where l.lu-f may be ntelligently comprehended, and that the rapidity with which the gov- ernment has reduced its bonded debt may be fully realized by the general reader, 1 find that the reduction has been at the wverage rate of $02,706,085 each year, $5,225,581 each month, $174,186 each day, $7,358 each hour, and - $120.47 for overy minuto of the entire twenty-two 0TS, yl’uuuh the calculation to the small- est divisible space of time, the bonded debt of the United States has been de- creased at the rate of $2.00.7 for every second, or for every “":5 of the pendu- lum, for the entire g';l from August 81, 1865 to July 81, 1887, "This is an exhibition” of recuperation and material progress on the part of the country and of sterling honesty and in- tegnty on the part of the government and ptnyln that is without parallel in the world's history. - Delicate disenscs of either sex, how ever induced, promnptly, thoroughly and permanently cured. d 10 cents in stamps for Iarge illustrated treatise, sug- esting surc means of cure.

You blow your nose until your ears crack, but it don’t do uny good, and the only result toat you succecd in getting up a very rod nose, and you so irritate the lining membraue of that or- &an that you arc unablo to breatho through it utall. This is a correct and not overdrawn picture of an wcute attack of catarrh, or “Sncezing Caturriy'” as it is called. Now, what does this condition indicate? First, & cold that causes mucus to be poured outby tho glands in the noso: then thosoe dis- oased glands are attacked by swurms of littlo gorms—the catarth germ—that floats fn the air ina locality whore the disense is prevalent. 80 snimaiculae, in their eiforts to find a lod¢ment, irritate the sensitive membrane lin- the hose, and nature undertakos to rid hersell of them by producing a fit of sncezing. When the nose becomes fillod with thickenod and disensed mucus the natural channels for the introduction of air into the lungs is inter- fered with, and_the person so ollected must Eroathe through the mouth,and by such means the throat becomes lmruned and dry, snoring is produced, and then the catarrhal disenso guins ready access to the throat and lungs, PALPABLE SIGNS.
