PLATTSMOUTH, Neb., Sept. 18.—(Special.) —Justice Archar’s court has been the scene of a lively litigation since 11 o'clock this morning. It is the case of the state against W. M. Belleville, who s charged with cut- ting timber on the disputed land north of the water works pump house. The ‘land s claimed by a man named Dinsmore. Belle- ville and his family, consisting of a wife and seven children, came here from Yanktom, S. D., last June, and he heard at Glenwood, Ia., that there was a pleco of land over here that could be had for the taking. He came over at once and “‘squatted” on the land, and here is where the trouble hinges. Dinsmore arrived some two weeks later and said that he had bought the land from A. B. Smith. Belleville asked to be shown the deed to the land, but Dinsmore was evidently unable to furnish that important document, so Belle- ville stayed. He has been living in a tent since then until a couple of weeks ago, when he concluded to erect a cabin. On the land there are a number of old stumps, from which have sprouted a number of small trees, Tanging in size from six fnches to a foot in diameter. These Bellevills cut and used to bulld his cabin. Dinsmore then filed a complaint against him, charging him with cutting trees on his premises, and so matters stand. The case is being tried be- fore a jury of six and a long list of witnesses bave been summoned. Thirteen witnesses have already been on the stand, besides a number of records and plats from the court house being introduced. Three consecutive days of extreme heat has caused the corn to dry almost entirely out of reach of frost. The mercury registered 102 in the shade yesterday and 100 today. Carl Kuntzman, a stock buyer here, morning, while rMing a horse at pace, was thrown. He recelved a broken shoulder blade and sprained back, besides a badly bruised side.

It is not the province of the secr of state to determine which of two riv state conventions of the sume party i3 en- titled to recognition as the regular conven- tion. 5. When two factions of a political party nominate candidates and certify such nomi- nations to the secretary of state in due form of law, the latter will not inquire into the regularity of the convention held by either faction, but will certify to the several county clerks the names of the | candidates nominated by each, such practice being In harmony with the fule which re- quires courts, in case of doubt, to adopt that construction which affords the citizen the greater liberty in casting his ballot As the matter now stands it looks as if the sminees of the Lincoln convention would go he tickets labeled as democrats. In this t it would seem that some other desi tlon must be applied to the nominees of the | free silver gathering at Omaha. > £l evue Coliege Opening. Neb., S:pt. 18.—(Special.)— college opened today.

YORK, Neb. Sept. 18.—(Special)—The action of the republican convention at David City Monday In nominating Judges Sedgwick and Kelloge as judges for the Fifth judicial | district was no surprise to the republicans | throughout the county. Judge Sedgwick has been a resident and lawyer of York county | for the past seventesn years. It ‘s tuought | that, owing to his standing as a lawyer, he will secure many non-partisan votes. Ifour years ago this fall Judge Sedgwick was nom- inated by the republicans as a candidate for the same office for which he Is now nom- inated. At that time the populists were at their strongest, and the year before York county for the first time in its history, or since, went otherwise than republican. Judge Sedgwlck in a hard race was defeated for the officé of district judge by a few votes. The populist county convention will be hed at this place In a short time. There are county offices, In which, as yet, there ap- pears to be no candidates. After the Parade.
