I have thought for sowo time that I
should enjoy the work, but the amount
of real satisfacllon roalizod will de
pend on the success attainod.
Newspapers usually pet all the en
couragement and hmnciai support
they deserve, and I have no doubt but
that The News will receive in the
future all the assistance it merits.
After the first of January it will re
ceive mv undivided aiienuou.
During the six years which 1 have
held oflice in this county the people,
regardless of political affillat'on, have j
given mo hearty support in ray work
and have been uniformly kind and
courteous. It is my wish that the
past pleasant relations may continue,
and that we may be mutually help
ful.
Soliciting your hearty support and
co-operatiou and trusting you will be
as charitable in this, ray first attempt
in journalism, as you were during my

Never. in the history of this coun

sponsibility, there is no hesitancy.
AN examination of the list of "dis
tinguished statesmen'1 who partici
pated in the anti expansion meeting
at Chicago show that tho term "ex"
attached to the title of a very large
majority of tho number, indicating
thai they. were as a rule "gentlemen
with a grievance." The "antis" are
mainly "oxes."
"I jKY.an prated about imperialism
in this count-y. There in't n tingle
imperialist In the whole nation and
he knows it. He prated about expnn
sion and denounced expansionists.
Why, we have been expansionists
from the days of the thirteen original
colonies." Senator Banna at Marys
vllle, O., October 2G
When George F. Houseworth touk
chargi of tha offic of clerk of the dis
trict court ho instituted reforms and
adouted rules tht were at "first very
unpopular, but his business-like
methods, together with the neatness
a"d accuracy with which the records
have been kept, have made him the
most popular official who ever held
that o3!ce.
The Omaha World-Herald, Mr.
Bryan's personal organ, states that
the advocates of txpansion say wo
need territory to relieve the compact
population of the United States and
pi o vide for future growth, and in
quires, "why choose a tropical climate
in which the Anglo-Saxon raeo has
never been able to live?" The expan
sion proposition, so-called, looks to an
Increase of market for our products
and closer relation .with territory
which produces the things which wo
must continually buy. The tropical
territory of which it talks, of itoolf
offers a market for $100,000,000 of our
products annually, and will prove the
door through which hundreds of mil
lions more will pass to other adjacent
markets, while the islands will, at the
sarao time, furnish tropical products
for which we are now sending over
$200,000,000 annually of our good
money to other countries for articles
which we must consume and which we
do not produco at home.
Mu. Buy AN remarked In one of bis
recent speeches that "three years
have justified the assertions made by
the democratic party in 1896." Mr.
Bryan seems to have forgotten the
fHCt that in spite of the assertions of
the domocratle parly in 1890, the
money in circulation in the Unitec.
States has meantime increased from
$1,506,000,000 to nearly $2,000,000,000;
the per capita of money in circulation
from $21. IS to nearly $26; the gold in
circulation from $464,000,000 to about
$750,000,000: tho exports of manufac
tures from $22S,OO0,00O to 138,000,009
a year, and the total exports from
$8S2.0O0.00O to $L227,0O0.0CO per an
num. If this justiOes democratic pre
dictions of 1806 tho country will listen
with equanimity to more of the same
sort in 1000.
Tun Colorado 6ilver republicans who
deserted the partv in 1S96 nave con
cluded that after all it is moving along
the right Hoe and ought to bo sup
ported. In a platform adopted in Den
ver a few days ago, they demanded
"the vigorous and speedy prosecution
and termination of the war in tho
Philippine islaads, and the earliest
establishment and recognition of na
tional authority there to tho end that
the best possible government may bo
established in thoso Islands," while
similar expressions, coming from sil
ver democrats through the south, show
that the attempts to reorganize the
democratic party on anti-expanpion
lines cannot be successful.

If you can find a person in the county

For a number of years both tho s
cial and political conditions of this
county havo been Beriously disturbed
on account of matters pertaining
l.irrciv to our district court. Numer
ous charges and counter charges have
been made made by democrats, popu

tho past, and, so far as possible, forget
it. Lot us e'ean off tho slato and be

In MANY respects tho office of pro
bate judgo is the most important posi
tion in this or any other county, and
the people are practically a unit in
tho opinion that it should be filled by
a lawyer of ability and ex periencc. If
tho proper consideration is given to
this niattpr and tho ability and gen
eral make-up of the two candidates
carefully compared, J. E. Douglass'
majority will not be less than one
thou.-nnd.
In ability Judge Reose Is head
and shoulders above ex-Governor Hoi
comb. They do not trot in the same
class. People who vote for tho ex
governor will do so because he ia on
their ticket or because a certain ambi
tious democrat wants him to do so.
Judge Itecso is an eminent j irist of
dignity, integrity and true worth,
while bis opponent i3 a lawyer of but
ordinary ability and a politician.
The candidates for tho oflice of
county treasurer are two of the most
honest and highly respected citizens
of Cass county. One should blush to
6ay aught against the personal char
acter of either. Each is an honor to
his particular party. But that Mr.
Barton's fitness for pei forming tho
duties of the office surpasses thut of
his worthy opponent cannot be ques
tioned. P.ri. Jessen'S majority in the dis
trict is variously estimated at from
100 to 800. The average between these
two extremes (450) would not be so
bad. The teems "pull," "stand in,"
"benefleiary," etc., aie not U3ed when

NOT GUILTY.
The editor of TH News has be'
pe- sonnlly acquainted with John H.
Davis, republio-tn candidate for county
commissioner, for over twenty years,
living within less than two miles of
his home the major part of that time,
and in all these years has never
beard his honesty questioned. The
business transaction in which be was
charged with taking advantage of the
man with whom he dealt has been
carefully investigated . by leading- cit
izens of Xehwka and otbers,and tbey
have brought In a verdict of not
OCILTY.
Mr. Davis resides two miles from
Weeping Water, but is lnthe school
district in which the city is located .
As president of the board of education
he has made a record for himself a9
being, careful and conscientious
in the performance of his duties, al
ways keeping in mind the" beat In
terests of tho general public. He is
serving cither his eocond or third
torm,and no complaint has been heard
as to the manner in which he, with
his associates, has handled " public
funds or otherwise served the district.
He is conservative and a man of most
excellent business judgment. You
will agrco with THE NEWS that any
man who has served the p-opte as long
and as satisfactorily as Mr. Davis has
done, and has been willing to make
the necessary sacrifice of time and
energy without a money and without
price. Is worthy the support he asks
at this time. -
If you can accept tho above please
voto for John Davis for commissioner.
Jlst listen! The Journal says:
"Never was a more competent man
nominated for county judge in Cass
county than Captain Oscar H. Allen "
The democratic candldato for district
judge ought to make tho editors of
that paper take it back or else state
that they wore just joking. Mr. Allen
will have to burn midnight oil for
some time yet before he can get a di
ploma from tho law school of our uni
versity. His qualifications are not to
ba compared for one minute with
those of J. E. Douglass, who has had
ten years' actual practice in the courts
of this oounty and state. Tho editor
of TnE News has been Intimately ac
quainted with Mr. Douglass for. more
than ten years, and can vouch for him
as a gentleman of ability and integrity,
and is anything on earth but narrow
and prejudiced.
R. A. Case is making a clean, quiet

The prosperity here at home is appar

who were out of esaploymeat ia IMS

It was rumored in the city of Provi
dence a while ago that the pastor ot
the Center church was about to marry
a certain Miss S-, a beautiful society
young woman, but belonging to the
Episcopal church. The good people of
the" pastor's church talked it over and
came to the conclusion that he might
choose more wisely. Finally it was
left to the elders to wait noon and
expostulate with him. They visited,
him and expressed to him tho feelings
of the church. The pastor listened
i patiently till they were through, nnd
'then laconically remarked: "Gentle
I men, there la more than one Congre

Doctors Can't
Cure It!
Contagious blood poison is absolutely
beyond the skill of the doctors. They
may dose a patient for years on their
mercurial and potash remedies, but he
will never be rid of the disease ; on the
ather hand, his condition will grow
steadily worse. S. 8. S. is the only cure
for this terrible affliction, because it is
the only remedy which goes direct to
the cause of the disease and forces it
from the system.
t was fSlcterl with Blnml Pnlmn. and tha
best doc ton did me no sood, though I took
their treatment lalln
fully. In fact, I seemed
to net worse all the
while. 1 took almost
Tery to-called blood
remedy, but they did not
seem to reach the din
earie, and had no Sect
whatever. 1 was dla
f5i that 1 w'uld never be
medicine, and It cured tne completely, build
ing up my health and Increasing my appetite.
Although this was ten years ago, 1 have never
yet had a slfraof the disease to return.

It is like self-destruction to continue
to take potash and mercury; besides
totally destroying the digestion, they
dry up the marrow in the bones, pro
ducing a stiffness and swelling of the
joints, causing the hair to fall out, and
completely wrecking the system.
