ANNOUNCEMENT.
I hereby announce myself as a candi
date for the republican nomination for
Register of Deeds of Cass county, sub
ject to the pleasure of the voters at
the coming primaries. In asking for
this nomination I desire to call atten
tion to the fact that my services in the
office of county stmyor, while being
largely of a "thank yoj" nature, the
remuneration being insufficient fr the
support of a family, have eminently
fitted me for the duties of the office to
which I aspire, and in case I should re
ceive the nomination I shall use my
best endeavors to be elected, and will
five to the office my best attention.

To actually hake into them a subtle

The farmers of Nebraska have just
finished harvesting a crop of wheat and
oats above the average in yield and
quality. It now looks as though we
are to have the largest crop of corn
ever grown in the state. The future
never looked brighter for the farmer
than it does today. The yield of his
crops is not only unusually large but
the prevailing prices are abnormally
high as well. The farmer is enjoying
a greater degree of prosperity than
ever before. He has more of the com
forts of life more leisure time and what
is still better is independent of all the
world. It has always been a mystery
to us why boys and girls reared in such
surroundings are continually moving to
the cities. If they only but knew it
they are a thousand times better off
than the boy or girl in the city. The
0
boy or girl that works in an office or
clerks in some store puts in longer
hours and works harder than they
would on the farm. The man that
owns his farm is making as much money
if not more than the merchant; has
less to worry about and can have more
of the real comforts of life.

i Get In On This Sale. It will !
Get What You
Want
That is, in the grocery line,
at Soennichsen's. You can
not go to any grocery store
and get anything in the gro
cery line that you want like
. you can at Soennichsen's.
You can go there and get
the staple articles at a sav
ing that you cannot afford to
ignore. You also get good
goods and prompt service. Is
not that worth considering?
Just give him your next gro
cery order and see if this isn't
true.
Soennichsen's
The chief drawback the farmer has
to meet in marketing his crops is the
abominable condition of the roads over
which he must haul his grain to mar
ket. We are of the opinion that every
farmer should consider himself a com
mittee of one to impress upon the coun
ty commissioners the necessity of put
ting the roads in better condition pre
paratory to delivering his crops to mar
ket. At a comparatively small cost
our roads can be made the best in the
world. If the commissioners would
call for bids for grading the roads and
then treat them to the split log drag
after each rain we feel sure that they
would find any number of farmers that
would be glad to do the work. In our
opinion all that is needed is a beginning.
If this work could only be gotten under
way and the farmers once see for
themselves how much easier and eco
nomical they could market their crops
they would never again tolerate for a
moment the miserable condition of the
roads that now exist. There are a few
places in the county where the roads
are now dragged regularly after each
rain. It is actually a treat to drive
over these roads. We certainly trust
that the commissioners will at least
give this matter a trial.

. It is very bad manners to s(.eak
slightingly of a place which presents to
you sufficient inducements to live in.
And, besides, a "croaker" is not liked
in any community.
Appreciative Mention.
The delightful manner in which the
friends of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Pollock
in many and unexpected ways, grsco
fully expressed their kindly regard on
the celebration of their fiftieth wedding
anniversary day, deeply touched the
hearts of the recipients.
In addition the cordial greetings und
gooi wishes of nil present, from Mrs.
J. F. Buck in hor 90th yeur.down to the
smallest .assistants at the festivities
rounded out a day, the memory of
which will never fade.
Robert Patton und Erick Bachstrom
left this afternoon for Chicago where
they will take in the sights for a few
days.
