prosecution of an enterprise sobene-
ticient, it has been necessary to kill a

the vain pride of others by trampling

humiliation.
uu distinguished fellow townsman
Byron Clark is having political
distinction showered upon him quite
plentifully of late, having leen "men
tioned"asan available candidate for
congress, for supreme judge, and for
appointment to the federal bench
But there is only one office that Byron
really cares for, and that is his law
office.
(Tio long as the political complexion
of the senate remains as it
now it will be a perfectly safe propo
sition for the high protectionists to
have reciprocity dangled before the
eyes of the people. Commissioner Kas
son was so disgusted with the trans
parent fraud in the reciprocity game
that he threw up his job in disgust
Reciprocity has proven to be a barren
makeshift, and this is why Congress
man Babcock and a number of repub
lican leaders and newspapers are push
ing tariff reform to the front.
ffHE lack of rain all over the western
Vl countr3 and right in the great
corn belt, has affected business to some
extent. For fear that the entire sea
son will be dry, and the corn crop be
almost a total failure, improvements
of many kinds have been postponed
Men are not investing their money
only those who are speculating on
grain.
ff t will repay Americans to contem
II
country as bearing upon their own
and their children's safety and liberty
We are on dangerous ground in a most
dangerous frame of mental thought
We are abandoning a creed that pre
served our own rights and respected
the rights of others. The final aban
donment of this creed means more o
calamity to us than even to those
weaker than us whom we may con
quer, despoil and forcibly govern. This
is due to the fact that we are destroy
ing the foundation of the fabric o
free government, and that it is our
selves who will be crushed by the col
lapse of the splendid structure.
7"rnK Missouri river commission in
its annual report complains that
lack of funds has hampered the work
of making the river navigable. Con
gress was kind, however, in taking the
worry for this oversight off the mind
of the commissioners for the future
but the members would probably hav
been perfectly willing to continue
their lamentations if the pay-roll had
not been stopped.
T irm iiatevek may be the desires o
the shipping and ship-building
syndicate backing the ship subsidy
scheme, the needs of American ship
building in that connection are not
apparent. This industry is increasing
so rapidly even under our present an
tiquated shipping laws that the force
of the ship subsidy argument is much
diminished.
jCrom present indications the state
Jl fair will be held at Lincoln for
all time to come. The state board of
public lands and buildings has pur
chased the old fair grounds as a per
manent site for the state fair, paying
17,000 therefor. The state will spend
$18,000 more on improvements. As
long as Nebraska is to have a state
fair no doubt the purchase of a per
manent site is a good thing, and Lin
coln is as good a location for the fair
as any place. Everything points to a
successful fair this year.
-TThe Bee says: Many of the leading
populist papers in Nebraska are
outspoken in the opinion that fusion
has outlived its usefulness. As fusion
never accomplished any other Dur-
pose than to furnish offices to a few
politicians, this must be taken as a
confession that fusion cannot win
again. The Nebraska voter has cer
tainly learned that the reform ball Is
not under the fusion shell, and will re'
fuse to bite on the game again.
7lfflALT Mason very' truthfully re
fr marks: The Commoner has a
very ancient and sickly appearance,
The paper is a bleached yellow in
color, leaving the impression that it
is mellowed by age ; the type used is
old-fashioned, reminding you of the
time when public was spelled "pub
lick," and when an s looked like an f.
The ink is evidently cheap, and it
prints gray instead of black. The
paper would be much more entertain
ing if it had a modem appearance.
Ht the meeting of the republican
committee in Weeping Water
last Saturday among those present
were Henry Boeck and J. I. Unruh, of
Plattsmouth, which naturally sug
gests the inquiry, who will the repub
licans nominate for coroner litis fall?
'TT'Hb'. gigantic si eel trust has a I a rill"
V subsidy-1 if forty per cent, on its
products. This enables il to sell
American-made goods abroad cheaper
than at home. The extortion is open
ly defended and boasted of as protec
tion to American labor, but in reality
it taxes American labor to create div
idends on watered stock.
SiNCK the swimming fever has
struck town a distinction has ap
parently lieen made between swim
ming and bathing. If you take your
plunge where clothes are necessary
you are bathing, hut if you go in clad
only in nature's garments you are in
swimming. I'eople can not le too
particular in this matter.

Weather cooler, since the rain of
Saturday night. Corn is greatly ben
efitted both by cooler weather and
rain, and is now said to stand a show
of making a good half crop. This
means about twenty bushels per acre
That was a good yield of wheat for
J. II. Vallery thirty-one bushels per
acre.
Jake Tuylor threshed spring wheat,
yielding eighteen bushels per acre.
This is called a good turnout.
The hum of the thresher is heard in
the land. Vallery & Crabtree, Propst
& Co. and Ben Horning & Co. are do-
the threshing. All have good outfits,
and are said to be doing good work.
John Bergman wild 4,000 bushels of
corn on last Monday at 50c. Who said
prosperity had a broken limb? But
Mark withheld the rain, and gave us a
shower of chintz bugs instead.
W. T. Richardson lost another valu
able horse a few days ago the second
in a few weeks.
Several hired men herea!outs have
taken enforced vacations lately
caused by the withholding of rain.
Joe Adams, in addition to building
a new bain, is erecting a commodious
addition to his dwelling. This will
give him one of the finest residence
properties in this vicinity.
A covered vehicle stopped in town
last evening long enough to learn that
its occupants w ere not wanted. Soiled
doves constituted the cargo.
Schlotman, the blacksmith, is kept
busy setting wagon tires. esides other
work in his line.
Phil Ook is stacking grain for the
Wenke lmys. Phil is a great man on
the stack.
George Wenke was a Mynard visitor
on last Sunday evening, but why men
tion it. George is a visitor to Mynard
very frequently of late.
Gillespie had a car of hgs on the
South Omaha market on Tuesday. lie

Wm. Jamison shipped fat hogs to
South Omaha on Monday.
A surprise dance was given at Henry
Englekemeier's last Thursday night,
and all enjoyed a good time.
John Urish, Adam Schafer and Ed
Gansemer returned home from Okla

Chas. Boedeker received a new rub
ber tired buggy last week. What w ill

The people of this locality thank
the Lord for the nice shower of rain
given them last Saturday night, which
they so badly needed.
Union
From the Ledger.
ihe threshing machines in this
neighborhood have been humming
lively tunes the past week, and the
farmers have found it no easy matter
to secure sufficient help to keep pace
with the machines.
L. A. Tyson, the genial druggist of
Elmwood, made us a brief visit Thurs
day. Mr. Tyson has his lines out to
secure the republican nomination for
county clerk, and expressed himself as
well pleased with his prospects polit
ically.
People in this village watched the
lightning and listened to the thunder
last Tuesday night with expectations
of having a -downpour of rain, but
only a few drops reached here. East
of town there was a heavy rain for a
short time, but it was confined to a
small territory and not sufficient to do
a great amount of good to the crops.
nenry F. Taylor informs us that
some people have a wrong understand
ing regarding the road controversy
that has been on for some time, a few
having the idea that he is fighting
against the opening of any road from
the bottoms Into town. He says the
whole trouble is in regard to the place
for opening the road, and not as to
whether there shall le any road es
tablished. The editor of this paper has had
many voluntary offers of support for
the republican nomination for county
clerk, and until recently we had some
serious intention of being nominated
and elected, but we have concluded
that we cannot afford to abandon the
work of running a good newspaper in
one of the liost towns in the Ijest
county in Nebraska, to devote time
and expense to secure a jiomination
and election, and we make this state
ment that the other ixtya may know
that we are not in t he hunt.
Nehawka
From the Register.
On account of the heat these days
some of the force employed are work
ing half time at the rock quarry.
L. E. Stone sliipjied one car of hogs
Monday and two cats Tuesday. Lester
is getting to I quite a hog buyer.'
Henry iiucliolz's wheat went thirty
seven bushels to the acre, but the ban
ner yield so far as we have heard is
Jim Easter's. His wheat went thirty
eight and one-half bushels per acre.
Chris Ross finished up- threshing
thirteen hundred bushels of wheat
and seventeen hundred bushels of oats
last Saturday afternoon. He surely
can pull through if he doesn't get any
corn.
A game of base ball between the
businessmen of Union and Nehiwka
is scheduled to take place some time
in the near future. Union had letter
come prepared as we have some mean
ball players in our set.
Albert Alsford bought the John Mc
Bride property last week, paying-f 1,100
for the same. We are sorry to lose
the McBrides, who will probably want
to move back about January 1, but we
are glad to hear that Albert's mother
will occupy the premises.
Grandpa West returned from Ge
neva, Neb., Sunday evening. He re
ports the drouth a little worse there
than here, and says if no rain falls
this weel- farmers will put their self
binders in the fields and cut and bind
their corn tor feed. He says they are
not so badly off as they might be if
they were depending on a corn crop,
as they had a great amount of winter
wheat in, which made a very heavy
crop, running from twenty to forty
bushels per acre.
Weeping Water
From the Republican.
John Hess, of Wabash, was a caller
Saturday. While in town he left with
our carpenters plans for a new house
he will erect there, 24x2G.
August Gorder, of Plattsmouth, vis
ited his brother Fred and familvTues

member just back of the second joint
Last Friday, on complaint of her
father. .Miss Luetic Shepherd was
taken to Plattsmouth, in custody of
Constable Badgley, and a charge of
incorrigibility entered against her,
A hearing was had before Judge I wug-
lass. Because of a change in the law
it was found that this charge was not
sufficient to send her to the reform
school, and Mr. Shepherd not caring to
enter a complaint of a more serious
nature, let the matter drop and they
returned home. Since then Miss Shep
herd has found a home with Mrs. Van
dekar, and that estimable lady will
undertake the task of reforming the
girl. Thiscanbe done with the girl's
help, and it is to be hoped that in the
future she will be tine to her own best
Interests.

cold, and is so hoarse he can barely
speak above a whisper.
S. I). Eells is circulating a petition
for the post office at the expiration of
Postmaster Alton's term of office, and
the petition is being liberally signed.
The citizens of Elmwood now have
something to take up part of their
time. Charles Rivett has announced
himself as a candidate for assessor on
the republican ticket. John Hart
will also ask for the nomination again,
and the struggle is on.
Mrs. J. Bischoff, of Alvo, called on
Wednesday in company with her niece
who is here from Omaha spending va
cation. She said the corn about Alvo
looked better than here, as they had
had more rain.
Dan Fcntlman and Wm. Lefler were
at Omaha one day last week with a
car of cattle, and struck a wild mar
ket. Out of 113 cars of cattle sold
they were the only ones that received
more than they paid for the stock, and
they only received $1.80 each more
than they paid.
Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Ferguson re
turned Thursday evening of last week
from a delightful trip and visit of two
and a half -months duration in the
east. They enjoyed splendid visits
with relatives with relatives and old
friends in Illinois, New York, Penn
sylvania, Massachusetts, New Hamp
shire and Ohio. They spent nearly a
week in Boston, and several days at
the Buffalo exposition. Mr. Ferguson I
says the exposition did not come up to I
the Trans-Mississippi, with the excep
tion of the electrical display, which
was away ahead of anything they ever
saw. Mr. Ferguson said plenty of
rain had fallen back there up until
the time they left.
Eagle
From the Beacon.
Charlej Venner suffered a severe
sun stroke Monday, and it was feared
for several hours that he would not
recover. Fred Neu and Charley Gard
ner also had light attacks.
T. N. Bobbit was in Eagle Tuesday.
He informed us that his son ('ha lies,
who is holding a good position lor

corn in this locality looked letter than
any place he had been, and he travels
over considerable territory.
R. B. Morgan has sold his store in
Alvo io George Frohlich, a hustling
young man of Alvo. We are glad to

Some of the leading republicans of
the state are urging Byron Clark of
Plattsmouth to be a candidate for su
preme judge. We earnest ly hope that
he will be a candidate. lie stands
high at the bar throughout the wvst.
A man of rare good judgment, he
would certainly bring a great deal of
prestige to our supreme court. His
election is sure if nominated.
Louisville
From t he Courier.
i 'ist Lt'linhoir came to town the

surnmei siege at farming. He was

Last Tuesday afternoon Galie Frib
ble fell from a moving Hat car a the
Cedar Creek stone quarry where he
was engaged in loading rock, and in
the fall had the misfortune to break
two ribs and bruising him badly about
the chest. He fell on the track, and
had it not been for the quick move
ment of a fellow laboie- who pulled
him from underneath the moving car
he would have lieen killed.
The artesian well at Fort Crook
should mean much to the future of
the pretty barracks in Sarpy county.
It largely increases the accommoda

government is sure to enlarge its use
of the groundf. The well is proving
to be one of the best in the country.
