It is Ki wi!, Indiana, the state which was guilty of Terry Heath, lieveridge and other horrors. Ficom the amount of tilling in and the tearing up oft Id wooden sidewalks that is iM'ing done on Main street, our city can soon boast of some as suttstan tial walks as any town in the state. Tiik republicans pretend to laugh at fusion in noli ties hut they are mortally afraid of a fusion of all democrats and the tarilf revision repuhlicans, tin a platform which calls for moderate tar itl revision. Wiiii.k so much is being written about poenage in the south, the dis covery lias Iteen made that a seventeen year old giri has been in bondage in North Iakota since she was two years old. having leen sold by her fater for ij,0O. Almost everyone but Roosevelt has forgotten the existence of a Cuban treaty and, left to itself, Congress would never pass the enabling legisla tion: but Teddy does not propose that it shall be forgotten, and he will call a special session to prevent It. fiKNKKAi. Lkonakd Wood has seen thirty days actual service, but In four years he has risen from an army surgeon with the rank of captain, to a brigadier general, very nearly the se nior brigadier, over the headsof sever al hundred seni rs w ho have served all through the civil war. Til kick are reports of grave scandals in the Postotlice I apartment, Interior I Apartment, the Department or Jus tice and in the Government Printing Oilier, while the Department of Agri culture is quietly investigating a little scandal of its own. Can any doubt that it is time for a change of administra tion? Sknatok Daniels, of Virginia, has knocked a large-sized hole in the finan cial legislation program. He calls at tention to the object of the Aldrich bill, a roundabout method whereby the banks can secure the surplus in the treasury to loan to the people who need it In their business at a good rate of in terest. Mr. Daniels points out that the logical course would be to so reduce taxation as to obviate any unnecessary surplus and permit the people to col lect the interest on their own money The republican governor of Wiscon sin is not talking for buncombe when he declares: "We are building up col lossal fortunes, granting unlimited power to corporate organization and massing together business interests as never before in the commercial history of the world, but the people are losing control of their own government. Its foundations are being sapped and its integrity destroyed." There is but one remedy the return of the people to the landmarks of the fathers of the Re public through the medium of demo cratic victory next year. I have used Ayer's Hir Vigor for over thirty years. It has kept my scalp free from dandruff and has prevented my hair from turn ing gray." Mrs. F. A. Soule, Billings, Mont. There is this peculiar thing about Ayer's Hair Vigor it is a hair food, not a dye. Your hair does not suddenly turn black, look dead and lifeless. Butgraduallytheold color comes back, all the rich, dark color it used to have. The hair stops falling, too. tl.M a Mil.

The Irrepressible Dave Hall, of Lou- siana, Missouri, accompanied by Mrs. Hall, while en route home from Color ado, stopped off here Saturday a few tours to visit Mrs. Kate Miner, a rela tive of Mrs. 15. The writer was never tore surprised in his life than to meet this eminent Missourian in lattsmouth. The writer has been in timately acquainted with Mr. Hull for over twenty years.and we have often sit side by side in the couucilsof the dem ocratic party of that grand oldtate. Hon. David A. Rail is one of the eading democrats of Missouri, and a truer one never resided within her bor ders. The weather was never too hot, never too cold or disagreeable in any manner for Dave Hall to get out and w ork for the success of democracy. We remember in the early spring of 1SD7, when Hon.. lames T. Lloyd, the present nctimbent, was nominated for con gress in the first district to fill the place f the lamented Dick (liles, of Shelby- ville, who was elected the fall previous, whose death created a vacancy) Dave Sail was advertised to speak in Mem- ihis. The tlay previous was a most disagreeable one, in fact a regular blizzard raged the greater part (if the day, all night and all the next day. eing interested in theelection of Mr. Joyd (whose election we have never tad cause to regret) we had arrived at the conclusion that the weather was too disagreeable for Mr. Hall to reach there. Hut when the hour of speaking arrived, perhaps one hundred and lifty people had ventured out to hear the gentleman from Tike, who is a great favorite with Scotland county demo crats who, like the writer, were doubt ful of his appearance. We did not wait long,' for soon the door opened, and in walked Mr. Hall, covered with snow, and amid the cheers of those present. This is the sort of a man Dave Hall is he would swim the big gest stream in the world if it was necessary to lill an appointment. David A Hall has been Lieutenant (Jovernor and was also a member of the Msssouri senate for four years. Three years ago he was a candidate for the democratic nomination for govern- r, and after a thorough canvass of the state, he saw there was no use to try to ebb the tital wave in favor of Gov ernor Dockery. and withdrew before the convention assembled. With any ther man to "buck" he would have stood an excellent show of success. Mr. Hall is an able man, eloquent in speech, and one of the finest orators in Missouri. In intellect he is a peer among ieers. and while he kindly con sented to talk a few moments in the convention Saturday, we regret that he did not have time to give the dem ocrats of Cass county a fair sample of what he really is oneof the incst gift ed, convincing and entertaining talk ers in the west. Judge Sullivan. Chief Justice John J. Sullivan was renominated for the position he has so creditably tilled for nearly six years, bv both democratic and populist state conventions on Tuesday last. His sDlendid legal attainments, ins clear and honorable record as a jurist, his high standing as a citizen, and his wide-spread popularity should insure his re-election. It is felt, too, that his uniform fairnessand freedom from bias on the bench, together with his free dom from all corporateentanglemetits, is sufficient to commend him to tne oters who have liecoinc wearied of electing railway henchmen to high dI aces in Nebraska. The argument is that, even among republicans, I)eit rich and Mickey and their like have created disgust that the domination of Spratlen, Baldwin and other corpor ation managersover the bench, the ex ecutive chamber, legislative commit tees and all other departments of state government has irrowrt so tiresome to self-respecting citizens, and that re gardless of politics they will join in a non-partizan effort to preserve the su preme court from the brazen and cyni cal rule of the railroad bosses. It is now up to the voters 01 AenrasKa.

Sullivan will un doubtedly succeed nimseir. The recent republican state conven tion endorsed the Ramsey law. - Of course they did. Hut how was it pos sible for it to do otherwise when the railroads run the convention? The Death Penalty. . A little thing sometimes results in death. Thus a mere scratch, msigni- icant cuts or puny boils have paid the death penalty. It is wise to have Rucklen's ArnicSalve handy. It sthe best salve on earth and will prevent fatality, while Hums, Sores, Ulcers and Piles threaten. Only 2oc, at F. G. Fricke & Co's. drugstore. Cut tbe Weeds. The road overseers of the county should do something with the weeds on the public roads. There is a good weed law in effect in this state and the road overseer has power to compel all to keep the weeds down adjoining their land. The season has been of the best for a good crop of rank weeds and with a little neglect the weeds will get the start of the crops next year and the careless will cause others to lose as well as themselves.

The republican party of Cass county has selected a county ticket that taken as a whole is perhaps as good a ticket as could be nominated under the existing conditions. And, by the way, these conditions will continue to exist just as long as the country districts consent to permit the nomi nations to be made behind closed doors in the city of l'lattsmouth prior to the holding of the convention. This perhaps is not good republican talk but it is true as gospel Just the same. The Courier has no objections to any of the gentleman who have been nominated, but it would welcome the day w hen the people of the county are permitted to have a voice in the county conventions instead of having a few ring leaders dictate who shall hold the county oftices. This is not only the opinion of the editor of this paper but it is common talk all over county and the only way to put a stop to the outrage is for the people to unite at the next county convention and give the Plattsmouth ring to understand that there are others who have their rights. Yes, we expect to hear someone say May Held is a knocker. Let that be as it may, but in all candor isn't it altout time someone had stamnny enough about them to knock? Isn't it? Louisville Courier. How's This? That was pretty fair logic II ro. May t'.eld, regarding politics in Cass in your last week's issue. It is good common sense. Hut the man that throws the lirst stone should not lie the one whose favorite candidate tied up and received to the full extent vote for vote, from this same "ring" you speak of. When the people of Cass don't have a voice in the cou.ity convention, it is when your favorite and other candidates insist tin trading. We have got a record of the vote. Weeping Water Herald.

Many of the leading republican new s papers of New York no longer veil their hostility to President Roosevelt as a candidate for the second term. For months these newspapers professed to be strong adherents of Mr. Roosevelt, but at the last of a sentence, of com mendation usually tucked in a grain of malice, so biting in quality that it more than counter-balanced the half hearted praise. Like the false friend Brutus, with his handy dagger conceal ed underneath his toga, they were pre pared to strike at the fitting moment. That time in the estimation of the New York politicians has now come. The dagger is no longer hidden under the toga; it Hashes in the hand, gleam ing in the light as it strikes sharp and sure, isot the sngnest action or j -res ident Roosevelt escapes his former al lies; every movement is scanned with the hope of gaining material for a bit- ng, sarcastic paragraph in the great peiiodicals. Harper's Weekly is espe cially vicious; for months it followed at the heels of the president, like a mongrel cur, occasionally giving him a vicious nip, but the bite was always tilled with rabid poison. Harper's Weekly has an enormous circulation; t is a weekly visitor through all the western ranch country where President Roosevelt numbers his best friends. The great New York periodicals with their wide circulation hold the power of doing an incalculable injury to any candidate under their ban of disapprov al. President Roosevelt must also face the bitternessengendered in the south by his attitude on the southern ques tion. Senator Livingston, one of the eaders of the democratic minority, de mands that one of the questions dis cussed in the coming session of con gress shall be the attitude of the re publican party on the color question, that they as a party must either sup port or repudiate the stand taken by the president in regard to the negro. Political plots will thicken as the months go by, until, as the time for each political circus shall arrive, a new set of bill boards may be in evidence, advertising performers now in obscur- ty.
