So, you see you are "joshing" about something you know nothing about. Vote For Bryan. The following editorial from the Lin coln State Journal, the leading repub lican organ of Nebraska, reflects the .state of mind of many republicans, not only in the capital city, the home of Mr. Bryan, but in other sections of the country, as well. There must be a great republican sentiment in Nebraska for the peerless. If not, the State Journal would be the last paper to in any way acknowledge it. Below is the Journal's editorial: Lincoln, Neb., April 27. To the Editor of the State Journal: I heait ily endorse your non-partisan senti ment as to the proper attitude of the citizens of Lincoln for this j-ear. A narrow, not to say vindicti.e, parti sanship against Mr. Bryan, who is so highly honored at home and abroad, would reflect upon the intelligence ar.d character of the people of Lincoln. As a member of the Round Table, cunded by Mr. Bryan, as a citizen of In Springs and Early Summer a Tonic is Needed. The source of good blood is fresh air and well-digested food. If anything interferes with diges tion the blood becomes impure. A catarrhal condition of the stomach prevents perfect digestion. Such a condition allows the food to ferment and decompose in various ways, instead of digesting. The blood is thus contaminated with various materials that do not belong in the blood. This gives rise to spring fever, eruptions on the skin, general lassitude and constipation. Peruna corrects all these difficulties by striking at the source of them. By eradicating the ca tarrhal condition of the stomach Peruna at once restores digestion, the blood is thereby purified, and the whole machinery of the body is put in working order. Peruna has probably made a more remarkable record in cases of catarrh of the stomach than any oiner medicine.

F. S. Stein. The "non-partisan sentiments" ts which Dr. Stein refers were a plain statement of the well known facts that political rancor has died down to such an extent that in the event of the nomination of Mr. Bryan, the can didate and his democratic visitors are likely to be treated not only with tol eration, but with open politeness in Lincoln during the coming campaign. It is only stating a fact to add that few republicans are ready to follow Dr. Stein in announcing their willing ness to cast a complimentary vote for their townsman in advance of the con vention and before the issues of the campaign are crystalized. It is not improbable that the reactionaries in the republican party, not only in the east but here in Nebraska, will secret ly attempt to secure the election of Mr. Bryan because they want a rebuke administered to President Roosevelt and his preferred candidate. 'In that event Dr. Stein may be forced to re main with his own party to save it from being undermined by the special interests wing, which is determined to ruin where it cannot rule. But when he comes to that decision he will not feel that it is necessary to make faces at Mr. Bryan or throw stones at his carriage. He will frankly tell Mr. Bryan his position and there will be no breach in their friendship. That will be the attitude of the republicans of Lincoln generally. It is not non-partisanship, but partisanship of a sane and unobjectionable kind. Byran Sentimsnt in New Ycrkr ! i (From the New York Telegram.) i The situation in democratic politics begins to assume a very Bryanesque ! tinge.

Mr. William Hoge, President V Broadway, New York, N. Y., writes : "I endorse Peruna as the most effectual remedy for catarrh I have baen able to find in my travels in this country or Kurope.

The results being remark employed against the Nebraskan and have manifested a desire to get aboard the Bryan band wagon. Not the least conspicuous of these gentle-'. men is former U. S. Senator Lind-! say, of Kentucky, now practising law in New York. Senator Lindsay voted against Bryan in 1SC6, leading the revolt in his State for Palmer and Buckner, the candidate on the Gold Democratic ticket. A close friend of Senator Lindsay's said yesterday at the Waldorf-Astor-it that the men behind the Johnson boom had made the mistake of sup posing that you could nominate a man for the presidency of the United States by merely calling him a Swede. They say that it is really a pity that a good man like Governor Johnson, of Minnesota, should be so mismanaged as to make it impossible for the democratic convention to even nominate him for second place. It is surmised that the falling off in Johnson sentiment is due largely to the lack of warmth shown in the movement by James J. Hill, of Min nesota. Mr. Hill ceased to take much interest in the Governor Johnson Presidential aspirations as soon as he learned that W. G. Conrad, the Montana banker, miner and railroad owner, was Mr. Bryan's personal choice for the vice-presidency. Mr. Conrad is a Virginian and went into the northwest forty years ago, when Mr. Hill started to open up that wil derness. Mr. Conrad and Mr. Hill have been close business and per sonal friends during all these years. Both gentlemen have become multi millionaires by helping build up that section of the country, and they have convinced Mr. Bryan that the way to win out is to adopt the policy of building up rather than tearing down. Mr. Conrad was seen at the National Park Bank before he started west yes terday, lie said: "Mr. Bryan will be nominated be yond the shadow of a doubt. He al ready has more than enough delegates pledged to him to control the conven tion. Business men generally are turn- Mrs. Emily Kellogg, GG$9 S.

I am happy to bo able to say it has helped me wonderfully." Eyes Red end Watery. Mr. William S. Hearn, J;3 Segal St., Camden, N. J., writes : "Por about two years I was troubled ing to Mr. Bryan and I look upon his election as a sure thingr." Mr. Conrad was asked if he was a candidate for vice-president, and he replied very frankly that he was rot a candidate in the sense of hunting for the place. "A number of my friends in the south and west," he said, "have asked me to be a candidate on the theory Viat it was about time the South had some representation upon the democratic ticket. I'm Enot going to d anything to get the nomitation, but if it comes my way I'll be pleas ed to accept it. I consider it a great honor to run on the ticket with Colonel Bryan. He is one of the big men of this century." The bringing forward of Mr. Con rad's name at this time is a shrewd play on the part of Mr. Bryan. Mr. Conrad is the most popular figure in the northwest. Worth anywhere from $25,000,000 to $40,000,000, he is as simple and democratic as Bryan himself. His personality pervades the whole northwestern country. When it becomes known that he is Mr. Bryan's personal choice for the second place on the ticket, the John son boom will collapse. It is neces sary for Wall street to understand these facts in order to thoroughly grasp the democratic situation. One thing is certain. If Mr. Conrad is on the democratic ticket with Mr. Bry an the platform will be a conserva tive one. His name insures for the democratic party a conservative policy. The victory of Senator Bailey in Texas is a sign of the returning sanity of the Democratic party in that state, and both the party and the state are to be congratulated. It augured no good to the great commonwealth when a considerable number of its Demo crats were ready to forget the great services of a grat man because of a baseless Euspicion that he had broken the letter or the spirit of the law.

In two weeks' time Peruna had com pletely rid my system of the poison and bile, and I was in a much better condition.

Perhaps if that Congressional com mittee appointed to investigate the paper trust dosen't look out it may find that there is a paper trust in spite of itself. The Ministers alliance is discussing whether or not there is a decline in theo'.ogy. This recalls an aphorism of the late Sam Jones, "I hate theology and botany, but I love religion and flowers."
