A friend in need clings to you for
all you are worth.

Nebraska produces more wheat

than any olher state.
:o:
One million foreign born laborer:
have left the United States for Eu

Railroad rates will advance 25 per

is a coal expert's prophecy.
:o:
Make hay while the sun shims

it when the harvest is ready.
:o:
The way some people scheme tc
secure free publicity is sufficient ?o
convince the editor that they do not
believe that paper has advanced in
price.
:o:
Although the packers say they
aren't getting it, and the meat re
tailers say they aren't either, we
wonder why we never hear of pack
ers and butchers going broke In such
numbers as cattlemen are reported
to be in some sections.
:o:
Air. McAdoo admits he is for tax
reforms, but of course his views are
not important, as he i not a candi
date for anything. Also, he thinks
the railroad question should be re
opened, if private ownership fails af
ter a reasonable trial.
:o:
Candidates for the meanest v.-onian
are also in order. And our ntry
i- the woman who spanked Iut little
g'rl for betraying to visitors that she
1i;m1 tb whooping cough, as though
the fear of quarantine could enable
a child to remain silent through a
paroxysm of whooping cough.

The sugar probe in Kansas City
will be continued through this week.
That's about the only thing to do
when the sugar is short to stir vio
lently. :o:
The old time system that the of
fice seeks the man may still hold
true, but if it does the presidential
office this year is doing a lot of flirt
ing.
:o:
The Journal can never believe that
the vice-president holds no important
office and yet throws the first ball on
the opening of the season in "Wash
ington. :o:
Probably the real reason why over
alls are not entirely popular is be
cause the average man is afraid
folks will think his wife is wearing
the pants.
:o:
Once more it has been demonstrat
ed that May day cannot be turned
into a day of anti-social demonstra
tion in America. Americans are too
busy moving.
:o:
In Vienna a safety razor, exactly
like a popular Ameriman make, pack
ed in a leather case with a dozen
blades, sells for SO crowns or about
twenty-five cents.
:o:
Another federal judge holds that
the Lever act has a kick in it after
all. Fcrhaps all it needs is mixing
with an attorney general who is not
all campaign foam.

brother all right, but "there was a
lot of things we needed more."

SAYS HANDS WERE
, ALMOST USELESS
Rheumatism and Other Troubles Be
gan to Disappear After Tak
ing Tanlac.
"There's no mistake about Tanlac
being a real medicine, for nothing
but a real medicine could do what it
has for me," said Mrs. Ilattie Camp
bell, of 1808 Grace St., Omaha, Neb.
"Beginning with indigestion four
years ago," continued Mrs. Campbell,
"my troubles multiplied till my life
became one of constant suffering.
F.vprvthinc I would eat soured on
my stomach and almost tortured me
to death. The gas would press on
my heart at times so I could hardly
hrpathe and I would almost smoth
er. I suffered from heartburn and
had nervous sick headaches and was
so dizzy that I would almost fall ev
ery time I stooped over. I had rheu
matism in mv hands so bad that my
fingers were all bent over, and at
times they would become so numb as
to be almost useless. My appetite
was Door and I fell oft" from one hun
dred and thirty pounds to ninety-
four and nobody will ever know how
much I suffered.
"I was in an awful fix. and while
I tried everything recommended, I
found no relief until my sister and
some of my friends got me to take
Tanlae. While on mv second bottle
my appetite returned, I could eat al
most anything I wanted and my oth
er troubles began to leave me. I
have regained sixteen pounds of my
lost weight and am now able to eat
anything I want without suffering
from gas or indigestion afterwards.
Mv hands and finirers have become
supple again and I hardly notice any
rheumatic pain in them. Those head
aches and dizzy spells are gone and
T have imnroved so much that I
hardly feel like the same person."
Tanlac is sold in l'lattsmouth by
F. O. Fricke and Company and the
leading druggist in every town.
It takes tw-j to make a collisWu,
as well as a contract.
:o:
Transportation seems to T)e the
missing key to most difficulties.
:o:
i")me men will never go to wcrk
until labor is made unlawful.
:o:
A little more red blood and less
red flag is needed everywhere today.
:o:
Whiskers are cultivated by young
professional men who feel tlie need
of greater dignify and by bank cash
iers who are leaving the community
and feel the need of greater secur
ity.

PROTEST OF A FACULTY
The rumpus at the Chatham Epis
copal Institute at Richmond. Ya.,
over the matter o! the delivery of a
lecture on Harriet Beecher Stowe is
regrettable as showing the persis
tence of some of the prejudices and
passions of the days of the 'fiOs which
we had hoped had entirely died out.
The lecture was arranged for and
later the engagement was cancelled
by President Frudcn of the institute
who held that a lecture on Harriet
Beecher Stowe before southern girls
would be out of place. Whereupon
the larger part of the faculty, com
posed in large part of women gradu
ates of northern colleges, and the
principal resigned.
It would seem that a discourse on
so eminent a little personage as the
author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin"
should not be out of place now at
any educational institution in the
country, and that even southern peo
ple themselves could not get a true
historical view of the struggle over
slavery without becoming acquainted
with the standpoint from which the
author of the famous book wrote.
It would be easy, also, to explain and
discuss this standpoint with an ap
preciation at the same time of the
southern view and in a manner and
temper that would not give offense.
At any rate, if President Pruden
considered that a v difficult situation
had been created by the engagement
of the lecturer, he did not improve
it, and seems to have acted from an
excess of caution that appeared ridi
culous even to many of his southern
friends.

FRIST ASSESSOR TO
COMPLETE WORK
This morning Ed Doran, assessor
of Tipton precinct, was in the city to
make his report in the assessment of
that precinct. Mr. Doran has the
distinction of being the first assessor
to complete his work and file his re
port with County Assessor George L.
Farley and it is no slight distinction
as the job of assessing this year has
been exceptionally strenuous with all
the real estate values and property
to list.
