T KT us show you the Certificate of
'Authenticity Messrs. Collins and
Harlan have signed. This is the out
standing fact which comes to you out
of the memorable tone-test recital
(jiven last Monday evening at the
Parmele Theatre: A new era of music
is here. Mr. Edison has lifted the
phonograph to the dignity of a new
art.
You can no longer be satisfied with a phonograph that
imitates. Now you want a phonograph that equals the
human voxe.
You know there is such a pl.onograph. Mr. Edison
made an astonishing test with the Official Laboratory Model
of the NVw Edison to prov'e it. Plattsmouth heard the New
EJison Re-Create the voices of Messrs. Collins and Harlan
in direct comparison w'th their living voices. So realistic
was the New Edison's performance that no one in the entire
audience could distinguish it from the living voices of
Messrs. Collins and Harlan.

which triumphed in the tone-test. Let us show you the
Certificate of Authenticity, which Messrs. Collins and Harlan
have signed, after inspecting these instruments, and in
which they declare that tiese instruments are the equals in
every lespect of the instrument used in the tone-test.

Tre republican county central
committee met this morning in the
equity court room at the court house
and after the preliminaries had been
disposed of, got down to business
and filled the vacancies which exist
ed because of the resignation of A.
A. Wetenkamp. who had been regu
larly nominated as a candidate for
commissioner from the first district,
and by reason of no qualified nomi
nee being named through the medium J
of the primary for the position oi"
countv assessor.
To fill the vacancy on the ticket
caused by the resignation of Mr.
Wetenkamp. George L. Farley pres
ent incumbent in the assessor's posi
tion, was selected and will according
ly be voted upon as a candidate for
that office at the November election.
No action was taken, however, rela
tive to naming a candidate for coun
to assessor, which position can not
be held successive terms by any one.
Win. Atchison who was appointed
recently to serve as commissioner
from the third district until the
holding of the fall election, was al
so named as a candidate to fill out
the unexpired term, ending a year
from next January 1st.
This completes the republican
county ticket with the exception of
the county assessorship for which it
is doubtful if anyone will be nominated.

lican party. John Adams and Mrs.
