Tho object l.s to educate I ho people
as to the true relation of this pest to
the wollfaroof the human family. A
vivid illustration on canvas will do
moru to eliminate the lly than nil the
lectures delivorod by scientists. As a
spreader of disease tho lly has all other
agencies distanced a country block.
It has boon estimated that should
tho ily bo done uway with tho average
Hfo would bo prolonged ton years.
Wo want to live that much longer and
have enlisted us a volunteer in the
growing urmy of lly destroyers.
A fow yours B() tho city employed a
surveyor to establish regular grades
for streets mill sidewalks which lias
resulted in much bcnetlt to the city.
Why not take another step and
adopt u permanent policy for grading
streets? Information is to be had fot
iho asking from tho government and
a little time given to our particular
needs is about all that is necessary for
installing a permanent policy.
One plan of grading stioota carried
out for a period of ton years would
make a vast imprivcmeiit in the ttp-
ncaianco of this city. Tho trouble!
now is that no one knovv.s when lie will
be called upon to 1111 a city olllco and
by thu time ho learns a few things he
is succeeded by somu ono else and so
it goes. No ono policy is followed
long enough to bo of lasting bonelit.
This is poor business and ought to bo
remedied. Street grading is a trade
and such work ought to be performed
under the diiectiou and rules of that
trndo.
lly all menus let us start the new
year right by establishing permanent
policy for tiiu mniutanco of our streetw
and alleys.

Illed Oyt'owlos ami supported liy Itluu
Hill and iihnlen asking not for re-ar-l.ingeuiont
ol the plan for running
the tiains hut foi Hotter service and
Red Cloud has been with them front
tho start. This is tho county seat nud
residents in thu north part of the
county aro entitled to a quick and con
venient method or reaching this city,
hed Cloud is more concerned in tho
wolfnro or Webster County than in
I'Vanklin or Hastings. Merchants
here feel that a morning train from
Orleans might bring more trade owing
to the fact, that this is tho largest place
between McL'ook and Hastings but
home interests are first and Webster
County must receive Hist consider
ation. If the train leaves Hastings in tho
morning ami loturns in the evening
all of tho residents from Cowlos to
Campbell could transact their business
here and return thu sumo day.
What tho cities along this route
want is what ought to be had ami any
activity along that lino will bo warm
ly aided by thu people of Red Cloud
regardless ol' King Edward or the
litirgomoistorof some Gorman village.
It Is immaterial whether that par
ticular train leaches Orlenus. Oberlin
or tho Sandwich Islands so long as
tho people who have Illed their com
plaint receivo tho right kind of service.
LINCOLN LETTER
Lincoln. Nkiiii., March 1- (Special
Correspondence.) The Democratic
.students at tho University of Nobraska
hnvo taken preliminary steps looking
towards tho organization of a demo
cratic olub, and the first meeting to
discuss tho matter was an eye-opener
becnuso of tho numbers present and
tho onthusiasm displayed. The club
will bo organized and perfected bofore
the close of the University year, and
will be in fiuo shape to perform activo
service in Cbo interests of democracy
durlug the coming campaign.
The republican bureau for the (lis
8emlultion f misinformation with
headquarters at Lincoln, continues
actively ut work. One of its chief ob
jects is to misinform tho public ns to
tho actions of the governor. It is
constantly trying to convinco tho
public that the govoruor is neglecting
tho stato's business in order to travel
around. 1 1 is true that Governor Shall
enberger is absent from tho otllcemore
than was ids immediate predecessor,
but (lovernor Shallenherger is attend
ing to vnstly more business than iny
of liis predecessor. Ueing it business
man lie is able to transact business
more speedily than any of his prede
cessors, and his tinvnly Imvn linnn
forced upon him by tho wonderful
growth of the state. He has lectured
on the university extension course,tid
dressed farmers' institutes and ap
peared before gatherings of business
men hold for the purpose of consider
ing how best to conserve and promote
tho wolfnre of tho state. While Gov
ornor Shollenbergor has traveled moro
than any other governor Nebraska has
over hod, ho is also better informed ns
to thu state's needs and is hotter nolo
to judgu ns to what should or should
not be done to ndvnnco tho stato's best
Interests
i Republicans in the First Congress-
1 ional district arc in n sad muddle.
Thoro arc a dozen aspirants for tho
nomination, and all aro in a lighting
mood. Will Hnyward, K. II. Pollard,
Judgo Frost, Judgo Field and F. M.
Tyroll are leading candidates. So far
thoro 1ms been no opposition dovelopod
towards the re-nomination of John A'
Moguire by the democrats. In tho
Sccoud everybody seems to bo waiting
to see what Congressman Hitchcock
will do. Horry Fleharty says -be will"
bo a candidate if Hitchcock decides to
I be a candidate for senator. Tho repuu
J licans are waiting on the Ilitclioock
decision, well knowing it would lo1
folly to try and beat Iho popular con
gressman in case he decides to ioun n
in tho lower house. In tho Thiid
Edgnr Howard is likely to contest witli
Congressman Latta for (denomination,
and to date there has been little talk
of republican candidates. In thu
Sloan of Geneva will probably be the
republican candidate, in pursuance of
nu agreement made with lliushaw two
yearn ago. S. L. Mains, food commiss
ioner, and Judge Stark, former con
gressman, aro mentioned undemocratic
candidates. Fred Ashton of (.hand
Island and R. I). Sutherland of Nelson,
will probably llio f.ir tho democratic
nomination in the Filth and will con
test with Judge Xorrls pioviding
Norrls does not doeido to got into tho
s. nalorial fight. In llio "Rig SI.nMi"
Uncle Moso Kinluiiil has his work out
out for him. Tho lovolation of Unol
Moso's connection with tho Alaska
laud gratis lias miiilo Undo Moso
squirm, nud tho way ho is trying to ex
plain crouton a lot of laughter. Sliinn
way of SooUsI'liiil' and Taylor of Cus
ter have announced themselves us
oandidiites for tho democratic nomi
nation, and cither of them would pmb
ably retire Uncle Moso to private life.
Tithe as a whole Iho outlook for an in
creased democratic representation in
rongres is far blighter than usual.
I'rol'e-sor ( rabtroo lias not yet re
signed, as demanded by the eminent
republican politicians who lesent tho
idea that a state institution should not
bo run as an annex to the g. o. p.
Eminent legal authority declares that
the governor has a right to oust an ap
pointive odlecr at any time, but Gover
nor SliallenberKet' has not yet taken
this phase of the matter into consider
ation. In thu meanwhile the repub
lican partisans who played such a
coarso political game in the Peru Nor
mal School case are being roundly
cursed by their own party associates.
Tho Rtireau of Labor and Industrial
Statistics is busy these days supplying
tho domauds for farm help. During
the last six weeks not less than 'Joo
farmers have been supplied with help,
and something like 300 men have se
emed jobs through tho bureau. So
far, however, tho demands for help
have exceeded the supply.
"Test your seed corn!" is tho cry to
day. It. has been demonstrated that
less then !t() per cent, of thu corn raised
hifct year is lit for sued. The early
opening of winter caused a lot of tho
corn to icmaiu in the fields and a lot
of it yet remains tinliusked. This com
is not showing up well in tho seed
tests and it behooves farmers to bo
very careful in selecting their seed
corn tills spring.
James Samuel Dcakln
.lames Samuel Dcakiu was born in
Shrewsbury. England on July 7th,
1875, and passed away on Friday even
ing, February S5tht 1910.
His early education was received in
one of tho Shrewsbury public schools.
Ho very early evinced artistic ability
and won several prizes at tho School
of Art and Science in his native city.
In 18S9 ho came with the family to
this country and in 1893-4 ho took a
course in pen -art work under Prof.
Wallace at tho Western Normal Lin
coln, Nebr. Since that time he has
held responsible positions as draughts
man with the Molinc Plow Co., and
the Kacine-Sattley Co., Spririgilold,
111. For sometime previous to his final
illness lie had been draughtsman and
designer in the public Park's depart
ment Kansas City, Mo.
On June 20th, 1003 he was united in
marriage with Miss Alta Tysor, In
Holyoke, Mass.
The happy pair were blessed with
two boys James Samuel jr., and Fred
William who, with their devoted moth
er survive to mourn tlioir loss.
James and his wife united with thu
First Congregational church in Spring
Held, 111., in l'M, and on moving to
Kansas City in 1007 placed their letters
in the Prospect a vonuc Congregational
church, where tlic-y have since remain
ed. Here lie becanio an active worker
and had a class in the Sunday School.
l'arly in October last, James hud an
nttuck of la grippe from the cil'outs of
which lie never fully recovered. After
taking medical treatment In Kansas
City, ho finally decided to try Cowlcs
for a time, in tho hope that the change
might prove beneficial. The result
was not satisfactory. All that medical
skill, and lovlpg care could do proved
unavailing. Tliut such n promising
life and such it loving union should be
so early ended is u mystery wo canuot
solve, but "wo know that all things
worlc toguthcr for good to them that
love Qod."
The funeral services were held
February 27th at 3 p. m., in tho Con
gregational church at Cowlcs and worn
in charge of tho Ilov. A. A. Crcssmnn
pastor of the Congregational church of
Hed Cloud, who proauhed a sermon of
great comfort to the beroaved from
tho toxt 1 John 2:2r.
The funeral was largely attended and
the iloral offerings wore beautiful, and
gave unmistakable evidouco of tho
esteem aud loving friendship in which
tho deceased and his family is held.
This paper 'joins with the many
friends of the bereaved in extending
most heartfelt sympathy in this their
hour of great alMlctlon and bereave-mnt
