HJ Yon want a competent , an up-
Bf right , an experienced judge on the
El supreme bench. Judge A' M. Post
H is able , is honorable , has had the
Hf valuable experience. He deserves
K your vote.
HS Colonel Phillips thinks that
21 Colonel Mitchell has been waiting
Bjl for the Populists to put up some
El white metal before he opens up the
Hjl campaign rather than till he could
H ' see the whites of Eepublican eyes.
H A vote for O. L. Thompson is
H just that much toward assuring
H | the election of a man who is well
fl Hj equipped to give Bed Willow
HB * county a business-like admimstra-
H § tion of its financial matters. An
m X will do the business.
H B At the eleventh hour Colonel
H Mitchell began to realize that
KJ sheriff sales and- probate notices
H | are substantial sources of revenue ,
HHj and a "good thing" to have in his
H | business , so he said a faint word
H of praise for "Honest John" and
H "Ike the Just. " And then his
H can-opener got out of whack again ,
H and Dick's and Berge's campaign
B J will have to go over till next year.
Hfl We violate no confidence in sug-
n gesting that the Colonel is a sultry
B numeral.
Hh Already 131 leading articles of
HH - trade are under the control of
H trusts , and every branch of indus-
Bj try seems to be in danger of re-
Hj moval from the realm of competi-
H tion. Just where this tremendous
H centralization of industry and ;
H wealth will end no one seems to i
H know , and the idea of dealing with !
H it is appalling. A great trust of ;
B the people , administered through
Hj the government , appears to be the
H ! only adequate remedy.
R America's greatest editor , C. A.
B Dana of the New York Sun , was
B as thoroughly detested for his
K principles as he was admired for
Hj * his unequaled brilliancy : A defen-
H der of Tweed was the Sun until
Hj the sublime old rascal became ab-
B solutely indefensible ; a supporter
Hj of Ben Butler and greenbackism ;
Hj and long the organ of Tammany
H and its infamy ; a checkered career
H of glory and shame greets the his-
H j torian. From Tammany to Boss
Hf Piatt ! . From greenbackism to the
H single gold standard ! Hewasin-
HE sincerity in the highest.

The office of county judge is
Bteadily increasing in importance.
G. S. Bishop is qualified as a lawyer -
yer and clerically for all the grow
ing duties of the office.
The proper care of the unfortu
nate dead , or any of the possible
duties of coroner , would receive
the attention due it from Joseph
Spotts. Don't forget his X.
A progressive , energetic and
intelligent officer is needed at the
head of our county schools. An X
after the name of C. N. Whittaker
will help to secure that result.
The Indianola Beporter has it
figured out that the McCook Cour
ier neither molds nor reflects.
Just wait , Mr. Phillips , until Mr.
Mitchell opens up the campaign ?
One of the sterling young men
of Bed Willow county is A. F.
Beeves. The office of county sur
veyor would be in good hands by
his election. Place an X where it
will do the most good.
Colonel Phillips of the In
dianola Beporter is authority for
the statement that a McCook at
torney is laying the pipes for the
judicial nomination , two years
hence. Is it an oil line , Jasper ?
Some of the Popnlist leaders
say that Colonel Mitchell is wait
ing to see the whites of the enemy's
eyes before he delivers a broad
side. It is more likely he is wait
ing to see the white metal in the
pockets of his friends. Indianola

Just to let the railroads know

Couldn't Hear the Music
Colonel Burr of Virginia was a
mighty fox hunter and loved the sport
beyond words. He owned a fine pack of
hounds , and , during the season , thought
of nothing but his hunters , his dogs ,
and the weather. He was once enter
taining an army friend from Texas ,
whose ideas of hunting any animal in
volved the'use of firearms , and who had
never seen a foxhound. He had been
with difficulty persuaded to go forth
one morning with the colonel and some
friends to a meet , and they were wait
ing impatiently for the hounds to take
the scent. Presently there burst upon
their listening ears tbe din of SO canine
voices in full cry. The colonel's eyes
gleamed , and , as he settled his feet in
the stirrups and stretched his arm to
ward the yelping pack , he cried , "Ma
jor , listen to that heavenly musiol"
The major pricked up his ears for a second
end or two and then replied , "I can't
hear a thing ; these d d dogs are mak
ing suoh a noise. " The colonel put his
spur savagely into his horse's side and
dashed away , leaving his guest to his
own devices. San Francisco Argonaut.
Was No Seaman.
"There is a great difference between
the seafaring man of today and of 30
years ago , " said the man of many voy
ages. "Formerly the seafaring man was
a sailor , full of energy and the spirit of
adventure that was the particular charm
of Marryat's heroes , but now the man
who follows the sea for a living , espe
cially on one of the big ships , is noth
ing more than a paint swab.
"This is not any fault of thp men ,
but because of the changed conultions
which have left no sailor's work to do. .
Cleaning ship is the principal employ
ment of the modern so called seaman.
"One day a young woman novelist ,
in crossing the ocean on a big liner ,
asked an ancient mariner who was en
gaged painting a ventilator how long
he had been a seaman.
" 'Sailor , mum ? Bless yer heart , I'm
no sailor ; ' and then , glancing again at
his work , 'I'm no sailor ; I'm a bloomin
artist , I amNew York Journal.
A Yale Prank.
The Hartford Conrant tells a story of
Yale in the old days. The boys used to
bribe the printers' "devils" togetproofs
of the examination papers for them.
When the college authorities put a stop
to this practice , a bright idea seized one
fellow , and he saved the whole suffering
party. He hired one of the printers ( it
was summer ) to wear a pair of white
trousers to the office and at noon to sit
down on the form in which were lockf :
the precious questions. The inky seat ot
that pair of trousers sold for a deal more
than the clothes were worth in their
original spotlessness and .relief was se
cured.

of the wheat , while the hessian fly lays

renders the flower abortive , while the j
injury done by the latter affects the

CHIEF CAUSE. ' 1
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is I
the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the I
womb , like the bladder , was created for one
purpose , and if not doctored too much is not I
liable to weakness or disease , except in rare I
cases. It is situated back of and very close to *
the bladder , therefore any pain , disease or inconvenience - M
convenience manifested in the kidneys , back , . |
bladder or urinary passage is often , by mistake -
take , attributed to female weakness or womb f I
trouble of some sort. The error is easily made '
and may be as easily avoided. To find out I
correctly , set your urine aside for twenty-four
hours ; a sediment or settling indicates kidney fl
or bladder trouble. The mild and extraordi- fl
nary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root , . I
