HELP swell W. K. Starr's major

shape.
THE stars and stripes now float
in Havana , and many coast wise
vessels of the PhilJipiues have also
unfurled the stariy emblem of lib
erty.
THEY do say that Colonel Bryan
is consumed with desire to get
home and look after his political
fences , and contemplates resigning
in order to do so.
REMEMBER a Republican United
States senator is involved , and vote
for Dr. J. E. Hathorn for repre
sentative. He will be a credit to
Red Willow county.
THE mortality in General Lee's
corps of 30,000 men at Jackson
ville has been much below the
average of military camps. In
871 cases treated iu one division
hospital between July and Septem
ber there was a total of twenty-
seven deaths. The figures are a
remarkable contrast with the sen
sational stories set afloat.
FOR the first time since 1883
the postoffice department expects to
realize a small profit. The receipts
are expected to reach § 100,000-
000. While the largest sum in
the past has been § 82,000,000.
The government expects to realize
in the neighborhood of § 5,000,000
profit , this year , a fact largely
traceable to the economical and
careful management of the depart
ment.
THE pops blow a good deal
about the old soldiers , and their
candidate for congress in this dis
trict is going to make his cam
paign upou the efforts he made in
the pension department in their
behalf. The republicans have
nominated an old soldier for their
candidate. He is a splendid man ,
too : a man against whom not a
word of ill can be truthfully spok
en. He is an able , substantial ,
successful man , practical iu busi
ness , honorable in his methods , is
polished in his manner and is in
close touch with the people among
whom he lives. He will make an
ideal congressman for the Fifth
district. Mindeu Gazette.

To My Farmer Friends.
I wish to say to you , beware of those
stove peddlers that are going through
the country loaning steel ranges and
taking receipts for them , for those re
ceipts will all turn out to be notes , for
that was done in Illinois , where I came
from , and I would advise all farmers tenet
not let-those sharks talk jou into leaving
a stove in your house. I found I could
do better at my home dealers.
Yours respectfully ,
A. PRENTICE.
