Joseph C Moore the Republican
nominee for the office of county judge
has been a resident of Red Willow coun
ty for twenty fiye years and needs no
introduction or word of commendation
from The Tribune or anyone else for
that matter and yet it is always a pleas
ure to endorse an honest upright cap
able nominee for office Such Joseph C
Moore is The office of county judge
one of the most important in the county
will be in safe and honorable hands
when Joe Moore assumes its duties next
January An upright active residence
in our midst of a quarter of a century
guarantees it Besides his character
qualifications he has the mental and
clerical capacities to fulfill the duties of
county judge faithfully and efficiently
Give him a large vote next Tuesday
Your confidence and franchise will not
be misplaced
To The Voters of Red Willow County
As the candidate of the Populist and
Democratic parties for sheriff of Red
Willow county I find myself owing to
the unusual demand for mechanics un
able to make a personal canvas of the
county I therefore place my candi
dacy in the hands of my friends and as
sure them that in case I am elected sher
iff of this county I will conduct myself
and the office in such a manner that no
man will have reason to regret his sup
port given me Holding the views I do
that a pass given to a public official is a
bribe I shall under no circumstances
accept a pass from any railroad in case
I am elected and it is tendered me 1
was born in this grand state educated
in it and while I am proud of Nebraska
and her institutions I would be prouder
were her public servants unfettered in
the discharge of their duty to their
state by the abolishment of the pass
evil I am willing to court defeat on
this issue Respectfully yours

We have The Mettle of the Pasture
a late book by James Lane Allen author
of The Choir Inivisible A Kentucky
Cardinal AlthoughThe Mettle of the
Pasture is in all its course eminently
characteristic of Mr James Lane Allen
its opening will seem to the average
novel reader distinctly original The
heroine is presented to us on the evening
when having received her sweethearts
letter avowing his love she awaits his
coming prepared to bestow upon him
her heart and hand without reserve
They have loved each other long and
this is the natural and expected culmi
nation of their years of mutual devotion
He tells her presently that there is
something in his past life which he
must avow After a struggle with him
self to discover which is the mora wrong
to tell her which means to hurt her or
to keep his guilty secret He tells her
She shrinks from him aud escapes to
her room Rowans secret is not at the
time revealed to the reader who there
after follows first sad experience of
Isabel She feels that she has been
fearfully wronged and she resolves to
cut Rowan from the list of her friends
even from that of her acquaintances
Isabel is an orphan who has been
brought up by her grandmother The
projected marriage is the dearest wish
of this grandmothers heart The con
flict between the two souls in regard to
the matter the secret of which Isabels
will not reveal to her unscrupulous re
lation is wonderfully described At
seventy Mrs Conyers preserved the rosy
freshness the diplomacy the activity
the desire for social power of youth
and all the traits of the jungle The
description of her long course of un
scrupulous endeavor to wring Isabels
secret from her and then to find out
things from others which could be pieced
together brings out in all the stronger
relief the beauty and the nobility and
the exaltation of Isabels wonderfu
nature
This is only the beginning of the
story which thereafter involves more
and more people including old Judge
Morris into the creation of whose per
sonality the author has poured all the
love and passion of his nature In the
manner of its writing the story shows

UUT AND WIRE NAILS
METHODS BY WHICH THEY ARE
TURNED OUT IN VAST QUANTITIES
The Wire Nail Proces In Simple and
Almont Wholly Automatic While
the Cat Nail IroccHM Ik Lckh Auto
matic and Much Harder
The making of nails is one of the
oldest American as it is one of the
oldest English industries but in Great
Britain the greater part of the product
has been hand work in America ma
chine work
Of modern nails the wire or French
nails and the common cut nails are
made in quantities which far exceed
all other kinds The wire nails have
increased enormously in general use
during recent years but there are still
many purposes for which cut nails are
preferred
The process of making wire nails is
exceedingly simple and almost wholly
automatic A large reel or spool of
wire of a size equal to that of the
shank of the nail to be made feeds
forward at each revolution of the ma
chine a piece of wire equal to the
length of the nail and n fraction of an
inch more
This is seized firmly by clamps
which straighten while they hold it
and at the same time a pair of jaws
so cut the wire as to leave a sharp
point to the nail
Before the clamps let go their hold
a hammer the face of which is a die
strikes the other end of the- wire a
sharp blow which forms the head
The clamps have corrugated sur
faces not merely to hold the nail more
securely but to impress upon it a
series of ridges and depressions which
make it harder to draw out when
once driven home
The making of cut nails is less auto
matic and much harder Any one who
has seen a nailmaker at work will un
derstand the aptness of the old expres
sion to work like a nailer The iron
for cut nails is first rolled into sheets
the thickness of which is equal to the
thickness of the nail It is then cut
into plates as Avide as the nail is loug
and of such length as a man can han
dle conveniently say from fifteen to
twenty inches
The nail cutting machine is a heavy
compact piece of meclmnism not much
larger than a sewing machine before
which the nailmaker sits on a stool
It consists of but little more than a
pair of shears strong enough to cut
iron three eighths of an inch thick and
a heading hammer
Any one who will examine a cut nail
will find that the shank tapers not on
all four sides from the head as he may
have supposed but on two sides only
The other two sides are parallel It is
the neglect to notice this fact which
leads so many persons to start a nail
into wood in a way which splits it
From a small furnace near the ma
chine the nailmaker draws a plato
which has come to a dull red heat
Holding this by means of pinchers he
feeds the edge farthest from him to thu
jaws of the machine As they descend
they shear a tapering strip from the
edge This is seized by clamps which
hold it just long enough for the head
ing hammer to strike the blow which
forms the head and then drop it
Now if the nailer were simply
to push the plate forward again the
tapering character of the strip which
is sliced off would destroy the rectan
gular shape of the plate and the nails
would neither be of a length nor have
square heads and points To obviato
this difficulty the plate must be turned
over between every two nails that are
cut so that the head of the nail will
come alternately from one side of the
plate and from the other
This and it is the principal part of
the nailers work is done with a sim
ple turn of the wrist and the plate is
fed forward as before As the ma
chines run at considerable speed and
the flop must be accurately timed
in order that the end of the plate may
meet the shears at the right moment
and in the right place the difficulty
and the tiresome nature of a nail
makers work may be imagined Some
idea of it may be had by holding the
thick end of a shingle in a pair of
tongs and attempting so to turn it
with a single motion of the wrist that
alernate sides will lie uppermost on a
table
A good nailmaker will make from
two to four flops that is will cut from
two to four nails a second the smaller
nails of course being made more
rapidly than the larger ones As the
plate grows cool it is returned to the
oven to be reheated and another plate
takes its place
A nailinakers hands and arms al
ways show the character of his work
by the tremendous development of cer
tain special muscles and by callouses
which become as hard as horn
The common names of nails sixpen
ny eightpenny teupenny and so forth
are believed to be corruptions of six
pound eight pound and ten pound
names given in England to denote the
weight of one thousand of a given kind
of nails Sixpenny and eightpenny

PATRIOTIC OLE BULL
The GreatcNt Political Influence I
Modern Norway
Whht was it that made Ole Bull nv
dcnlably the greatest political influ
ence in the history of modern Norway
The riddle is easy to read Althoui3i
he voiced the peasants his own voice
was that of no peasant but one of th
most severely learned of European ut
terances His instrumental mastery
was complete and the technical diffi
culties of his compositions have left
them for the most part unperformable
But Mozart was his chosen theme
worshiped with such an ardor of con
secration that the whole range of his
works had for him no secret His
fame therefore was of that order that
opens all doors Statesmen and chief
captains like Bismarck and Von Moltko
were his intimates and he was their
confidant To world artists like Liszt
Chopin and Mendelssohn he was own
brother Indeed a curious physical
resemblance between Lisct and himself
led to many amusing contretemps on
this score And sovereigns diplo
matists and great nobles were all
proud to name him among their friends
In him then Norway had found one
who could stand for her in the highest
ranks of the nations learn for her the
secrets of statecraft and recover In
her behalf the trick of thinking like a
king For this is one of the losses en
tailed on a people who are governed
by foreigners from a foreign seat that
they forget to think of their country
as a whole the habit that Is the secret
of rulers
Yet it was only as a man and not
by any means as a politician that an
autocrat could claim the friendship of
the distinguished artist His own sov
ereign felt that he had cause for grave
offense when the news reached Stock
holm in 1S4S of his heading a pro
cession in Paris to present the Norwe
gian colors to Lamartiue But even
royal anger could not resist the good
stories told on the next visit and the
king stood biting his lip at the careless
bonhomie of Ole Bull as he turned
suddenly and said By the way sire
you should have been with us the other
day in Taris when we went to ac
claim Lamartiue Margaret E Noble

WOMENS WEAR IN WARTIME
Homemade Cloth of Many Kinds
Scruicd Horn For Hats
We had one cotton mill to spin the
warp The people stood in line to get
a bunch of cotton for warp The filling
was yarn cotton ilax and tow We
got our dyestuff from the forest It
was almost as bad on timber as the
tanbark trade is now There was great
rivalry among the women to see who
could have the prettiest dress I have
a quilt made of cotton and linen called
a Confederate quilt
The clothing for every member of the
family was made from the raw ma
terial carded spun woven dyed and
made with homespun thread
The tow linen cloth had one peculiar
ity It was a great stretcher It was
often exchanged for other things A
man and his wife startcJ to town with
cloth sufficient to get some articles On
the way he remembered he needed a
gimlet also He told his wife They
decided to tie the ends of the cloth
to two saplings he to stretch a gim
let out of it
I took great interest in the silk in
dustry We fed the worms on mul
berry leaves and such beautiful silk
we did have A bright stripe in a cot
ton dress made it very fine A family
made gloves beautiful silk mitts with
bees embroidered on the back Noth
ing went to waste The thorn trees
furnished us pins and hairpins Our
millinery was our crowning effort
Hats were made of cotton thread cro
cheted put on a block stretched very
stiff and ironed then wired We had
homemade flowers and all kinds of ma
terial for trimming A cloth frame
made stiff and covered with scraped
cows horn was much admired if it
did look like a cocoanut cake Char

This Stream Itnns Up Hill
One of the few instances of a stream
running up hill can be found in White
county Ga Near the top of a moun
tain is a spring evidently a siphon
and the water rushes from it with suf
ficient f orce to carry It up the side of
a very steephill for nearly half a mile
Reaching the crest the water flows on
to the east and eventually fiuds its
way to the Atlantic ocean Of course
it Is of the same nature as a geyser
but the spectacle of a stream of water
flowing up a steep incline can probably
be found nowhere else In the country
and appears even more remarkable
than the geysers of the Yellowstone
