There is not the least doubt
who will be the successor of
Judge R C Orr It will be
Judge E B Perry If he will
work as hard for the election as
did for the nomination his op
ponent will not know he is in the
race Trenton Leader
It is estimated that the recent
floods and storms cost Frontier
county 25000 in damages to the
bridges and roads The county
commissioners have just authoriz
ed the building of ten new bridg

The Nonpareil is not one of
the insurgents that hopes Presi
dent Taft will make some monu
mental blunder It should be re
membered that he is president of
the United States and that when
he makes a blunder the people of
the United States will have to
suffer for it It cannot be denied
that he has had what the sport
ing writers call a reversal of
form in the past few months and
is now apparently aligned with
the progressives with the reac
tionaries howling at his heels It
has taken him a long time to see
the lirht imd it may take much
longer before we know that he
lias really had a revelation of his
real dutv but if he continues to
show as much courage and good
sense in the next few months as
he- has in the past six the senti
ment will run largely in his di
rection President Taft has by
no means been satisfactory and
the early blunders of his admin
istration are hard to forget but
the course he is pursuing just
now will come as near as any
thing he could do towards mak
ing people forget his mistakes

A MISDIRECTED PROTEST
Governor Aldrichs protest
against the extravagant out
lay of candidates for office for
newspaper advertising is treated
at length in a most serious vein
by the Lincoln Journal Unfor
tunately the Journal misses the
real point What the office seek
ers object to is not newspaper ad
vertising but paid for newspaper
advertising Every one of them
wants all the newspaper adver
tising he can get for nothing in
fact seems to be imbued with the
idea that the only purpose of a
newspaper is to boost for candi
dates for office and give them
space which others would be re
quired to pay for at regular ad
vertising rates
Another thing overlooked is tin
fact that candidates do not pat
ronize the newspaper advertising
columns out of motives of gener
osity or charity but because it is
the cheapest and most effective
way to get the publicity neces
sary to call attention of the vot
ers to their claims and promises
Th eonly alternatives are per
sonal visits and individual letters
The visits are out of the ques
tion to send letters to 50000 peo
ple would cost 1000 for postage
alone where more than that num
ber of voters can be talked to
every day for a month by an ad
in The Be at a small fraction of
that amount
Money spent by candidates on
lgitimate newspaper advertising
needs no excuses or apologies

GIVE CREDIT WHERE DUE
It has always been our aim to
give credit for worthy motives
whenever performed On the vote
of passing the reduced tariff on
wool over the presidents veto
Congressman Norris voted to pasj
it the only one of Nebraskas re
publican congressmen to stand
by the people We take our hat
off to Norris Lincoln Star
Congressman Norris was the
only republican congressman
from Nebraska who stood FOR
and BY the people and voted to
pass the bill for tariff reduction
in spite of the presidents veto
Every democratic congressman
from Nebraska voted to place
woolen clothing within the reach
of the men and women whom
they were elected to represent

A QUAINT CITOYENNE
DRESS
No matter what the type or
style of a woman there is no ex
cuse for wearing an unbecoming
model at present There are so
many different features that it
is possible for everyone to wear
something entirely new without
looking like her neighbor
To generalize on the present
fashions it might asfly bee said
that history repeats itself In
every new model some features
W4 iOk
Ladies Home Journal Pattern No

can be found the origin of which
dates back a hundred or more
years There is a note of quaint
ness about the fashionable wo
mans clothes which is becom
ing and picturesque If the av
erage woman will spend a little
time and thought upon what she
is to wear she can easily look as
well as her sister with a large
flrpsc llnvflTii It is miitp Tins-
-x x
sible to make any of the new
modes in very inexpensive mater
ial and have it look as well as a
high priced imported model
The illustration shows one of
the popular new models the mot
if for which was taken from the
time of the Frneeh Revolution It
is a dainty little frock developed
in a cream cotton voile with ruf
fles of wide valenciennes lace in
a pale ecru and headed with lace
heeding threaded with black vel
vet ribbon The ruffles on the
sleeves and at the Citoyenne
waist were of matching lace in a
narrower width and the pretty
draped fichu was of a fine net
held together with tiny flat bows
of black velvet It is an appro
priate design for an afternoon
frock and might be easily de
veloped in a cotton marquisette
silk mull or in fact any thin ma
terial
