Senator Allen has done more for the state of Nebraska than auy other sena tor the state has had Ed Clarke for county attorney and N D Jackson for state attorn ey What a beautiful combination thai is Hereafter when one wishes to speak of small bore politics it will be butter ine politics instead of peanut poli tics A vote for Mutz and Shore is a vote for honest able men It is a vote for good government and business methods in our state institutions We heard someone remark the other day that the reason it was called the golden rule was because only one per son in sixteen lived up to it This is a republican year shouts the Ainsworth Star Journal and then it tells how happy Brown county far mers are to get 42 cents for their wheat Go to the polls early and see that your neighbors go too Dont neglect or forget to vote Your vote is but one but many mickles make anickle and many men have been elected by one vote If you love your children and want to see them educated vote the fusion ticket The appropriation for our pub lic schools has more than doubled since the present state administration has been in power The only meeting the republicans had advertised for this place fell through because the managers were afraid to have their speaker appear here where people know him We are sorry he was called off This paper has tried to make a clean fight against Ed Clarke and therefore has refrained from saying anything against his moral character which is notoriously bad Wonder if Ed will thank us for this forbearance A merchant is not considered pros perous unless he is making good profits regardless of the size of his stock but a farmer is always supposed to be pros perous when he has a big crop regard less of the price he gets for it Those who failed to attend th3 meet ing last Friday night or who failed to ask Senator Mutz for anv information desired have no kick coming if his talk did not suit them A public speaker is not necessarily a mind re d er Republicans will please paste this in their hat Uy its silence last week the republi can admits that our charges against Ed Clarke are true Keep it before you that Ed Clarke ribbed up a case against a citizen bamboozled the coun ty then took a fee from the man he had got into trouble and had the costs of the case taxed to the county The Methodist and other churches in their wisdom take repentant sinners into the fold on probation for six months or so ere they are admitted to full membership Politicians who have disgraced the uselves and their party should be kept out of office sev eral years uon probation Many a man has given out the word that lie has reformed for a purpose and as soon as the purpose was accomplished the reform ended Paste this in your hat W II Reynolds republican candi date for state senator gave away his plan of campaign when he told a promi nent democrat of this district that he had not yet seen adeinocrat who would not vote for him until that- time Evi dently Mr Reynolds has been fighting shy of democrats during the campaign because this paper has yet to hear of a democrat who will not siqiport Mutz As has been pointed out by this paper the whole republican campaign in this section of the state is based upon the stheory that democrats will not support their ticketanu that is where the gop managers make a mistake Democrats are loyal to their party and their prin ciples and when they vote the republi can ticket it will be for causes which do not exist this year Perhaps Mr Reynolds will explain why he failed to deliver the goods bargaiuedfor when he made a trade with certain Dawes cOtinty flttiOcrats a fewyra agot - - f f Voters in fne west part of the county should not overlook A IT Metzgor when they come to commissioner lie is a splendid business man one of the heaviest tax payers in the count- and has tlie interests of his district at heart A vote for Metzger is a vote for good county government While the Republican was telling about defalcations in this state and the consequent loss to tax payers it should J have stated that after giving credit for all sums recqvered the republicans still owe the tax -payers 1136344 No wonder the people dont want any more of the g o p in this state Since the incumbency of Auditor Cor nell every cent that has come into the oifice for abstracts and for certifying to copying of records has been placed on the books and turned into the state treasury as it should be but there is not a line or a scratch of the pen in the records to show that the republicans ever did anything but shove all such fees down into their own pockets with never so much as by your leave to the state The democrats in congress forced the president to quit talking and go to war Now the silly cuckoos want democrats defeated as an endorsement of the ad ministrations war record Thats gall for you And if the democrats are de feated it will be said to be endorsing the president before he was forced to begin the war or what the democrats compelled him to do If that isnt mixing issues what is Delphos 0 Courant rep We have yet to find a man who is opposed to John Shore for representa tive because he believes John is not qualified for the place He is known far and wide as an honest upright and conscientious man a man of ability commanding presence and sound busi ness sense He very probably would not make an eloquent speech but in a straight forward businessl ke and commanding manner he can present his side of a case in such a way that all the eloquence of a Bryan would find it hard to change the effect of his words That is the kind of a man we want in the legislature not a man of wind but of brains Dont let republicans fool you on the plea of only one vote anyhow and old friends A burned child should dread the fire and a voter who has been a victim of misplaced confidence should know better than to again assist his betrayer to office It is a well known fact that during the years 1898 and 1897 the prosecuting attorney of this county never went into court with a case fully prepared A few days be fore court he would hustle around in good shape trying his cases on the street corners and then would trust to what he himself called his fool luck for a conviction Fool luck is a good thing to have but it is not that quality in a man that the tax payers pay 5650 a year for Dr J S Romine and II M Wilson two prominent sheep men of Chadron have just purchased a flock of blooded sheep said to be the finest herd in the state They purchased a car load of Garner thoroughbred registered ram bulet sheep at auction in Omaha last week paying as high as 235 a head for some of them Gordon Journal Hall Graham shipped a lot of cat tle to Alliance last Friday and disposed of them as follows One hundred cows and calves to Walter Reed 150 steers to Swan Ilufty 103 steers to Zed Goodwin Jr 150 cows and calves to Wm Watkins In a wreck last week near Mullen they lost 100 head of steers for which they have put in a claim at 40 per head Alliance Grip One carload of Galloway bulls ar rived here Thursdav from Brookside Farm Fort Wayne Indiana in charge of Mr A Forbes for the PF Company who are stocking up with the best stock of this kind that can be had on the American continent The-Brook-side being the largest farm of this kind that we know of and especially with the present new manager Mr John Bass Jr it is destined to even surpass the best in its line Harrison Press John Neiss one of Rosebuds most prominent stockmen was in town Sunday with 12 young full blood Short Horn bulls and two Cruikshank heifers Everybody is acquainted with the Short Horn type of cattle and these bulls were splendid specimens of their kind They made a cattlemans eyes glisten just to look at them These were purchased of the same man who sold to J W Stetter but came from another herd The heifers were beau ties large dark red well setup and intelligent looking The breed is some what of a novelty in this section of tlie country but we believe it will become popular We are pleased to note Mr Neiss1 enterprise in pnrchasing this lot of registered stock and hope his spirit of improvement will be emulated by others Everett Brown says The dressed beef concerns for the present at least have determined to carry as light stock of beef in their refrigerators as they can possibly get along with PreVious years experience has taught them that it is decidedly unprofitable to carry large stocks of high priced beef into the Thanksgiving season to compete with the iloods of poultry and game annually marketed at about that time It is vividly apparent to any close ob- server of the market that buyers are pursuing a handto moutli policy and8 that stocks of beef are unusually light The course of the future markets 3vill depend largely on the price that corn sells at as any in the price of that cereal will have a ten dency to force in cattle ahead of the time they naturally would be shipped and will also cause cause a slackening of the demandand a probable -reduction in prices of feeding cattle as cattle feeders Avill think twice before they I pay high prices for both cattle and fcgiart t
