and will return to Lincoln Sunday morning.
C-overnor Toynter is engineering his own
ranipnlgn without any aid or assistance from
tho fusion state central committees. Ho
arranges dates for speeches and does all
other work that concerns his candidacy.
Ttlvate Secretary Jewell Is at the head of
Ills campaign tt.ro ti and Is also working In
dependently of the state central committees.
I'llslonlotM Are .Not llaii.
The strained relations between the party
campaign managers and tho gubernatorial
candidate havo led many of the most proml
n nt fuslonUts In this county to regard the
success of their Btate ticket as very doubt
ful They believe that without absolute
harmony between the various parties anJ
the people of the dlff'rent nationalities and
tit didermt cla sea who have heretofore been
cHssllled under the general term "fusion
lsts," and especially the campaign managers,
their ticket will go down to defeat. Chair
man IMmlHlen of the populist state central
committee U giving his best etTorts to tho
work of the national committee and Chair
man 1. L. Hall of the democratic stnto cen

his time to campaign work. Another dis

A prominent Dodge county populist and a

"There havo been romarkablo changes In
rionne county since Governor Toynter wns

well acquainted with the conditions nnd
have been Interested either directly or In
Jlrectly In every election that has taken
Mace there for the hist eight years. Last
rear'B vote showed a decrease for fusion
md there Is every Indication for believing
that there will bo n still greater decrease
thiF year. The people up there In lloono
rminty have been disappointed In their
governor. They expected great things of
Wllll.im A. Toynter when they sent htm
down to Lincoln two yeara ago. expected
him to do n lot of things that he of
rourse never could do If he was governor
for fifteen years. Hut they are disap
pointed nevertheless. Tho pardon of
Mills had a bad effect up there anil un
doubtedly lost him lots of otcs. I confi
dently believe that the entire Htate ticket
will be elected, but thero Is no use denying
the fnct that It will bo a mighty close shnvo

of various kinds for the Institute for Fee

proved today by Secretary of State Porter.
Treasurer Meserve and Deputy Commis
sioner Lynch. The vouchers will be pre
sented to Auditor Cornell as soon as he
returns to the ilty and If approved by hlra
warrants will be drawn on the general
fund in favor of Mr. Lang. According to
the agreement between lang and the Hoard
of Public Lands ami Uulldlngi he must
then turn the money received on tho war
rants back Into the cash fund of the Insti
tution at Heatrlrc. The action of the board
today Is entirely without precedent. The
records do not show that the expenditure of
the money belonging to the cash fund was
ever authorized, in fact several members
of the board unite In saying that It was
not authorized. With the claims for sup
plies was a voucher drawn by Mrs. H. F.
Lang for salary as matron of the Institu
tion. This claim bears the Indorsement
of Governor Toynter and was promptly al
lowed by the board. Explaining the en
dorsement of this claim Governor Toynter
said that he had agreed with Lang to
endorse his wife's claim,
"The Hoard of Tubllc Lands and Hulld
lngs no has nothing moro to do with the
Lang case." said Deputy Commissioner
Lynch. "We havo approved the claims
for supplies and havo no authority to tako
any part In the settlement with the state,
or rather with Dr. Deerlng, his successor.
Lang told us that he had enough cash to
make up the balance due the state and
wo suppose that he will make tho settle
ment with Deerlng as soon as he returns to
Heatrlcc."

Treasurer Mes'rvc announced that he

STORY OF GALVESTON STORM
Mrs. .Iiiiiicn ( lurk at I'mmnM Telln of
Her Kiiicrlriicr III the
I'loo.l.
FREMONT. Neb.. Sept. 14. (Special.)
Mrs. James Clark, a former resident of
this city, and her two daughters, who
survived the Galveston storm, arrived here
Sunday mornlnK nnd arc visiting with
friends until their home Is made habitable.
Mrs. Clark, who Is n fine appearing elderly
woman, shows plnlnly the effects of the
terrible nervous strain to which she was
subjected during the ten days she was
obliged to remain in the city after the
storm.
"My oxpcclencc during those awful dnys
Is something I don't like to talk about, '
she said to a representative of The Deo
this morning, "for It brings back to mo
thouo horrible sights which no human
tongue or pen can describe. I want to
forget them, but It is Impossible. We
were warned of the storm the morning of
the fith, but paid little attention to It,
thinking It only an unusually severe blow.
That morning I went down to the beach on
the car to Bee the storm. Tho waves were
running very high and destroying u good
many small bath houses, small shops nnd
temporary buildings. 1 went back to the
house nnd noticed then that tho wind was
Increasing and I heard rumors that the
water was coming up from the bay side of
the city. That afternoon I saw a large
cross on tho tower of a church near us
Hwnylng In the wind and there appeared to
bo much excitement on Hroadwny, the
Htreet where 1 lived, but even then I
didn't anticipate any trouble. About 4
o'clock my son drove up to the turn ho In
u brewtry wagon drawn by one lone mule
anil told us that the water was coming
up and we must leave. It was mining
fearfully hard and the wind was blowing
from the north. Mysolf and dAughters and
two other families got Into tho wngon and
wo started for the brewery, which we
thought wns the safest plnce. We were on
about the highest point of land In tho city,
but evfii here the waters of tbe bay and
gulf met and wo could see the waves com
ing up the streetR in both directions. When
wo got to the brewery our toam was just
about covered with water. My son carried
us In. Tho engine and boiler room was
tilled with water and we wont up on the
next floor. Thero wero then about 100
people there. They kept coming In all
night, until there were moro than 500 there.
How they got there I don't know, for the
water was everywhere. Wo could hear
nothing but tho roar of tho wind, the
splash of the waves and the crash of falling
buildings. Sunday morning we looked out
upon tho mass of ruins I can't descrlbo and
wouldn't if I could, It was so horrible.
We women and children stayed In the brew
ery until Monday noon.
"I found ray house hadn't suffered ns
badly as aorao others. One sidcwall was
completely gono. every window broken In
and everything in It ruined. Wo felt so
thankful to escape with our lives wo did
not enro for the loss. I have three sons
living In Onlveston and they nnd all their
families were saved. I think It was because,
we lived In tho highest part of tho city,
midway between the gulf nnd bay, and suc
ceeded In getting Into tho brewery before
the two bodies of water met. As you know
no effort was made to Identify the bodies of
the dead or to bury many of them. They
were either burned or carried out Into the
gulf The dead wagons or a good many
of them went past our house, so I couldn't
help but seo wagonlonds of bodies, men.
women and children, black and white, rich
nnd poor, being cnrrled out to be placed
on Brows and dumped Into the gulf. I
was at one of the city cemeteries last
week Tombstones were flat, cotllns were
washed out of graves, some of them heavy
metalle caskets, and lay there broken open
by the force of the storm
"There wna not n life lost In our block
nnd the damages to tho houses not as great
as in somo places. I don't believe there Is
a house In the city that escaped Injury
I left Oalveston Tuesday because tho hoalth
authorities fear fever and wanted all
women and children to leave, but 1 will go
bak there as soon as things get cleaned
up nnd it is safe, but I believe I shall nl

SERVICES AT CONFERENCE
Methodist Appointments Are Announced at
Gathering in Norfolk.
BISHOP MERRILL PREACHES ON SUNDAY
ink el nn the Theme for 1IU Discourse
the .Neeesnlty for Mrnilfnitne
In the Christian Life hiiiI lie
liter a HrllllMiit Addren.
NORFOLK, Neb . Sept. 24. Special.)
Services at the Methodist Episcopal church
yoMerday were as follows: At 0 a. m.
Rev. II. A. Harton led the conference love
feast. Gracious memories were revived ns
tho older members of this conference re
counted their early labors for Methodism
In this part of the state. Younger men
spoke of faith and determination for com
ing battles and by their courage betokened
coming victory.
At 10-30 the more format service be
gan with a sermon of great depth of
thought by Rishop Merrill. He took for
his text: "Quit you like men; stand fast
In the faith." The theme of the discourse
was the necessity of stendfastness In tho
Christian life. He said In part:
"The figure here used Is that of a hostile
army encamped In an enemy s country and
In great need of watchfulness and devoted
ncss to duty. Even so the Christian It
engaged In a continual conflict and should
uso all powers of soul and body In attain
ing steadfustness In his spiritual life.
This Is uetdful because of the many
tendencies In our surroundings calculated
to overthrow constancy In the divine life.
Such tendencies are the following: In
fluence of material or secular pursuits and
Interests; dangers of the educational forccj.
Everything around us Is n teacher and
may glvo us true or false impressions.
Hircln Ilea the danger from educational
forces. Education Itself is not to be do
crlcd, but fulse methods should be guarded
ngnlrist. Iluslness nnd social habits are
educative In their nature and wherein they
are of n wrong character can result only
In hnrm.
"In order to steadfastness there must
be faith In (lod's word, an experlenco of
personal salvation, n correct standard of
morals."

BROKEN ROW. Neb.. Sept. 24. (Special
TeUgram.) Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Lease de
dlvcred an eloquent address here this
evening to a large audience, making a
grand, successful and brilliant opening of
the campaign In this section of the county.
Tho meeting, which had only been adver
tised since last Thursday, was billed for
tho district court room, In which General
J. B. Weaver spoke a few days ago to an
audience of 130 people. This evening not
one-half tho people clamoring for admis
sion could get Instdo thu door and the
meeting had to be adjourned to the North
Side Opera house, which was packed and
people standing In tho hallway and side
rooms thnt could not II nd room Inside.
Fully 600 were present. People came twenty
and thirty miles.
Mrs. Lease spoke for nn hour and a
half, holding her audience lu strict atten
tion from the beginning while she discussed
tTie issues lu a forcible and eloquent man
ner, arraigning Bryan, Stevenson and the
democratic party, showing Brynn up as a
dismal failure ns a prophet and that every
step that had been tnken toward prosperity
and good government In tho history of this
nation had been taken by the republican
party nnd that, although Mr. Bryan proph
esied In 1S90 that If MLKlnley were elected
our Imports would far exceed our exports
nnd general disaster, calamity nnd the en
slavement of the Amcrlcnn peoplo would
follow, statistics show that during the
last three years of McKlnley's administra
tion our exports hnvo exceeded our Im
ports over ILOitO.OOii.uoo moro than those of
the previous 10" years nnd that general
good times nnd prosperity have followed
Sho asked the voters If they wanted to
change a certainty for an unknown quan
tity by voting for Brynn nnd Steenson?
Tho meeting was n success from stnrt to
finish and without a doubt means n gain
of many votes for republicanism and pros
perity in this county.
FUSI0NISTS OPEN CAMPAIGN

Hoiinc nt IIiiMIiikh to n
I'ronty Crowd,
HASTINGS. Neb., Sept. 24. (Special Tel
egram.) Tho fuslonlsts opened their cam
paign hero tonight with A. C. Shallen
berger of Alma, who spoke In the opera
houfcc. John Logan opened the meeting
by Introducing John C. Stevens, who pre
sided throughout the evening. In his open
ing address he said that during tho last
four years these United States had be
come more like an empire than a republic
and that the people were losing sight of
the Declaration of Independence.
.Mr. Shnlleubergcr began his address by
f-.pologtzing for making a prediction In this
city four years ago, which was to the
effect that William J. Ilryan would bo
elected at that time, but said that he had
only missed It four years. He then begun
to nppcal to the common people for votes
to send him to congress that he may rep
resent them In congress.
"Tho republicans do not hope to win
victory by nny argument that they can
advance, their only hope of gaining office
Is by a division of tho fusion forces," snld
Mr. Shallenberger. and then he began to tell
of tho necessity of having to stand shoulder
to shoulder If they expected to re-elect
Governor Poynter nnd put William J. Brin
into the presidential chair.
He compared Bryan to Washington nnd
Lincoln In statesmanship. Demosthenes nnd
Cicero In eloquence and said ho had the
form and figure of nn Adonis and was the
greatest leader of tho commonwealth the
wcrld has seen. The expansion question
wns somewhat evaded nnd only slightly
touched on. but Mr. Shnllcnborger devoted
much of his time to the trusts anil the
gold standard, which he says wns adopted
for tho sole Interests of tho corporations,
nnd strongly condemned tho present ad
ministration, which he said wns working
onlj for the money power.
Somehow the audience was frigid nnd
there was a lack of enthusiasm, as only
the occasional mention of Bryan's name
brought forth npplausc.

Woman's Burdens
nrc many. On every side they cry
out for relief. Hundreds have
come to believe that there is no
cure for the distressing ailments
that sap beauty and life.
This is an error. There is a
cure for everything. If one medi
cine does nol relieve, it is the
wrong one. This is simple com
mon sense.
Most womanly derangements
spring from congestion or n catarrh
al irritation of the mucous mem
brane lining the pelvic organs.
The lemedy whioh reaches, heals
and strengthens this delicate lining,
will .stop the weakening drains,
correct jurnul irregularities, heal
all iuaaLiiUution, and irritation.
Such a medicine is K-ru-na.
Hundreds of strong, healthy w.
men can testify to its wonderful
efficiency. It is just ns good for
the girl iu the teeiw as it is for lur
mother, and it will prove an excel
lent tonic for !xth.
l'e-ru-na is not an experiment.
Its result is not au uncertainty.
It lives up to its claims, and
faithfully used rarely fails to eftca
a permanent cure. u
A fair trial will prove thk.
