The greatest rally of the campaign was
held here Friday. A large :nt was erecteJ
in the court house square and by early tore-
noon teams began to arrive from every quar-
ter. Men. women and children laid aside
their "ork and devoted a full day listening
to good republican doctrine. The Ilepub-
llcan City band and the Naponee Drum ccrps
furnished muslo for tho occasion, Purlng
the afternoon the targe tent was filled to
overflowing and for over two hours Gen-
eral J. Warren Kelfer of Ohio hld the
audience spellbound as he expounded re-
publican truths and exposed Brynite fat-
iacles.
In the evening the crowd was even larger I
than during the day. The McKlnley anJ
Roosevelt Marching club of Bloomlngton
gave an exhibition drill which ellclud ap
plause on every hand. Adam McMuIlcn, a
Nebraska university boy. now In the Treas
ury department at Washington, D. C, first
addrr-itcd the meeting and In a few well
chosen remarks advised young men casting
their first vote to cast It In support of the
party progress, prosperity and patriotism.
The Bloomlngton quartet rendered several
elections, which were warmly applauded.
The closing address of the day was made
by Hon. W. S. Summers of Omaha. For
two hours and a half he dealt body blows to
tho fusion forces, routing them on every ,

He handled the question Of imperialism

demonstrated that all laws ever passed for

It was a great day for the republicans of
Franklin county. Many populists were In
attendance at both the afternoon and even
tng meetings and the earnest attention given
by them to the speakers showed that they
must be convinced of tho truth of the argu
ments. Much good will certainly result
from the meetings. The republican organ!

thousand people stood out ln a cold, biting
wind for thirty minutes yesterday morning
and heard United States Senator Murk
Hanna discuss the Issues of the campaign
and when he had finished the crowd was In
a splendid humor and cheered long and loud
for Hanna and everything pertaining to re
publicanism. The special which bore Sena
tors Hanna and Frye, Victor Dolllver and
other arrived here at J. 30 and waa greeted
by a deafening noise. Every whistle In the
city was turned loose, fire bells rang, bands
played and hundreds of tin horns were
brought Into action. The reception commit
tee escorted the distinguished party and the
newspaper representatives to gaily deco
rated carriages and they were driven
through the vast concourse of peoples to the
speakers' stand which had been erected on
the street. Victor Dolllver was the first
speaker and he put the crowd In a good
humor at once. H!b remarks were brief and
he was followed by Senator Hanna, who
spoke for thirty minute and made the best
campaign speech ever heard here. He was

The republican county central committee
has nominated A. L. Farrnn of Logan town
ship for county representative. This nomi
nation was left blank at the county con
vention and tho committee Instructed to
fill It. The nomination of Mr. Farran Is
conceded to be a good one. He is a young
man, a farmer, and was brought up In
Cuming county. He has always been known
as an earnest, aggressive and ht worker
ln the republican ranks, and ! 'It by
the party that the honor and rervjrnitlon
shown to him by this nomination Is -well
deserved.
The democrats of the vicinity have or
ganized and advertised a rally of their
forces for next Monday. A girls' Bryan
club has also been organized. Judging by
the desperate efforts being made by a few
leaders of this party they are not so sure
of victory as they would have their fol
lowers to believe. The activity ln this
campaign Is confined to about six demo
crats who run everything, do all the talk
ing and create all the enthusiasm the
rank and file of the party being ominously
silent. It Is with the greatest difficulty
that a corporal's guard can be gotten
out to hear Bryan doctrine.
James Johnson, a prominent liquor dealer,
and Hans Thompson, a wealthy farmer of
this county, returned on Thursday from
an extended visit to their old home In

as being very glad to get back to Nebraska

this county.

took her to Brunswick, where they met Les

that it Is a comparatively easy matter to

of tho Bee: In comparing a good many
democrats and populists of today with some
democrats of tho union artsy of '61 to ' I
find that thero Is about the tame degree of
comparison from tho fact that the democrats
of '61 to '65, while battling for the union,
were captured and confined ln those hor
rible prisons of the south till they were en
tirely wrecked and after all their trials and
suffering, on being liberated, returned home
and still continued to be democrats.
Whereas the fustonlsU of today, who four
years ago wero confined ln the prisons of

of money and almost an Impossibility of

satisfied with being delivered from "Ander

The form of official ballot for tne com
ing election has been decided upon and the
county clerks throughout the state are now
arranging the copy for the printers, al
though several of them arc ln a muddle as
to Just what Is to appear on the printed
form. The county clerk of Sarpy county
wag in Omaha Saturday to learn whether It
Is neceseary to Insert upon the official bal
lot tbo postou.ee address of tho several can
didates as they wero certified to blm by the
secretary of state. He was told that It
was not necessary, but would not be satis
fied until he had received the Information j
from the capital.
The law requires the nominees to be i
placed on the ballot ln tbe order of the
largest vote cast at tho preceding election
ul sisie ooicers ana uauer mis provisioa
County Clerk Haverly will place the repub
lican candidates first under the respective
designations of the offices for which they are
candidates. The county clerk baa already
arranged for tho printing of the ballots,
130,000 being required for Douglaa county,
65,000 of which are to bo official, printed on
white paper, and CS.00O sample on colored
paper. This number affords two ballots of
each sort for every voter registered ln the
county at the last election.
On the morning of election day the bal
lots will bo sent to the precincts, 200 for
each precinct being retained by tbe clerk
to supply any loss by accident. Tbe print
ing of the ballots will cost the voters of
the county approximately J 1.000, the large
number required causing a reduction from
tho regular price.

The printing of the ballots has occasioned
considerable thought on the part of the
Job printers of the city and the state. The
time for printing them is so short that they
have decided It Is impossible to comply with
tho technicalities of thu law- und even tho
secretary of stato has been forced to elim
inate from the ballot the names of the- can
didates for president and vice president of
:ho reveral parties. A3 approved by the
legal authority or the state, tbo ballot will
bo 16x40 Inches and will contain two .col
umns. In the left-hand column tho names
of tho btato and district officers will appear,
while the names of the county and precinct
officers will occupy the right-hand column.
In the first column under the electoral
ticket appears a space wherein the electors
may express their preference for United
States senator, the voter being Instructed
to vote for two. So far tbe only name to
appear Id this space Is that of Edward
Rosewater.
Because of Its size but few of the print
ing offices ln the state outside of Omaha
and Lincoln aro equipped for printing the
ballot and as a result a large part of the
work will be done in Omaha. So far no
contracts have been made, but it Is prob
ablo that this city will furnish the larger
part of tbe 1.000.COO b.illots required ln
tho 1,611 precincts of the Btate. The
printers of tho larger cities have agreed
upon a scale of prlce3 averaging ID per
1,000, being from $S to $10, according to the
number required. In addition to this U ad
dltloiial Is demanded for each precinct
change. Based on theso figures, which Is
probably a fair average for tho state, the
total cost of v tho printing of the ballots for
the coming election in Nebraska will be ap
proximately JlO.nco.

That MyinR seems to have been born
of the superstition deep rooted in hu
manity. It is akin to that other saying
" He laughs best who laughs Ust." Per
haps iu these and similar sayings there
is a survival of the old pagan belief that
a display of happiness was likely to in
cur tne envy of the gods and to draw
down the visitation of the malice which
is twin to envy.
It would be a ridiculous proposition to
atErtn that bad is the necessary outcome
of jood. But just as many a day which
tjin with a cloudless sky ends in
storm, so tnanx an event in life which
promises only happiness ends in disap
pointment and misery.
Thia is very true of marriage. The
young wife goes heart and soul into
home making and housekeeping. She
loves to cook and prepare the dainties
her husbaud enjoys. She is so robust
and hearty that she can hardly find
enough to do to exhaust her abuiidant
eiergy. That's the way it begins. Af
ter a while she finds that it takes tfl her
strength to care for her home. Then
household cares begin to overtax her,
and she drops down into a chair many a
time and gives way to tears because of
her weakness and "misery. The sky so
cloudless on the morning of marnage
has soon become overcast.
THE CRITICAL TIME
in many a woman's life comes just at
this period of discouragement and de
spair. She finds indications of disease
of the delicate womanly organs. Her
women friends perhaps tell her that the
bearing down sensation, the pains in the
back and loins indicate disease or dis
placement. She consults physicians,
takes prescribed treatments, all to no
avail. And yet this woman's case is
curable on the evidence of women who
have been cured.
"Four vears ago my health began to
fail," writes Mrs. Nellie M. Reycraft,
of Glenwood, Washington Co., Oregon.
" I had a hedvy dragging and weight in
the region of the uterus, pain in back
and loins, could not lift anything heavy,
rest at night very poor; stomach de
ranged. One physician said I vas over
worked, another said I had conges
tion and falling of uterus. He treated
me nine months and said I would not be
well until I had pursed the change of
life. I was only twenty-seven years old
then. I became discouraged, and began
using Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Took a teaspoonful three times a day;
began feeling better right away. Am
using my third bottle now, and feel I am
in good health. Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription has restored me to health.
If suffering women would give it a fair
trial they would give it praise."
It can truthfully be said that there is
hardly a form of womanly disease med
ically curable which will not yield to the
faithful use of Favorite Prescription "
More than this, it is a matter of record
that many forms of womanly disease pro
nounced incurable by local physicians
have been perlectly a4 permanently
had uphill work ln entertaining the audi
ence with his burlesque, VPaddywhlakl."
Trocndrro
Tho "standing room only" sign was dis
played at both matinee and evening per
formances at the Trocadcro Sunday end tho
crowds In attendance were amused to tbe
heart's content of every attendant by the
cleverness displayed by the several mem
bers of Fred Rider's New Night Owl Bur
lesque company. On the whole th" bill la
by all odds the best of the season's offerings
thus far at tbe Trocadero. The performance
opens and closes with the hodge-podge of
musical extravaganza, permitting tho intro
duction of catchy songs and attractive drills,
participated ln by able principals and a
chorus composed of shapely women and
made tho more pleasing because of handsome
and numerous costumes.
Tho olio of specialties Is of particular
merit, although no loss would be suffered by
the abseuce of the Insane sketch presented
by McCalo ' and Carcw. Bealdo this the

cured bv the use o' Dr. Pierce s Favorite
Prescription.
It is worth noting that these cures
are lasting. Many medicines offered for
women's use arc mere palliative-. They
numb the nerves and so dull the pain.
But they do not re-establish the lost
womanly health. "Favorite Prescrip
tion " is a purely veset.xblc preparation.
It contains no alcohol, neither opium,
cocaine or any other narcotic It cannot
disagree with" the weakest constitution.
It establishes regularity. Mr the drains
which weaken women", licals inflamma
tion and ulceration and cures female
weakness.
IT IS WOMAN'S WAY
to sacrifice herself for her family She
goes without the new dress that husband
or child may have som coveted pleasure.
And for economy's sake she often bears
the itls which ' arc undermining her
health. It is a false economy. The
health of the wife and mother is the
most important factor in the home life,
and every suffering woman who has been
cured by "Favorite Prescription " is a
witness "to the real economy of this
means of cure.
" My health is the best now that it has
been for four years," writes Mrs. Phebe
Morris, of Ira, Cayuga Co., N.Y., Box $3.
"I have taken but two bottles of your
medicine. 'Favorite Prescription' and
'Golden Medical Discover-.' These med
icines have done me more good than all
that I have ever taken before. eonfdn't
do my uvrk oily about holf the time,
and now I can ztvrk all the time Jor a
family of four. Before I took your
medicines I was sick in bed nenrly half
the time. My advice to all who axe
troubled with female weakness is to take
Dr. Pierce's Fnvorite Prescription and
'Golden Medical Discovery 'the most
wonderful medicines in the world."
Sick women are invited to consult Dr.
Pierce by letter, free. All letters are held
in sacred confidence and womanly confi
dences arc guarded by strict professorial
privacy. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce,
Buffalo, N. Y.
In a little more than thirty jears Dr.
Pierce, chief consulting physician to the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y., assisted by his staff of
nearly a score of physicians, has treated
and cured hundreds of thousands of sick
and suffering women.
If the dealer offers you a "inst as
good" medicine in place of "Favorite
Prescription " it is because less meritori
ous medicines pay him a little more
profit. His profit is your los3. Insist
upon having "Favorite Prescription" the
medicine which makes weak women
strong and sick women well.
THE UEASON WHY.
Some medical works content them
selves by classifying advice under the
head of "Do" or "Don't." Dr. Pierce's
Common Sense Medical Adviser gives
the reason why, for all it enjoins. It is
a plain guide to health written in plain
English and dealing with thejreat prob
lems of physiology and hygiene from
the view point of common sense. This
great work containing iooS large pages
is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay
expense of mailing only. Send 31 one
cent stamps for the work in cloth bind
ing or. only 21 stamps for the book in
paper-covers. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce,

and Charles H Duncan amuses ,wlth a
repertriro of ehararter songs. The Original
NenBboys' quintet Is ouo of the hits of the
vaudeville portion of tht program. This
featuro met with tho npproval of the pat
ron' for one reason, because many ln the
audience recognized the llvo boys as former
acquaintances, tbey having appeared on the
Orpheum circuit last season. Tho youthful
quintet sing quite as well as they formerly
did and the ono colored boy dances and cuts
up capers Just as naturally as of yoro.
"McPndden'a Hour of l'lnt"
There Is absolutely no reason wasting
space and effort on this crazy product of
a disordered Imagination, and as tbo en
gagement closed with last night's perform
ance. It Is passed without further notice.
Even dramatic critics cannot write about
nothing, and this, when It Is reduced to Its
ultimate analysis, Is what tbo alleged
"play" amounts to.
