Wrn. P. Warner, republican can
didate for congrcMi, wa present at a
moating of the Thurston county re
publican organization last week at
Walthill, and the Tirno tnake the
followinK commentH on hi8 talk at
the meeting:
"Mr. Warner wa asked to talk to
the meeting and did ho informally,
without making a speech, and re
viewed somewhat the character of
the Bcntiment he found over the dis
trict, referring lorn to hiu own can
didacy for congroHH than to the gen
eral Hituation. Everywhere he ha
been he hux found the republicans
united and confident, even enthusi
astic. Mr. Warner was very mod
out in reference to himself and re
frained from any aspersions against
his opponent, stating that he did
not underestimate his strength in the
district, his capacity for organizing
and campaigning. He made no
boasts further than to say that Mr.
Stephens would not roll up such a
majority in the district as he did
two years ago. Mr. Warner did not
give the impression that the reduct
ion would be due to his strength as
a vote getter, but from the fact that
the present congressman has lost
much of the confidence of the voters
throughout the district.

Women's Rural Short Course
A rural short course in home eco
nomics will be conducted by Miss
Aurel Scott, of the University of
Nebraska, at the Dakota City Salem
church, beginning at 1:30 p. in. on
Tuesday, August 15th, and closing
on Friday afternoon of the same
week. Owing to the. busy season,
the customary morning sessions will
be dispensed with and the afternoon
sessions will begin promptly at 1:30
and close at 5 o'clock.
Everybody is cordially invited to
attend these meetings, which in all
probability will be the only ones of
this nature held in this county this
year.
Miss Scott comes especially well
qualified and just at the outset of
the canning season, and this work
will be of exceptional value to the
housewives of the community.
This short course has been arrang
ed to be a forerunner for a mixed
short course in meat cutting and
curing.
M. E. Church Notes.
Services will be held on Sunday at
11 a. m. and 8 p. m. The Pastor
will preach at both services. A cor
dial invitation is given to all.
We are glad to announce that
Rev. C. N. Martin will preach here
on the evening of August 27th. Dr.
Martin is the secretary of our hos
pital at Omaha. He does not come
to solicit subscriptions, but to speak
more particularly of the spiritual
value of this work. We speak for
him a good audience.
Will the members who have con
tributed'-to the hospital in the way of
provisions kindly hand their receipts
to the Pastor so that we may get
proper credit at conference.
We have set aside Wednesday,
August 23rd as our annual member
ship evening. An interesting pro
gram will be arranged. Itis expect
ed that every member will be pres
ent. The present program will be
in your hands in due course.
