Phillips: The democratic electors of the state of Nebraska nre hereby called in deleg ate convention at the city of Omaha, Wednesday, June 1, 1904, at 2 o'clock, p.m. for the purpose of electing four dclegatos-al-largo and four alternate do-lcgatcs-nt-largc, and twelve district de legates and twelve alternate district de legates, each congressional district in the state being entitled to two district delegates and two alternate district de legates, said delegates to represent the democratic party of Nebraska in the democratic national convention to be held in St. Louis, Mo., July 6, igrtj. The several counties of the state will be entitled to one delegate to said stale convention and in addition then c to one delegate for each joo votes, or major fraction thetcof, cast at the general election of 1903 for Hon. John J. Sull ivan, for supreme judge. Box Butto county, under this ratio, will be entitled to six delegates. It is recommended by the slate ecu lull committee that in all cases where counties select a new county committee in the your 1904 hat said count' com mittee be named at the fust count' con vention held. 11 fm ther recommended that no pi ox ies be allowed at said state convention, unless held byu person tesiding ill the county Which he seeks to represent. By order of democratic state central committee, Match 15, 1904. P. L. Hall, Chairman. G. W. Phillips, Sea clary. The democrats of Lincoln did them selves proud in tho city olection, almost sweeping the platter. The lleaist boom has struck Ohio, and as a result, the New Yorker has captured several delegate conventions. It now looks as if he would lead tho democratic hosts in the coming cam paign. V. R. Hearst, the popular presi dential candidate, scored a victory in the supreme court of the U.nited States last week in his suit against the coal hauling combine of the anthracite region. This signal victory was unexpected, and coming on the eve of thu national convention, will boom the congress man's stock materially. United States Senator Burton of Kansas, who was found guilty of using his influence before tho post office tie paitmenfciiu behalf of the Kialto Grain and Securities company of St. Louis, was sentenced to six months' imprison ment in tic Iron county jail and fined 2,500, And now every lepublican sheet in the laud is actively engaged throwing stones at the condemned man, with not a word against others fully as deep in the mire as Burton, who have escaped the clutches of justice through legal technicalities. The Adams County Democrat of last week truthfully says that the question of assessing railroad property in Ne braska thtsyear.proinises to he the para mount issue again. The boaid of as sessment and equalization will soon meet to determine the valuation of all rauroau property, in view ot the ex pected increase in valuation of all other property, the board should raise rail road valuation a like per cent. This is the least the board can do. Another thing is the listing of railroad property. Instead of bunching it, it should be list ed like the property of private individ uals.. So u.any depots, so many cars, etc. It is the only lair way of getting at the real uluc. Theu the franchise should be valued at its real worth. Tho right to tax freight charges against the people of tnis state every year, for all time at any amount is worth something. Let the board deal fairly by the people in this matter and no one will find fault. "Till: MOUNTAIN I.AIIOUKI) Columbus Teloirriim The mountain labored and brought forth Judge Baxter, who has been ap pointed to succeed United States Attor ney Summers. It is a distinct Dietrich victory. Baxter is a Burlington favor .te. - Dietrich is a Burlington creation and n Buthngton asset. Roscwntcr helped the Burlington. And that is tho most shameful part of tho whole pro ceeding. For thirty years Uoscwater has been regarded by thousands of Ne braska people as a teal antimouopolist. Those thousands have believed that Koscwater would always be with them in opposition to the political demands of the railroads. His present surrender to the Burlington is shocking to thous ands of Ncbraskaus , By this act he haB thrown n black spot upon a life rec ord to which the average Nebraska anti monopolist has hitherto pointed with pride. The Telegram is wholly unable to understand the mighty pressure which must have been brought to bear upon Mr, Koscwater to induce him in his later days to blot and blur his own good record of past years. The appointment of Judge Baxter is notice to the world that the president of tho United States has prepared to wash the Unclean Diet rich and compel all good republicans to gaze upon the foul accident from Hast ings and sav: "Behold tne handiwork of God an honest man." Ah liccp In the Mire ns in the .Mud. Maimer County Nows. "Bill" Fuller and Lester Van Pelt got in a mixup last Sunday, which resulted in each receving a few bruised spots'; however .Mr. Fuller did not feel as though ho were ijuttc even in the deal, so he came to town Monday to have Lester VanPelt arrested, but according to his own story he seems to be as "deep in mire as Lester is in the mud," so no steps were taken in thn matter.

Right on the heels of the big prairie fire the coal sheds at this place burned. No. 41) dumped a nile of coals and 41 coming along blew the burning cinders under the coal shed which soon startod a lively blaze. Conductor Mc Cracken was side tracked bore with his train and blew the whistle, calling the section men who were at dinner. The engine was run back to tho binning building and emptied the contents of the boiler on the blaze, but to no pur pose, the fire spieadiug so rapidly that all efforts to extinguish the blaze failed. It was soon discovered that the freight train was on ftte and three cars was cut off and left to go up in the blaze. Three others caught fire but were pushed under the pipe at the water taukfjand the fire extinguished. The cattle chute and a considerable part of the stock yards fence were burned. But for the extreme calmness of the day several residences would have been consumed. Carpenter Blade and a gang of workmen are here build ing a temporary shed, which will soon bo ready for use. ( ADDITIONAL LOCAL. The terrific wind ol the past two days has figured materially in railroad trans portation and trains from tho east have been compelled to keep up a full head of stuatn to press onward in the climb from Broken Bow west. Koith Pierce of Homingford was trans acting business at the county hub one day Inst week. It's not often a man has the pleasure of chasing after his hat for the distance of several blocks, but this has been a common sight the past day or two.

" The Custer County Republican in speaking of the cashier of the First National bank of this city says: "While at Alliance last week, we called upon S. K. Warrick, cashier of tne First National bank of that city. Mr. War rick appeared as much at home in charge of bis new duties as he docs at home here. He has a fine bank build ing, well arranged. His firm is evi dently doing a thriving business and is recognized by aJl to be the leading bank of Alliance. Mi. Wan ick for the pres ent will stay in Bioken Bow Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, and at Alliance the four fallowing days.. Owing to the train service, the trip between hauand Alliance can be made at night, so but little lime is lost fiom business hours." Stolen.

In fact, no farmer most valuable of farm machines, The use of a good Ifand cream separator means that every user of such a machine will be well repaid for their labor in connection with the keeping of cows, and that there will be a handsome profit derived as well. The use of a good hand cream separator mentis more profit and less work. The advantages of using' a hand cream separator are many. It lessens labor; it enables one to get more cream and better cmality of cream than by older methods; it leaves you the warm, fresh, sweet skim milk for yoar calves or other young stock; it does away with the long, tedious drives to the creamery station; it enables one to keep all thoir milk at home except the cream that it is desired to sell, and saves the hauling both to and from town of the large number of cans necessary where the whole milk is taken away from the farm for the skimming. There is no comparison between the amount of labor necessary in keeping cows under the old and new system. The hand cream separator is a machine that has made dairying pleasant and profitable instead of irksome and unprofit able. It makes the difference between good methods and bad methods. It makes a difference between irk some labor and pleasant employment. Many larmers tell us that they make a better profit by shipping us their cream than by making butter at home and peddling it to their country merchants, who make it necessary for them to trade it out at their stores. Under the EMPIRE way of dairying you haul a can or two of cream to town in a buggy or light wagon and receive cash for the same twice a month. SVe pav prices based on tho New York butter market at all seasons of the year, for cream from any good make of separator, delivered at your nearest railway station or at our rccaiving station in Alliance. We sell the splendid, easy running EMPIRE Hand Cream Separator because it's without a doubt the best separator made for general farm use.
