II V TAVENNEH. Washington, Sept. io. Spending nearly 20o,ooo a dny more than ltn innt in tlm infmmrif nlnetwl 41ia'I month of August with a deficit approx imatine $5,000,000, which is indicative of a deficit of ?Go, 000,000 for this fisc al year, as a.ainst a deficit of ?tQ, 480,752.43 for the last fiscal year. This deficit was duo to two princi pal causes: First; The unparalleled extrava gance of the standpat faction of the republican party, which is in control of the government. Second: Failure of the PayncAI drich tariff law to produce sufficient revenue to meet the expenses of the government. Excess of expenditures over receipts is not new in the history of the party now in power. For three or four years now the government has been closing its books each night facing a big de ficit in the day's business. But the average American does not know this While there would be no justification for stating in this dispatch that the big press associations misstate the facts, there is ample justification for saying that the facts aro so stated that the average man does not understand them. For instance, the statement of the treasury issued at the close of business Aug. 27, shows that the excess of ex penditures over receipts for July and the first 27 days of August, iqio, amounted to 514.431,727.34, or an av erage deficit of $286,634.54 for each banking day in that period. No one could possibly so understand the situ ation, which invariably gave the ad ministration side of the government finances. If a business firm should spend more money than it took in, day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year, it is but natural to asFume that the stockholders would demand a new management. Yet the men in charge of the government have for years been able to overspend the receipts without having been called to account by the public. THE 1910 CAMPAIGN BOOK. Every democratic worker in the country should have a copy of the 1910 Democratic Campaign book, which is without doubt the best handbook on the tariff now in print. One of the unusual features of the book, as con trasted with past campaign books, is its utilization of Republican utterances to sustain Democratic arguments. Thirty-six of the 515 pages are made up exclusively of speeches by Repub licans, who take the same position on the big iqio issues as the Democratic leaders- The committee is asking $1 for the book, which goes toward de fraying expenses of the Democratic Concessional committee. Not having beeu favored with contributions by the great industrial concerns of the country, the Democratic committee must rely largely upon contributions from the people. Those who are really unable to contribute $1 to the campaign fund, however, mav secure a copy of the campaign book free. Contributions and requests for the book should be addressed to the Hon. James T. Lloyd, chairman of the National Democratic Congressional committee, Washington, D. C Bill Becker Back in Business 1 s itir?TyfHTyvtnnriivtim E. Becker, commonly known as ''Bill," is one of the best known rest aurant and cafe men in this part of Nebraska, and his many Alliance friendR are pleased that he has gone into that business again. Having pur chased the cafe at 211 Box Butte avenue of Mrs. Burkett, he took a few days in fixing ft up, painting, etc., and last week opened for business, which starts out well, as might be expected under his management, "Bill" is not ed for keeping a good place to get a short order or square meal, and never fails to have good trade. Musicale Postponed On account of conflicting with other entertainments, the Musicale to be giv en by the Epworth League next Friday evening has been postponed until Mon day, September 19th. The last Music ale was a big success and it is expected that as there is nothing to conflict on Monday the church will be packed to hear the programs which are proving so popujar.

Shay, aged fifty-one years. It was our good fortune to have known him long and well, and we knew him to esteem him more highly as the years passed by. Today we miss his kindly smile and friendly greeting; we long in vain to hear the ring of his jovial laughter and to feel again his genial presence- Only yesterday we sat before his bier in the church near the scene of his happy days, We stood by his open grave as the last sad rites were performed, and as the clay of earth closed above his silent resting place, we said wifh the poet: "Cold in the dust the perished heart uiy l.e, but that which warmed it once can never die." He was a devoted husband and a kind and indulgent lather; to his sisters a tender brother; to bis friends the soul of fellowship. But the greatest of all was he as a man. In the year 1884 he moved to Boone county, Nebraska, from his boyhood home in Wisconsin. The following year he settled in Box Butte county. He was married to Miss Ellen Riley, at Nonpariel, in 1888. He leaves to mourn him, a widow; Mrs. Mellie Agues Shay; daughter, Margaret Ellen Shay; son, John Ambrose Shay, and sisters, Mrs. Sweeney, of Arena, Wis., and Mrs. Lynch of Algona, Iowa. Funeral pervices were conducted by Rev. Fr. McNamara at the Holy Ros ary church Wednesday morning. In terment was made at the Catholic cemetery. Not for him our tears! Rather let us crown his grave with garlands; few of us will live as long or as well, and fewer yet will the Angle of Death greet with such a loving touch. Entire new stock, up-to-date clothes at Phil'Pizer's Palace for Men. J. C. Barry, for some time manager of the Forest Lumber Company branch in this city, left for Denver Wednesday where he expects to locate. Mr. and Mrs. S. P.

F. Baldridge, with law offices in the McCorkle Block, has added a fine law library of several hundred volumes to bis well equipped office.
