in which he made a number of points
in favor of protection to American
manufactories and to American
wage earners. He was followed by
Capt. W. R. Akers. who spoke for
an hour and a quarter on the tariff,
monetary and irrigation subjects.
His speech was a forcible one, the
subjects being" handled in a clear
and practical manner. The audi
ence received much information on
these three subjects, and especially
in regard to irrigation, and were
anxious that the Captain talk
longer, but he had already exceeded
his time by fifteen minutes and
closed his remarks amid enthusiasm.
North Platte will jnve Captain

due AY. J. Cruzen, who had charge

ALWAYS A ItEASOX WHY.
This has been a year of wonder
ful growth for The Lincoln State
Journal. It's aggressive methods
have pushed it to the front. One
thing- that accounts for this is The
Journal's principles. It is republi
can, true and blue, but first of all
it is a great newspaper and con
siders news the most essential fea
ture. It prints more state tele
graph news than either of the
Omaha papers. The business in
terests of the state recognize in
The Journal the only state paper
which is standing- up for the wel
fare of Nebraska. You can see how
The Journal is growing-in your own
town. It i. g-aining- in every other
town in the state just as much.
The reduced price is only 50 cents
per month without Sunday, or 65
cents per month with Sunday.
This also accounts for the big
growth. The Semi-AYeekiy Journal
has the largest cirulation of any Ne
braska paper. It has completely
routed its old-fashioned once-a-week
rivals. It is being sent from
now until January 1st, 1896. for
S1.00. This carries readers through
the coming- legislature and through
the next presidential campaign. It
gives readers two complete papers
each week for the price of one.
Gov. Furnas is farm editor, and I.
T. Lvman. poultry editor. It is
published at the state capital and is

Richard Smith, the Philadelphia type
founder, who died recently in Paris, left

This memorial is to take the form of
granite arches, one to be used as a diive
way and two others as footways, in ac
cordance with plans already prepared
and approved by the testator.
