The returns of the late election
show republican majorities in both
the senatorial and representative
districts of which Tvincoln county
is a part.
General FuNstoNhas started on
his return to the Philippines, and
when he arrives there Aguinaldo
will proceed to hunt a cayc in the
mountains.
The Era is authority for the
statement that A. P. Parsons, of
this city, will be private secretary
to congressman-elect Neville. This
is probably as it should be.
The republicans are not alone in
expressing the belief that Bryan is
a dead duck so far as the presi
dency is concerned. One-half the
democratic leaders of the country
hold the same view.
Senator Caffery, of Louisiana,
pronounces Bryanism a disease
that produces permanent corruption
and disorder. He thinks that it is
a disease that will be hard to erad
icate. It is announced that Senator
Thurston will be married next Sun
day to Miss Lola Puman, of
Washington, who is said to be a
very talented and accomplished
youug w.oman. Ncbraskans ex
tend congratulations in advance of
the ceremony.
When the election of a fusioniBt
in Nebraska creates a birth for
bo me place-hunter, a hundred fu
sion patriots go after the plum like
a pack of hungry wolves on the
track of a stray lamb. Just now
the supreme court clerkship is the
morsel over which they are wrang
ling. Events in fusion politics are al
ready beginning to assume a shape
that means a fulfillment of the
prophecy of M. C, Harrington
that there will be but two parties
in the field after this year. The
populists might as well begin to
climb into the band wagon of cither
the republican or democratic party
Senator Haywako has been in a
very critical condition for several
days past and the chances for his
recovery are slight. In case of his
death, Governor Poyntcr will name
a senator, who will hold ofiicc until
the legislature elects a senator to
fill the vacancy. If the governor is
called upon to appoint he will prob
ably name ex-senator Allen.
The midway show held at Omaha
the past summer proved a poor fi
nancial investment, the receipts
being one hundred thousand dol
lars less than the expenses. If the
promoters had taken the advice ot
the 4,yokelB" who publish-the coun
try ncwBpaperH in the state, the
stockholders of the concern would
not have Uiib big debt Btnring them
in the face.
Late developments indicate that
the rebellion iu the Philipwincs is
on Ub last legs, and that by the
time congress meets President Mc
Kluley will be able to announce
through his message the good news
of the pacification of the island
with possible suggestions as to
dealing with the Philippines iu a
way to preserve order and promote
prosperity to the inhabitants.
A WASHINGTON (litttvitrli ill V
Kansas City paper says President
McKinlcy fa Beriously considering
the appointment of George D. Mew
klejohn as civil governor of Cuba.
Ab uasistant secretary of war, Mr.
Mciklejohn has made an excellent
record, and furhter advancement iu
office will only tend to develop his
capabilities. His appointment aw
civil governor nf Cuba would be
highly pleasing to his Nebraska
friends.
SIDNEY LAND SALE.
The land it: the abandoned mil
itary reservation at Ft. Sidney and
the buildings which had been used
for officers' quarters and other pur
poses were ofTcrcn at public sale at
Sidney on "Wednesday. A tract
containing about 260 acres lying
near the Union Pacific right-of-way
was bid in by Mr. Sayrc of the
Union Pacific laud department at
$1267.62. There was sonic lively
bidding on the forty acre tract
which contained the buildings be
tween the B. & M, railroad repre
sentatives and A. B. Jones, a local
capitalist. It was finally knocked
down to Jones lor $4000. He prolJJ
fcrcd in payment a certified check
on the Omaha National Bank for
that amount but as one of the
terms of the sale was that cash
must be paid at the time of the
purchase the sale to Mr, Jones was
declared off and that tract was
offered for Bale again yesterday.
It is quite probable that the B. &
M, will finally succeed in purchas
ing it.
HAPPILY WEDDED.
Mr. Frank Mothcrscad and Miss
Bertha Hofmcistcr were united in
marriage Wednesday evening at
the home of the bride's parents in
Wallace by Rev. S. R. Derrebcrry.
The ceremony occurred in the par
lor, which was prettily decorated
for the occasion. The bridal cou
ple formed in adjoining room and
marched to their position through
a lane which was formed of white
satin ribbons held by the two little
Harper girls, Helen and Eloisc.
The bride's aistcr was the maid of
honor. The groom was unattend
ed. The bridc'B gown was ot very
handsome white cashmorc.
After the ceremony a very delic
ioiiB wedding supper was served.
There were about sixty guests
present.
The bride is well known in North
Platte and is deservedly popular
among all of her acquaintances,
being a young lady of many fasci
nating qualities. The groom is a
veteran of the late war, having
served as quartermaster sergeant
in the Third Nebraska, At pres
ent he is in the postal service as
postal clerk on a run iu northern
Kansas. lie is a young man of
sterling worth. Our congratula
tions are extended.
Chief Clerk Stephens is busily
engaged in packing up the effects
of the resident engineers' oilice
preparatory to the removal ol them
to Omaha, as the office is to be
abandoned for the winter at least.
10. Stcngcr, who has been in charge
of all the road-bed work during the
summer, is now in iu Omaha but
will be assigned to work iu Wyom
ing. Robert McCabc and Mr. Dudley,
of Cheyenne, are spending a few
days in town visiting friends while
euroutc to Chicago where they will
spend several weeks. Mr. Dunley
has just returned from (service with
the volunteers in the Philippines,
where he was very seriously ill, and
is taking the trip for the benefit of
his health.
The meteoric display which was
scheduled for this week has so far
failed to appear and on that ac
count the numcroua star-gazing
parties which were held have not
been very successful.
Colonel Henry In man, a warm
personal friend of Colonel Cody,
died at Topeka, Kb., Wednesday.
Colonel Inman visited North Platte
several times iu years past.
Street Commissioner Davis is
waging a vigorous sidewalk cam
paign, the good effect of which is
already very noticeable iu certain
parts of the city.
The state labor commissioner
values the Burplus products of Ne
braska marketed during 1898 at
$187,000,000. And yet Nebraska
has established the reputatiou of
being the only calamity state iu the
union,

LOST
Lost I No mnn understands the full
meaning of that word like the man who
has been lost. He will tell you: "Iwoa
in the woods going ahead steadily when
I realized I'd missed the trail. With a
cry p( ' Ijst I I broke Into a run heed
less or ignorant of the direction I was
going."
The first impulse of a man lost in the
woodfl is to run. The only 6afe tiling la
to sit right down and reason out the
position.
Sometimes a business man gets up at the
usual hour, breakfasts, kisses his wife and
starts for the office. He has for some
time seen signs that he was off the trail
of health. To-day the signs multiply.
His brain is dull and dizzy, his heart
docs not beat right, his breathing is dif
ficult, his limbs feel tremulous. He is
scared. He realizes that he's far away
from the trail of health, and suddenly
like a panther from a tree, the thought
leaps on him,, " You are a lost man."
The first impulse Is to run for help,
though the way Is honey-combed with
pitfalls of quackery. But the rational
man faces the facts, sits down and
thinks over the position and its proba
bilities. That is the man we want to talk to.
Disease In almost any form is gen
erally accompanied by the failure of the
organs of digestion and nutrition. Re
establish these organs in healthy action,
the blood is at once enriched, the body
nourished and the general health re
stored. This result Is invariably ac
complished by Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. It is a stomach-strcngth-cning,
nerve-nourishing, muscle-maklnjr,
blood-purifying medicine. It has cured
thousands who thought their health
entirely lost. The "Discovery" is not
a stimulant and contains no alcohol or
whisky. Sold at all medicine stores.
BRADY ISLAND.

Occasional bunches of geese can
