CONGRESSMAN.

date for the nomination for congrcss
mnn from the Sixth District of Ne
brankn at the primary election to be

UofiERT'O. Ross,
Lexington, Neb.
COUNTY COMMISSIONER.
I horchy nnnounco mysolf a candi
(Into for tho nomination for county com
miMioncr for tho Third district, subject
to tho notion to tho voters nt tho pri
mary election, September 1st, 1008.
Ira A. Gaitiier,
Dickens, Neb.
That straw vote taken on a Union
Pacific train tho other day shows the
rolativo strength of tho two lending
presidential cundidntcs Taft twenty
four, Hryun fourteen.
Tnndemocratsof Illinois hava rescued
Adlni Stevenson from hia political ob
livion by selecting him as their candi
dnto for governor, thereby hoping to
mid strength to Bryan in that stntc.
Adlai will not, however, provo n win
ning card for Bryan.
Tom Majors, who has been identi
fied with tho republican party in No
hrnsku for forty yoars, is a candidate
for state senntor from his district and
it is snld thnt ho will neither have
opposition at tho primaries nor in his
flection. Whether Tom will enjoy this
is questionable Ho is so accustomed
to having political fights that an un
opposed enmpnign will mnkohim lonely.
Nkiiraska republicans havo bcon
complimented by tho selection of Wm.
G. llnywnrd, chairman of the republi
can state committeo, to be secretary of
tho republican national committeo. Mr.
I lay ward, as chairman of tho state
committee, has shown himself a capa
ble man, nnd has proven that straight
forward dealing in politics is more
successful than tho employment of
doubtful methods.
An eminent police judgo and a well
known business man of Omaha wcro
ejected from a restaurant of that city,
after paying for a meal thoy did not
get, becauso ono of them was attired
in a shirt waist instead of a coat. Thus
do the decrees of fashion forco discom
fort even upon man. Out hero in North
I'latto a man with a collarlcss shirt, one
galluB and no shoes on his feet can cat
at a rcstuurant if ho has tho prico.
Wo regret to sou Omaha loso that per
soniil freedom so long dominant in tho
west.
The idea of electing Mr. Bryan be
cause ho could do no harm to tho busl
iiobs interests of tho country on ac
count of tho fact that tho United States
Bcnnto would bo republican, is pre
posterous, sayo tho Beatrice Express.
Why elect him if ho could do nothing7
Why favor n man whoso policies would
destroy confidence and hinder prosperity
If llo but had tho powor7 Why not
elect a man in harmony with tho Bcn
nto a man who could do something and
whoso policies would strengthen and
promote tho material intorcots of tho
country? To elect a man merely bo
cnuse ho wants tho ofllco or because a
political party feels that Its turn has
como, would bo utter folly.
Homestead Law Amendment.
Tho following amendment to tho law
pertaining to Klnknid homosteads will
be of interest to thoso who havo taken
land under that act:
That miction two of an act entitled
"An act to amend tho homestead laws
iib to certain unappropriated and un
reserved lands in Nebraska," approved
nnrn za, tuui, ou nnu tno snmo Hereby
is amended to read ns follows:
"Section 2. That ontrymcn under tho
homestead laws of tho United States
within tho territory abovo described
who own and occupy tho lands horcto
foro entered by them may, under tho
provisions of this act and subject to its
conditions, entor other lands contiguous
10 iiicir muu nomcsieau entry, which
shall not, with tho land so already
entered, owned and occupied, exceed in
tho aggregate- six hundred nnd forty
acres; unci residence conunuou and Im
provements mailt) Unnn thn nrltrlnnl
homestead, subsequent to tho making
of tho additional entry, shall bo ac
cepted as equivalent to actual residence
and improvements made upon tho ad
ditional land so entered, but final entry
shall pot bo allowed of such additional
land until ilvo yoars aftor first entering
tho sumo, except In favor of entry mon
entitled to credit for military sorvico."
The Business Outlook for 1908.
On all Bides wo sea evltlenco that tho
tide has turned. A steady improve
ment from this tlmo onward may bo
looked for with confidence. In New
York. Chicago. Pittsbunr. St. Louis.
Boston and other industrial centers
mills uro reopening thoir doors. Tho
stocks of goodB in tho hands of manu
facturers and wholesalers havo been
reduced to low figures, and tho resump
tion of purchases, which in under way
in all tho groat lines of trade, is begin
ning to send in ordoru to tho factories
with u llttloor tnotrom-ttmo volumo.
Within tho past three weeks tho out
put of tho mills of tho United States
Steel corporation has bcon Increased
ten per cent over tho nverugo of recent
months. Tho promlso is that by tho bo-
ginning ot xsovomuor mac largest of
the world's stool concorns will bo run
ning its works to noarly their full capa
city. Tho Indopondont steel mills,
which furnish almost half of tho coun
try's product, aro also responding to
(ho upwurd turn in trado,
This improvement is registering it
solf in tho reduction of tho number of
Idle locomotives and cars. When tho
number wus at its highest, in tho clos
ing days of April, 413,000 cars wore
sidetracked throughout tho United
Stated for lack of work. In tho clos
ing days of July tho number had
dropped below tho 300,000 line. The
heavy crops, which in a few weeks will
bpgln to move to tho markets, are likely
to send the number of idle cars down
to very small figures before November.
It the election turns out to bo what a
Inrco maiorltv tf tho bulsness men of
tho country wnnt it to be, every loco
motivo and car in the United States
will probably bo actively at work by
January llrst. American industries
for August.
