fectly satisfactory to tho Kearney

informs me that the negotiations for a
Borvice will bo restored about June 18.

Now is certainly tho timo to buy a

buy now and save from $300 to $500.

In making a note of the candidacy of
E. W. Crano for county judgo, The

publican. He remained a populist until
that party was absorbed by tho demo
