No good and suflicient reason hns yet
been advnncod why Senator Brown
should bo denied the endorsement of a
re-election. On the eontrary, every
test of logic and fairness answers in
favor of n Bccond term. Ho has been
efficient and faithful in his service. No
suspicion of scandal or insincerity has
touched his garments. He has never
lacked tho courage to defend his con
victions or failed to give a satisfactory
accounting of his stewardship He is
exactly the kind of a man that Ne
braska has needed in tho senate for lo,
theso many years. The mere fact that
some other good man wants tho job is
not enough to justify tho people of this
stato in rotiring Norris Brown to pri
vate life.

In letter to The Tribune editor,
William J Bryan in part says: "The line
is clearly drawn in Nebraska botween
progressive democracy, as represented
by Governor Wilson and Speaker Clark,
and reactionary democracy as rep
resented by Governor Harmon. I am
indiirerent as botween Wilson and
Clark. I am sorry wo havo been unnblo
to get together on ono man, either one
against tho reactionary candidate.
Hon. I. J. Dunn, Judge Loomis, Judge
Westover, and I are tho candidates for
delegates nt largo who are opposed to
tho nomination of Judgo Harmon or any
other reactionary. Wo would like to
got this fact boforo tho democratic
voters. It is for them to decide whether
thoy want to bo represented by pro
gressive domocrats."
Senator Lorimor, of Illinois, of

vindication at tho hnnds of tho special
committee of eight senators who fin
ished a second investigation of his

quitted the committee, by votes of G
to 3 on vital points, completely exoner
ated, him of any knowledge of legis
lative corruption. Edward Hines, tho
millionaire lumborman referred to in
tho investigation as tho man "who
put Lorimor over," nlso got a vindi
cation by tho committee. It had boon
charged that Hines raised a corrupt
fund of $100,000 to elect Lorimor to
tho sonate. Tho majority ropudlntcd
that, and passod a resolution that
evidonco had hhown that he did not
roijo or contribute any sum improperly.
Must Pass A Physical Test.
A press dispatch from Chicago says
that Dean Walter T. Summer of the
Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul re
cently delivered a sermon upon the
"sacrament of marriage" during which
ho made the following announcement:
"After consultation with the Right
Rev. C. P. Anderson, bishop of Chi
cago, and with his approval, Dean
Summers and his co-workers of the
cathedial of St. Peter nnd Paul have
agreed upon an advanced policy with
regards to tho administration of marn
ago in tho catheral. Beginning with
Easter, no persons will be married at
tho cathedral unless thoy present a
certificate of health from a roputablo
physician to tho elToct that thoy are
normal, physically and mentally, and
have neither an incurable or communi
cable disense.
"This step is taken only after months
of study of tho situation and delibera
tion as to its advisability. It is be
lieved that this Btand will meet with
tho immediate sympathy of tho clergy
in tho church at large, all of whom
havo long felt tho undosirability of
being party to the marriage of persons
who, because of their physical condi
tion, should never bo allowed to enter
into tho marriage stato and propagate
their species. "
WHEN HER BACK ACHES
Washout Delays Traffic.
Traffic was almost abandoned on tho
Nebraska division of tho Union Pacific
Saturday nnd Sunday, duo to wnshedout
tracks botween Fremont and Valloy and
nt Bnrton, fivo miles east of Julesburg.
At this latter point the water rushed
down a rnvino and undermined tho
abutments of a fourteen-foot steel
bridge, causing it to settle several feet,
and about ono hundred feet of grado
Vas likewise washed away. From
Friday night until Sunday noon trains
wore dotourod over tho North river
branch, using tho Burlington traqk
from Northport to Sidnoy. This caused
a delay of about eight hours to each
train. The washout was repaired Sun
day at noon.
Following tho washout at Frotnont
tho Union Pacific dotoured its trains
-via Lincoln and thenco over tho Bur
lington to Grand Islnnd, but later tho
Burlington experienced flood trouble
and for about twenty-four hours trains
going east wore held at Grand Islnnd
while thoso scheduled west were aban
doned. Truina due at this terminal
Friday night arrived twenty-four hours
late, and during the twenty-four bourn
ending Sunday evening there wero no
trains from tho east. Freight from tho
wost was held in tho local yards Sun
day night nnd yesterday. For throo
days tho yards at Grand Island wero
congested with freight.
In Memoriam.
In loving memory of Cora V. Yates,
who died April 1st. 1910.
Tho path by which wo twnin ilitl go,
Which led by tracts which pleased us
well,
Thro' four sweet yeara nroso and fell,
From (lowor to flower, from anow to

As wo descended, following hope,
There sat tho shadow fenred ofimnn,
Who broke our fair companionship
And spread his mantle dark and cold,
And bore thpo where I could not seo or
follow. L. M. II.

eases by striking at tho cause. Hero's

woman's words:
Mrs.' Mnry Hollenbock, 520 E.
Eloventh St., North Platte, Neb.,
says: "In a statement endorsing Doan's
Kidney Pills, given in August, 1907, I
told how Bovernl years previous, I had
suffered from a severe nclio in tho
small of my back. 1 aroso in tho
morning, feeling stiir nnd lame nnd it
required a long timo for mo to straigh
ten. The kidney secretions nlso an
noyed mo greatly. Doan's Kidney
Bills, procuied from McDonoll &
Graves' Drug store (now Schiller &
Co's. Drug Store), proved beneficial
and no other leinedy I hnvo ever taken
has given mo more relief. I do not
known how I could get along without
