Returns Money
NriiiAWKA, Neur., Nov. 8, lou
lion. (leu ry lJ. Casson,
S0rgeant.-at.Ami8,
House of Representatives,
vV.iililnyLoci. D G.
My dear Mr. Casnou:
On it careful examination of the
cases to whiuli you referred leai luc on
tliu election of congressmen to (111
vacauuies, I lliul none Unit covers my
easo in every pirlloiilur Tliu one
point upon wliicii there Is a d fforunoo
of opinion in my case it) whether Hon
E. J. Hurkett wan my Jejml piedecessor
in the 5JHh Congress (So far as 1 have
been able to hcei tain a queaHon ex
uctly similar to my own linn never been
passed upon by the, Judiciary Com
mitten of the House or by tl.'o Courls
of I he United State.. I am Hilly
aware that your construction of Section
fit of the Revised Statutes of tliu
United States makes it applicable to
my case and tiiat jour construction
agrees with that of nil your prcdecesn
aura since the enactment of the statute
in 1802 When I accepted the money
you sent me as payment of salary
covering tin- period from March -1 h to
.luly 18th. the dale of my election, 1
did bo because 1 knew that at that time
no one was really a member of the rl)ii
Congtess and that I would be on band
to take try oath of diluent the same
time that all other members elected
to the f0th Congies would Imswoin
in I knew that unless my health
failed iii( J would be piesent at all the
sessions of Congress; thereby rendering
the same service to Hie government as
other members. Knowing this 1 knew
no reason why I should not receive the
name compensation, especially so p'nee
there was authority of law for my
receiving such pav. However, 1 do
not propose to retain any money paid
no for service wheio there is the least
question of doubt about my right to it:
consequently 1 herewith return to you
1,8(11 84, the amount of salary paid
me for the period running from March
4th to July 18th, 1005.
1 would have returned this earlier
except thai my right to it was not
questioned until after I became a can
didate for renomination and re-elect'on
to Congress I did not take this action
at i hut time because my niuiivea would
have been misconstrued, thus sub-,
jecting myself to the criticism of
attempting to inllnence voters or of
purchasing the good-will oT my con
stituents. Very truly yours,
liKNKST M. POLLAIM)
Can't TakeIt
Wasiiinoton, Nov 1) The attempt
of Congressman Pollard to refund
Si, 8111, lepresontii.g salary paid him
tiom Marcli 4 to .July IS. 11)05, will
probably prove tutile. It was the
contention ot his opponent in the late
election that tb he was llrst elected on
a later date at special election to (ill
the unexpired term of Senator Burkett
be was not untitled to salary for the
period when no was technically not a
member. Sergeant-at-Ai ms Casson is
not in the city, but his assistant said
there wiu no pne dent ho far as he
knew for such an action on the pait of
a congressman and he could not say
positively just what in-ght be done
witli thedialt from Pollard when it
arrwed, except, of course, it would be
held until Mr. Casson returns He
expressed the opinion, howHver, that
ttie draft would be returned to Mr.
Pollard Mr. Pollard, he said, is
olearly legally entitled to tho money
and Mr Casson could not take it unless
Mr. Pollard. is so anxious to get rid of
his cash as to make a prfsent of the
draft to Mr Casson peisonally. There
seems to be no way to cover this
money back Into tho treasury except
thiough one avenue, and that would
be to send it direct to thu treasurv mrl
have it placed in what is known as the
conscience fund ."

WHVT THEY S4Y ABOUT THE VOTE
IN NEMAHA COUNTY
Nemaha county had one of tho
warmest tights In thu state That
county is always cloao- At the repub
llciii county convention, Herbert
Howe, who has succeeded his father,
Church Howe, as head of that faction
controlled, and Tom Majors who want
ed to come to Lincoln again as a legis
lator, did not achieve his ambition.
Together will) Doc McGrew, who is
his lieutenant in Aubuin, they
organized a light to skin the legislative
ticket. In this they were successful.
Unprejudiced observers say that
the fusion nominees were realty bettet
equipped men than those named by
the republicans, and this g.ive the fus
ionists an advantage they maintained
in spite of the help that wm given
from the state committee and the big
speakers thrown into the county.

Often The Kidneys Are
Weakened by Over-Work.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
It used to be considered that only
urinary and bladder troubles were to he
traced to the kidneys,
but now modern
science proves that
nearly nil diseases
have their beginning
in the disorder of
these most important
organs.
The kidneys filter
and purify the blood
that is their work.
Therefore, when your kidneysaro wenfc
or out of order, you can understand how
quickly your entire body is affected and
how every organ seems to fail to do its
duty.
If you are sick or " feel badly," begin
taking the great kidney remedy, Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because as soon
as your kidneys are well they will help
all" thu other organs to health. A trial
will convince anyone.
If you are sick" you can make no mis
