The Holiness Campmeeting The campmeeting in the park is attracting fair audiences and considerable interest is mani fested, although at this writing no converts have been made. The ministers are very earnest workers. They preach their doc trine but say they do not come here to tear down any other church. They believe in entire sanctification and in divine heal ing of all diseases. They are opposed to jewelry of all kinds, feathers in ladies' hats, and in general to fine clothing. The following have been present dur ing the meetings: Elders J. C. Shafer, S. S. Orr, A. J. Rum baugh, T. A. Vice, T. J. Mc Cracken, T. D. Lane, J. D. Force, E. D. Beeson, Frank Kern, Chas. Tuttle, S. S. James and Gillman Waldron. The church organization is en titled the Holiness Church of Christ. They believe in church organization, thus differing from the come-outers.

Many are restrained however by the fear of fevers and malaria. It is the knowing ones those who have used Electric Bitters, who go there without this fear, well knowing they are safe from malarious influence with Electric Bitters on hand. Cures blood poison too, biliousness, weakness and all stom ach, liver and kidney troubles. Guar anteed by Hill Bros., druggists. 25c. Saturday a display of ! ! i RITCHEV NEMAHA, NEB. $ Because some of the editor's preferred candidates were not nominated at the primaries, the Jonnson News makes a roar, and supports part of the candidates on the other ticket. This would be all right if the republican can didates were unfit for the "office or were not as well qualified as the other fellows, or had got the momination by unfair means. But nothing of this kind is charged. Bro. Stuck simply feels sore because a majority of the republicans thought some other candidate was better for the office than the man he was supporting. He doesn't even charge that his favorites were Deuer tnan the ones chosen. Keep sweet, Bro. Stuck. If your candidates had been chosen you would have been very indig nant if any republican had kick ed out of the traces. Do as you would be done by. Last Friday railroad men working in the Missouri Pacific yards and employes of the cann ing factory were startled at hear ing a terriffic crashing noise and seeing a great cloud of dust emi nating from a freight train which had just pulled out of the yards. The train was going at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour and when an examination was made it was found that a car had jump ed the track, had ripped up a guard rail and crunched through rotten ties, breaking a fish plate and frog, in a quarter of a mile running on the ground. It finally bounced on the track again and went along as smooth ly as if nothing had happened. The members of the train crew were not aware that anything had happened or that the train had narrowly escaped an awful wreck. It is a common saying among the Missouri Pacific em ployes that it is only the foreign cars that jump the track. The Missouri Pacific cars are as dilapidated as the road and readily adapted themselves to the awful conditions that prevail. Were this not a fact, they con tend, it would be impossible to run a train over the road. Au burn Republican. Best photos in southeastern Nebr., at Criley's. So Auburn. - r - r -
