I hereby announce myself as a candi
date for representative from the 3rd
legislative district, subject to the ap
proval of the republican voters at the
September primaries. Furthermore,
believing that tho voters arc entitled
to know my position on questions that
arc likely to be in issue before the next
legislature, I announce, that I am
strongly in favor of a county option
law, as being the best method of deal
ing with the liqnor traffic under present
conditions. I also favor the principle
of guaranteed bank deposits, allowing,
however, each individual bank to exer
cise the option of accebting or reject
ing its benefits.

As we go to press Friday
morning a drizzling rain is fall
ing. Mrs. Joe Harper of Auburn is
the guest of Mrs. C. P. Barker
this week.
Sam Littrell ha9 bought D. E.
Littrell's barber shop and will
endeavor to accommodate the
public.
Harry Russell's eyes have
been troubling him for some
time. Last Friday he went to
St. Joe and had an operation per
formed and a growth on the eye
balls removed. He returned
home Monday.
Clyde Hill, who went to Falls
City a few weeks ago and has
been working in the Journal of
fice, has been promoted to the
foremanship of that office. Clyde
is a good steady young man and
we are glad to hear of his ad
vancement.
We had a good rain Tuesday
night, accompanied by a little
hail and some hard wind. North
of here trees were broken down,
wheat stacks blown over, and
other damage done. The hail
was destructive in the neighbor
hood west of Brownville, ruining
corn for S. Horterman, A. L.
Lawrence, M. M. McComas and
others.
Runaways seem to be of fre
quent occurrence. Last Satu rday
Walter Collin got ready to drive
to town. His wife got in the
buggy but before Walter could
get in the horse ran, going
around the barn, upsetting the
buggy and then breaking it badly.
Mrs. Collin was bruised some but
was not much injured. The bug
gy, which had been used but a
few times, is a wreck.
If one feels dull and spiritless, in tho
snrintt or early summer, they call it
"Spring Fever. " But there is no fever
usually. It is the after eifeeta of our
winter habits. The nerves aro mostly
at fault. Tired, worn-out nerves leave
us languid, lifeless, and without spirit
or ambition. A few doses of Dr. bhoop's
Restorative will absolutely and quickly
chanire all of these depressing symp
toms. The Restorative of course won't
bring you back to full health in a day
or two. but it will do enough in 48
hours to satisfy you that the remedy is
reuching that "tired spot." Druggists
overvwhore aro advising its use as a
splendid and prompt general tonic. It
gives more vim and more spirit to tiie
snoonful than any other known nerve
or constitutional tonic. It sharpens a
failing appetite, aids digestion, frees
sluuirish livers and kidneys, and brings
new lif, strength and ambitiou. Test
it a few days and be convinced. Dr.
W. W. Keeling.
The Old Settlers' Picnic
The Twentieth Annual Reunion
and picnic of the Nemaha County
Old Settlers' association held here
Wednesday was a great success.
The attendance was about the
same probably as last year,
enough to fill the park comfort
ably, besides about 500 at the
ball game and lots of people on
the streets.
The rain the night previous
cooled tho atmosphere somewhat
and laid the dust in good shape.
Everything advertised was giv
en except the male quartet,
which was to have been furnished
by the band, but they failed to
get them. To make up for this
there was instrumental solos by
Miss Helen Hitte, juggling acts,
and performances by Baby Al
bertena,the 7-year-old contortion
ist and acrobat.
The program was the best ever
given at one of these picnics.
The First Regimental band of
Hiawatha, Kansas, is a good one
and gave plenty of music, both
during the day and at night. The
ladies' quartet of Peru was all
right and they certainly gave
splendid satisfaction. The same
can be said of the singing by
Mrs. Day, the instrumental mu
sic by Miss Hitte, and the read
ings by Miss Mae Jones.
Hon. G. W. Berge made a fine
address in the afternoon. He
was followed by Senator Burkett,
whose address, as is always the
case, was a splendid one. These
gentlemen are certainly fine en
tertainers, and the people of Ne
maha are always glad to listen
to them.
The base ball games were sat
isfactory to the lovers of the
game. The nrst game was won
by the Atchison team by a score
of 6 to 0, and the second game
by the Omaha team by a score of
5 to 2.
The concert in the evening was
well attended and greatly en
joyed. This will probably be
made a feature in the future.
The politicians and candidates
were out in great force.
Geo. D. Carrington, jr.. acted
as president of the day and made
a most excell ent presiding officer.
F. E. Hoover had a nice display
of fruit on the picnic grounds, in
charge of J. H. Littrell. He had
a display of peaches, plums and
grapes that were pronounced by
fruit men to be the finest
they have seen this year. The
display was a most creditable
one. ueo. lacKiy also had a
"WW
plate of fine seedling peaches,
great big ones.
John R. Mann and family have
arranged to move to Brownville
in September. A few weeks ago
R. T. Rainey, whose wife was
Mrs. Mann's sister, passed away
and his children now insist that
fie Manns occupy the residence.
The residence is a large two-story
brick, and is situated on a plot
of ground containing thirty-one
lots set out to fruit. Mr. Mann
will leave his stock, etc., at the
farm which he has rented to
Brice Cox, formerly of this neigh-
b rhood but who is now living at
Rapid City, South Dakota. The
Mann family have lived on this
farm for twenty-seven years.

clever colTee substitute was recently
produced by Dr. Shoop of Racine, Wis.
Not a grain of real colfco in it either
Dr. Shoop's Health Coffee is made
from pure toasted grains, with malt
nuts, etc. Really it would fool an ex-pert-who

An Old Settler Paralyzed at'
Picnic.
Mrs. Mary Kettell had a stroke
of paralysis on the picnic grounds
Wednesday forenoon and is lying
at her home in a precarious con
dition. She came in town with
her daughter and son-in-law,
Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Stanley, with
whom she makes her home. She
got out of the wagon and started
in the grounds with Mrs. W. T.
Russell. When in the park only
a short distance, Mrs. Kitteli was
stricken with paralysis and fell
over against Mrs. Russell. Dr.
Frazier was called, the patient
was taken to the home of A. G.
Warren, and everything possible
done for her relief. Thursday
morning she was taken home.
She is partly conscious. The
right side of her head and her
left arm are affected. She was
feeling a little better Thursday
with a possibility of her recovery.
In an article three weeks ago,
regarding the schools, we made
a serious mistake in our figures
on taxation. Taking Ed. Moore's
fine farm as a sample, we said it
was valued for assessing pur
poses at $100 per acre, and the
difference between last year's
school tax and this would amount
to only about 15 cents per acre,
provided there was a 25 mill levy
this year. We were thinking
when we wrote the article that
the valuation was the same as
last year, but this is not correct.
For the past four years this farm
was valued for assessment pur
poses at $8,000, and was assessed
at 2a per cent of this, or $1,600.
Last year the school tax at 17
mills was $27.20 or a fraction
over 24 cents per acre. This year
the land is valued at $12,000 and
assessed at $2,400. The school
tax at 25 mills will be $60, or a
fraction over, 54 cents an acre.
The increase of this year's tax
over last year's will be 30 cents
an acre, instead of 15 'cents, as
our figures showed three weeks
ago. But Ed does not object to
the increased tax and says he is
willing to pay this, but doesn't
want to run the district in debt.
Neither do we.
Mrs. Thomas Teare, Mrs. Clyde
Teare and the former's eight-year-old
granddaughter, Mona
Teare of Nebraska City, were re
turning from Auburn last Thurs
day evening, driving a team
hitched to a buggy, when a tug
came down, hitting one horse
which caused it t run. Theon two
more tugs came unfastened and
believing the four were loose.
Mrs. Clyde Teare threw down the
lines thinking she had not better
try to hold the runaway horses.
Then the ladies noticed that one
tug was still fastened to the bug
gy. They managed to again get
hold of the lines, and althouth
the horses ran a mile with but
one tug fastened to the buggy,
the ladies were able to keep them
in the road and finally stopped
them when going up a hill. The
buggy tongue was broken twice,
but otherwise the runaway was
without damage. Stella Press.

Catarrh
To provo unquestionably, and beyond any doubt,
that Catarrh of tho nose and throat can bo cured,
1 am furnishing patients through drtigglsta, small
free Trial Boxes of Dr. Shoop's Catarrh Curo.
I do this because I am so certain, that Dr. Bhoop's
Catarrh Cure will bring actual substantial help.
Nothing certainly, Is so convincing as a physical
test ot any article of real, genuine merit. But that
article must possess true merit, else the test will
condemn, rather than advance it. Dr. Shoop's
Catarrh Cure is a snow white, healing antiseptic
balm, put up in beautiful nlckol capped glass Jars
at COc. Such soothing agents as Oil Eucalyptus,
Thymol, Menthol, etc.. are incorporated into m
velvety, cream like Petrolatum, imported by Dr.
Shoop from Europe If Catarrh of tho no3e and
throat has extended to the stomach, then by ull
means also use internally, Dr. Shoop's Restorative.
Stomach distress, a lack of general strength,
bloating, belching, biliousness, bad taste, etc.
urely call for Dr. Shoop's ltestoratlvo.
For imcompllcated catarrh only of tho nose and
throat nothing else, however, neod bo used but
