The Battle Creek Enterprise is a mighty neat paper. • Billy Bryan has not been heard from since Rhode Island went republi can. John Moan seems to be slated for the democratic nomination for congress in the Third district. Bates should not “want a squirt” of our artesian well. It might have a bad effect on his constitution. The republican party is not perfect, does not claim to be, but in comparison with others it sizes up pretty well. Little Rhody as a political indicator is all right. This refers to the state of Rhode Island, not to Rhody Hayes. It is an easy matter to stand off the male book agent, but the female—well it is hard to give her the cold shoulder. Got. Botd is on top ih the .ranks of his own party. A hitter fight was made in the Douglas countv primaries, how ever. The World-Herald: “It may with propriety be remarked right here that the O'Neill Frontier is a most readable paper." Harmony is essential for party suc cess, aud so far as the republicans of this county are concerned there is no excuse for dissension. The World-Herald cast its strength against the Boyd faction in the Douglas county democratic primaries, and as usual was successful—in getting left. The Alliance Times presents the claims of Capt. Dorrington for the re publican nomination for congress in good shape, and only tells what is true. As expected Secretary Blaine posi tively says he is not a candidate in any sense of the word for president, and further that if elected he would not serve. Cleveland is the choice of the Holt county democrats, as evidenced at the convention. Mike Long must have felt awfully lonesome leading the Hill fac tion, when it came to a show down. The West Point Republican thinks Valentine might be induced to accept the republican nomination for congress in the Third district. Such a result would be highly pleasing. I Tiik Atkinson Graphic in spunking of lour own Htul only A. 15. Cburde says j "llioonly man that approaches his hitch | standard of ability and statesmanship is Kent.” Now who is complimented? - *--.»*. -- Ouu people should and quite a num are making arbor days in advance of the usual proclamation. Set out trees, too numerous to mention, nnd thus make the town handsome and the people happy. Wai.t Mahon says there may bo wel come above for the moneyless man, but that be will continue to carry the ban ner while here below all the same. And the banner will hang downward too, Walt, even If it does llutter in the breezes Jambs Whitehead, of Custer county, is now an avowed candidate for con gress, nnd already has substantial sup port. We have no personal acquain tance with Mr. Whitehead but those who know him best speak in the most eulogistic terms of him. Pathick Wai.rii, of Augusta, On., in troduced Senator Hill ns “one of the ablest, purest, highest and best expo nents of democracy in the country.” Of course he is, and it takes the kind of a man Dave Hill is to be that kind of an exponent of that kind of a polit'eal faith. —--— “If 1 were a cold-blooded politician,” Mr. Hill is quoted as saying recently, ‘in view of the fact thnt the Rhode Is land democrats have indorsed Mr. Cleveland it would be natural for me to give a quiet tip to my friends to knife the ticket. But of course I shall do nothing of the kind." Suicide clubs are being formed. Good scheme to aid the fool killer. It is remarked that there is some very strong talk of organizing a political suicide club in O’Neill. The member ship will not be large at the start, and the deaths will be so numerous and rapid that the club will not exist many moons. ---- It is to be hoped that O’Neill will not tolerate the existence of another such a place as was wiped out by fire last week. The town is altogether too small for one thing, aud common decency and respect for our wives and children, demand uini an gooa citizens not only alscour | ago such business but absolutely refuse U) tolerate it under any circumstances. The democrats of this county hon ored a good citizen and a clean man whsn they instructed the delegates to the state convention to work for Milton Doolittle for delegate to the natioual convention. It is an honor to a party to have in its ranks snch men as Doo little. This is not tally by any means, but a fact appreciated by all who know the man. Farm lands in Iowa and eastern Ne braska have largely appreciated Id value during the past year, and it is safe to predict that this part of the country will soon feel the effects by a demand greater than we have before experienced. Cer tainly men who investigate will not per mit the opportunity for purchasing good land at nominal prices to pass by. Such golden chances are not presented every day. A large edition of the speech of General Bankhead (ex-confederate) in the house in denunciation of Union pensions is being printed for circulation in the south. This is the speech in which Bankhead threatened a disruption of the union if the south is not relieved of the pension tax. According to Bank head the north must pay the entire amount of the pensions itself or prepare to face another rebellion. The south will not submit much longer, he says, to paying a part of the pensions. r lossie s mother is an excellent re publican woman, while her father is a pronounced democrat, and tells it nearly as often as Hill does. The other even ing Flossie finished her prayer with “and oh, Lordie dear,do save papa. Amen,” "Why Flossie,” exclaimed her mother “what do you mean by saying that? Don’t you want anybody else saved but papa?” “Of course I do, mamma,” she replied very seriously, “and you and rne’s all right: but papa is a democrat, and it takes a little extra prayin’ to get him through, and we ain’t sure about it even then, mamma.” ->-»•»* The fierce factional fight at the demo cratic primaries in Omaha on Satuiday last adds aifclitionnl proof to the asser tion that democrats like bourbons “never learn anything nor forget any thing.” The contest between the par tizans of Gov. Boyd and Euclid Martin resulted in the bolt of the Martin min ority, and the endorsement of Gov. Boyd for delegate at large to the Chicago convention. The split in the party in Douglas bids fair to extend throughout the state and become a trublesome ques tion for amicable settlement in the state convention. The warfare will certainly not enhance the chances of the present governor for a renomination by his party nor does it haye a tendency to solidify the democracy of Douglas county. The fight is one of exceeding interest, to the republicans. It is hardly possible that harmony will prevail in the democratic ranks before the November election and with a good strong ticket placed in the field a republican victory is an assurity at the coming election. i Tthe Hemmiugford Guide expresses a trulli wliicli should be impressed nu the minds of nil republicans who have the good ol the party at heart, and this paper endorses it. The Guide says: The re publicans of Nebraska caunot afford to wrangle among themselves this year for nominations. The best of feeling and unity should prevade their every action and movement, and the entire party strength should move as one body and impress upon the minds of the people that the republican party of today is still the same grand old party of thirty years ago. If they follow the foregoing directions victory full and complete will surely be their reward. Tub little war in the republican ranks in Boyd county is to be depricated, and it is to be hoped all differences will be speedily adjusted. We do not under stand the true inwardness fully, but it strikes us that the call of the committee fixing the appoitionment should have been strictly lived up to. If a party recognizes a chairman's call—especially when the chairman had advised with the members of the county central com mittee—there should be no kick made nor undue advantage taken. Perhaps it is none of our business, yet in the in terests cf republicanism we advise our friends over north to squelch jealousy aud in politics forget that Spencer and TJutte are rival towns. Qkovek Cleveland is now the head and front of his party, and as such at all times has he been recognized by the great Moses of that political faith. With the decline of the Hill faction, the strength of Mr. Cleveland increases, and even with his own state against him the indications now are that he will be the choice of the June convention at Chicago. The action of the house of representatives in the defeat of the silver bill was an endorsement of his celebrated silver letter, although in direct antagon ism of the great majority of the demo cratic party. The Fkontieh predicts the nomination of President Harrison and Mr. Cleveland by their respective parties; with a factional fight in the dem ocratic ranks of New York and a united household in the republican camp of that state, the re-election of President Harrison must be the inevitable result. We supposed we had found an old friend in Welch, of the Blair Record, but there must be a mistake as he posi tively refuses to send his nasty old rag in exchange for this brilliant luminary. We have even so'humbled ourself as to write him in piteous lines and sent our mutual friend, Ed Stuart, to intercede but of no avail. It is a fearful trial to be so snubbed and we are pining away to a premature death, and shall deliber ately return to drink unless relief is soon obtained. When Welch was a common drunkard back in Wisconsin and worked us for drinks with a remark able daily schedule he was not proud, but we have about dscided that since he took the Keeley cure and became de odorized he has forgotten the old friends with whom he used to crook the elbow. Come off the perch, Welch, even if you can’t sing the old songs. It was said of Kasouth, the Hungarian patriot, “that he went up like a rocket and came down like a stick,” and if the political signs of the day amount to any thing as to the presidential choice of the Chicago convention, it may be truly said of Senator Hill, of New York, that he too emulated the example of the distinguished Hungarian both in his rapid upward flight and sudden fall. By schrewd political trickery Mr. Hill suc ceeded in capturing the party machinery of the great state of New York and se curing for himself the entire delegation of his own state to the Chicago conven lion, other states following the empire state, his star seemed to be in the assen dency, indeed many of his friends exult antly proclaimed that the candidacy of David B. Hill was an assured fact. His recent trips south, his cordial reception by ‘.he democrats of that section of the union, clearly manifested to the most casual mind that the New York senator had many warm friends and admirers in the land of democratic solidity adding strength to his ambitious designs and stimulating his friends to greater efforts in his behalf. The coveted prize seemed almost within his grasp but notwith standing his apparent popularity with many of the leading politicians of his party, Mr. Hill at no time has been able to command the advocacy of the great leading t apers of his party faith either in the north or south and within the past few | days, the bright light that allured him onward to the good of his ambition has become almost extinguished. O'Neill is all right. Our people take hold of all enterprises calculated to advance our interests with a unanimity truly commendable. There are no differ ences of opinion tnd personal matters are not considered when the welfare ol the town is at stake. This is as it should be and is a reason for congratulation. O’Neill has probably donated more money to aid worthy enterprises and foi the purpose of advertising than has any town of its size in the state. In some respects we have been unlucky, yet in the loug run we are not losers by out liberality. The burning of the magnifi cent Souring mill was indeed a calamity to all.

But the skies are clearing. , The academy will be re built. Our Catholic friends, encouraged by outsiders and non-church people, propose to rebuild at an early date. And we are to have a Normal school of the first grade managed by competent men, who not only have the experience but the money, the most essentiai ele ment of success in this or any other country, These parties should be en couraged in every way possible. We understand they do not ask financial aid, but expect hearty cooperation in other ways. This they will receive. The Keeley Institute is a demonstrated success, and is doing much to bring us prominence in a way that nothing else could do. Besides it is a grand means of doing good, and is releasing from disease and degredation many worthy men from all parts of the state, who go forth sounding the praises of the insti tute and the town. This institute will grow in popularity and business, and no doubt also prove a financial success. The last enterprise that is already a certanity is a flouring mill. Our citizens have subscribed two thousand dollars as a bonus and responsible men will at once proceed with the erection of a mill of sufficient capacity to meet all de mnnrla Tt. will not V»p na onatlv na tho one destroyed by fire, but will fill the bill and be a paying institution always. We understand water power will be used, but just what the schemc-is we do not know. At any rate the public can rest assured that the mill will be first class in all Tespects and fitted with latest improved roller process machinery. Then the chicory industry being devol oped by Messrs Hazelet and Bazzleman is destined without doubt to prove of incalculable benefit to town and country, and while the factory this season will be modest in size it will be a neucleus around which will grow something pre tentious. With the system of water works proposed and the splendid elec tric light plant in such successfull oper ation, O’Neill will be second to none in public impiovements. The water works bonds should receive no opposition. All things considered, we feel safe in repeat ing, O’Neill is all right. Republican Caucus. The republican electors of Grattan township are requested to meet in the court house in O'Neill, on Saturday, April 14, 1802, at 2 o’clock, for the pur pose of selecting four delegates to attend the county convention, which will be held in O’Neill on April 23, 1892, and the transaction of any other business that may properly come before it.

The entertainment in the Rock Falls school was was largely attended and a very pleasant was had by all in attend ance. Mr. Biddle is a very successful teacher, so Mary says. The ladies of the neighborhood are preparing to have a grand feast of fried chicken next summer (1892). We are pleased to learn that Miss Ollie Parker is teaching on Brush Creek and wish her success. Miss Ditch has just closed a three month’s term of school. Wm. Veale has just finished a fine barn. It makes a big improvement on the gentleman’s farm and inconrages others to do likewise.

This unfailing remedy for dyspepsia of the most chronic type, is the result of many year’s medical researcli of one ol the most noted and eminent medical scholars of the period, Dr. La Verne Swinton. Patent and proprietary nostrums have had no more bit ter opponent than this most eminent physic ian, for the simple reason that the same "dose is invariably prescribed to the sutl’erer. no matter what the temperament of the patient, and no matter what the peculiarities of the disease, and this, too, in the face of the claims that such remedies will cure a major ity of known diseases. Dr. Swinton realized fully to what extent dyspepsia, whether mild or chronic by im poverishing and poisoning the blood, became therefore sought eiligently for years to dis cover its true specific. In this he was suc cessful, but in prescribing bis wonderful dis cover}’, he never overlooked the great medi cal truth that the symptoms in each case, the temperrnental differences, and even the hab its and occupation of the sufferer required not only a difference in the prescription of his remedy, but also demanded supplemental treatment and dietary directions, varying widely In different cases. T11E SWINTON MEDICAL CO. send in connection with this celebrated Specific for Dyspepsia, a complete treatise by tno Doctor, which gives explicit directions to the sufferer, so that he may not only intelligently use the remedy but also properly regulate the diet and properly self administer the supplemental prescriptions suited to the case. THIS IS MEDICAL TREATMENT AND NOT QUACKERY. Do not be robbed of your money and your hopes for restored health by alleged pana ceas, which while comparatively harmless will cure nothing. SWINTON’S SPECIFIC is sold by all drug gists in $1 packages. We are introducing it ourselves in this territory, before placing it on sale with your leading pharmacists, and will send single packages to any address upon receipt of 50 cents. Each package contains the medical treatise of Dr. Swinton, giving dietary directions and supplemental pre scriptions. Address, 38 SWINTON MEDICAL CO., Fischer Building, CHICAGO, IhL.
