Hi. Loreozo Crounse Ex-Governor of Nebraska, Will address the people of O’Neill and vicinity, in the COURTHOUSE IN O’NEILL Wednesday eve, Oct. 18,1899. Governor Crounse is one of the ablest speakers in the state, and was one ot the best governors the state ever had. Come out and hear him. The republican rally at the court house last Baturdy night was an eye opener to the popocratic hosts in this county. It was one of the best and most enthus eastic meetings held in this city for many days. That patriotism and love of county was much in evidence was evident by the cheers that greeted the speakers throughout their addresses The meeting was called to order by It. It. Dickson and after music by the band he, in a few well chosen words, intro duced Hon. W. VV. Wood, of Itushville, republican candidate for District Judge. Mr. Wood said he did not come to O’Neill to make a partison political speech as he believed that a man who aspired to a seat upon the beuch where members of all political parties would probably be litigants, should not go be fore the people making partisan politi cal addresses. This was in marked contrast to the remarks of attorney Har rington, when he received the pop nom ination for judge, when he said if McKinley and Mark Hanna were placed upon the firing line the war would end shortly.” At the conclusion of Judge Wood's address he was loudly cheered. The chairman then introduced Hon. Norris Brown, who made the race for congress against W. L. Greene, a year ago. Mr. Brown was loudly cheered as he stepped to the front, and faced the audience. He said it was one year ago tonight since he address a gathering in O’Neill, it being the Green—Brown debate. He then paid an eloquent tribute to the late congressman Green couched in the beatiful eloquent lan guage of the polished orator. Mr. Brown then got down to a discussion of the issues of the day, quoting at some length from the speaches of ex Senator Allen, who, when in the senate advocted the policy that is now used by the administration in the Philipine Islands. A pop thought to display his smartness by interrupting the speaker but he only displayed his ignorance, and felt sorry ;he had murmured before the speaker was through with him. Mr. Brown made a good, forceful and logical address and was liberaly applauded. Wir.. Fallon,one of the strongest democrats in the city, says it was the best he ever heard from a republican stand point, the soundest, most logical and convincing. Mr. Brown as on the occasion of his former visit made many friends in O'Neill who will be pleased to welcome him back at any time. COPhIh To our custhmers New * *V Years a first class piano. 15 5 J.

Cassidy celebrating high mass. Mr. Dailey was taken sick about the middle of Septem ber with sore throat, which after a few days broke on the inside, and it was thought that he would soon be well; but other complications set in, and although everything that medical skill, loving hearts and willing hands could do to prolong his life, he peacefully passed away on the above date. John Dailey was born in Ireland in 1880. In 1S63 he married Miss Ellen Curry; shortly thereafter coming to America, and locating at Silverbrook, Schuylkill county, I*a., where he resided for a number ot years. In 1879 Mr. Dailey came to Holt county, and located in the northeastern part of Emmett township, where he resided until his death. Mr. Dailey was a mau possessing the most sterling qualities of honorable, honest manhood; upright in his dealings with his fellowmen. Ilis word was an absolute guarantee that whatever he snid he would do was sure to be done in strict accordance with his promise. That he was held in high esteem by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance was best attested toby one of the largest funerals ever seen in O'Neill. Ilis death is universally regretted by all who knew him, but he is especially mourned in the neighborhood, where for twenty years he had been one of the most desirable neighbors, and where, by his unceasing labors and industrious habits the com fortable home, the commodious out* buildings and well-cultivated farms will be lasting reminders of a kind friend and neighbor. Mr. Dailey leaves a disconsolate wife and seven grown children to mourn the loss of an affectionate husband and a kind, indulgent parent; a brother in Schuylkill county, Pa, and a sister in California. The children are M. J. Daily, superintendent of the Silver King mine, Park City, Utah; Mrs. P. J. Big lin, of O’Neill; Patrick; Nellie, Mary* John and Willie, all of whom were present during the sickness of Mr. Dailey, except Patrick, who is in Alaska. *** In Meworiam. Ilarvey Ilerbert Bentley, aged 28, died suddenly and peacefully of tuberculosis at the home of his parents in O’Neill, Wednesday, Oct. 4, 1899, at 9:30 a. m. Taken away in early life, in the strength and vigor of manhood, his death was particularly sad, yet he lived well those few short years, and they 'are full of blessed and hallowed memories. He was born in Floyd county, Iowa, and when ten years old united with the Presbyterian church. Moving to O’Neill a few years later lie connected himself with the Presbyterian church here, and attended the O’Neill High School, from which he graduated in 1888. After wards he spent some time in Bellevue college, where he was especially com mended for his studious habits and high scholarship. While employed for the past three ycatB as bookkeeper for the William Krotter Cumber Company, at Stuart, he was chosen superintendent of the [Sun day school, and president of the Chris tian Eudeavor, and also elder of the Presbyterian church in O’Neill. Feel ing oftentimes that the work was too burdensome, he still did not shirk the responsibility but labored on till God called him higher to a more abundant life. The large concourse of people who attended his funeral, and the floial tributes testified to the esteem in which he was held in the community. Ilev. Lowrie preached the sermon, assisted by Bevs. Hainer, Clinton Lowrie and Hutchinson, after which the Highlander Fraternity bore his body to the grave, and pronounced the impressive words of its burial rite. C WHICH Willi L A C l fl 11 l Iliicicm IUC swelling of a rose-bud in the Spring, we luxuriate in the possession of a full blown flower while it lasts, and we sigh in sadness when its glory departs; but we find, even in the leaves—withered and seared—the fragrance of the rose; so, when a good man dies, all is not lost; his character, his example remains to bless and comfort. No more devoted son or brother could have been found, and while his death is mourned with a deep and sacred grief, it is a sorrow mingled with joy that is not like those that have no hope; but rests upon a blessed confidence in an eternal rest and glorious immortal ity. A. L. Card of Thanks. We desire to express our heart-felt thanks ami gratitude to the kind friends who so ably assisted us in caring for our -on and brother during bis eickness, and at the time of his death, Mr. Bentley and Family. “16-1” The Old Reliable ® Corner Grocery Give ns a call.

Gregg During the winter of 1897 Mr. James Reed, one of tbe leading citizens and merchants of Clay, Clay county, W. V., struck his leg against a cake of ice in such a manner as to biuise it severely. It became very much swolen and pained him so badly that he could not walk without the aid of crutches. He was treated by physicians, also used several kinds of liniment and two and a half gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but nothing gave any relief until he began using Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. This brought almost a complete cure in a week’s time and be believes that bad he not used this remedy his leg would have had to be amputated amputated.
