COWPERTHWAITE, Auctioneer V p CPO<>^ OwnPf* JAS. F. O’DONNELL, Clerk ^ WIICT A representative of The Frontier had the pleasure of attending the Chambers fair Wednesday and Thurs day of last week. Chambers is always a good place to go to because of the hospitality and warm heartedness of the people over that way. And then they make it a point when they have a fair for everybody to get out and make the thing go. The exhibition of agricultural products, though some what curtailed in quantity over other years, we were told, on account of an excessively wet season, was a fine testimonial to the productiveness of the famous South Fork valley. Near ly all kinds of grains, vegetables and fruits were on exhibition and some as tine specimens as can be seen any where were on displat. The live stock department showed that the stock men of southern Ilolt are not slow in the production of high grade cattle, horses, hogs and poultry. Among the fine horse display was a 3-year-old black mare weighing 1(550 pounds that was about as perfect a piece of horse flesh in that class as can be found. The fair association was unable to put on the usual number of races this season owing to the bad condition of tl»e race track. There were some running races Thursday in which local horses were entered. Wiiy Colds are Dangerous. Because you have contracted ordi nary colds and recovered from them without treatment of any kind, do not for a moment imagine that colds are not dangerous. Everyone knows that pneumonia and chronic catarrh have their origin in a common cold Consumption is not caused by a cold but the cold prepares the system for the reception and development of the germs that would not otherwise have found lodgment. It is the same with all infectious diseases. Diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles and whooping cough are much more likely to be con tracted when the child has a cold. You will see from this that more real danger lurks in a cold than in any other of the common ailments. The easiest and quickest way to cure a cold is to take Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. The many remarkablecures effected by this preparation have made it a staple article of trade over a large part of the world. For sale by Gilli gan & Stout. Atkinson baseball fans feel pretty firisky since they got one on us. O’Neill would be ashamed to have to import a Western League team in order to defeat Atkinson. A Cut Rata Price. This is the first campaign in Ne braska in which political bosses cut no tigure. The people will nominate the candidates and afterwards elect them. You are one of the people and should take an active interest in these primaries and elections hereafter. Politics from now on means a square deal for the masses; lower pass enger rates, lower freight rates, less extortion by trusts and combinations. These things can only be accomplish ed by every honest voter making it a part of his business. The people can only know what is really going on by reading the newspapers. Hut you ought to read a newspaper that can print the truth about all the candi I dates; a paper that has no self-inter est in politics; whose owners are not office-holders or office-seekers. The publishers think the STATE JOUR NAL is such a paper and in order to prove it to you make the special offer of only 50 cents from now until after election: seventy-live cents if you want the Sunday also.

The otlicial organ of Judge Harring ton at O’Neill refers to his honor as the “peoples’ judge.” The depositors of the defunct Elkhorn Valley bank up there, to hear them talk, take a different view.

Did Judge Harrington appoint the man receiving the 18 votes?—Ewing Ad vocate. For Chronic Diarrhoea. “While in the army in 1863 I was taken with chronic diarrhoea,” says George M.

The Brunswica ball team crossed bats with Parker’s Warriors upon the local diamond last Thursday afternoon and those present witnessed a nice ex hibition of the national game. Charles Richter and Bill Wilson were the battery for O’Neill and Charley pitched a line game. lie allowed but three scattered singles and fanned thirteen of them. The Brunswick boys were not entitled to a score as the run they received came on a passed ball, a dead ball and a base on balls, in the lirst inning. After that there never was but three men faced him in one in ning; In fact but twenty-nine Bruns wick men came to bat in the nine innings. Crlnklaw and Cox were the battery for Brunswick. Crinklaw pitched a good heady game and held the O’Neill sluggers down to eight hits. These hits were bunched in the first and seventh innings and netted us five scores which gave us the game easily. II# fanned but three men which shows he had good support. Score: O’Neill.3 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 x—6 Brunswick.1 0000000 0—1 Hits: O’Neill8; Brunswick3. Struck out: Richter 13; Crlnklaw 3. Batter ies: O’Neill, Richter and Wilson; Brunswick, Crlnklaw and Cox. Um pire, O’Donnell. The boys went down to Brunswick Saturday and played the last game of the season against the Brunswick team upon their own grounds. O'Neill had defeated Brunswick two out of three games played and they were de termined to win the game so as to make it an even break with the O’Neill team for the season. But they failed to “qualify” and again went down to defeat before the O’Neill boys with the following score: O’Neill 5; Bruns wick 1. Charles Uichter was again on the rubber lor O’Neill and was about as stingy as he was in O’Neill on Thurs day as he allowed but four scattered hits and made so many of them lay down the bat on three strikes that the umpire forgot to score them. Perry and Dunaway did the twirling for Brunswick and lie done fairly well as he managed to hold the boys down to seven singles. The Brunswick team is comprised of a nice gentlemanly lot of boys and they freely admit—other would be claimants to the contrary— that O'Neill had the fastest ball team the past season of any town in west ern Nebraska._ _ Dangerous Golf. One of the rules of the Weston-super Mare (England) Golf club reads, “A ball may be lifted and dropped with the loss of a stroke when played with in the railings surrounding the powder magazine." There appears to be un element of dnnger In this kind of golf which reminds a London writer of a certain golf course on the West Afri can const, where the eighth and ninth holes are always optional, as several golfers are said to have been lost there owing to the proximity of the jungle, which is known to be a favor ite lair of the lion. Wyoh Haz«I, Not Witch Huai. The correct name for Hamamells vl£ glnlca Is not witch hazel, but wych hazel. Our plant has no connection with the magic of the water hunter. The blackthorn of England, Prunus splnosa, was the wood used In these divinations, or whatever these super stitious practices may be termed. Ha zel had n very wide meaning In the olden times, hnd the elm as well as the nut now known as such was hazel. One of these elms, now known aB ijJ mus montana, was the favorite Wood for making wyches, or provision chests, and was therefore known as the wych hazel. In the present day It is the wych elm. Our hamamells re ceived from the early settlers the name of wych hazel from the resemblance of the leaves to those of the wych ha zel or elm of the old world. Language reformers Imagining that wych should be spelled witch nre responsible for the confusion. Wych hazel Is the correct term for our plant Where the Difference Lay. “One of his complaints against his wife In the divorce suit” said the law yer, “was that she smoked cigarettes." “Oh, my goodness!

His campaign is pro gressing nicely thus far and there seems to be no cloud In his political sky. The republicans of the district seem bent on electing two republican judges.— Chadron Journal. The editor of the Long Pine Journal is out with his little hatchet after A Douglas and be proposes to keep as many votes away from him as possible; In his last paper this editor accuses Mr. Douglas of being tied up to cot porate Interests and he states that he prefers Harrington to Douglas. We admire the editor’s grit in cutting one of his party candidates but we at#, afraid he has gone a little wrong whedc he chooses Harrington in preference to Douglas. Alas! alas! Better oorm sidcr, Mr. Editor. While it is truffi that Mr. Douglas was a railroad at5| torney, it proves nothing except tbat^s he is a good lawyer, that he waa man with ability to handle business. It does not prove that he is unfit tobg judge or that if elected he would be unable to be fair in his decisions. As between Harrington and Douglas, the Lord deliver us from Harrington an<| give us Douglas.—Chadron Journal, .y. - J SURPLUS $55,000.00 | ■ O’NEILL NATL BANlT Safety Deposit Boxes for Rent.
