Republican Candidate For Congress
IWdaBtWWWttHAIWBM-'' -' **-*;--■"’"t' ' A
1 am a candidate for the republican
nomination for Congress from the
sixth district. 1 believe In goad gov
ernment, a square deal, and that the
Roosevelt policies should be put Into
operation. I have always been op
posed to boss rule and machine poli
tics. I believe In representative gov
ernment; in government by the peo
ple and not by the corporations. I
believe in loyalty to republican prin
ciples and the protective tariff but do
not believe that downward revision
has been fully accomplished, partic
ularly with reference to woolen, cot
ton, lumber and wire schedules.
I believe a congressman should have
convictions (and courage enough to
vote them; that he snould not dodge,
sidestep and vote‘'present;” that he
should not insurge at home and stand
pat in Washington. That he should
keep his ante-election promises and
vote against Mr. Cannon for speaker
after having promised the people to
dd so; and he should not vote to tax
barbed wire at 115.00 per ton after
publicly announcing that it should be
placftd on the free list. A congress
man is elected by the public and paid
by the publlo to serve the public and
not to serve himself. He should be
satisfied to render public service for
the public salary and not to seek to
further enrich himself at the expense
of the public by acquiring coal lands
in Alaska belonging to the public
domain. His duty is to conserve the
publio resources and not to absord
them unto himself and Mr. Ballin
ger's assistance in acquiring a coal
claim In Alaskans not sufficient proof
of either the regularity or the ethics
of the transaction.

MINOR MENTION
When you hear a man sneering at
the local paper because it is not big,
cheap and newsy as the city papers,
you can safely bet he does not squand
er any of his wealth In assisting to
make it better and that generally the
paper has done more for him than he
has for It. The man who ^annot see
the benefits arising from a local news
paper is about as mnch value to a
town as a delinquent tax list.
The annual value of poultry and
eggs sold is more than that of the sil
ver, gold and pig iron produced. There
Is millions of money in poultry and
eggs, and but small capital required.
The annual import of eggs in England
approximates 100,000,000 dozen, and
into the United States 17,000,000 doz
en a year. Here is an industry in
which the demand is greater than our
home supply. Look well to the poul
try, and they will assist you to find
“golden egg.’’
The following candidates have filed

merberg, republican candidate for

publican candidate for supervisor in
the Seventh; D. J. Grimes, demo
cratic and Peoples Independent candi
date for supervisor in the Fifth; M. P
Sullivan, democrat candidate for sup
ervisor in the Third. For repretenta
tive, H. A. Allen, republican, is the
only candidate filed up to date.
At the celebration at Red Bird July
4th, the old cannon owned by “Back”
Berry land which has been used in fir
ing the national salute at all celebra
tions in the north country the past
twenty-five years, exploded and scat
teaed pices to the four winds of heav
en. Parts of the cannon were picked
up over a quarter of a mile from
where the piece had rested and, al
though the old gun was surrounded
by people when the explolson occurred
no one was in lured. The cannon was
one that was given to the Indians
Destroys
Hair Germs
Recentdiscoveries have shown
that falling hair is caused by
germs at the roots of the hair.
Therefore, to stop falling hair,
you must first completely de
stroy these germs. Ayer’s Hair
Vigor, new improved formula,
will certainly do this. Then
leave the rest to nature.
Does not change the color of the hair.

Recent discoveries have also proved that
dandruff is caused by germs on the scalp.
Therefore, to cure dandruff, the first thing
to do is to completely destroy these dan
druff germs. Here, the same Ayer’s Hair
Vigor will give the same splendid results.

stationed near Niobrara some forty
years ago to protect themselves from
hostile tribes and was given by the
Indians to Mr. Laraont, an old timer
who lived near Niobrara some twenty
years ago and was given to Mr. Berry
by Mr. Lamont shortly before his
death. The old cannon had a great
history but it had outlived its use
fulness.
A Frontier reader who has observ
ed the trend of the times clips these
pertinent questions from a paper and
submits them for some other readers
to answer:—“Who? Who sympathized
with you when your little girl was
sick? Was it Sears & Roebuck? Who
carried \o t last winter when you were
out of a Job and had no money? Was
ir Montgomery, Ward & Co., or was
it your home merchant? When you
want to raise money for your neigh
bor who has lost his house by fire or
some needy person in town, do you
write to the Fair store in Chicago, or
do you go to your home merchant?
How much does Seigel, Cooper & Co.
give toward keeping up the sidewalks
or paying the minister’s salary?
When you were sick how many nights
did the Larkin Soap Company sit up
with you? When your loved ones were
burled was it your home merchaat
who dropped the tears of sympathy
and uttered the cheering word, or was
it Marshall Field & Co? Patronize
home merchants.”
The remnants of the once proud and
populous populist party held a conven
tion in the office of tiie county attor
ney at the court house last Wednes
day aftefnoon. The convention was
composed of J. A. Robertson, Wm.
Lell, W. B. Cooper, L. A. Jillson and
four from O’Neill. Time was when
a little 12x14 room was not big enough
to hold all the believers in that faith
that were won’t to assemble at the
call of duty, but that day has passed
and they are now in the hopless min
ority, being used merely as a demo
cratic aid society to boost aspiring
democrats into office. The conven
tion selected a chairman and central
committee for the ensuing year and se
lected delegates to the state conven
tion. They did not adopt any platform,
evidently being content to accept the
one furnished them by thebourbon
ites. There was no enthusiasm evi
dent at the gathering, the delegates
evidently realizing that the day of
their power had passed into the great
beyond.
The democratic county convention
was held in the court room last Wed
nesday afternoon and was the poorest
attended and least exciting convention
held by democracy since their return
to life after the death of populism.
Outside of Iseven delegates from
O’Neill there were but six democrats
present: Felix Hale, J. M. Morgan, T.
J. Wilburn of Atkinson, E W. Wilcox
of Inman, S. A. Hickman of Sherid
an, Ed. Tighe of Willowdale. Frank
Campbell presided as a chairman and
G. W. Miles as secretary. Resolu- :
tions were adopted commending in ex
travagant language the administra
tion of Governor Shallenberger; de
nounced the republicans for not re
vising the tariff downward: commend
ed the last legislature for the work
performed and praised Senator Dono- 1
hoe and Representative Henry Tor
their legislative record; took a crack
at the peerless leader, W. J. Bryan,
for his stand upon the county option
measure by stating that because a
man was not an advocate of that
measure that it did not necessarily
mean that he was not a democrat; fav
ored an income tax; was opposed to a
plank in the state platform in favor
of couuty option and instructed the
delegates to the state convention to
vote against such a plank; in favor ol
the initiative and referendum and
Instructed the delegates to the county
convention to vote for the Insertion
of such a plank in the state platform.
The following delegates were elected
to the state convention: M. F. Harr
ington, A. F. Mullen, E. H. Whelan,
Sheridan Simmons, C. B. Scott, O. F.
Blglin, J. F. O’Donnell, J. P. McNich
ols, F. J. Hale, B. M. Johnson, .E W,
Wilcox, T. J. Wilburn.
