At the progressive congressional
convention held at Kearney last Sat
uhsi Frank L. Armstrong of Dawson
cdDrJty was nominated for congress
hfem the Sixth district.
Atibrew Morrlsey of Lincoln, demc
eflttl candidate for attorney general,
big protested against the nominees of
the progressive party going on the
ballot under that party designation,
and the matter will be threshed out
id the courts.
The ticket offered the people of the
state by the republican party is one
tbat every iover of good clean govern
ment can honestly and conscientiously
support. It is a good clean ticket
and worthy the support of alt re
publicans and good citizens of all
political parties.
The dreaded horse disease, menin
gitis, has made its appearance among
the horses In this county and horse
owners should take every precaution
to save their horses from this ailment.
Most authorities say that about the
only thing to do is to take the horses
off the pasture, and this should be
done to protect them. Remember an
ounce of prevention is worth a pound
of oure.
Andrew Morrlsey is the possessor
of a nomination for attorney general
from a political party that has no real
legal existence tor the past four years
the peoples Independent party-yet he
tttrying to prevent the nominees of
the progressive party from going on
the ballot under their party desig

the populist nomination we believe it
cqines with poor grace for him to

Governor Wilson wa3 an Iowa
visitor the first of the week, speaking
at the Inter-State fair at Sioux City
l*WTu esday. A fair crowd turned
Otytfo hear him and one paper claims
that 1$ an Indication that he will be
sleeted this year. We remember in
ip UM when William J. Bryan spoke
tb a crowd of thousands at Sioux
Olty,|and they went there to bear him
t0OM there was no Inter-State fair to
help draw the people, but notwith
standing the fact that thousands
went to hear him he was defeated by
nearly 100,000 votes in Iowa at that
eleotion.
Doc Bixby in State Journal: Judge
Howard’s grief over the apostasy of
Hike Harrington is the most pathetit
thing we have seeu in the publlo
prints since Brother Charley Pool an
nounced bis withdrawal from the
raoe for governor. The judge declares
that Mike has dug a ditch so deep and
wide that when he calls to his political
friends to come to the aid of the party,
they will find it impossible to do him
any service. We don't see any good
reason for blubbering about it, even if
all the judge says is literally true. In
beooming a bull moose,Mr. Harrington
may be jumping from the frying pan
into the fire but he is surely getting
away from mighty bad political
associations, and the change cannot
fall to be helpful and uplifting.
Shallenberfer Should Talk.
A. C. Shallenberger, democratic
nominee for U. S. Senator finds him
self severely complicated over the
“harvester trust” issue. In December,
1010, Mr. Shallenberger’s attorney
general, Arthur F. Mullen, requested
the writer’s presence in Omaha and
paid the expenses of the trip out of
the state treasury. Arriving at
Omaha the ouster petition against the
harvester trust was read to us, with
the surprising information that it was
not going to be filed.
The responsibility for keeping this
question out of court was plaoed at
Mr. Sballenberger’s door and the fact
that the governor’s brother, who is
general agsnt for the International
Harvester Company In Indiana, had
been a Nebraska visitor tbe week
previous was vividly pictured.
We naturally felt a deep regret
against tbe cbief executive as tbe case
had been prepared with the aid and
advice of Ex-Attorney General Jack
son of Kansas, Governor Hadley, At
oorney General Majors of Missouri and
other specialists. When the vouch
ers are checked up in the state treas
urer’s office it will be seen it was pre
pared at quite an expense.
Later another cat hopped out and
it looked as though the attorney gen
eral himself had been the malefactor
in fee simple.
The question of the responsibility
was put directly up to Mr. Shallen
berger. It was printed in bis home
paper and in twenty-five others. If
Mr. Shallenberger choses to default
and let public opinion render a judg
ment against him on the Mullen evi
dence that is his business. The ex
governor knows the kidney of the po
litical strnmpet for the harvester
trust by this time or he will if he goes
to dealing In facts. He win then find
that friendship, confidence, religion
and professional ethics are merely
merchandise to be auctioned to the
highest bidder.
Mr Shallenberger finds himself be
tween two fires.
Mr. Mullen is one of the most
practical men in Nebraska politics.
He knows the inside of the Shallen
berger administration and is there
fore in a position of dangerous
strategy for the would be senator.
The voters however will expect
Mr. Shallenberger to face tbe music
on this issue or the few Taft votes
he will get will be bonesome after
election day.—Creighton Liberal.
The Horse Disease.
During the past two weeks the
papers have been full of matter to the
effect that hundreds of horses have
been dying in Kansas from a disease
that has been called meningitis. The
disease has reached this county. J.
F. Shoemaker losing three head the
first of the week. D. A. Doyle lost a
fine mare Tuesday. We understand
that John Hickey has also lost one
horse and we hear that there have
been several head lost In the south
oountry and down near Page. Dr. D.
S. Palmer of Holdrege claimed to
have some luck in the treatment of
the disease and the following treat
ment Is reproduced for the benefit of
our readers.
“Lobelia was formerly used for
treatment of syphilis before mercury
oame into common use. Many phy
sicians in the last year or so are using
the hypodermic lobelia in dlsptheria
and tetanus Instead of the serums, as
it has proven to be a vegetable
antltoxine.
“The treatment (for the horse
meuingitls) is to Inject hypodermloally
an ounce of Sloyd’s hypodermic lobelia
every four hours, using a gallon of salt
water In the bowels every two hours.
The hypodermlo lobelia is the same
strength as the flued extract. The
fluid extract has been used with the
same results, but there Is no need In
forming an abscess at the point of
lnjeotlon.”
Bulletin From Washington.
During the last five months numer
ous reports have been received by the
bureau of animal Industry at Wash

forage poisoning In various sections of

Nebraska. It has usually occurred
when a hot, dry period has been
followed by rains, or during wet
seasons, especially those which are
characterized by frequent rains alter
nating with hot sunshine, producing
a damp, sultry atmosphere. Such
conditions are most favorable to the
productions of molds, and all out
breaks that have been Investigated by
the bureau have been traced to the
eating of unsound or moldy forage or
, feed, or to the drinking of water from
! wells or pools containing surface water
drained through decomposed or moldy
vegetation. The desease has beeo
shown to be also due to eating
damaged ensilage, bay, corn, brewer’s
grains, oats etc. Horses and mules at
pasture may contract the disease when
the growth of grass is so prof used that
it mates together and the lower part
dies and forments or becomes moldy.
No specific organism or virus has yet
been found which can be considered as
the cause of this disease.
The so-called cerebro spinal
meningitis of horses being an entirely
different disease from that which
occurs in man, the spmptoras as well
as the cause are distinctly different.
In the most rapid fatal attack death
takes place In from four to forty-eight
hours. Such eases begin with violent
trembling or stupor and extreme
weakness, or with staggering gait,
partial or total inability to swallow,
impairment of eyesight, followed by
partial or complete paralysis, inability
to stand, with marked delirium, dur
ing which the animal lying flat on its
side becomes violent and knocks and
bruises its head. In the second form
of the disease the same line of
symptons may be be noticed in a
milder degree. Difficulty in swallow
ing, slowness in chewing the food and
Inability to switch the tall are ob
served. Breathing becomes heavy
and noisy, and delirium may develop
with stiffening of the spinal muscles
or partial cramp of the neck and
jaws. Death occurs In from six to
ten days. In the last or mildest form
the lack of voluntary control of the
limbs becomes but slightly marked,
the power of swallowing Is never en
tirely lost, and the animal has no
fever, pain or unconscious movements
In those cases which get well the
animal begins to improve the fourth
day. and goes on to recovery. One
attack does not protect against a
second attack, as horses and mules
have been known to have the disease
two or three times.
The first principle in tbe treatment
of this disease consists in a total
change of feed and forage. Horses
kept in the stable should be fed with
sound forage and grain from an un
contamlnated source, even if such
food has to be brought from a distance.
Horses that have become affected
while atfpasture should be removed
from the field in which they have been
running. The animals should be
brought to the barn or corral and fed
on wholesome and clean feed and
forage. The water, unless from an
unpolluted source, should likewise be
changed.
At present this preventative treat
ment is the only satisfactory metnod
known for checking the disease, as all
medical remedies used have been un
satisfactory in the vast majority of
cases. The first step is to empty the
bowls and remove the poisonous
puoducts, but on account of the
difficulty in swallowing, an aloes ball
or Glauber’s salt is hard to give. In
fact no remedy should be given
In the mouth if the throat is
paralyzed, as pbeumonla is liable to
result. Fifteens grains of barium
ohloride injected into the jugular vein
or two grains of eserin under tbe skin,
if the animal Is not too greatly de
pressed, will usually aot promptly.
Intestinal disinfectants such ^as
calomel, salicylic acid, or creolin are
also used. If much weakness Is shown
and the temperature is below normal
give aromatic spirits of ammonia,
digitalis, alcohol, ether, or camphor*
Rectal injections of warm water are
good, and warm blankets wrong out
of hot water may also be applied to
the body. Subsequent treatment
should consist of two-grain doses of
strychnine twice daily, or a mixture
of two drams tincture nux vomica and
one-half ounce of Fowler’s solution
given at one dose, and repeated three
times dally, to oombat the effect of
poison upon the rervous system.
