publish it. Mrs. Joseph Kalians, Peru,

stomach and frequent headaches. She

what Chamberlain’s Tablets have done
for me. They have helped my diges

using them I have been entirely well.”

John Howard’s Platform.
Having had the question asked of
me by several of the taxpayers dur
ing my campaign, as to what reforms
I stood for in case of my election,
will mention a few of what I think the
most important.
First. I believe we need more
competition in our bridge work. It
don’t seem good business to have one
firm doing all the work year after
year at their own figure.
Second: I believe the furnishing of
material for repairing bridges should
be advertised for and the contract let
to the lowest bidder.
Third. I believe in publishing the
supervisor’s proceedings they should
go a step further and tell what the
money was spent for in each item. It
would perhaps cost a trifle more but
the people could see what was being
done with their money.
Fourth. I believe it would be a
good idea if the supervisors did work
a trifle longer each day. Say from eight
in the morning until five in the even
ing.
These are a few of the reforms I
shall work for if the voters think
they can trust me as their hired man.
JOHN Q. HOWARD,
The People’s Candidate.

Obituary.
Mrs. John Barnes, aged 46 years,
died at her home north of Emmet last
Tuesday, October 20, 1914, and the re
mains were intered in the Protestant
cemetary here last Thursday after
noon, the funeral being held from the
Methodist church.
Deceased was born February 7,
1868, near Bushnell, 111. When she
was four years of age her parents
moved to Nebraska, settling on a
farm in Polk county, where she re
mained until her marriage to John
Barnes, of Wayland, Neb., September
27, 1886. They made their home at
Wayland until three years ago when
they moved to this county on a farm
they purchased northeast of this city,
where deceased lived up to the time
of her death.
At the age of eighteen she united
with the Methodist church and was a
devoted church member all her life. 1
Seven children are left to mourn
the departure of a kind and loving
mother, her husband having passed 1
to the great beyond a little over a '
year ago. The children are: Mrs. 1
Ralph Ball, Shelby, Neb., Mrs. Edna *
Summerstedt, Shelby, Nebraska, Mrs. ’
Julia Luben, Nora, Ruth, Arthur and
Silas, who are at home. She also 1
leaves to mourn her death, her father, ‘
John Hoeffer, of North Dakota, five *
sisters, three brothers and two grand- s
mothers. The family have the heart- 5
felt sympathy of their many friendss *
in this vicinity on their bereavement. s

Biglin Will Handle Dodge Bros. Car.
Official announcement is made by
Dodge Brothers, Detroit, of the select
ion of Mr. O. F. Biglin to handle the
forthcoming Dodge Brothers motor
car in O’Neill and Holt" county.
The rivalry on the part of dealers to
represent this new car has been in
tense, not only in O’Neill, but through
out the country—as high as 31 ap
plications having been received from
dealers in some of the large cities. It
is therefore a distinct compliment to
Mr. Biglin that he has been successful
in securing this most coveted dealer
ship.
Dodge Brothers are widely known
in the automobile industry as the
largest manufacturers of parts in the
world. It is stated on good authority
that they have «upplied the vital parts ■
to over 500,000 of the 1,250,000 cars
now in use in this country.
Because of their tremendous manu
facturing facilities, their high finan
cial standing, and their wide ex
perience in the manufacture of parts,
it is generally conceded that the car
they will market this fall will set a
new standard in automobile values.
Their car has been called the “Car of
Mystery” because of the fact that no
word has been given out as to price,
dimensions or equipment. In spite of
this fact, the reputation of Dodge
Brothers is such that the best dealers
throughout the country are taking on
the line, “because,” as Mr. Biglin
says, “it is inconcevivable that a con
cern of the character of Dodge
Brothers should manufacture a car
that would not play a very large part
in establishing automobile values for
the future.”
Dodge Brothers are fortunate in se
curing such a representative dealer in
O’Neill.
The success of the new car in the
hands of O. F. Biglin is assured.
CONGRESSMAN KINKAID
FOR RE-ELECTION
Make special effort for development
of Western Nebraska. Seeks legisla
tion yet this Congress for guarantee
of payment of deposits In national
banks; for the making of farm loans
at low rates of Interest; and for
monthly payment of soldiers’ pen
sions.
Favor economizing in expenditures
to avoid the necessity for a war tax.
Believe purchase of ships under
Hags of belligerent nations would con
stitute violation of neutrality policy.
Assume voters have recognized it
to be my duty to remain in attend
ance of the session until adjournment,
notwithstanding the campaign is on.
Highly appreciative of former gen
erous support, I thank voters for
their consideration in the present
campaign.

Uttley Replies to the Independent.
Editor Frontier: I see in last week’s
independent as article entitled “Uttley
Replies.” This would lead some peo
jle to think that perhaps I had written
hat article, such however is not the
:ase. It is however just such an
irticle as 1 would expect to come from
hat source. All there is in that ar
icle, that says anything at all, is an
ibsolute falsehood, as can be shown by
ixamining the records. They first
ay, “Mr. Uttley had a case against
he board in Justice McCafferty’s
ourt a short time ago and the case
vas found to have no merit.” It is
rue I filed a case in McCafferty’s
ourt, and by an oversight of the jus
ice he failed to sign the summons
ufficient to give the court jurisdiction
o nothing could be done. The case
as been refiled and new summons is
ued, returnable October 31st, at ten
’clock, at which time we will probably
ee whether there is any merit in the
ase. This explains this one case.
They next say, “And again he had the
ounty board in the district court, and
lad the case thrown out.” This case
presume refers to the case I began
o restrain the county board from
paying out money for county bridges
milt by them wrongfully, as I claimed,
luring the year 1913. This case, at
he earnest solicitation of the county
loard, and their agreement to pay no
pills for that work except the same
vere checked over and approved by
he State Engineer, and they paying
ill costs. I had it dismissed, without
irejudice. I brought another case
igainst the county board, and the
Western Bridge and Construction
Company, to prevent their building
iny bridge during the year 1914, un
ler what I claimed was an illegal and
inlawful contract. This case was tried
othe district court, some three or four
veeks ago, and by the court taken
inder advisement at the time; and so
'ar as I have any knowledge, no de
:ision has yet been rendered.
I stated in my former article “that
mother suit was about to be brought
igainst the county board for a plain
ind clever violation of Section 6427 of
he 1913 Statutes of the State of Ne

braska, yet they say in this last article
that I have made no specific charge
against the board.
So far as the political part of thii
article is concerned, I have only thii
to say: When I commenced my pro
ceedings against the board, the ques
tion of politics did not enter my mind
nor did I make any inquiry to ascer
tain whether or not any of the mem
bers of the board were likely to be
candidates for re-election or not. 1
have been for more than a year taking
exceptions to some of the proceedings
of the board, and called their atten
tion specifically to what I claimed was
improper and wrongful, and in some
instances have notified the board both
openly and when in session that il
they proceeded to take certain actions
in certain matters, that suit would be
brought on their official bond to trj
and recover the same under the pro
visions of the statute, and I meant il
then, as much as I do now. The boarc
in their wisdom, have seen fit to en
tirely ignore my suggestions, now we
well let the courts decide, whether the
Statute means anything or whethei
the board is, as one member said dur
ing his campaign it was, “The whole
cheese in Holt county,” and for thaf
reason they must elect him as he
would practically control the board, and
I guess from all accounts, of where the
bridge money has been expended dur
ing his term of office, he has done it,
I am not making any threats, or any
thing in the nature of threats, but will
simply say this for the benefit of the
public, that it is posssible I may have
something to say to this individual
through the courts in which he and his
bonds-men will be the only persons
interested and not the majority of the
board, as in the proceedings I have
already begun and will begin in the
very near future.
bo far as Mr. Fauquier and Sullivan,
personally are conserned I personally
have no desire, or anxiety to see them
defeated at the polls, and had they
made a record of the doings as su
pervisors, as they should have done,
and as I advised at least one of them
to do, they would not now be involved
in any of this litigation. Personally
I believe them both to be honorable,
and well-meaning gentlemen, but like
Poor Dog Tray, they got into bad
company, and allowed that company
to dominate their actions with the
brave and bold suggestion, "That
nothing would be done, that all my
talk was bluff,” and even if it wasn’t
I had no money to commence law
suits.” The latter part of this of
course, is largely true. I have no
more money than I need, but I pro
posse to make good what I say, even
though it makes it necessary for me
to go without a winter overcoat. The
same kind of work that has been go
ing on, went on a few years ago un
til it became necessary apparently to
murder one or two men, and the
county to spend several thousand dol
lars in fruitless litigation, because the
amounts involved had become so large
that the bonds-men, although sued and
judgment recovered, were unablp to
pay the same, and many of them are
to this day suffering the consequence
thereof.
As a last word let me say, “I care
not who is elected, it will not in the
least change my proceedings, nor my
feelings, for I have no personal ill-will
toward any man now on the board, or
to be elected hereafter but if my ideas
are right, and are vindicated by the
courts, as I firmly believe they will
be, it will undoubtedly prove a lesson
to future boards as to how they shall
proceed. In everything that I have
suggested to the board in my letters
through the paper their record is
absolutely silent, and there is the place
where the law provides that the pub
lic, and any tax-payer may go to find
out what the board has done in certair
matters, and being unable to find if
there, I have asked them to explain
, and no one except Mr. Fauquier has
j attempted to make any explanation
whatever.
i Very respectfuly yours,
i H. M. UTTLEY.
What Would You Do? !
There are many times when one
man questions another’s actions and
motives. Men act differently under
different circumstances. The question
is, what would you do right now if
you had a severe cold? Could you do f
better than to take Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy? It is highly recom
mended by people who have used it
for years and know its value. Mrs. |
O. E. Sargent, Peru, Ind., says, s’
"Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is "j
worth its weight in gold and I take
pleasure in recommending it.” For
sale by all dealers. 16-5
Gleanings.
The weather of late has been very
changeable, but the farmers work
goes merily on just the same. fp
Irvin Simonson is about to begin i
the erection of a new barn, which will
add materially to the natural beauty
of his farm.
We learned too late for our last l
items that Loren Simonson bought
himself a new car, and he brought it ji
up from Lincoln the same time that P
C .T Simonson brought his. They ar- g
rived with them last Monday. It is
rumored that C. J. Simonson will buy
a new car. What make it will be ye
writer did not learn. C. T. and L. A.
Simonsson have New Buicks, while
Adam Marlin owns a new Mitchell. |
The writer took a trip out to town
on the afternoon of the 22nd, which is |
the first time he has been in O’Neill
for over four years and to say that he
wa3 very much surprised atthegrowth
of the city, does not half express his
thoughts as he noted the many sub- !
stantial improvements which has been
added to the city since his last visit.
Consequently he thinks that O’Neill
is getting to be a metropolitan city, i,
which is due, no doubt, to the enter- 1
prising business men and commer
cial club.
Mrs. Hubbard and Mrs. C. T. Simon
son were pleasant callers at the Hatch
home on the 23rd inst.
The effect of the work being done
by the Nebraska Experiment Station,
and the agricultural press of the
country is apparent to the causal ob
server traveling through the country,
in the difference in the farming now
and what it used to be. Likewise it
is shown in the plan of farm buildings ■
and improved stock. Let the good j
work go on. I
