Fords fixed.” -o Frank Gotch, farmer champion champion wrestler of the world, again has retired. It is much easier to retire voluntarily than by meeting Joe Stecher. -o President Wilson should promptly call a special session of congress to settle that New York strike the strikers way. A majority of the strikers are voters. -o A certain manufacturer of optical goods advertised that President Wil son wears bi-focal glasses, giving him two points or ranges of vision at all times. This explains many things. A story, on election betting this fall in Nebraska, either indicates that the World-Herald practically concedes a republican victory, or else that some reporter, copy reader or city editor is about to be, fired. -o Prosperity has struck the Ewing Advocate to such an extent that it has increased its size from a five column to a six column quarto. We are glad to see the Advocate “grow with grow ing Ewing’,’ as the slogan goes. -o Chris Gruenther of Columbus, demo cratic politician and Hitchcock, lieu tenant, had his trousers and spending money stolen at the Paxton hotel in Omaha Monday night. We didn’t think the fued between the Bryanites and the followers of the senator had reached that stage. -o The Hitchcock democratic wiseacres now admit that Hughes, Sutton and the republican state ticket are more | than likely to win in Nebraska this fall, and are devoting their time to a supreme effort to re-elect the present senator.1 Everything else is to be sacrificed to accomplish this end. -o Now comes the word that President Wilson is going to abandon his policy of “watchful waiting,” in the shade of Shadow Lawn, and hike out to 1 Omaha to attend the Ak-Sar-Ben. v While at Omaha, it is understood, the President will be prevailed upon to r deliver one of his non-partisan ad- - dresses. Somebody must be “skeered.” I John Prindle Scott of Philadelphia, j who won the prize for writing the f music for the official Nebraska ode, didn’t begin writing music until after q he became deaf. We haven’t heard j this tune yet, but we have heard others 0 which we firmly believe were written' j by composers not only deaf, but also v blind and crippled with rheumatism. n -o- \ The straight-from-the-shoulder ad- t dress of John L. Kennedy, son of the e common people, and republican condi date for United States senator, at “ O’Neill Saturday evening, was thrill- h ing and convincing to his audience, c Will that of Senator Gilbert M. Hitch- b cock, the aristocrat, be as much so n next Saturday evening. o -o- o A Bacchanalin visitor to the county si fair, one day last week, was up before B the dispensor of justice the next a morning. “What is the charge?” in- f' quired hizzoner. “The Wilson three- tl step,” curtly replied the minion who had the visitor in '’ustody. “Ah. I see,” quoth justice, “one step forward, one step backward and then one side- h ways.” Then he hung one on the K visitor. a -o- n The Nebraska supreme court is in P the limelight this week. A present as- ’J sociate justice, the first of the week, J*. in a deposition testified to his former 1 interest in a combination which seems h to have made a practice of freezing ? out its small competitors any old way. A former chief justice was fined $10 “ and costs down in Hall county for ^ shooting two Chinese pheasants. Let u me goou worK go on. “j -—o ri President Wilson and his advisers, n likewise the Democratic national com- p mittee which doesn’t always advise rr with him are declaring heatedly and is at length that the President isn’t si frightened and may not make a tour si of the country to bolster up his cause, cl The President has announced that he ir has no “intention” of making a tour, si but that he will carry out the “plans n tentatively made for several speeches ti on public questions.” When asked whether Mr. Wilson would go as far s, west as the Pacific coast in making ti these speeches, Vance McCormick, a democratic national chairman, replied: “] “Hardly that far.” Aside from a ten p or fifteen thousand mile trip, the tl President probably will confine himself d to a few remarks from his “po’ch” at Ii Shadow Lawn. C1 -o- tl Mr. Taft Aroused. p St. Louis Globe-Democrat: When Secretary of War Baker unfairly t] sought to place responsibility upon Mr. " Taft for President Wilson’s blunder- c! ing in Mexico, the Globe-Democrat £ said that even the patience and good “ humor of Mr. Taft has its limitations, 7 and that they had probably been reach- 11 ed by such tactics. In the current n number of the Yale Review the former P president, dealing with our Mexican *" and other foreign relations, comes r very near a use of the short and ugly e word in this polite sentence: “I am " surprised that Secretary Baker seeks c to recognize Huerta by saying that I refused to do so. This is very far “ from the fact.” He-then reaches and 0 flips out the kemal of truth in the nut P by saying: “Ambassador Wilson ad- P vised recognition of Huerta, after P securing from him action upon the e, rightful claims of the United States in £ matters of dispute, and of her citizens i* for injuries sustained by them. Had a the Republican administration con tinued it would have recognized Huerta.” In this close following of the logic I of events, und of his own, argument, the former president renders a dis Samuel H. ; Sedgwick [ of York s Candidate for Re-election for r Supreme Judge His ability as a jur- , ist has been proven in thirteen years of effi cient service on the su preme bench of Ne braska. a c His public record is his chief en- a dorsement. ? r Ask your attorney—He knows r h -. . , e • ?.

Huerta, having iken action desired by the United tates, and being “the only official, de icto or de jure, exercising real power 1 Mexico for law and order,” Mr aft says that nothing but courtesy ue to his successor, about to take ffice, withheld him from recognizing iuerta before his own retirement. “It •as amateur diplomacy and states lanship,” he declares, “which led filson and Bryan to assume the right ) convict Huerta and declare him in igible.” “It was not for us,” he continues, to prescribe who should become the sad of that independent state.” He larges, and the record proves, “many peaches of international law.” These light be forgiven had contempt for all jr own precedents and violations of jr established continental policy re nted in speedy pacification of Mexico, esulting, as they have, in increasing id prolonging the miseries of an un irtunate people, what can be* said in mil* rlo-f/inon 9 -0 Exposing a Huge Deception. Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph: In is second swing around the circle Mr. ughes is fully sustaining his record 5 a 100 per cent campaigner. His ethods during his first tour sur -ised and disconcerted the Democrats, ho had counted confidently on a gnified, unimpassioned discussion of ie issues, quite in the manner of a upreme Court justice delivering an ainion. But Mr. Hughes put punch to his campaigning and he is keeping there. In his denunciation of the ay in which the Adamson wage-fix ig bill was made a law, in his Illinois jeeches, Mr. Hughes did not spare ie administration, and there is no >ason why he should. Democratic jwspapers rise to the height of im adence with their assertion that this atter should not be made a political sue, when the fact is that Democratic ■ump speakers, by their misrepre ■ntation of the object of the law, their aim that it established hours of labor stead of merely fixing wages, them dves have made it an issue and a ost important one for the considera on of thoughtful voters. The manner in which President Wil in, repudiating the principle of arbi ation in practice, through professing Imiration for the theory, demanded egislation without investigation,” irsonally supervising the jamming of ie measure through Congress, itself sserved to be vigorously condemned, provides abundant justification for iticism by right-minded persons. But ie subsequent course of Democratic artisan writers and speakers in at ‘mpting to give the people an en rely false impression of this law and hat it comprehends calls for public insure in unsparing measure. It is early to be seen, therefore, as has sen said, that the action of President Wilson, which he must now be repent ig in secret, is not merely a legiti iate but a leading issue of the cam aign This issue presents two dis nct phases: first, Mr. Wilson's sur inder to what he considered political tpediency at the expense of the public elfare and his assault on the prin ples that should govern all legisla on, and second, his defenders’ shame ss misrepresentations of the object f this wage-fixing law. On both oints Mr. Hughes is performing a ublic service by enlightening the peo le, and more power to him! There is /ery indication that the issue which ie Democrats themselves have made i going to prove a powerful boomer ng in November.

Many O’Neill people take their lives in their hands by neglecting the kid neys when they know these organs need help. Weak kidneys are respon sible for a vast amount of suffering and ill health—the slightest delay is dangerous. Use Doan’s Kidney Pills —a remedy that has helped thousands of kidney sufferers. Here is an O’Neill citizen’s recommendation: R. H. Mill, proprietor of confection ery store, O'Neill, says: “I have had no further need of Doan’s Kidney Pills since recommencing them some time ago. I still praise them because of the very satisfactory relief they gave me from backache and lameness I had when my kidneys were disordered.” Price 50c, at 'all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Mills had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. ■ C. J. MALONE of Inman, Nebr. Non-partisan candidate for judge of Holt County, who promises efficient and honest service, no politics or favorites ; in court, and more economy in the expenses of the office. Under the non-partisan law, candidates for judicial positions are not elected as party candi dates but are voted for on a ; separate ballot without party \ designation.

You don’t have to wait till next spring to buy your winter goods figure the 20 per cent now and go to the stores and if they don’t sell it to you at that price come to me. My goods are all marked with the 20 per cent off and you can buy just as cheap now as you can next spring besides if this war don’t stop it won’t be a ques tion of price in the spring it will be a question of where you can get the goods. I have flour, Bran, Shorts, Tankage, Block Salt and the whole works here now. Chickens are a little higher, so are Eggs and Butter. Sugar seems to have started back up. I believe it’s about the best time now to buy goods you will see for months to come. Bring in any orders you feel you should send for and let me have a shot at them. No matter what anyone else says you can do better here. Cash Does It CONGRESSMAN M. P.
