I feel it my duty to say a few
words in regard to Ely's Cream
Palm, ami I do so entirely without
solicitation. I have used it more
or less half a year, and have found
it to be most admirable. I have
suffered from catarrh of the worst
kind ever since I was a little boy
and I never hoped for cure, but
Cream Balm seems to do even that.
Many of my acquaintances have
used it witu excellnnt results.

the Convention.
The republican state central com
mittee met Saturcay afternoon in
the republican league head quar
ters for the purpose of locating the
state convention to elect four dele-gates-at-large
to the Minneapolis
convention.
Promptly at 2 o'clock Chairman
S. D. Mercer called the meeting to
order and Secretary Seeley called
' the roll. All members of the coin
' mittee except Mr. A. C. Lederman
! of Grand Island were present, either
; in person or by proxy. The com-
! mitteemen: were L. H. Wood, Violet;
( T. J. Majors; Peru; John C. Watson,

On motion of Mr. Simmons of
Seward the committee voted to take
up first all business of a public na
ture, and then go into executive
session.
Several communications from re
publican leagues and from republi
cans of Kearney and Buffalo county
were read, asking and urging the
committee to name Kearney as the
place for holding the state conven
tion. Mr. George O'Brien of Omaha
moved that Kearney be named as
the place for holding the conven
tion. Mr. Pierce of Lincoln heartily
seconded the motion.
Major Brown of the Kearney Hub
also seconded the motion. He sup
plemented the second by saying
that, with the convention held in
the central part of the state, the re
publican party could win back the
thousands of voters who had gone
off after false gods.
Captain McArdis of Lancaster
county seconded the motion in a
vigerous manner. The motion was
carried by a unanimous vote and
was followed by applause.
The committee then took up the
matter of fixing the time for hold
ing the convention.
Mr. P. I. Hail moved that the con
vention be held on the last Wednes
day in April at 11 o'clock. The mo
tion was seconded.
Mr. Brown of Kearney suggested
that preparations be made for a
grand republican love feast and
rally on the evening of the conven
tion daj. He hoped to see the cen
tral committee secure some man or j
men of national reputation to speak
to the peeple. Kearney would put
on campaign paint, and be in galla
attire, would furnish music and
banners and enthusiasm enough to !
make the occasion a hummer, and
it would scare the democrats and
independents out of a years growth
and enthuse the whole republican
party in Nebraska.
The motion fixing the date for the
state convention on Wednesday,
April 27, was carried, and
and then the executive committee
and the Buffalo county central
committee were requested to secure
speakers of national reputation to
address the grand mass meeting to
be held the same day as the con
vention. The committee then went into
executive session. The first matter
taken up was to decide the basis
upon which delegates were to be
selected to attend the. state conven.
tion. There was but very little dis
cussion upon the matter as the ma
jority of the committee fa-ored the
vote on Attorney General Hastings
as a basis. A motion to this effect
passed with practically no oppo
sition.
A resolution was offered to the
effect that at the convention at
Kearney the new state contral com
mittee be elected instead of wait
ing for the regular state conven
tion. The resolution was defeated.
Another resolution was offered
and passed which shut out- all
proxies at the state convention
None but the elected delegates or
their alternates will be allowed to
rote in the convention.
County central committees were
ur-'d by another resolution to
b.stir themselves in getting ood
republican liturature circulated in
larger quantities among the
readers, both in the towns and in
the country.
TREAT HIM WELL.
It You Love Illin, You Ought to Be Very
Counlderatr.
Ilecauae a man loves you, is that
any reason why you should be incon
siderate of him? writes Kuth Ashmore
in the Ladies' Home Journal.
iiiM.-ause he loves you, shall you give
no thought to the words you say to
him?
Because he loves you, shall you
laugh at his affection, and think his
expressions of it are funny?
Because he loves you, shall he be the
last to be thought of?
Because he loves you, shall he be
treated so that he wonders, after all,
if you have any love for him?
to put a tax on him in he waJy of prps.
ents an! entertainments that, it is just
possible, he can not afford?
Because he loves you, shall you never
think .it necessary to say the sweet
words of thanks for the courtesies he
shows vou?
Because he loves jrou, shall you not
! think it necessary to be at your bett
and sweetest for him?
Oh, you foolish girl! If this love is
worth having, if this love is real and
true, if it is really your sweetheart
who has come, then you possess a
great treasure, a treasure which you
may lose some day if you are not care
ful. Love is lost by thoughtlessness,
by incoiiMderation, and by selfishness
more than by any other M ay. Do you
want to lose your love? It is like
those old Venetian glasses, fine, slen-.
der and delicate; pour into one all the
great wealth of jour affection, and
the glass will hold it, but let one drop
of the poison of self-will or indifference
get there and the glass is shattered in
to a thousand pieces.
An Evident Moral.
A Maine woman who had an irre
ligious husband kept driving at him
until she linally got him to go to
churc h. Now mark how she was re
warded. Instead of following the serv
ice lie looked at the congregation and
noticed how much more handsomely
the other women were dressed than
his wife. The fact pricked him to the
heart as no words of the minister
could, and the next day he gave his
wife and told her to go and buy
some clothes. Need we enlarge on the
moral of this story? We think not.

SPECIAL MARKET LETTER.
W. G. Press & Co., Bankers & Commis
sion Merchants, Nos. 2 and 4 Sherman
Street. Chicago, in their last srvrial mar
ket letter say: The legitimate influences,
which have for So long a lime iailfl to
affect current values of wheat, a.- ; Jed
themselves during the past week, cau-ing
at times rapid and eiciting advances which
the heavier shorts vainly endeavored to
stay. The condition of affairs abroad,
which has, during the entire crop year,
been sufficiently alarming to warrant the
belief in higher prices than those recently
obtainable, was responsible for the sudden
change in the tone of our market, which
for several days refused to respond to the
daily advances scored in Europe, and until
the foreign markets refused to follow a
sharp decline here, occasioned by heavy
selling of long wheat which the sellers e
pected to repurchase at lower prices, the real
significance of the strength in other coun
tries was ignored, or not appreciated; but
when it became evident that the strength
was not simply the reflection of a specula
tive advance here: but the result ot con
sumptive and investment buying by mer
chants in France ind Germany, where the
property is in urgent demand, the trade
suddenly realized that wheat might advance
without the consent of professional short
sellers and that these m IK-is in indeavoring
to provide for their outstanding contracts
might become the most anxious buyers.
The continued strength abroad is due to
the distressing shortage in breads tuffs in
European countries, the unfavorable out
look of the g owij-g crop in France, th
fear that Russia wil: be as illy able to ex
port grain uexi year as this, anu lue pios
pect that America, which mu;t furnish the
bulk of next year's supplies, would produce
a crop greatly inferior to the one now being
mnrketed. As the world has been for
several years steadily reducing its reserves,
which are now very small, the prospect of
crop failures in any iniortarjt producing
country, naturally causes uneasint s; in the
great consuming countries, and their mark
ets in consequence are better guages of the
prospective supply than ours, which at
present is influenced by the magnitude of
domestic stocks. The week has been the
most unfavorable of the winter for the
growing crop which has suffered some im
pairment, and as it has yet to pass through
the most trying stage of its existance fur
ther injury will probably be sustained.
Foreigners have not only liought wheat in
their own markets but have been the most
persistent buyers of cash and futures in the
different grain centers of ours, and when
the opening of lake navigation permits of a
free movement to tide water, will doubtless
take the property and ship it. Receipts at
interior points continue small, farmers re
fusing to sell at present prices, and the visi
ble supply in consequence has legun de
creasing, and unless more grain is received
from first hands, will disappear rapidly
when exports agiin assume their former
magnitude. The most important factor in
the near future will be the course of foreign
markets which have taken the initiative in
the recent advance. If they continue strong,
ours must follow, but any indication of
weakness by them would cause a reaction
here unless crop news becomes exciting, or
the available stocks are rapidly depleted.
The anti-option bill has exerted a disquiet
ing influence and doubtless prevented an
earlier response to the encouraging foreign
and domestic news, but was impotent to
prevent an advance when the situation be
came strong enough to compel it.
The corn market has been comparatively
steady but dull, being influenced in its fluc
tuations by the action of wheat. Receipts
have been somewhat larger, but the grading
is still poor, but a small percentage of the
receipts inspecting "contract." The ex
port movement continues large, and as the
demand promises to continue, and will
probably become more urgent after the
opening of navigation, the supply can hard
ly prove excessive when farmers begin
their spring work, for, as we have frequent
ly stated, there is but little in cribs at coun
try stations, and the grain can only be ob
tained from the producer.
There has been but little to chronicle in
oats, the speculative market being neg
lected and closely following corn in its
fluctuations.
Provisions have ruled firm, aud at times
decidedly strong, the packers affording the
market support on all weak spots. One of
the most prominent is credited with ex
pressing a belief in much higher prices for
hogs and hog product.
So strong has the legitimate situation in
wheat, corn, oats and provisions become,
that speculative activity in the near future
is assured, and we believe all these com
modities should be purchased on all slight
pactions.
