republican county central
The
committee of Cass county Neb., is
hereby called to meet at Weeping
Water on Saturday March 26th at 1
o'clock p. m. Important busines
will come before the meeting and a
full attendance is earnestly re
quested. Orlando Tefft, Chairman.
A. L. Timblin, Secretary.
The steamship Indiana, which
sailed from Philadelphia on Wash
ington's birthday with provisions
for starving Russians, sailed into a
Russian harbor Wednesday. The
Indiana went in with the American
flag flying, to be welcomed with
salutes by Russian war vessels, by
Russian bands playing "The Star
Spangled Banner," and by crowds
of enthusiastic people. This was a
spectacle to stir the hearts of
people the world over, and this free
crift of trenerous Americans to
needy Russians may become a
landmark in a new order of
national comity. The Missouri,
with another ship load of pro
visions, will give impetus to the
sentiment created in Russia by the
arrival of the Indiana, and the
United- States will have achieved
one of the great victories of peace,
TO STRIKE BACK AT CANADA.
It is undeniable that there is con
siderable provocation for the
measure of retaliation against
Canada which Senator Morgan of
Alabama proposes. The senator
has introcuced a bill giving the
president power, by proclamation,
to suspend the operation of the
laws which permit the transit, free
of duty, of merchandise in bond to
and from Canada over United
States territory. This bill, if passed,
would deal a severe blow to the
Canadian Pacific railroad primarily,
and ultimately- it would seriously
injure every interest in the
Dominion. About four years ago
the senator presented a measure of
this sort, inspired, as it is now, by
Canada's action in the Behring Sea
matter, but it did not command the
popular favor. At the present time,
however, the bill is sure to receive
stronger support from all parties
than it did then.
It is tolerably well known to the
United States by this time that
Canada is the chief cause of the
hitch in the peaceful and satisfac
tory disposition of the seal fishery
question. Premier Salisbury's re
f usal to agree to an extension of the
modus vivendi in the waters of
Behring Sea is undoubtedly due to
Canada's hostility to the scheme.
All along the Canadians have been
opposed to the joint protection to
the seals which the United States
and England afforded. Most of the
poaching had been done by the
Canadians, and they protested
against the regulations which cur
tailed their liberties in this direc
tion. The world is interested in the
preservation of the seal life which
the Dominion pirates would
destroy utterly and permanently
within the next two or three years
were they permitted to gratify their
greed in killing these animals in
discriminately and at wholesale.
Of course it is well known that
the United States feels a warm
interest in its northern neighbor
We are bound to her by intimate
trade and social ties, which we are
desirous of rendering closer and
permanent Her conrwe in this
matter, however, Iisih been decidedly
hostile to our interests, and indi
rectly to tlie interests of the vet if
the world, from the start. 1 he seal
question would have been settled
several years aohad she exhibited
a fair amount of reason
,.rt
decency. Two or three times the
controversy between Great Britain
and the United States seemed to be
on the point of satisfactory adjust
ment when she stepped in and
brought the negotiations to
naught. The point in the affair has
now been almost reached when
further forbearance on our side
will be neither dignified nor wise.
It is true the retaliation which the
Alabaii.a senator proposes is some
what drastic, but it is doubtful if
any course less radical and heroic
would bring the Dominion to a
realizing- sense of the proprieties
of the situation. St. Louis Globe
Democrat. A FEW evenings ago the Journal
published an article which re
flected on the way Mr. Bird Critch
field kept the county clerk's office
and stating that he had kept the
office in a very loose manner, and
intimating that the ballots of the
last election had been tampered
J with. We have investigated
! matter and have found that
the
the
county clerk's office and its records
, had been kept in a much better
shape than any of his predecessors
had ever kept them and that the
ballots had been kept as safe as
possible with the means the county
provides, and if the ballots should
be kept any different than they
have been, it is the fault of the
county and not of Mr. Crilchfield.
A safe was rented to keep the
records of the clerk's office in, and
they have also had to keep a part of
the county judge's records in the
office. As soon as it was known that
there was to be a contest the bal
lots were taken out of the box where
they had been put and were placed
in the safe. If the ballots should
have been kept any different than
tney were, it was the fault of the
commissioners for' not providing
such a place.
The Herald reporter today inter
viewed Judge Ramsey in regard to
the testimony introduced on the
subject of the case of the ballots in
the Salisbury Dearing contest.
Judge Ramsey states, substantially
that while the testimony, to one
unacquainted with the situation of
the clerks office might lead to the
belief that proper and legal care
had not been taken of the ballot,
yet it was very apparent that Mr.
Critchfeld and Mr. Dickson
had used all facilities at
their command to care for the bal
lots; that the envelopes containing
the ballots from center precinct, as
the same was brought into court
was open and for that reason
objectional; that Mr. Dickson had
testified that when this package
was placed in the safe the seals
were intact; and that when the vote
of this precinct was counted and
the tally the same as the official
count, the idea of tampering with
the ballots- from this precinct was
erroneous.
if tne stnfce ot the miners in
England continues much longer
the United States will be shipping
coal to that country in large quan
tities, which we can easily do as
we have enough coal to supply
half of Europe.

La Grippe SuccessluUy Treated.
"I have just recovered from a sec
ond attack of the grip this year,"
says Mr. Jas. O. Jones, publisher of
the leader, Mexica Texas. 'In the
latter case I used Chamberlain's
Cough remedy, and I think with
considerable success, only being in
bed a little over two days, against
ten days for the first attnek. The
second attack, I am ratsfied. would
have been equally as bad as the
first but for the use of this remedy,
as I had to go to bed in about six
hours after being struck with it,
while in the first case I was able to
atiend to business about two days
before getting down. 59 cent bot

LaCrippe.
No healthy person need fear any
dangerous consequences from an
attack of la grippe if properly
treated. It is much the same as a
severe cold and requires precisely
the same treatment. Remain quiet
ly at home and take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy as directed for a se
vere cold and a prompt and com-
?lete recovery is sure to follow,
his remedy also counteracts any
tendency of la grippe to result in
pneumonia. Among the many
thousands who have used it during
the epidemics of the past two years
we have yet to learn of a single
case that has not recovered or that
has resulted in pneumonia. 25 and

I feel it my duty to say a few
words in regard to Ely's Cream
Balm, and 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.

Some Foolish People
allow a cough to run until it gets
beyond the reach of medicine They
say. "Oh, it will wear away," but in
most cases it wears them away.
Could they be induced to try the
successful Kemp's Balsam, which
is sold on a positive guarantee to
cure,: they would see the excellent
effect after taking the first dose.
