THE SE311-WEEKLY NEWS-UEKALD, MOXDAY DECEMBER t-'S, 1908
CHIEF
NATIONAL
RANGE
Although this range may have
n exterior appearance resemb
ling the Ranges exhibited in other
stores ia the city, and therefore
does not appeal to you, as a sub
ject of special attraction. We
assure you that it is decidedlv
different from ail others in construction, containing those particular
features which make it the best Range ever offered to the user. The
firebox is so constructed that the heat ffU radiate into the oven at the
same moment a fire is started. Consequently, soon as the fire has at
tained the necessary 250 degrees of best, the oven also will register the
same temperature; therefore, it is ready to bake. The results of this
direct action will have a telling effect on the coal pile, saving nearly
half the fuel used in ordinary stoves. The fire back lining is guaranteed
for 5 years use. The front section of the top can be suspended, making
a convenient place for broiling or toasting. A special cover or lid on top
is arranged for cooking oat meal, millc,rice. etc., without fear of scorch
ing. The body is made up of three dintinct walls, which retain all heat
into the stove. If you will call at my store and examine this Range, you
will admit th?re is no other to equl it at prices that will meet
your approval. I have some special bargains in express wagons, childs
and Misses Rockers, bookcases,

Judge O'Day 's Court at Nehawka
Seems to be Non Persona
Grata, Nicht Wahr?
The first division of the Nehawka
Justice shop, which is presided over by
the editor when any presiding is done,
was cast in gloom and very much dis
appointed, when the cause entitled
Plybon and Cambell vs. William Dunn
came up for hearing.
The summons had been issued and
served "in due and ancient form," the
subpoenas served, the court had resur
rected his dignity from cold storage
where it had been sleeping for years,
the scales of justice had been polished
and the day and hour had arrived, the
populace was on the tiptoe of expec
tancy, the court was ready, and we will
admit that there was a slight tremor in
our voice as we welcomed Attorney C.
E. Tefft in anticipation of 4 'a day in
court." Mr. Tefft smiled and said,
"If your honor please I hold in my hand
an affidavit for a change of venue, al
leging bias, both on the part of this
honorable court, and also on the part of
Judge Foster, of Union."
Imagine our disappointment. The sun
hid its face in the legal horizon and re
fused to shine for us, and we reluct
antly very reluctantly remarked,
"seeing that you have the court circum
vented there is only one thing to do,
and that is to make the transfer," but
it was very evident that our words
lacked in that elegance and grace that
should always accompany voluntary
compliance. As it is Judge Barnes who
has been chosen as the judicial luminary
before whom the . cause will be tried,
the papers marked 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 have
been duly certified to, and are in his
posession.
We are sorry Attorney Tefft thus
lost a chance to make himself famous
as a trial lawyer, and thBt Col. Graves
will not be compelled to address us, "If
your honor ploase."
The amount claimed was $75, and the
dispute arose over the measurement of
a piece of ground which the plaintiffs
had grubbed "for the defendant at his
request." It will be a hotly contested
case.
And here the tears of disappointment
make it impossible to proceed, the
clouds grow dense, and we ring off.
Nehawka Register.
This is the second time Brother O'Day
has been "stung." The first time oc
curred about two months ago when a
lawyer from Avoca filed an affidavit
before Judge M. Archer demanding a
change of venue and set out that Judge
O. Tefft of Avoca was the only justice
in the county before whom his client
could hope for justice. Cheer up. Judge
O'Day. Every cloud hath a silver lin
ing. Remember you are saved the
"cussing" which one side or the other
had been sure to deliver on the render
ing of your choicest brand of justice.

Dr. Jacob F, Brendel and Miss!
Margaret L. Jameson at
Weeping Water.
The Weeping Water correspondent
to the State Journal rives the follow

Cass county's popular young people
which occurred at the Methodist church
at Weeping Water last Wednesday.
The correspondent says:
Wednesday evening in the M. E. !
church occurred the marriage of Dr. !
Jacob F. Brendel of Murray, to Miss
Margaret L. Jameson of Weeping
Water. Rev. H. W. Cope, pastor of
the church officiating. It was a very
pretty church wedding. The decora
tions were very appropriate and attrac
tive. Miss Ida Morse presided at the
organ and played the usual marches.
Miss Mary Jameson, sister of the bride,
sang beautifully "Call Me Thine Own."
In the evening a reception was held at
the home of the bride's parents. Mr.
and Mrs. T. F. Jameson and refresh
ments were served, lhe wedding was
a very large one and many beautiful
and valuable presents - were received.
Dr. and Mrs. Brendel left on the late
train for a wedding trip and visit in
Indiana. On their return they will be
at home in Murray, Cass county, where
the doctor has been in practice for
some time.
BORKETT'S SPEECH
Senior Senator from Nebraska
Holds Attention of Upper
House for Hours.
Special to the News-Herald.
Senator Burkett delivered a two hours
speech in the senate last Thursday upon
the advisability of postal savings banks.
His speech drew considerable fire from
those opposing the proposition, but the
senator maintained his position well in
the wordy combats with other senators.
The senator insisted that republicans
were pledged to the people to enact the
law, and that they ought not to juggle ;
with the people's confidence by failing
to pass the bill. He said that he had
long been persuaded of the correctness
of the idea and urged it as demanded
by the emergencies of these times. He
had not proceeded far when he was in
terrupted by a senator as to its con
stitutionality. Senator Burket replied
that the postoffice department was al
ready doing a money order business ar.d
charging exchange; it was carrying
freight and doing a messenger business;
that it had subsidized railroads and
steamship lines, and surely this was no
further from governmental function
than any of those were. That they
were all for the good of the people and
that if the constitution could include
those services he had no fear for its in
cluding this service. He also pointed
out that every time any legislation was
contemplated to have the government
do something for the people that it
was met first with doubt and fear of
constitutionality, and second with the
criticism that was visionary and social
istic. He illustrated this point by call
ing attention to the meet inspection
law, the pure food law, the railroad
rate bill and many others. He pointed
out that the general idea of most bank
ing systems that had been proposed
was for the uses of business. The con
trolling idea in each seemed to hz to
