Farmer
Saw OnC Of Our Ad
vertisements lr a Newspaper.
It happened that shortly afterwards
lufsold some grain. lie opened a
checking account with us, depositing
the money he received from the sale of
his grain.
From that day to this, that farmer
has always kept an account with us.
Whenever he sells any produce from
the farm, he deposits the money in
hank and pays his obligations by check
because it is an advantage to him.
He never lias to bother his neighbor
for change. He can write out a check
for any amount. His check book is
of no use to any except himself, and is
money is safe in the bank.

MET. J. DOYLE AT MURRAY
He Spoke to i large Audience In That
Village Saturday Night.
A Journal reporter attended the
meeting advertised for T. J. iHiyle,
democratic candidate for congress, at
Murray Saturday night. It was evi
dent for some time before the hall was
opened that Mr. Doyle would be wel
comed by a good sized audience, as
farmers from every direction could be
observed entering the town to listen
to Mr. Doyle, and they all went home
feeling that they were well paid for
their trouble.
The meeting was called to order by
II. L. Oldham, who introduced Judge
II. D. Travis as the first speaker. And
the way he poured the hot shot Into
'Easy Money" Pollard was not slow.
He read a private letter which our
eminent" congressman sent out last
fall to the prohibitionists of the
county, asking them to vote the re
publican ticket, because the candi
dates on that ticket were temperate
while such candidates as W. D.
Wheeler, John I). McBride and him
self were drunkards, or words to that
effect. Many republicans present who
had never seen this letter, doubted its
genuineness, and when It was shown
to them they remarked that they had
ntended to vote for Tollard, but this
settled the matter with them. One
republican said that the man who as
plred to such a high and honorable po
sition as a member of congress, and
would stoop so low as to write such
letters and condemn men whose ex
cellent records are far above that of
Pollard, he could not now be Induced
to vote for him under any circum
stances. Short speeches were made by D. O.
Dwyer, candidate for county attorney,
and Frank M. Massle, candidate for
representative, who defined their po
sitions on the Issues before the people
of Cass county, and respectively so-
lclted the support of all present.
The Hon. T.J.Doyle waslntroduced
and as he went forward to the platform
he was greeted with great enthusiasm.
Mr. Doyle spoke for about one hour
and a half, and held bis audience
spellbound during the entire time.
Our candidate for congress favorably
Impressed bis audience, and many who
had never seen or heard Mr. Doylo;
were eager to grasp him by the hand
and tell him, that, while they were
republicans, they expected to vote for
him for congress.
At the close of his speech, Mr. Doyle
called attention to the slanderous cir
cular the republican congressional
committee were sending to the re
motest parts of the district, in the
hope of thus saving the hide of "Easy
Money" Pollard. The circular Is a
base lie through and through, and
gotten out to counteract "Easy
Money's" 11,900 graft from the U.S.
treasury. Mr. Doyle pronounces the
circular a base fabrication, which
demonstrates the desperate methods
the republican congressional commit
tee has resorted to In order to get even
with the charges preferred against the
man who has disgraced the people of
the First district. Our candidate for
congress Invited those who were any
ways Inclined to believe the charges
in the circular, to write tosucu repub
licans as Judge Holmes, and they
would soon learn that the document
was a bast lie. Mr. Doyle's explana
tion of the charges met with the ap
proval of all present, and we do not
believe thcro was even one republican
present who did not believe the circu
lar a lie.
Mr. Doyle was remarkably will re
ceived In Murray, and It was the coal
man remark that be was so far ahead
of Pollard In oratory and gentlemanly
bearing, that comparison was out of
the question. He made many friends
from the republican side of the house
and greatly enthused the democrats.
To say the least, the meeting was a
grand success In every particular.

QUITE H SERIOUS ACCIDENT
John Beighmann, i Prominent Farmer, Re
ceives Painful Injuries it Mynard.
Mynar.i, Neb., October 20 Special
to the Journal Yesterday afternoon,
about 3 o'clock, John Beighmann,
while engaged in unloading apples into
a car from a wagon, met with an acci
dent which will lay him up for several
days and perhaps weeks. He was
standing on the shoot at the car door,
when the same gave way, throwing
Mr. Beighmann to the ground, light
ing on, first hl. hands and then bis
head. One wrist was broken, and the
other badly sprained and bis head
bruised.
Mr. Beighmann Is one of Cass coun
ty's Industrious and well-to-do German
farmers, living southwest of Platts
mouth. Dr. J. S. Livingston was
called to attend the unfortunate man,
and says that nothing extremely seri
ous Is apprehended.
Burglar Visit Murray.
While In Murray Saturday night a
Journal reporter learned of the burg
larizing of James Root's residence.
For two weeks Mr. Eoot and family
were visiting Mends at BeaverClty,
Neb., and returned home Saturday
evening to find that their borne had
been entered by burglars, and many
valuable articles taken. All the silver-
wear and a new suit of clothes were
taken. Thcr.e was not a k nlfe, fork or
spoon left to use for supper. Evi
dently the burglarly was committed
the night before, as Mr. B. A. Root, a
near relative, had teen in the bouse
that day to see that everything was
all right.
Many of the cellars about town have
also been entered recently and canned
goods and other articles placed there
for winter pilfered. No clew to the
parties guilty of these misdemeanors.
HE WANTS $5,000 DAMAGES
Dr. Geo. W. Todd, Arrested fjr Refusing
to Paj Occupation Tax at Valley.Neb.
Dr. G. W. Todd, of Omaha, It seems,
went out to Valley, Neb., on a profes
sional trip and was arrested by the
town marshal for refusing to pay an
occupation tas of $1 per day, as pro
vided by ordinance, and he now sues
the town for damages. The Omaha
Bee, In speaking of the matter, says:
"Dr. George W. Todd, a dentist in
the Karbach block, not only objects
to paying tl a day for the privilege of
pulling the teeth of citizens of Valley,
but he wants that village and Oscar
Talbott, the town marshal, to pay him
$5,000 for alleged false arrest. The
village council passed an ordinance re
quiring visiting dentists to pay $1 a
day license fee. Dr. Todd refused to
pay It at first and was arrested by Tal
bott. Then he paid the money under
protest, but, he asserts the village au
thorities were wrong in levying the
tax. Suit for $",0,)0 was begun In dis
trict court Saturday. The $j0 repre
sents the money he paid under protest
to avoid belug rearrested."
Small Blaze at Weeping Water.
A special from Weeping Water, un
der date of October 28, says: "This
town narrowly escaped a bad fire yes
terday afternoon. About 2 o'clock, tire

"Sunny Side" meat market, which is
located In a nest of old wooden build
ings, but the fire had gotten but little
start when discovered and a prompt
response to the alarm by the volunteer
fire company, soon had It out and only
a very little damage was done. There
wasastrohg wind blowing from the
north, and the fire started In the north
end of the building, 'which Is, entirely
surrounded by old wooden buildings,
and had it not been discovered hi time
would have completely cleailed out
that corner."

The Pain
Family
You know them: they are
numerous, ami make their
presence felt every where. The
names of the family are Head
ache, Toothache, Karachi?,
backache, Stomach ache, Neu
ralgia, etc. They arc sentinels
that warn you of any derange
ment of your system. When
the brain nerves become ex
hausted or irritated, Headache
makes you miserable; if the
stomach nerves arc weak, in
digestion results, and you
double up with pain, and if the
more prominent nerves are af
fected, Neuralgia simply makes
life unendurable. The way to
stop pain is to soothe and
strengthen the nerves. Dr.
Miles' Anti-rain Pills do this.

Through a letter received by friends
in this city the sad intelligence of the
death of a former Cass countlan, John
W. Jennings at 8:43, a. m., yester
day at his home in Atchison, Kao.,
was conveyed to the Journal today.
The deceased, John W.Jennings, was
a vetern of the civil war, and a prom
inent pioneer settler of this county,
where, many old friends and acquaint
ances, who will regret to learn of his
demise, reside. Mr. Jennings served
this county as clerk for two terms,
1882-4, when the county offices were
located in the old dilapidated building
that they called a court house at that
me. He also held the Dosition of
commander of McConlhle post G. A.

The remains will arrive in this citv

which place the funeral will take
place at 2:30 p. m. Friday.
OThe following short biography of
mis pioneer or Nebraska, we take from
the "History of Nebraska:"
"John W. Jennlnes. countv clerk
Plattsmouth, was born in New Jersey,
1839. When oulte younir. he removed
with his parents to Schuyklll county,
rennsyivania. in 1S.j5 he came to Ne

gaged in real estate business for some
two years. Removing to Bellevue,
Neb., in 1857 heencraaied inthelnm.
ber business, continuing in it till 1861,
when he enlisted in the Second Iowa
Cavalry, serving till October, 1805:
wnen he was mustered out. he held
the rank of adjutant of the regiment,
having been promoted through tbe
various grades in regular order. Mr.
Jennings was then eneaeed In mer-
cantile business In Factoryvllle, Cass
county, reo,, till 1869; from then till
1872 he was employed as miller in a
flour mill, afterwards In various ca
pacities till he came to Plattsmouth.

The Greatest Mltfortune:
Captain nail, durlnar a conversation
with Scott, remarked, that people are
making too much fuss about the loss
of fortune. "Do you call it a small
misrortune to be ruined In money mat
ters?" "It is not so painful as th
loss of friends." "I grant that." "As
the loss of character." True again."
as tne loss Of health? "Ther vnn
have me." We certainly should pay
more attention to the nreservini? of
oui health than to the massing of
money. Do not say, when you are not
reeling well, that It amounts to noth
ing and will soon disappear. It mav.
but, what If it does develop Into a
serious sickness? If at the slightest
symptom or Indigestion you Immedi
ately use Trlner's American Elixir of

To Tell the Reason Why.
Sheriff Qulnton was in town Satur
day and left some documents with tho
county commissioners, notifying them
to appear before the supreme court
on November 7, for a hearing as to
why they refused to repair the Platte
river bridge. If the supreme court
decides that Cass and Sarpy counties
shall get busy, the bridge may be put
in passable shape. We understand
the commissioners of Sarpy county
have been served with notices the
same as in Cass. It Is not stated how
the bridge shall bo repaired, but the
papers state that the estimate is
about $7,000 for the repairs. The fig.
ures of tho bridge contractors wero
closo to if 1 3,000, so the board will have
to do better figuring If t hey get In the
