The nearer Taft's nomination
the better things look for Bryan.
gets.
It begins to look as if Roosevelt him
self is in that republican national com
mittee at Chicago.
But Roosevelt will hardly be able to
make all the Cannon, Hughes and
Fairbanks men in the country vote for
Taft.
"Congress ha3 helped the buffalo,"
says the republican newspaper. Good.
The country will rejoice to learn that it
helped something.
Republican congressional aspirants
had better be looking for issues. None
have been manufactured in Washington
recently save those that will benefit the
democratic candidates.
Judging from the expressions of
some of the republican leaders, one
would think they would have the coun
try believe that the firm of Roosevelt,
Providence & Co. would have been able
to fill the prosperity order, if Provi
dence hadn't loafed on the job.
The fat-fryers can be depended upon
to aid the republican candidate for pres
ident. They are the same fellows that
Lawson tells about in hi3 book. The
democrats will be watching the fat
fryers and postmasters, who will proba
bly handle a small portion of the cam
paign funds.
There is still some talk that a
grand rush will be made to compel
Roosevelt to accept the nomination at
Chicago next week. "Rosey" would
suit the postmasters Letter than Taft.
They want to hold onto the offices, but
they are not so sure of doing so with
Taft as they are with Roosevelt. Any
thing to save the spoils.
We are wondering what the republi
can papers will hit upon next with which
to connect Mr. Bryan's good name.
They have about worn out the $15,000
proposition. His character as a mar. is
so spotless that it will Lehard for them
to accomplish the feat. But they will
stir up something, that, after a few
tirades, will drop as flat ?s a pancake.
Come on. bi-ys.
Tii people of Lincoln are now ex
periencing a taste of the fiood, for which
the State Journal has been poking fun
at Plattsmouth for a like misfortune.
The only differer.ee between Lincoln
and Plattsmouth is, the water soon dis
appears from the streets of this city,
while in the state capitol it remains for
a good length of time. Take your med
icine, Air. Journal, but don't throw any
more slurs on Plattsmouth when another
riooa visits us, tor you will have no
more room to talk.
The republican national platform has
been written just as it is to be adopted
by the Chicago convention, and while
the exact phraseology of the document
has not been learned, it has been defin
itely ascertained that it will declare
unequivocally for tariff revision and
stop right there. As to how the tariff
i3 to be revised whether up or down
the republican platform will not say one
word. It will declare that the republi
can party has an abiding faith in a re
publican congress, and that the republi
can congress can be depended upon to
revise the tariff.
Boom: lioomi: Boom!:! Do you
hear that? That's the way the people
of Plattsmouth will be aroused from
tbir peacefull slumbers on the morn
ing the Fourth of July, 190S. The
streets and buildings will be gaily dec
orated at an early hour to be in redines3
for the thousands of people who will be
here to witnes3 one of the greatest cel
ebrations in the history o&the old town.
Everybody is pushing the celebration.
As soon as the program is announced
you will see that we will have more to
entertain the visitors than ever before.
All the committees are working like
bees in the hive, and there is no such
word as failure with any of them.
Evidently, Nebraska is making a
better record for tornadoes than most
of the states. One nearly every day
for the past two weeks.
Mr. William F. Sheehan's little let
ter to William Jennings Bryan will
probably hold the belt for high-priced
literature. It contains less than 200
words, but Is worth $20,000 to the Peer
less Leader. Omaha Bee. Yes, and
it hurls the lie right into the teeth of
editor of the Bee and his ilk. That's
what hurts.
An old time republican stated in our
presence Saturday that Pollard should
be defeated for the nomination this year
because his ideas are too much eastern
for the people of the west. A congress
man who represents the western people
rightly, cannot possibly be for a ship-
subsidy, simply because he wants to
keep on the right side of the president.
"for official patronage, only."
There is but little U3e in holding a re
publican convention at Chicago. The
leaders have already "fixed things" for
either Taft or Roosevelt it is just as
liable to be one as the other. Taft
would be thrown to the rear on the first
jump if Roosevelt makes up his mind he
wants to run again. So far as any other
candidates are concerned the grafters
have everything all cut and dried the
way Teddy want3 it. Biliy will serve
the purpose, with Teddy in the back
ground to urge him onward to carry out
his centralization policy.
The attempt of the defamers to do
W. J. Bryan an injury, has fallen to the
ground like a bird shot in the air falls,
when clipped by the hunter's gun. They
first tried Governor Johnson to beat
lim, then the $20,000 campaign fund,
and the Lcrd only knows what they will
resort to next. But come on, boys, W.
J's shoulders are broad. He has stood
me vioorauons or your vile tongues so
ong, that he is getting used to it, and
he always naiU a lie to a sign-board
where the public can sae and read.
Since the Kansas City Times fell into
the hands of W. R. Nelson of the even
ing star, it has been considered a re
publican paper. Let this be as it may,
the editor has sufficient manhood to say
some things about right, anyway. In
regard to that $15,000 deal, the Times
su; s: '-Whatever Mr. Bryan's faults
may Le. he is politically and morally a
square man. The New York financiers
who managed the Parker campaign four
years a j are attacking Bryan trom the
wrong d.reeti- n. "
The democrats of Nebraska should
ponder well in their selection of their
candidate for governor. A man who
has never had any connection with either
the Berge or Shallenherger factions can
follow Mr. Bryan on to victory in th
state. Any other man tor governor
will be a detriment to our candidate
for president A man who will persist
in his nomination under such circum
stances should be sat down on pretty
hard by those who want harmony and
victory.
The democratic party will go before
the country this year with a platform
favoring every interest in common with
the best interest of the whole people.
The republican platform will favor the
trusts and money power of the east.
oryan is a inena oi tne wnoie people
and Taft is ready to favor any interest
that will furnish him the money to buy
the votes at the polls. Bryan laud3
those who defended the Union, while
Taft defames them right at the foot of
the monument of one of the noblest heros
this country ever produced General
U. S. Grant.
The Lincoln Herald editor hits the
Omaha Bee editor about right in the
following; "What a noise the hook
nosed Russian of the Omaha Bee makes
about that $15,000 the national demo
cratic committee gave to Mayor Jim, of
Omaha to boost the democratic cam
paign in Nebraska in 1904. But he does
not say a word about the hundreds of
thousands of Harriman-Roosevelt-An-
nanias boodle fund Mark Hanna scat
tered throughout Nebraska in 1900 to
carry the state for Roosevelt and the
trust magistrates."

"1 have used Peruna for catarrh of the

MR. SAMUEL A. SEAL., Route 2,
Treadway, Tenn., writes:
"It gives me great pleasure to testify
to the great good your med iclne, Peruna,
has done for me in a chronic ca.se of
catarrh of the stomach. I was confined
to my bed for some time, and could not
sit up. I had tried everything that I
could find recommended for catarrh,
without any benefit. I tried the best
physicians in Hancock County, with
little or no benefit. 1 then tried two of
the best physicians in Hawkins County,
and found they were doing me no good.
I was gradually growing worse.
"Then a friend of mine, passing by,
handed me one of your pamphlets, and
seeing how Peruna was recommended
for catarrh, 1 sent to Rogersville,
Tennessee, next morning, a distance of
about fifteen miles, and procured some
of your Peruna, and began taking same
according to directions, and after taking
it n few days I began to get better.
"I continued using it until I was able
to go to work on the farm again, and
now I am in very good health and do
work on my farm.
