Mr. Atwood is taking his vaca tion at present, being at Lake Muskoka, Ontario, Canada. He writes that he is enjoying life at that resort and the postal shows a beautiful picture of the boat house and bathing pavilion at the lake. . A Quiet Day in Town Today was one of the quietest days in the city for some time. The heavy showers of the morning served to dam pen the ardor of those traveling, there being very few departures from the city aad hardly any incoming passen gers. The rain was quite heavy and the streets were left in a very muddy condition. The water ran down the center of main street like a minature river, making it amost impossible to get across without getting the fee twet. This served to keep the townpeople at home. The rain is a great thing for fall pastures and plowing but the gen eral opinion is that it came too late to be of any use to the corn. Some late corn might be benefited by hot weather following the rain but if the weather continues cool as it has been the past week it would be of no avail.

Berge's Appeal to the Democrats and Populists of Nebraska. I an? a candidate for governor on the democratic and people's independent tickets to lie voted for at the primaries Tuesday, September 1. The state is too large for a candidate to get over and see all the people I therefore take this means of. addressing a few words to those who may read this paper. I was a candidate four years ago and waged the best fight I could to free this state from all corporate domina tion and restore the state government fully back into the hands of the people. Although Roosevelt carried the state over Parker and Watson combined by more than 40,000 votes, I was defeated by only about 9,000 votes; although Roosevelt carried Douglas county by nearly 9,000, I carried it by more than 2,000. I believe I received this large vote because the people believed in the policies and principles I fought for. There are many issues in every cam paign but I believe the overshadowing issue is whether candidates shall be nominated and elected to office who have made no secret tie-up or bargain and sale with any special interest. If I ever go into the governor's chair I will go in absolutely free and without any promise directly or indirectly to any special interest. I will go into office with only the pledges openly and publicly made to all the people.' If, at the primaries I shall receive the nomination at the hands of the democratic and people's independent voters this year, I pledge the people of this state to battle along the lines I begun four years ago. And if elected I will show no favors to anyone but will give everybody a square deal so far as lies within my power. No spec ial interest will have any control over me or any pledge from me. If I can not be elected that way I would rather be defeated. I wish to say, however, to my friends over the state that those who are op posed to me are very active and it be hooves my frierds to be active also and get out every vote possible for me Tdesday, September 1. I must rely upon the volunteer work of my friends over the state at the primaries. George W. Berge. National Corn Exposition. Advance sheets of the premium list of the national corn exposition, which is to be held in Omaha during Decem ber, show that a ten ear sample of corn will win $1,000 in gold on the grand champion sweepstakes award, and in addition the same sample will also win the grand premier commonwealth tro phy valued at $1,000. Besides this large amount, in qualifying for the sweepstakes and trophy the sample will have won several hundred dollars in cash and merchandise premiums, thus 'making i the largest amount ever offered in a grain or grass contest. This is certainly making money on corn at least $250 per ear, and accord ing to Omaha papers the announcement of such a prize has excited so much wonder among the business men that many declare their intention of renting a "patch" of ground next year and if money will buy good seed and give a crop of corn good care, jump in after some of the prizes. Until they heard of the prizes which the corn exposition offered, they did not think it worth while to play with corn growing, but $2,500 is more than they win at the horse shows, golf tournaments and horse races. Louisville From the Courier. Mr. and Mrs. John Tumblin and daughter have gone to Hannibal, Mo., on account of the sickness of a son. C. E. Wood is having the ground moved on the hill in the southwest part of town for the erection of dwelling. Will Fitzgerald was up from Platts mouth to assist the boy in several games of ball forepart of the week. Will is one of the best amateur catchers in this part of the state. While excavating for C. E. Wood's new house in the southeast part of town a number of skeletons were un earthed, showing the spot to be the last resting place of some tribe of Indians. This part of the state was blessed with a good rain Tuesday night, and crop conditions are much improved. Pastures are looking fine and the out look for good corn yield is much better than ten days ago. J. W. Lee and wife are here this week visiting. Mr. Lee was at one time a resident of Louisville, and it was on his farm east of town that the oil kings of Omaha discovered coal, petroleum and gas particularly gas. The Duff Grain company's elevator near the Burlington tracks is being erected, work having been commenced last week. It will be remembered that the cyclone totally destroyed their ele vator here and they are just now build ing a new one. Nehawka (From the Ketrlster. ) J. L. Smith spent part of Notification week at Lincoln and visited relatives at Ilavelock. Mrs. Herman Smith accom panied him. J. E. Sanriing and wife e.xp'ect to leave in a few days for Deadwood, South Dakota, and other western points, where they will spend about three weeks in an outing.

They were accompanied by j Emma Hansen who will remain with them for seme time. Oscar Iloback was in town Wednes day making preparation for his father to move into their home.

Wilson of Redondo, California, on Aug ust 11th, 1903, a baby girl weighing 9 pounds." Of course everyone will know that the mother is known to us here as Laura Ingwersen, and will join in congratulating the happy parents. Willis O. Tucker accompanied by his little son came in for a visit with his father and other relatives Monday morning and will leave for his home this evening. He reports crops dam aged somewhat by the hot winds but that he is not very bad shape. There is considerable damaged being done by a worm that is eating the corn. Union From the Ledger. A fine little girl baby arrived at the home of James H. Frans and wife south west of town on Weduesday morning, August 19. Miss Leva Walker of Forest Grove, Oregon, arrived yesterday and is the guest of John Pearsley and wife, north west of town. Frank Bates and wife are happy be cause a new son weighing 11 J arrived at their home Friday morning, August 11. Gabe Austin was on the sick list last Friday and Saturday and had to miss the entire celebration, and we'll bet it hurt him a plenty. Fritz Trow of Kingfisher, Okla., ar rived here yesterday moring to make a visit with his relatives and numerous friends in this vicinity. Sheriff Quinton of Plattsmouth, changed cars here Tuesday, but declined to be interviewed until he could consult his attorney or wife.

Mrs. Louise Miekle, wrho has been ill for several months, has not been im proving of late, and Tuesday morning she was taken to Omaha where it is hoped that the hospital care and medi cal treatment may prove beneficial. Jack Chalfant and Bert Crawford rigged up a "prairie schooner" and started for Holt county Tuesday, to spend about three weeks in the vicinity of O'Neil. They will be in no hurry on the trip and will do all the hunting the law allows. J. C. Frank came from Madison, Mo., last week to meet his old acquaintances at the re-union and it was a very pleas ant meeting for him and his numerous friends. He departed for home on Sun day. The Union band has contracted to fur nish music for the Social Fair at Ne hawka on September 11 and 12. The fact that our band was heard by many Nehawka people during the re-union here and immediately engaged for the Nehawka Fair is proof that Union's ! Band is able to "deliver the goods." Frank Larsh arrived Thursday night of last week from Portland, Oregon, for the purpose of visiting relatives and friends here and at Nebraska City, also to attend our old settler's re-union. Frank finds everybody glad to meet him, and says he enjoyed himself every min ute of the time. For Sale Rubber tire buggy in first class con dition inquire of, FEANK BESTOR.
