This latter law has worked so well that a desirable Dem ocratic candidate was formally chos en by a Republican legislature-over a Republican candidate whom the people had repudiated at the polls.

To such a one, LU1II F.R'S FARM SPECIAL will strongly appeal. Up to the time we put out this great labor saving tool he had to be content with the old, slow-cutting grindstone or unsatisfactory emerv grinder, but now he can have the service of the most perfect farm tool sharpening device ever invented. There is not a tool used about the farm that is superior to our FARM SPECIAL GRINDER as a labor saver. It sharpens everything in one-twentieth the time it would take on the grindstone. The grind stone cuts so slow that you would prefer to work with a dull tool rather than endure the backache and HARD WORK of keeping tools sharp on it. IT IS EASY to sharpen tool on the Farm Special. Your ten-year-old boy will tell you it is fun to sharpen everything on this FARM SPECIAL GRINDER. JO-VN BAUER 8 HARDWARE! HEATING!

These dates tome on a Fri day and Saturday and there should be monster crowds present on both days. This Is the twenty-second an nual gatnering of the old settlers' and the excellent people of Union will spare no pains to make it the biggest and best gathering of the kind ever held. As Is usual at this gather ing there will be plenty of oratory and noted speakers representing all shades of political belief and with all kinds of views on different sub jects will be heard and if you have an opinion you can visit this gather ing and fortify It from your side or have it shaken from stem to gudgeon by the opposition. There will also be a program of sport3 worth taking In including pome good base ball games and races of various kinds are advertised. The Union band will play at intervals and furnish a treat for music lovers. The gathering will be held as usual In the fine grove west of the town and on the banks of the Weeping Water, Insuring a cool, shady retreat. The program has not yet been completed but it likely will be before a great while when a more definite announcement can be made as to its makeup. However, that shouldn't deter you from putting down this date and visiting Union. The offlVers of the association giv ing the reunion are W. R. Cross, president; John B. Roddy, 1st vice president; Alva Stltes, 2nd vice presi dent; L. R. Upton, treasurer; and Charles L. Graves, secretary; all prominent business men of Union and live wires. Returns From Detroit. Dr. Frank L. Cummins who was the delegate from Plattsmouth Lodge No. 739, B. P. O. E., to the grand lodge at Detroit, Mich., returned this morning. He had a royal time and found the city of Detroit to have tak en the greatest steps to greet the guests. The grand lodge was the largest ever assembled in the history of the order and the session was one of the most Important. There were a number of Important matters taken up by the lodge and disposed of and the sessions on the whole were most Interesting. The excitement attend ant upon the election of officers for the organization was not much this year as there were no contests of moment. August (Garry) Hermann of Cincinnati, Ohio, was unanimously elected grand exalted ruler, he hav ing been defeated one year ago at Los Anegeles, Cal., by J. U. Sammls of LeMars, la., for that honor after one of the hardest and most bitter struggles in the history of the order. Harmony, however, prevailed at the Detroit session. The program of en tertainment prepared by the citizens of Detroit was a very elaborate one and thousands of dollars were spent In an effort to send the guests away satisfied and delighted. The annual parade of the Elks was a magnificent turnout and had many thousands of marchers In line. In addition a grand exhibition drill was given by some of the crack teams of the coun try. An aviation meet had been ar ranged for the last day of the gath ering and It was one of the main at tractions of the entire week. Dr. Cummins returned one of the best pleased delegates ever sent from this city and a better Elk than ever be fore. youl exactly. :o:- :o:- In an address at Mansfield, Wash., ty State University Regent Rogers he stated that tho state had already been robbed of $11,000,000 in fraud ulent sales of school lands. That Is Kolng some for a new state with such a large Republican majority. :o: OKI friends of W. , J. Uryan are wondering why that gentleman did not conic out for county option two years ago. Was It because he was then a candidate himself? Don't it look that way, aud that he Is going Lack on some of tho very friends who stood by him In all his cum jialgns? Hut they part now. CITIZKXS AUK STUDY IN (I. I Napoleon's Grit was of the unconquerable, never say die kind, the kind that you need most when you have a bad cold, lung Condition of Mrs. Monroe. The condition of Mrs. O. P. Monroe who was injured several days since is reported as being slightly better, although she Is still In a serious state. She is unable to retain much nourish ment and suffers very considerably from pains In the back of her head and along her spine. It is believed that she will eventually recover but the convalescence will be slow. In a signed statement to the public O. P Monroe announces that he will be compelled to close his store for a portion of several days to come and Invites all having business with him Itui'lington Constructions. Within a year it is expected that connections will have been made by the Burlington between its Guernsey and Cheyenne lines and the central Wyoming lines now under construc tion. When that much is finished, and probably before that time, work will be started on the line up the Platte valley, from Newark, near Kearney. This plan has never been abandoned. The company Is now building south from Thermopolis to a connection with the Northwestern's Lander line. The company has made track ar rangements with the Northwestern so that trains can, be run between the connecting point south of Thermop olis to Orln Junction, where the Bur lington's Colorado & Sotuhern line ends. This point reached, connections over the C. & S. line can be secured with the Guernsey and Cheyenne lines of the Burlington. Some heavy construction Is yet to be finished in the canyon of the Big Horn river south of Thermopolis. Much of the dirt grading is well along toward completion, and It Is expected that considerable track may be laid this winter. The work would have been farther along If It had not been for scarcity of laborers In that region. The work on the line up the Platte valley has been delayed because that offers few engineering difficulties, U In a region where labor can be se cured, and where much work can be done in tne winter time. It Is1 said that if early completion of this line were desired it could be built from x Newark to Bridgeport In a year. It would not surprise many railroad men who are conversant with the sit uation if work along the Platte valley were to be started within twelve months. State Journal. disease or cough.

Monroe takes excep tion to that part which refers to the note which Stull claims to have been surety upon for him. Mr. Monroe calls attention to the fact that he paid the note spoken of and also wants to state that the note in ques tion was not given at the time he went Into the second hand business here as might be supposed by read ing the statement. The last time Mr. Stull was ever on his note was some Poor Game. The base ball game last Sunday between the Columblas of Omaha and the Plattsmouth team, was a very poorly played and uninteresting con test. The Columbia team was far outclassed and the locals never had to exert themselves to win. In fact, they mixed themselves all up and played about any old place on the diamond. McCauley started the game by pitching for Plattsmouth but he never had to lengthen himself out to win and In the sixth Fitzgerald took his place and tossed them over, although he makes no pretensions to being a pitcher. Even at that he was too many for the visitors and they could do little with him. The field ing support of the locals was also listless and dispirited as there was nothing to play against. The final score was Plattsmouth 9, Columblas 7. men of the Burlington shops ,1s per- . . , ,, A. paia anu cieaieu up inai ami an inn er Indebtedness of the kind. haps the produest man in the city at the present wilting and he has Just cause.
