Beginning at Leshara at 10 o'clock, he spoke In Yutan at noon, at Ithaca at 2 o'clock; Weston, 3; Colon. 4:30, arriving at Cedar BluHs in time for an evening meeting. He was everywhere enthusiastically re ceived. The opera house at Cedar muffs was filled and his remarks long ago, its colonial possessions are twenty times as large as the mother country. Its geographical position and that of its colonies hi Eastern South Africa and Portuguese New Guinea are admirable for maritime trade. With the spread of education (but one out of five of its five million people being able to read and write) it may in time recover some of the DEMOCRATIC TICKET. Gilbert M. Hitchcock.

It Is not a hafe place in which to confine pris oners, and several are now confined in the Douglas county Jail -:o:- Vote for democratic candidates for the legislature, If you want to see county option defeated :o: D.

They make no distinction, while the re publican candidates say their aim is to get the better element of the voters. What do the common voters think of such a declaration? 1 Closing Out Sale!

ROSENCRMiS & SON KX-COXVICT I'OLITICAL BOSS. The Lincoln correspondent for the Word-Herald says: "The republican press of this state is evidently intent on making an ex-convict the politi cal dictator of Nebraska," said Hor ace F. Blshqp today. Mr. Bishop is chairman of the Lancaster county democratic committee. "A few years ago Bartley thought silence was the bent policy, believing that the memory of the hard times would soften the jury towards him. Now, he has practically served notice that anyone who ever had any dealings with hlra, either before he was state treasurer or while he was state treasurer, must, it they have political ambitions, "see" him or else be traduced by his tools. "If republicans and democrats do not strike back at this man, who sits In Denver a blackmailing king, and at the politicians who are now trying to use him for their own ends, and at the tools that are willing to do Bartley's bidding, they have allowed this man to grasp a hold on Nebras ka that will not cease until he dies. "I cannot believe that the repub licans of this state are willing to act as a collection agency for Joe Bart ley. One does not need to owe Bartley money to be at his mercy If Nebraskans are gulled by this move; It Is only nocesnary that they shall have had some dealings with him. no matter how Innocently, that they be made targets for his highwayman messages. "Mr. Hitchcock's refutation was complete and satisfactory to me. I believe democrats will generally un derstand this move, now that Mr. Hitchcock is in the clear. They found Potatoes, Potatoes: H. M.
