renndv that condition, and not only
to give fifty per cent of the proceeds
of this carnival to create a fund for
that purpose, but to add to that fund
each vear. until it is of sufficient
amount that the interest derived
therefrom will be sufficient to take
the best of care cf every part of the
cemeteries.
The carnival will be conducted in
t!.' cl"b rooms cf the Elks lodge and

and also to a chance on each of the
prizes mentioned above, one of which
will be given each night of the xar
nival. These tickets are on sale at
most of the business houses of the
city, and by all members of the local
lodge.
The funds derived from this carni
val are to be devoted to a worthy
purpose and the affair is deserving
of the loyal support of the entire
community.
DAVIS OR DEADLOCK
The complacency of the republican
managers over the election prospects
has given place to evidence of con
sternation in the Hysterical cry of
the republican chairman that there
is "a conspiracy to prevent the peo
ple from electing a president at the
polls. This is supplemented by the
amusing warning of Coleman Du
Pont that the insurgents are trying
to deadlock the election. The whole
case of confidence is given away In
the bitter denunciation of La Follette
bv Mr. Hughes. It Is very evident
that the republicans realize the im
probability of the election of Mr.
Coolidge at the polls.
There is no occasion for hysteria
even in the event the election is
thrown into the house. It would not
be the first time it has happened and
the republic and our institutions and
cur constitution all survived the or-
Nor is there any "conspiracy to
throw the election into the house.
There is no conspiracy at all. There
is a determination on the part of mil
lions of Americans to prevent the
continuance in power of the party
that has shamed the nation with a
succession of disgraceful scandals of
which that party is not ashamed.
There is a plan to prevent the vin
dication of the party that boast of
a tariff act which legalizes the filch
ing of from four to five billions a
year from the pockets of the people
for the benefit of the privileged few
There is a disposition to rid the
country of the curse of government
al paralysis which is inevitable from
the divided councils of the party in
power.
But that is not a conspiracy. It
is open, above board, ana Is pro
claimed from a thousand stumps.
It it cannot be done at the polls
the fight will be continued in the
house. The decisive defeat of the
party of the Falls. Forbeses and
Daughertys at the polls is the price
that-must be paid for the prevention
of an election by ttie congress.
It is sheer impertinence to expect
to recoup the republican losses from
La Follette in the west from the
ranks, of democracy. The democrats
are fighting Coolidge and all his
tribe, and all his works, and all that
is hidden behind his silences. They
are fighting corruption and they
will not vindicate it by voting to re
tain the administration that has bred
it. Thev are fighting the most adora
inable of all tariff loots and they
are not going to vote to continue it.
They are fighting incompetency, and
govenmental paraljsis and they
will not give the victory to the party
that has been Incompetent and has
brought paralysia
They will vote for John W. Davis,
who personifies their principle and
foreshadows their policies, and they
are inviting all who look upon a
deadlooked election as a calamity to
join them in his election at the
polls. New York World.

TRIP TO SHENAN
DOAH SUNDAY
Cass Connty People Visit at C. H.
Rist Home Near Sidney and Also
At Shenandoah, Sunday
Yesterday several auto loada of
Cass county people Journeyed over
Into the southern portion cf our
neighboring state of Iowa to pay a
visit to the farm home of C. II. Hist
and family near Sidney, and take in
the many points o interest in that
locality.
In the party that made the trip
were Henry Horn and wife and
daughter, Miss Helen. Louis Titkot

Heil and wife of Omaha. V.'illiam
A. Heil and wife of near Mynard,
Guy Heil and wie of near Cedar
Creek, Otto and 'Miss Freda YVohl
farth and Miss Viola Keil.
The day was an Ideal one for
travel and the trip embracing 143
miles was enjoyed every moment by
the members of the party. The fine
farm of Mr. Rist, consisting of 320
acres of the fine land of Fremont
county, was the main point of the
visitors and here they were given the
most royal hospitality that is char
acteristic of this former Cass county
family. Not the least of the features
of the trip was the wonderful dinner
prepared and served by the Rist
family to their friends and which
embraced all that the most discrim
inating could demand in the gocd
things to eat.
The visitors found the farm ii:
fine shape and excellent crops for tho
past summer and the brightest pros
pects for the coming year and which
will give the owner of the farm a
good return for the years work. This
was most pleasing to the old friends
of Mr. Rist and family to know that
they had prospered so much in the
last year.
In the afternoon the party accom
panied by the Rist family drove to
Shenandoah. Iowa, where they visit
