The Kepubllcan Aspirant for Congress Starts the Campaign Ball In This City Monday Nleht His Ef fort Was Very Weak. Opening Of the Campaign. Judge Strode opened his campaign for congress in this city Monday night. All the accessaries of a well-advertised business "opening" were visible in cluding a band of music, and even the band-organ man was about adding the sweet, dulcet strains of his organ to the band music. As a result the Waterman was filled to the doors with a music-loving assembly of men, boys and ladies. When the meeting was called to order Messrs. Chapman, Telft, Newell, Eikenbary. Itichey and Root occupied seats on the stand. After calling the meeting to order, some one who seems to be known as "Prof. Howard" of Lincoln came forward and sane "Marching Through Georgia," asking the audience to join in the chorus, "a little louder." Several other selections were then rendered. After that Judge Chapman made a speech of some length, in which he discounted the pups as a calamity howler, bemoaning the change from Harrison to Cleveland and attributed all the hard times to democratic rule. His appeal to work- ingmen to compare the difference be tween republican and democratic times would have been pathetic if it had not been overdrawn. The share of the crop failure in making up the bard times was not made a part of Judge Chapman's plea. Everything was charged up to the democracy. He said the Wilson bill was not good enough for Cleveland to sign, but it was good enough for the people. That was the best bit he made. lie then introduced Mr. Tefft, who talked a few moments, and at 9:50 o'clock Mr. Strode came forward and began his long-expected effort. He began with a history of himself, saying that the chief reason for his being a republican was that bis father was be fore him. The people of Cass county, whom he had known for fifteen years, had a warm place in his heart, and there were tears in his voice as he said it. The Judge then launched out in a talk on the tariff, which be character ized as the chief issue of the campaign. He did no pursue the usual method of discussion, by appealing to the reason or judgment of men as to the princi ples of government involved in a tariff for revenue or one for protection, but contented himself seeking to prove by what he termed was "history" that "low" tariffs had always been disas trous whenever tried, and that "high" tariffs had invariably promoted pros perity. To accomplish this feat in or atorical legerdemain be proceeded to quote extracts from the speeches of various advocates of high protection, including Clay, Webster, Carey, Tom Reed and even from bounding Joe Cannon, as well as from Gallinger and from the New York Tribune in 1856, as to the effect of the low tariff of 1846; bat he was precious careful not to give the language of the great apostle of reciprocity, Mr. Blaine, in his history of those times, or what be says of the effect on the parties of the Walker tar iff of '46. His "history" was of a very questionable character. Mr. Strode alluded to the present de pression as due to the tariff reductions of the Wilson bill, and said the way to prevent the democratic threat of tur ther reductions was to elect republi cans like him to congress. He never once alluded to the silver question and the only allusion to the populists was a comparison between the states of Colorado, South Carolina, Kansas and Nebraska. The speech is generally regarded as a weak effort, and repub licans apologize for their candidate by saying he was not well. Farm for Sale.

The syllabus in the well-known Fil bert habeas corpus case, decided on Tuesday in the supreme court in favor of the Schroeder's, is as follows: "Schroeder et al. vs. State ex rel. Filbert. Error from Cass county. Re versed and dismissed. Opinion by Commissioner Ragan. "In a controversy for the custody of an infant of tender years the court will consider the best interests of the child and will make such order for its custody as will be for its welfare, with out reference to the wishes of the par ties. Sturtevant et al. vs. State, etc., 15 Neb., 459; Giles vs. Giles, 30 Neb., 654; . State ex rel. vs. Schroeder, 57 Northwestern Reporter, 807, approved and followed. 2. "The right to the custody of an in fant child which the law confers upon its father is not for the benefit of the father, but for the benefit of the child; and this right of custody is conferred on the father,because the law presumes that he will avail himself of thechild's custody for its benefit; but he may for feit his right to the custody of the child by abandonment." Foil Salb A. full-blooded Short horn yearling bull. F. McCoukt, 83 if South Sixth Street. There was a freight wieck on the Missouri Pacific Tuesday afternoon near Sedalia, Kan., four freight cars leaving the track. This wreck delayed the north-bound express so that it did not leave Kansas City until 3:30 in the afternoon. It arrived at Omaha at 9:45 at night, being held on the side track at Twenty-fourth street fifteen minutes to allow the south-bound ex press to pass. The real time between Kansas Citv and Omaha was six hours, or three hours shorter than the schedule time. The regular stops were made. This breaks the record of time of a regular local train between the two cities. Omaha World-Herald. Deafness Cannot !e Cured By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by .constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the eustachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma tion can be taken nut and this tube restored to its normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh. which is nothing but an inflamed con dition of the raucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for anv case of deafness icausen Dy catarrh)thatcannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, tree. F. J.

The Bee statement regarding the relative advantage of the Union Pa cific and the Burlington via its new Billings line for northwest points is misleading. The Union Pacific is the shortest line between Omaha, Kansas City and Chicago for Portland, but beyond this the Burlington leads. The distance from Chicago to Helena via the Burlington is 1,619 miles; via the Union Pacific, 1,913 miles; Chicago to Tacoma, Burlington, 2,400; Union Pacific, 2,460; Chicago to Seattle, Bur lington, 2,420; Union Pacific, 2,480; Chicago to Spokane, Burlington, 2,000; Union Pacific, 2,400. The Burlington from Kansas City to Helena is 400 miles shorter; to Spokane 470 miles shorter, and to Tacoma and Seattle 150 miles shorter. World-Herald.
