quiring if the Vanderbilt lines would

ftuSerers without charge. He said,
"We hope to be able to forward 60 car
loads from this state." While this
scheme was on foot the Governor and
the Mayor of our capitol city were
foreed to call a meeting to consider the
starving suffering poor of Lincoln, and
Omaha laborer's families were in equal
or greater distress. We simply want
to call attention to our industrial com

FRE2 CODTAQS TO BE THE ISSUE.
In spite of all efforts of tha politi
citns ot tbe country, tbe free coinage of
silver, and not free trade b to be the
issue of the next campaign. Tilii is
natural and Inevitable. Money strin
gency, low prices, prostrate muiness and
consequent business failures, are wring
ing home the money question to every
man and every household in the land
The demand for financial reform Is be
coming universal, and the first step in
financial reform is the restoration cf
silver to its ancient aud honored place
in onr monied system A free coinage
bill can be paused; and it public senti
ment could make itself fwlt it ia possi

The Eya and Ear
Are two most delicate and complicat
ed org-AHS; wilhulil l lie eye we cuuid
not guide our footsteps nor observe
the beauies of nature; without the ear
we could not hear tho voices rr our
friends nor enjoy tho sweet sounds of
music. No one is so helpless as the
blind and more deserving of pity than
the dt af. These two senses, being so
valuable should be guarped as we guard
our life. Many persons lose sight or
hearing by neglect, which timely aid
m'ght prevent. Among the specialists
who treat these organs none have been
more successful than Dr. Denn's whose
otlico is over the First National Bank In
Lincoln. Mr. C. M. Marshall who has
been in the employ of the big furniture
dealers, Gruetter & Co. was deaf in one
ear from which whs a constant offensive
