Kellia led Willow Independents INDIANOLA, Neb., July 21. The Independent Hope Club No. 58, holds its meetings every two weeks. We are discussing the issues of the day Every meeting is adding numbers and interest. There is a county seat fight here now. A railroad town known a? McCook, wants the county seat, and is going through the usual routine to get it. The independents are taking advantage of tho fight, and are ham mmering the old mossbacks with goveremetit ownership of rail roads by saying that if the government owned the railroads it would not make any difference to it where tho county seat was. Neither place is gett'ng but little satisfaction out of this corner of the county, but we take especial pains to tell those that are for Indianola that have been vot ing for monopoly, that if we would vote against the railroad monopoly, they would go to the polls this fall, and vote for monopoly. When they strike one of us they soon find that we are not the man they are looking for and move cn. The dtmo-republicans are in favor of burying the bloody shirt until the c junty seat fight is over. Of course we have nothing of that kind t3 bury. If they would propose to bury the two old parties in November we would be urging them on our best. John Long. Notice.

Kerlin, Secretary. The Bine and th9 Gray. The following statement was handed to us by Mr. J. B. Romine, who re ceived it from the secretary of the Kansas state convention. It shows how deeply the independents of Kan sas have buried the bloody shirt: In the State Kansas People's Party convention held June 15, 1892, a one armed Norlhern soldier stood up and placed in nomination W. A. Harris, an offioer of Beauregard's staff, for congress man at large. Dozens of old soldiers made speeches seconding it when an old gray haired soldier of 76 grabbed a Hag apd movcg that every eld soldier in. the convention that wanted to sec ond it should stand up and 274 old spjcliers, the majority of ithe delegates of 'the convention, stood up and sec onded U with wild huzzas. He was nominated by acclamation and will go to congress elected by 20,000 majority.' M. mm Steel Harvesters and Mowers. When D. M. Osborne built tho first all steel Harvester and Binder in 1885 it marked a new departure that left all our competitors far in tho rear. They have all complimented us by imitation. . The New Osborne placed upon tho market this year is rilso a long stride In advance that places us at tho head and proclaims us the leaders in all that per tains to cutting and binding grain. THE NEW OSBORNE IS THE Lightest Strongest and Simplest Machine Made. WHY? BECAUSE its frame is all made of angle steelnd put togothcr with stoel bolts. No round or square iron pipe about it. BECAUSE it has the steepest deck, thus insuring a quick delivery to the packers, and avoiding all trouble from packing and choking. - BECAUSE it has tho widest drive wheel, being over 10 inches on the face thus avoiding all danger of sliding in dry or sinking ia wet weather. ' BE JAUSE you don't have to elovate the grain so high. BECAUSE all its parts are steel and malleable iron, thus insuring foar times the strength at half tho weight of cast iron. BECAUSE its chain drive, front cui and straight pitman apply thsir pawar direct. No lost motion BECAUSE, it i3 the easiest adjusted, easiest handled, and best built machine on earth. Don't bay a machine until you have seen the New Ojbarne Two horses can handle it. Its use on a farm i3 proof of an intelligent farmer 'ss' WSJ Osborne N?4.
