There is a marked improvement in
business all over tbe United States.
The dates fixed for tbe Nebraska
state fuir are September 1h to 24.
1h97. The fair will be held at
Omaha and great preparations are
being made to surpass all former
efforts.
The Nebraska State Fair liulliten
is again to the front and will be iss
ued monthly. It is filled with State
fair literature, Agricultural and Hor
ticultural and live stock information.
There w ill be AO,000 thousand copies
of this publication issu'd monthly.
Judge Fost is a prominent candi
date for the nomination of Supreme
Judge on the republican ticket.
The Judge is much stronger now
tliun lie was when nominated in 1801.
The mention of his name means bis
nomination ami bis nomination
means bis election.
Tbe populist organs tell you that

silver and yet under the present re
publican administration there has
been coined 1,475,101 silver dollars
|P and each are worth exactly as much
as a gold dollar. This fact how
ever will not be noted in a populist
sheet.
■B«j _
We learn that here is uo less than
seven candidates for the nomination
of county Superintendent on the
populist ticket and that material for
M the other county ollleers are looming
up in like proportion. This is very
unlike the doctoriue preached by
many of those self same populists
a few years ago who used to declare
“that the otlice should hunt the man.
, ■ __
How do the repuL'licans feel now
who started off on the populist craze.
The democratic element of that or
ganizations are still clinging to de
mocracy by encourging democrats
to keep up tueir organization and
promising them fusion while the
heretofore republican element has
became so thoroughly disgusted
that they have gone otf on the so
cialist move aud are trying to unite
tiie forces in that direction. The
good hook says “that a divided
bouse must fall." and if this is any
criteria!) the pop party is fast be
coming a thing of the past.
The Times Independent says “we
are right in aayiug that the populist
judges on the benches are making
more orders for sheriffs sale thuu
any republican judge we ever hud.'
Further down in its comment with
reference to the remark made by us
last week, that these same fellows
•luu.pped the district auil plodg ed
tlieui*eiv«a to stand by the people
iu Ibis matter of protecting their
11out*a, ll says "We »av there isnnt

buu such a promise. Now the (ruth

wail of ihe "deplorable condition of

H^BI,
We were asked Tuesday If the Mc
K inley club of Sherman county had Iieen
wiped bodily off the lace of the earth
ami not one member left to care for the
signs on their club room building?
The sign “An honest, dollar, and a
chance to earn it," posted on the Massa
soil house Is becoming an eyesore and
eonvays the Idea to strangers that Loop
</'ity has been sleeping since November
last.—Tint es-Independcnt.
Poor Edward, that sign has been
an eyesore to him und his popocratio
brothers ever since election. The
above paragraphs remind us of the
remark made by hi in just after the
defeat of Bryan. It happened that
during the outnpuign we put a pict
ure of McKinley in the west window
lit our residence whereupon Edward
immediately followed suit and put
up a picture of Bryan in the east
w indow of his residence just across
the street, lu this instance McKin
ley was looking at Bryan and Bryan
had his optics on McKinley. After
election Edward said: “The most I
hate about this thing is that I will
have to take Bryan’s picture out of
my window,” This remark wus made
directly to us and was accompanied
with a heavy sigh. W c took the
hint and out of pure sympathy for
Edward removed McKinley’s
picture also. Now we suggest that
the club have a meeting and pass
the following resolution:
Wiikkkas: Editor llrown of the
Tlmes-lndependent has became so un
easy and agitated because the McKin
ley club has seen lit to leave their mot
toes stand for pubic observance that he
cannot longer Indore it. and
Wiikkkas: It Is liable to work an injury
to his mental faculties if not to the
tvuuic i au'. jmi . me c/iv
Kesoi.vku : That we the members of the
McKinley club, of the vlctorlus cam
paign of 18‘Jti, do, out of puie sympathy
for the Times manager and his poor de
luded brethren, remove the mottoes
from'the MeKialey club rooms until
such time as they may recover from
tbeir calamities and demented condi
tion. and further be it
Resolveu: that In so doing we tender
our heart felt sympathies to them in
tbeir hour of humiliation and state of
perplexity

Id the Hawk-Eye of the 11 inst.
a card was published from Mr, II.
H. Davis, editor of the Pulaski In
dependent, inquiring the foundation
for the reported death ot Mr. Rob
ert J. Burdette. As the Ilawk Eye
bad received a similar inquiry from
elsewhere, it published its own denial
of the story, and forwarded a copy
of the article with a letter to Mr.
Burdette. The following reply in
Mr. Burdette’s own happy vein, “Ex
plains all,” and is ample refutantion
of the rumor that he had sullied off
his mortal coil. His auswer reminds
us of the rcceut reply made by Mark
Twain to a similar inquiry concern
ing himself; he said: ‘My reported
death has been greatly exaggerated!”
Bryn Mawr, Pa., June 14, 1897,
— My Dear Waite: Like the true
fricud and loyal comrade you ever
were, you do right to protest against
tuy burial prior to the authpsy,
I mu indeed very much alive.
Not only so, I haven’t been dead
even a little bit. Not once Could
have been, had I wanted to bo.
Could be yet. But 1 don’t want.

I held him by the wtthera tight
li the middle <d the mad and mount
ed without assistance. I dismount
ed in the same independent manner.
(Jot on again and proceeded to
break him to the saddle.
Did l ride the first time?
Well say!
People had tolci me—liars of all
ages and both sexes that I could nt
fall if, when 1 felt that 1 was falling,
I would stick out my foot,
I stuck out both hands and both
feet, and fell on my head.
1 fell oil one side of that diabol
ical wheel and then on the other; 1
fell on both sides at once; I fell on
top of it and underneath it, and I
made “dogfalla" with it. 1 fell be
tween the wheels. I fell behind the
hind wheel and before the front one
at the same time, and don'tyetknow
how I did it. I fell and thrust both
legs through the spokes of one wheel.
I met a terrified man in a buggy and
dravc him (dear off the pike through
Wheeler's hedge, and I don’t thluk
he has come hack jet. Every time
I fell I slapped the palms of my
row, swollen bands, throbbing bands
on the hard “inelastic’’ pike, except
the time I fell on mv head. I fell
harder and with greater variety of
landing than any inun could fall un
less he dropped out of a balloon and
lit on a load of furniture. I lost
my confidence, my patience, my tem
per, my clamps, lamp, bell and re
putut on. I broke one pedal, the
saddle, and the ordinance against
loud, boisterous and abusive langu
age at night. 1 ran into everything
except the middle of the road. 1
sat flown OU everything in the town
ship except the saddle. I scorched
in a circuit not fifteen feet in cir
cumference until you could smell
brimstone. 1 made more revolutions
than a South American republic,
and did’nt get ten feel away from
where 1 started. I hav’nt been so
much mauled and abraded, so
thumped and beaten, so trampled
upon and pounded, so bruised and
scratched, since I left the army.
But I can ride.
1 don't say that l “do.” But 1
“cau."
Do I consider “biking” good for
the health?
For the health of some people 1
do. I don’t see bow a physician can
briDg up bis family unless his child
ren have something to eat.
But in my own caso. I reserve tny
decision. I will wait until 1 know
wheatlier L am going to die or get
well. And do you tell Brother
Davis to keep his obitnary on the
standing galley until he hears from
“Slug Nine?” I don't believe I’ve
got “30’’ yet, although friends who
called to see me break down when
ihev say “good-by” and walk out of
the room on tip-toe. But 1 would ni
mind that if 1 kuew what became of
my sliolder blades the time 1 ran un
der the bay wagon. Obeerfuly
