The new revenue bill lias been oc cupying the attention of the bouse this week and will probably come to the senate for further consideration soon. Some of the objections urged against the new hill at the start-off were that it would increase the taxes of farmers by taking the valuation in the winter when they had a large amount of stock or grain on baud. This was changed by the house, ami the date of assessment will be the same as under the old law. Stock UDder six months of age is expressly exempted from assessment, The proposition to make (axes a first lien on personal property from and alter the first of April was changed, so that the date is now ibe first of October. The village election will come < ll llie first Tuesday after the first Mon day in April or on April 7. The law requires the election notices to he posted from 20 to 1J days before election, which means that, about now is the right lime to stick them up to the public giize. It is to be hoped this year thut the board will have some election notices printed in the usual form and posted up in places where all can see them. These notices can be printed in at tractive form for $1.50 and will be much more satisfactory to the peo ple. For several years past the notices, if posted at all, were written on a slip of paper and tacked up in a few places. The form of the not ices were not such us to attract the attention of anyone, aud many were asking when the village election W3S to come off, etc. We like the econ omical way iu which the present board is conducting the municipal affairs of the lowu, that is, iu many respects, but to shave so closely us to not give proper notice of so im portant a matter as the notice of election, and all to save the mere pittance of $1.50 is something to be criticised. It does not matter wheth er the notice is printed at this offlet or at some other place, only give good and sufficient notice as the law requires. The levie which is made for village purposes are high and the amount of money received for village purposes are something baudsome and the people should enjoy at least a few statitory privileges. President Roosevelt is soon to vis it Nebraska. Monday's dailies give out the following annoneement; The president and party will visit Lincoln April 27, about 2 o’clock in the afternoon, arriving via the Bui lington from Hastings and departing via the Klahora in time to reach Fremont the same afternoon. Con gressman Burkett will be requesed to take charge of the local program at Lincoln. The president’s Neb raska itinerary is almost identical with that which was arranged for his proposed visit last year, which had to be abandoned on account of the Presidents injured limb. The first stop will he at Grand Island, where the party will spend the entire day, Sunday, April 20, leaving for Hast ings Monday morning ut y,30. The mayor of Grand Island has been re quested to revive his reception com mittee and arrange a program upon lines laid down last year. Senator Deitricb is requested to take charge of arrangments for his home town aud will confer with local leaders as he did last year, asking them to ar raogedetails. The precedential party will go thence to Lincoln and from tiiere to Fremont where a stop of thirty mmntes will be made. The partv will then proceed via the Un ion Pacific to Omaha, arriving there at 0 p. m., and remaining all night, departing for the south via the Wa bash road early iu the morning of April 28, the objective point be ing St. Louis. Senator Millard is arranging for an elaborate reception to the party at Omaha.”’ A farmer l»\ the name of Elias of Buffalo count \ had a narrow e so apt1 from drowning in Wood river while ] attempting to cross when the water 1 was high. Tie had driven across the bridge safeh when he struck a raging torrent of water on the other side which carried the tom wagon and all quickly down stream ami lodged them in a wire fence. The team perished in the flood, and the I man dung to the wagon which was all under water. He was in this perilous condition from the shades of evening until 12 o'clock at night, expecting every moment to be cat rtcd farther down stream. In the I mean time odc who had discoverd tiim, but being powerless to render any assistance single handed, hast ened to town and employed the aid of a boat and a rescuing party. He was taken out just in lime to save his life, beiug wet to the t hin und all but frozen to death. The new department of the gov ernment to be known as the Depart ment of Commerce and Labor has beeu established 'lie president hav ing signed the bill creating it. Mr. Roosevelt his appointed Secretaij Cortelyou as the first Secretary < f the new department and ids nomina tion has been coutii tiled tty 'tie sen a'e. Thus a man who only a few years ago was only a stenographer tn government srnplcy has risen, solely by merit to the position of Cabinet otfi or. A belter selection could not have been made as Mr. Corielyou's familiarity with cabinet work eminently qualities him for the position. Mr. James K. Garfield, a sou of the late president h is been selected for the important position of Commissioner of Oorp rations to whom will be entrusted the admis tration of llie puliiictty contained in the Nelson amendment. It is said that tlie politicians aie out of hum >r because the president called the extra session of the senate \Veil) that h not surprising and it is not anything new. The politicians are in a habit of getting out of hum or when things don’t go ttieir way, but at some times the “plain people” •tre apt to be in u satisfied frame < 1 mind. Members of congress and of legislatures are expected to do cer | tain things, in short to do their duty. Where they fail, it is apt to be through the influence of the politi cians, and in that case it is a very good thing to have a president or a governor handy, as the case may be, to set mattes tight.—Kearney Hub. When the investing committee ex amined Edward Rosewater upon the •‘cigar box” mistery. it took a whole column to tell what be did’nt know about it. In fact he did’nt know anything about it, but thought lie kuew of two or three parties who might know of some one who had heard some one say something about it. The committee is now hunting that somebody, but we predict that they will have to employ plood hounds to be successful in the case. In the mean lime the tax payers will have to foot tlie bill.

My hus band insisted that I take Wine of Cardui for a week and sec what it would do for me. I did take the medicine and was very grateful to find my strength and health slowly returning, m two weeks I was out of bed and in a month I was able to Like up my usual duties. I am very enthusi astic in its praise." Wine of Cardui reinforces the organs of generation for the ordeal of preg nancy and childbirth. It prevents m is carriage. No woman who takes W ine of Cardui need fear the coming of her child. If Mrs. Unrath had taken Wine of Cardui before her baby came she would not have been weakened as she was. Iler rapid recovery should oommend this great remedy to every expectant mother. Wine of Cardui regulates tho menstrual ilow.
