(Great Seal, i Geo. W. Marsh. Secretary of State. There will be a convention of electors of the third supervisor district held at the Throckmorton school house, in Clay towhship, on Aug. 29th. at 2 p. m , to nominate a supervisor for said district, T. C. Chamberlain, Thomas Burton, John Mathewson, Committee, Now, that all parties in Sherman county have made their nomina tions, forked political lightning may be expected to strike in all direc tions. Talking to an old-line democrat, the other day, he said, “I wras born a democrat, have always voted that ticket, and am still a democrat, but am not the of Wall street-Rill-Parker kind, and am heartily sick of fusion as w’ell, so I am going to vote this fall for Roosevelt and Unole Joe, and for Uncle Joe especially because he settles every cast* that comes be fore him out of court, if possible, and that’s my kind of a county at torney.” That’s pretty good rea soning from a taxpayer’s standpoint, ain’t it. Every voter who believes in the honesty and righntness of Theodore Rooseyelt’s position in regard to the evils which menace this country, such as Wall street domination, the trusts, the meat combine, railroad mergers, etc., should vote for Re publican legislators and congress, men to strengthen the Roosevelt arm. It is no question of doubt that Roosevelt must owe his election almost wholly to the common peo ple, whose candidate he is, nor any greater doubt that the almost com bined corporate power of'the trusts, combines and great Wall street in terests will try to encompass his de feat. \ oter, party or no party, wheifi will you stand?

A bad shooting affair occurred in Bristol township, this county, Mon day of this week, just across the river from Rockville. The circum stances are about as fol low’s, as near as we can ascertain. While Lisle Holmes, son of Geo. Holmes, a respected citizen of that township, together with two companions, Frank Meyer, of the same townhip, and Harry Jungle of Buffalo coun ty, were passing the farm of Frank Cook, another highly respected citi zen of Bristol township, they left their threshing rig and wrent into the Cook orchard to help themselves to apples. Just what occurreed at this time conflicting stories are told, but the facts admitted are that Mrs. Cook fired two loads of shot at them, each one of the boys receiving a portion of the contents, Holmes and Meyer being only slightly injured, while Jungle was seriously wound ed, the extent of his injuries yet to be ascertained. Mr. and Mrs. Cook and Mr. Holmes, father of the boy, were iu Loup City, Tuesday, in con sultation w’ith County Attorney Pedler and legal counsel, resulting in a mutual agreement, as we under stand, to await the result of the Jungle boy’s injuries, before action, if any, may be brought, and letting Jungle, he being the most injuied, bring that suit. Mrs. Cook was here ready to give herself up, but insists she only shot to scare the boys, and did so because of con stant aggravation from unwelcome visitations to their orchard. Mr. Holmes feels keenly the trouble and is not inclined to let the matter rest. It is a very unfortunate affair, and as all concerned are neighbors and are most respected citizens of their sec tion of the country, wre trust they may amicably settle this matter out of court and save the taxpayers of the county and themselves the great expense of such a proceeding and the consequent ill-feelings en gendered which time cannot heal. If you vote the Republican ticket etiaight this fall you can make no mistake for Rooseveltism is the watchword. Burlington Excursion Rates World’s Fair stopovers at St. Louis on through tickets.
