What the trouble was could not be ascertained. The news came as a surprise to the many friends he had made here A dozen or more of our people are taking the trip to Denver this week, on account of the exceedingly low rates j given by the Union Pacific. We failed [ to g*»t the names of those who are going, but as they are led by Col.

E Conference, of which the editor’s old 103t brother is secretary. What makes i the minutes of special value to us Is the | fact that the said brother is also an old printer and editor, as well as preacher and the minutes are the work of his editing,typesetting and press work and done in a firstelass printatorial manner.

Dated this 24th day of October, 1904. Gko. H. Gibson, County Clerk. Last pub. Nov. 17th. A Caf*d From Mr. Smelser. To the Voters of Sherman County: Greeting: As I have been asked by a considerable number of voters over the county my position on the good roads question, I wish to state to the voters and taxpayers of Sherman coun ty that I am and always have been strongly in favor of an optional town ship road or bridge levy for township routs and bridges, so each townshipcan raise its own road taxes and not inter fere with neighboring townships. And 1 further promise the voters of Sherman county that I will do all in my power, if elected, to get such a law passed, or any other goxi road measures sustable suitable to my constituents. Respect fully yours to command. II. Smklseu. Schaupp Siding. This is tine weather for corn picersk John Johnson marketed a few loads of hogs last week.

The principal event of the week was the box social at the court house The program was good and the music excel lent. The proceeds amounted to 820.55. We met a prominent democrat who lives near Loup City, the other day, who acknowledged Roosevelt was the best man named for presi dent, should be elected, but said he shouldn't vote for president this fall for any one. lie couldn’t go a populist and wouldn’t vote for Par ker, who he claimed was a Wall street, trust tool, and while Teddy was with the people as against tfie money, trust and corporate greed he had said he would never vote for a goldbug, hence could not vote for Roosevelt. Is the gentleman doing himself justice? Is he not allowing a prejudice to warp his better judg ment? II is refraining to vote is virtually a half vote for the great money power and trust tool he con demns, and registers a virtual half vote against Roosevelt, whose ad ministration he commends. Sup pose there were enough men doing as he proposes to assure the election of Parker, when by registering their votes for Roosevelt they could de feat Parkerism? It is no excuse for not voting to say Roosevelt will win. They will of necessity be in part responsible, whether they vote or not. Why not cast your ballot as you desire the result to be. Vote for Roosevelt. ■■rggepiv*-^ m VOTE FOR | ! ROOSEVELT J By Voting the Straight j Republican Ticket, J Fusionists Increased State Debt Official Reports Quoted “-State Books the Best Evidence. During the fusion administration the j state debt was increased. They made j no concealment of that fact at the j time. They put it in their official re- ! ports, and said that a new revenue law was necessary to stop the deficit and provide for the gradual payment of the state debt. The official statement of Auditor Cornell is the best evidence. It is on page 7 of his last published annual re port, just before he went out of office. IIo said: “At tho close of the biennium, ending Nov^mLer 30. 1898. the liabilities of the state were $1,729,613.47; at the close of business November 30, 1900. the liabili ties were $1,782,485.11. To this should be added tho deflcencies created during the biennium and not yet provided for by appropriation, estimated at about $125. 0C9, making a total of $1,907,485.11. Not withstanding the fact that state funding bonds amounting to $152,267.35 have been paid off, tho indebtedness cf the state shows an increase of $178,370.71.” That is what the auditor said when the fusion administration was about to close. John M. Gilchrist was his chief bookkeeper. The figures were correct except the estimate of deficiencies, which turned out to be $182,735.97, making the total increase in the state i debt in the last two years of fusion administration $235,607.61. These are the figures from the state records as made by the fusion state officials. Now they have been wilfully mis stating the facts during this campaign £n an effort to show that the fusionists were reducing instead of increasing the state debt. If a candidate will falsify the record* in order to get into office, what will he .. ... ««-V ■ —. I Professional Cards j R. J.

It speaks to me of people whom I am glad to call friends and reminds of the most pleasant year in my life I shall never forget my last night there at the hotel and the many testimonials that were uttered at the i-ost of my speech. Statements made at such times are usually overdrawn. I believe this one was not an exception. But I do believe it brings inspiration to jne who may be working (or trying to work) upward.

California's attractions are mostly of its own kind, peculiar to the state, and of none is this so emphatically true as that unique product the Big Trees. The age of these colossi is from 1500 to 2000 year-1. The Mari posa Gr«ve, which can be visited while en route to the Yosemite, con tains some of the largest. In the Calaveras Grove are from ninety to one hundred of huge sine. Near Santa Crujs is a beautiful grove of redwood Big Trees which will well employ a day’s visit. These can be best reached bv the Union Pacific whose fast trains from Missouri river, reaching California 1G hours ahead of all competitors. Pamphlets and maps describing the wonders of California, and full information about the most comfort able and direct route to the Paciti j Coast, can be obtained of F. H. Hi ser, Loup City, Nebr.
