NORRIS BROWN ALL RIGHT Disreputable Democratic Du plicity Disclosed. Apropos of the attack upon Norris Brown, our candidate for U. S. sena tor, which appeared in the Times-In dependent of last week, and which is but a rehash of something that has been successfully refuted since, we append the letter below from Chair man Rose of the Republican State Committee. We feel sure Bro. Brown was led into error in publishing same or he would not have given it space: To the Editor of the Northwestern: I ask space to give the facts con cerning the false roport that Norris Brown, republican candidate for Unit ed States Senator, was indebted to the insolvent Kearney National bank, at the time its affairs were settled, on notesdue for money deposited therein by former State Treasurer Bartley, and that the state lost its money through Brown's repudiation of his notes. Robert Payne of Nebraska City was receiver and settled the affaire of this bank. He is a lifelong demo crat. and his integrity is known throughout the state. To learn the exact truth 1 wrote him as follows: Lincoln. Neb., Oct. 17, 1906,—Dear Sir: It has been reported that Norris Brown had certain unpaid notes in your bands as receiver of the Kearney National Bank at the time of the bank's failure and your settlement of its affair: that he borrowed the money f>om state funds deposited by former State Treasurer Bartley: that the state deposit wa- -36.000, which tic state lost because Norris Brown did not pay liis notes, one amounting to $35 an i the other to $255. Will v.ni please give me the facts in regard to this matter? Very respectfully. L oill. • Dm. Kep. state < >-u. To t)ii' Mr. Payne replied: Nebraska City. N b. < vt. IT. !:• ;. Mr. VV. If. Rose. Clr: is i: :»n IP-, in -:i in State Central Committee. >. ,.r Sir. Among the assets f tlm Kenney > iona! Hank, plated in my hands" as re ceiver. were notes amounting to about *300. signed by Norris Brown. These notes had no connection whatever with tiie deposit of - '.Ooo by .. s-State Treasurer Hartley. As i recollect the facts, they are al<out as follows: Norris Brown owed the bank a-above stated. He claimed the bank owed him an ac count as attorney’s fees, and wished to offset his indebtedness to the bank by the bank's indebtedness to him. Equitably, it looked to me as though such a compromise would be just. These notes, with other assets of the bank, were duly advertised for sale in the Kearney Hub, and sold with other assets of the bank in March. 1898. 1 do not recollect who bought the notes or the amount paid for them. A commonsense interpretation of the transaction would be that Brown re ceived from the Kearney National Bank for services, as claimed by him. an amount equal to the difference between the face value of his notes and the amount paid for the notes at public auction. Yours very truly, Robert Payne. That Norris Brown did not owe the Kearney National Bank, nor the state of Nebraska, any sum whatever at the time the affairs of uhe bank were settled, was shown in a recently pub lished interview with N. P. McDonald, present connty attorney of Buffalo county, who was familiar with the facts. The truth was also published by Robert Payne, receiver, in an in terview given to the Nebraska City Daily Tribune, October 8, 1906. Without making inquiry of Mr. Payne to ascertain the facts, and dis regarding the truth which had been published; T. S. Allen, chairman of the democratic state central com mittee, lias been diligently publishing and circulating throughout the state anonymous handbills containing this false report. 1 appeal to every fair minded man, regardless of party affil iation. to resent the disreputable methods employed by the democratic state central committee in their ef forts ro defeat Norris Brown and pre vent regulation of freight rates by the election of a democratic legislature. W. B. Rose. Chm. Rep. State Cen. Coni. Lincoln. Neb.. Oct. 20. Tuesday afternoon of t his week oc curred the much advertised but very slimly attended fusion rally at the opera house, in which W. H, Thomp son. “Little Giant," the fusion candi date for U. S. senator, was to lie the principal attraction, with Frank Bea man of Kearney, former republican, and J. E. Johnson, fusion nominee for state senator to lend dignity!?) to the occasion. At about an hour past the designated time fort lie grand en tree, and with 23 persons, all told, in cluding the speakers, present, the meeting was called to order bv John Minshull who introduced F. E. Beaman as the first speaker. Frank began bv saying he felt a little out of place in such company and then launched out in a tirade of abuse and vilification of the republican candidate for state senator and of oth -r Buffalo countv republicans that wasa’umt as refresh ing to his intelligent hearers as are the-breezes from the South Omaha stockyards to the olfactory senses of i passenger-- on through t rain-. Frank I _A>ok occasion of the aiisence of ladies | in the audience to season hi .remarks | with some smut, and tinallv. after displaying his political - > lavishly to unsympathetic- uudien • sat*1 own amid a stillness, so dense you could almost cut it with a knife! Frank's last sore is his defeat for the republi can nomination for state senator from Sherman and Buffalo counties, but having been a standing and unsuc cessful candidate for some office for years he is so covered with old political sores he has He wn to Dame Democracy in hopes of some healing or at least soothing lotion. He was followed by Mr. Thompson in a digni fied, scholarly address, in the midst of which the announcement of the arrival of his train cut the meeting short, and the crowd, now augmented to 47 persons, fhlly two-thirds of which were republicans filed out. It was by far the chilliest reception ever given political speakers within our memory, even the names Washington, Lincoln, Jackson, McKinley, Roose velt, LaFollett or, the saints be mer ciful, the great Bryan, failing to cre ate the least applause. Oh, it was icy! GRAND OPENING SALE -of Buggies&Carriaffes On account of the crowd ed condition of our store room during the tearing down of the old and the building of our New Store, we were compelled to neg lect certain branches of our business and Carnages on account of the extra amount of floor space required to han dle them satisfactorily, suffered the greotest neglect.

If a stove wastes the fuel and only a part of the heat is extracted, vour fuel bills are higher than they should be. It is therefore protitabe for you to pet a stove that will get all the heat out of the fuel and not waste it. The Genuine Round Oah is the stove that will do it. even the smoke which it sends out of the chimney is clear, showing that the gass es and soot have been burned and all the heat extracted. The comfort of a stove that is everything it ought to be, that gives heat, holds the fire, that lasts, always good and efficient is worth almost any cost. The Round Oah is a source of comfort in thousands of homes, it will prove the same in yours. Give us the opportunity to explain to you the reasons w hy it excels all other stoves.

The other kind^not t he DiU'htield Spreader—does this class of work. Every manure spreader should have a good substantial end-gate between the load and the beater wheel. This end-gate is necessary to keep the load away from the wheel until this wheel is put in motion. If this end-gate or ••tail-gate" does its work properly, the distribution will be the same on the start as at any other time. Tire packing of the manure against the beater wheel while hauling the loaded spreader to the field is what causes the big bunch when the machine first starts. To avoid this bunching, the Litchfield Spreader uses a solid end-gate that will hold the load, not simply a comb or springs, because a heavy load cannot be kept away from the wheel witli spring teeth. A mov able wheel or spring teeth designed to take the place of a solid end-gate will not work on fine manure or manufactured fertilizer. All spreaders should have a solid end-gate like the "Litchfield’; uses, to keep the load in the box, whether it is fine or coarse and hold it there until the spreader is ready to distribute in the field. We do not want to discredit other machines, that do good work after the first bunch is dumped on the ground, but we want to tell our trade that the Litchfield Spreader does universally good work, right from the start and that this is one of the many reasons why this spreader is, entitled to the careful investigation of our customers. If a spreader is used to haul a load any consideiable distance or if used over rough roads, or on up-hill grades, the tendency of the load is to crowd bock and pack against the rear. An end-gate (not an excuse for one) is just gs necessary as it is in a farm wagon. Like the other necessary features for a modern spreader, this takes a prominent place a prominent place on the Litchfield machine. We have explained why a rear end-gate or tail-ga te is a necessity to pre vent bunching; and next week we are going to tell you about another end gate proposition that also has much to do with bunching. We are pretty busy taking care of business on our other iines, as well as spreaders, but we are going to try and find time to post our patrons on this machine. T. M. BUD.
