CONGRESS IS ROOSEVELTIAN Nebraska Republican bv 15,000 Legislature 88 Repub lican on Joint Ballot Nebraska All Right So far as county returns go. the Northwestern does not feel especially elated, nor is the record of the same calculated to arouse enthusiasm from a republican standpoint, as will be seen by the vote given below. That Sherman is naturally a fusion county, there exists little doubt in our mind, but that it will remain a fusion coun ty we believe next year's election will demonstrate to the contrary. But wait and see. The writer is not provided with the gift of second sight nor with any miraculous powers, hence can not give the reasons for the vast difference in the votes recorded, nor will we undertake to try. Be it said that in regard to the county attorneyship, Mr. Starr had to bear unnumbered burdens not by right his own. and when we consider the wort: against him and the elements contained for i lbs defeat, it is little wonder that his vote is as represented. But Robert I P. Starr is a republican and will re l main a republican under triumph or defeat, as he is built of ths.t kind of material, arid will arise out of the present like Aiax of old, strong for the fray, nor knows nor acknowledges such thing as defeat or faint-hearted ness. and no sore nor weak spots will be found in his armor. In the race for representative. Carle T. McKinnie lias shown a strength that was not expected by the average voter, and considering that bis opponent was one of the strongest men in the county, a resi dent for the greater part of his life in Sherman county, the editor of the fusion party organ and a man whom everybody knew well and favor ably, and from the further fact that Mr. McKinnie had to bear the heavy burden of the support of a certain , element detested by the great body of republicans of this county, which worked to the disadvantage of Mr. McKinnie's candidacy, the fact that Carle T. McKinnie only fell seven votes behind that of Gov. Sheldon speaks volumes for the strength of our candidate for representative. Wliile we have lost out on represen tative in this county, we have won in this senatorial district. R. M. Thomp son. rep., being elected by approx imately 150 majority, according to re turns received. Abstract of the county vote next week.

General Election News While Sherman county has given a little sprinkle of cold water upon lo cal republican sentiment the news from the state at large and from the other state elections were of a most pleasing nature. News by phone to the Northwest ern from W. R. Mellorat Lincoln last evening states that Sheldon and the entire republican state ticket has been elected by majorities ranging between 15.000 and 20.000. The legis lature. also, will be republican by ss on joint ballot. The only bad break in the congressional directory will be found in the election of Gilbert M. Hitchcock, editor of theOmaha World Herald. in the 1st district, who is re ported to have defeated Kennedy, the republican congressman, by the small figures of 250. but later figures may wipe that out and secure the re turn of Congressman Kennedy to the National lower house. New York has gone republican by 60.000, and elects Hughes, rep., to the governorship. A splendid day s work when the people refuse to honor the .dastardly demagogue. Hearst. Cummins is elected in Iowa all right, but at reduced majorities, ow ing to the Perkins sorehead vote. Wisconsin. New Hampshire and Conneticut returns go to show re publidan victories in those states. All in all, republicanism is tri umphant everywhere except in the 22 states holding elections. Michigan elects Warner, rep., for governor around the 100,000 mark. j Massachusetts republicans win in the election of Guild for governor. Returns from Chicago indicate! sweeping republican victories. Minnesota makes a toboggan slide into the democratic camp. Colorado has gone over to Repub licanism in good shape. The National house and senate is safely republican. Indiana is republican by 35.000 to 40.000. Ohio goes republican all right. Advertise in Local Papers. Gov. Folk in his address to the retail merchants of Missouri at their convention at .Jefferson city gave the following valuable advice to the coun-. try merchants: "We are proud of our splendid cities and we want them to increase in wealth and population, and we also want our country towns to grow. We wish the city merchants to build up. but we also desire the country mer chants to prosper. I do not believe in the mail order citizen. If a place is good enough for a man to live in. it is good enoug for him to spend his money in. “No merchant can succeed without advertising in one way or another. Patronize your town papers, build them up. and they will build the town up and build you up an increased trade and greater opportunities. Do not be afraid that business is going to be hurt by the recent exposures of wrong doing in the commercial world. No man who is doing an honest business can be injured by the light. All busi ness will be better for the cleansing 1 process it is going through and the stamping out of the evil." He Was Very Bashful. Theo. Widaman tells the follow ing story on one of his brothers who was \ married a number of years ago. "Yon don't know how bashful my brother was when he got married. The I gals just worried the life out of him. When lie stood up to get married they all giggled, and when the minister j asked him if he'd take the woman to be his wedded wifr. he said "purty well, thankee" and when lie pro-1 nounced them man and wife, and said ••what God has joined together let no man rip apart." he broke down and bawled. Oh! it was horrible! Bout eleven o’clock the old man sez: "Your room is at the head o' the stair." he was so skeered that when lie tried to stand up his legs gave way and he fell over the dog and got bit in three j places. He waited till every one had gone to bed. then crawled up stairs i like a spoon thief. He was afraid to j go in, so he sat on the stairs and shivered. It’s no use. sez he. wat's i got to be he7. So he took off his clothes in the dark and shut his eyes Then he made a break for the door He found the bed. pulled the cover j over his head and laid on tlie front rail. In the morning he peeped thro' j his fingers to see if he could dress i and get out before hits wife woke up.: and hang It all, if be wasn't in bed j with the old man ancl woman.” < • I E. S. HAYHURST, I I Loup City, Neb. | flafd of Soft Goal coke or wood: whatever fuel you use costs mhney. You have to pay sc much for it. whether you get all the heat out of it’or not. If a stove wastes the fuel and only a part ot the heat is extracted, your fuel bills are higher than they should be. It is therefore protitabe for you to get 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 md all the heat extracted. The comfort of a stove that is everything it ought to be. that gives heat, holds the tire, that lasts, always good arid efficient is worth almost any cost.

We want to call the attention of our customers to the all-important question of haw the team shall be hitched to the manure Sprtader. It is a momentous question and often not artfully considered—how to get free, flexible movement to the pole without loading the team unnecessarily. When you examine the Litchfield Manure Spreader you will see what | we mean. You will find that the hitch is low. and that the draft on the tugs practically takes all weight off from the necks of the horses. This is something that is impossible with those machines where the front axle is not braced to the Spreader and where the tongue is obliged to answer the purpose. We cannot think that any sensible man will want to brace his front axle on his horses necks, as it is necessary to do where the tongue is the only retaining brace or support for this front axle. Examine the Litchfield Spreader and see how our bolster is braced to tins front of the frame and how the axle is connected bj a high carbon steel brace. back under the body of the machine. A thorough bracing of the front axle, so that that the wheels cannot be I pulled out from under the machine or collapsed back under it when striking chuck-holes and other obstructions is absolutely necessary,. Many manu facturers put this bracing strain on to the tongue and therefore on to the horses' necks, instead of confining this bracing to the machine itself. The tong ue on any vehicle should be merely a means of guiding the vehicle and should be hinged freely, so that no load up or down sliali come against the liorses. It is not wise to drag down on your horses' necks when pulling the machine through heavy ground o:r throng bad chuck-lioles; neither is it advisable to throw the point of the tongue in the air as high as the harness will permit it to go, when backing up in bad places. In other words, we say, hinge four tongue freely to the Spreader, or. if your team most carry part of the load, put it on to their backs, and not on to their necks. Be sure to watch this space next week. T. M. R11D,
