The World-Herald claims the elec tion of its editor to congress is a democratic victory. Where do the populists come in? One wouldn't suspect I)ar Grow of being such a sprinter as his vote evi dences. But it only proves that appearances don’t always appear. And now it is said the edict has gone forth from “Me and the Little Fellow’’ that Charley Buesliausen comes next. Of course it’s all up with Charley. Outside of four or possibly five in Nebraska. (Sherman, of course, in cluded) there seems to lie little evi dence of populism being a force to count much. Just to think of it, Colorado’s new governor a republican and a Meth odist preacher at that. Colorado sees Nebraska of four years ago and goes one farther, along that line. i Edgar Howard, humorously desig nated as “Judge” Howard by those who really know him least, the re trievor of the democratic huntsmen of the state, is another one of the few democratic editors of the state who have attempted to make a successful paper in the Fremont Herald,s un disputed territory and have fallen ; down in the attempt. Howard lias : sold out his interest in a newspaper j there and will confine his efforts to his democratic paper at Columbus. I There is not a more over-rated news I baper in Nebraska than this same i Edgar Howard. But there is yet some chance for him. as he lias lately , discarded his long, flowing locks, and 1 to a great extent done away with his old-time affected drawl. I And now it is claimed that the feel i ing between the democrats and popu lists of this state has reached the climax of ill feeling, over the results of the late election, and they will divorce themselves from one another. The democrats claim, and not with out justification, that the populists knifed Shallenberger over the entire state at the late election, and will go it alone hereafter. But they will not. Their only hope of doing up republi canism in Nebraska lies in occupying the samejbed with populism, and they do not propose to sleep with cold feet as long as they can stand a chance to warm them against the populist body. ilThe church service that drags will not draw men.” — Rockville Items. Rufus Hiddleson of Loup City is attending the Rockville school. Louie Hansen went to Dannebrog to attend the funeral of his grand mother. who died last Saturday at the age of 71 years. Hans Hehnke had his house re shingled last Friday. Johnson Bros, did the work. W. M. Smelser has installed a new lighting system consisting of seven mantles. Jas. Coulter commenced husking corn Monoav, hauling it from the field to market at 26c per bushel. C. Nielson went to Loup City last Tuesday. Mr. D. I. Price went to Riverdale, first station out of Kearney on the Callaway branch, where he will take charge of the U. P. station. Mr. Price is an old pioneer of Rockville, being the oldest resident. He will be sadly missed by the people who are sorry to see him go as he was a man who al ways attended strictly to business. He came here in 1891. W. C. Steven son takes his place. A Prophecy tor 1908. During the last thirty years an as trologer who resides in New Jersey has made some remarkable forecasts of public events, and those prophecies always “printed in the Washington Post, have attracted wide attention. Last week the New Jersey seer gave to the Post the following prophecy regarding elie campaign of 1098: The democratic convention will be held at Denver, and will nominate Bryan. The utmost good feeling wiil prevail and the party be thoroughly and harmoniously united. The repub lican convention, meeting in Philadel-! phia, will nominate Roosevelt on the third ballot through secretary JTfat’s forces going over to him. The nest high man will bs Vice President Fair banks. Mr. Bryan's running mate will be "a man named Williams.” The re-1 publican vice president nominee will be some man in Kansas whose name the stars refuse to give down. The campaign issues will be the tariff and the rate bill, "which has;been found to be inadequate.” Republican speakers will insist that continued prosperity depends on Roosevelt's re-election. And this is the conclusion: “When the votes are all counted, I can see that Bryan won by a great majority, carrying with him a democratic ma jority or the representatives to con gress.” Reports from trade centers show that the chief drag on business is the difficulty of securing enough men for the work in hand. Do the people re member 18% and how it was then? It don’t take much to make Bryan “see things.” Since election he “sees” that the United States is preparing to go democratic in 1%8. Do you re member his prophecies not so* many years since? Contractors of immense buildings seem these days to lie in league with the old man of the scythe. The crumbling of the walls of the great hotel being builded at Long Beach, in Southern California a few days ago is a point in instance. It was a pretty Loup City girl with rich, pouting lips, who said to her escort the other evening, “My motto is to do unto all men as you would have them do to you,” and the poor dazed fellow didn’t catch on. By the election returns from New York it will be seen that the state went democratic on all state offices, save that of governor, and possibly lieutentantrgovemor—the returns on the latter being undecided. While here in attendance on the dedicatory services of the M. E. church last Sunday, Gov. Mickey ex pressed himself as deeply gratified over the election and splendid vote given Geo. H. Sheldon for governor and predicts from him one of the best administrations of Nebraska's chief executive office ever given the people of the state. The governor expressed himself as well pleased that his own term expires so soon, and will gladly turn over the executive office to the incoming governor. Of Governor Mickey, the Northwestern can gladly say he has been one of the best busi ness executives this state has ever had, and if he has made some mis takes, and who does not, those mis were of the head and not. the heart, and he steps down and out with the best of good will of the people of the state at large, and even his enemies will have to acknowledge that he has been honest and true to his con victions in everything lie has done. All honor to such a man. Good Season for Iceberg*. There is something wrong up nound the north pole. Apparently I’s warmer up there this season than 'or a long time, for never in the mem fry of sea captains has the North At lantic been spired with so many ice bergs. They have been chipping ofl 'rom the great polar ice fields like 'rosting from a cake and have be come such a menace to navigation that a half dozen steamship lines have ssued orders to the commanders of heir ships to change their courses to t mora southerly one. This means .hat most of the liner3 will hereafter tban-lcn the short route followed dur ng the summer months. Found Historic Stone. A laborer in New Jersey in excavat ing for a monument in a cemetery dug up a meteor fragment weighing 25 pounds. It seemed to be composed of fused minerals, glass, stone and steel. It also contained a mixture of various colored stones intermingled through the otherwise gray mass.

Southwest Africa, which has. been he scene of a disastrous and dilatory war for nearly three years, is the only German colony favorable for Europsan settlement, and this land is so poorly supplied with water that an area of from 5,000 to 10,000 acres ic necessary to keep alive the herds of even a small ranch.

Many people are under the impres sion that “Mother Goose's” stories and nursery rhymes were written by some old housewife. This is a mistake. The real author was a scholar of learning and renown, Charles Perrault, one of the first members of the French acad emy. He died in 1703, and though it Is over two hundred years ago. his tales still lire.

The manufacturers of the Litchfield Spreader had this question put to them by a prominent machine man, he explaining at the time that if he was selling a Spreader with the many advantages found in this no-choke endless conveyer and which he could put out under a five year guarantee, as we are doing with the Litchfield Spreader, that he would not “hide his light under a bushel,” but would let the people know what he had. This put the company and ourselves to thinking, and as our readers know, we liave been trying to place the actual facts and figures before our customers, so they could use their own judgment. The reason why you do not hear more of the no-choke, endless conveyer is because no machine uses it except the Litchfield. No other spreader can utilize this broadiy patented, mechanical device, and for this reason com plimentary remark’s from competition are not very freely given. This end less conveyer with the no-choking, swinging sections was developed because of a clearly apparent demand for the same, and the wonderful momentum given to the sales of the Litchfield Spreader, by reason of this one particular feature, is the best evidence the manufacturers can offer of its rapidly in creasing popularity. It is a winner, because all complicated machinery for returning it to its original starting point is unnecessary. It is a simple, plain, every day affair, and does the business without the heed of an expert mechanic to keep it in working order. There is no stopping except when you get through with it, and then it rests until another load is to be handled. The life is much longer than the other kind. It runs much more smoothly and gives much more smoothly and gives much better general results and satisfaction. It is just the simple, plain every day conveyer, which all Spreaders should have but which prsor to the invention of the no-choke device was not practical in cold weather or under various other unfavorable conditions. The only favor we ask is an opportunity to show our customers what this modern Spreader will do,—the only Spreader made and sold under a guarantee for five years. To be continued next week. V. M.
