Popular song of tbe New Year— “I'm on the Water Wagon Now.’’ Bryan does not seem to like Taft's selection of cabinet officers so far. That’s too bad. Congress appropriated $800,000 for tbe relief of the earthquake sufferers of southern Italy. Over $100,000 lias been sent from tiie United States to the stricken earthquake district of Italy. The senatorial tight in Ohio was won last Thursday by Burton, Taft and Foraker getting out of the race. M. P. McDonald of Kearney suc ceeds J. E. Dalzell on the State Board of Education, receiving his appoint ment Monday. J. B. Dean, a democratic lawyer of Broken Bow, has been named for the vacant one-year judgship. Now, will he do the Sullivan resigning stunt? The county democratic central com mittee filed its expense account in the late campaign as $50. No tiling of campaign expenses have been made with the county clerk for the popu list, prohibition or socialist parties, leaving the inference that they had no money nor expended any. Representative E. A. Brown left for Lincoln last Saturday morninv to be present at the opening session of the legislature Tuesday morning of this week. Sherman county will expect a good report from their representative this being his second term, and he being onto the ropes, as it were. It is predicted that the great earth quake in Southern Italy last week, an account of which is given on an other page of the Northwestern, will prove the most destructive of life and property of any ever in the history of the world. The latest estimate of loss of life is placed at 275,000 and over. Judge Hostetler has fixed the dis trictcourt sesionsfor Sherman county this year as follows: Equity terms. April 6th and Nov. 30: jury term, Sept. 14. In Buffalo, equity term, March 1, $nd jury terms. May 1 and Dec. 6; in Custer, equity term. May 24. and jury terms, Feb. 8 and Oct. 4: in Dawson, equity term, June 7, and jury terms. March 8 and Nov. 8. Labor leaders seem to be up against a proposition these days. Last week Wednesday, Gompers. who tried to deliver the labor vote to Bryan in the late campaign, was sentenced to a year in the penitentiary for alleged boycotting, while Mitchell and Morri son, vice president and secretary of the Federation of Labor, of which Gompers is president, were also given nine and six months' sentence, res pectively. The tone of the resolutions in vestigating Roosevelt for alleged slander of the pretty boys of congress, were toned way down from what one would have supposed from their angry passions at the close of the reading of the message containing said alleged defamation of their saintly characters. We can even at this time imagine seeing the warm smile of Teddy as/he turns the blubbering boys over his lap and ad ministers the shingle. According to latest reports, Pitts burg bids fair to outrival Frisco in sensational graft prosecutions. Nine arrests of the most prominent; men of that city have been made over muni cipal grafts, and six other of the big fellows have departed for unknown points to escape arress. Ruef and his gang of San Francisco scoundrels are apt to be placed in the shadow by the greater scoundrelism of the Pittsburg fellows draft expositions aregetting to be all the go nowadays. It is claimed that the democratic legislature will institute a campaign to oust two of Gov. Sheldon’s appoin tees to the supreme bench ami put in two democrats instead. Whatever the outcome or result of the trouble aris ing over tiie appointment of supreme judges, it seems to us that Gov. Sheldon was unwise in not courteous ly appointing two judges from each party and thereby hiding his soreness over defeat, even if lie could not eliminate It from under liis hatband. A portion of the legislative pre liminary agony is over, the demo cratic house and senatorial caucuses on Monday selecting tiie principal appointive offices of the incoming legislature. For the house. C. W. Pool of Tecumseli was chosen speaker but shorn of any appointive power over employees, making him merely an official automaton, so to speak, and making Trenmore Cone of W'alioo, chief clerk. In the senate, G. W. Tibbets of Hastings was chosen for president pro tern, with W. II. Smith, editor of the Seward democratic P iper, for secretary of the senate, Rich Reading for Re~j publicans. Last week the Northwestern de mandedof George Gibson, theastute(V) chairman of the one-man-chosen re-' publican county central committee, tlfat he tile his statement of campaign receipts and expenditures with the county clerk as required by law, and which should have been tiled within 20 days after election, showing date of each receipt and disbursement, with name of each person from whom received or to whom paid, and THE OBJECT OR PURPOSE for which same was received or disbursed. On January 1st of this year, NEARLY TWO MONTHS AFTER ELEC TION, he tiled the following affidavit, which is very explicit, very, but fails in the very essence of the demand of the law. We copy from the sworn affidavit, orthography and all: Receipts- - Oct. 2. ’08, I). C. Grow $1; S. A. Pratt $1, F. Paste 50c:, L. Han sen 50c, Walker, Zing and Wolf 25c each. B. J. Swanson 50c, W. T.

I)id you enjoy the holiday vacation? School began on schedule time Mon day with practically all pupils present and eager for work. The indications are that the succeeding term is to be the best in the history of the school. We failed to mention in our last notes a new departure inaugurated by Supt. O’Connell, urging all classes to take the state examination under the county superintendent, whenever a class has finished a subject. Last month the class in book keeping registered and received good grades. This is the regular teachers' examina tion in which all papers are graded in the office of the State Superinten dent at Lincoln. The members of the book keeping class are proud of their success and of being the first to set this high standard for the school. Normal Training Inspector J. A. Droney of Lincoln, paid an official visit to the school and was highly pleased with the normal training class. He gave us an interestingtalk at chapel and in the evening said we had one of the best normal classes in the state. The pupils of Mr. Young’s room have purchased a lovely book-case and some beautiful pictures for tbeir room with the proceeds from the enter tainment they gave a short time ago. There is a noted absence of pupils in the eighth grade this week on account of sickness. Thanks to the following new and renewal readers since the New Year: Fred P. King, W. B. Owen, L..C.

Johan sen. A. S. Main. HYMENEAL. Zimmerman-Owen. Last week Wednesday evening, Dec. 30, 1908, at the First Presbyterian church in this city, occurred the marriage of Miss Elizabeth Zimmer man, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Zimmerman, to Mr. William B. Owen, of North Yakima, Wash. It was one of the most notable weddings occurring in this city in the past, and gotten up in the most elaborate manner. The ceremony took place at 8 o’clock in the evening before a large company of invited guests, Rev. L. C. McEwen of Kearney officiating. The church was tastefully decorated with potted plants, smilax and holly, and canopy of ribbons extending from the center of the edifice to the pulpit. At precisely 8 o’clock, to the sweet strains of the wedding march, with Miss Mabel Owen, sister of the groom, presiding at the organ, the ushers escorted the families of the bride and groom to seats reserved for them on the right of the main aisle. Shortly after, Prof. Floyd F. Speaker, acting as best man to the groom, entered from a door on the left aisle of the church, simultaneously with the en trance at the main aisle of the brides maid, Miss Elva Zimmerman, sister of the bride, marching to their stations In the front of the church. Following the best man, came the groom, while following the brides maid came the bride daintily attired in white satin, leaning on the arm of her father, and was received at the altar by the groom, when the words were spoken that united their lives, the beautiful ring ceremony being used, at the close of which the bridal party went to the home of the bride’s parents where a reception to a few select friends took place, Besides the parties above mentioned, Messrs. Arthur Brown and Rex Jeffords were ushers, and Misses Ernie Odendahl, .less Culley, Lena Smith, Mary Min shull, Emma Williams and Pearle Needham were maids of honor. The bride is too well know n to readers of the Northwestern to need comment at our hands. Growing from early childhood to womanhood in Loup City and Sherman county, a bright, talent ed girl, favorite with a large circle of friends of all ages, an excellent musician and teacher of one of the largest music classes in our city, she has won her way into the hearts of all by her sweet disposition and active work in the church, of which she has been leader of the choir for many months. Of the groom, our people know little, but by reputation lie is a bright, talented young man, for sev eral years teacher of voice culture in colleges, but at present employed in government reclamation service with headquarters at North Yakima, Wash., where the happy couple will make their home. They left Thurs day morning for a few days at the home of the groom’s parents at Toledo, Iowa, and from there will go immediately to North Yakima. We voice our people in their entirety, when we wish for Mr. and Mrs. Owen a bright, prosperous and happy future. Those present at the wedding from a distance were: Mrs. J. A. Owen. Miss Mabel Owen and Master Alfred Owen, mother, sister and brother of the groom from Toledo, Iowa, and Prof. Floyd F. Speaker, principal of schools at Prbana. Iowa. Larsen Jack. The Austin church was the scene of a very pretty wedding on Wednesday, Dec. 30, 1908, when Fred C. Jack and Miss Marie Larsen were united in marriage by Rev. D. W. James of the Baptist church at high noon, in the presence of a large number of relatives and friends. The bride was aftended by her sister, Miss Laura Larsen, and Mr. John Needham was best man to the groom. At high noon to the strains of the Loliegrin wedding march played by Miss Byrdee Need ham, the bridal party entered and took their places beneath a canopy of green and white decorations hung with white bells where the ceremony took place,after which they marched to the hall where they received congratula tions, when some thirty friends drove to the home of the bride’s parents and partook of a delicious luncheon. On Thursday evening following a recep tion was given the happy couple at the M. W. A. hall in Rockville at which there were about two hundred and fifty guests. They were the re cipients of many handsome and use ful presents. They will farm near Austin. Goodell-Cox. On Wednesday, Dec. 30, 1908, Mr. Alvah E. Cox and Miss Laura L. Goodell were married at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. L. Goodell in south Loup City town ship. At 10 o’clock a. m., while Mrs. C, R. Sweetland played the wedding march, the bridal pair marched into the parlor and took their places and the nuptial knot was tied by D. W. James, pastor of the Loup City Bap tist church. Mr. and Mrs. Cox will make their home at Bladen, Neb., where Mr. Cox is engaged in the mer cantile business. *#* The Elma B.

On account of the method that is being practiced by unscrupulous competition, we hereby challenge anv Stock Food or Remedy Company in the County to make a test with us. We will go into any herd of hogs, and cut out 20 head of the culls, and will then give our competitor the privilege of selecting 10 best out of the lot. we will take the remaining 10 head and guarantee to produce as much fat with 8 bushels of corn as you or he can with 10 bushels, or lose $200.00 in ten weeks test. Gentlemen, this means business, if you have what you claim, the same goods, only under a different brand, come out and prove it to the farmer. We guarantee to save 00 per cent of any herd we treat, or the goods cost you absolutely nothing. Gen tlemen, can you afford to be without this protection, when the Government reports show that the loss of hog in this state alone amounts to more than a million dollars annually? Do you want to help make up this loss? Certainly not. Then let us protect you. Stock Raisers The above statement ought to prove the value of our goods, when we can produce as much fat with 8 bushel of corn as you can with 10, we immediately become a benefactor to you, by increasing the earning power of the corn.

While you are growing hogs you have but one object in view that of making money, and when we stand ready to go into a 10 weeks test, backed up with a guarantee of Two Hundred Dollars, deposited in any bank, that our Remedy will do as claimed, it cer tainly proves that we have got value in our goods, and you cannot afford to be without them MR.

COUNCIL BLUFFS REMEDY COMPANY Manufacturers of Stock Remedies, Not Food EDITORS ON EVANGELISM Aurora Sun vs. Minden Courier. Aurora has had an eight weeks revival With only nine conversions, eight of whdm were girls. For this seeming failure the Aurora Sun claims it is due to the evangelist, Rev. Rick, He did not back up his bible state ments with scientific truths. The Sun claims that this is a scientific age and many men will not accept the doctrine of future punishment solely on bibical authority. The editor of the Sun is living about fifty years behind the times. Future punishment used to be a drawing card but it is obselete now and is only now and then referred to. The successful evangelist must insult the greater portion of the community and the more slang he uses and the more, rag-time music, the better.— Minden Courier. The editor of the Courier evidently belongs to that class which, with no accurate information, proceeds to judge a popular revival effort by such scraps of misinformation as public rumor and prejudice may bring to him. The leaders of the great denomi nations, men who have made their mark in the financial and intellectual life of the country, men for instance like John Wannamaker, plan deliber ately and maturely for revivals, be cause they think these timesof religi ous interest are beneficial. All the leading protestant denominations are sending out revivalists, men like Moody, Sankey, Chapman, Prof. Henry Drummond and many others of lesser ability, but of equal purity of life and motive. It is the testimony of leading historians whose namesand works we can give if neceseary, that these revival efforts have been pro ductive of great good, causing many to pay their debts, be reconciled to their enemies and in general to change their whole manner of life. But now comes this Minden editor, saying that the avtrage successful evangelist must insult his audience, etc., etc. Mliere is no better example of a man’s cutting and slashing about in supreme ignoranee of the fact that he is running couneer to the judg ment of really well informed men. “A .little knowleege is a dangerous thing.” A smattering of information, but no substantial learning, is the best way to describe his remarks concerning future punishment. The late Prof Huxley, one of the greatest scientists says that the idea current in some quarters that modern research has de stroyed the basis of punishment is altogether contrary to the facts and that the deeper science goes in her study of nature, the more is the old truth illustrated, that as a man sow eth, so shall he also reap. To confess the truth, we do not generally enjoy revival meetings, nevertheless we do not like to see them misrepresented. Had the Minden editor declared that now and then a revivallist is a bad man he would have I told the truth but to say that the average revivalist is as he painted him, is entirely misleading. Instead of our being guilty of being fifty years behind the times, our Min den friend is guilty of taking the stand that many a boy does after he has studied is guilty of taking the stand that many a boy does after he has studied about a year in High School: he then comes to certain con clusions of which, should he push on through college he will in after years j be supremely ashamed.—Aurora Sun. Billy Sunday, the evangelist, got #7,350 for five weeks’ work atOttumwa recently, and then roasted the churches because he got no more, * CROSS EYES! are in 9 cases out of 10 the result of Eye-Strain, which if relieved by glasses in early life would never cause crossed eyes. Preliminary symptoms of Eye troubles that cause crossed eyes are: Pain in back of eyes; pain i» temples, sometimes running over ears; print jumps after reading for a time. These are strong symptoms that the eyes will soon cross un less the eye-strain is removed. It will pay you to see me at the St. Elmo hotel, Jan. 5. I do not go out of the hotel to work.

Celebrate Golden Anniversary On December 2s, 1858, fifty years ago in the city of Andover, Illinois, a marriage ceremony was performed uniting for better or for worse the lives of two young people. The principals to this wedding were James A. Con verse and Marie S. Penny and on last Monday this couple had the great pleasure of celebrating the Golden Wedding anniversary of thei? marriage. In commemoration of the occasion their daughter, Mrs. J. G. Walker, ex tended invitations to the many friends bo join with this happy couple in cele brating the anniversary and friends to the number of eighty-six gathered at the pretty home of Mr. and Mrs. Walker where a most enjoyable even ing was spent.

Beck were nicely rendered and appreciated by all, after wlyph a marriage cere mony especially fitting to the occasion was performed by C. P. Miller again uniting the bride and groom of fifty years ago. During the evening the guests were invited to the pretty home of Mr. and Mrs. Converse where a dainty three course supper was served, after which they returned to the Walker home. Ihe balance of the evening was spent in social intercourse and at a late hour the many guests departed for their homesafter extendingto Mr. and Mrs. Converse the choicest of life’s bless- - ingsfor a long and unbroken continua tion of their married life and manv happy returns of the day. Many nice presents were left them as mementotss of the occasion, amone which was a set of Haviland China dishes nicely decorated with a cold ?tiS their Gibbon friends and was presented 1 y Rev. M. O.
