Ed. and Pub. The Missouri senate killed the woman suffrage movement in the legislature this week. Ex-Gov. Crounse is dangerously ill at his home in Omaha, and doubts of his recovery are expressed. Major Brad Slaughter, paymas ter general of the army, and one of the most famous of Nebraskans in its past history, died in Omaha last Sunday. Politicians of Greater New York are vigorously booming ex-President Iloosevelt for mayor of that city. They say they intend t»,- force Teddy into the game. Mrs. Augusta Evans, the well known authoress and novelist, made famous by her great work, St. Elmo, died from an attack of heart failure last Sunday morning at Mobile, Ala. At the session of the grand lodge Knights of Pythias at Hastings this week, John W. Long of this city was elected grand prelate, and again a Loup City man is honored by a great organization. The express companies in Nebraska are in grief. The supreme court has decided that the Sibley act, cutting express rates 25 per cent, is not con fiscatory and these great common carriers will have to take their medi cine. Roosevelt seems to be having all kinds of lively sport in Africa. Last week he shot and killed a huge rhi noceros, and has several lion skins as a result of his hunt. He has already the skins of forty-five various ani mals prepared for the Smithsonian Institute. The Boyles man and woman kid napers of the Pennsylvania boy, Willie Whitla, have been convicted, the man being sentenced to the pen for life and the woman for 25 years. They claim they were the tools of a third party. If so, it would be a pity not to get action on the principal. A pessimistic friend prophesies we will have no rain to speak of before the first of July. He presages his belief of the seasons of the present year on those which prevailed the first twelve days of the year, and declares those days give a true photo graph of the twelve months, and that the first five days of the year and the past five months have fairly shown the conditions existing as cancelling each other so far to a dot. A good many things are laid to the hand of God, but when a lawyer says' in defense of a murderer that the killing “was bv Divine guidance,” it is about the limit. In the trial of Captain liains for tiie murder of Annis, on trial at Flushing, N. Y., on- Monday of this week, the lawyer for the defense made such specious plea, in trjing to show Hains was insane at the time of the murder. In spite of all this, Hains was found guilty of manslaughter in the first degree. The editor of the Appeal to Reason, the greatest bugaboo socialist organ, charged by the government with sending scurrillous and defamatory matter through the mails was last week found guilty as charged by the federal court at Fort Scott, Kas. Those who have seen and read the villainous sheet in the past, and especially during the Hay wood-Petti bone trial at Boise, Idaho, months since, will not be surprised at the conviction and all loyal citizens can not but feel gratified at the result. There is no need of getting unduly alarmed over the poor start made by the Lincoln team this season. There has never been a season since Lin coln has been in the league but what she has at this stage of the game held the same position as at the pres ent time. The team has always done its climbing the last three months of the season and she will be found playing ball when the time comes. It will be noticed that all the teams starting the season away from home are in the last division and it stands to reason that when Des Moines, Omaha, Sioux City and Lincoln get onto their home lots they will be doing something to the other fellows which will send the latter down the toboggan. The supreme court last Friday afternoon tiled a decision in the suit of Oldham against Dean, holding that the appointees of former Gov ernor Sheldon on the supreme bench are legally entitled to their seats; that phe appointments of Governor Shallenberger to the same positions are illegal; that the State Board of Canvassers had power to canvass the vote on the constitutional amend ment increasing the number of su preme court judges from three to seven, and that the canvass attempt ed by the legislature was without effect because the joint convention has no power to canvass, and that the acts of the legislature relating to the canvassing of votes cast for con stitutional amendments were legally adopted. The present law relating to canvassing this vots is upheld. The democrats of Nebraska seem to have gotten at all cross-purposes as a result of the work of the last and never-to-be-forgotten bourbon legislature. First, the newspaper mouthpiece of that party in the state, the long-haired, loud-mouthed, wind jamming Edgar Howard, has fur nished column after column of stuff against his party, furnishing sweet morsels to the opposition. Later comes Taylor, representative from Custer county, and reads himself out of the party in the following caustic arraignment of the dishonest, dis reputable gang that controlled the last legislature. Who will hit the door old donkey next? Here is Tay lor’s bitter pill: “The lambasting I received from C. W. Beal, Ross Moore and W. B. Eastman at the last Saturday conference of the demo cratic county committee is the st/raw which breaks the camel's tack. Justice is no longer a virtue. Every body knows that the democratic legis lature was completely helpless in the grip of the corporations, insurance companies and breweries, and fell far short of redeeming its pledges. Good honest democrats, many of them in the house, admitted by explanations to be printed in the house journal, that our party could not redeem its pledges because of the influence of corporations. And because I resisted and exposed this influence I am criticised severely: First by the World-Herald and last by these three men who claim to be friends of the people. I, for my stand, known all over the state for right and the people, am to be called an insurgent, a traitor, and such men as Ransom, Tanner, Howell and Ollis are lauded for noble work. If such is commend able, then I want and court your op position. If such is democratic, then I am not a democrat, and I am sure there are many others of the demo cratic members just like me. I know I can say without fear of the charge of egotism that I was the storm cen ter against the corrupting influences in that legislature, hence have the opposition of the bosses, pie hunters, brewers and corporations; but I am content with such opposition for I know the everyday man will like me better for such enemies. Our party has for ten years made fair profes sions, and at the first opportunity resorts to such foul practices. Our party has been traduced, the people betrayed and now you want to white wash it. The course of parsisanship is that the king can do no evil. The independent voter is the man for me. He cares more for his country than for his party and hereafter, I am going to work for the best men and measures, and I shall take particular pains to discover that they are not corporation hirelings or brewery tools.” Des Moines liad a hundred thous and dollar fire Tuesday, which for a time threatened the main portion of the business district of the city. Even millions of money can not drive away the King of Terrors. Mrs. John D. Rockefeller is said to be nearing death's door. gave mM FRIENDLY WARNING. Janitor’s Humorous Misunderstanding of Domestic Situation. The janitor of a fashionable Boston flat opened his basement door in an swer to a ring, and found there a tidy appearing young man who inquired if Mrs. Cleverington lived in the flat The janitor answering in the affirma tive, the visitor slipped him a wel come coin, and requested to be shown to that lady’s apartments. Stimulated by the money, the menial readily led the way upstairs. At Mrs. Cleverlng ton's door that lady, on beholding her long-absent college brother, flung her arms about his neck, and kissed him before the eyes of the astonished janitor. A half-hour later the flat’s handy man again hurried up the stairs and knocked at Mrs. Cleverington’s door. When it was opened by a maid he stuck his head inside until his eyes came upon "the loving couple chatting together on the sofa. ‘‘Say, young fellow," was his advice to the college brother, “you’d better get out of this. Here comes Mr. Cleverington!”—Harper’s Weekly. Confucius. The Chinese in New York have just celebrated the anniversary of the birth of Confucius. China is the oldest na tion in the world, and is believed to have been founded on the dispersion of the builders of Babel. The language is unlike any other known tongue. The government differs from all others in that it seems to have been designed to develop humanity without reference to Divine or supernatural aid, although the grossest superstitions have crept in. Confucius, who lived about 2,460 years ago, compiled the laws (as he says) from preceding authorities, which indicate three principles, or axioms, each containing a proportion of vital truth: They were filial piety, moral virtue and mental cultivation. Fines for Bachelors. Suffragette—Fines and penalties were Imposed on bachelors in Greece and Rome. At certain festivals in Sparta it was the custom for women to drag old bachelors around the altar. The victims were not handled gently. In England as late as 1786 higher taxes were imposed on the servants of bachelors than on those of other people. nojimns ■noo smenv—« jo sjqSp B,q pus jomop b jo qipteq sjq •jaqaeajd 8 jo uo{}BA[es sjq j;nq oj peifecimoa si eq joj ‘Xauora speeu b^bm[b nun b mq ‘pJBq sXbm[b ;ou eje semjx ‘M»»d qBnou b,uib SUCCESS SEPARATOR \Jhe Sftest J&airy Cream Separator SfCanufaetur ed Uoday. : : : : : 31 Perfect Pise Separator.

It baa a distinct advantage over all other machines of delicate and intricate parts. Sate Of Operation ®y te8t easiest machine on the market to operate. The ball bearings eliminate all friction. Weight Success is much heavier than any other machines. This prevents vibration and insures great durability. d he damous &urbine 3)ise SSowl The most important feature of a cream separator is the bowl. The value of the machine depends, to a great extent, upon its bowl. The "Success" separator is equipped with the world famous TUl^lNE DISC BOWL. Simple and yet so strong. No small holes, no sharp, corners, no corrugated surfaces, no obstructions from the center to the outside. A disc well made easily cleaned and one that will keep pure and sweet. The Turbine princi ple is fast becoming the most universal motive power of the mechanical world, both for land and water, because the Turbine requires less power to operate, while it develops greater force. It requires less space, and gives greater speed than any other known method of developing energy. There is no guess ork about the operation of separation with the “Suc cess separator. The cream passes one way, the milk in the opposite direction. No inteiference, no guess work. Uhe Uurbine 3)ise is the Greatest feature in any Separator on the Skarket Don't buy a separator and pay more money for it just simply because it costa more than the “Success.” When you buy the “Success" you are buying a world famous separator under a different name. The only difference is we have eliminated all sell ing and advertising expenses in offering you this separator. LM These cuts show the details of “Success” Bowl Construction. Because of the quantity contracted for and because we have eliminated all these expenses we can make you lower prices than any individual concern on earth. You cannot make as much money in a season with a $100.00 separator as you can with the “Success." POINTS THAT USERS OF THE SUCCESS FIND SUPERIOR TO ANY OTHERS: Simple mechanism. Ballbearings. Ease of turning. Ease of cleaning Low down supply can. No vibration. Capacity greater than rated. Any density of cream required. Smooth, rich cream. Better quality of butter. Larger quantity of butter. Clean skimming all the time. Easier turning, for with the Turbine principle the machine turns easier while separating than it does when bowl is empty. Dur able, becuuse of large dimensions in every shaft and bearing. Cannot get out of balance as easy as other separators on account of the construction of the bowl Equip. ped with the famous Turbine Disc, which means clean slumming and easy turning.

The second of the series of high school debates took place at Loup City last Friday evening, at which time the Ravenna debating team which recently won in a debating contest with Ord, also won from Loup Citp. The question debated was, “Resolved, That disputes between capital and labor in the railroad busi ness should be settled by boards of arbitration with compulsory powers.” In the contest with Ord the Ravenna debating team consisting of Miss Dorothy Dunkin, Darrel Lane and Arnold Lewis, took the negative side of the question and won the decision of the judges, and in Loup City they took the affirmative of the same question and the judges consisting of the superintendents of the public schools at. St. Paul. Central City and Clarks, Neb., unanimously awarded the greater number of points to the the Ravenna debaters. Having won two debates in this district a repre sentative of the Ravenna team, which will be Miss Dunkin, who has to her credit a few more points than her colleagues, will go to Lincoln and participate in a state contest. From all reports the Loup City debate was a stirring event. Thirty higli school students and teachers, chaperoned by Prof. Harrison and Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Dunkin were present from Ra venna. The people of Loup City gave them a most cordial reception and entertainment. The Loup City de baters had the most enthusiastic home support and encouragement, while the Ravenna boosters were present in sufficient numbers to be heard from. The debate was carried on amid the most enthusiastic plaudits of the people, and the contest was lively and interesting from start to finish. The Ravenna delegation re turned Saturday naturally elated over the victory of their debating team and highly pleased with the courteous entertainment provided by the Loup City people.—Ravenna News. An exchange recently published the following article with surprising re sults. “The business man of this town who is in the habit of hugging his typewriter had better quit, or we will publish his name in the paper.” The next day thirty-seven business men called at the office, paid up their subscriptions and left behind them thirty-seven columns of advertising, then told the editor not to pay any attention to foolish stories. I Of Interest to Patrons Of Rural Routes The following order of interest to Rural Route patrons has been re ceived by Postmaster Grow: “In order to expedite the delivery, collection, and dispatch of rural mail, enable rural carriers to Iccove their routes with celerity, and give the earliest possible service to patrons residing on the far ends of routes, the Department will insist that all rural mail boxes be so located as to be served with the greatest expedi tion.” “You are, therefore, directed to require each rural carrier at your office to submit to you without delay, for transmission to the Department, the names of all patrons whose boxes can not be served without leaving the road, dismounting, driving in deep ditches or on steep inclines, or on or across railway tracks involving danger, or the approaches to whose boxes are obstructed. It is not re quired that boxes shall be erected beside the wheel tracks, nor on any particular corner of the crossroads; but they must be erected within the confines of the road, and accessible, on any corner. “It is not desirable that boxes be attached to telegraph, telephone, or electric-light poles, or to fences or buildings, but boxes should be secure ly fastened to neat and strong posts firmly set at the sides of the roads, at a sufficient height to be served by carriers without rising from their seats or reaching through wheel spokes. “When roads are in bad condition, postmasters are directed to make re port thereof to the Department, and to the proper local road officials and cooperate with them and patrons to the fullest extent, consistent with position and duty, to secure the im provement of the roads. The mani festation of interest and propel ry directed efforts by postmasters in the good-roads question will in many in stances be productive of excellent results.” The Nebraska State Fair Stake Races close on May 15th, and consist of a 2:35, 2:21 and 2:15 Trot and a 2:30, 2:22 and 2:14 Pace, each for a purse of $1000, and three-year-old Trot and three-year-old Pace, each for purses of $500.
