Political Announcements
FOR COUNTY TREASURER
I hereby annonnce myself as a candidate for
the office of County Treasurer on the demo
cratic ticket, subject to the action of the
electors at the primaries. O. F. Peterson.
FOR SHERIFF
I hereby announce myself as a candidate for
re-election to the oltice of Sheriff of Sherman
county, Nebraska, subject to the will of the
Republican voters at the coming primary elec

It is thought tliatsome of these days
the Lincoln club will win a game of
ball.
Look out for the total eclipse of the
sun this evening, beginning about 0:10
and lasting some two hours.
Talking about base ball, a 24-inning
game was held in San Francisco the
other day. That's going some.
Edward Everett Hale, tne veteran
chaplain of the U. S. senate, died
last Thursday, aged 89 years. He
was one of the greatest literary men
of the past century: >a truly great
man.
Are you a candidate for county
office this fall? If so. let the people
know it with the best possible pub
licity—announcement in the county
papers, and of course, especially
through the Northwestern.
J udge, the little Indian outfielder
of the Lincoln team is doing the same
tine work this season that distinguished
him last year. He is covering a lot
of territory in the outer garden and
hitting the ball hard. Jude belongs
to the Chippawa tribe of Indians.
The democrats of Nebraska are
building great hopes over the repert
that Bryan will be a candidate for
the U. S. senate. They want a rep
resentative in the senate and of course
they have only one man, prophet and
seer--Bryan and he is their only hope.
Some one informs us that Gitison’s
“Standing Joke,” Honest Bill, had
another open letter in the Dinky last
week, exploded in this direction. As
the Northwestern only exchanges
with reputable papers, the exudation
from the slimy pores of the musky
affair has not come under the obser
vation of the writer.
W. II. Harrison of Grand Island has
cast the political horoscope with his
thoroughness. He sees not on v one
but two county option platforms in
in Nebraska in 1910. One will lie ad
opted by the republicans of course.
The other he sees adopted by the
democrats. Why? Because the im
pression is getting stronger every day
that Nebraska is a dry state, and the
democrats don't want to get licked.
State Journal.
The death of such a man as Edward
Everett Hale occasions much leaping
at the sun by those who feel called to
put in a sentence or two the life he
lived and its meaning. So long and
fruitful a life is not so briefly disposed
of. The sage who has just left us
lived and did in a way to gain a rare
homage. Tolstoy,.I ulia Ward Howe,
Florence Nightingale—who eise now
living can be listened with him in
world wide veneration? It is worth
searching volumes by him and about
him to learn the secret of the rever
ence in which he was universally held.
Unless appearance and common opin
ion are misleading the secret will be
found an old and simple one: great
personal power coupled with extra
ordinary unselfishness. Who ever
heard or thought of Edward Everett
Hale except as poing something for
somebody else?—Lincoln Journal.
The fact of the total eclipse of the
sun this evening from (i to * o'clock,
recalls to ‘the editor the total eclipse
of Old Sol in 1800. The writer at that
time was a youth of 15 years and living
at Boone, Iowa. As the sun became
darkened, everybody procured apiece
of smoked glass, and every house top
and vacant space where good sight
could be had was used by the people.
One instance we very well recall, was
that of a young German about 20 odd
years of age, who was imbued with
the idea that the world was coming
to an end, and so frightened did he
become that lie went into the Odd
Fellow lodge room in the second story
of a store building on Main street and
could be heard lustily praying the
meanwhile, and as the darkness in
tensified his prayer became louder
and more urgent, until lie might be
heard for more than a block away. As
the shadow psssed away and the face
of the sun began to lighten the earth,
the young fellow decended the starway
very crestfallen and shamedfaeed,
only to hasten away from the smiles
and joking remarks-of those who had
gathered to witness the outcome. As
the eclipse neared totality, fowls
seemed to think night had come and
went to roost in the nearest conven
ient places, and all nature took on
the aspect of night. If we remember
right, the time the sun was com
pletely hidden was but a few seconds
but to the anxious observer the time
from the beginning of the shadow till
the total eclipse semed to move so
slowly that it appeared itwould never
come. The eclipse then, if we re
member correctly, was about noon
time or a little after.
To the voters of Sherman Coun
ty, Nebraska
Soliciting your support and votes
for the nomination to the office of
County Treasurer and applying for
endorsement hv the People's Inde
pendent and the Democratic Party
organizations, I here make known
my candidacy for this nomination.
To this announcement and the race
for the office and its emoluments.
I confess that 1 am not urged by
“Many Friends” as is the custom, nor
is there that loud and persistent call
at large for my services—as it should
regularly he—but the announcement
proceeds, so far as I know, not from
any weightier reasons than my desire
to hold the office with your kind
indulgence. Very truly yours,
Louis Rein.
Mayor Pahlman may sound all
right to the people of Omaha, but
the people of Nebraska will never
stand for Governor Dalilman.—St.

While the State Journal has been
one of the leading papers of the state
for nearly forty years, yet its most
rapid growth has been recently, dur
ing which time it has come to be
recognized by many as Nebraska's
greatest paper, making most of those
things that interest Nebraskans most
in this way creating a place for itself
in the daily life of thousands of Ne
braska homes. The country press
generally could be quoted as saying
that the editorial page of The Journal
is exceptionally strong and fearles.<ty
independent. It is also unusually
bright, Bixbv himself l>eing a gem.
No writer in Nebraska ever had the
warm admiration of so many people
as Bixbv. His column in the Journal
is alone worth the price of the paper.
His wholesome philosophy will put
sunshine and cheer into the most
chronic grouch. The state university,
the state house and all other public
institutions at Lincoln make the
Journal peculiarly a paper for the
state people. It is clean, excluding
all liquor and impure medical adver
tising. Its sporting department is
clever and there with the goods.
More money is spent for state tele
graphic news than by other state
dailies. If you want to know what
is happening in Nebraska, as well as
the whole world. The Lincoln Journal
is the paper for you. Why not give
it a trial subscription?

a shock from the same bolt while

It was close enough that it burned

at this point but was heavy south and
east, about it miles wide and reaches
