The hog seems to think lie's a regu
lar Hying machine now-a-days. Last!
Friday at Kansas City, he was selling
at $9.22 1-2. at Louisville. Ky.. $9.50,
and in Chieago at $9-47 1-2. It looks
like $10 pork doesn't it?
Cook, the Artie explorer, who did
not tind the north pole, has again
lieen located and this time down in 1
Chile, the extreme South American
republic. Maybe he is on his way to
discover the south pole, and taking
along his faithful wife to prove liis
tind.
As will i*e noticed by a telegram
from Omaha in this issue, and by
reports from over the state generally,
it will te seen that corn over the j
state is almost absolutely worthless!
for seed and the fanners are alarmed
over the subject. It will be well for
our farmer friends to take special
h > d and make thorough test of their
> ed >rn and see that only the very
!• st and that which will he sure to
grow l>e planted. Get busy now.
Kx.Gov. Geo. Sheldon gives it out
that he is a receptive candidate for
I'. S. senator: that is, lie will not
take the initiative, but is in the
hands of his friends, so to speak.
Georgie speaks very bitterly of being
turned down for governor after hold
ing down the executive chair one
term, and con't propose to take the
"initiative” in another chance to get
it in tlie neck. The Northwestern is
of the opinion that there are a whole
lot of better men for office in this
state and unnecessary to bring this
overrated young fellow out of his en
forced retirement.
The Chicago Tribune lately sent
ut letters to the publishers of news
papers west of the Alleghany moun
tains. asking them if they were for
( annon for speaker, and if they ap
proved of the tariff bill. A poll was
also taken on the preference for
president. Of the 3,199 republican
editors who replied to the Cannon
question, iW were for Cannon, and
2,653 against Cannon. Of the Ne
braska republican editors, 14 were for
Cannon and 190 against. Of the 3,498
voting on the tariff bill, 812 approved
or it and 2,(186 disapproved. Among
the Nebraska editors. 25 were for the
tariff bill and 175 against. There
were 3,037 republican editors who
voted on the choice for president. Of
these 1,360 were for Roosevelt, 1,093
for Taft, 197 for I.aFollette. 122 for
Hughes, 05 for Cummins, 30 for Pin
chot, 14 for Cannon, 40 for Bryan, and
116 scattering. The question they
answered in making this vote was,
“If you could vote for president to
day, for whom would you cast your
bailot?” Of the 165 republican
editors who voted preference for
president, 52 were for Taft and 87 for
Roosevelt. There were twenty-six
states canvassed. The vote in each
shows a uniformity of sentiment
One can almost count up the post
master editors voting in each of the
states, on the tariff bill and on Can
nonisrn. In Ohio 35 republican
editors voted for Cannon and 251
against: S3 endorsed the tariff bill
and 238 opposed. In a more radical
state, Minnesota for instance, the
vote was 15 for Cannon and 228
against: 26 for the tariff bill and 229
against. In Nevada 3 editors are
standpatters and 4 are insurgents on
both questions. The publication of
this vote ought to settle a number of
things in Nebraska. One of impor
tance is that the republican editors
of the state are not for Cannon, and
they are not for the tariff bill. In a
secret ballot, such as this was, 25
Nebraska editors are for the tariff
bill and 175 are opposed.
The democratic party is all broken
up over the manifesto issued by
William Jennings Bryan in favor of
county option. They had a meeting
mostly of pie-eaters at Lincoln last
week, in which Gov. Shallenberger's
chosen satellites were in the majority.
Hairless Jim Dahl man of Omaha was
there with his boom, which received
a body blow and is supposed to now
be in a decomposing state. The hair
less was mad when it was given out
that his own peerless Bryan had
come out hot for county option and
said Bryan’s action had placed him
self and Sliallenberger in the same
political bed, and with a grimace
seemed to feel that Shalle had ap-,
propriated most of the "kivers.” but
insisted he was in the melee for
governor to stay. The meeting was
a distinct frost for Boss Dennison's
hairless find, and the nervy little
"whiskey-above-every-other-consider
ation'' mayor of Omaha was placed
squarely on the toboggan-slide into
obscurity. Poor Dahlman. But then
he will help take the democratic
party of Nebraska with him. It is
stated plan> are being formulated for
a big county option convention to be
held at Lincoln later, along non
partisan lines and that Bryan, when
he comes home from flirting with
the senoritas of South America, will
come out in that convention squarely
for county option. But can the
"Peerless” take the majority of the
democratic party with him into the
county option campy Fickle Aunty ;
Democracy, what will she do'.'
Our democratic friends are gro
tesquely funny in their acrobatic feats
in this state, but, then, they are al
ways “amoozing.” The last legisla
ture, which was democratic, you
know, made a number of new laws,
and closed with a great blaze of trum
pets over their great work. However
the supreme court with pleasing
unanimity tucked one after another
of these democratic infants away into
everlasting sleep, until all were put
away save and only “the 8 o'clock
closing law,’’ and now even that one
righteous measure is found credit
ed to the republicans, and leaves not
one peg for Aunty Democracy to
hang her legal skirts upon. She is,
however, still clinging to it as her
only salvation, in >pite of the record
otherwise, which we give as follows:
house:
Democrats voting yes.30
Democrats voting no.36
Absent. 5
Republicans voting yes.21
Republicans voting no. 2
Absent. 6
senate;
Democrats voting yes.7
Democrats voting no.12
Absent. 1
Republicans voting yes.12
Republicans voting no. 1
Absent. o
. summary:
Democrats voting yes.37
Democrats voting no.48
Absent.6
Republicans voting yes.33
Republicans voting no..3
Absent. t
And this is the manner in which
the democrats didn't pass the eight
o’clock closing law. Will Brer. Beus
hausen and his demo-pop Times please
sing a requiem and provide an appro
priate epitaph for his poor, old, dis
mantled, unmourned, late demented
democratic legislature?
It seems that Mrs. Harvey Lillie,
the David City woman, who was sent
to the pen for alleged killing of her
husbana in that city a few years ago,
and later pardoned by Gov. Mickey,
made more history in Pomona, Calif.,
lrtely, to which city she went after
her pardon. She was in the millinery
business at Pomona wfth a man
named Plants, who claimed she was
his wife, but which she denied.
Plants was accused of the larcency of
goods found in their place of busi
ness, lie was arrested, the store closed
through an attachment for money
loaned Mrs. Lillie to conduct the
business and the woman disappeared.
Such is the history of the affair as
given in the Pomona Times, and will
be of interest, in remembrance of the
Lillie woman's unenviable reputation
the details of which at the time
shocked Nebraska with her alleged
terrible crime.
The newspaper man notices, if
others do not, that whenever a man
gets into trouble with a neighbor, or
neighbors, which he does not want to
get into print, he shies his castor
into the door of the newspaper office
with the pleading request that noth
ing be said about it in the paper.
And another thing in this connection
is that when the same man is asked
to subscribe for said paper he always!
has more papers than he can read, or
any other inane excuse that happens |
to lodge in the roof of his mouth. >
We do not refer to either of these j
tilings other than to call up such
facts as pleasant episodes in the!
newspaper man's daily routine. It
was not so very many moons since,
that a man called the editor to one
side and requested that his little
physical argument with a fellow be
not printed in this best paper in
Sherman county, while he was not a
reader or even a friend of the paper.
Later a man capie to the w riter and
asked that a neighborhood brawl be
kept out of our columns as he did not ,
wish the publicity the news would j
give him, and yet this same man is I
known to have used his influence to j
get readers to change from this paper
to another, with which he felt more
kindly disposed. Later yet. a man
who is not a reader, nor could be in-,
duced to be a reader, came to the
office earnestly requesting the suppres-!
sion of news of trouble between he
and his neighbors, giving no reason
why this should be done, except as a 1
personal favor to himself. It is not
necessary for parties to come to us
for the suppression of scandalous
happenings, those which reflect upon |
the good name of our town and coun
ty, as the Northwestern does not
believe ingiving wide publicity tosuch
nrtters. not as a favor to such as get1
mixed up in them, but with a desire ‘
to give to the public only such mat
ters as are of general interest and
conduce to the good name of ourj
county and town at home and abroad.
Our readers as a class are asvare of
our course in these things, for the
reason they never, or very seldom, at
least, get into such mixups. Moral:
Subscribe for the Northwestern, as
an antidote for all such ills.
An interesting- study in types of
j American citizenship was presented
Lst week by two young Nebraska
men who were in the national capital
on leave from different eastern col
leges. Both young men were comely,
well groomed, polished in appear
ance and seemed fairly representative
of the cultured American college man. j
Each has won laurels in his studies, j
(hie has a rare tenor voice, is a mem
ber of the Harvard glee club and a
singer in one of the Hub's exclusive
churches. The other is the winner
of many athletic victories, has done
100 yards in ten seconds, Hat, has
played football for four years, and is
a star on his college track team.
Both men met at the committee room
of one of the Nebraska men in con
gress, on whom tbey came to call.
. One of these dark haired youths can
trace his ancestry to good old Puri
tan stock. The other's forbears may
have met the Puritans when they
came to these shores, for he was from
the Carlisle Indian school. The
point is, you could not tell w hich was
the Indian.
Wilson, the man who some time
since was arrested for the murder of
Davis, a pool hall man at Ainsworth,
was Tuesday of this week found
guilty of the crime, the jury bring
ing in a verdict of murder in the
| first degree and imposing the death
penalty. Davis was murdered near
his home between eleven o’clock and
midnight on the nignt of December
27th. just after closing his place of
business. Wilson, convicted of the
j murder, was a hanger about town,
; posing as a detective, and when ar
rested had some ?22o on his person,
the amount Davis was known to have
had with him, and blood stains cover
ed the bills when found. Wilson
coolly denied knowledge of the crime
and his conviction is purely on cir
cumstantial evidence, but so strong
there seems not a shadow of doubt
as to his guilt.

History of Phil Jaeger
The following item in regard to
J. Phil Jaeger, taken from the RiTer
side (Calif.) Morning Mission, has
been handed us:
“J. Phil Jaeger, a resident of River
side for the past four years, died of
paralysis at Loma Linda sanitarium,
Jan. 28, 1910. Mr. Jaeger was born
in Burlington. Iowa. April 17. 1850.
In 1874 he married Catherine Guenther
of the same city. At this time he
was employed as chief accountant in
the firm of Starker & Hageman,
wholesale grocers, with whom he re
mained until 1882. when he took up
his residence in Loup City, Nebraska.
Here he engaged in banking and mer
chandising. For many years he served
as mayor of his city and took an
active part in educational and civic
affairs. He was a member of the
Masonic, A. O. F. \V. and M. W. A.
orders. In 1903 Mr. Jaeger moved to
Des Moines. Iowa, to serve as busi
ness manager for the Jaeger Manu
facturing company. In 1906 he was
stricken with paralysis and moved
to California, hoping to recover. In
October he was taken to Loma Linda
sanitarium for treatment. A short
service was held at the residence on
1462 West Sixth street, after which
the body was taken to the Seventh
Day Adventist church, of which he
was a member. Elder E. J. Hibbard,
professor of history and theology at
San Fernando academy, gave the ad
dress. "Lead. Kindly Light” and
“I Need Thee Every Hour,” Mr.
Jaeger’s favorite hymns, were sung.
The interment was at Evergreen
cemetery. He lias to mourn his loss
a wife and five children. Misses Lottie
and Lillie, instructors of music, Miss
Zetta, a nurse, Alvin P., engaged in
agriculture, and Edmund C., instruc
tor and lecturer on Scientific Temper

ers, all of whom are living in the
state of Iowa.
