Word ha* been received here by friend*. thatottis Miser, out at Spo kane, was united in wedlock the Uth of November to a Miss Skinner of tliat city. < >tiis is a fine young fel low and we send a wireless to Spokane wishing him much joy and happiness over his advent into the army of Ben edicts. Killy Sunday, the noted evangelist, is turning Wichita, Kansas, inside out from a religious standpoint, and his epigrams, as usual, are somewhat startling, unconventional, and by the way very wholesome from a truth, ful standpoint. Here is one: ‘ Lots of people are put in as officials of churches because they have several suits of clothes and a fat bank ac count, when they wauld look better in penitentiary suits.” liemocrata are getting into the game early. Last week, both John II. Moore head of Falls City and R. L Metcalfe, editor of Bryan's Com moner, announced their intention of becoming candidates for the demo cratic nomination for governor. Be sides these. Charley Pool of Tecumseh Senator OlHs of Ord and Senator Volp of Scribner are getting their running shoes on in the mad race for a nom ination. to HiS which one will have the lionor of being defeated by Gov. A k) rich. The Northwestern has received a pathetic appeal from Charley W. Pool of Tecumseh. who is a democrat can didate for governor, not to swat iiim too hard over his candidacy, and telling how many thousand or less years he lias been a printer and editor and worked for the salvation of the democratic party, and incidentally to furnish him with the wherewith to wage his unholy battle for Aunty and her ancient admirers. And this ap peal to a black-hearted republican newspaper opponet as well! Horrors! Let the members of the republican gridiron club see that he does not make a touch-down. He has earned defeat by his own confession. Teddy Roosevelt might as well sur render. There seems to be a deter mined effort to make him take his medicine in the shape of another term as president of Cncle Sam’s do main The demand is coming by Mtads, companies and battalions, and is bound to push him up the presiden tial San .1 uan hill. Teddy says he is not a candidate. So lie said when lie was made to swallow the vice presidential nomination a few years ago. But lie surrendered then, and there is a possibility that over whelming public sentiment may cause his surrender tills time. He was uever known to surrender to a foe, but was made to yeild to friends then and may have to do so again. This is neither "standpat” nor so-called "progressive” talk. The postoffice authorities at Wash ington request, for the bee tit of the public that especial attention be called to the foreign letters rates many foreign letters being posted with omy two cents in stamps at tached. Tiie only foreign countries to which the two cent letter rate ap plies are Canada, Cuba, Mexico, New Foundland, the Canal Zone, Panama, Germany (by direct steamers only) England. Scotland, Wales,and Ireland and the city of Shanghai, China. To all other countries including all other places than Shanghai in China, the rate is live cents for the first ounce or fraction thereof and three cents for each additional ounce or fraction which must be fully prepaid or the letters become liable on delivery to a charge equal tt double the amount of the deficient postage. For instance a single rate letter prepaid only two cents, being short-paid three cents, is subject to an additional charge of six cents.
