Tho object was to get tho plan before

wero interested in the matter a chance
to work it up. As yet we havo heard
of nothing being douo. Cau it lie pos
sible that wu wero tho victims of a

Just about tho time tho roiidents of

Tho democratic national executive
committee nt Chicago, with National
Cbalrmnu J. K. Jones in tho chair,
spentconsiderablo time discussing mat
ters pertaining to organization, ways
ami meaus and thu adlnistratlve a (Talis
of tho organization. Nothing was said
about a meeting of tho national com
mittee, but it is tho opinion of most of
the exnoutlvo committeemen that the
fall committee will bo called to meet iu
Washlngtoj, February 23, and that the
national democratic convention will be
hold tho latter part of May or the Mrst
pnrtof June. Sonator Jones would say
nothing about calling tho committee.
The committeemen wero extremely un
communicative as to what was dono nt
the meeting, After tho moetlug had
adjouruod, however, somo of tho com-
sjultteomen continued tho discussion tf
It was rumored at the state house
yesterday. Hint Governor I'oynter would
soon call a meetingottho state bnrbors'
board to amend the rules recently pro
mulgated by that board. This board
comprites Governor PoynUr, Attornoy
General Smyth nnd Auditor Cornell.
Tho board was created by a law intend
ed to protect barbers of the stato and
at tho snmo tlnio furnish n good salary
for thrco or four secretaries, tho money
with which to pay tho salaries to come
from tho pockoUi of tho barbers. Tho
Governor and his follow board mora
bors havo issued rules regulntlng tho
breath of barbers. These rules warn
bnrbors against tho loading down ol nn
innocent breath with onions or whisky,
but all this appears to bo for tho protec
tion of the customer. Somo of tho bar
bers want to potltlon tho board to regu
late the breath of customers. Some
very bad cases havo como to tho notico
of barbers lately, but just how to pro
tect tho barbers from the nulsanco
promises to bo a very porploxlng prob
lem for the thrco state officers having
control of this branch of stnto govern
ment. All throo areconvinccd that no
question is sottled until it is settled
right.
Ex-Stato Printer Ed. Snow of Kans.,
says that if tho populist party lasts
much longer it will bo tho fault of tbo
republicans themselves. "If tho re
publican newspapers and orators will
quit abusing tho "pops," said he, "tho
pop party would bo dead in two years.
Tho rank and filo of tho party soo no
f uturo for it nnd ore anxious to got back
into tho two old parties again In Kan
sas tho'populists drow mostly (root tho
republicans. That element would go
back to tho republican party without
a question. Nut only that but many of
the old-timo democrats who wont off
with tho popsaro in f:tvor of expansion
and they. too. would co with tho Re
publicans. But it scorns that somo of
tho republican newspapers nnd orators
don't want them. Thoy keep nbusing
tbo pops like plckpockots. If thoy
would chnngo their tactics nnd extend
an invitation to tho Pops to como over,
they would prollt immensely thereby.
An American citizen, especially of tho
Kansas brand, cau bo ploadcd with, but
not drhen into doing things. Tho re-
publicans should tako this cue and act
accordingly.
Tho work of reformation in tho city
of Red Cloud has commenced. One of
our citizons mauo n snort specen ni
one of our churches Inst Sunday night
which resulted in tho calling of a moot
ing at tbo olllco of J. M. Chaflin on
Monday for tho purposo of organizing
an nuti-snloon nnd nntl-gumbling,
league. Tho mooting was held as
called and n committee of livo was
chosen to proparo a constitution nnd
by-laws, consisting of Hovs. Doan,
Harncs, Hussong and Edson, and J. M.
Chaflin as a member from tbo citizons.
Tho objoct of tho organization as stat
ed in short talks by thoso presont was
to abate saloons, gambling houses, slot
machines, aud other things which to
tho organization are obnoxious from n
moral standpoint. Whilo tho Ioaguo
oxpecta to suppiess gambling iu tho
city, thoy do not expect to do much
with tbo saloons which aro nt present
licensed in our eity, but their hopes
are that by tho beginning of tho next
municipal year they will bo orgauizod
strong enough to prevent the issuing
of Hconso to a saloon in the city. A
committee to investigate nnd secure
evidence against saloons, gambliug
houses, etc , wns nlso appointed, but

In somo places peddlers will stop, and
if they find n woman alone, they will
compel her to trade with them, if she
has nny monoy. Now if pooplo would
all rcfuso to trado with them or keep
them, wo should soon bo rid of them.
For my part I have- decided to do no
mora trading with peddlers; nnd if
others wish to patronize them let them
bo the ones to entertain them, ns they
can not frighten mo into doing cither.
But really ns there is a largo number of

Kcd Cloud Is, in our opinion, tho
host town in southern Nebraska, and
the prospects ahead of it for the next
year or two aro certainly encouraging
ifourpeoplo will only work together
for tho upbuilding of this city. Hut
this can only bo done by united nnd
harmonious notion, thcrcforo we nto
opposed to tho stirring up of n faction
al fight at this tlnio. During tbo past
few years Ked Cloud has prospered
and the stigma of former times has
boon almost completely orascd, and
Ked Cleud'u prospects aro at present
brighter than nt nny time in tho city's
history. Ono backwnrd stop now or
one move to causo dissension and strife
among our citizons, when entlro unity
of notion is neccssaty, might serve to
set our city back for a period of livo or
ten years. Nothing hurts a city worse
than strifo among its citizens. A city
the sizo of Ked Cloud can very soon
get a reputation for working together
for anything thnt will assist in tho up
buildiug of tho city, or they can very
soon got a reputation of being com
posed of twoclotnonts, ono of which is
always opposed to anything tho other
proposes. Now, which ouo of theso
reputations docs this city want? Wo
prefer tho former. We bolievu that
the law bhould bo obeyed, but wo do
not bolievoa factional fight will enforce
a law or better n community, or at
least it never has this ono. It nnyouo
knows of tho existouco of nn illegal or
unlawful business being carried on it
is his duty as u law abiding citizou
to enter complaiut and havo tho city
authorities stop it, nnd wo nro willing
to venture tho assertion tliat it will bo
stopped iu n hurry under tho present
administration, but u man who knows
or imagines ho knows of existing un
lawful business and uses such knowl
edge or supposed knowledge for the
solo purposo of creating dissatisfaction
and strifo iu u poaceablo community
is dosorviug of only tho condemnation
of every citizen nnd should bo sat
down on by everyone who has tbo best
interests of tho city nt henrt. Law
nnd order nro bouud to be respected,
but dissatisfaction and strifo caused
by n factijunl tight, know no law
and order, aud havo only for their
law "might makes right." Look be

RAW AS BEEF
M ECZEMA!
No Torture Equal to the
Itching and Burning of
This Fearful Disease.
Not much attention is ofton paid to the
first symptoms of Eczema, but it ta not long
boforo the littlo redness begins to Itch and
burn. This is but tho beginning, and will
lead to suffering and torture almost unen
durable It Is n common mistake to. regard
roughness and redness of the skin, as
merely a local irritation ; it is but an indica
tion of a humor in tho blood of terrible
Eczema 'Which is more than skin-deep, and can not bo reached by local appli
cations of ointments, salves, etc., applied to the surface. The disease itself,
tho real causo of the troublo, is in the blood, although all suffering Is produced
through the skin ; the only way to reach tho disease, therefore, is through
me uioou.
Mr. Phil T. Jones, of Mlrersville, Ind., writes:
"I had Ecsoma thirty years, and after a great deal
of treatment my leg was so rnw and sore that it gave me
eonstant pain. It finally broko into a running sore, and
began to spread nnd grow worso. For tho past flvo or
six years I have suffered untold agony nnd had given up
all hope of ever boing free from tho disease, ns I havo
been treated by somo of the best physicians nnd have
taken many blood medloines, all in vain. With littlo
faith left I began to tako S. S. 8., and it apparently
made the Eczema worse, but I know that this was tho
way tho remedy got rid of the poison. Continuing
S. S. 8., tho sore healed up entirely, the skin became
olear and smooth, and I was cured perfectly."
Eczema is an obstinate disease and can not bo cured by a remedy which U
only a tonic. Swift's Specific
S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD
Is superior to other blood remedies becauso it cures diseases whleh they on
not reach. It goes to the bottom to tho cause of the disease and will oar
the worst case of Eeiema, no matter what other treatment has failed. It is
the only blood remedy guaranteed to bo free from potash, mereary or any
other mineral, and never fails to ouro Eecema, Scrofula, Contagious Blood
Poison, Cancer, Tetter, Rheumatism, Open Sores, Ulcers, Boils, ete. Insist
upon 8. 8. 8. ; nothing can tako its placo.

Thoy are but littlo iu advanco of tho

they expect you to keep thorn, and per
