- Tho editor of the Dixon Tribuno slr.os
up tho political situation from a pure
democratic standpoint as follows. "In
general politics wo aro a democrat and
know no reason why wo should be any.
thing else. Uy the term democrat wu
menu n genuine democrat; not u mixed
mess of anything and everything
tin own together to win. We will no
longer train with Mich it gang. When
the diMiiiHtrats gi't together (Impi'lc..,.,
hh it looks under present condition.)
and go back to old priuclrles, dropping
populism, socialism and till other wild
schemes, thu Tribune will be found
supporting thu ticket faithfully and
conscientiously us it always has dono
in the past. Hut if fusion is again
agreed on, in national, state or county
politics, wu are out of it. Fusion lias
bueii found a blight on overv party
trying it and in Dixon county it lias
dry-iotted both the populists and dem
ocrats until now comliined they are in
the minority. The time has come when
a mil thing, IiiiiViU'hi' iuir.i'UiVn sliunld
bo dropped and wu hope lo seo tho
democrats of this county either io

ALMOST FORGOTTEN.
Incidents ol Every Day Life Which Very
Few People Stop to Think About on
Accouut of Their Littleness.
The poet who wanted to write on
"snow, beautiful snow" Suuday did
not lack for plonty of the pure article
to got his idoas started. The man whu
forgot to bring in tho coal and kindling
on Saturday night didn't fetl liko writ
ing poetry. Talking of snow jou will
now hoar tho crop prognosticator crank
say that tho crop is assured uud give
you dites to show for it. In giving his
dates ho will leavo out tho years when
wo hao plenty of snow followed by
plonty of drouth. It does ono good to
seo somo peoplo plodding through tho
snow drifts. It is tho hardest work
thoy over did in their life nnd it is ono
thing thoy cnu't always nnvo some
otherbody do for tliem. The next fool
custom to bo observed will bo St. Val
ontiuo's day. Tho day of itself is not
so bad nor is tho idea of tho sentimen
tal lovor who sonds a pretty Valentino
to his best girl. It is tho comic and in
sulting pieco of paper with its offensive
caricature that makes tho custom odi
ous. 1'ho persons, in some cases, who
havo enemies wait in gleeful anticipa
tion for tho day, that they may bo able
to got oven by sending them ono of
these pictorial nightmares. Mon who
seo evil in everything olso that thoy
think is bad still sell these vonom-ladeu
sheets of paper. Hero is another ru
form for Mrs. Carrio Nation and hor
littlo hatchet, or sho might uso with
better effect a basket and a tire.-Wo
aro glad to note that tho day is becom
ing less and loss observed by tho do
cent element of society. Our lilue
Hill correspondent pays, "Tho way to
try a man's friendship is to rak him for
a loan of two and a half when you
really need it," This may be truo and
tho loan of tho two and a half is a good
way to find out the friendship of tho
other follow along with his honesty.
But you don't want to come to Red
Cloud to try the experiment unless you
want to pay dearly for it. If you want
a fellow to cut your acquaintance and
treat his friends on your money, lend
him two nnd a half The bigger tho
loan the. bigger the cut. Frank Cow
den's turkey chaso wasn't in it with the
one whim oectiivd last week. Thin
wii.su pig chase and thu participants
were piggy, Maurice Weist and Cir.uit
Turner. Tho chase was a no as-Miti
plea.su witli cigars bet as to who was
thu best man the pig, Turner or Weist.
After going some fourteen miles tho
pig proved itself to bo tho best man
and as it hasti't been seen since, thu
other two aro in a wrangle us to who
should got tho cigars. Turner says
that Weist did nut have thowind and
Weist says that Turner couldn't run
fast enough, The pig came to tho con
clusion that neither one of them was
any good. Ask Elmor Ross for tho
story. Ho didn't lmvo any buttons left

Catarrh has become such a common
disease that n person entirely fiee from
this disgusting complaint is seldom met
with. It is customary to speak of Catarrh
m nothing more serious than a bad cold,
a simple inflammation of the nose and
throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and
very dangerous disease ; If not at first, it
very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison through
the general circulation is carried to all
parts of the system.
Salves, washes and sprays are unsati.
factory nnd disappointing, because they do
not reach the sent of the trouble. S. S. S.
does. It cleanses the blood of the poison
and eliminates from the system nil catar
rhal secretions, nnd thus cures thoroughly
and permanently the worst cases.
