A vivid illustration on canvas will do moru to eliminate the lly than nil the lectures delivorod by scientists. As a spreader of disease tho lly has all other agencies distanced a country block. It has boon estimated that should tho ily bo done uway with tho average Hfo would bo prolonged ton years. Wo want to live that much longer and have enlisted us a volunteer in the growing urmy of lly destroyers. A fow yours B() tho city employed a surveyor to establish regular grades for streets mill sidewalks which lias resulted in much bcnetlt to the city. Why not take another step and adopt u permanent policy for grading streets? Information is to be had fot iho asking from tho government and a little time given to our particular needs is about all that is necessary for installing a permanent policy. One plan of grading stioota carried out for a period of ton years would make a vast imprivcmeiit in the ttp- ncaianco of this city. Tho trouble! now is that no one knovv.s when lie will be called upon to 1111 a city olllco and by thu time ho learns a few things he is succeeded by somu ono else and so it goes. No ono policy is followed long enough to bo of lasting bonelit. This is poor business and ought to bo remedied. Street grading is a trade and such work ought to be performed under the diiectiou and rules of that trndo. lly all menus let us start the new year right by establishing permanent policy for tiiu mniutanco of our streetw and alleys.

This is tho county seat nud residents in thu north part of the county aro entitled to a quick and con venient method or reaching this city, hed Cloud is more concerned in tho wolfnro or Webster County than in I'Vanklin or Hastings. Merchants here feel that a morning train from Orleans might bring more trade owing to the fact, that this is tho largest place between McL'ook and Hastings but home interests are first and Webster County must receive Hist consider ation. If the train leaves Hastings in tho morning ami loturns in the evening all of tho residents from Cowlos to Campbell could transact their business here and return thu sumo day.

LINCOLN LETTER Lincoln. Nkiiii., March 1- (Special Correspondence.) The Democratic .students at tho University of Nobraska hnvo taken preliminary steps looking towards tho organization of a demo cratic olub, and the first meeting to discuss tho matter was an eye-opener becnuso of tho numbers present and tho onthusiasm displayed. The club will bo organized and perfected bofore the close of the University year, and will be in fiuo shape to perform activo service in Cbo interests of democracy durlug the coming campaign. The republican bureau for the (lis 8emlultion f misinformation with headquarters at Lincoln, continues actively ut work. One of its chief ob jects is to misinform tho public ns to tho actions of the governor. It is constantly trying to convinco tho public that the govoruor is neglecting tho stato's business in order to travel around. 1 1 is true that Governor Shall enberger is absent from tho otllcemore than was ids immediate predecessor, but (lovernor Shallenherger is attend ing to vnstly more business than iny of liis predecessor. Ueing it business man lie is able to transact business more speedily than any of his prede cessors, and his tinvnly Imvn linnn forced upon him by tho wonderful growth of the state. He has lectured on the university extension course,tid dressed farmers' institutes and ap peared before gatherings of business men hold for the purpose of consider ing how best to conserve and promote tho wolfnre of tho state. While Gov ornor Shollenbergor has traveled moro than any other governor Nebraska has over hod, ho is also better informed ns to thu state's needs and is hotter nolo to judgu ns to what should or should not be done to ndvnnco tho stato's best Interests i Republicans in the First Congress- 1 ional district arc in n sad muddle. Thoro arc a dozen aspirants for tho nomination, and all aro in a lighting mood. Will Hnyward, K. II. Pollard, Judgo Frost, Judgo Field and F. M. Tyroll are leading candidates. So far thoro 1ms been no opposition dovelopod towards the re-nomination of John A' Moguire by the democrats. In tho Sccoud everybody seems to bo waiting to see what Congressman Hitchcock will do. Horry Fleharty says -be will" bo a candidate if Hitchcock decides to I be a candidate for senator. Tho repuu J licans are waiting on the Ilitclioock decision, well knowing it would lo1 folly to try and beat Iho popular con gressman in case he decides to ioun n in tho lower house. In tho Thiid Edgnr Howard is likely to contest witli Congressman Latta for (denomination, and to date there has been little talk of republican candidates. In thu Sloan of Geneva will probably be the republican candidate, in pursuance of nu agreement made with lliushaw two yearn ago. S. L. Mains, food commiss ioner, and Judge Stark, former con gressman, aro mentioned undemocratic candidates. Fred Ashton of (.hand Island and R. I). Sutherland of Nelson, will probably llio f.ir tho democratic nomination in the Filth and will con test with Judge Xorrls pioviding Norrls does not doeido to got into tho s. nalorial fight. In llio "Rig SI.nMi" Uncle Moso Kinluiiil has his work out out for him. Tho lovolation of Unol Moso's connection with tho Alaska laud gratis lias miiilo Undo Moso squirm, nud tho way ho is trying to ex plain crouton a lot of laughter. Sliinn way of SooUsI'liiil' and Taylor of Cus ter have announced themselves us oandidiites for tho democratic nomi nation, and cither of them would pmb ably retire Uncle Moso to private life. Tithe as a whole Iho outlook for an in creased democratic representation in rongres is far blighter than usual. I'rol'e-sor ( rabtroo lias not yet re signed, as demanded by the eminent republican politicians who lesent tho idea that a state institution should not bo run as an annex to the g. o. p. Eminent legal authority declares that the governor has a right to oust an ap pointive odlecr at any time, but Gover nor SliallenberKet' has not yet taken this phase of the matter into consider ation. In thu meanwhile the repub lican partisans who played such a coarso political game in the Peru Nor mal School case are being roundly cursed by their own party associates. Tho Rtireau of Labor and Industrial Statistics is busy these days supplying tho domauds for farm help. During the last six weeks not less than 'Joo farmers have been supplied with help, and something like 300 men have se emed jobs through tho bureau. So far, however, tho demands for help have exceeded the supply. "Test your seed corn!" is tho cry to day. It. has been demonstrated that less then !t() per cent, of thu corn raised hifct year is lit for sued. The early opening of winter caused a lot of tho corn to icmaiu in the fields and a lot of it yet remains tinliusked. This com is not showing up well in tho seed tests and it behooves farmers to bo very careful in selecting their seed corn tills spring. James Samuel Dcakln .lames Samuel Dcakiu was born in Shrewsbury. England on July 7th, 1875, and passed away on Friday even ing, February S5tht 1910. His early education was received in one of tho Shrewsbury public schools. Ho very early evinced artistic ability and won several prizes at tho School of Art and Science in his native city. In 18S9 ho came with the family to this country and in 1893-4 ho took a course in pen -art work under Prof. Wallace at tho Western Normal Lin coln, Nebr. Since that time he has held responsible positions as draughts man with the Molinc Plow Co., and the Kacine-Sattley Co., Spririgilold, 111. For sometime previous to his final illness lie had been draughtsman and designer in the public Park's depart ment Kansas City, Mo. On June 20th, 1003 he was united in marriage with Miss Alta Tysor, In Holyoke, Mass. The happy pair were blessed with two boys James Samuel jr., and Fred William who, with their devoted moth er survive to mourn tlioir loss. James and his wife united with thu First Congregational church in Spring Held, 111., in l'M, and on moving to Kansas City in 1007 placed their letters in the Prospect a vonuc Congregational church, where tlic-y have since remain ed. Here lie becanio an active worker and had a class in the Sunday School. l'arly in October last, James hud an nttuck of la grippe from the cil'outs of which lie never fully recovered. After taking medical treatment In Kansas City, ho finally decided to try Cowlcs for a time, in tho hope that the change might prove beneficial. The result was not satisfactory. All that medical skill, and lovlpg care could do proved unavailing. Tliut such n promising life and such it loving union should be so early ended is u mystery wo canuot solve, but "wo know that all things worlc toguthcr for good to them that love Qod." The funeral services were held February 27th at 3 p. m., in tho Con gregational church at Cowlcs and worn in charge of tho Ilov. A. A. Crcssmnn pastor of the Congregational church of Hed Cloud, who proauhed a sermon of great comfort to the beroaved from tho toxt 1 John 2:2r. The funeral was largely attended and the iloral offerings wore beautiful, and gave unmistakable evidouco of tho esteem aud loving friendship in which tho deceased and his family is held.
