Hoffman The Argus recognizes Theodore Roosevelt as the chosen candidate of the voters of the republican party In Nebraska and all the republican states As sueh we shall support him earnest ly. Arus. We were under the impression that Teddy had renounced all afHlatlon with the republican party and that he is going it alone but It seems that we have been mistaken sinoe our esteem ed contemporary has declared that he is the sure enough nominee of the grand old party. All gosslpers and tattlers are bad enough, but deliver us from a woman who tattles, one who from envy and jealousy will attempt to blight the fair name of the woman who has been her companion by making a house to 'house canvass, telling a tale here and one there, me thinks I can see the demon now, as she enters the home of the one she desires to Injure by unfold ing her story, she commences thus, "Oh, I have something to tell you," but you must not repeat It, it was just , told to me and must surely be true, it is about Mary Doe, or Jane Roe. Mother says it Is awful, and that I caunot go with tier any more. You can see the evil in this tattler now. She has made the rat thrust, 'stabbed her young friend in theback with the piece of false news, and thusshe makes her rounds from place to place,' doing all the harm she can. Reflect about this awful habit of talking too; much, and shun a tattler as you would a rattle snake. The meeting arranged by the (J. A. v R. of this city to listen to the lecture ' of Hon. R. D. Sutherland op Abraham Lincoln was quite well attended. There was not as large an audience of scholars from the public schools as there should have been when a sub ject of this nature Is represented by a speaker of Mr. Sutherland's reputation and ability. For the more advanced pupils, few exercises are more profit able than to listen to a speech on a subject with which they should have knowledge, by a man In whom they should have some interest, and then participate with their teacher in a criticism of the performance. Every pupil in the twelth grade should have sufficient familiarity with Linooln and his times, to judge in some measure as to the oharaeter of a lecture on this theme. Every pupil of that rank should have sufficient interest in a man who has served this district In Congress, and Is again a candidate for such service, to hear an address of the kind given Monday night with profit. Mr. Sutherland lacks but little of a really noble presence. He has a due voice, a pleasant manner, ease of elo cution and at times rises to genuine eloquence of utterance. Of course his address was essentially an euloglum of the martyred president, and there are few people now adays who would be disposed to detrace anything from even an exaggerated panegyric upon the man who for half a century has been classed with Washington. Lin ooln was a great, many-Bided character, and no lecturer can begin to exhibit him in all his variety and greatness in a single discourse. One should rather attempt, not complete portraiture, but a partial exposition. It would bo in teresting and profitable to give a re vlow of the debate between him Htid Douglas. Another interesting subject would be the conduct of the wm-. Another would be the conduct of the foroigu nffdlrs. His relutlons with bis cabinet and' congress would pro fitably occupy an hour. His attitude to the press of the country, his treat ment of prisoners, hlsmanner towards the border states, and towards the northern opposition, his views on re construction, and the policies he pur auod in that regard, are topics each of which could advantageously occupy an venlng, His career from boyhood to ataturlty, his from the log cabin To Fall Suits, Coats and Skirts with a genuine pepper sm aitness in every line and stitch. They are from the style creating factories that do things first and best. If you will take the time to give them a looking over, we have the time any time to show them. X Just as one turns to a thermometer to learn temperature, so one must turn to this store to learn correct styles in Women's Wear. We are the recognized barometer in this territory of what, is not only new but what is correctly new. When a style finds its way to our departments, that alone is a guarantee that the wearer of that style will be dressed in perfect harmony with the season's most approved fashion, and for this style satisfaction you pay less here than in any other store in this or other cities. CLOAKS The most popular fabrics this season are Chinchilla, Boucle', Zilelines and other hairy effects. In short, rough fabrics arethe stylish thing in coats. Grays, Tans ane Browns are the favorites. Buttons are used in large numbers, are large and to a great ex tent highly colored. SUITS - Suits have jackets 32 to 34 inches long. In materials, serges are still the most popular fabric, although there is a strong liking for hairy 'effects. ,Skirtt are being made a trifle wider than for Spring and appear much more graceful. SKIRTS Every woman feels the need of an extra skirt, for either dress or street wear, and you can get the kinds here that conform absolutely to the latest fashion, in both material and cut. They are made with the utmost care and you will find exactly what you want here, at the price you wish to pay.

A. R have a monthly service de voted to the exposition of this subjeot. The second meettug of the Men's Educational Association was held in high school room Thursday evening. The Association, which, by the wayi Ibhb yet, not formally organized or named, showed a great increase in in terest, and a number new members. After the roll call, which was quite generally answered with short talks on matters of current interest, cited for the most part from the latest periodicals, the chairman called on Mr. I. (X Walker for a song. Mr. Walker responded with a song, which he informed us was the favorite soug of his mother. He rendered it with unexpected dramatic and musical ability. Mr. Walker has au except ional voice, in comdass, volume and sweetness, and he gives evidence of thorough culture. If this new organi zation does nothing more than ac quaint the community with the extent and variety of local ability which has been suffered to exist in onr midst un known and unappreciated, it will do a groat work. The subject of the evening's discussion was then given hu hour, and of all present, there was not one who did not have something to say, and some of the,' suggestions were very timely and suggestive. The topic "was, "The changes that may be made in our Chautauquas to make them more advantageous to the community." Among the various suggestions were the following; First there should be no permanent platform manager, but a new manager should be appointed for each day, who should give bis ser vices for nothing. This would permit an additional one-hundred dollars to be appropriated for talent. There should be one day devoted to The dis cussion of subjects of a purely agri cultural nature. There should be one day devoted to home talent, musical, reading, ortorial, inqluding the school children. Prof. Morltz, with the help of Miss Coon, was asked to give this matter consideration, so that the school children of the entire county should have a day to look forward to In connection with the Chautauqua program. It was also suggested that, instead of so many musical companies one vocalist of high class, such as Excel, Eiohoru, BUlhorn, should be employ ed for the entire week, and, in ad dition to giving selections, should drill a chorus, aud give a new inspir ation to the music that is in ue all. It was thought that one hundred dol lars might secure the services of such a man, while that amouut of money is required to obtaisn one concert troup for one day's entertainment. It was also suggested that a critic should be appointed to follow eaoh lecturer with a ten minute criticism of the lecture. The trouble with the Chautauquas, as now conducted, is that the lecturers and entertainers have become the hirelings of the bureaus, which farm them out, just as base ball players are bought and sold. While tbesa bureaus confer some ad vantages w;ion the talent and the com munity, they are inpidly becoming a possible nuisance in their efforts to tuouopolize the sources of entertain merit. What is needed is an organization of h number of small chautauquas In to a chuutituquu district, which could then offer better tewiiB to lecturers and musicians then tbo bureaus could do, and thus have a larger choice In the selection of entertainers and in structors. In auy event, thu next Red Cloud Chautauqua will show a decree of independence of the bureaus. After an hour's earnest and Interest ed discussion of the matter, the meet ing selected as the topic for the next gathering the desirability of organiz ing a commerlcal club in the city, as a branch of- the association. The next meeting will be Thursday, the 26th at the High school room. All men es pecially graduates and undergradu ates of the public schools are cordially invited to attend and participate. Some -additional features, besides the roll call and discussion are promised. Remember the hour. 8 o'clock p. m. VVrYWWWUWWWWWWUlK H Why Not Support And Elect a Home Man? As Nuckolls county has a resident who is ft candidate for congress from this district, why not give him a rous ing majority in this county and thus help elect him. He is a good oitizen, and in every way qualified to fill the Important office lie has served two terms in this capacity and made a good record. R. D.
