" .A bank in Chicago failed and cl ) sed its doors Monday , having been looted by the president aud cashier to the tune of a milIton dollars -lost in speculation. Both of these officers fled before the truth wjl known and they are being diTIgently sought. The bank had 22,000 depositors , most of the laboring people , and the amount of 'tbeir deposits amounted - " ed to over four million dollars. Hi . Upon learning of the failure one Jj d positor dropped dead and another - j other committed suicide , while i several are insane as a result. j ' . ' Agreat hue ancI cry has been . m . raised. because of the sei.ure of 1 some pample.ts by Anthony Com- ! ' stock , issued by the art s cie y , J I 'ofNew York , but the pubhc will / gen rnlly commend his action. : tI He says : "Wild animals are safe , ' . enough when properly caged , b t turn them loose and they must be suppressed. 'l'he same with these nude pictures ; they must be kept where they belong' . " This seems like good reasoning and certainly ' will help public morals. On one steamship salling for E rope , one day last week , there were some ' forty young women who h'nd won out in populanty d be uty contests inaugurated by newspapers , and thus had secured .free . trips and expenses across the pond. They were a j lly p dy and will probably r , nrn with' some new ideas of th lands over the seas-even if they do not have a very clear impression of their own , country. : 'The Minnesota state insane a ylul 1 at St. Peter has been k eping a herd of about fifty cows , and about one-half of them b ve been found affiicted .with tuberculosis and ordered killed. IHs bad enough to give the milk II from such cattle to the health v :1 : a d those of 30und minds , but t II palm. such product off on the unfortunate comes near being a , crime. The "Galusha ' Sunday.Edltion'l of a large number of the newspapers - papers of Nebraska is equal to a dime museum , from a ludicrous stand point , while from a legal observatory it looks like non est- ninnycompoop. If you den't belteve that there are some improvements going ou 1D an around Broken .Bow-just try to hire a carpenter , a brick- : laler or a plasterer. l , . , 1 , ' I \ ' / \ I" . - "ff' . - AT. - - . . . . .

Papers throughout the state 'are making a vigorous protest against weeds in the streets alul "holtering" for the powers t ha t be to elestroy them. Difflreu t I here. Not a weed-nor a son 0 f weed-can be seen in the streets of Broken Bow , thanks to the vigilance of our city papas. Some of the Chicago courts have come. to a common-sense plat-form and announce that there wilt be no suppression of papers in divorce cases hereafter. 'rhis will do as much to stop scandal in connection with divorce actions as anything which could be done. 'rhe investigation of the condition in the packiug houses in this country has started other countries to look up matt rs at : home. England acknowledges conditions there are not as they should be and it also develops that in France they are even worse than they have been in this country. As soon as Mr. Bryan returns and the big reception he has : plauned is over he will begin delivering : - I livering lectures throughout this country at $300 per and in some places more. 'l'his will help amazingly in paying- for cablegrams - grams necessary in planning the reception. One of the gratifying changes in Nebraska is the rapid increase in savings deposits. This is the right kind of education , and will assist in making the state even more independen t than it has been in the past. Steps are being taken to.i abolish the gullotine in France. ' 'rhis sister republic is making some wonderful progress along many lines , and it will pay to keep careful watch of her. These cool nights betokeneth that ere many moons Nebraska wi11 be in the sear and yellow i leaf ; the ice man relegated and the coal dealer , cit" . Not long now nntil the exci te ment will be football , with baseball - ball and teunis banished to the back ground. It is reported that political campaign funds come slow-an eiIect of some of the recent in- vestigations. Republican State Convention.

Folk , in addressing the retail merchants of Missouri at their convention in Jefferson City the oth'er day , spoke against the mail order business and favored advertising in the town papers. He said , in part : "We are proud of our splendid cities , and we want them to increase iu wealth and population , and we also want our country towns to grow. We wish the city merchants to build up , but we also desire the country merchant - chant to prosper. I do not believe in the mail order citizen. If a place is good enough for a man to live in and to make his money in. it is good enough for him to spend his money. "No merchant can succeed wit wut advertising in one way or nother. Patronize your town papers , build them up , and they will build the town up and build you up increased trade and greater opportunities. Do not be afraid that business is going to be hurt by the reent exposures of wrong doing in the commercial - mercial world. No man who is doing an honest business can be injured by the light. All business - ness will be better for the cleaus- ing process it is going through and for the stamping out of evil. " . Thank. . Gentlemen. ' South Omaha , Aug. 7 , 1906. EDITOR RItPUDLICAN : Broken Bow , Nebr. , DltAR SIlt : The South Omaha Live Stock Exchange wishes to thank the people of your good city for the magnificent reception tendered us upon the occasIon of our visit to your city in company with the Omaha Commercial CI b.

Hoping also , that the social and trade relations existing bet - t ween us will al ays be as pleasant - ant and beneficIal mutually as they arc now , we are Yours very truly , A. F.

Aller. instructor of music in the schools at Franklin , Nebraska , a home talent concert was given Tuesday night at the Opera house which was crowded , and as evidence that it was appreciated by the large audience we nced but state that every number received an encore. In conversation with Prof. Aller he informed the REPUDL1- CAN that he does not know of any town in the Union of 2500 population - tion that contains so much first- c1a5S musical talent as Broken Bow. lIe also stated that he believed - lieved there was a bright and progperous future for this city as the class of peop1e who reside here are calculated to build up a town , their hospitality and pro- ressive spirit being very much 111 e\'id nce to visitors to the city. , Plan to Idendify Soldlera. 'Vith the introduction into the army of the finger-print inden- tification system , Uncle Sam will have unique method of identifying - ing his fighting men , which the War Department asserts is more reliable and practical than auy now in existence. The French system of Bertillioll , based upon a series of all possible measurements - ments , has been tried in the past , - . . - - - - . : ; " ; - - . . . J : " . . " . . . . = but with not great success , and the War Department is now substituting - stituting the method made pupular by Mark 'l'wain in "Pudclin Head Wilson. " Briefly , the system consists of htlving every en1isted man place a print of bis right thumb and first finger on a spec aJly prepared , gelatine-covered slide , on the back of which IS pasted a slip giv111g the name , next of kin , height and similar information , the slides to be filed at the War Department. 'Vhile the new process is to be put into general effect it seems probable. however , that it will be tried only on the "rookies. " as the recruits are called , for a protest loud and long bas risen from the men a1ready enlisted against being forced to have anything to do with a 1i We dinky piece of glass , as though each were a probable deserter. 'l'hat the system will I be of g-reat value there is no I doubt. Nominally , it is being , introduced in order to do away with the "unknown" soldiers' graves in the future. In the case of a corpse which cannot be otherwise identified , it will be only necessary to take a prir.t of the fingers before burial , to be compared with the original at the War Department. As a matter of fact , however , the new system will protect the government - ment from frauds in pension cases , siuce no one enlisting under an assumed name can afterward - ward cl aim a penson in his own name and hope to escape ddec- tion. Deserters , too , will find it harder than ever to'escaee the long arm of U nele Sam , S111ce in the future fin er-prints plates will be supplied to all recruiting , officers. To the Public.
