M. P. KINKAID. I - - ' - - . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - , Look out for False Circular. . 'l'he custom of the demo.pop press has been , in years past , to attempt to defeat the republican candidates , by publishing their papers and by cir ulars , after it is too late' to answer them through the medium of the preas. We have an intimation that such will be their tactics this year.I I As a matter of fact there is a strcnous effort being put fourth by the large ranch men in certain quarters to defeat Congressman. . Kinkaid. 'J hey first tried to. get a republican to be a candidate against him. Failing in that they put up Shumway on the demo-pop ticlCt. As yet they have not shown their hand in this county , but may , after they think it is too late for a reply . to be made. Another scheme is being premediated to defeat C. L. Gutterson for county attorney , by charging him with being in favor of saloons. i Wherever such charges are made resent them. They dare not be made in the open. Judge Gutterson has been a resident o ( Broken Bow the past twenty years and a more upright citizen has not lived anywhere. Further than that he will see to it that the laws of our state are strictly enforced. He will attend strictly to bUiiness. ! 'fhere will be trials no po tponed , after he has them set down for trial , bc- cause of the county attorney's absence , which has been the case in the past two years , if Judg'e Gutterson is elected county at- torney. Only last week , we are informed , two whiskey cases , one from Anselmo and the other from Sargent , had to go over , after. the defendants and.witness- es were here , because of the abseace of the county attorney. 'l'his was not the first 'case of the kind. Tl1en there is a strong effort being made to elect a democrat U. S. senator and it will be well to look out for false acquasations against Norris Brown or our legislati ve candidates' the eve of election. Be not decei ved. The republican - can candidates are worthy of support and if elected will prove true to the trust Imposed in them. For Good Road. as Well a. Good Government. Just at this time , more' than ever before , the question of good roads is in the minds of the business - ness mcn and farmer alike. There is no other one question which should receive the attention - tion of evcryone more than this. It is somthmg that every country , every neighborhood and every town should loook out for. 'Vm. Warren , the republican candidate for respresentative , is an advo. ator of good roads. He has hearlded the question broad c1st ; over this countryfor the past several years , giving papers and talks upon good roads before the farmers meet- ings. If elected , he will be in a position to do more than talk.i i He can act -and not enl . v can he , but he will act. If you. want a man to represent you in the legislature , who represenLs your personal interests as well as the country at large vote for Wm. Warren. ' ! 'he good roads question is his hobby , and he will ride it into the legislature for all that is in it. The rural mail carriers , the star mail carnes , the farmers , the stockmen nnd those who only go out for a ride over the country all realize what good roads would mean to this country , and all should vote alike for the man who would carry the question into our legislative halls. Warren is the man that will do it. -Callaway Queen. To Old Soldiers.

I Oue is told on Hobert Skinner , which , in the vernaculer of the boys , "isn't so worse. " The gerlt1eman in question is not only a fisherman , and knows how to fi h , but he goes to it on ever ) ' occ'lsion that prescnts itself and sticks to it with the patience of Job and the persistence of n porous plaster. One afternoon -a hot , sultry one-he was discovered - covered Qn the creek bank , intently watching a cotle which occasionally wobbl d by an undercurrent - current and fightIng bull gnats while the perspiration stood in betJ.ds and rolled from his face. Coming up to him one of the fellows asked ; "How long you here , Bob ? " bel "Since this mornin' . " - "What kind 0' lucJ ( llav- ing ? " ; y "Oh , not very good. " "Well how . many fish yer caught ? " I At this time the undercurrent whirled the cork around again and Bob answered : "Well , when 1 get this one that's been nibblin' for the last three hours and another one" I'll have two. " . . 'fhey came on to town without l. seeking more information but found it late that evening when I they saw Skinner making for home carrying a fish pole , woebegone - gone look and nary a fish. . Under Republican Adminiatration Our manufactures have doubled since 1896 , Our farm values and" crop values have doubled since 1896. mployment and wages have raIsed from 50 to LOO per cent .since ' . 1896. A thousand mhl on dollars ha\te been added to our saving banles since 1896. And failures , in spite of the enormous increase in husiness have fallen off more than half as compa , e4 with with 1896. Train. Change Time. A new time schedule .went into effect last Sunday and the time of all trains was changed , except Nos 39 and 40 , the local passenger - senger between Broken Bow and Lincoln. 'fhere wasn't much change , but the enough to leave you unless the train is behind time-which is usually the case. The time at Broken Bow under the new schedule is as follows : . ! ! W S'1' l'OUND.

Uncle Sam is wealthy , but he finds thltt it takes a surprising amount of money to support an automobile. The officials of the Treasury department at Washington - ington , gasped las' ! week when they looked over the report of the Collector of Customs at San Fran isco and found that it cost Sl , 80 to run the official auto during the last six months , or abe t $8 , for each busin ss day. In ! ldditiont a1400 clerk has been install d.as chauffeur. 'l'he ol\ector \ in his report acknowledges - -ledges that the automobile is expensive , but he asserts it is not l xqry but absolute necessity , talting into consideration the condition of the city.
