Senator Hartley ( Texas ) says ho
never sinned against the principals
of democracy. Hard to offend any
thing you can't find.
The legislature promises a drouth
for Nebraska but of a sort that will
make pork and beef out of corn , In-
Htead of turning It to "personal lib
erty. "
If the democrats of Illinois had
enlisted the support of the W. C.
11. U. In the recent campaign there
would bo no necessity for the
French Lick Springs camp meeting
hold last week.
The Callaway Courier Tribune
smya "lot the farmers draw the next
lines for division" now If the Trib
une speaks for Callaway , county di
vision Is over and old Ouster coun
ty will remain as It Is and as It
nhould be , in one hunk.
"Whiskey has been causing fights
for ages hut now that Nebraska ltan
a good chance of going dry. A wat
er fight Is promised that will Inter-
st the Platte river farmers trlliu-
tray to North IMattc , Cozad and
Lexington. Even the water wagon
cotneR high.
Before election its always a guess
but after election its the real thing
You know who the fellow is and
sidestepping don't go. Wo are now
living in ti progressive up-to-the
minute ago and the fellow who mad
promises to"get there" will have tc
deliver the dope or "go way bacl ,
and Bit down. "
Some body put grease on the poll
and the'cost of living la slipping
down , but Dr. Wileythinks some
mutt will put sand on the axis of
exlutonce and let 'em climb up again
Then comes uncle Jim Wilson with
H statement that there's plenty of
grub and if some "personal liberty"
feller don't block the game between
producer and consumer wo can all
fill up by spring.
Wlllard F. Dalloy , secretary of
the Nebraska Capital Removal asso
ciation , will call a meeting of the
executive committee at either Kear
ney or Broken Bow soon to perfect
the organization of a legislative com
mlttoo and to censlder other uncom-
ploto work. The fight will be push
ed to a finish. Ex.
Broken Bow capital of Nebraska
Wouldn't that swell your thoughts ?
It may happen.
When a town Is growing so rapIdly -
Idly that Its schools become crowded
to such an extent that some of the
young * people of school ago are un
able to get on the student rolls.
That a new thirty-five thousand dollar
lar school building Just about com
pleted will not accomodato these
wanting an education. Wo think
there Is some prospects of a bright
future. That's Broken Bow and for
all wo know may be the capital of
Nebraska some day.

I gave in favor of Doan's Kidney
IMlls In July 1907 , still holds good.
J then said that our Httlo girl was
greatly troubled from childhood by
a kldiioy weakness and that nothing
helped her until she used Doan's
Kidney Pills. The contents of two
boxes of this remedy effected a
cure and I am glad to say that thera
has been no recurrence of the
trouble. We procured Doan's Kid
ney Pills at Haeberle's Drug Store
and they not only corrected the
kidney weakness , but acted as a
tonic to the entire system. "

feated the high school of that .place
with a score of 20 to 0 ; while the
college boys used the same conveyance - I
anco to Sargent and played a hotly
contested game with the city team
of that place , which resulted in a
score of 3 to 2 In favor of the col-
logo. The two teams belonging to'
the high school , aud the college
team , are putting in long hours and
plenty of extra work , so that they
may close the season on Thanks
giving day In a blaze of glory. All
three of the elevens have played

Kebekah Kensington
The Rebckah Kensington society
which was recently reorganized met
In the Odd Follows hall last Friday
afternoon with a good representatio
of the membership present. The after
noon was profitably spent in mak
ing comforts 'for ladles of this city.
The Odd Fellows home at York
which is now In course of construc
tion will be completed within a year
and the ladies of the several lodges
throughout the state arc doing good
work and expect to be able to fur
nish a number of rooms In the home
with the money earned by the sew
ing societies. We understand they
will do all kinds of plain sewing.
Important.
The amusement of children Is of
ten a problem for everybody and
always a study to the conservative
mind. We wish to call attention to
one form of past time practiced by
some of our little boys and ask you
to consider the dangerous chances
they are taking almost dally. We re
fer to the little follows catching on
the rear end of wagons and buggies
that are being driven along the
streets. It Is not only good judg
ment but very necessary for a driv
er to look ahead and on a busy
street he has no time to look to the
rear of his wagon. A short time
ago a little boy was killed In Lin
coln by an automobile. He had bee
riding on the rear end of a coal wag
on and the driver did not know he
was on the wagon until some time
after he had jumped off the wagon
and been killed. We have a numbo
of automobiles In our city and just
such an accident could occur here
although a word of suggestion might
prevent It.
Let Tnviu Cut Ills Foot Off
It Is not a very uncommon thing
for persons to become discouraged
and throw themselves before a mov
ing train with the Intent to commit
suk'ldo , but for one to deliberately
poke his foot under the wheels of a
moving train and thus have It ampu
tated Is something seldom If over
heard of until the other day when
a tramp performed the act between
Junlata and Konesaw. The man wh
did the foolish act told the follow
ing story to a reporter of a news
paper who Interviewed him after the
occurrence :
"My name Is Sam Childs ; I was
thirty years old October 20 ; my par
ents llvo at Leotl , Kansas. I was
born In Tennessee. When my brotl >
er and myself were old enough to
work a little my father became
cranky and grow worse as we grow
older. 1 got out of bed once at I
midnight and ran away , but later re-
tuiiKd on the advice of my friends ,
only to be driven away again. Ihavo
