OUTING SHOES.
It long ago seemed as though
shoes could never be better and
never be cheaper, but they are
better now and cheaper now than
th«y ever were before. The great
every day favorite is our men’s
and ladies’ shoe. It is ns much a
boon to the pocketbook as it is to
the feet. It won’t wear you out
to wear it out. You don’t need to
take care of it; it takes care of
itself. It will give you solid com
fort for the simple reason that a
better shoe for knockabout pur
poses has never been produced.
If prices never appealed to you
before, the price of this shoe will,
for it costs only $2.50. It will
look nicer and wear longer than
any shoe on earth.

On the question of railway reg
ulation Governor Crouuse declares
himself in favor of a material
reduction of rates, either by law
or through an elective railway
commission. While recognizing
railroads as important factors in
the development of the resources
of the state, and entitled with
other great concerns to the foster
ing care and protection of the
state, he believes that their power
to levy unreasonable burdens upon
the producers in the shape of ex
travagant freigh trates must be
restricted. In other words, while
the railroads are entitled to a fail
income on their honest investment
it is the province of the lawmakers
to set limits upon their power to
exact higher tolls from the people
of this state than are charged in
adjacent states for similar service
under like conditions.—Bee.
In Maine they are faying a new
method of reforming bad boys.
Instead of sending them to a re

possibilities of good.
WITHOUT THE
BOW (RING)
it is easy to steal or ring watches from the
pocket. The thief gets the watch in one
hand, the chain in the other and gives a
short, quick jerk—the ring slips off the
watch stem, and away goes the watch, leav
ing the victim only the chain.
This idea stopped
that little game:
The bow has a groove
on each end. A collar
runs down inside the
pendant (stem) and
Sts into the grooves,
firmly locking the
bow to the pendant,
ao that it cannot be r
pulled or twisted on. •

The complaint is becoming general
among the alliance newspapers and
leaders that the interest in alliance
work and meetings is waning. This is
perhaps a measure chargeable to the
effort now being made to organize the
Industrial league, which is expected by
some at least to supplant the alliance.
The league is more comprehensive in
its character, and is not a secret or
ganization.

Attorneys Ilittenhouse and Moore,

case of the state ul Nebraska vs. Ed.
Fitzgerald, who was charged with hav
ing broken William Karp's ieg in a
drunken brawl at tile brewery south of
Indianola, Friday, January 6tli. There
was a largo attendance upon the trial
and keen interest manifested. County
Attorney Dodge prosecuted the case;
and lias the distinction of being one of
the few prosecuting attorneys of Ne
braska who ever dismissed a ease af
ter having already introduced evidence
enough to win it. M r. Dodge says lie
dismissed the case because of iiis ina
bility to secure bis principal witness,
and says lie could have won the case
had the witness aforesaid arrived in the
court in time. The sheriff did not ar
rive with the witness in question until
after the dismissal of the action, though
having traveled 30 or 40 miles in search
of him. There are some who think
that Sidney lost his nerve, and the
gentleman is coming for some pretty
raw roasting at Indianola. Another
trial is among the probabilities.

men who have made a study of it. Much
good may come of such an interchange
of views, for agitation and intelligent

poses to make a heroic effort to collect
these taxes, which have accumulated in
the years gone, and which the several
county treasurers have neglected or
failed to collect. Treasurer Henton’s
determination will meet with approval
of all but those persons who have con
tinuously refused or neglected to pay
their share of the burden of taxation,
which has necessarily fallen more
heavily upon those who promptly and
honestly meet their obligations to the
state. The delinquency should be re
duced promptly and largely.

Representative Sheridan find himself
remembered quite handsomely in the
standing committees announced on last
Saturday by Speaker Gaffin. Of the
committee on fees and salaries he is
chairman. Besides being a member of
the following more or less important
committees: Engrossed and enrolled
bills, accounts and expenditures, insur
ance, telegraph, telephone and electric
companies.
He also introduced House roll No.
27, regulating the rental of telephones,
which will doubtless relieve this con
stituency of an onerous burden—if it
becomes a law of the land, and has se
cured the appointment of D. R. Car
penter, late of tlie Western Patriot, to
the position of third assistant clerk of
tlie House.
House roll No. 88, repealing the act
creating the state board of transporta
tion is also his handiwork; and jointly
with Representative Woods House roll
No. 89, providing for the calling of a
constitutional convention.
Representative Sheridan, who was
honored with the place of temporary
speaker, and who has been regarded as
a sensible and conservative man, is
mentioned as the recipient of a great
deal of bad treatment from his party
colleagues. Things of this kind are
numerous enough to account for the
lack of harmony which is said to exist
in the independent ranks.—Lincoln
Journal.
The Farmers Meet.
Six of the eight counties in the 14th
judicial district were represented by
small delegations in the Farmers’ meet
ing held here. Wednesday aftornoon.

manent district organization effected,

the committeemen being to ascertain the
kind and amount of products which

state be urged to secure the passage of
a pill providing for an appropriation by
the state ol the sum of $300,000 to

the farm products of the state of
Nebraska at the Wold’s Fair, and
that the committees from the several
counties confer with their respective
representatives and senators upon the
subject.

one held last Friday night at Mr. J.

rule. In fact it might properly be
said of that occasion in the language
of Byron:

meet
To chase the glowing hours with flying feet."
