Governor Crounse denies with considerable warmth of ^expression the report that he is likely to call an extra session. And yet, de plorable as an extra session may be, it is more than probable that the governor will lie compelled by force of circumstances to call the legislature' ’together.^before spring. The parsimony^of the last session has already crippled several of the state institutions. For this reason alone the governor is likely to be compelled to call a special session whether he likes it or not.-—Lincoln News. A Pennsylvania judge lias de cided the personal property of a National bank not to be taxable. The judge holds that the national banks are agencies of the national government and that, as congress has allowed them to be taxed by the states only in two particulars (on their real estate and shares), a tax upon their personal property is beyond the state’s power. Republicans of Red Willow countv keep your powder dry. Your heads cool and level. Your tongs civil. Get out the full vote. Saw wood. Dont monkey with the band wagon. Keep in the middle of the road. Be vigliant. QWorkJpfor thej""whole ticket. And the world is yours, and the fullness thereof. iHEjcandidates are findingJ|out who their friends are during the campaign. In this respect it is no different from other campaigns but some of the nominees wTho are experiencing their first race for an office are having some facts impressed upon their minds which they did not know before. Recent disclosures indicate that on the record of the court of pub lic opinion next week we will find this notation: “Nov. 7, 1893; State ex rel T. 0. C. Harrison vs. Silas Holcomb et al.; judgment for plaintiff for possession,Maxwell, J, dissenting.” Investigation develops that while there are some advantages to be derived from township organ ization, the system is too expensive and unwieldy to be adopted by Red Willow county at this time. The silver purchasing clause of the Sherman act has ceased to be a law, its unconditional repeal hav ing passed the senate Monday by a vote of forty three to thirty two. Now that repeal is an accom plished fact, capitalists, investors and bankers of the east, bring on your loud promised era of prosperity. The crank element is a constant menace to men in power and placed even in free America. Joslins SOMETHING For Nothing! Send for Our New Catalogue, Sent to any address FREE OF CHARGE.

There is not a single candidate upon the republican ticket whose fitness or qualification for the office to which he has been nominated needs one line of defence. They are men well known to the people cf this county, every one of them. The republican ticket requires no defence. It is a ticket of the peo ple and by the people aud should be elected by the votes of the peo ple of Red Willow county, Novem ber 7. _ Only a few days till election and the campaign liar who is wide awake to the necessities and privileges of his calling will make haste to tell all the lies he wants in the few remaining hours be tween now and the closing of the polls.

RED WILLOW COUNTY. ( 61 ’ Oil this 26th day of October, 1S93, person ally appeared before me the undersigned, a notary public, duly commissioned and qual ified for and residing in Red \Villow county, Nebraska, Frank H. Spearman, Sylvester Oordeal and Joseph A. Cordeal, to me known to be residents of Red Willow county, Ne braska, who lit tnv presence signed the fore going articles of incorporation, and who before me and in my presence jointly and severally acknowledged the foregoing instru ment and the execution thereof to be their voluntary act and deed for the uses and pur poses therein set forth. Witness my hand and notarial seal the day and year last above written. [seal.] C. H. Boyle. Notary Public. My commission expires January 23d, 1897. The man who invented the Aus * . tralian ballot system was an ingen ious fellow. He thought he had a scheme that would cover ever} manner of sin that the broad land affords. But he had never been in Kansas. He didn’t know what; politics is; he was a simple old soul and had only viewed the green fields from afar off. Otherwise he would have given up the chase. How could he know that on any given Kansas quarter section the number of different political creeds tallies with the number of votes? How could the man who invented a system of voting for the civilized world know that it would be adopt ed by Kansas, when, in some coun ties in a year of drouth, the num ber of tickets runs way up in the teens? Even in this year of the seven fat kine in Sedgwick county, Kansas, there is a Republican tick et in the field, and a Democratic ticket, and in addition to this a Populist ticket, a straight Populist ticket, a Prohibition ticket and a Stalwart Democratic ticket. Each of the Populist tickets and each of the Democratic tickets claims the proud right of having the unqual ified party name at its masthead. What is to be done? There is no man on the Repub lican ticket better qualified for the office to which he has been nomi nated than is A. H. Barnes for the position of couuty treasurer. He will make an honest, faithful a"nd obliging officer, a fact admitted by all. He will be strongly support ed throughout the county, where he has been widely known for the past six or eight years. Judge Maxwell in bolting the Republican nominee for supreme judge has not endeared himself to Republicans generally. His let ter will doubtless give Harrison mauy votes which otherwise would have gone to Holcomb. Judge Maxwell has astonished even his admirers and friends with his act of ingratitude. Frank Everist is made of the stuff that makes things move. A young man of such qualifications is badly needed on the board of county commissioners. He should be solidly supported and elected by a nice plurality. If the people of the third com missioner district know a good thing when they see it they will elect Frank Everist by a handsome plurality. He will make a rattling, businesslike commissioner. The nominees of the Eepublican party are undeniably competent to to fill the various offices to which they aspire. They are men of un assailable ability, and are worthy of your support, voters. Friday and Saturday of this week are the last days of registra tion. Do not wait for a caraiage or a footman to call and take you to the place of registration but go and register. The Voorhees repeal was put through the house in short order by a vote of 191 to 94. And President Cleveland promptly sign ed the measure. J. C. Moore is eminently fitted for the office of county superintend ent, and will make a splendid of ficer if elected. Give him an en thusiastic support. The “White City” will now be known as the deserted city.The fair closed on Tuesday without cere mony on account of the murder of Mayor Carter Harrison. This is a Eepublican year and the republicans should emphasize it by registering and voting. THE STUDY OF A WORD. The Resources and Variety of Information It Is I.ikely to Furnish. The great dictionaries are a library in themselves and furnish an exhaustless source of information. A study of a single word like cross in the Century Dictionary shows the resources and va riety of information that a familiar word may furnish. There are 15| col umns devoted to this word and its com binations. There are 24 pictorial illus trations. All in all there are 257 differ ent words made out of cross which have to be defined. In the great Oxford Dic tionary there are 11 pages given to this word, or twice as much as in the Cen tury. In the Century the study is highly fascinating. There are 14 radical ly different sets of definitions to the word itself. The fundamental idea is, of course, the cross, the crux for crucifying, but it has come to have a variety of meaning as a monument, a crucifix, the atone ment, the Christian religion itself, any suffering for Christ's sake, anything that thwarts or vexes, a mixing of breeds in animal breeding, a term used in chang ing plants, a joint in a pipe, the acci dental contact of two electric wires, a sportsman phrase for a contest dishon estly decided. xucu uuaa ucuuxxxcouxx aujcutive, witii several meanings, as falling, athwart, passing from one of two positions, per verse, etc., to the other, being opposed, being peevish or fieriui, ill tempered, thoroughly contrary, in the breeder’s vocabulary. Then it becomes an adverb, meaning transversely or adversely. Then it becomes a verb, with all kinds of sig nificance, from the running of a line to cross a thing, to cancel by crossing, to cross one’s self in devotion, passing from side to side of a man, to go over a body of water, to obstruct, to cause to inter fere, to cross plants, to hoist from the deck to its place on the mast any of the lighter yards. Then there is the preposition, in riding cross-country or walking cross-lots. All this with the simple word itself, which goes cavorting from the most sacred thought in the world to the breeder’s and the sportsman’s language of the coop and ranch. After this the mysteries begin. There are crosses—anserated, arellane, bezan ty, bretesse, catoosed, commisse, cre nele, estoile, fitche, floury, gringole, lam beaux, moline, nowyed, nyle, quatre foil, saltier, sarele, resarceled. Then there are the innumerable compounds ©f cross from cross-armed, cross-bated, cross-biter, cross-bar and cross-bun, through cross-flucan, cross-ruff, cross sower and cross-spale to cross-wort. Then there are a cross-grained set of crosses, such as crossarchinal, cross archus, crossette, crossopinal, crossop terygia, crossopterygian, crossopterygi dae, crossopterygii, crossopterygia, cross opterygium, crossopus, crossorhined and crossorhininae. It is incomprehensible that a word so Bimple should have gone rollicking all over the earth, into the bowels of the earth, into the depths of the sea, among the fowls of the air, the horse upon the turf, to card table, to the ships upon the sea, to the fishes in their glee, to the sharks in their ferocity, to the architect and plumber, to the farmer in his har rowing, to the railroad in its building, to the engine in its working, to the seam stress in her labors, to the spider in his webbing, to the spinner at his loom, to the lawyers in their pleading, to a shrew in her wrangling, to the gunner in the fort, to the miner at his lode, to the Turk as he sits, to the sword of the glad iator, to the expert with his telescope, to the woman in her gazing and in her dressing, to the athletes in their wres tling and to the swindler at his arts.—A. E. Winship in Journal of Education. Queer Phenomena of Falling Bodies. I am unable to say who first noticed the peculiar caprices of a stone or other heavy body dropped from the top of a high tower, but it is nevertheless a curi ous fact that such objects invariably fall slightly to the east of the perpendicular line. Persons of inquiring turn of mind who ask why this is as it is may find an answer in the following: All falling bod ies partake of the earth’s eastward mo tion to a greater or lesser extent. There fore during the time occupied by a stone in falling from the top of a high tower or other eminence the earth’s rotary mo tion has carried it an appreciable dis tance to the east. The initial impetus of the stone has carried it to the east ward also, therefore it strikes the earth to the east of the perpendicular, vary ing in degree according to the height from which it has fallen. A curious article on this subject may be found in the Leipsic Zeitung of May 9, 1889, page 3. The author of the ar ticle, who has given it the title of “The Nonperpendicularity of High Towers,” claims that the tower on St. Peter’s ca thedral at Rome leans 18 inches to the east.—St. Louis Republic. A Singular Coincidence. The chaplain of an American jail vouches for the following. A little boy was taken by his parents to visit the prison, and on passing one of the cells in which a notorious criminal had been incarcerated his father playfully pushed him in and closed the door upon him. The child, overcome by some vague ter ror, screamed aloud and could scarcely be comforted by his mother’s caresses. Years passed. The lad half thought lessly fell into crime and was only re called to his better nature on finding himself, having been sentenced to a term of imprisonment, in the identical cell into which he had been momentarily thrust as a child. Spent Only One. Little Dot—Mamma gave me two quarters to buy candy, but I only spent one of them. Father—That’s something like. Now M give you another quarter to put with the other. Little Dot—Thank you, but I can't put it with the other till I find it. It dropped out of my pocket on the way to the candy store.—Good News.
