Commissioner 3d district..STEPHEN BOLLE :
The supreme court of the United
States has rendered a decision
against the legality of the railway
joint traffic association , on the
ground that the association is in
restraint of business and against
public policy.
VICTORY foi the Republican
party depends in a measure in get
ting out the full party vote , and to
this end an effort should be di
rected by all who are interested in
party success. See that every
voter in your precinct goes to the
polls on the day of election. No
man should be BO busy that he
cannot exercise his right and priv
ilege of voting.
THE supreme court of the state
of Illinois has rendered a decision
to the effect that the Pullman
Palace car company has been guil
ty of usurping power in owning
and controlling a vast amount of
real estate in various localities
which is not , necessary to the con
duct of the business of that great
corporation. This is a hard blow
at the city of Pullman , which is
owned entire by the company ,
The contention is that the com
pany is not acting within the lim
its of its charter.
COLONEL PHILLIPS of the Indi-
anola Reporter has made the as
tonishing discovery that a few
Democrats in McCook have entered
into a conspiracy to defeat Samuel
Randolph Smith. The colonel is
wrong again. Samuel Randolph
Smith will be defeated decisively
by Republican votes , and there are
plenty of them , too. However , if
even a few Democrats and Popu
lists in McCook or in any other
part of the county wish to swell
the majority and thus express their
preference for a capable man for
the office of county attorney , no
objection will be made to their voting
ing for W. R. Starr. Come , col
onel.
THERE is nothing that Congress
man Sutherland has done or can
do for the old soldier that Captain
Adams cannot do and will not defer
for his old comrades in arms.
Congressman Sutherland has not
done anything but his plain and
simple duty. As an old soldier
who saw actual service in the war
of the rebellion , Captain Adams
has more than the inducement to
do his duty to actuate him to do
everything possible for the old
soldier. He has all the love of
old soldier for comrade to spur him
on. Then over and above it all
is the fact that President McKiu-
ley should be sustained in the
settlement of the questions of the
war so gallantlv and wisely con
ducted and in reaping the benefits
of the war so bravely won. At
best Mr. Sutherland could be but
an obstructionist. Captain Adams
could and would do his best to up
hold the president in this great
emergency. Yote for the gallant
captain.

wholesome and delicious.

THE TRIBUNE hasn't lost sight
of W. R. Starr in this campaign ,
but regards his election so certain
that it has been the policy to direct
effort in other directions. But
vote for him anyhow. Make it as
unanimous as possible. He is
thoroughly qualified.
THE president has sanctioned
the verdict of guilty against Chap
lain Mclntyre of the Oregon , and
the chaplain has been dismissed
from the service. A righteous de
cision. Dismissals from the offi
cial life and ranks of the navy are
very exceptional.
CAPTAIN W. C. HENRY will speak
at Indianola on the evening of
Wednesday , November 2d. The
captain is an entertaining , earnest
talker , and will cover the political
situation in fine shape. Yon
should arrange to hear him. At
Indianola , next Wednesday evening
ing-
IN no way can you do so much
in support of the Republican ad
ministration as by voting for Ad
ams , Allen and Hathorn. A unit
ed support of them by the Repub
licans of Red Willow county will
pull them all out a majority of
nice proportions in this county.
Let us get together and give them
the same.
COLONEL MITCHELL is rapidly
graduating from an innocent , un
sophisticated liar to a robust , ma
licious and criminal liar. But no
one can force himself to regard
the colonel or the Comfort seri
ously. At best he and it are but t
pathetic instances of egotism and
gall and mendacity.
HON. E. J. HAINER will speak
in the Meiiard opera house , Mc
Cook , on Monday evening. November - t
ber 7th , at 8 o'clock. The ext
congressman makes a strong and
vigorous speech. He should be
greeted by a crowded house on
this closing occasion of this cam
paign. Circulate the news as
widely as possible. Tou ore as-
surred a strong and convincing
speech.
1 ]
STAND up for Nebraska and
President McKinley by voting for
Captain Adams for congressman.
Support the administration. Help
in the settlement of the issues of
the late war by voting for Captain
Adams , who is running on a plat
form that promises to uphold the
president , his cabinet and congress
to carry out the measures now in
hand and such wise plans as may
in the future be necessary in the o )
solution of the new and important
issues of the late unpleasantness.
Yote for Adams.
THERE isn't any use of stopping
to count up Steve Bolles' majority
this fall. He will have votes to
throw to the birds and to spare.
In the rcJle of county commis
sioner , Steve is a pastmaster.
Perhaps no man in the county has B
had wider experience unless it
be Henry Crabtree and few , if
any , are better acquainted with
the business affairs of the county. n
Commissioner Belles can easily
read his title clear to another term
in the office he has filled with
credit for years. And it is a sat
isfaction to know that the position
will be filled with the same careful
personal interest that Commission o :
er Belles pays to his own business ,
and which had made him a suc
cessful man. r <
rP
THIS campaign is naturally IE P
drifting into the question whether
or not the present administration
shall be upheld in its solution and
settlement of the vital and import C
ant questions growing out of the
late war , consequently is rising
above the mere political sphere of
action. Patriotic men of all par
ties feel that President McKinley
and his wise assistants have been
mindful of America's best inter
ests and are willing that they shall
be allowed to work out the solution.
The next senate will be Republican
mid in order to make the president
free to act out his wise plans the
house of representatives must also
be Republican , otherwise the fruits
Df the war may be lost in endless
bickerings and obstruction. Sup
port the president , .and the best
and most effective way to do this
at this time is to vote for Captain
Adams.
