political implement.
KANSAS and Iowa have returned U
the Republican column in fine form.

year ; but the increase vote all went tt
the Fusion ticket. Hence the disaster
JUDGK NORRIS' vindication is conclus
ive and complete. The people of the
.Fourteenth district have said so in m
uncertain voice.

be summarized as follows : Ohio Re
publican by 50,000 ; Kentucky Republi
can by 7,000 ; Pennsylvania Republicai

ABSTRACT OF , THE
NEBRASKA.
ELECTION HELD ON NOVEMBER 7 , 1899.
For burns , cuts , bruises , lacerations , or in
juries of any description , BALLARD'S
SNOW LINIMENT is a sovereign remedy.
It never fails to do fr ° ° d , and so quickly that
its wonderful curative properties frequently
create surprise. Price 25 and 50 cts. McConnell -
nell & Berry.
Wasn't that a nice compliment paid to the
Ohio Democrats by Mark Hanna when he
said : "Their ways are not our ways ? "
LaGrippe , with its after effects , annually
destroys thousands of people. It may be
quickly cured by One Minute Cough Cure , the
only remedy that produces immediate results
in coughs , colds , croup , bronchitis , pneumonia
and throat and lung troubles. It will prevent
consumption. D. W. Loar.
The "Now that the smoke of battle lias
cleared away" editorial will soon again be in
painful evidence.
Dr. W. Wixon , Italy Hill , N. Y. , says , "I
heartily recommend One Minute Cough Cure.
It gave my wife immediate relief in suffocat
ing asthma. " Pleasant to take. Never fails
to quickly cure all coughs , colds , throat and
lung troubles. D' W. Loar.
A comic opera star went out on a Nebraska
farm the other day and worked for an hour
shocking corn. Heretofore she has turned
all of her talent toward shocking audiences.
Constipation means the accumulation of
waste matter that should be discharged daily ,
and unless this is done the foul matter is ab
sorbed and poisons the system. Use IIERB-
INE to bring about regularity of the bowels.I . I
You will get relief and finally a cure. Price 50
cents. McConnell & Berry.
