The Republicans of Red Willow county
will name the winners Tuesday August
20th in Indianola The regular con
vention call appears in full at the top of
this column
The fall election is one of
portance and the matter of selecting
candidates should engage the earnest
attention of every Republican in Red
Willow county during the few weeks
before the convention The selection of
clean men of ability means certain
victory
Doubtless for fear that brooding over
the big steel strike might inspire some
crank to a desperate deed the police de
partment in New York is taking unusual
precautions to guard President Schwab
of the Steel trust The same is true of
J Pierpont Morgan to guard whom four
detectives are reported to have been
assigned
Morgan the king of the syndicates
says that the United States iron and
steel corporation will never concede the
point the strikers demand the forcible
unionization of any plant under its con
trol and Shaffer says that the amalga
mated association will never accept any
compromise So the working man ap
pears to be between the devil and the
deep sea Journal
Desirable Foods for Summer
Lean meats eggs milk and cheese are
in proper proportions and when taken
with succulent vegetables and fruits de
sirable foods for summer But the fats
of meats and fat meat such as pork
large quantities of cream and butter as
well as olive oil should be ad voided
The latter however is preferable as it
does not contribute so rapidly to the
bodily heat as do the animal fats Avoid
hot and heavy deserts Use fruits in
abundance Mrs S T Rorer in The

Junction to Kearney the winter wheat
is good and mostly threshed and yields
from fifteen to forty bushels to tho acre
spring wheat is from one third to one
half a crop with straw short Corn
because of no rains recently is seriously
damaged despite that it has stood the
intense heat and drouth and in places
will make half a crop if rains come
within a reasonable lime Fruit i s
damaged pastures are drying up gar
dens are destroyed and tho potato crop
will be very short
The Southern division which includes
the lines from St Joe and Atchison to
Oxford and branches reports good
good winter wheat mostly threshed
corn with only local showers seriously
damaged but with rains may make half
a crop oats from one fourth to one half
a crop and being mostly cut for feed

Burlington Seeks Feeder
Lead
S D July 24 Special
The rumors of the purchase of the Black
Hills Ft Pierre railroad by the Burl
ington are all but confirmed It is prac
tically certain that August ist the Home
stake company will turn over to the
Burlington about forty miles of narrow
guage road embracing the line between
this city and Piedmont with several
spurs into adjoining mining and wood
camps The Homestake company has
operated the road principally for the
wood and fuel that are needed at the
mine and mills It is remarked here
that it is singular that the Homestake
company would sell the road for it is
one of the most essential adjuncts of the
compati Nothing can be learned of
the terms or conditions of the proposed
sale It is asserted that the Burlington
company will put on the third rail to
the road immediately which will give
that company a direct standard guage
road into Lead from the main line It
will save to the city large freight ac
counts and extra bills for reloading at
Piedmont and Englewood It is re
ported that most all of the section men
of the Black Hills Ft Pierre road have
been laid ofF indefinitely and that the
order has been issued for an accounting
of all the rolling stock supplies etc of
the company to be ready by the first of
next month It is believed that the
Burlington at that time will take control
of the Homestake road
The Burlington company has recently
asked the city council of Lead for a
franchise running for ninety nine years
for an electric road up Main street to the
depot of the Black Hills Ft Pierre
road It is to be an extension of the
Deadwood Central narrow euaere road
between this city and Deadwood It is
understood that the company will put in
the trolley system on this line yet this
year The business men of this city are
feeling very good over the proposed sale
It means less freight and better railroad
facilities all around Lincoln Journal

Death Ended His Suffering
Monday in Indianola were enacted
the closing scenes in a sad but eventful
career when the remains of Captain
John J Lamborn were laid to rest in the
cemetery at that place with Masonic
honors Rev Trites of Wilcox conduct
ing the services in the Methodist church
at three oclock in the afternoon
The deceased passed away at Santa
Fe New Mexico on Wednesday July
17 icjor and the remains were brought
to the old home in Indianola by Mrs
Lamborn and son Charles The services
drew out a large concourse of deeplj
sympathetic friends
John J Lamborn was an early settler
in Red Willow county and was for many
years closely associated with its business
and political affairs He will be best
remembered in this county as cashier of
the State Bank of Indianola and as man
ager of the heavy real estate and loan
business of J E Seeley of Pougbkeepsie
N Y He served the county ably in the
legislature to which he was elected in
1894 Later as receiver of the Bank of
Wilcox he brought order out of chaos
and placed the bank on a sound basis of
profit and success
At the beginning of the Spanish-American
war he recruited company L Third
regiment of Nebraska volunteers and
was made captain of that company He
went south in 1S9S with the regiment
and after seven months service was
compelled to resign and returned home
broken down in health Since returning
from the south his constant aim has
been to recover his health and his lo
cation near Santa Fe New Mexico was
in the furtherance of that fond hope It
was his purpose to accompany J W
Dolan of Indianola to California in
search of location and health when the
fell destroyer closed his earthly career
by a hemorrhage
The deceased was a generous friend
a worthy foe and his death ends an
energetic able and promising career
The family may decide to return to
Indianola to live They have the deep
est sympathy of a host of firm friends

The Voice a Revealer of Character
There is no greater revealer of charac
ter than the human voice It is the first
thing that strikes us in a stranger or in
a new acquaintance If it lias that
spontaneous ring of truth that no train
ing cau impart we recognize its appeal
for confidence Some voices have the
jar of falsehood and are as full of warn
ing as the hiss of a serpent The uncon
scious natural voice is to be regarded as
an index of character To speak prompt
ly and positively is generally to act
promptly and positively to speak po
litely is to act politely and to speak
gruffly and rudely is a good way to make
rude action easy Amelia E Barr in

Captured a Rig Turtle
From the Milford Mass News
William Morey and Albert Barton
while fishing at Popolatic captured
what is considered the largest turtle
that has ever been taken from the wa
ter in this vicinity They pulled the
turtle to the surface of the water with
an ordinary fish hook and line and as
soon as he snowed his head two bullets
were discharged from a revolver into
the same which stunned it so that it
rolled over when the two fishermen
seized its tail and pulled it into their
boat and brought it to town where it
was weighed It tipped the scales at
fifty three pounds Two Frenchmen
purchased it for 150 which was con
sidered but one half its value
