The voice of the democratic ma chine talks fluently of republican de ception. while every utterance made In that Journal is taken by the public with an (?). Why bless you man, you havn’t witten t truthful state ment in so long that you have for gotten how. Should the voice1 of the democratic machine reproduce its utterances re garding “third termors” that appear ed in its columns some months ago, It might be interesting al tills time. No doubt it would accomplish mire public good tlmn to cite the public to n "faction” In the republican ranks that does not exist. The entire republican ticket Is composed of capable men. Each man is fitted for the position lie as pires to fill and we him* no reason for a republlnn voter to desire to add another term to the opposition be ause they have filled two terms faith fully. Faithful servie is what the publi lias a right lo expet o every publi oiiii 1 and i they do not roeive it, one term is suiient.

To what extent a man's imagina tion will carry him is fully exempli fied in the last issue of the demo cratic voice. Kditorially, the management of The Tribune commented upon the demo cratic machine treatment of it. c. James in hia recent candidacy for county Judge. Not an assertion we mailt was denied by that treat ex. ponent of democracy, but he at. bnco begins a tirade of personal abuse upon l\ F. Heavis, dubbing him as the author in this very strong language; "The sweet sentimental strains therein will at once lie recognized ns the product of the pen of Mr. Heavis. No one ever becomes quite ns senti mental and no one makes a greater failure of hiding bis Identity.” We feel highly complimented by ^having our product classed among the high order that is always the pro duct of Mr. Heavis' pen, but what of Mr Heavis? Ho certainly must feel that the mighty have fallen when such judgment is passed upon him by Ills famed critic. We consider Mr. Heavis among the best writers in tlie state and we are always glad to give him space, but will say for the benefit of this lost soul, to whom a true and just statement of facts is a stranger, that owing to a press of personal business, Mr. Henyis lias not written a line for The Tribune for months except such as headed, “communicated.” We hope this explanation will appease the wrath of liis highness, and that in justice to Mr. ltcavis, lie make public acknowledgement of this gross injustice. Will lie act the part of a man? You can guess. A PLAIN BUNCO CAME. The reading public is already fa miliar with the “noli-partisan” bun co game of the democratic plat form of 1909, formulated for the express purpose of deceiving Nebras ka republic ans into voting for the dem cratic candidates for the supreme court and regents of the university, under the thin disguise that the dem ocratic candidates are the best men “because they are democrats.” The democratic platform deceitfully words the non-partisan game in this wise: “We urge all Nebraskans in voting for supreme judges and for regents to lay aside party prejudice and ties. We hope no democrat will vote for a candidate for either of these offices merely because the candidate is a democrat, and that no republican will vote for such a candidate because he is a republican. We urge each and every voter of all parties to vote for the man when he goes to the box this fall and not for the party label.” This pronouncement “listens well" " g._ " ami if it Weic not for the ov> rv< h. lur lug mass of evidence ready at hand; to prove the hide-bound partisan char acter of the riempcratie party of Ne braska at all times, these “fair words of promise" might deceive the citi zen who does not go beneath the surface for the real facts. But the proof is ample and lias been piled up by the democratic politicians themselves in mass that can not be overlooked except by him who will not see. The last session of the Nebraska legislature, of unfavorable memory, was directed by an overwhelming ma jority in both houses and ruled over by a democratic governor. l)emo cratlc partisans were in complete con trol and worked their sweet will without let or hindrance. Was there a “halo of non-partisanship” resting above the democratic legislature and the democratic governor? Was there a rainbow of non-partisan promise displayed In the political sky to as sure republican officials and em ployes of the state that the demo cratic party stood "for the man and not the party label?” Not that any body could detect with the linked eye. Instead of a show of non-part isanship the democratic party through its authorized and accredit ed agents, the legislature and gover nor, Indulged In a saturnalia of par tisan legislation the parallel of which has not been offered in any other state in the union. Kvery state of ficial, amploye, board, commission and operative who could be reached by statutary enactment was "Mwllen Ized" Into a partisan democrat as rapidly as the legislative wheels could grind out the necessary room at the democratic pie counter. No less than twelve separate laws were passed to give the democratic gov ernor power to remove republicans from the service of the state and put democratie partisans in their places and those twelve enactments covered every possible state employment that could be reached by legislative effort. This is a grand showing of which democrats maj found the claim of sincerity (?) in their ‘•non-partisan" pretentions this year and ought to bo valuable evidence that democrats want "the man" aud not "the party label." Further and incontrovertible evi dence of the deceit in the democratic "non-partisan" campaign this year is (he fact that the democratic politi cians of the state, the "line-workers" and manipulators of the party, and i lie avowed democratic press of the state, have all lined up solidly behind the democratic candidates ami arc fighting for their election tooth and nail In the same old desperate par tisan way. Democratic politicians arc "non-partisan" this year when they see no hope of winning in any other way. No republican voter should per mit himself to be deceived by the shallow aud ridiculous pretention.

One of The Shubert Successes Is Coming Here. Next Wednesday evening, Septem ber 15, at the Gehling Theatre will be a gala event among amusement seekers, the occasion being the first posetitatlon in this city of "The Wolf,” the latest play of Eugene Wai ter, as produced by the Messrs, Sam S. and Lee Shubert and the one that created such n furore in New York and Chicago where it enjoyed long runs, to audiences that tested the capacity of the theatres. "The Wolf” is said to lie strong .in conception, dramatic in execution and vitally Interesting throughout. It tells a story of that wonderful Hud son Uay country and of tin1 primal, eternal struggle- between man for the] possession of a woman. Dark pas sion and pure; sentiment arc- set in opposition, but there is nothing hack-1 neyed. The men are not of the famll-j inr state typo, nor arc; tin- scenes of a mechanical order. The father of Hilda MeTavish is a Scotchman whose narrowness of mind drives his wife into the world. The child, Hilda, is left behind. When McDonald,a handsome American engi neer, appears, lie covets the simple girl and engages old MeTavish in a plot to lure Hilda tin1 way her mother Intel gone. McDonald is not a vIlian for tlic- "gods,” however, and deeds of violence he leaves to the hero, whielt certainly seems to be contrary to all the old traditions. It is here | that the critics claim the art of the playwright is seen at its best. There crops .lules Beaubien, a French Canadian, with a streak of Ojlbway from ids mother. McDonald THE GILLIGAN LOT SALE Lots Averaged $119—Eight Head of Horses Averaged Over $300.

ISth. has left Jule’s sister to die with her unborn babe. Jules recognizes him and bides his time. Baptisto. his loyal retainer, crosses himself gently as he swears that unless Jules kills McDonald, he will. Jules overhears the plotting of McDonald and McTarvish in refer ence to the iimo nt Hilda. McDon ald lias been married and was a gay blade on the White Way. Jules, of course, loves Hilda. The man en raged, declares he will crush her life out with his bare hands. The French Canadian intervenes, striking McDonald with his fist. The engi neer attempts to draw his revolvi r, hut Baptiste has linn covered with a shotgun, in the cabin window. At this point the scene closes, and one may imagine easily that tlie Interest lias increased. Immoral as he is, McDonald is fearless and persistent. He takes to tlie path and comes upon Jules. He fires at him, but his shot does not go home. Then the two engage in the most realistic and fiercest linnd-to-hand duel ever seen on the stage. Now up and down, rolling over and over in the dim light for fully a minute, the fighters struggle. Finally one is seen to droy lifeless from a stab wound. The victor lights a match and the glowing face of Jules is seen by the audience. Seats will bo placed on sale next Monday morning.

Memorial to Mary Anning. Lyme Regi' church, which, like many another building in that quaint old Dorset seaport, is in danger of slipping into the waves, has compara tively little of interest for tourist or townsman to loiter over. Its most re markable memorial is the stained glass window to Mary Anning. This was the schoolgirl who, in 1811, dis turbed the lost rest of the saurian monster — Icthyosaurus Platydon— whose remains now lie in the Natural History museum at South Kensington, i As curious a iind as any that ever : came to the net of a child on the beach, liut Mary Anning possibly | had that sort of thing in her blood, | for her father was the proprietor of a curiosity shop.—London Chronicle.

Farmers' Institute The management of the asso ciation takes great pleasure in announcing that their efforts to have a meeting of the association have met with unanmious favor, among the people of Falls City, as to warrant the assertion that this year’s show will eclipse any former effort.

Words may show a man's wit, but actions his meaning. An ounce of wit that is bought is worth a pound that is taught. Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, half shut afterwards. Ne’er take a wife till th^u hast a house (and a fire) to put her in. If a' man could have half his wishes, he could double bis trou bles. ‘' Drink does not drown care, but waters it and makes it grow faster. If you would keep your secret from an enemy, tell it not to a friend. Good sense is a thing ail need,few have, and none think they want. Pride breakfasted with Plenty, dined with Poverty, supped with Infamy. When out of favor none know thee; when in, thou dost not know thyself. If your riches are yours, why don’t you take them with you to the other world ? Lend money to an enemy, and thou’lt gain him; to a friend, and thou'lt lose him. Be civil to all,serviceable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; " enemy to none. Work as if you were to live a hundred years; pray aH if you were to die tomorrow. The wise man draws more advan tage from his enemies than the fool from his friends. A wise man will desire no more than what he may get justly, use sob erly, distribute cheerfully, and leave contentedly. Doing an injurj puts you below vour enemy; revenging one makes you even witli him; forgiving it sets you above him.
