E. L. Meyers was elected sena
tor of this district.
It's up to the people now to ex
plain why they were influenced by
the brewers to vote against "such
men as Sheldon. "
Ex-Senator Carmack of Tennes
see was shot by Robin Cooper , son
of Col. Duncan B. Cooper , follow
ing an article which appeared in
Carmack's paper , The Tennessee-
an , attacking Col. Cooper Mon
day afternoon.
Missouri has again been counted
in the republican column , owing
to the factional fight between
Stone and Folk in the democratic
party. Too bad. It seems that
Ohio and Indiana both elected
democratic governors ; also Min
nesota and North Dakota.
Kansas gave Taft' majority ,
but what can you expect of Kan
sas ? Those hide-bound republi
cans wouldn't vote for anybody
but a corporation tool of the re
publican brand. Look at the ma
jority they rolled up for Calder-
head for congress , and he telfs
them plainly that he thinks the
trusts are a good thing for the
c > untry and the people believe it.
Westover appears to be defeat
ed by a small majority and M. P.
Kinkaid goes to congress for two
years more but he has made sever
al promises in the campaign that
w will watch with considerable
interest as he has almost promised
democratic doctrine if he is sent
back to complete the work he
claims to have begun. We don't
believe he will fulfill his promises
if he can get enough republicans
in congress to oppose him for a
valid excuse. We don't believe
he was sincere or he would have
been busy the past six years , un
less recently converted.
It now appears that the state
ticket has gone republican , ex-
c < pting governor and lieutenant
governor. It was Sheldon the
people were after and they got
him down and out. Some of the
ring-tailed snorters who have been
following Sheldon since his defeat
trying to spread a little balm on
his wounded feelings are making
fools of themselves and him. The
people have spoken and very em
phatically , too. It was plain they1
Hcl't want Sheldon and his attempt
now at revenge will only show the
weakness exhibited when he re
fused to sign the 2-cent passenger
rate bill until the railroad bosses
released him by agreeing to ac
cept the rate and abide by it. The
bill would have become a law with
out his signature in five days any
way so Sheldon held off as long as
he could and then , for effect and
grandstand play , signed the bill
It will be hard to convince the
people that Sheldon has been their
loyal friend. They called him a
four-flusher a player to the gal
leries. But Sheldon now wants
rovengp. Ho thinks the brewers
didn't vote for him. Wants to
punish them. Thinks of calling a
special session of the legislature if
he can get their promise to vote
for a three-fifths majority county
option bill.
On Sunday next , November 15 ,
there will be services , both morn
ing and evening , at St. John's
Episcopal church.
J. A. Hornback and wife went
down to Broken Bow a week ago
Thursday night , being called there
on account of the serious illness of
Mr. Hornback's sister who had
been ailing for some time and died

ter the funeral Mr. and Mrs.
[ Tornback went to Surprise to
visit another sister and returned
to Valentine Tuesday morning , j
They turned their hotel business '
over to Mrs. Sears before leaving

south of R. A. McQuade's. Mr.

will do but Valentine people will
be glad to have them remain here ;
