VALENTINE DEMOCRAT

Mark Zarr - - Foreman.
Thursday , March 10 , 1910.
Ex-Senator Thomas C. Platte
died of Bright's disease in New
. York City Sunday. He had been
a prominent figure in republican
politics in New .York , for thirty
years. Miss Mae Wood can now \
sue for a share of his estate as a
widow.
The Cudahy Affair.
People will draw their own con-
clusions of the Cudahy affair in
Kansas City. John P. Cudahy
was a man of business and his
wife , a daughter of Jown C. Cow-
an of Omaha , a society woman
who enjoyed company and being
entertained. Jere F. Lillis , presi-
dent of the Western Exchange
bank , reported a millionaire , was'
I a bachelor and an entertainer of
. .
I " women whose husbands were too I
:
busy with business to keep up a .
constant courtship to hold the af
fections and occupy .the spare time
c of their wives with automobiling
I
over the splendid rock- roads lead
ing out of Kansas City.
Lillis bought a new runabout
I and promised Mrs. Cudahy the
first ride. She had enjoyed the
first ride in a previous car and re
quested the first ride in this to
dedicate it so to speak. They
went riding Friday afternoon.
Again'Saturday and evening. Mr.
; Cudahy was supposed to be down
. to Grainfield looking at some cat-
tle , as Mrs. Cudahy had told their
chaffeur. Late Sunday night or
c early Sunday morning Mr. Cudahy
t" , and his chauffeur returned hom'e
. and finding Mr. Liljis , . aiid Mrs.
Cudahy together in the library
. . they began an attack on the pair ,
finally binding Lillis with a rope
l . and stripping IMS lower - - clothing -
'
t . off prClcppdpd to carve him with a
. . . knife. Mrs. Cudahy cappd up-
e stairs ufter I receiving a black P.VP
t : . . and continued to scream after call-
1 ' : : ing a policeman 1 who stoppod p thp
. ' . carving just before ' it had been
cumplPted.Mr. . Cudahy was tak- :
en to th , ' policp station where he
:
was released on a $100 bond.
Mrs. ; Cudahy proceeds to tell
.
. her story. Her father believes it.
. . . . and says * hc i- i , is i inn < .ci int . Lillis I
. was taken \ j to St. ? Vliir . \ ' * h 1 . - itul
and is reports ! not very Sl ) ' r . I < l.v
. . injured and will . - r not ' , ' pro uute.

I He refuses to make any statement
I further of the affair. Cudahy's
statement to the policeman who
arrested him , that Lillis had ruin-
ed his home , is all that he has said
of the affair.
It may be a lesson to the indis-
creet and forward , and will cer-
tainly will be to these people. It
may not" more than check the so-
ciety evils , for all men are not like
Cudahy , nor so bold as to invade
the sanctity of a home like Lillis. ! :
But it is human nature to err if
no other restrictions than ] lack of
opportunity prevails.
Where should the line be drawn ?
Women must have the privilege
of free speech and bewitching
smiles as they cannot command.
If they are attractive it may lead
to folly. Should Mrs. Cudahy be
allowed to ride with another man ?
Then , how often ? and should she
invite her companion in after a
late ride while her husband is sup-
posed to be out of town ?
Yes , she may be innocent and
only a beautiful , attractive woman ,
born and bred an entertainer with-
out impure motives but indiscreet
and lacking the sternness of pro-
priety. But people generally will
sympathize Vith the husband in
this case and brand Lillis as the
villain/

T
Hot Shotting Kinkaid. l
From the Lincoln Trade Re-view ,
we quote the following touching
Moses Kinkaid's Alaska coal land
traffic :
"The low conception which
many . members of congress have
of the ethics of their position is
illustrated ) ) in the ' case of Kinkaid
of Nebraska and a number of oth-
er congressman in their efforts to
get rich through Alaska coal land ,
the opportunity coming to them
because they are congressman. It
I is not the technical question of
the bare legal ) right of Kinkaid to
become a coal land claimant ] , so
.
much as the moral aspect of the
case that arouses criticism. The
theory that men go to congress to
make use special privil. ) ges aiid
private snaps is too much in use.
Men who- do these thins show
their contempt for mom ! honest.v ,
no mutter if they are in the lines )
of the law. J They do this ! when
they collect ) salary for period br-
fore they are elected to office ;
they do it when they raise their
own salaries : when thoy are in of- J
-
fice , even if they ] dodge the vote
and tell the whip of the house that J
1
they . will ' vote if . needed but want .

I lic offices for their private gain.
Congressman Kinkaid had claims
created in the sand hills of Ne-
braska for his constituents but
when it came to coal land claims
of great expected : value and stand-
ing in 'with the Cunninghams and
Guggenheimes there was only one .
claim in sight and hearing and
that went in the most quiet way to
the congressman from the Sixth
district. Without thought or evi-
dent conception of the real ] ethics
ill the case the congressman calls
\ a
the transaction one that cannot be
criticised , but there are those old
fashioned enough to think differ-
ently. " '
The railroads have announced
an increase of more than 25 per
cent in freight rates on meat pro-
ducts from South Omaha to east-
ern markets. It's time to make a
kick. We see the power of wealth
and special privilege corporations
I in forcing higher prices. Our
"infant indust ie , " - fostered by
I
republicanism , are now leading us
by the nose. They also drive us
around at w-ill under a bond of
servitude that we seem unable to
throw aside Where is the end
to this domineering force under
which we struggle ? Whither will f
it lead us in the next twenty-five
or fifty years ? They now appear
to dictate with authority under
protection and laws in opposition
are declared unconstitutional.

Do farmers eat the proper
. sort of food ?
" ' . .
The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
It's a good thing that this is so because
he has a great variety to select from.
He should , however , use great care
in selecting for the best results in
health and . .
strength. \
The widespread tendency in the city
to increase the amount of Quaker Oats
eaten is due very largely to the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
I the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor , ,
! . Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase .
the quantity of Quaker Oats eaten by
themselves , their children and the
farm hands. . 57 : .

Millions
Lives Lost
I \
An Awful Toll Collected by
j I t Consumption. Many
I - Unnecessary Deaths . . ,
I From This Disease.
I
If people could only understand
that systemic catarrh is an internal
disease that external applications
cannot cure , they would not need
1 to be warned so often abou.fc this
I malady , which , when neglected ,
I paves the way oftentime for con-
sumption , at the cost of millions of
lives every year. Yet catarrh may
, . be cured , if the right treatment is
employed.
| I Catarrh is caused by a general ]
j + diseased state of the system which
leads commonly to annoying and
perhaps serious , local conditions ,
I which may prove a fertile breeding
I .
1 ground for germs of consumption.
I External remedies give bul ; tem
porary eaFe.
The only way to successfully
treat catarrh is by employing a
i
medicine which is i absorbed and
I carried by the blood to all parts of
the system , so that the mucous
! I I membrane or internal lining of the
I body is toned up and made capable
I of resisting the infection of con-
sumption and other diseases.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription of a physician who
for thirty years studied and made
: catarrh a specialty , and whose
i
ii
I record was a patient restored to
health in every case where his treat-
ment was followed as prescribed.
That remedy is Rexall Mucu-Tone.
We are so positive that it will
completely overcome catarrh , in
all its various forms , whether acute
or chronic , that we promise to re
turn every penny paid us for the
medicine in every case where it
fails or'for any reason does not
satisfy the user. .
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We are right here
where you live , and you do not con-
tract any obligation or risk when
you try Rexall Mucu-Tone on our
guarantee. We have Rexall Mucu-
Tone in two sizes , 50 cents and
$1.00. Very often the taking of
one 50-cent bottle is sufficient to
make a marked impression upon
the case. Of course in chronic
cases a longer treatment is neces-
sary. The average in such instances
is three $1.00 bottles. Remember
you can obtain Rexall Remedies in
Valentine only at our store , - The

gist. .
