The house of representatives passed a bill to take the tariff from su ar and raise an equal amount of revenue through an excise tax upon income over five thousand dollars annually , It may also pass the senate. A socialist ws i.ried in New York the other day for trampinjr upon an American fla r , while speaking. At the trial his lawyer said : "Hand me that rag ! ' ' The attorney escaped with an apology to the court. Koosevelt is now saying"let the people rule , " while Bryan is re tracting by saying "let me rule. " If Roosevelt is defeated by Taft for the nomination you may ex pect him to say the people are un fit to rule , while if Harmon gets the nomination on the democratic ticket Bryan can go to South America while we hold the elec tion. Ben A. Brewster , editor of the Chadron Chronicle , has filed as a candidate for state senator in the Twenty-eighth senatorial district , subject to the primaries , April 19. There is no doubt that Mr Brewster will get the nomination as the democratic candidate. He also stands an excellent chance of being elected. There are few newspaper men elected to office because they are generally kept busy fighting other people's bat tles and have little encouragement tOvseek office , though they pos sess qualifications equal to many other professions and know the needs of the people. The.\ arc the leaders most frrqaeml.i iu new thought and are in sympathy with more people than any other pro fession , though given litile credit unless they they toot their own horns. Newspaper men men ad vance opinions as a leader of ihought und are oi ten criticised. If the thought bec < mes popular ; it often b r i D g 0 a f e w i s ana another jwr , { " . hp rlpctml on the popularity after it has Ix-corm1 a fixture , or. having made no enemy in making the thought popular. We ask our readers to consider this matter and invite their attention to Mr. Brewster as a candidate for state senator. Since Mr. Bryan has announced that he will not act as a delegate to the national convention and re fuses to vote for Gov. Harmon if our people so instruct , we should not support him as a candidate. The delegates at large who will act as our state instructs , accord ing to the World-Herald , are : G. M. Hitchcock of Omaha , I. J. Dunn of Omaha , Tom Smith of York , and Fred Volpp of Scrib- ner. As delegate from our dis trict we would suggest H. H. Belwood of Alliance as an old time democrat and a good man. Mr. Bryan is unfair in his as sumption that the people of this state who have ideas of their own and have the courage to support them without asking him , are do ing so to discredit Bryan in his own state. They are supportir g their choice because of their choice and not to work against anyone. We do not believe that Bryan be lieves what he assumes , but that he is mis-stating the case , as he now accuses Mr. Hitchcock of be ing a republican and that he has labored for twenty years to make a democrat of him. It is stated that Roosevelt con templates bolting the regular re publican ticket if Taft defeats him for the nomination which he promptly denies and says he didn't SA.V it but admitted that he did say he would have a good deal to say if the people decided against him as a result of the juggling of their rights by the bosses , but that he would not explain further. That statement must be taken for just what it says at its exact face value. Roosevelt may do anything in his radical hysteria from bolting Taft to supporting La Toilette , or if the people would encourage him a bit , might try to establish himself as king or emperor. Morehead Visits Valentine John H. Morehead , acting lieut enant governor , and candidate for governor at the primaries April 19 , spent last Friday in our city visiting and getting acquainted with Valentine people and he was heartily welcomed by all. lion C. H. Cornell took Mr. Morehead in company with Col Quigle'y , D A. Hancock and I. M. Rice out to the Valentine fish hatchery and to the state experimental farm sub station in which Mr. Morehead seemed especially interested and announced that he considered the state experimental stations of vast importance to the people of our state 35 our leading and chief in dustrial pursuit and he was giving a big share of his attention to the farming and stock raising industry because it is the business of Ne braska people. In the evening Col , Quigley had planned a trip to Morey's Jewel moving picture show and had Mr. Morehead's picture flashed upon the canvas. The picture was im mediately recognised and a hearty round of applause was given our distinguished visitor. After the picture show the party gathered at the hotel annex where the time was pleasantly spent until the east bound train time when the party accompanied their guest to the train. train.Mr. Mr. Morehead came to Nebraska 29 years ago , a poor boy. In fact after he crossed the Missouri river had but § 1.50 but went to work and now nas a competence as a re ward for his industry and good business judgment. Nebraska needs such a man for governor. Mr Morehead is a pleasant agree able man to meet and a good visi tor.

To erase nil traces of scorch stains wet the scorched place , rub with soap and bleach in the sun. After blacking a stove try rubbing it over with a rag dipped in turpentine and polishing off in the usual way. It gives a beautiful jet black polish. Bop's and shoes , however damp , will polish in a few minutes if a drop or two of kerosene be added to the black ing. It also prevents the leather from cracking. A ( lark line around ire neck is often caused by wearing stiff. tijht collars. Wer.r a soft stock and clean < e Ihe neck with a good soap cream and bithe : it in cold water. It is not generally known that wringIng - Ing nut a cloth in hot water and wip ing the furniture before putting on furniture cream will result in a very high polish that will not finder mark.
