The stuuo story has boon told HO frequently tlmt iimny will liavo to BOO the mines in actual operation before they are iiicliued to believe the rumor. Ernest S. Booflold has retired from the .Elgin Review and 13. W. MoKoou , formerly of the "Wiusido Tribune , but lately of Washington , D. O. , has pur chased the plaut nud will conduct the business in the future. Mr. MoKoon is well qualified to give Iho people of Elgin a good paper aud will do it without a doubt. "I am iieithor a bull nor n boar on Morgan stocks. I am president of the TJuitod States and sworn to execute the law. I will proceed against you or any of your combinations as quickly as 1 would against n striker , not because I am opposed to either capital of labor , except as either of them is a violator of the laws of the country. " President Roosevelt to J. Piorpout Morgan. Carrie Nation struck a hard crowd nt Yale. She was induced to alt for her picture , with a glass of water in bor hand. While eho was intent on the camera a number of students congre gated nbont her. Quo was drinking whisky , another was lighting a pipe and I others wore smoking cigarettes.whilo the I manipulation of the dark room changed the gloss of water held by Carrie into a foaming glass of beer. It was n bac chanalian scene when completed and was a cruel joke on the old lady. The Robinson forces entered the cam paign with confidence and it must be admitted that some of the republicans lacked that. But the situation has changed. The very thorough and ex cellent campaign methods of Mr. McCarthy , Ohairuialu Fales , Secretory Jloeuigsteiu and other members of the committee have overcome any doubt that the republ cans may have had of success and caused the fusionists to fear for their ticket. This fear often pre cipitates desperate energy , however , nnd the republicans should allow no Blackening of their efforts and should keep the enemy on the move until the polls are closed on the evening of the 4th. A big victory is in sight , aud all that is necessary is.to keep the work on the move until the night of election. The World-Herald is very much wrought up because it fears that the American people are paying more for powder than they should. It gives evi dence that an endeavor will bo made to convert that into a national issue in ' 01. It is a vital point. So many people live by , through or on powder that any wrong done them by overcharging should bo righted at once. Robbed of their powder by the robber tariff , what would the poor common people do nud how would the full dinner pail be filled I ? It is a terrible situation , certainly. Adam Smith and Mrs. Amanda Smith- kins who used to have powder regularly , nnd all thor wanted , are now > d to do without. Not because they ire no money with which to pay the price but because they do not think the price IB right and they are depriving them selves for tbo sake of principle. Then again , Morgan , Rockefeller , Clark , the railroads and other largo capitalists and corporations that use powder freely in their blasting operations are being de prived of their scanty income through the operation of the tariff in boosting the price of powder. Surely nil the people will Join with the World-Herald in demanding free trade , if for no other reanon than to have the prlco of powder properly adjusted. Ititllroail InMuriKM ) IMnrnl , The story that J. II. Mlokey was the agreed candidate of the railroads Is still occasionally spread out before the readers of fUHloii newspapers The history of the hint republic-ail Htato con vention IH fri'Hh in ( lie public mind , and furniHhes its own contradiction of the story. Moro than usual interest had boon taken in the primary contestH over the state , and moro regularly elected dele gates wore actually present than at any previous state convention in the history of Nebraska. They wore there with in dividual preferences , and they remained in the convention hall until all the bnni- ness had been transacted. The gu bernatorial nomination was moro closely contested , and longer drawn out , than any previous contest for that pOHllion. If there WOH evidence of railroad preference it was shown in the attempt to nominate. ! . B. Dlnmnoro. This inlluonco , nidod by the Rosownter forces with a combination along the same lines as presented in the last legis lature , came within a few votes of nom inating the south Platte man. They fought for him desperately to the oiiil. In the meantime the north Platte country was lined up for Robertson of Norfolk , but was short of the required number of voted. The balance of power was contained in the votes hold by Mickey , JCSHOII and Black. The Hocoml choice of a majority of the north Platte delegates WUH evidently Paul .lessen , but they were uuablo to secure enough Black nnd Mickey votes to nominate him. After twelve ballots a stampede resulted in the nomination of Mickey. At this time the railroad influence , supported - ported by the Kosowator votes , still stood loyally by Dlnsmoro. The pretense on part of the fusion papers that Mickey is a railroad can didate , and that W. H. Thompson is "autirailroad" creates a laugh where the facts nro known. Mr. Thompson carried free passes over the Burlington , Elkhorn and Union Pacific roads pre vious to his nomination , nud ho carries them yet. The fnsionists are welcome to all the comforts they can got out of these facts. State Journal. TRAINS WRECKED AT DEPOT. One Person Killed and a Score Injured as Result of Collision.

A mcrclmt.t died at iBimlmn In the earlier part of liiHt century who had for many years denied hlniHclf nnd hl son every mipport except n crust of coarse bread. On n certain occasion ho was overtoinpted to buy n piece 01 chei'Hc : but , reproaching himself with extravagance- put the cheese Into n bottle nnd contented himself find obliged the boy to do the Hiime , with rubbing the crust against the bottle , enjoying the cheese In Imagination. One day , returning homo later than usual , the merchant found his BOD cat- Ing his criiHt , which he constantly rubbed - bed jiRulnst the door. "What are you about , you fool ? " was his exclamation. "It Is dinner time , father. You have the key ; so , as I could ' not open the door , I was rub bing my bread against it , as I could not to thu bottle. " " no . get "Cannot you go without cheeHo one day , you luxurious - little rascal ? You'll never bo rich. " And , the angry miser kicked the poor boy for not having been able to deny himself the Ideal gratification. Kind Word * Menu Much. Cultivate kindness of heart , think well of your fellow men , look with charity upon the shortcomings In their lives. Do a good turn for them as opportunity offers , and , finally , don't forget the kind word at the right time. How much n word of kindness , encouragement or appreciation means to others sometimes nnd how little It costs us to give itl We do not need to wait for some special occasion. When calamity over taken n friend , words of sympathy nnd encouragement are offered sincerely enough , yet in certain respects , as n matter of course. Such nn occasion calls for expression on our part , nnd wo naturally respond. But why wait for occasion ? Why not speak the kind word when there Is no special occa sion ? Philadelphia Ledccr. Strangers have been quite plentiful in Norfolk lately and in looking ovtr the different stocks of goods on sale have been very agreeably surprised at one store In particular over all the others , several traveling men who have visited every town of any importance in the state nn- auinioubly declared that they found no other store that compares with this one outside of Ornabaand Lincoln. One \\ns heard to nay , "the quality of the goods , the neat aud effective manner in which the entire stock is displayed shows an artistic development so dom found in western < stores , " and the Norfolk citizen to whom the statement was made , re plied , "yes aud there is another thing about it too , when yon buy anything here you get xvhut yon buy , yon don't get n bed with the wrong side rails , n dresser with sticky drawers , a' carpet with holes in it , a table with the wrong legs , nor a fibbing match on the part of the proprietor to straighten it out. If yon buy a $0.00 mattress and a $4 75 rocker yon will not discover next day that your neighbor bought the same kind for $3 QO and $2.75 , neither will kiy yon have any disputes or misunder standings afterwards about the prices OI payments. " This place is quite nn attraction in many ways aud Norfolk ladies seldom fail to take their visiting friends through this store showing it to them ns "one of the sights of Norfolk. " They all seem to be proud of it and on a trip of this kind recently a lady from Chicago was much surprised to find that she could have bought her piano al this store for just $155.00 loss money than she had lately paid for the same make : at homo , and while discussing it the lady friend with her said , "why just look at this chamber suit , why it's just exactly : the same as Tobey sells in Chicago cage and had it in his window marked , ' only $125.00. ' and here it is only $100.00. " "Yes" the other replied "Just look nt those rugs , $2.00 ! ! and $17 50 , they are just the same as Marshall Field sells for $27 00 and $21.00 , " and then the Norfolk lady who was with them said , "yes , they are just the same as my neighbor , Mrs. , went to Omaha and bought for $29.00 and $23 00 at a bargain sale. " Just then a little girl came in with a china salad bowl and said , "mamma sent this back , its got on old crack in it and wants yon to give her & good one. " On investigation it was found to have a competitor's price mark on it nnd the little girl was obliged to take it whore she could make an other Belection from those "sample bargains" you sometimes read about. This incident called attention to the china department and before the ladies loft they were unable to resist the temp tation to buy a few souvenirs to take back with them to Chicago to show their friends how they could buy goods way out in Norfolk cheaper than at home. Soon after a gentleman from Stanton called , bringing with him a Sears Roebuck catalogue but before ho left he bought a bill of furniture to the amount of $110.00 and found thnt after it was all figured up he had saved just enongh . to buy one of those fine smoke less lamps , found only at this store. By smokeless is meant the kind that the flames ] don't crawl up and fill your house full of soot nnd bad odor , and when ho loft ho presented the proprietor , Chas. II. Johnson , with his catalogue and said , "next time I want anything in this line I will know where to come.
