It is again reported thnt the coal
etrlko is settled. 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.

dian Agent McChesney of Rosebud ,
forbidding the sale of wood. On Sun-

refused nnd he went away with a very
bad heart.
He was not seen again until Wednes-
lay evening , when ho suddenly ap
peared again at the school house with
a shotgun. Ho walked Into the school
room and shot the teacher In the

Shaw managed it for , him , leasing It
to the stockmen for hay and grazing

ncctlon with the management of Iris
property. Bear then fled and was ar
rested at Bonsteel by the civil author
Itles.

A OliiMonoiiK Ili ) ' .
A mcrclmt.t died at iBimlmn In the
earlier part of liiHt century who had
for many years denied hlniHclf nnd hl

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. "
