tlio advantage of tlio people who do
licnd upon corn.
It IH not possible ( o keep people
from talking nhout the wontlior , when
the weather furnishes tlio sensation
of the dny or series of dn.VH.
Tlioro la such n thing as tlin conn-
try requiring ; good corn wouthor nnd
tlm woutlior man IH again showing un
Inclination to give too much of n good

It begins to look as though HuBSlu
means business In the movement for
pence. With the nppolntmnnt of M.
Wltto , as chief plenipotentiary , the Im
portant inovo has liccn iniulo ,
If you want to see something worth
seeing nnd cannot take a trip to the
exposition just Blanco at the growing
crops that Nebraska IH husy at matur
ity for the markets of the world.
It lookn very much as though M.
Wltto had effected terms of peace
with the crar. If ho IB now as suc
cessful with the Japanese envoys , the
lighting will soon ho declared off In
the far cast.
. Russia will recollect that Spain had
Home of that vaunted Cant Ulan prldo
to give It scruples regarding the ad
vancing of terms of peace , lint when
n country Is whipped and whipped had
in the war 70110 the subordinating of
Its pride comes as a matter of se
quence.
The members of the Omaha Y. M.
C. A. have made a winning In their
attempt to secure a now building for
the association which Is to cost a
quarter of a million. Omaha push
gets to the front very frequently and
especially does It seem to bo In evi
dence this summer.
There may ho a misery In the ex
cessive heat for the people In all
parts of the state , hut the rest can
voluntarily extend tholr heartfelt sym
pathies to the people of the Second
district who were compelled to close
ix campaign nnd hustle out the voters
on one of the hottest days of the
spasm.
The Cubans arc up and coming with
considerable evidence of enterprise.
Contracts for several trolley lines out
of Havana have been lot which Is add
ed evidence that the people of that
island do not Intend to bo long classed
with territories that consider the ox
nnd the cart as good enough means of
locomotion.
If there was ever a time when the
democrats might have hoped to win
lu the Second district It was at the
Tuesday's special election. If the re <
publicans deifinnd fair weather In No
vember to make a winning , it is just
ns logical a conclusion that coo !
cool weather in .Inly would be a re
qulrement.
The Neligh plan of holding Snnda >
services in a giove and having the lay
men do some of the preaching shonli
overcome the inclination of people to
remain away from church when it Is
lield In a stuffy building and by the
same speaker that has been hearc
throughout the rest of the year or sev
eral years.
A number of Nebraska people hcli
stock in the St. Louis bank that has
had a sensational career and Ignomlnl
ous ending. Nebraska people who can
afford to take such ventures can gen
crally afford to lose , and should have
kept their money at home In the safe
and sane Institutions that the state of
fers In abundance.
A job on the Panama canal lacks
Inducements just now , but in Januar >
or February It Is more than likely that
the commission will be flooded with
applications for work , If Uncle Sam
or Canada ever expect to dig a ditch
connecting the Arctic oceans , now
\\onlil be n good time to Induce men
o take up the work.
Portland IH feeling very clever over
the good attendance ( hut Is being re
corded at the l wis and Clark exposi
tion and IK prepared to have the mun-
lier of people attending knock the
spots off of any prevloiiH attendance nt
any fair of Its class that the country
lias ever known It Is evident that the
count people have money and are not
afraid to let loose of It when there
IH something worth seeing nt tholr
doors.
The president says that the con
struction of the Panama ennui must
proceed with vigor , and what the pres
ident says very frequently happens ,
and the peislmlsts might just IIH well
lake to cover now as later In the prog
ress of const ruction when they will
ho foiced down anil out. The presi
dent Is not the only one to believe that
the canal will be built In the shorteHt
possible lime. American energy and
Ingenuity will submit to no other re-
Hlllt.
The showing up of the advertise-
iiientH of patent medicines for the re
lief of cholera , cramps and Hlnillar
complalnlH should ho all the warning
that IH necosnnry to warn the people
to observe caution In Iho matter of
eating and drinking and enforce safe
rules for the protection of the little
people who have not arrived at. the
ago of dlHcretlon. The hot weather ,
following tlin Hooded conditions of
the past several months makes care
essential to the health.
Tom Lnwson must bo credited with
being shrewd nnd foresighted In one
particular and that Is that he del civ
mined to make his first personal ap
peal to the people of the west. The
way he has been received shows that
he has not underrated the Importance
of courting the people of a section of
the country that have demonstrated
power nnd force In dealing with per-
ploving problems growing out of the
government , and "the system" Is Infer
for some of the worst that can bo giv
en ,
The Madison county republicans
have been summoned to meet In Battle -
tlo Crook on September ( ? . While the
date Is yet a good month and a half
away there la interest In what the ,
convention may do nnd some of the
politicians are already laying their
plans to gather In the positions of
fered. As far as the average voter is
concerned , however , the interest Is
not yet at fever heat , but ho will be
content to leave his plans for marking
his ballot until after the conventions
luivo said their say.
The cz.ar has almost as much to fear
evidently from his own warships as he
lias to fear from the war vessels of
{
the Japanese and to make them safe
Is removing the arms nnd giving the
sailors Indefinite leaves of nbsence. ,
It Is a remarkable spectacle in a mod
ern country pretending to some degree
of clvlll/atlon and laying claim to dls- i
Unction as one of the world's powers.
It will take a revolution of some sort
to bring Russia up on Its general average
i
erage as a factor in world's affairs. A
1
largo population , alone , has been dem
onstrated to bo insufllclcnt.
A couple of do7.en of the people who
led In the rioting at Odessa have been
hung nnd it Is said that another batch 1
of seventeen Is to be publicly executed.
The czar Is evidently coming to the
conclusion that the only good Russians
are dead Russians nnd he Is helping
Japan to dispose of the surplus men
of his country quite energetically.
The manifest spirit of the common
people for more freedom nnd Indepen
dence does not seem to down , however -
over , and It may be expected that two
determined men will rise up eventual
ly to take the place of one who Is
killed in fighting for their rights.
President Roosevelt Is said to not
be disposed to take a hand In the se
lection of his successor In the white
house. Ho is willing to leave that to
his party and his countrymen , but If
he does so unqualifiedly the man chos
en for the coming four year term will
ho none other than Roosevelt himself.
The people mighthe capable of choos
ing a successor , then again they
might mnko a mistake , but with
Roosevelt In the office they will feel
certain that the best thing for the
country and all Its Interests will have
been accomplished. A united and
spontaneous demand for Roosevelt
might keep him in the executive chair
us it forced him to take the nomina
tion for the vice presidency against
his expressed wishes.
There Is more cata-rh In this sec
tion of the country than all other dis
eases put together , and until the last
few years was supposed to be Incur
able. For n great many years doctors
pronounced It a local disease nnd prescribed - '
scribed local remedies , and by con
stantly falling to cure with local treat
ment , pronounced It Incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a con
stitutional disease and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment Hall's

The Canadians have been trampling
on the ling of this great and glorious
republic , but It IH said that a free-born
citizen of thlH name great republic
gave them Just nnd unprovoked cause
to Insult the starry banner , ami It IH
possible that It will bo permitted to
paHH hecauso of thin. The people of
the United States want and demand
the respect of foreigners for their oni-
blem , but are conservative enough not
to demand them to bow down before
some of the braggarts nnd hulldo/.ers
that nre sometimes the product of the
country that should beget nothing but
Iho best. If the country was to take
tip troubles of this kind It would liavo
lln hands full constantly and would
some lime bo compelled to tliruslutlie
world to have the llag receive any
sort of respect. The country must de
pend upon Justice and honor rather
than braggadocio to keep Its llag with
in the respect of the people of the
world.

It Is said that the government has
made ' good Russians of thirty members
of ' the crow of the Knlaz Potemkine
who surrendered. Mutinous crews
will undoubtedly understand that In
the future there will bo more honor
nnd : glory in fighting and going down
with the ship.

ers prefer One Minute Cough Cure :
First , It Is absolutely harmless ; second
end , It tastes good children love It ;
third , It cures coughs , croup nnd
whooping cough when other remedies

Some relief should be experienced
temperance people to learn that the
loin , Kansas , dynamiter was once sent
to the Insane asylum , was confined
several times at his own request and
at the time of his crime was out on
parole from a lunatic asylum. He for
merly resided at Falls City where he
contemplated starting a temperance
paper but his thought on the subject
unbalanced his mind. Rational tem
perance people will be glad to have
the cause relieved of the odium nt
tachlng to the Kansas man's action
and the showing of irresponsibility on
the part of Carrie Nation would cause
similar relief.
Bilious Bill was ngltaten ,
And was much debilitated.
People said he had consumption.
That was everyone's presumption.
When he learned what was the matter
Bill made all the doctors scatter.
