It arrests the cough, allays irritation of the throat, and relieves congestion of the lungs in a day. It is safe and pleasant to take, and never disappoints. 25c and 50c Dr. A. Heintz and Pollock & Co. 1 Platte County politics is the worst jumbled up mess imaginable. Aside from the "old reliable" Journal, we be lieve there is no paper supporting their party ticket. They are all bolting and working for individual candidates on all tickets. Albion Newa At the city democratic mass meeting Tuesday night of last week John Graf was nominated for assessor; H. J. Hudson, justice; Ed. Rossiter and Andy Campbell, constables. The city central committee: First ward, John Graf; Second, O. L. Baker; Third, A. R. Foster. There are hundreds of democratic voters in Platte county who are not taking kindly to the fact that the pop ulists seem to have captured their party organization. Seeing that the repub lican ticket is unusually good throughout, they will support it strongly. Tuber's Buckeye Pile Ointment gives instant relief. It allays inflammation and heals.

Heintz and Pollock & Co. 1 Tho rain here of Sunday and Sun day night, we suppose, has entirely relieved the situation, and put the ground in most excellent 6hape. The streams and wells will also be replen ished. We have not had such a long continued dry spell in quite a while. Are you lacking in strength and en ergy? Are you nervous, despondent, irritable, bilious, constipated and gener al! run down in health? If so, your liver is torpid, and a few doses of Hero ine will cure you. Herbine has no equal as a health restorer. Dr. A. Heintz and Pollock & Co. 1 Miss Maggie Schintaffer of Lincoln, and Mr. Robert W. Kiser of St. Louis, Mo., were married at the home of Frank C. Green, 1C2G Washington St, Lincoln, October 7. They will reside in St. Louis. The bride has many friends in this city who knew her when the Green family lived here. Last week at the McPherson lake east of here, where, a small party from this city were encamped, fishing and hunting, a very large bird of the species Grallatores was brought down by the unerring aim of Carle McKinnie, the spread of its wings being fivo feet nine and one-half inches. The history club met last Wednesday evening at L. Gemini's, the first meeting of the year. Mrs. Brindley was elected president, Miss Phoebe Gerrard, secre tary, Rev. Rogers leader, and Rev. Weed, assistant leader. The circle will meet regularly Wednesday evenings, this week with Miss Minnie Becker. The republican State central com mittee have furnished us with a cut of the republican emblem, the old "Abe Lincoln Eagle," carried through the war by the Eighth Wisconsin. Familiarize yourself with its looks, and don't forget that iu the state of Nebraska this year it is the emblem of the Grand Republican Party. Let any candid citizen contrast re publican administration of public affairs with others, and he will invariably con clude that they have merits not fonnd in like degree with other parties. Two recent administrations that have passed into history, that of Harrison and Cleve land, are near-by and strong illustra tions of this assertion. I. Glnckof the school board, a mem ber of the committee on supplies, tells us that he found there was a combina tion of the dealers in coal here to hold up prices to the school board, bnt that the board succeeded finally in getting Watsonburg, Colorado, coal, claimed to be equally as good as Rock Springs, for 85.75 a ton, as against 87 for Rock Springs. J. N. Kilian, county judge, asks ns to notify the secretaries of the different caucuses of each political party to call at the county judge's office for blank cer tificates of recommendation for judges and clerks of election; that said certifi cates must be filled out, signed by the chairmen and secretaries and filed with the county judge on or before Friday, October 29, 1897, 4 o'clock p. m. Mr. Duffy, editor of the Columbus Democrat, was billed to speak at Cres ton Friday night, but we are informed that there was no audience present. The common people are about as well posted as the uncommon people on the present political situation in Platte county, and are going to vote pretty much as they please. The democrats are especially enraged at the dictation of bosses. Last Monday evening Miss Lillie Laudeman had a close call for the other country. While having some teeth ex tracted, "without pain," she was over come by the anesthetic used and for two hours was unconscious. It was thought at one time that all efforts to revive her would fail, but after two hours of hard work by the doctor she was finally brought to consciousness. She was taken home and has since been very ill, but is now improving. St. Edward items in Albion News. A tramp came to one of the houses of our city the other day, asked for something to eat, was given a piece of good, wholesome bread Bpread with good, honest jelly put up by the women of the household (ordinary cow butter is now scarce and high-priced), and The Journal is informed that after walking a few feet away from the house, he threw the bread away as unfit for bis royal highness to eat. The owners of the Great Eastern canal have decided to raise the price of perpetual water rights to 87.50 per acre on January 1. We have always thought that the water was sold cheap and we think now that those who are going to buy water at all had better get a hustle on themselves or prepare to pay extra for waiting. Mrs. Fred Gottschalk and sister Miss Annie Hoehen, of Co lumbus were visitors here last week. Monroe Republican. It isn't worth while to quarrel with your neighbor over public matters, but if you can quietly talk with them about the candidates, from Judge Post of the supreme court, down, yon and they may find that you will agree oftener than you now think possible as to the su perior merits of the entire republican ticket. Republicans have a faculty for government that amounts almost to genius, and in this campaign they have done just a little better than usual in their selections. We hear of one Columbus man who spent ten dollars on neckties the other day. There were others, also, who didn't invest so much, but enough, all told, to make quite a snug sum for a few minutes talk of the fakir. It is wonderful how many men can be taken in on a deal of that kind, biting at the bait, something seemingly offered for nothing. The fakir's method was to fold up a 810 bill and tuck it into the tie, then sell the tie for 82.50, and when the purchaser took bill out it was found to be one dollar in stead of ten. The Franklin (Ind.), Star, speaking of Supt. Williams' nomination for super iutendency of our couuty schools, says concerning him: "A more capable gen tleman cannot be found for the office. Mr. Williams has been a teacher and an executive othcer of schools Tor many years and he is specially equipped in all that would tend to efficiency for such a position. To this are his qualities as a thoughtful, christian gentleman, and an upright and honorable citizen. The Star would be glad to hear of his eleva tion to the position to which he aspires." The Omaha Bee keeps at the front in the newspaper field, having recently enlarged its borders, now giving 12 pages for each week day except Monday, in ad dition to the usual twenty-page Sunday issue. An editor is like an individual in that he is entitled to his honest opinions and the free expression of them: but we know of men who hate Rosewater's poli tics and scarcely ever read his editorials, but take the Bee for its news. It is one of the great papers of the world, and Ne braska may well be proud of it. Next year will doubtless be the greatest year iu the Bee's history. Judge Kilian and E. Pohl and Hen ry Hnntemann and P. II. Bender speak German, and that seems to be a wofnl matter with some prejudiced people, but why should it be? Most of us are either foreign-born or only a few removes therefrom a grandfather or great grandfather, perhaps. The American citizen does not have to be a native. He may be a German, an Irishman, a Welsh man, an Englishman or a Scandinavian. The main thing, when a candidate for office, is that he be qualified for the dis charge of its duties, and that he be obedient to the laws of this land, his adopted country. F. Jaeggi, John Horst, I. Sibbern sen, Frank Falbanm and A, Jaeggi have organized themselves into a corporation with John Horst as president, Frank Falbanm as secretary, and A, Jaeggi as business manager, The name of the corporation is to be "Elevator Roller Mills Company.'' The nature of the business to be transacted is the buying, storing, grinding, manufacturing, ship ping and selling all kinds of grain and the manufactured products thereof, and the authorized stock 8100,000. Tho company are prepared to utilize their plant to the full extent of its capacity. In fact, they will make preparations for much more storage room, expecting to keep the mill going as it is now, night and day. They now use about four thousand bushels of wheat a week and have a most excellent business. The Knights and Ladies of Securi ty, Columbus Council No. 549, met for the first time in Odd Fellows' ball Sat- urday evening last. There were fifty- three charter members present, and all enjoyed themselves with light refresh ments, speeches and a good social time generally. The following officers were elected: President, A. E. Strauss; 1st vice president, Jennie M. CcCann; 2d, Mary A. Stevenson; prelate, Rev. C. A. Weed; corresponding secretary, A. C. Cunningham; financial secretary, G. W. Duffy; treasurer, Mary F. Way; conduc tor, Gertrude Alger; guard, Ida G. Meagher; sentinel, A. J. Smith. The trustees will be elected at tho meeting next Saturday evening at the same place, at which time the officers elect will be installed. John A. Dempster, deputy national president and state or ganizer, will be the installing officer. The Council starts out under favorable circumstances. In a campaign of "principle" it seems to us that the prime advocates and cen tral figures should keep a little prin ciple in sight and practice a little of it. We are thinking at present of the Columbus Argus, which says in speaking of our fellow-citizen, Mr. Robison, that "Judge Robison is a good lawyer and exceptionally well qualified for the posi tion of connty judge. Xow the truth hurts no one. Judge Robison is a good citizen and we believe an honest man. That is as far as his qualifications for the office of county judge go. He is not a good lawyer and we do not believe he ever pretended to be. In fact he is no lawyer at all, and what little knowl edge he has of the law, and the basis of the appelation "judge," which the Argus bestows upon him, was acquired by serving a term as justice of the peace here in the early days. His knowledge of law attained there may possibly have been added to somewhat during his ex perience of about a year aa collection agent for the Citizens Bank of this place.

George Lehman started Monday for Dea Moines, Iowa, to attend tho wedding today of his niece, Miss Salomo Kahler, who has many friends iu Columbus. Mrs. Anna Warren is visiting relatives in Lincoln. Wo notice by the Lincoln Journal that she helped in a musical en tertainment given by a lodge in that city. Carle T.

Phillips when clerk retained for his assistauts in the office for 1890 8 2100 00 1891 2100 00 1S1J2 2500 00 lOJo ... .... )jj Ull Mr. Pohl retained for assistants in 1896, 81920 and for three quarters of 1897, 81470, and yet campaigners for Phillips are charging Pohl's administra tion of tho office as being expensive in assistants. In each of the six years from '90 to 5 inclusive, Mr. Phillips received 8200 (81200 in nil) for preparing assessors' booKs, and these amounts are not. on the fee book, but are extra allowances to him. In '9G and 97 Mr. Pohl received 8100 each year, and placed the 6ame on the fee book. Iu 92 to '95 inclusive, Phillips receiv ed 8102.50, an average of 840.02 each year, for correcting assessors' books, and did not place the same on tho foe hook; also in 'M and 95 for settlement with township collectors 8100 not put on fee book. For like service in 'WJ and 17 Mr. Pohl received 880 and placed the same on the fee book. For correcting assessors' bookB Mr. Pohl received but 8100 for two years, and placed the same on tho fee book. Taxpayers who have been in tho clerk's office may have noticed the road map on tho north wall Mr. Phillips got 8150 of the county for that. Mr. Phillips received from tho county each year 84 for acting as county clerk for commissioner on election returns, while Mr. Pohl did that work and con sidered it a part of his duty as county clerk, without extra pay. Pohl's administration has been far more economical than that of Phillips. The wedding of Charles L. Stillman and Miss Maud Naylor last Wednesday at high noon at the Presbyterian church was one of the most fashionable the Columbus people have witnessed in a long time. The church was crowded with guests before the noon hour, many standing to witness the ceremony. Young lady friends of the bride had decorated the church with festoons of evergreen, and the pulpit was a perfect bank of plants, among which were seated tho young lady friends of tho bride. The room was darkened until the bridal party arrived, when tho elec tric lights were turned on, making a beautiful effect. Junior Post, as page, carrying the wedding ring on a golden tray, led the procession, tho three little tlower girls, Clara Covert, Celeste Weed and Media Searles, following. Miss Mayme Mallalieu of Kearney and Carl Hoehen and Miss Lucy Taylor and Al bert Stillman camo next followed by the bride and groom, who woro met at the altar by tho pastor, Rev. Hayes, who performed tho wedding ceremony, after which the bride and groom led the pro cession from the church to tho home of tho bride's parents, where a large crowd of friends were received. Mi6s Lora Becher played Mendelssohn's wedding march before and after the ceremony. The happy conple took the afternoon train for Chicago, where they will pass several days. Mr. Stillman is one among many young men who make a success in business. Left suddenly when young with all the cares of an established busi ness entirely with him, he has met every responsibility and has shown an enter prise equal to the occasion. Miss Nay lor is a Platte connty girl and is of a cheerful, kindly disposition, who makes friends and a pleasant home wherever she may be. Friends all wish them a happy and prosperous journey through life. The Osceola Record of Thursday has this to say of a gentleman well known to many of our Columbus readers: G. Stull, of Marengo, HI, arrived at Osceola last week to look after the crop on his farm in Clear Creek precinct. He was a resident of the county for many years, moving to Marengo about nine years ago. He reports it very dry in his part of Illi nois with crops 6hort, and not nearly so good as here. Stand up for Nebraska. Cattle for Sale. J. L. Sturgeon & Son are receiving as occasion demands, stock cattle which they will have for sale at their ranch near the city. If you wish good cattle see them at once. If they don't have on hand what will please you, they can be sure to sat isfy you in a few days at farthest. They are in the business for good, and will make business mutually satisfactory. 5Jttwnw?tmfmiw?ftwm!tTm?ttmtmwi SE CLOAKS AND JACKETS.

Boots and SHOES. goods, inense amine mama TELEGRAM POINTS. The Telegram, the chief democratic paper in the county, continues to sup port a number of republican candidates, because it believes they are the best. We give some sample paragraphs. Editor Gruenther, of Platte Center, was in the city Saturday, and was quite an object of interest to the "tricksters and ringsters," who used heroic meas ures to force the gentleman back into line for the "gang" who have done their level best the past several months to break up and disrupt the democratic party in the interest of the pops. But the gang didn't get much comfort from Gruenther. A- Fred Jewell was in Columbus on Sunday after taking a jaunt through other portions of tho county for tho purpose ot observation, m conversa tion with somo gentlemen hero, Mr. Jewell expressed himself as of the opin ion that the Saunders-Phillips combine was already beaten in the county and nothing could save 'em. And what is more, Mr. Jewell didn't seem to mourn over it a bit. He evidently has a mem ory. When the smoke of battle clears away in November and the Saunders Phillips combine is found defeated, the political atmosphere of Platte county will bo once more pure and healthy, and democrats will have reason to rejoice at the merited rebuke administered to tho unscrupulous schemers led by that wor thy pair. P. H. Bender, our candidate for sher iff, was in the city on Sunday. The popularity of Mr. Bender's candidacy is growing every day, as he becomes bettor known to the voters. No bankers or collection agents are out working for him which is certainly something in his favor. We regard Mr. Bender's elec tion as already assured. DEMOCHA TIC ENDORSEMENT. Tho following extracts are from the Grand Island Anzeiger, a German nows paper, with democratic proclivities, and speak for themselves: Our candidate for supreme judge, who is to be elected this fall, as Judge Post's term expires, was W. H. Thompson of Grand Island, who also was tho choice of all democrats and pops. What means and machinations wero used to defeat him and nominate Sullivan every one knows. What object the machine bad in view in nominating him is hardly known. In former times the mnchino came out openly and did not fear day light. Since the convention we have come to the conclusion to support Judge Post, even if our party Unds fault with us. Tho present judge is competent, as he has proven in his last term. We wish to repeat that ours was never a strict party paper, always supporting the best man. The nomination of Snllivau is not after our choice, and we declare our selves in favor of Judge Post, as we did at his former election, knowing him to be competent and able. In judging public persons we ought to be fair enough to give a good officer credit for services rendered, without re gard to his party. Those who know Judge Post and his record on the bench must admit that he was a good judge. He is thoroughly versed in law and a hard worker. Judge Post is a friend of the Germans, and our peoplo of Nebras ka, regardless of politics, owo him a good word in this campaign. It is not our business to dictate to our readers whom they should vote for, but part of our business is to recommend those who have served faithfully, and such a faith ful servant is Judge Post, and we cannot speak too highly of him. He has never shown himself as a much employed pol itician who travels over the state to make himself popular, but remains at his work year after year, trusting that his record will speak for him. Judge Post is a good worker, whom we can rely on, one who is never led by his temper or prejudice. We predict a liberal support from the Germans of the state. Ladies, Attention !
