The Fremont Tribune remarks that
"Edgar Howard's threat to open up on
Judce Barnes was only a bluff. There
was no place to begin."
The republican county ticket is com
posed of competent men for the different
offices and you will do well by giving it
your support at the polls.
The new office of county assessor m a
most important one. Ed. Lueschen has
had considerable experience along this
line, has good ideas relative to rating
real estate values, and will do.his duty
faithfully.
The crowd at the carnival grounds in
Omaha Thursday last is estimated to
have been 28,000, thus breaking all pre
vious records by about 1,000. Every
body in attendance seem to have had a
happy time.
Reedeb and Stinson will fill the judi
cial bench of this district better than it
has been filled for many years past. A
vote for them will be a vote for the wel
fare of the counties which they repre
sent. Schuyler Sun.
Exports of farm machinery from the
United States have increased from
$1,500,000 in 1883 to $21,000,000 in the
last fiscal year, France and Argentina
being the largest customers, each taking
$3,000,000 worth annually.
Evert man on the republican ticket
is worthy the strong support of the pub
lic. From judge of the supreme court
down, there is not a man who is not
honest and who would not represent the
interests of the public to the best possi
ble advantage.
W. J. Bbtan made three campaign
speeches in Ohio last weak and indorsed
Clark of that state for United States
senator. Clark is a "goldbug democrat"
aad supported that ticket for presiden
tial' electors, besides saying many mean
things about the free coinage of silver.

He entered the service of the Union
Pacific at the age of 10 aad has been with

move his family from Omaha, and it is
thought he will continue ia railroad
work ia another section of theeoantry.
Fjubmebs on the east side of the Mis
souri river at Plattsmoath are losing
many acres of valuable land by reason
of the river's current catting the land
away. The heaviest loss so far ia an
eighty acre farm which has been washed
completely away. Other properties have
also been heavily damaged. It is feared
that the entire section embraced by the
big bend above Henton station will be
swept away.

The state chemist has completed an
store of E. J. Kettering, a Lincoln gro
cer, and finds that although the goods
were branded "pure apple cider" vinegar,
the liquid was neither eider, malt aor
grain, and could" noC legally be sola ia
Nebraska, no matter how branded. Two
and one-half barrels of the stuff have
been ordered returned to the aaanufac
tarers, the Bwlington Vinegar aad
Pickle Works. State Food- Comnua
aioner Thompson will shortly make a
trip over the state, searching for goods
of this nature, and believes that a large
proportion if not an actual majority of
the so-called "pure apple cider" vinegar
will be found wanting in quality. -Com-missioner
Thompson is said to favor a
food law which would provide for the
immediate confiscation and destraction
of impure' products instead' of their
return to the soaker or wholesaler.
Thkee fellows who have been running
a feather renovating plant at Utica, the
past few weeks, according to the Seward
Blade, have gotten themselves into seri
ous trouble. Two of them are named
Johnson and the other Martin, and it
seems that their graft was in stealing
feathers from the patrons for whom they
did work. It is said that they would
take a tick of nice, fine feathers and
clean them, and then substitute about
half chicken feathers instead of the good
ones when the beds were returned to the
owners. One lady it is reported found a
chicken leg in her feathers, while another
patron found a chicken head in his
feather bed. Others began to investi
gate and found that in nearly every case
they had been robbed. Warrants have
been sworn out and the fellows arrested,
given a preliminary hearing and bound
over in the sum of $500 each for a future
hearing.
It may be pretty disagreeable to the
fuskmists to have it "rubbed in" that
their candidate for supreme judge has.
twice endorsed the republican candi
date, Judge J. B. Barnes, by appointing
him to the highest office and the most
responsible position in the gift of a su
preme judge, but the hard fact stands
out prominently, and every time a
fuakmist criticises Jndge Barnes as not
desirable for the position for which he is
a candidate, each criticism bears strong
ly and directly on the judgment of their
own candidate for the office. Judge
Barnes' ability as a commissioner of the
supreme court has never been ques
tioned, and all that has been brought
against him was as pertinent when the
fusion judges appointed him as court
commissioner as it is now. Norfolk
News.
Again immigration is flooding in upon
us from all parts of Europe says the
Saturday Evening Post. From the
Arctic circle to the Mediterranean.
Europeans of all languages, races and
nations are flocking toward America as
never before. Why? Because) the whole
world is fall of the noise of the prosper
ity of the common man in America his
political and mental prosperity as well
as the material prosperity. And every
man who toils in Europe and finds the
products of his toil swept into the coffers
of king or noble is dreaming of the land
where there is no king and no noble,
where rioh and poor toil alike, where
labor is not disgrace, but the essence
and vital qualification of honor. And
just there is our country's glory.
Telegraphic news from San Francisco
Monday stated that Senator C. H. Diet
rich who is a member of the senate com
mittee on public lands, has arrived there
after a four-months' visit to Alaska.
His object in visiting the territory was
to familiarize himself with the condi
tions there. He does not attach much
importance to the glowing reports of
Alaska's great agricultural possibilities
that have come here for years past. He
says that many thousands of dollars ex
pended at the government agricultural
experimental station at Sitka have not
established any agricultural facts about
the territory that have not been known
for fifty years.
Prof. L H. Briteli. if elected county
superintendent of schools will be thor
oughly competent to supervise the same.
On account of his having taught in
country districts and having had under
his supervision all grades up to and in
cluding the High school, he knows the
strong and weak places in the school
system, and is the better able to jndge
of the needs of the country schools. His
studious, moral and energetic habits will
soon find their influence in the school
room, should the voters place their con
fidence in his ability. There are few
men who put in more hard work for
school advancement than Prof. Briteli.
A statement showing the total enroll
ment of pupils in the government Indian
schools during the fiscal year ended
June 30, was made public last week at
the Indian bureau in Washington, D. C.
Daring the period mentioned there were
2457 enrolled with an average attend
ance of 20,876. In mission schools 3,780
little Indians were taught by denomi
national teachers. There were 101
Indiana in white publio schools. At all
the 306 schools devoted to Indian edaca
tion there were enrolled 28,411 pupils.
Roy Slattery of Chadron, Nebraska,
visiting former acquaintances sev
eral daya on his return home from
Omaha, and left for the west Monday.
The Slattery family were residents of
Colambas many yean ago, leaving here
for Chadron in 1885 near where they
lived on a farm for aeveral years. Ernest,
the oldest son, together with Dr. Harry
Arnold, Matie Wadeworth, and Adche
Rsasdell, were the first class to gradu
ate from the Columbus High achooL
Ernest is the coanty attorney, at Chad
ron, aad by profession is an attorney aad
land agent Cora Slattery ia married
and lives in South Dakota. Mrs. Slat
tery resides in Chadron and Roy man
ages the ranch which is located eight
miles from the town. He says they have
three Bailee of ditch with which to irri
gate the farm. The best farmers are bow
patting in irrigation ditches there, which
seems to be required in order to be cer
tain of a crop.
Ed.Eawamaa,wnoliTei aboat fifteen

The objection to raising it ia the dial

Unlike moat grain, it does not seem
necessary to change the seed of thia com,
as the risaamins sits aead the seed

and the yield does not asem to vary in
the least, on that account. Old settlera
who see the corn say it reauade them of

the farmer in this part of the state, aad
the aquaw corn' was their principal crop.
Rev. Cash of the Episcopal chnroa
here preached Saaday ia Trinity cathe
dral, Omaha, and the following notice of
the sermon was given in Moaday's Bee:
The Improvement of Oaea Tune and
Talents," was the theme of Rev.W. A.
Oaeha eermon at Triaity cathedral yes-"
terday morning. Hie teat was taken
from the' gospel, which reads: "See ye
then that ye walk circamepectly, not as

ers the absolute aeoesaity of aett-im-provetnent
To each individual God
has given certain talenta and has held
that person responsible for the manner
in which these talenta are need. Along
with the talenta a oertain anxmnt of
discretion is necessary in the fighting of
life'a battles to anvcceaafeJ name. Per
sona are gifted with different talenta,
but the one who deesas himself dwarfed
in comparison with another, may equal
ize nutters by application. Geaius ia
only the capacity for hard work. . With
out the improvement of tune aad talenta,
character .would retrograde aad the
inner life be dwarfed. The rounding
out of a symmetrical life is materially
assisted by the cultivation of one'a
whole nature. There be away, who per
mit oertain of their natural endowmenta
to languish and finally to sink into
atrophy, while others seek to build up
certain parte of their natures along lines
which are not conducive to either peace
of mind or health of body.''

Cheerfulness is a duty one owes to
oneself as well as to one'a neighbors,
for nothing so unfits one for the or
dinary duties of life or so quickly
brings on premature old age as a mo
rose temper, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
There are plenty of artificial aids to
cheerfulness within the reach of every
one who has real or imaginary cause
for 111 humor or n congenital tendency
to Burliness. When things don't go
right or your liver Is guilty of neglect
of duty strive systematically to achieve
good humor by repeating over and
over the best funny stories or bits of
humorous poetry you know. If con

On gateposts you will frequently find
n atone ball. Who would ever suppose
that the balls on the gateposts were
the heads of family enemies? It was
once the custom to stick your enemy's
gory head as a trophy on the gatepost.
On the gates of towns were stuck the
heads of traitorous persons. In old
London, for Instance, the bridge gate
and Temple Bar were always decorated
with ghastly relics of the kind, and the
memory of the custom survives on the
gateposts of modern suburban villas.

the most popular devices are those de
signed to benefit the people and meet
popular conditions, and one of the moat
interesting of these that has ever been
invented is the Dr. White Electric

increasing. Oar agents are rapidly be
coming rich selling these combs. They
