jHalladay of Kingsbury for auditor and
Sail of Brooklngt for attorney general are

The position of commissioner of acbool

Inch of Turner and Truran of Orant. A

Many Want the Superintendence.
(The largett field of candidates to go
Jto the convention for any place will be
)at seeking the nomination for tuperln
indent of public instruction. The leaders
thlt fight appear to be Nash of Lincoln
ad Lange of McCook. D. H. Brewtter of
an born hat announced himself at a can
Idate for this place, and several others
re being considered In that light. The
kndldacy of Schellenger of Edmunds re
vived a setback by tba refusal of his
unty convention to give him an endorse
tent. Indications point to the selection
I either Nash or Lange.
iThe opposition to the republicans will get
sirether under the bead of democratic.
.They quote long court decisions to show
hat the republican party bad no right to
'prevent any party, however small, to get
pon tha ticket." All thlt when that right
as never been abridged In the least. Any
aw hundred voters of the slate can get
nto the ticket aa a state organization, and
artalnly the leaden of the opposition fac
lona, who ware numeroua enough only a
bort time ago at to almost wrest control
rom tha republicans In the state, do not
sow admit that they bava ao dwindled to
point wbera they cannot find 200 followers
petition to have their namea placed on

What the oldtlrao populists will think
bout tha surrender of their leaders to tha
luff made by tba democrats will remain
be told when-the votes are counted, but
bat la where they hive landed after their
tfferent conferencea.
Their ticket will no doubt be ahaped by
trcumataneea after their convention meets.

Burget waa mistreating two babies and de
priving them of sufficient food. The prose
cuting witness, when asked as to tba amount
of food given the babies In the care of
Mrs. Burget, stated that they were fed
every two hours on "condensed milk, full
weight."
"She also gave the babies whisky and
sometimes paregoric," continued the wit
ness, who didn't know why tba medicine
waa given, unless It waa to keep the bablca
aaleep, so aa not to disturb the Inmates of
the bouse. "At other times," said tha
witness, "Mrs. Burget aeemed to lose her

placing her hands around ita waist, and
shake It good."

Grand Island Independent: Governor
Savage last evening announced hla with-
drawal from the race for the candidacy for
governor at the hands of tha republican
convention. In hia statement he admlta
that his candidacy was embarrassing to his
friends and to the republican party and he
withdraws his name. Hla friends state that
whll the promise has nothing to do with
the Bartley pardon, yet the promise waa
made that he would receive certain aupport
for renomtnatlon. This support failed for
the simple reason that the republicans over
promise did not have tha goods to deliver,
And so tba Savage career beglna to and.

Beatrice Exprevt: Oovernor Savage bat
Issued a card In which he states positively
that he will not be a candidate for re-elec
tlon. and this announcement should be
somewhat soothing to sundry editors who
have worked themselves up to a frenry
over the possibility that he would remain
In the race. The governor insists that he
did the right thing In the matter of the
Bartley pardon, and aaya that ha would do
the same thing again under like circum
stances, but be realtzea that the tempest
stirred up by hla action would be embar-
raaalng to tha party and his friends If he
were again a candidate, and In the Interest
of harmony and peace on earth he grace'
fully withdraws, "with malice toward none.
and charity for all." There Is no question
about this being the wlrett course, for the
republican party baa a atrong fight to make
In Nebraska thlt year, and It must have at
the head of the ticket a man who will be
acceptable to all the party voters. The
nomination of Mr. Savage would precipitate
a row that might be disastrous. The gov-
ernor will retire from the office with the
consciousness mat nis sammisiration nas

Ma excellent services will be better appre-

drawal of Governor Savage from the field
as a candidate for renomtnatlon Is a most
timely and sensible act, ao far as that gen
tleman la personally coucerned, there are
certain reasons why it Is to be regretted.

York Times: Governor Savage's formal
announcement that he would not be a can
didate for renomlnatlon waa no surprise t
those wbo are In a position to caat a horo
scope. He haa been greatly misrepresented
and misquoted, but the fact Is he has never
wanted to be governor at all. It Is dis
tasteful to blm and a burden that he will
gladly lay off. Thlnga have been said for
him that ha did .not say nor even Indorse,
and he haa been Injured more or less and
wounded deeply by tha Indiscretions of his
friends and by a perveralon of things he
actually did aay. Had he been a candidate
It would have been from deference to the
wlahe. of those near him and for the benefit
of hla dependents rather than for himself.
To him It would bava been a sacrifice. But
when the shrill cry of the country press
reached hla ear, after the Bartley pardon,
ba knew aa well aa anyone that he was not
an available candidate, and when the voice
of condemnation came up from almoat every
republican paper In the state, the governor
himself knew very well what it meant, even
though younger and less astute ones would
not listen. He baa made no threats of ven
geance, he haa never said any promises
were made him when he pardoned Bartley
nor that the pardon was granted with any
expectation of political reward or reward
of any kind. Ha baa not compromised him-
aelf In any of these ways and the rumorl
to that effect are groundless. He feels

ZAUTY is only the result of pure

rpaxkle of health. A woman ' features
oay be irregular if the glow of health is
in her face. But a well formed mouth
emitting a foul breath, eyes that have lost
their luster, cheeks scarred by lines of suf
fering show the parts that health and sick
ness play. Thousands of women are hag
gard and unlovely today because female
suffering is dragging out their very lives.
Disordered menstruation causes aggravated
cases of falling of the womb, leucorrhaea
and other female illness so fatal to woman
kind. Suppressed menses hold the waste
matter in the body and the blood becomes
impure. Profuse menstruation saps the
body of its strength. Wine of Cardui in
stitutes a regular flow, throwing off the
impurities from the blood and stopping all
wasting drains. Tha terrible bearing
down pains are the result of irregular
menses and Wine of Cardui will banish
them completely.

TRAINS TO LEAD VERY SOON
Trarklaylng am Elk horn Line Begins
and Will Be Poshed
Rnplilly.
General Manager Bldwell of the Fremont,
Elkhorn & Missouri Valley railroad an
nounced yesterday that tracklaylng on the
extension from Deadwood to Lead City In
South Dakota began this morning. The
track will be down In ten days and train
running Into Lead two weeks hence.
This marks the final step In the comple
tion of a bit of railroad which, despite Its
shortness. Involved some fine points In en
gineering snd some stupendous propositions
In grading. Three and one-half mllea ot
new road Is to be built and the expendi
ture Involved Is 1250.000, which Is at the
rate of more than 11 an Inch.
The line was begun last October, Immedi
ately after the Burlington purchaaed the
Black Hills A Fort Pierre road. The Elk
horn had since 1889 run Into Lead from
Piedmont over this road and when the Bur
lington took It was compelled to build In a
line of Ita own or stay out of the town
where the Homestake mines are located.
The maximum grade Is only 2H per cent,
which Is very mild considering the profile
of that country and the great difference
In the elevation ot the two cities. The
total mileage between the two by the
Elkhorn tracks Is five miles. For a mile
and a half It follows tha old narrow guage
into the hills on a third rail standard guage.
Then the new road begins, and for three
mllea and a half to the Lead end there la
a constant succession of huge cuts and
enormous fills, with no level ground, snd
everything practically solid rock. In all
166,000 cubic yarda of rock and dirt was
cut out, snd 140,000 cubic yards of filling
was done.
Completion of this road was expected by
February 15, but contractors underesti
mated the difficulties of the grading, and
this was not finished In time to avoid the
heavy spring snows, which then set It back
greatly. Many hundred men and teams
hsve been employed on the Job all along,
as it waa a rush matter from the first.

Canada.
Miss Markell, of London, Ontario, Can
adu, is a beautiful girl who knows what
suffering is and Wine of Cardui hag
brought her back to health. She is one of
the social favorites of her home and her
recovery to health has permitted her to en
joy the company of her many friends in
stead of lying on a bed of sickness and
suffering. For the health she now eniovs
I she gives credit to Wine of Cardui. Shs
writes i
"I have found Vine of Cardui an excel'
lent remedy for female trouble. I suffered
for three years with terrible bcartor-down
pain at the menstrual period. I could
hardly stand on my feet and waa never real
well. Vlat of Cardui was tha only medi
cine that I could depend on to do ma any
good, as I tried several with no success.
Wine of Cardui cured me and I have now
enjoyed perfect health for two years, and
give you all tha credit for I know yon de
serve it,"
Wine of Cardui is the only medicine
thousands of women can depend on because
in their trials of pain and distress it is the
only medicine that brought them relief.
For a young girl it is tha best remedy to
guide her over the shoals of womanhood by
starting the menstrual flow in a healthy
and natural manner. Menstruation started
right is very easy to keep regular through
the years of mature womanhood. Then
the "change of life" need not be feared.
Thus Wine of Cardui is woman's beat re
lief from youth to old age.
Wine of Cardui not only prevents female
troubles but it cures the most obstinate
rasea when they are deeply seated. Miss
Markell 's experience with Wine of Cardui
is enough to give any woman confidence
