LINCOLN. Neb., Aug. 20 (Stpeclal.) The
double harness worn by the reformers or
self-styler? "progressive republlcsns," end
h self-styled 'Down ami Out rlub"of
tlila county, la galling and both sides are
liable to fly the traces at any time. In fact
neither aide la pulling in the collar r ght
now. In plain language a split haa re
curred In the bunch of lawyers who name!
the judicial ticket for the republic ana to
vote for and then tried to force them to
take It. Thla. bar ticket i a sche-ne
worked by Judge Lincoln Frot, as Is
generally known. At the meeting which
put up tha ticket, a resolution was a 1rpie 1
aettlng out that the judges should take n
hand In polltlra for the selection tf rtl.er
candidates, and to make this road g"Od ti
tha outsiders a committee cf lawyer was
' appointed to look after the Interest of the
made-to-order ticket. Cut now th rtp-irt
haa started that Judge Frost Is not ten
tent to tend to his own knitting, but has
gone out to try and name the ro .tnees fur
county judee, for sheriff and for coroner.
It la claimed, tha evidence against hlin !a
conclusive. ,
The fight on Frost Is to come from among
the lawyers who were tntlmnt'ly ansoi I
ated with him during the list cmt'pn
when he successfully -asmmed the rle of
political dictator. The ?nlit cf the re'or.n
ers Is a wide one and Judge KiiRlnnrf. hltn
aelf one of the orlr.tnnl reformers, Is
quoted as saying he will lake the I'timi
against his erstwhile chleftn'n. Jjd?e
England objected to the bar t'ck't being
forced down bis throat and the fad that
f Judge Frost was attempting to diktat the
other nominations has be.-n a lust rtra-.v.
The fight now starting of course will end
In a breakup of theHinclerstnm'.lnfc betw.v n
the old bunch of rent and f-rurious re
formers. Those opposing th.e i ar thkt
are lining up and already tales fir b. Ins

How Ka-t&.rn Protects
August and September are the month
when disease germs flourish. Tha water
la apt to be low and stagnant, th wea
ther hot and dry. All lhet surroundings
are very favorable to the formation and
development of disease germs.
But these disease germs must find
their way Into th body through the
mucous membrane, either of the nose,
throat, lungs or stomach. They are
taken through air, or water, or food. It
Is a well-known fact that disease germs
cannot pass through the mucous mem
branes Into the Interior of the body ex
cept the mucous membranes are slightly
deranged by catarrh. To keep the
mucous membranes Intact prevents the
entrance of disease germs Into the
system.
Ka-tar-no haa been In us many years
as a catarrh remedy. It ahould be taken
! by people who are subject to catarrh
during the disease germ period In order
to fortify against the action of disease
germs.
Ka-tar-no Is not 'recommended to kill
disease germs, but rather to make the
entrance of disease germs Into the body
Improbable. Those who take Ka-tar-nj
according to the directions on the bottle
I have little or no occasion to fear th en
croachments of disease germs so com
mon during August Snd September.

Warrant for t'renmery Man.
' lopi!tv Food Commissioner Johr.son has
giv n orders for the arrest of L. B. Ilan
: nlinon of O'Neill for a violation of the
I I'ure foc.d and dairy law. Hannlmon Is
' ;!ie nrent of a Bloux City creamery and
' he refused to permit a dnlry Inspector to
' try', his milk and refused' to j qualify
4 ;-r,der the law as a tester, .himself.
! Hannlmon, so It was reported to the food
.toruni!es!oner. said the pure food law was
jJlUe'aad Aat he did not' Intend o pay
j any attention to It and the Inspector could
not go Into his place of business for.'the
purpose cf makmg tests. When the mat-
ter was reported, to Mr. Johnson he at
j once wrote the county ' attorney of Holt
'county to arrest Hannlmon and-prosecute
him. When this arrest Is msde It will be
! the first to occur under the pur food
law, and in order that It may have a good
effect the case will be vigorously proee-
cuted.
The food commissioner expects to Insist
on an honest Inspection of milk and cream
because it means money to the man wno
sells It. Should the cream really test 8ft
per cent butter fat and the tester tell
the farmer It tests only 80 per cent, the
farmer Is out Just that roach money. It
Is for this reason he Is having me in
spectors test the cream being bought by
the creameries.

DEFENSE 0FEND SEAT HOG
Condartor Prefers Him to People
Who Make Frelabt Train of
' Street Car.
"This end seat hog that everybody's hol
lering about ain't the worst person that
rides on the Omaha cars." said the con
ductor with conviction. "Not by a long
shot. Id rather have a car full of end
seat hoc than one sest full of some of
the people that get on. The end seat hog
Is generally a well behaved person who Is
out to enjoy a ride and sits still decently
and doesn't give anyone any trouble. But
there are others.
"Now, this morning I was coming down
with a car Just comfortably filled. At
Cuming street a fat woman and a lanky
boy got on.
"She had a geranium In her hand that
had been taken up by the roots and was
wrapped In a newspaper. In the other
hand" she had a Jar of pickles, partly
wrapped In a newspaper, and It was drip
ping. I guess It was cracked or the top
wasn't screwed on tight. The boy had a
bird cage and a suit case, one of these
here paper ones, and It looked like it was
coming to pieces.
"They were both good-natured and the
fat woman climbed In over a couple of men
and women, leaving a trail of pickle Juice
over their clothes. The boy set his suit
case on the feet of tha men who were in
the seat and then looked amicably around
for a place somewhere else In the car.
Ha finally crawled over a lot of passen
gers with his bird cage and squeexed down
in a seat.
"Now, those people wers perfectly good
natured, but them two persons put that
whole car full of people In a bad humor.
When we got down beyond the viaduct on
Sixteenth street tha fat woman waved her
geranium plant at me.' I went forward and
she told me to be sure to let her off at
the railroad station that goes to Papllllon.
The last I saw of them they wer striking
crosslots for the station on Tenth street.
"Coming back that same trip a man got
on th car with a bundle of something.
He flopped It down on tha seat beside him.
The car was fairly well filled and I noticed
the people beginning to move about un
comfortably. I went up for the man's
fare and then I knew what it was. He
had fish In that package and It amelled
something fierce. Th people stuck their
heads out the side ot the car for air. The
man was reading a newspaper In some
foreign language and didn't seem to mind
th smell. I was Just gelng up to tell him
h could win a hero medal for saving a
car full of people by bringing hla bundle
bc ana Hanging n ouisme in rear plat-
form when he folded up his paper and got
off."

CUTICURA REMEDIES
A PERFECT SUCCESS
"I wish to let you know that I havs
used one set of Cuticura Itejneditn
on cake of Cuticura Soap, one box of
Cuticura, but two vials of Cuticura
Resolvent Pills which cost me a
dollar and twenty-five cents in all. For
year I have had what they call eczema,
I had an itching all over my body, and
when I would retire for tne night il
would keep me awake half the night,
and the more I would scratch, the mors
it would itch. I tried all kinds of rem
edies, but could get no relief. A friend
of mine told me to try the Cuticura
Remedies which I did, snd am very
glad I tried them, for I was completely
cured.' If any of my friends should
be troubled with the same disease, I
will cheerfully recommend the Cuticura
