Ponds for Cn.mpn.tan. The question of campaign funds has be come, prominent again. It Is always the most complex problem party managers have to face. Tha democratlo state committee Organised a club at Grand Island for the purpose of getting money, but sof ar as Is evidenced has not pushed the plan with anything like the fervor of the Bryan'Vol unteers In l!Xfl, when more than $10,000 was raised In this manner. The republican state committee Is working short handed and Is wasting no money. In fact, it has to economize ir. many ways to make both ends meet. Chairman Huaenotter has sent out an appeal for aid to prominent repub licans and others interested in the plat form. Chairman Anderson of the county committee finds it most difficult to secure funds. Chairman Bishop has said nothing. The republican state committee Is spend ing next to nothing on speakers. The can didates are filling tha platform dates with but few exceptions and the committee puts Its time and attention to detail work and also to mappln gout the routes for speak ers who go out under tho management of the committee. The democratlo state 00 ra mi t tee is using 'ho other speakers than eCngressman Hitchcock, Ralph Clark, Mayor Dahlman and Governor Shallen toerger, Cowgrlll Remain a tame. The oondlUon of William II. Cowglll, state railway oommlsiloner, who was atrlokea with paralysis Saturday, continues praollcally unchanged. At noon today Mr. CowglU's general condition showed a very light Improvement, but the change was go slight as to give atendlng physicians na basis for any more encouraging state ment than those made during the last few days. Mr. Cowglll Is able to swallow aomewhat easier today than at any time since Saturday. ' lavas) Confeaaea.

LYONS A second crop of strawberries, and two crops of potatoes from the same patch of ground ,are now exhibited In Lyons as trophies of our soil's production and the freak of cold, dry weather we had late last spring. William Strelo dug a crop of potatoes last July, selling them for J1.50 per bushel; he Immediately plnnted more potatoes In the very same hills without further preparation of the soil than that obtained by the digging of the first crop. This was July 9, and now he has harvested his second crop as good as the first. Warren Everett and Mr. Har rison Walte. have each raised a second crop of strawberries from the same patch the latter In quantities sufficient for the table for several days. Now we suggest that our scientific agriculturists take a hint from nature's freak and make two crops grow whers one grew before. We want any person who suffers with biliousness, constipation, indigestion or any liver or blood ailment to try our Paw-Paw pills. We guarantee thev will purify the blood and put tha liver nd stomach Into a healthful condition and will positively cure biliousness and constipation, or we will refund your money.
