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.

The formal arrangements for the burial
Of Robert Funahouser, who died yesterday
meriting at Princeton, N. J., have not yet
been made. Dr. Funkhouser ot bt. Louis,
a brother ot L. P. Funkhouser. the young
man's father, haa gone to Princeton and
will aocomtany the body to Lincoln. It
is not known what time the body will
reach Lincoln, but until this is known the
arrangements cannot be made.
Because of the unusual circumstances
Donneoted with the death of Robert Funk
Wiser. rr. J. M. Carnochan of Princeton
university requested permission of the
young man's father to perform a post
mortem examination to determine the ex
act cause of death. Robert Funkhouser
was apparently in the best of health Mon
day night Dr. Carnochan is of the belief
that peritonitis probably caused death, but
of this he was not sure. L. P. Funkhouser
wired tho physician to perform the post
mortem examination.
Princeton university will hold services in
memory of Mr. Funkhouser, depending
upon the time of the arrival of relatives
ftom Omaha aud St. Louis. Miss Elsie
rankhouser, a sister of the oung man. Is
now in Princeton, having arrived from
Philadelphia yesterday shortly after her
brother had expired.

LYONS A second crop of strawberries,

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.
