Governor Aldrich
is for La Follette
for President
FTtEMONT, Oct. 2. "I am for Senator
La Follette for president of the United
States and I don't care who knows it,"
Is Governor's Aldrlch's reply addressed
to Ross Hammond, Internal revenue col-
' lector for Nebraska to editorial comment
in Hammond's paper, published in this
' city.
"I don't think that President Taft
should be nominated and I am entitled
to that belief. He still has an oppor
tunity to do something by way of re
deeming the platform pledges of his
party and If he does there may be no
' occasion for any other candidate, but If
he does not do better in the future than
he has done in the past, he not only will
not be nominated, but he will be de
feated if nominated."
Governor Aldrich'a letter was called
forth by editorial comment by Ham
mond on the governor's policy. The
governor was quoted as saying in a
recent speech in Sioux City that Ne
braska was for La Follette and that
Taft had no friends In this state. He
has denied this Interview and also that
he was Intending to attend a meeting of
Im Follette supporters in Chicago and
that he would make La Follette speeches
In the state.

"While attending school at Lebanon, Ohio,
In 18S-", there was a small-pox scare, and
we were all vaccinated. Presumably from
Impure virus used, I became afflicted with
bolls, which lasted for about
two years, when the affliction
auumed the form of an
eczema on my face, the lower
part of my face being in
flamed most of the time.
There would be water-blisters
JTr rise up, and open, ana
LA I wlierever the water would
IVY7T V touch it would bum. and
cause another one to rise.
After the blister would open,
the place would scab over,
and would bum and Itch co
as to be almost unbearable at tlws. In this
way the sores would (pread from one place to
another, bark and forth over the whole of my
upper lip and chin, and at times tao whele
lower part of my face would be a solid core.
Thii condition continued (or four or five years,
without getting any better, and In fact ret
worse all the time, so much to tbatmywlfe
bnrame alarmed lest it prove fatal.
" During til this time of bolls and eczema,
I doctored with the best phyaiclani of this
Fart of the country, but to no avail. Finally
decided to try Cuticura Remedici, which I
did, taking the Cuticura Resolvent inter
rally, applying the Cuticv.ra Ointment to
the sort, and using the Cuticura Eoep for
wahing. Ia a very short time I began to
notice Improvements, and continued to use
the Cutk-ura Remedies until within leu then
a year I was well acain, and have not had a
recurrence of the trouble since, which Is over
twraty years. I have recommended Cuticura
Remedies to otheis ever since, and have great
faltb In them as remedies for skin diceisea."

Private Arthur 8. Cooper of Reaver
City will te court-martialed nt Camp
John H. Mickey before the National
Guards break camp this week. A court
for the military trial has been named
and taking of evidence In a formal man-
tier will begin "Wednesday or Thursday.
The specific charge against Cooper will
be that of felonious and malicious assault
on Corporal James J. Cameron. The
principals are of company B of the r-ei-ond
regiment. The court for the trial
has been selected by Brlgndler General
Storch. In command of the ramp, and is:
Major Paul of the Second regiment,
Captain Elsasser of the First, Captain
Hall of the Second, Lieutenant orria oi
the First. Lieutenant Maples of the Sec
ond. The Judge advocate general win

Cameron's condition has Improved dur
ing the last few days and he is now able
to walk about, but his wounds are still
painful. It is generally believed among
the militiamen of the ranks that Cooper
will be acquitted, as the evidence of eye
witnesses tends to show that the stab
bing was provoked. There is no sign of
animosity between Cooper and Cameron
and each awaits the trial, which will be
the first of Its kind among Nebraska
militia, with llttlo apparent nterest.
