Earnest and enthusiastic politicians,

nominating Admiral Dewey for the
presidency long In advance OF the regu-

need men who will tell US the truth.
and tell It right away. Next year
comes the great presidential campaign
lin which few men will be able to tell
the truth. We need to get our bear

attitude toward the great questions
that are shaping themselves before our

those furnished by some one else. As
American citizens we ought to think
for ourselves and accept the teachings
OF honest and patriotic men-not the

there. 1t was also asserted by counsel for
Campbell that the money was not the prop

was denied and 1t WAS asserted that they
could not show that the money ever be-
longed to the senator. Judge Dempsey took
the matter under advsement

Smallpox situation Improves.

NEBRASKA CITY. Neb.. Jan. 29.-(Spe-
ciai.)-The smallpox situation in this city is
improving daily. Not a new case has de-
veloped since Dr. Towne left here a week
ago. The hospital contains four or fve cases.
all OF whom are convalescent and will be
discharged early this week. The citizens
Of Nebraska City regret that so much no.
toriety has been given this community dur
ing this ordeal by reason OF misrepresenta-
tons as to the efforts put forth by the Board
Of Health and city authorities to get the dis
ease under control. Some differences of
opinion as to the true nature OF the cpl
demic have existed among the physicians,
but from the time that DR.. Towne took
charge Of the situation he had the unquali-
fed cooperation Of every medical man in the
city. No pains or expense have been spared
to get the disease under thorough subjuga-
tion. Nearly 10000 vaccine points have been
shipped here since the first outbreak and 1t
is safe to assert that nearly three -fourths
of the entire population Of the city have
been successfully vaccinated. No further
spread of the disease is likely.
