FUSION IN THE FIRST WARD
County and Judicial Candidates
Extol Each Others Virtues to
the Voters.

About fifty First ward fusionists met in
Forest hall Wednesday night and listened to
speeches by nominees on the county and
judicial tickets. The speakers devoted less
time to Issues vital to the campaign than
they did to each others merits, which they
found nnumerable.
The judicial candidates present were l.. |.
Abbott j. j. Bowes of Burt county and Carl
Wright. Mr.. Bowes spoke in defense of him
self regarding certain charges made against
him by Judge Scott which he declared en-
tirely false. He asked his hearers to pay
no attention to such attacks upon him.
Lysle Abbott told the crowd that republic
ans were born with a tendency to "get next
to" people with money, stock in corporations
and rubber-tired carriages. Given such ten
denotes and added to them such power as q
judge OF the district court has, he declared
that 1t was not hard to SEQ how their de-
cisions would go. A democrat, on the con-
trary, could not ue brought to favor one
class above another and he had the utmost
faith In the fusion nominees.
James w. Carr, candidate for county Judge
made few remarks in which he pointed to
the success julius Caesar made of his life as
reason why the fusion School board ticket
should be elected. His hearers had consid-
erable difficulty in making out the drift. OF
his talk, but about half OF them took 1t on
faith and applauded.
q. F.. Elsasser was introduced and men
toned his candidacy for county treasurer as
his first dip into politics and promised that
1t would be his last II he were defeated.
w. o. Gilbert spoke on the importance OF
having college graduates on the School board
and then Congressman Sutherland was called
upon. As the hour was late and half OF the
original audience had left he confined him
self to sounding campaign note for Bryan
and prophesying the election of Hoicomb.

against it, 1t could not have been ratified.
He quoted Aliens speech in the senate in
which the latter denounced the Filipinos as
"bloodthirsty savages" and declared that the
soldiers must remain there until the status
OF the Filipinos should be fixed by congress,
which has the sole power to fix it,
Major Warner vigorously denounced those
who had dissuaded the American boys from
enlisting and read from one of Lincolns ut
terances in denunciation Of those who had
pursued the same course during the civil
war, which utterance of the president whom
Bryan is now wont to quote quite freely, he
commended to the consideration of Bryan.

How to Make Nervous People.

HOW W NtdhG NSTNouS ICOplSs
"Amerca has become land Of nervous
emotionalists. largely owing to our sins
against the dietetic health laws of nature.
Only outdoor exercise in a cold climate
would enable vigorous individuals OF our
species to digest the viands forced upon
alimentary organs enfeebled by sedentary
occupations" writes Dr. Felix Oswald.
Brain workers must have different food
than day laborers. because brain work uses
up parts of the brain and nerve centres,
while physical labor uses up other parts OF
the body. A food for brain workers has
been prepared by scientific food makers and
called Grape Nuts. It is a pure, natural
food made from selected parts of field grains
known TO contain the natural phosphate OF
potash and other elements used by the sys-
tenn In rebuilding and repairing the brain
and nerve centers. This food is skillfully
cooked at the factory and is ready to be
served instantly either cold with cream, or
as hot breakfast dish with hot milk or
cream poured over it, All first-class gro

The large amount of litigation attending

turn of attaching each others goods to
keep them out of the hands of the ex-
position authorities, who are expected to
seize them for unpaid percentages. This
scheme cannot be worked in very many
instances, however, as the exposition has
already sworn out twenty-eight attach

ulately Thereafter. What was William Jen-
nings Bryan, the watchdog OF the people
doing then, and why did he not take steps
for the relief Of the people from the evils
OF the trusts? With scathing sarcasm the
speaker ridiculed, from a lawyers stand
point the remedies recently suggested by
Bryan. and declared that the only remedy
was an amendment to the constitution, OF
which he declared himself in favor.
Treatment of Imperialism.
Imperialism was handled at considerable
length. He showed that the proportion OF
sodiery to the citizenship OF the country
was so insignificant as to endanger no one
and called attention to the fact that the SOL
diers are the sons Of the citizens. He re-
called how this same cry had been heard
during the war, and afterward when Greeley
was opposing Grant and 1t was proclaimed
that Grant was to become dictator. Reading
from the democratic platform Of 1864
wherein the war was declared failure the
speaker said that he did not do 1t to arouse
prejudice.
II thank God that I have lived to see
the day when a president OF the United
States was grand enough to appoint Fitz,

As to expansion, the speaker said that Sc
far as the Philippines are concerned. th'
| country has already expanded. He was ar
anti-contractionist. He showed how tn,
same cry had been raised by some part,
against every territorial acquisition and how
Jefferson had been denounced as an ex
