the state. but for the benefit Of this partic-
ular hotel.
In the employ Of the committee is a
young man by the name OF Haynes. He is
a gentleman in every respect, is a high
school graduate and has taken two years
in the State university. He has lived in
the state since childhood and was so much
respected in his former home, Beatrice.
that he was under a standing invitation to
sing with the choir in one OF the fashion
able churches. So much for his standing
and citizenship. Now, this hotel where the
republican committee has its headquarters
is the same one which once refused Bishop
Turner a place in the dining room, on the
ground that he belonged to an inferior race
and was a descendant OF the monkey tribe.
II seems the hotel man has got another one
Of his aristocratic spells. He refuses Mr..
Haynes, the employe OF the republican state
committee, the poor privileges Of riding
upstairs in the hotel elevator. In spite Of
protests he persists in the refusal. He
thinks that the descendants of monkeys
ought to climb instead Of ride"
Now. the duty of the Afro-American cit
liens is plain. They should unite in a de-
mand that the headquarters of the repub-
lican committee be removed from the Lin
dell hotel and they should not cease in
the demand until the committee takes
action. The writer believes that every col
ored man in the state of Nebraska owes
allegiance to the republican party, but there
should be something mutual in the alliance,
The colored voters should be treated as
men and not as monkeys. II they are not
good enough to ride in the elevator at the
republican headquarters, they are not good
enough to vote the ticket. II this matter
is brought properly and forcibly before
the leaders OF the party l believe prompt
action will be taken. The republican lead
ers are men. They are not simpletons
and they are not owned by a hotel-keeper.
They want the colored vote and they do
not want to see the race needlessly in
suited.
Here in Washington the colored man is
recognized by the republicans. Our breth-
rem hold many places in the departments
and receive proper treatment. There is no
place where local prejudice is stronger than
here at the capital and yet the colored
employees of the departments and of the re-
publican committees are accorded good
treatment and ride in the elevators OF the
palatial hotels. Call on the republican
party to either protect the colored voters
or dispense with their support.

watches Must he Accurate.

The general managers and general super
intendents of the different lines of the Bur-
lington have jointly issued instructions to
all train and engine men relative to the
watches carried by them. This is done in
order to remind the railroad men OF the i'm
p~ortance attached to the carrying of watches
which are absolutely correct.
Effective February l new and stringent
regulations will prevail relative to the in
s~pection of watches carried by conductors,
engineers, yard conductors and yard mast
ers. Employees in these departments will be
required to submit their watches every three
months for examination as to condition.
Certificates will be issued by the official
watch examiner If the timepieces are found
in a satisfactory state. The certificate for
tho previous quarter will be taken UP by
the examiner and forwarded to the division
superintendent. Employees will be compelled
to submit their watches for comparison every
week. This new rule does not vary espe-
cially from the regulations now in force, but
will be more carefully observed hereafter.

New contracting Agent.

Julius R~osenzweig has entered upon his
duties as contracting freight agent OF the
Illinois Central railroad in this city. His
promotion to this position is a matter OF
congratulation to his many friends and
comes as a reward for earnest, faithful serv-
ice in the freight department of the Omaha
& ST. Louis road. MIR. Rosenzweig has been
contracting agent under Assistant General
Freight Agent George NJ, Entrikin Of the
Omaha & st. Louis for several years and
has established a reputation as a hustler.

BOARD DIVIDES ITS SAVINGS
Surplus in Treasury is Divided
Among Commercial Men and
officers Are Elected.

At a meeting OF the Board OF Trade yes
terday afternoon a dividend of $40 per share
was declared, the fourth in the history of
the club. The books of the club show that
a saving of nearly $4,000 has been made
during the last three years, compared with
a similar period previous to 1896. This
economy in running expenses is largely re-
sponsible for the dividends, which were I'M
known previous to 1898. In that year one
dividend was declared and in 1899 two, maxi
ing a total of $3.50.
The following officers were reelected for
the ensuing year: James E. Boyd, presi-
dent; John S. Brady, first vice president;
s.. A.. McWhorter, second vice president;
H. F.. Cady, treasurer; l.. C. Harding, Sec
rotary. The annual meeting of the stock
holders was postponed until next Monday

Common Sense

is possessed by most people who think
for themselves. The average man knows
that if his blood is impure he feels sick
all over. He has headache, nausea, bad
taste in the mouth, is costive and can
put no energy into his work. The kid.
neys are designed to purify the blood,
but if diseased and tired out they can
not do it. Extra work is thrown on the
liver and lungs, and they too become di.
seased under the additional burden until
the whole body is completely poisoned.
What is to be done! Common sense says
put the kidneys, the blood purifying or.
gans, in good health, and do it at once

10 THE MOST
 POP(jL AR LADY.
Tabor Will Present an E1egrnt
 $35 Sewing Machine.

Tabor, the Grocer, will make a Christmas present to the most popular lady of Green Forest and vicinity, of an elegant drop head Sewing Machine, which retails for S35. The manner in which he has decided to determine who is entitled to this elegant and use- ful present is as follows: With each 25-cent cash purchase of Groceries in his store, he will present a blank ticket which may be voted by any person for any lady they please. Or he will give one vote to any person who clips the blank coupon from his ad- ver6sment in THE TRIBUNE, when presented at his store by the per- son voting it.
 When the tickets are procured they should be filled out and turned in at his store. The final count will be made by three Green Forest ladies who will be entirely disinterested in the contest. The lady receiving the largest num- Der of votes shall be declared entitled to the present. In order that the contest may be carried on intelligently,, the, names of the ladies being voted1 upon and the number of votes each have received will be pulp lished from week to week until the contest is over.
 Now, it will cost no one cent to vote in this contest as much as. they please, the only consider ation being that you buy your groceries of Tabor, and procure the blank tickets. lie guaran- tees to seil you as good goods at as low and lover prices than any enc else will sell them. He keeps everything in the Staple and Fancy Grocery line, fresh, clean and neat.
 For any further information call at Tabor's grocery, where, the Sewing Machine is now om exhibition.

 Contractor Cooney, who has been lay ing off for some time, will start up with full force Sept and finish up his work He has yet two miles of grading from the Kings River bridge this way.
 The chances seem to be good that all other work will be completed long be- fore daylight is seen through the tun- nel. Of course, no track can be laid until construction trains can move up the line.
 J. w. Skinner has completed his work north of Berryville and will move his camp to Heard spring and complete the grading begun by O'Conner, which con- meets with the work recently completed by Dan Sweeney. There is some three miles of grading to be finished at that point.
 The progress of the work on the tun- nel has been somewhat retarded by re- cent rains, which have caused consider able falling in of the walls of the ap- breaches. A gentleman who visited the tunnel Monday says that the west end is now open 130 feet and the east end 10 feet. So far on both ends the work is through solid rock.
