Report That Wellington Has Cap
tured Osborne County.

A communication to the State Jour-
nal from Downs, Osborne county, says:
'E. w. Wellington, candidate for con-
gress in the Sixth district, was in Downs
today. and it is generally conceded by
the leading Republicans of osborne
county that he will receive the solid
de1ega ton from this county.
If this statement is correct Mr.. Wei
lington has achieved a victory in his
fight against Congressman Reeder. Mr..
Wellington stated in an interview in
the State Journal a short time ago that
Osborne county would be the battle
ground in which the contest would be
fought out. The Osborne County Farm
err, one of the leading Republican pa
pers of the Sixth district and the Re-
publican organ of Osborne county. has
been against Wellington and for Reed
err If Mr.. wellington has already over
come this opposition he has done much
towards winning his fight.
The average man may not like work,
but he approves of it. This is shown
by the crowds which stand around and
look on when work is being done in
public places.-Kansas City Journal.

remnants Of silknscaf were the only arti-
cles found on the skeleton by which an
Identification could be made.
