TWELFTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT.
Call For Convention To Nominate a Can
dldate for Judge.

The republican electors of the
Twelfth Judicial District of the
State of Nebraska are hereby re-
quested to send delegates from
the several counties comprising
said district to meet in conven-
tion in the city of Grand Island,
Neb., on Tuesday, August Is,
1908, at two o'clock p. M, for the
purpose OF placing in nomination
candidate for judge of said dis
trict to be voted for at the next
general election, and for the

than his legal salary or where a
pop county official drew less than
the law allowed him. If the
clerks have been paid better
wages since republican officials
have been in Office, populist
board has made the rate.
Whether they have been paid
more we do not know, but if they
have not they should have been.
Wages in all other work has been
increased. There is not a BUSH
ness man in Broken Bow or a
farmer in Custer County that
employees labor but pays from a
third to a half more wages per
day week or month than he did
when this county, state and ma
ton were under the control OF
free trade parties.

The populist county conven-
ton in it's resolutions arraigned
the republican administration
for raising the tax levy from
seven to fourteen mills. But
they neglected to state that the
levy was made necessary by the
previous levy made by the pop
administration being inadequate
to meet the current expenses of
the county. The fact that the
pops lowered the levy after the
election when the returns showed
a majority of the board would be
republican with the object OF
embarrassing the incoming board
was not mentioned.

CAM,l.Aw W.

Attorney Simon Cameron of Broken
Bow, was seen upon our streets several
days last week.
The old Alliance elevator at this place,
which has been receiving a thorough
overhauling is now nearing completion,
and will again soon be open for business.
Camp meeting begins in the grove at
this place on Thursday of this week, and
good time is, anticipated although it is
a very busy time of the year for every
body.
And still our carpenters have more
work than they eau do, and carpenters
are in demand all over the country.
Anyone who can drive nail is a carpen-
ter these days.
While roping COW Monday morning,
John Mcdonald was thrown down in
some manner, receiving fracture of the
left collar bone, which will lay him up
for few weeks at least.
Prof. B. B. Hawthorne, who will be the
principal of the Galloway schools this
winter, came over from Broken Bow the
early part of the week, and leased the
Mrs. Conley property, where he and his
daughter will live during the school
year.
The Evangelical church, the Episcopal
church and rectory, and the Seven Val
leys Bank have each received coat of
paint the past week. There are a large
number of buildings left in the city
which would put on a much improved
appearance should they be treated like
wise.
1t appears that Galloway is doomed SO
far as having another game of ball is con-
cerned. Every team heard from so far
wants all the way from $50 to $40 to
come here and play. If they think that
Galloway wants a game bad enough to
pay for it the price of league game,
they are certainly mistaken. Neither is
she going to pay the salaries of Broken
Bows and and Ansley's imported pitch
ers. If they want game we will meet
them half way, but that is as far as we
will go.

We view with deep solicitude,
the losing struggle of the agri-
cultural class against their in
evitable fate, under the govern
ment as at present administered.
Pop resolutions.
In the face of the prosperous
conditions of the agricultural
class lof the country as compared
with the days when the pops and
democrats were in power we pre-
dict that the farmers of Custer
county will not take this matter
very serious.

Custer county Is rapidly becom-
ing a farming country, and the
men who have the interests of
the county at heart are protest
ing against the use of word as
applied to Custer county farms
that suggests to them only sage
brush and long horned cattle.
ga quarter of centure ago, "
says the Galloway Courier, "much
blood was spilled in abolishing
ranches in Custer county, to make
room for farms, and while the
county is we'll adapted for ranches
farms also flourish here. A ranch
suggests semi-civilized condi-
ton, and no one associates
ranches with schools and churches
and beautiful homes. You may
have hundred cattle grazing
on your thousand-acre farm, but
call it a farm, and don't lead
strangers to think this is coun-
try of greasers and cowboys by
calling it ranch. State Jour-
nal.

Pops Resort TO Old Tactics.

In the early history of the pop
party they succeeded admirably
by posing as reformers and by
making declarations of economy
and reduction of salaries. But it
was observed when they were
elected to Office they were not
different from all others and in
varibly demanded all the law al
lowed them.
The denuciation of the republi-
can administration for paying for
a Surety Co. bond for the present
incumbent of the Office of treasur-
er is one of the hobbies on which
they again hope to fool the peo-
pie and ride into power.
Their ex-treasurer, M. E.
Schneringer, who has been nom
mated for the position again
took the cue and stated in his
speech of acceptance that should
he be elected he would furnish
his own bond.
From the resolution denounc-
ing the republican admlnistra-
ton for paying for Mr.. Georges

bond and Mr. Schneringers state
ment that he would furnish his
own bond it is evident that in
both cases the object was to pre-
judice the taxpayers against both
Mr.. George and the republican
party for an act that neither are
guilty.
Mr.. George, before entering
upon the duties of his Office
secured bond, as good as any
personal bond the county has
ever had. The board declined to
consider a personal bond and re-
quested the treasurer elect to get
Surty Co. bond, which would
cost $285, instead. Mr.. George
declined to do it. Finally COM
promise was reached in the fol-
lowing motion, viz: "Moved by
Conley, seconded by Brechbuhl
that the county of Custer agree
to pay one half the cost of pro-
curing a surety bond for the county
treasurer elect for the year 1902.
The motion carried" Just pre-
vious to this, motion to COMPEL
the treasurer elect, to furnish a
Surety bond was voted down, the
majority voting against the mo-
tion were republicans.
The experience of the pop
board in realizing on personal
bonds of officers of their faith
was sufficient to make them feel
that it would be cheaper for the
county to pay for surety bond
than try to collect from per-
sonal bond. Let that be as it
may. Mr.. George is not to
blame because the board declined
to consider personal bond which
he had secured. The last bond
which is for 1908 was paid for in
full by pop board. If censore
is due, neither Mr.. George nor
the republican party are respon-
sible, as Mr.. George offered to
furnish bond without cost to
the county and the majority of
the present board which paid the
full amount of the surety bond
are populists.
The offer of the pop candidate
is made for political buncombe.

Custer County is in the Center and
Leads All Others.

The esteemed Kearney Hub
has finally been compelled to adj
init that Kearney is not the point
around which the rest of the
state revolves. In its issue OF
the 18th inst it had the following
under the head, Nebraska News
Notes." "The Geographical
Center of Nebraska is located in
Custer County" For the further
information of the Hub we wish
to state that Broken Bow is in the
nterof Custer County.
Custer County boasts of not
only beiag the Geographical GEN.
ter of the state, but claims to
have more schools, more school
districts and more good land than
any other county in the state.
In addition to our own claims
the recent report of the state
bureau of labor put Custe
county in the lead of all other
counties in the state in cattle
hogs, horses and mules.
The following is CLEANED from
the report:
According to the report which
has been compiled from the as
SCISSORS returns, the number
of cattle in the state is 2,161, 773.
Custer county takes the lead in
this species of property, having
70, $50. Lincoln county follows
with 4O,477, while Cedar county
in the northern section of the
state is third in the list with
49,, 7O2 cattle.
While Nebraska is a great corn
state, the great excess of cattle
over hogs would indicate that
the grazing industry is still
greater, since there are l, 1872, 264
hogs as compared with the r.
161, 773 cattle. AS to hogs Custer
county again leads off with the
largest number, having AZ, 549 of
that species of property, while
Cunning county, one of the Oldest
counties, comes a close second,
having 1918 hogs. Richardson
county is third having 38,773,
while Platte county has 38, 364
hogs, little and big.
Kimball county boasts of the
largest number of sheep, having
81, 365 out of total of 21S, III
for the entire state. This is one
eighth of the total number.
Platte county is again a ribbon
winner as the second in the list
with 2O,275, followed by Perkins
with 20,217.
The total number of horses
and mules in the state is $50, 917.
OF this valuable species of pro-
perty the largest share is again
claimed by Custer county with
1860. Custer seems to be in
class by itself, since the next
highest county is Gage county
with only 1888: Saunders
county claims 11,424 horses and

Judge Brewer in discussing the
growing prevalence of lynching
argues that it is due to delays in
legal executions caused by APP
peals. He recommends that a
good remedy would be to repeal
the law which provides for an
appeal from the finding of the
district courts in criminal cases.
Such a remedy might answer in
some cases where the community
is generally law-abiding. But in
the south where lynching OF
negros for rape is so common the
public we'll knows that there is
no escape for a negro in the
courts of the south if proven
guilty of rape of white woman
Yet 1ynching of the supposed
criminal is the rule. If that was
the only offence for which lynch
ing is practiced there might be
some excuse. But the practice
, is becoming too general botf
north and south without REGARD
to the heniouess of the crime
The only way to put stop to il
is to enforce the law against
those engaged in it few times

A Brilliant Preachers wit,

Or all the brilliant preachers of
modern times no one shone more re-.
splendently in conversation than the
eloquent Baptist minister, Robert
Hail. says the Saturday Evening
Post. 1t is remarkable that, while
in his writings hardly CLEAN of wit
or humor is to be found, yet in the
social circle he was distinguished by
his terse and pungent sayings. All
his life he was martyr to an excru
ciating disease, and his wittiest say.
ings were uttered whon he was with
ing with sharp pain. A lady at a
friends house found him 80 lost in
thought that she vsinly assayed to
engage him in conversation. AT
length, impatient of his reveries, she
said tiippantly, in alluslon to Miss
Steel to whom he was engaged to be
married:
"Ah, Sir, if we had but polished
steel here, we might secure some of
your attention; but"
MADAM" interrupted tho now
reused preacher, "make yourself
quite easy; if you are not polished
steel, you are at least polished brass!"
Hall had an intense abhorrence of
religious cant to which he gave ex.
preston sometimes in the most scorch
ing terms. A young minister, who
was visiting ahim, spent day in
signing, ever and anon begging par
don for his suspirations, and saying
that they were caused by grief that
be had 81 hard heart. When the
lamentations, which Hall had borne
patiently the first day, were resumed
at breakfast on the second, he said
"Why, sir, don't be 80 cast down
remember the compensating princi
pie, aud be thankful and still"
"Compensatlng principles" OK
claimed the young man; "what cal
compensate for hard heart ?'
"Why, soft head, to be sure!'
replied Hall, who if rude, had Ger

A Word to
Nursing
Mothers

1t is a we'll known clinical fact
that babies who depend wholly on
mothers milk never have cholera,
and are exempt from two-thirds
the ailments which afflict infants.
Some inkling to this has checked
the resort to artificial foods and
begun to make it "good form for
every mother to nurse her own
baby - when she can.
Some try it, and grow weak and
sick under the strain. With
others the milk flow is insufficient,
and the poor baby is at last given
over to the tender mercies of the
milkman with his corn fodder, and
stale slops, and worse.
If any mother within ten miles
of our store reads this, we want to
give them a hint. Try Vinol.
There are many mothers who have
found thai it enabled them to take
more nourishment, restored their
strength, and made baby healthy,
hearty, and happy.
Vinol not only supports the
mothers strength but transmits
to the babe the foundation for a
healthy childhood.
Vinol contains no dangerous
drugs. We are willing to tell you
just what is in it and give you the
money back if it don't help you.
Don't doubt, try it.
