The populist of Custer county
were represented at the state con-
vention by one lone delegate, r.
E. Brega. ]. r. Dean went
along as a kind of body guard
but was not delegate. Breaga
went down to the convention an
anti-fusiohist but yielded to the
eloquence of Harrington and cast
his vote with the Bryan crowd.
A fight was sprung on motion
to notify the democrat convention
at Columbus of the nominees,
but the motion finally prevailed
and both conventions strange as
it may seem nominated the same
men at Bryan's dictations and
fusion is the slogan for 1903 and
the Denver platform of the anti
fusionists was laid on the table
until 1904. The present incum-
bent Chief Justice Sullivan was
renominated for member of the
Supreme Court. w. A. Jones of
Hastings and E. o. Weber of
Saunders county were nominated
for Regents to the State Univer-
sity. The attendance was very
small. Only two delegates OF
the 100 from Omaha were present
and other counties were poorly
represented by numbers and
many counties were not repre-
scented at all. 1t is reported that
the democrat convention at Co.
lumbus was much better repre-.
scented.

Fake Doctors

Notwithstanding the efforts of
the physicians organizations of
the county to protect the people
from fake doctors, it is reported
that several parties in the vicin-
ity of the Middle Loup, west
table and other localities have
been feeced out of SIS, 900 by fake
doctors, hailing from St. Joseph,
Mo-, and representing to be as
sociated with a cure all hospital,
known as the New York Hospital
of st. Joseph, Mo. The st. Jo-
seph Daily News says the hos
pital is bogus and that the whole
affair is fake. DR.. Frank o.

reports having reached the pres
ident OF the college, he started
an investigation and found the
fake was being worked by one of
his faculty, Frank o. Reynolds,
and a student by the name of A.
H. Shields. The resignation of
both these men were accepted,
and the whole scheme which was
fake from first to last exposed.
The travelling representatives
prevails on their victims to take
home treatment and has them
pay cash or give note for the

note is received they cash it at

understand have been well

Are the populist or their papers
going to make their campaign on
the fact that the republican
board raised the tax levy from
Z to ID mills? If so let them
proceed and the republicans
should meet it with school
house campaign and show the
people of the kind of officers the
pops elected as their representati-
yes to Office. Show them that after
the election, when they saw they
had been defeated, the board
cut the levey from IA to mills
and hired lot of clerks at the
expense of the county to change
the books that had already been
made up for the purpose of re-
ducing the finances below the
necessary requirements to meet
the expenses, that they might be
able to say they had lowered the
levy and then charge the incom-
ing republican board with ex-
travagence for not being able to
keep the levy down to less than
half what it had cost them to
run the county. 1T was re-
quested by petition" Yes you
can get at any time enough to
sign petition to cut a tax levy
as there are always persons who
do not look into the effect aud
only that they could save few
cents of tax.

1t is said of one of the pop
candidates for Office in this
county that when he is talking
to democrats that he tells them
that he has always been demo
crat and when talking to a pop
he expresses contempt for the
democrats. A fellow who can
successfully carry water on both
shoulders is too shfewd to entrust
with public Office.

In 1895 our exports of boots
and shoes were 1924 pairs; in
1902 the exports were 1899, 700
pairs, or nearly five times as
many. These figures do not
show much of burden from the
Tariff that exists on a certain
grade of hides. In fact, hides
are practically free when made
into shoes for export. --Grayling
