NEMAHAIS FOR BAILEY.
Resolutions Adopted by Republican
Convention.

Seneca, Kan, Jan. pa more en-
thuSlastic or more harmonious Republic
can convention was never held in
Nemaha. county than the one which
met yesterday afternoon. 1t was I'M
aEimous for Governor Bailey and con-
demned the fight which is being made
upon him. 1t instructed the Nemaha
county delegates to the state conven-
ton to work for the denomination of
Governor Bailey, and adopted the fol-
lowing resolution:
BE it resolved by the Republicans
of Nemaha county, in convention as
sembled, That we heartily endorse the
administration of President Roosevelt
and hereby instruct the delegates this
day selected to attend the state and
congressional conventions to vote for
only such men as delegates to the ma
tional convention who are known to
be in favor of the nomination of Theo-
dore Roosevelt to succeed himself. And
be it
Resolved, That this convention, rep
resenting the overwhelming majority of
heartily endorses the administration of
our honored fellow citizen, Hon. Willis
J. Bailey. And we look with disfavOr
upon and deplore the unfair, un-Re-
publican and unwarranted fight that is
being made against him for a renomi-
nation. 1t is a source of pride to the
Republicans of this county that in the
face of the bitter fight that is being
waged against Governor Bailey, that
almost amounts to a persecution, no
charge of official or personal dishonesty
is made against him or his adninistra-
ton of the affairs of the state that are
under his immediate control. This IS
no surprise to his neighbors ann fri<>ds
who have known him for twenty-five
years, and we who know him best de-
clare to the Republicans of this state
that Governor Bailey in his private
life, as a citizen and a man, and in his
public life as a loyal Republican, is the
peer of any citizen of the common
wealth. and we earnestly feel that he
is entitled to the courtesy usually ac-
corded state officers for a second term ::
and that to deny him this recognition
would be unfair, unwiSe and unpolitic.
And we hereby instruct our delegation
to the state convention to use llhonor-
able means to secure his denomination.
Be it further
ssResolved, That the delegates to the
congressional convention this day Sc
Iected be instructed to support Judge
William L Stuart for congress. His
conduct upon the bench has demon
strated his worth as a public officer ano
a citizen. and we deem him eTninentlS
| fitted to represent the First congress
sional district in the halls of congress
''Pesolved. That we are in favor OF
the. bill introduced into the last legis-
lature that left the money raised fol
state taxes in the hands of the treas
urer of the county in which it was
| raised until it is needed for the DUR
! poses for which it was appropriated.
s.Resolved. That we are in favor OF

Although the police department is do
ing nothing whatever for the good OF
the order. it is a mistaken idea that it
is not being conducted"
The police department, as conduct
ed" by McCollum, is an interesting but
not very valuable institution. McCOl-
lum has one ironc1ad rule which is cal
culated to prevent the patrolman and
wayside jointist from telling each other
what they know. A patrolman is for
hidden to recognize a jointist in any
way, and never or ever speak to him
except 10 tell him he is under arrest.
There are some chances that this is a
wise provision on the part of the chief.
It might be rather embarrassing to the
heads of the police department should
the iointists tell all they know to the
commentator class of policemen. The
policeman might CLEAN information
which would make it rather impossible
for the heads of the force to get along
without his services unless he was will
ing to go. Jointists are not the only
people under the McCollum ban. When
ever a copper sees a new man in town,
the safest thing he can do is to go and
ask the chief whether or not he shall
speak as he passes by.

GIVE YOUR STOMACH
A NICE VACATION
Don't Do 1t By Starving 1t Either
Let Substitute Do the Work.

The old adage, "All work and no
play makes Jack a dull boy applies
just as we'll to the stomach, one of the
most important organs of the human
system, as it does to the man, him
self.
If your stomach is worn out and re-
bells against being further taxed be-
yond it's limit, the only sensible thing
you can do is to give it a rest. En-
ploy a substitute for a short time and
see if it will not more than repay you
in results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a will
ing and most efficient substitute. They
themselves digest every bit of food in
the stomach in Just the same way that
the stomach itself would, were it well.
They contain all the essential elements
that the gastric juice and other di-
gestive fluids Of the stomach contain
and actually act Just the same and do
just the same work as the natural
fluids would do, were the stomach well
and sound. They, therefore, relieve the
stomach, just as one workman relieves
another, and permit it to rest and re-
cuperate and regain it's normal health
and strength.
This vacation idea was suggested
by the letter of a prominent lawyer in
Chicago Read what he says: Il was
engaged in the most momentous under
taking of my life in bringing about
the coalition of certain great interests
that meant much to me as we'll as my
clients. It was not the work of days,
but of months, I was working night
and day almost, when at a very crit
zeal time my stomach went clear back
on me- The undue mental strain
brought it about and hurried up what
would have happened later on.
What I ate I had to literally force
down and that was a source of misery
as l had a sour stomach much of the
time. My head ached, I was sluggish
| and began to lose my ambition to carry
out my undertaking. It looked pretty
gloomy for me and I confided my plight
to one of my clients He had been cured
by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and al
once went down to a drug store and
brought a box I'D to the office.
4 had not taken a quarter of that
box before I found that they would dc
all the work my stomach ever did; and
as a rest or vacation was out of the
question for me, determined to give
my stomach a vacation l kept right
on taking the tablets and braced ur
and went ahead with my work with
renewed vigor, ate just as much as
ever did and carried out that undertake
ing to successful issue. 1 feel that
have Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to
thank for saving me the handsomest
fee ever received as well as my repu-
tation and last but not least my stom-
ach.''
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents box.

NATION DOESN'T LIKE 1T.
Says Prof Haworth's Report Is Not
Complete.

Assistant Auditor J. M Nation says
that the people of Erie, where he lives,
do not like it because Erie does not
show on the map of the gas regions
published in the recent report published
by Prof Haworth. of the state univer-
sity, on the mineral resources of Kan
s2=-
Mr.. Nation says that the state pays
$1,000 a year for a geological survey,
but scarcely any attention is given in
the recent report to gas and OIL while
number of towns that have had gas
for years are not shown on the map of
the gas belt at all.
A considerable portion of the report is
devoted to last summers flood and its
results. and to q discussion of a Dlan
for Strengthening the Kaw, and it is an
excellent study of the situation.
This report is now ready for general
distribution. The edition is limited
but what there is of it is free provid-
for it. Prof. Haworth is anxious, how
ever, that it shall go into the hands of
those who are interested in the matter.
He says:
My annual bulletin of the mineral
resources of Kansas for 1902 has just
been issued from the press. It's appear
ance was unavoidably delayed on ac-
count of a number of matters which
could not control. In the back part of
the report 1 included a tolerabiy
lengthy discussion of certain phases of
the recent flood along the Kansas river.
The report is for free distribution, but
we have no money to defray the ex-
spense of trs importation, and, therefore,
must depend upon the recipients paying
the sum of Z cents per copy when sent
through the mail It might be a good
plan to ship a box of them by freight
to some desirable party in Topeka who
would hand them out to the proper
persons. I was allowed only a small
number of this issue and consequently
they will not last long and should not
be distributed indiscrit lil%te1y but
should go to those who would make the
best use of them

the board will not be able to use that

THE board has found the latrine sys-

The school buildings equipped with this
