weeks, Peru and Brazil have de-

Republicans throughout the
country seem much gratified by
the news that William Randolph
Hearst intends to remain in the
democratic party.
The republican party celebrates
its fiftieth jubilee this year.
During the last forty-three years
the democracy has had complete
control of the government for the
brief period of two years. Re-
member the date by recalling the
panic of 1893.
Lew Dockstader, the minstrel,
dressed up as President Roose-
welt, was photographed by NOV
ing pictures in the act of taking
off his hat to negro. Lew nc
doubt hoped to sell the plates to
Senator German for campaign
material, but the police authori-
ties induced him to give them up.

The LOuiSins Purchase Exposition.
A Pleasant Trip from Broken Bow to st.
Louis. The Greatest Exposition
Ever Witnessed Ia the
United States.

1t was the privilege of the edi-
tor of the REPUBLICAN to join
with the members of the state
Editorial Association in visiting
the Louisiana Purchase EXPOSE
ton at St. Louis last week, where
the State, National and Worlds
Press Congress were held. The
trip from Nebraska was made
over the b. d Nj. railroads,
through the courtisie of the
officials of the B. & M. symstem.
The train that leaves Broken
Bow after 10 o'clock a. III. reaches
the Union Depot at St. Louis
about 7 o'clock next morning.
1t is through train and but
short stops are made at the prin-
cipal station and no change of
cars is necessary. On arriving
at the Union Depot one can go
direct to the Eposition grounds
by street cars, stopping either at
the "Inside Inn" or Christian
Endeavor Hotel. The latter is
outside the grounds and only
about 100 feet from one of the
entrance gates. Either of these
hotels are very conveniently and
comfortably arranged for enter
tanning a large number OF guests.
The rates on the European
plan is considerably less at the
Christian Endeavor Hotel than
at the ''Inside In" but is not so
conveniently located to the ex-
position building as the Inside
Inn. Once there you are made
to feel at home.
Any lady or child, once she
has secured transportation over
the b. & M. will have no occasion
to fear as she will reach her
destination safely as there is no
chance to get lost or to be modest
ed on the route.
THE ROUTE.
The natural scenery at this
season of the year, especially to
one who resides in a city or town
is worth the trip. The prosper
Gus appearance of the farm
homes, the large orchards, the
Towering trees and plants that
decorate the yards, the fine stock
grazing on the timothy, clover
and blue grass pastures, the FREE
quent streams of water lined with
timber, and the many villages,
towns and cities through which
one passes is an inspiration to
the soul that will help to make
life sweater and affords an oppor-
tunity to acquire, in a very short
time at small cost volums of
knowledge that can not be as
definitely acquired in any other
way.
THE EXPOSITION.
1t was our privilege to visit
the Worlds Fair at Chicago and
the Trans-Mississippi Exposition
at Omaha. Either were highly
creditable and we'll worth the
time and means required to see
them.
The Louisiana Purchase Elk
position has cost an amount near
ly if not quite equal to both the
others mentioned and the EXPOSE
ton is on a much larger scale
than were either of them. The
grounds covered by it is 1,24O
acres, while at Chicago there
were but 633 acres and at Omaha
$50 acres. The Louisiana Elk
position has 1913 acres under root
in the big exhibit palaces. The

exhibits such as the Giant Bird
Cage, the Mining Gulch, etc,
which occupies 100 acres, pre-
sents an interesting study.
One feature that is pleasing to
everyone is that many exhibits
are eXemplitied by moving pic
lures. For instance in the Fish
cry building where the usual eX-
hibits of fish is exhibited in every
form is also exhibited the hatch
cries. Moving pictures gives
the process of extracting the
spawn from the live fish, fish
catching, dressing and packing,
giving an exact reproduction of
the business as conducted in
wholesale. Many other indus
tries have the process thus pre-
Sented.
SHOW BUILDINGS.
The exhibit structures consist
of fourteen grand places covering
from four to 81 acres of ground,
besides many minor buildings.
The 40 acres of Phillipian build
ings, the three Alaska buildings,
physical culture building, lndian
school, etc, are in this class.
In additionI to the building
crowded with their exhibits are
the land scapes. Nearly every
foreign nation has typical gar
den. The exposition has decora-
tive structures including the
cascades and Logoons, the
Louisiana Purchase Monument,
Pavilions and bridges. The in
door exhibits are furnished by
over 1000 exhibitors, which are
divided into fifteen departments.
No Nebraskan should fail tovisit
the agricultural building. You
will find there All exhibit of Ne.
braska agricultural products OF
which you will not be ashamed

FRANK E. HOWE, Editor and Publisher

There are too many lawyers and
doctors. We do not hope that any of
them will starve to death, but we do
hope that the people will go to law as
little as possible and take as little
medicine as possible, to the end that a
good many lawyers and doctors may
retire from business. The best medi-
cine is to take care of yourself and eat
less and sleep more. A doctor can't
cure you when you are out of order,
you must cure yourself. A dog knows
that much; when he has eaten too
much or remained out too long chas.
ing sheep at night, he hunts up GER
tain herb he knows of and eats 1t, lies
in the sun little longer than usual,
and comes out all right. Lawyers do
not practice law for the benefit of the
people; they practice law for the bene
fit of themselves. The wisest peo-
pie never go to law when it can
possibly be avoided. 1t is mistake
TO imagine that your little grievances
can be righted by the courts. A dol
lars worth of justice costs dollar
and ninety-eight cents at the court
house. -Atchison Globe.

When the Vermont democratic state
committee bought advertising space
in newspapers during the late cam
paign in order to set forth the claims
of their several candidates, the depar-
ture was viewed by many with criti-
cal eye. Republican newspapers were
criticised for selling space to demo-
Gratis. Perhaps some of these critics
have noticed that w. L Douglass was
very thoroughly advertised in the
Massachusetts papers of both parties,
and that the national republican CON-
mittee secured full page advertise
ments in 80 October magazines, where.
in the reasons why Theodore Roose-
welt should be reelected were carefully
set forth. Political advertising is a
novelty in Vermont, but it has long
ceased to be novelty in other parts
of the COMMUNICATIONS Falls Times.
