Dear Sir:
The campaign is rapidly draw
ing to close and we desire to say
a word to the voters of your coun-
ty through the columns of your pa
per.
The republican party has been
in control of Nebraska in every
branch of the state government
for the last five years. As re-
suit, taxes have greatly increased
and the state debt has continued
to grow. In the last legislature,
one hundred twenty-four out of
one hundred thirty-three members
were republicans. The legislature
refused to pass law that would
bring relief to the independent
shipper of grain; it refused to pass
freight rate, or anti-pass law,
and it declined to do anything for
the relief of the people.
The democratic party in it's plat
form this year is pledged, and if it
is entrusted with power, will,
when an opportunity comes enact
laws that will give the people re-
lief. We have nominated for Judge
of the supreme bench, William G..
Hastings, a man that needs no
introduction to the people of Ne
braska. For many years he served
as a judge of the district court,
and in that capacity he established
the reputation of being an able
lawyer, fearless judge, and one
to whom the humblest as we'll as
the highest litigant in an honest
cause could appeal in perfect con-
fidence. While his election means
non-partisan judiciary, no COR
poration of any kind has any
strings upon him. He is absolute
ly a free man and if elected to the
supreme bench may be depended
upon to dispense justice, whether
the issue be between uninfuential
persons or between powerful
corporation and poor man.
D. G. Cole and Louis Lightner,
the democratic nominees for re-
gents of the state university, are
we'll and favorably known among
their neighbors. They are deeply
interested in public educationa
institutions and the frank state
ment they have made to the peo-
pie concerning their course in the
event of their election leaves no
room for comment. They will
stand for publicity with respect to
the university affairs. They will
use their influence for the return,
of the ill-gotten gains with which
John D. Rockefeller has under
taken to endow and subsidize the
Nebraska university. They will
exert every effort to make it plain
that the great educational institu-
ton which is the pride of all Ne
braska is not to be used to the ad.
vantage of the trust system and is
not to be conducted as an apology
for the crimes of the trust mag.
mates.
To this end. therefore, we in
vlte the cordial cooperation of all
the people of Nebraska without re.
gard to political prejudice. Be-
cause of the peculiar advantages
which a political organization sup
ported by corporation favors, and
trust funds has over one that
stands for popular government,
we desire to impress upon every
one who believes with US the i'm
portance of bringing to the polls
every citizen who has grown
weary of corporation rule and who
appreciates the importance of a
victory in this years contest in
Nebraska. This contest, as will
be generally agreed, is but fore

JELLIED APPLES.

A rich and attractive compete of ap-
pies is made of firm, tart apples baked
in the oven and served with a ~f1avoring
sauce. To make it, peel, core and
quarter the apples and put them in a
porcelain-lined dish, with just enough
water to prevent their burning. About
a cupful will be required for a quart
of apples. Add about a cup of sugar
and the yellow rind of half a lemon
cut into bits, being careful to cut away
all white inner skin. Cover the apples
with a china plate and let them cook
for about an hour. When the apples
are nearly transparent, thoroughly
done, but not broken, take them out
carefully and put them into the dish
in which they are to be served. Cool a
little of the juice, and if it is not a
jelly, boil it down to n Let the COM
pote stand for twenty-four hours in
order that the jelly around the apples
may become thoroughly set. 1t is per-

CHARACTER IN NECK.

Character is told every day of the
week by the expression of the mouth
and eyes, by the hands, ETC., but it is
not everyone who can read the charac-
ter of their friends by the shape and
appearance of their necks.
Nevertheless, the neck of a woman
will indicate to a great extent what is
her general character and often the
state Of her health.
The neck of the avaricious man or
woman is stretched far forward and
out of their clothes. It looks as if it
were in the pursuit of gain.
On the other hand, the sagacious neck
is a short, muscular neck, and is large.
Sometimes their Wner are spoken of
as having no neck, the head looking
almost as if it We're resting upon the
shoulders, says Woman's Life.
The perfectly proportional neck is
the graceful neck. 1t is rather long, it
is true, but it is eXquisitely rounded,
and it indicates a charming, affable
nature.
Another long neck, one, however,
which is thin, belongs to the timid,
over-sensitiye person. indianapolis

FACTS ABOUT GOWNS.

1t is necessary nowadays that a
woman's clothes must not only be be-
coming, but they must become her.
When a really we'll gowned woman
enters a room she should make the
place in which shestands or sits appear
more beautiful. 1t is not necessary to
say she wore this, OF that the silk of
her gown was cream sole de chine
with silk roses looking as though they
had scattered upon her from the
branches of impossible trees.
1t should be difficult to describe in
detail the clothes of a perfectly gowned
oma She should have chosen them
because they We're individual. not &C.
centric. In choosing 4 material a wom-
an must feel that that weave will not
look when Worn by her like that on
anyone else. and she must also under
stand that her gowns must be made
simply for her own benefit, to become
her only. and not to be like one of her
friends or NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Ad-

DON'T n FLOWERS.

Have YOU observed that it is no
longer the smart thing to wear a mon
ster bunch of violets tucked in your
corsage? Women of fashion seem, at
last, to have acquired the art of wear
ing flowers. Certainly there is no love-
lier adornment and no more becoming
one than a real live flower. The trou-
bic was that we overdid it.
Now, you just pin a single white or
golden chrysanthemum-not too large
upon your coat, OF tuck it under your
chin, attaching it to your neck piece.
You can wear an orchid, a scarlet
dahlia, or a rose in the same manner,
and you have no idea how s%tartlingly
lovely a pretty face above a real flower
appears.
In the evening it is no longer the
fashion to carry huge punches or
shower bouquets Of roses. A single
flower. carried in the hand. is the fad.
When affected by 1 naturally graceful
woman. is is the acme Of grace. One
need no longer sit stiffly holding ones
fists together in in effort to retain ones
bouquet, but can gesticulate and use
the single flower to emphasize ones
every thought. 1t is a boon to the
who does not know what to do
with her hands.
A natural flower caught in the low
Golf now fashionable is another addi-
ton to the evening toilet. Indeed, this
is the real art of wearing flowers. 1t
applies also to the arrangement of
flowers for household decoration. The
Japanese, those lovers of flowers, never
place more than one flower, or at most,
one spray or branch in a vase, and
consider that they have arranged it
artistically only after they have pro
duced in it the effect of growing di-
rectly from the vase.

~HIGH-HEELED SHOES.

Woe to the young women VINO are
wearing high-heeled shoes. The tor
ture to follow this practice cannot be
imagined by the N who has been for
tunate enough never to have had any
trouble with her feet. The feet are
certain to swell after high-heeled shoes
have been Worn for a time, and if the
young women are able to get shoes
which they ear wear without tOrturing
extremely fortunate, says IN exchange.
The women, however, who will per-
sist in wearing these French high
heeled shoes, should give their feet
some attention at night, and before
putting the shoes on. The woman who
is obliged to limp along with every
step on these bright, sunshiny days, is
not to be envied. The warn weather
means positive torture to the ones
whose pedal extremities are forced to
wear unhealthy shoes. The feet be-
come puffy and every cor becomes en-
dowed with a tendency to develop un-
expected twinges and aches, while no
shoes can be found that is flexible or
soft enough to be worn with any com
fort.
Women should be very careful in the
selection of hosiery. Women whose
feet are extremely tender should never
choose black hose, for the dye acts
upon the skin. If colored hosiery must
be worm. white feet should be insisted
upon. Shoes should be carefully
chosen. Everything in the shape of
patent, glazed or enameled leather
should be avoided, and instead other
feathers selected that do not in any
way draw or cause a feeling of puff
ness. The hosiery must, of course, be
fresh each day, and at least three
pairs of walking boots will be found
of great advantage as in changing off
from II to the other the feet will be
rested.
A busting powder will be a great aid.
This should be shaken in both shoes
and stockings each morning. Just a
most effective. This powder is made
by adding to four ounces Of pure tai
cum, m ounce of powdered boracic
acid, one-half dram of salycilic acid
and two drains of powdered alum. Pos
sibly in connection with the use of
this powder, a tonic in the form Of the
lotion should be applied each night.
The feet must first be bathed in very

TIE

The amethyst, which is enjoying such
popularity this season, is a most con-
venient jewel, for not only is it be-
coming to both blonde and brunette
coloring, but it also blends we'll with
many OF the fashionable shades in ma
terials aside from the approved tints
in purple, with all of which it CORE
of the many combinations and quaint
designs in which the amethyst is used
are sprays Of v~iolets, with a tiny dia-
mond nesting here and there. Close
upon the popularity of amethysts come
sapphires. topaZes and tourmalines and
ity.
These jewels in drop necklaces and
as pendants are so cleverly initiated
for reasonable prices that many a So
ciety girl has several of these mock
jeWel' ornaments to correspond with
the shades of her various gowns. Imi-
tation jewelry is generally something
to be avoided, but the craze for bar
barrie designs has been a little over
done, and will probably not last many
more seasons; consequently she who
desires to be fashionable on a small
income must strain a point, as it
scarcely pays to buy an expensive Or
nament of an extreme style.
Indeed, the chain necklace with
jeweled pendants has become such a
recognized part of the toilette, and to
such an extreme has the demand for
harmony in color reached, that such
a necklace is fairly considered a part
of the trimming of the gown itself
rather than as a jewel with an in
diyidual value.

FLOWERS IN HAT TRIMMINGS.

Fur toques will be worn extensively
this winter and Dame Fashion DEGREES
that stiff flowers on velvet and crushed
velvet will be the most fashionable
trimming for them. Of course, fur
hats are always small and plumes and
such like are not quite in place on
many of them. Flowers in winter are
a pretty fad at any rate. and since the
manufacturers are making such pretty
effects they are so very realistic. Ca
nleliaS, g%ardenias and stiff petaled flow
ers are the most popular. Sometimes
only one is worn. if it is of a large
size. Sable hats are the handsomest
and most expensive, and they look
very we'll trimmed with flowers of a
pronounced shade. Violets make hand
some designs. and maEy of the punches
are shaded from a heliotrope to the
deepest purple. A swagger model of
sable in fiat sailor shape had a close
set wreath of white g%ardenias around
the crown. Another hat Of sable had
a crown of violets and had the brfm
edged with them. An attractive
chaDeau, to be sure.-Newark Adver-

Your neat little foot will be weary from spjnAAgs
Come, trip down with NE to the sycamore tree;
Half the parish is there, and the dance is beginning.
The sun is gone down; but the full harvest moon
Shines sweetly and cool on the dew-whitened valley;
While all the an rings with the soft, loving things.
Each little bird sings in the green shaded alley"
With a blush and a smile Kitty rose up the while,
Her eye in the glass, as she bound nr hair, gancing;.
It's hard to refuse when a young lover sues,
So she couldn't but choose to go off to the dancing.
And now on the green the glad groups are seen
Each gay-hearted lad with the lass of his choosing;
And Pat, without ial, leads out sweet Kitty Neil
Somehow, when helasked, she neer thought Of refusing.
Now Felix Mdagee puts his pipes to his knee,
And with flourish so free. sets each couple IN motion;
With a cheer and a bound, the lads batter the ground
The maids move around just like swans on the ocean.
Checks bright as the rose-feet light as the does
Now costly retiring, now boldly advancing;
Search the world all around from the sky to the ground
No such sight can be found as the Irish lass dancing!
Sweet Kate, who could view your eyes of deep blue,
Beaming humidity through their dark lashes so mildly
Your tai1yturned arm, heaving, breast, rounded form
Poor Pat feels his heart, as he gazes, depart,
uSubdued by the smart Of such painful vet sweet love;
lhe sight leaves his eyes as he cries with a sigh,
Dance light. for my heart it lies under your feet, love!'
