There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
falling to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it 1ncurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only consritu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.

ANOTHER lUNlTlC

Eleven Have Been Sent to
Asylum this Year.
GREAf BULK OF IHth Et6RNS
Those in Position 10 know Say InSan-
lily Among Negroes Was hImosl
Unknown During Slavery Times.
New Its Prevalence is Il
tracing Attention.

A jury in the Court of Ordinary
yesterday decided that Emma Millner,
a colored girl about sixteen years old,
was lunatic and she was ordered
sent to Milledgeville.
Insanity is believed to be hereli-
tary in the family, one of her sisters,
| it is stated, having died in the asy-
lum.
The girl recently developed pecu7
liar tendencies, fuctuating from
swearing and abusive language to
praying and singing of hymn, or a
desire to strike those around her.
Sumter county seems to be earn
ing an unenyiable record for proyid-
ing lunatics to the State asylum
Since January / there have been
eleven persons committed from this
place to the asylum, one white and
ten colored The white case died at
the asylum. Outside of these there
was a considerable representation in
the asylum already from Sumter coun.
| ty.
The spread of insanity among ne.
groes is one of the peculiarities oil
their development since slavery times
that is attracting much attention. A
crazy negro before the war, it is saiG
by those in position to know, was 6
rarity. Since the war, and especially
during the past ten years, there has
been an enormous increase in insan-
ity among them.

ABOUT TO QUIT.
Telegraph Operators Realize That
They Waged Losing Battle.


The Indications are that before the
first of next week the strike of the
Commercial Telegraph operators will
be declared off. The operators had
plenty of just grievances, but unfor-
tunately they were not prepared for
strike. They had accumulated no
defense fund of any amount, and they
failed to strike as unit. The result
was that at the first sign of trouble
the companies began preparing for the
struggle. The operators had practic-
ally only one employer, and that en-
-Dloyer was in a position to let busi-
ness go hang. 1t was the public, not
the company, that suffered.
Then the work of organization had
not been perfected as it should have
been before a general strike was
called. Despite all these drawbacks,
however, the operators put up mag
nificent fight, and the experiences
they have had will be of invaluable
assistance to them They have
learned a great deal about what union
ism means, and that is well worth the

CENTRAL LABOR UNION.
First November Meeting Will BE Held
Next Tuesday Evening.

The Central Labor Union will meet
at Bruse's hall next Tuesday evening
at s o'clock. 1t has been three weeks
since the central body met, and it is z
hoped that the attendance will be
larger than usual. At the last meeting
the central body took cognizance of
Fremont and adopted the following
resolutions:
Whereas, The self-respecting print
ers of Fremont have struck against
the Hammond Printing Co., of that
city to enforce recognition OF, the right
to organize, and for the shorter work
day granted by fair employers in
other cities; and
Whereas, 1t behooves us as union
lists to stand squarely by the employ
ers who have treated with us fairly
and have recognized our right to or
ganize; and
Whereas, 1t was manifestly unfair
for our members to work in a shop
that by reason of longer hours and low
er wages was enabled to unduly COM
pete with fair employers working the
eight-hour day and paying the union
scale of wages; therefore be it
Resolved, That we hereby endorse
the action taken by the union printers
of Fremont in striking the Fremont
Tribune shop. and hereby tender them
| our moral and financial support.
Resolved, That we deplore the prom
inence given by the republican party
of Nebraska to Ross u. Hammond, the
editor of the Fremont Tribune, be-
cause the said Ross L. Hammond as
editor of the Tribune has taken occa-
sion to class labor unions with the Of
fensfve trusts and has repeatedly
ubeled the unions by charging them
with wrongful and insolent interfer-
ence with the business of employees,
/ thus casting discredit upon the mil
lions of wage earners who have or
ganized for mutual advancement and
mutual helpfulness.
j Resolved, That it is the sense Of the
Central Labor Union of Lincoln, Ne
braska that political recognition of a
union hater and open shop advocate
is an insult to organized labor which
should, ana will, be resented at the
i polls.
Resolved, That Lincoln Central La
bor Union protest against the APP
pointment of Ross L. Hammond to the
Office Of collector of internal revenue.
and that this union call upon sister
unions of all crafts to join in this
protest.
| Resolved, That copy of this reso-
luton he sent to each one OF Ne
braska's United States senators and
tc each one of the six representatives
in the lower house of congress, and
that copies be furnished to the press.

for board and room. If alien labor
ers can be secured who will work for
miserable wage and live just little
factories will work full time and thus
be able to undersell the factories that
pay decent wages and contribute to-
standard of living. 1t is not surpris-
ing that Timothy j. Mahoney and Eu-
clid Martin fastened to take advan-
tage of Uncle Sans generous offer of
cheap labor.
