In the customary place in this issue
will be found the announcement of J.
D. Parker, better known as Jim"
who is a candidate before the repub-
lican primaries for the nomination to
the office of sheriff. Mr.. Parker is
too well known in Lancaster county
to need an Introduction at the hands
of The Wageworker. While in bust
in Lincoln he insisted on his en-
ployes belonging to the union of their
craft. He held the Office of chief of
police for several years and is quite
willing to rest upon the record there
made. He is making an open and
manly fight for the nomination and is
meeting with cordial support in all
quarters, especially from those who
have had dealings with him in a bust
ness way.

THE NEBRASKA CENTRAL BUILD
ING AND LOAN ASSOCIATION


No movement during the last ten
years has met with such unqualified
success as have the building and loan
associations scattered throughout the
United States This growth is attribu-
ted to many causes which are easily
understood when the subject is studied
from disinterested point of view.
The saving man does not consider
himself educated enough to understand
the delicate points which are the in
vestor's stock and trade and his first
thought is of the savings bank, which
offers him three to four per cent and
absolute security. At this point the
building and loan association comes
in and to the investor guarantees six
percent and even better which expert
ence has shown to furnish the same Sc
curity, with the natural result that he
chooses the latter. 1t is plan by
which two persons benefit, the inves-
tor and the client who wishes to es-
cape the landlords grip.
The Nebraska Central Building &
Loan Association commenced business
in 1898 and their fourteen years of
progress is shown by the following
statement:

Col Tom Pratt, present city clerk

New York.-Argum e n
against usurpation by thesNa-
ii nal Government of the pow
FRS reserved to the States by
ne Constitution was made by
Representative Mccall, of Ma S.
thusetts, in an address before
'nr Republican Club here to-
light.
Jr. Mccall declared that the
m is ripe for a warning
a. inst 1.-The tendency to over,
throw the balance of the Con-
S : ution and to regulate each
al d all of US from Washington.
That there is such a tendency,
he held, is too palpable to be
de lied. He expressed the opin-
lou that the States are ideally
constituted to ideal with the
great mass of questions relating
to personal government.
1.-The system of Government
that Lincoln stood for and that
emerged victorious from the
Civil War was a dual system,
under constitution which as
distinctly reserved powers to
the States and the people as it
granted others to the national
Government.
Qualification by States of
the action of the National Gov.
erument would be entirely re-
pugnant to this system, but no
more repugnant than usurpation
by the National Government of
the powers reserved to the
States Either would be, in
substance, precisely what South
Carolina tried 10 do, and would
be destructive to our conStitu
tionai sys EN-

Briar Patch.

Friday George Green told us:
Mack is sick of Texas. He has
shipped his kit of tools home
because wages are low and
board high. 1t takes about all
of the first to pay the second.
And Mack says Wray Fuqua
has got the blues and will be
glad enough to return home.
Just so, Texas and the north.
west has advertised their coun-
try in rosy hues aud caused
many people to believe that it
was there that the Garden of
Eden had been re-established
and upon a close examination
many of them think, compared
with northeast Missouri, they
had found briar patches.
That is why so many return
and the reason that more of
them do not return is, they be-
come too doggoned poor to get
back.

Fidelity of Heart.

Little faithfulnesses are not only
the preparation for great ones, but lit
tie faithfulnesses are in themselves
the great ones. The essential fidelity

OF the making of shoes there may

went barefooted, or only wore foot

when the weather was inclement, have

Hope.
When the skies are blue
And walk with you,
1t is is easy to be glad!
When the skies are tossed
And your face is lost,
Then the world is hard and bad!
All, you whisper words
Like the song of birds,
All, you cheer my way
With your lifting lay
And you make me strong and glad!
When the skies are blue
May l walk with you?
Just forever, Hope, with you?
Will you whisper truth
From the lips of youth
AS we wander in the dewT
Will you hold my hand
Ger Discouraged Land,
Will you whisper words
Like the song of birds
Till the pilgrimage is through?

Best Tr.iloy Wheels.

1t has LOW been settled without
question, says the lirass World, that
the best trolley wheels are those
which contain no lead. The constant
arching of the wheel and wire burns
out the lead and causes the wheel to
wear rapidly. If a trolley wheel is
found which contains lead it is GER
tain that it will wear out rapidly. 1t
is very difficult TO obtain scrap metals
on the market which do not contain
lead. For this reason trolley wheels
must be manufactured from new
metals.
