Boostinq.
from Mondays Daily.l

Omaha World-Herald: The big mail
order house of Montgomery Ward G.
Co. has printed and is sending over
the country circular entitled Every
Knock is a Boost" In this circular
they quote a score or more of articles
from the newspapers of the country
denouncing the mail order houses.
Nobody has ever doubted that the
catalogue houses knew the value of
publicity. Anything that calls the at
tention of the public to the fact of
their existence, whether it is compli-
mentary or not, they regard as worth
the expense of publication and mail
ing. Others may profit by their ex-
ample, if others would compete with
them.
However, there is another reason
why Ward & Co. spread abroad these
articles denouncing them as takers
and adulterators and short-weighters,
etc. Most of the accusations are not
true. 1t does no good to make false
charges against an enemy. The mail
order houses are enemies of the com.
munities where they sell goods, but ii
is not because they do a fraudulent
business. 1t is because the citizen OF
Blankville, when he sends his money
to Chicago, is boosting Chicago and
making BlanKville poor. And in the
poverty which he is doing his best to
promote he is including himself; he is
depreciating the value of his own
farm or town lot; he is helping to de,
prive his children of the school advant
ages and his family of the living com
forts that are part of a prosperous
community.

newspaper are not hurting the cata-

West Point, Neb., Aug. Especial
to The News Former State Senator
Andrew r. Oleson, who has filed for
the nomination for judge of the dis
trict court in this district, has an
nounced that he has severed his Off
cial connection with the Chicago and
Northwestern railway company, as
their local attorney for Cunning coun-
ty and has surrendered the pass held
by him. He is out in a very frank
and able article in which he shows
that his connection with the railway
company was simply as its attorney
and that the ordinary relation of attor-
ney and client was the only one exist
ing between himself and the company
at any time, that he served them to
the best of his ability precisely as he
served his other clients. The article
is very manly and straightforward
document and has created a very ia
vorable impression.

BocHE IN COURT TO-DAY.
His Writ Of Habeas Corpus Case Com.
Ing up at Madison.


County Attorney Jack Koenigstein
was notified Saturday morning that
w. V. Allen, attorney for Boche, would
go into the district court in the after
noon seeking writ from Judge Welch
to compel the commissioners of insan-
ity to pass on the sanity of Boche.
The action was brought Friday by SEN
ator Allen in person and directed
against DR.. f. A. Long, Clerk of the
District Court w. II. Field and Attor-
ney James Nichols as members of the
commission.
The original insanity complaint was
filed with the commissioners by Sen
ator Allen. AT the time set for the
hearing the commissioners sustained
the county attorneys contention that
the charge of murder against Boche
took the matter beyond their jurisdic-
ton.
County Attorney Koenigstein was
also notified Saturday morning that
other motions in the Boche case would
be brought up for decision before
Judge Welch.
The session of the district court at
Madison was a special session called
to handle some court business that
had accumulated at Madison. Judge
Welch passed through Norfolk at noon
for Madison and was joined in the
city by Attorneys Koenigstein, Hazen,
Tyler and Mapes.
