City Council

The CITY council held its regular meet
ing Monday night last and took action
on several important matters. A tnll
board was in attendance.
An ordinance making it city crime
tn sell opium was read. A former ordi-
nance on this subject was lacking IN
several details. The new ordinance will
be passed to print at the next regular
meeting.
ATTORNEY A Pilkington addressed the
board in behalf of the Ish addition. He
asked the council to approve the plat as
there was number of parties anxious
to build on the ground. The matter was
laid over until the next meeting.
Councimen Snyder and Some were
appointed a committee to superintend
the street work now i'll progress.
A petition was presented signed by
MANY citizens asking that the present
police force be not diminished so far as
night watchmen were concerned. 1t
argued that the territory to be covered
was large and beyond the powers of one
man to handle. 1t was tabled.
The clerk read his report regarding
the city's finances. Upon motion of
Councilman Gallagher it was ordered
that the report be published. 1t will
likely appear in the next issue of this
paper.
After allowing the bills the board adj
journed, to meet one week from Monday
night.

Ore has been encountered on the Nc
Connell. At depth of $50 feet in the
main working shaft, the garnetized lime
Gaping has been passed through and
ore has made its appearance, consisting
of both sulphides and oxides.
The strike was made but few days
ago, consequently its extent is not known
at this writing. However, there is ev-
cry reason to believe that it will open
up into something big. Its neighbors,
Malachite and the Mason Valley, are
already registered in the mine class with
surface conditions similar to those which
characterize the Mcconnell.
The faith of the Mcconnell people in
the property has been evidenced by a
consistent cause of development. At no
time since it acquired the property has
work been neglected. That success has
crowned its efforts is met with satisfac-
ton on all sides.

it for 81 feet in ore all the time. This
ore goes IS per cent in copper and the
quantity blocked out i'll this small
amount of development work carries
copper valued at more than $750,000.
Copper is one of the staple metals of
the world. Civilization is not going back
and while it marches forward copper
will be the most sought-for of the COM
mon minerals. ! believe we are now on
the eve of an electrical era. The steam
locomotive is passing; electricity is tax
ing its place and where coal and fire and
steel and steam are now used to move
the commerce of the world, copper wires
and electricity will soon rule and as rap
idly as it does so will the use of copper
increase.
Not half the world as yet knows of
the power of electricity and use of copper
in the transmission of this mysterious
fluid. AS an example only one or two
places in all of China, with its millions
of inhabitants and miles of territory
know the convenience of travelling on an
electric car or talking through a tele-
phone.
When copper was 26 cents pound no
one could find substitute for it. This
insures certain demand for it. The
present price will not remain long.
There is certain to be rise but not as
high as before. 1t will probably remain
between Is and 16 cents. At this price
there is good fair profit for the mine
owner.
''Yerington is one of the greatest
copper districts in the world. When
you take into consideration the fact that
the great copper producers now have
been paying immense dividends for
years past on copper ore averaging
scarcely more than one per cent, you
will realize that Yerington with it's 10
per cent copper will excel all of them.

An Honor for Kansas.

The developments at Washing
ton the past week completely
disprove the charges made by
the Anti-Long people that Sena-
tor Long is not in complete &C
cord with President Roosevelt.
When the President and Secre-
tary Taft called together a few
friends to block out a platform
for the Chicago convention they
included in the half dozen pres
ent, Senator Long of Kansas.
The important resolutions were
practically agreed upon and the
daily papers give due credit 70
GUS senator. He is the kind of a
man the President and Secretary
Taft call in when they are want
ing a wise, careful and aggres-
sive presentation of a subject.
He is in thorough sympathy
with the policies of Roosevelt
and Taft and he is trusted by
them This is an honor for Kan
sas as well as for Long, and the
state will hardly change a man
who has proven himself worthy
of the confidence both as to
principles and ability to carry
them out.

Leland Opens the Campaign.

Cyrus Leland opened his cam
paign for governor at Belleyille.
In his speech at that place Mr.
Leland said it would be his pur-
pose to build up rather than to
tear down the Republican party
in the state, and that if the Re
publican voters at the primary
should nominate Stubbs instead
of Leland for governor, they
would not find Cyrus boiling. the
ticket when the result was an
nounced.
Ex-Governor Willis J. Bailey
followed Mr.. Leland and made
an effective argument in his
usual frank and vigorous style.
I'm for Cy Leland and against
w. r. Stubbs, said Mr.. Bailey,
because Leland has; always stood
up for Kansas, while StubbS is
an alarmist.
Sometime ago I heard Mr..
Stubbs make a speech to the old
soldiers. Not one complimentary
thing did he say of the party
from which he now asks the NOM
ination for governor In every
word he attempted to show dis
cord and discomfort. He was a
candidate for senator then.
THE man who bids for the
Republican nomination for gov
ernor should be a Republican.
I openly charge on this platform
that w. r. Stubbs tried to de-
feat the party nominee in the
last Republican state campaign,
and now becomes forward and
asks that party for the highest
honor in the state. Mr.. Stubbs,
because he couldn't dictate to
the governor of our state, enter
ed into a collusion with the Dem
ocrats of his own county. Mr..
Stubbs had sore eyes and a sore
heart during that campaign.
HIS TRIBUTE TO LELAND.
Nov as to Cy Leland" said
Mr.. Bailey I have known him
for 25 years. At times he hasn t
done as I wanted him to, but he
is Republican always. He has
always been loyal to Kansas and
has played an important and
honorable part in her history,
and 1 challenge any man to sue
cessfully charge him with graft

Nature has provided the stom-

known as the digestive juices,
and it is through these juices
that the food we eat is acted up
on in such way as to produce
the rich, red blood that flows
through the veins of our body
and thereby makes US strong,
healthy and robust, and it is
the weakening of these digestive
juices that destroys health. 1t

Congressman w. A. Reeder is
entitled to credit for the man
ner in which he has always taken
care of the affairs of the district.
Mr.. Reeder Immediately saw to
the establishing of the mail route
from Cabbell to Elkader in this
county when the matter was
brought to his attention. A
year had been spent in trying to
get the authorities at Washing
ton to take the proper steps
along this line which they failed
to do. When Reeder was notified
the contract was let in two
weeks. This is only a sample
He is always ready to attend to
the wants of his constituents
He is accused by the Beloit Ga
zette and one or two other papers
whose editors can't dictate to
him, of belonging to Joe Cannon
These papers can howl all they
want to but it will be hard to
make the farmers whom Reeder
has befriended, believe it. When
the votes are counted after the
primary Mr.. Reeder will receive
the endorsement which he de-
serves Oakley Graphic.

There is one thing about Lee

mire. If elected he will be gov

ton about that And he'll be
governor for the whole state His
long experience in Kansas affairs,
especially fits him for wise gov

Nemeha county Republicans
preciation of a friend in a politi-
cal way by standing firmly by
Cy Leland in his contest for the
Republican nomination for gov
ernor in the primaries. Every
position Nemaha citizens have
won in district and state they
owe to Cyrus Leland more than
any other one man. He has taken
them from the ditch of defeat
and won nomination in conven-
tions and materially assisted
them at the polls on election day.
He has displayed his loyalty too,
by standing to and going down
in defeat with Nemaha citizens,
as well as participating in their
victories. He is an old soldier, a
first class business man and will
make a governor that Kansas will
be proud of.-Seneca Tribune.
1t is the honest opinion of the
Advocate that Cy Leland will
beat Stubbs at the Republican
primaries in August. The
Stubb's wave is receedlng and
Leland is growing stronger all
over the state. The old soldiers
are rallying to the support of Le-
land and Stubbs is being gently
but firmly eliminated. The
Stubbs boom has been very
largely froth all the time and,
being exposed to the air the
foam is disappearing.-Mankato
Advocate.
We recognize the fact that Cy-
rus Leland possesses the special
qualifications required to make
a better governor for Kansas
than any opponent. A man who
will take up his musket in time
of need and go forward to meet
the enemy of his country's flag,
Offering his life on his country's
altar, is good enough to serve
the state he has so long stood
for This is the honest view
taken by a large majority of Kan
sas soldiers rs.-Concordia Blade.
The grand old man Cyrus Le-
land, is making a splendid can
vas for the Office of governor.
It is confined to no section, nor
to no class of Republicans.
There is growing feeling
among Republicans that a Re
publican should be nominated.
His record on all progressive
laws is right. Indeed, many of
these progressive laws claimed
by the so called Square Deal
ers" would have failed had it not
been for the executive ability
and organizing capacity of Mr..
Leland. Here's for business
