MURDER IN tiiAWATHA
CoIored Woman Found in Her Bed
With Skull Crushed

On last Thursday morning
about 7:30 O'Clock when Isabella
Baker, a colored woman, went
10 the home of Miss Ellen Shives
another colored woman. IT was
to find her dead in her bed, she
having been struck over the
head with the sharp edge of an
axe, which had always been
used to keep the Kitchen door
closed, the blow splitting the
skull. There is no clew as to
the murderer and no motive can
be shown for the awful deed.
Miss Shives was an Old south
ern negro, about 55 years of
age. She had been a slave in
the tobacco fields when young
girl, but had lived in Kansas
since the close of the Civil war.
Several letters were on her bed
when she was found, but none
of them furnish a clew, and SO
far the case is enshrouded in
the deepest mystery.

POSTOFFICE ROBBED
Uncle Sans Headquarters &
Straussville Entered

On Wednesday morning when
George w. Shurms, postmaster at
Straussyille. opened up his place
of business, which is a general
store and postoffice combined, it
was to find that the same had
been entered during the night,
and an investigation disclosed the
fact that the thieves had COTTON
away with considera bic booty.
The postoffice safe had been
blown open, and the scientific
manner in which it was done
proves it was the work of an ex-
pert. The thieves secured about
$110 in stamps and cash, and
there was quite a quantity OF
knives, cigars and tobacco taken
from the store.
Entrance was made through a
window, and up to date no clew
has been found as to the guilty
party or parties.

DEAD IN a coRNFiELp
Walter Meyers of HiaWatha Found
Dead at Paul, Neb.

Walter Meyers, of Hiawatha,
we'll known to a number of our
citizens, met a sad and untimely
end at Paul, Neb., during the
past week. Mr.. Meyers ~eame-to
this city October Is, and from
here started for Dallas, South
Dakota. He had been alling for
some time, and when he reached
Omaha he was very sick man.
A travelling man noticed his con-
dition, took him from the train
and cared for him until relatives
from Hiawatha came after
him. Oscar Meyers, brother
arrived, in answer to telegram,
and started back TO Hiawatha
with the sick man. Placing him
in berth Oscar went TO the chair
car and fell asleep. After leav-
ing Paul, Neb., Oscar went to
the brothers berth to find it
empty. He Immediately went
back to Paul and commenced his
search but to no avail and two
days after arriving at his home
in Hiawatha received word that
a dead man had been found in a
field near Paul, which proved to
be the lost one. The suppositlon
is that Walter, in his delirium
had wandered from the train, and
as he was subject to heart failure,
this is assigned as the cause of
his death.
The body was taken to Hiawa-
tha, where the funeral was held
Tuesday.

WIND CAMPAIGN

cd BY the Candidates and
Prominent Speakers

Saturday night will practically
close the campaign in this sec
tion, SO far as speaking is con
cerned. The past week has been
busy one, of the whirlwind var

been covered and large and en-
thusiastic meetings held i'll every
voting precinct.
On Monday night CT. Reavis,
]. Il. Cain and the candidates
visited Barada. The meeting
was held in the Shnlenberg hall,
which was far to small 10 accom-
modate the large crowd present,
and many were unable to hear
the splendid talks given by the
several speakers. A large major
ity Of the voters of both Baradas
were there. and nothing but en-
coura ging news comes from that
section.
The same is true of the meet
ing in Preston on Tuesday even
ing. Those who were unable to
hear c. +. Reavis a week ago on
account of the bad weather, were
out enmasse on Tuesday night,
and all were as a unit in saying
it was without exception the very
best talk they had ever listened
to- ]. E. Leyda was with Mr..
Reayis on Tuesday evening, who
also gave his hearers much food
for thought, which is sure to bear
good fruit next Tuesday.
Another splendid meeting was
that held in Salem Tuesday even
ing with A. J. Weaver, ]. Il.
Cain jr., and the candidates in at
tendance. each sowing seed
which will yield big republican
harvest, as will be proven on
November ;.
On Wednesday evening {. +.
Reavis and the candidates spoke
to a crowded house in Stella. AS
this is the home Of our next state
senator J. r. Cain. we know
what the result will be from that
quarter. On the same evening
]. K. Cain and A. J. Weaver
| looked after the voters in Speiser
precinct. Senator Norris Brown
spoke 10 large crowds in Hum
boldt on Tuesday afternoon and
in Shubert the same evening at
s o'clock.
Every meeting this week with
out one exception has been we'll
attended and full of enthusiasm,
and from the present prospects
nothing can head off the big
republican majority on next
Tuesday. The meetings for the
remainder of the week will be as

WHY NOT VOTE FOR YOURSELF?

Before The Tribune is issued again the vote
will be cast
The reader of this may be a democrat a
republican But whether or the other he has
certain personal interests to be served.
Bad times are no respecter of persons. Each
suffers alike in the general depression.
1t is duty you owe to yourself, your family
and the general community to cast your ballot
in way that will contribute to your interest the
material we'll being of your family and the gen
eral welfare of the entire community.
In 1892 Mr.. Bryan debated with Allen w.
Field through this district In all of these de
bates he promised reduction in prices under
the democratic idea of tariff. He elected
and helped frame democratic tariff
Will you for the moment consider what this
tariff did to the American farmer?
The last year of this tariff 1896
Then the republican party came into power
under the late President Mckinley and repub-
lican tariff was enacted
The last year under the republican tariff is
the present year of 1908.
We would like to have you compare what
farm products worth in 1896 the last year
of Bryan's tariff, and wlRt they were worth in
1903, the last year of republican tariff
The following prices taken from the
Chicago Board of Trade. June 1st, 1896, and
June 1St 1908:

The above comparisons could be followed
with the result on everything the farmer
sells buys. In giving the increase in the
value of farm products, which is in some in
stances (horses) as high as 400 per cent, we do
not include the increase in the value of your
farms You all know how much farm values
have increased since the day of the late Presi-
dent Cleveland and democratic tariff. ''But,
says democratic friend it just happened. 1t
is a chance, coincidence"
But is it?
President Harrison, administration had
publican tariff and prices good!
President Cleveland succeeded Harrison and
enacted democratic tariff and prices were bad,
very bad.
President Mckinley succeeded Cleveland
and enacted republican tariff and prices
good very good.
Never under a democratic tariff have prices
been good
Never under republican tariff have prices
been bad
Why experiment?
Why not play safe?
Why not let we'll enough alone?
Why not vote for yourself, your family and
the general welfare?
