Cochran on TAFT.

There is a remarkable unani-
nifty of opinion of Judge Taft in
all parties aud in all sections.
Men pay tribute to his remark
able ability even where party
politics may exert such an ipflu-
ence as to demand the espousing
Of the rival presidential candi-
dates cause. AS an illustration
w. Bourke Cochran is an inter-
view at Boston the other day
said:
"Yes, I shall support Bryan;
he is the best candidate the DEM
ocrats could put up. Taft, how
ever, is the greatest and best
qualified nominee ever offered in
any Republic in the world. He
is greater man than Roosevelt,
and when surrounded by the
same environment that made
Roosevelt great will prove big
ger man. Taft is a wonderful
administrator, the greatest the
country has ever seen and IS a
wonderful worker.

Billy Hearst Turns Humorist.

William Randolph Hearst has
addressed letter to the Iroquois
Club, of San Francisco, a Dem
ocratic political organization, re-
plying to the request of the club
that he tender his risignation.
Hearst says that he is both
pleased and surprised to receive
the letter from the club--pleased
that he has been asked to resign,
and surprised to learn that the
club is still in existance.
Mr.. Hearst continues: "You
imply that l am not Democrat,
and strongly suspect that l am
not, according to Democratic
standards of today.
"You imply further that you
are Democrats and / cannot help
wondering what kind of Demo
Gratis you think you are. Are
you 1892 Democrats or 1898 or
1900 or 1904 or 1908 Democrats?
"Are you Cleveland Democrats
believing in tariff reform that we
did not get and military sup
preston of labor unions that we
did get? Are you Parker Demo-
Gratis, supporting the trusts if
they contribute, and opposing
them if they don't?
"Are you Bryan Democrats, be-
lieving in free silver sometimes,
and in government ownership
sometimes and in the initiative
and referendum sometimes? If
you are Bryan Dc mocrats, do you
also believe in Bryan platform
that contains none of these
things?
"Friends and ex-brothers OF
the lroquois club, there is no
Democratic party; there is only
Bryan party, and the followers
of that party don't know when
they go to bed at night, what
they will be callod upon to bel eve
when they wake up in the morn
ing.
"And so l received your COM
munication with qualification
and gratitude and so withdraw
from your club with pleasure and
without the slightest hard feeling.
Good luck and God bless you,
and may you be able to keep up
with your mule"

Says Taft will Win.

l think Mr.. Taft will win the
presidential election by major
ity, though l believe we are like
ly to have Democratic House,
owing to local political questions,
writes John Schroers, the Wes-
tern editor to the New York Her
aid from London. Mr.. Schroers
until recently was the managing
editor of the st. Louis Times
and several other Western papers.
Close touch with the drift Of SEN
timent on the presidential situa-
tion in the west where Bryan
has been able to get hearing
and regarded as his stronghold
has convinced Mr.. Schroers that
the Nebraskan with all his aero
batic hippodroming is still unable
TO hoodwink the people.

not. Suffice it to say that it was
Exceptionally strong, and that it

by, will not only make them rich
but will make Custer county the

REPUBLICANS
ORGANIZED.
MET LAST SATURDAY AND ELECTED
OFFICERS.
EVERYONE ANXIOUS TO PUSH.
W. A. George, Chairman; Samuel Cannon,
Vice Chairman; W. N. Dunn, Secy
and II. S. Waterbury, Treas.
The Names of Committee.

Last Saturday afternoon the
newly elected County Central
Committee, as many of them as
could be present, met in Alpha
Mongan's Office in Broken Bow
and perfected their organization.
The meeting was called to order
by Joseph Pigman, chairman of
the old committee, who briefly
stated the objects of the meeting
after which the following busi-
ness was transacted:
On motion w. A. George was
unanimously elected Chairman.
Mr.. George thanked the COM
mittee for the honor conferred
upon him and said that he was
in the harness for hard work
from then on until the votes
were counted and Custer county
had rolled up an increased
majority for Taft and Sheldon
and the election of the entire
Republican county ticket. He
also asked for the committee aud
the Republicans of the county to
put their shoulders to the
wheel and push for victory with
a stronger effort than had ever
been done before in the county.
The new chairman realizes that
the officers can not accomplish
much good unless the rank and
file OF the party are in hearty
cooperation with them and are
willing to advise and assist the
committee at all times. Every
Republican in Custer county
should feel free to give advice to
the Central Committee, for the
officers will have their hands full
for the next few weeks, and
suggestions from them may be
means whereby the Republican
majority could be greatly in
creased. Let's everyone get
busy as the chairman suggests.
If we do THE REPUBLICAN will
have good news for every ma i
woman and child in Custer coun-
ty after the votes are counted.
And that news will be that by
an increased majority the people
of Custer believe in continuing
the policies of President Roose-
velt and endorse the excellent
administration given us by our
State Officials.
On motion Will M. Dunn was
elected Secretary.
On motion II. S. Waterbury
was elected Treasurer.
On motion Judge A. r. Hum
phrey was elected delegate to
the State Convention which
meets in Lincoln next Monday
for the purpose of adopting a
platform.

committee and that the Chair
man and Vice-Chairman be

Chairman Pigman and Vice
Chairman Myers of the old COM
mittee read their report of re-

and the report was accepted and
the gentlemen commended for
the good work they had ac-
complished.

aess to come before the committee

Farm Machinery.

Every farmer is interested
more or less in farm machinery,
and while and while the exhibit
along this line was good the
more he can see of this at the
fair the better satisfied he is,
and the more anxious he will be
to some again. Next year this
department should be enlarged
on,

EXHIBITS WERE EXCEPTIONALLY FINE
THIS YEAR.
EVERYBODY SEEMED PLEASED
The Only Thing That Marred The Pleas.
ureS Of The People Was The
Dust on Thursday and
Friday.

Another county fair passed
into history in Custer county
and II will always be remember
ed as the best one ever held.
The officers were painstaking in
seeing that each exhibitor had a
good place in which to show his
products and also that the people
were made as comfortable as
possible aside from the dust over
which they had no control.
Thursday was largest day. the
fair grounds being almost sea
of people.
Agricultural and Fruit Exhibits.
The floral hall was a place of
beauty and many were the words
of praise and commendat tion
heard on how nicely everything
was arranged in the different de-
partments. A visit to hall
amply repaid one for coming
many miles to see, and, after
looking at the exhibits which
we're festooned on the walls and
tables every Custer countyian' 5
heart swelled with pride. There
were apples and fruits of nearly
ever variety and all in perfect
condition which showed con-
clusively that our county could
produce as fine fruit as the best
of them.
The small grains and grasses
in their harvested stats were
tastely arranged to good advan-
tage, which the tables and shelv-
ing fairly groaned with wheat,
oats, timothy, grass and alfalfa
seeds which have made Custer
county known tar and wide as
the garden spot OF Nebraska.
Added to this was coru potatoes,
and cabbage, and almost all the
known vegetables is abundance
and as good as could be produc-
ed anywhere. In fact the horti-
cultural and agricultural dis.
plays were far superior to any
thing that has ever been seen at
any previous fair in this county.
rhe corn exhibit was especially
fine and was credit 20 Custer
county and to the farmers.
Cattle and Hogs.
Some of the finest cattle and
hogs we ever had the pleasure of
seeing was on exhibition from
different parts of the county
which went to show that our
stock raisers are not satisfied un-
less they produce top notches.
We wish that we had the space
to devote to each exhibit in these
departments and tell of the
breeds and their owners and the
premiums awarded, but we have

Are to be Praised.

1t is no easy job to have
charge Of fair association. In
fact it takes more hard work and

worry than most men and women
ane willing to undergo for the
pleasure and profit which Others
derive from their labors. For
this reason, il none otner, the
officers of the Custer County Fair
are deserving much praise icr
their uutiring efforts in giving
ms the best fair ever held in the
county.
Hog Exhibits.
The hog show was the largest
ever exhibited at a Custer Coun-
ty Fair. There were ten exhibi.
tors representing nearly one hur-
dred head of hogs. Fifty nit.
per cent of the number on exhib-
ition were Dproc Jersey; thirty
eight per cent were Poland China
aud three percent were York
Shires.
Premiums Awarded.

Poor Sight

Is often the result of poor Judge
ment or mental short sightedness.
Don't buy eyeglasses or spectacles
from irresponsible dealers. Don't
trust to your judgement. Have your
EYES EXAMINED
and glasses fitted by a graduate op
tician. Our training, experience and
the use of high class instruments Ell
able us to get at the cauae OF the
trouble and prescribe cure. The
charges are not high.

not. Suffice it to say that it was
Exceptionally strong, and that it
was a show of educational nature
which, if our farmers will profit
by, will not only make them rich
but will make Custer county the
banner stock county of the state.
The Poultry Department.
This department. was better by
far than last year and yet it
could have been improved on and
should be next year. There
should be more interest shown in
tbepoultry department by our
people. Education along this
line will result IN more easy
money to the farmer than any
one thing he can raise.
Breeders Satisfied.
The breeders of horses, cattle,
sheep and hogs were well salts
fed with the way the premiums
were awarded. Scarcely a word
of dissention was heard from
any one, with but one exception.
Those who did not receive first
premiums, however, realized
that if they had spent a little
more time III caring for their
stock the decisions would have
been different, and if we
mistake not, these exhibitors
will be much stronger and better
at the next fair.
The Art Department.
Were we to mention each ex-
hibitor in this department we
would have little room Cor any
thing else. The many different
creations in this section were
beautiful to behold and demon
strated inventive genius was not
lacking among the good wives
and children OF old Custer. This
department. probably had more
visitors than any other on the
grounds. The school exhibit by
the Broken Bow schools would
have been OF credit at the State
Fair.
Other Attractions.
The amusement end of the
fair this year was much stronger
than last. The Indians attract
ed large crowds and proved quite
feature. The guideless wonder
the rough riding, the races, etc,
were up to the standard and no
fault could be found with them,
in fact they were all as good as
one could wish TO see.
Good Order Maintained.
No disturbance of any kind
was raised on the grounds or in
town to MARI the pleasure of the
visitors. 1t was an orderly
crowd of people bent on seeking
knowledge from the exhibits
that visited Broken Bow and the
fair last week. We believe that
our people in the county profited
by their visit for fair is moth
ing unless it is educational, and
no one could attend without
learning something to his or her
advantage.
