5 v B A — ke Nebraska ' CRANK REVEALS DEM BUNCO GAME Oolorado Speaker Cites Figures on Trade at Meeting at = Alliance. COMPARISON TELLS STORY Alliance, Neb., Sept. 28—(Special.) —W. J. L. Crank of Colorado aroused republican enthusiasm to the highest pitch at the meeting here. He tore the mask from the face of democracy and showed from facts and figures, the false pretense by which the demo- crats are trying to perpetuate their grafting administration on the people. Mr. Crank said: “Our democratic friends are saying, ‘Look at the won- derful prosperity all over our land, due to the democratic party.’ They are appealing to the farmer for sup- port and citing the high prices he is receiving as an evidence why he should support the democratic ticket. Of course they are not fooling one man in 10,000, for we all know our prosperity is the prosperity of blood which is being shed on European bat- tle fields. Now, let us be honest; for no campaign not won upon honor should be won at all. Let these fig- ures tell the story: The Sale of Wheat. “Our sale of wheat to Europe dur- ing the first year of the war compared with the first year of the present tar- iff law, in time of peace, increased from $103,595,000 to $316,262,000, a gain of 205 per cent. Our wheat is used to feed the armies of Europe. But what was wheat worth in this country at the time of the breaking out of the European war? To show the effect of this war on our pros- perity, let us compare the year from September, 1913, to September, 1914, the year of peace, the first year of the present Underwood tariff law, with the year from September, 1914, to September, 1915, the year of war, and the second year of the present Under- wood tariff law. From this comparie son we can judge the cause of our prosperity. Quantity of Breadstuffs. “During the year of peace we sold in breadstuffs to Europe $181,484,000; in the year of war we sold to Europe, $567,607,000, a gain of 203 per cent. “In the year of peace we sold to Europe horses to the value of $3,177,- 000; in the year gf war we sold horses to the value of $82,276,000. In the year of peace we sold mules to the value of $622,000; in the year of war we sold mules to the value of $18,041,- 000. We sold hay in the yearof peace to the value of $790,000; in the year of war, $2,263,000. Figures for Peace. “During the year of peace we sold meats and dairy products to the value of $138,736,000. During the year of war we sold-the same products to the value of $243,098,000. We sold sugar to the value of $4,341,000 in the year of peace, and during the) year of war we sold sugar to the value of $36,816,000. “These figures might be carried out to a greater length, showing the same state of facts. - “Why should not the farmer he prosperous? Not on account of the democratic administration, but in spite of it.” Fo\ur Fires Started by . Matches Hidden in Wheat Friend, Neb., Sept. 28.—(Special.)— Threshing of the grain belonging to M. J.

Tyrhoid Fever Develops On Farm Near Beatrice (From a Statf Correspondent.) Lincoln, Sept. 28.—(Special Tele- gram.)---A report was received from Beatrice today that fourteen cases of typhoid fever had developed in the country eight miles south of there, throufih the use of water taken from a well on a farm owned by D. L. Knight. State Bacteriologist Wild ex- amined the water, found it contam- inated and ordered the well closed.

Lincoln, Sept. 28.—(Special.)—As- sistant Physician W. A. Danielson of the State Hospital for Insane at Has- tings has sent his resignation to the State Board of Control, to take effect at once. Dr. Danielson will take a position in Chicago. He came to the state a few months ago from Chicago, at an initial salary of $900 and was later increased to $1,000. Now he re- tutns to his former position at a sal- ary of $2,400, he informs the board of control. Cure for Cholera Morbus. “When our little boy, now 7 years old, was a baby he was cured of cholera morbus by Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem- edy,” writes Mrs. Sidney Simmons, Fair Haven, N. Y. “Since then other members of my family have used this valuable medicine for colic and bowel trouble with good satisfaction and I gladly endogse it as a remedy of ex- ceptional merit.” Obtainable every- where.—Advertisement. Cheap European Labor Will Flood Markets After War Wahoo, Neb.,, Sept. 28.—(Special Telegram.)—Congressman Anderson of the First District of Minnesota ad- dressed a well-packed house in the district court room last evening, flay- ing the administration for its weak Mexican policy amd’ citing facts and reasons why Charles Evans Hughes should be elected president next No- v mber. He said that labor in Europe would be the cheapest thing in Europe after the war-and that Europe would dump products made by this cheap labor on the United States in competition with American-made goods unless the re- publican party took hold of the gov- ernment and put on a tariff to protect our own products. . America for Americans first, said Mr. Anderson. Instead of enrichin Europe after the war, we must lool after our own country. “I have divided the exports of this country from 1913 to 1916 inclusive, into two classes,” :aid Mr. Anderson, “and I want to show that this pros- perity that democrats claim is due to their management is only a war- product prosperity. In 1913, thirty- six per cent of the exports were war material and sixty-four per cent non- war material and in 1916, seventy- four per cent of our exports were war material and thirty-six per cent non-war material, a complete reversal and still the dempcrats s.y that this is a natural prosperity.” Twenty-Four Short Course Schools to Be He@his Year Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 28.(Special.)— The number of short courses in agri- culture and home ecdnomics to be given this year by the extension serv- ice of the college of agriculture is to be double the number held last year, Last winter the service conducted twelve short courses; this year twen- ty-four courses have been .igned up, an increase of 100 per ent.

Lincoln, Sept. 28.—(Special. tenant Governor James Pearson of Moorefield has formally withdrawn as the populist candidate for that of- fice, and a meeting of the populist state committee will be held within a few days to fill the vacancy.

Walrath of the populist state committee and to Chair- man Langhorst of the democratic committee. He says he is withdraw- ing to permit fusion.

Party Is United. “We have a united party for the first time since 1910—the republicans are solid in the support of Hughes. It is really remarkable to find the unity of feeling. Practically the en- tire progressive vote is back in re- ublican ranks, under the progressive eadership of Justice Hughes, and there is a certain feeling of victory ahead. “On the other hand, there is serious dissention in the ranks of the demo- cratic party of the state and the Bryan wing is refusing to stand for the dictatorship which Arthur Mul- len secks to impose.

Clean the Kidneys with Hot Water and “Anuric” When run.down after a hard winter— when life indoors has brought about a stag- nant condition in the circulation—most everyone is filled with urlc acid—especially is this a0 of people past middle age. This uric acid in the blood often causes rheuma- ! tism, lumbago, swelling of hands or feet, or a bag-like condition under the eyes. Backache, frequent urination or the pains and stiffness of the joints are also often noticed. Dr. Pierce says that everyone should have a good sweat every day— should drink plenty of pure water and exer- cise in the open air as much as possible. This helps to throw out the poisonous urie acid thru the skin and the “water.” But for such persons as are past middle age it's often impossible to do this and lime salts are deposited in the arteries, veins and joints, causing all kinds of distressing conditions. An antidote for this uric acid poison is to take hot water before meals and “Anuric.” Ask your druggist for Doc- tor Pierce's Anurie, or send Doctor Plerce's Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y., a dollar bill for a full treat~ ment, or ten cents for a trial package. “Anuric” is & recent scientific discovery | by Dr. Pierce. “Anuric” drives the urle seid out of your body. It is a uric acid solvent so effective that it eliminates these polsons, cleanses the system, allows your over.work- ed kidneys to resume their normal fune- tions, and just a few days’' treatment with “Anuric” will convince you because it brings lasting relief to your painful, aching rheu- matle joints—no more backache or diszy spells. Try it NOW and be convinced.—Adv. gfl%flflfi?11IlllllllllliillIIIHIHII . > D |||||IW I I Snug fitting and loose back styles for early Fall wear.
