S. R. NICHOLS DIED IN RENSSELAER HOME

Former County Treasurer and Well Known Stockman and Farmer Succumbed to Disease. Samuel R.JSlichols, better known over the county by the name of “Doc”, died this Friday morning at his home north of the Monon railroad, 'at 5 minutes after 3 o’clock. He began to fail about two years ago, but kept up most of the time until the day following the burning of Balbcock & Hopkins’ elevator in August, when he took to his bed and his decline has 'Jjeontinued since that time. Brights disease, possibly complicated with other trouble, was the cause of death. Mr* Nichols is. survived by his second wife and by four children by his first marriage, namely, Alva Nichols, of New Florence, Mo., who has been here most of the time for several weeks; Orth Nichols, of some place in the west; Mrs. Hale Grant, of Spokane, 1 Wash., who has been here for several weeks, and Mrs. Bertha Bishop, of Czar, Alta., Canada. Another daughter, Mrs. Grace Leatherock, died about two years ago in Oklahoma. (Mr. Nichols was 68 years of age Oct. 28th, just two days before his death. He was born in Barkley township and lived there all of his life until he was elected county

treasurer when he came to this City, where he has since made his home. He served two terms as county treasurer, succeeding R. A. Parkison and being succeeded by J. D. Allman. Mr. Nichols lost heavily when the McCoy bank, failed, having had county funds oh deposit there. Again when the Parker bank in Remington failed he had large deposits there, but was saved from loss by the transfer of the Remington National Bank to Mr. Nichols’ bondsmen the day before the failure. “Doc” Nichols was a man of strict integrity and scrupulous honesty. He suffered some severe financial reverses that wepe- Tn no manner his own fault and he bore up under a load'ttrfft would have caused many men to give up. His squaretoed honesty and the nerve he displayed won many close admirers and he always had as his close friends the men who knew him the best, and there is genuine sorrow’ 'today among many of his closest associates, who had hoped that he might overcome his sickness and be spared for many years. The funeral of Mr. Nichols will be'held Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock at the late residence on North Dayton street. The Masonic order will have charge and Rev. Parrett, 0 assisted by Dr. Cumick, Will conduct the religious, service. Burial will be made in Weston cemetery.

Father Saurer Returns From Visit in Europe.

Father Theodore Saurer, prefect at St. Joseph's college for some time, who was in Germany when the present college term opened, returned one day this week and left yesterday for Nebraska Tity, Neb., where he has been asisgned as a priest. Father Siaurer remained 'or some time after the breaking out of hostilities and visited a number of battlefields and saw the terrible destruction of the war. The Republican was unable to see him after his return, but from others who talked with him we learn that the German people are certain that success will crown their cause. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are in training. Young boys to men of forty-five and older. Even the boy scouts are being used for guard duty, patrolling bridges and roads. The women are engaged at making Socks, mittens, caps and other things for the .ol'diers and the German people consider it a war thiat is certain to determine their continuance as a nation. With them it is not the Kaiser’s War but t-heir .own. They love the Kaiser and there never was a people more united for a cause than the Germans are. They are not so bitter toward France as they are toward England and Germans are hoping that they will be able to invade England. The people are filled with confidence and 5 old and young are determined to fight .the war to a finish at any sacrifice. Governor Ralston spoke in Monon yesterday.

HOW TO VOTE

There are a great many first Voters this year and a few instructions about marking ballots are appropriate There will be five ballots presented to each voter. The state ballot. The county ballot. The township ballot. The constitutional convention ballot. ■ The centennial eeWbnatton ballot. In the three ballots first named the democratic ticket appears as the first column, the republican ticket as the second column, the progressive ticket as the third column, etc. To vote a straight party ticket, make a cross within the circle containing the design of the party «.t the head of the ticket. Then do not mark it at any other place. If you write on it or mark it in any .manner except by the means of the crass you will spoil it. Some think that to mark the first square at the head of the Column means to vote for all the candidates but this is not the case. A anark of that kind votes for the name at the side of the square only. If you want to vote a mixed ticket do not mark in the circlet but make the cross in the square at the left side of each candidate you wish to vote for. If ycu vote for two candidates for the same office your ballot will be wasted. For instance, if you are a democrat, and want to vote for Judge Hanley, you make a cross in the square at the left of hits name and then in each square ait the side of all other candidates on the democratic ticket, unless there are other republicans you wish to vote for. fit you spoil your ballot, cal) the .fact to the attention of the election inspector.
