Some of our citizens are discussing
the advisability of calling a mass meet
ing to consider the range question.
While in all probability this questiqn
will be decided in Washington and
local resolutions, etc., have but little
or no effect, it might be well for each
community to express its opinion of
the proper solution formally und for
ward It to Washington. The present
agitation of the question is the result
of the anxiety of the government to
preserve the public lands to the people
of the country. It is extremely im
probable that there will be any change
in public policy. Therefore it is fair
to assume that in tho near future the
fences will come down and it is for
those to be affected to adjust them
selves to the new conditions as rapidly
as It Is possible for them to do so.

The Alliance fire department is making
strides in the matter of being equipped
and prepared for anything of the nature of
a conflagration that may occur. Perhaps
thetwo or three fires of recent dates may
have something to do with it although the
department has been more than amply
able to cope with any fires that have
broken out; and, moreover, the occupation
tax paid by the fire insurance companies
that are doing business in the cilv is now:
available to expend for anything required
by the department. Chief Blackburn has
just purchased 600 feet of new hose, mak
ing 1500 feet in all. A portion of the old
hose is somewhat worn, so that the new-
hose was considered a necessity, as in se
vere weather worn mrt. nf h hn
might freeze and render the company un
able to give assistance when needed. A
meeting in the city council chamber has
been called for December 24. The com
pany is not full now and the chief ureentlv
desires sufficient enlistments to fill it to
the required number, enlistments orefera-
bly to be from the ranks of the business
men of the city.
JULES SANDOZ IN LI.MIIO.
Sheridan County Man. Well Known In Al
liance. Thinks tic Ought to Be In
Congress Instead of in Jnil.
A special to the daily papers from Rush
vilie under date of December 16, has the
following to say of Jules Sandoz, an eccen
tric individual who resides northeast of
Alliance; "Jules Sandoz, who was found
guilty of assaulting a couple ot his neigh
bors by shooting a rifle in their direction,"
or at them, and fined $100 and costs and
who is being confined in jail until the same
is paid, was before the court today with a
motion which read as follows:" 'I want my
judgment arrested at once because how
could I assault my neighbors when a quar
ter of a mile away. Do this and I will
ever pray.' When he was t'old that his
motion was overruled he said: 'Sheriff, I
and Roosevelt are just alike. ' He is a
western man; he is a hunter, he is a good
shot, he is self-educated, but he is, presi
dent and I am a prisoner.' Jules is a great
hunter and expert marksman and it Is said
he has killed more wolves and skunks than
any man in Nebraska. Since the court
would not arrest' his sentence, Jules puts
in a good deal of his time figuring out how
long it will take him after he eets out to
make .his fine and costs shooting evolves.
skunks and coyotes. He also figures on
writing a book entitled 'The injustice of
America to a genius and scholar who ought
to be in congress, but is in jail"
NEW PAPER AT FREMONT.
Will M.MaupIn will be Principal Editorial
Writer.
A special to the News-Herald from Fre
mont, Dec. 16, says: There will be a newr
democratic paper started in Fremont about
January 1. Waldo Wintersteen will be
the principal owner and manager of the
paper, and about twenty democrats
through the county will hold stock in the
corporation. Will Maupin of Uncoln
will be the principal editorial writer, but
will not remove to Fremont.
The capital stock of $4,000 has all been
subscribed and the stockholders will hold
their first meeting the last of this week or
the first of next to decide on a name for
the paper, and the frequency of its publi
cation. It will be either a tri-weekly or a
daily and may be both. The projectors
are all well known democrats."
Mr. Maupin's writings in. The Herald
during the last six months is evidence to
the people of this section tbat the new
company has made ho mistake in the se
lection of an editorial writer. The news
paper men of the state look up to Will
Maupin. Success to the new enterprise.
Just Alike, Only Different.
State Treasurer Stuefer boasts that be
cause of the investment of all school funds
he will have no cash to turn over to his
successor. One of his predecessors tried
also to reduce the amount of cash he would
have to turn over, only he experimented
with another plan. Omaha Bee.
Yes, and if Mr. Stuefer had experi
mented with the "other plan'- no doubt he
would be turned loose by a republican
governor to take part in Nebraska politics
as Joseph Bartley was.
