To Tho Public.
I liopc St will not be too much of a
surpilse to the insny friends and pat
rons of Tim 1 1 i:u AM) when I inform
them of a business transaction between
the undersigned and Mr, W. S Rakor
of Grotnn, Neb., by which for a good
and sufficient mouutary consideration
Tins Herald from tho present date be
comes the property of the latter gentle
man. During tho ten years of its pub
lication in Box Butte county Tun Hint
4ALM has built up for itself a reputation
second to none of the journals published
outside of tho citiosof thu metropolitan
class.
It is almost impossible for mo to ex
press sufficiently my appreciation of
tho good will and patronage which I
have L variably leceived from a gioat
majority of tho citizens of Box Butte
county, and especially from the busi
ness and professional men. I have
labored earnestly to promote the best
interests of this county and that my
efforts were appreciated is eviduueed
by the business I have built up and by
the flattering offer which induced me
to patt with it.
The gentleman under whose auspices
Thij Hbkald will be guided in the
future will, with his family form a
welcome addition to the citizenship of
Alliance. Ho is an experienced news
papar man, u well known and in
fluential citizen of the eastern pait
of the state and brings with him a
reputation for integrity and ability
which will prove tho best guarantee of
success.
While in 11 certain sense I 1 egret
severing my connection with Tin: Her
ald, because it has grown up under my
care, I feel confident that in the futuic
it will stand up for everything tending
to promote the welf.110 and prosperity
of northwest Nebraska. I wish it every
success and the continued patronage of
its many friends in Box Butte county.

Thu political complexion of The
Herald in the future will be tepubli
cau and it shall be my endeavor to make
its editorial columns one of the intciest
ing features of the paper. Time and
space piohibit a more extended an
nouncement at this time. I shall be
glad to have you call at The Hekld
office and become better acquainted.
Very Respectfully,
W. S. Raker.
The Washington correspondent to
the World'Hcrald says that on the oth
instant Representative Kiukaid intro
duced another bill which proposes to
tinker with what is known as the Kin
kaid act having to do with the unappro
priated and unreserved public lands in
Western Nebraska. Upon the day of
the opening of the present session, Mr.
Kinkaid presented a bill in the house
which authorizes entrymen to this land
to increase their homestead to 640
acres by entering pieces of land on the
sides of their present holdings. His
latest bill is to permit these homestead
ers to also acquire "corner lands," or
pieces of land at or near the comer of
their holdings as well as pieces of land
on the sides. Secretary Hitchcock
reported adversely to congress on the
first proposition, and it is thought he
will do likewise on the second.

Mis. A. H. Pierce has been very ill
this week, but is now much better.
Ole Hedgecock ran the barber shop here
last week during the absence of Mr.

James Waisner spent one day here this

The cost of dwelling house insurance is

The Marple Literary club met at the
Manion homestead a few days ago. There
were more than fifty present and a most
excellent and entertaining session was held.
James Potmesil was unfortunate enough
to lose a S20 bill out of his pocket while on

promptly to its owner.
Friday evening a coon party at the resi
dence of Principal Baker was a "howling
success." Each of the young persons
present dressed .as a darky and to judge
from the racket no darkies ever had more
fun. Some of the young men about town
assisted in the celebration with blank
cartridges.
Our merchants are selling goods to a
sister town of larger dimensions than ours
and shipping them down to the retail
trade at local freight. It looks like their
prices ought to be nearly right to enable
them to do this. It is worthy of note too,
that lumber is being freighted overland at
a considerable saving. Stand up for
Hemingford,
The time to insure your livestock is now
when the number is low. They are put in
at an average of a fixed amount and when
the unmber is small the cost is corre
spondingly small. Actual value of stuff
killed by lightning or burned, prompt
adjustment, cash as soon as adjusted, old
line companies, and many other advant
ages. Think it over. K. L. Pierce, Agt.
Remember the all day farmers' institute
to be held here the 18th inst. Noted
speakers from abroad furnished by the

efit from this meeting. It Is hoped to
make a permanent organization at this
time and continue the work in the future

Moses Johnson's little daughter, Laura,
aged six and one-half years was accident
ally killed in the switch yards at Stans-
berry, Mo., on Dec. 21,1904, It seems
she failed to see or hear an approaching
switch engine with several cars attached.
The brakeman made an heroic effort to
save her and was knocked senseless trying
to reach her. All the cars passed over her
body at the waist. Mr. Johnson and fam
ily lived formerly on a farm seven miles
northeast of here. He was an M. W. A.
and still keeps his memDership here. The
M. W. A., and people generally mourn
with him in his affliction.
