A merry Christmas to all our
many readers.

ter the habit of clearing the
snow off your walks.

expert operator will be here next
Monday to install the machine,

pared than ever before to (tive
the people the new h ;ni(l do their

The more we think about it
the worse .we feel abOQl it, the
farce called a census of Hox
Btttte county. Although we
sounded a note of warning at the
time the enumeration was being
made and tried to get the Alii
anee Commercial Club to take
some action, it does not seem to do
our feelings any good to say. "I
told you so."
(leo. It. Mills of Cent ral City,
Nebr., superintendent of the
Grand Island district, of the Ne
braska Children's Home society,
gave an interesting address at a
union meeting at the Pint Pres
byterian church last Sunda.v ev
ening, and organized a local
board consisting of the following
named persons; I). W. Hughes,
Pres., J. N. Johnston, Vice Pres.,
v . it. tiirney. fnc. i reas., .virs. 1
Emma Martin. C. L.. Powell, (i.
W. Duncan, Mrs. A. T. I.unn,
Mrs. H. u, Carpenter.
It is now claimed by many Ne
braska ioliticians, who, have a
way of analyzing election re
turns and figuring out how it
happened, that Governoi -elect
Aldrich owes his election to the
campaign work done by Mayor
Dahlman, and we must confess
that it looks some like it. If we
had thought of it in time, we
would have suggested to the in
coming governor that he apioint
Mayor Jim chief oil inspector as
a political reward for services
rendered.
There was a large attendance
at the meeting of Lobster Club
No. 2, at the Burlington hotel
on Thursday night of last week.
The object of the meeting was
to arrange for the entertainment
of the firemen's convention next
month, and the way that object
was attended to spells success.
Indications point to one of the
greatest firemen's conventions
ever held in Nebraska, and our
city will give the hojfl a recep
tion that will make them glad
they gave us the convention.
