This program will be put on exclusively by students of the Central school. Roy li. Burns, who h;ul his right hand badly mashed in a cleaning ma chine last week, underwent a slight operation at St. Josrr.h'H hospital and has since brn confined to ills home it greiKor part of the tlir.e. i Lloyd's Column On the Peace Ship? The editor of the Times in refer ring to the editor of The Heral makes the following remark: "na that old editorial duffer returned? We thought he was on board tb peace ship with the rest of the nut" Did the editor of the Times see any squirrels at Hot Springs? No Show Recent graduate (to the man fc hlnd the desk): "What ere tkn chances for a young fellow beglnnlAg at the bottom and working up?" Man at the desk: "Poor. We'w contractors for digging wells." Ne braska Awgwan. A lady, no matter where, went U a store for a peck of apples, takiag what she supposed to be a newly laundered flour sack. She held th sack and the clerk poured the applea in, when they came streaming out tb other end. On examination It vu found there were two holes in tb bottom, both trimmed and embroid ered. The young man gave up tA ghost and the lady sent a small br for the apples with a basket B change. Dow Has a Double in Iowa. Clare A. Dow, of Alliance, whoa home for a number of years was at Iowa Falls, Iowa, has a double. Mr. Dow didn't know it until a kind friend of his sent him the following clipping from an Iowa paper thte week: "Clare Dow of this city is in jH at Boone, charged with breaking and entering a Milwaukee merchandUw car. He waived a preliminary hear ing and was bound over under J3M bond. The company .detectives work ing on the case claim that Dow la one of the three men apprehended while robbing a car. The trio bad the goods piled up on top of a box car when they were found by tae train crew." Our friend Dow says that he hasat yet found it necessary to help himself to jail by the box-car route and hopus that his namesake will brace op. Neer Again for Bill "Old Bill" Pryor Is an AIIUhmm character who is known for his wlttf sayings and droll ways. Bill is a staunch Missouri Democrat. Tarn other day one of the Republican can didates for office in this county mad the mistake of asking ill for am support. This candidate happened to be running for the Republic. nomination for sheriff. "Wal, said Bill, "I nuver voted the Republican ticket but wonce in muh life. A friend of mine was runnin' for sheriff on the Republican ticket down aa suthern Missou. He begged me vote fer him un I broke muh rule aa did so. Shortly afterwards I was out coon buntin' in the woods na I chased uh coon in a holler log. I crawled In after suh coon an got hiai by the tail. When I started to crawl out muh coat riz up around mnk shoulders un I wuz stuck tight. 1 wriggled and pushed a tryin' taa slide out but there was nuthin' dola'. Then I lay there an hour or two ua I begun tun think of everything meaa I ever dun in muh whole life. Final ly I cum down to late events and I tho't uf votin' the Republican ticket fer that guy. It made me feel a small that 1 thrunk right up in ma close and slid out o' that log withoat touchin the sides. Now, mister," concluded Bill, "do you think I'd ever vote the Republican ticket again?" A Leader of Men? The esteemed editor of the Alli ance Times, after reading his indict ment in the last issue of The Herald, based on his actions through bw newspaper for the past two or thr weeks, turned two or three back Hia llops. "reneged" on his statemeaai made through his newspaper, and ac cuses the editor of The Herald af taking up the side of "the gambler, the harlot and the crook. " As a champion "flipilopper" this gentW man deserves the medal. As a lead er of men we, like others, have oar serious doubts. We have yet to tee the editor 'of The Herald lie behind the doors of his home "all night wltek a gat (six-shooter) ready to shoat ! ofT the block of the first officer of ta? law" who came to recover the raia jing giite receipts of a fake wrestlla; ; match and which, so far as we hav ' been able to learn, have not yet beea ' returned to those who attended aad i were promised their money back. I If the editor of the Times could "get by" with some things which he ea- deavura to put over he would he counted as a great man, but whea . candidates on his own ticket find K necessary to go to him and request ; him to cease his attacks on other caa- didates because he is "making votes for them" we would suggest that he : bury his hammer and get a spade and with said spade endeavor to bury I some of the past which insists creeping out now and then, j The Scottsbluff Republican had the ' following to say in a recent Issue ia answer to an article by the aforesaid by that city: The Alliance Times seems to think that the census taken by our city is not true, and says it will have to. see a map of the city before it will he convinced that we have the number we represent. The trouble with the editor of the Times is that be ha been so busy fighting the Herald af that city, he has not been keeping ua with the development of the country outside of his own domicile. While he has been trying to make it appear that his paper is better than the Her ald he has been losing a lot of space that would have been used to better advantage in boosting for a bigger and a better Alliance. And wha knows, had he have done so, bat what he might have been able to have still held Alliance the leading city ia the western part of the state. Never mind, brother Sallows, it will nat hurt Alliance to play Becond fiddle for awhile. You will get used to it all right.
