When eighteen years of age Char
law Tullv came to western Nebraska
from Fremont. For the past thirty
two seal's he has been a leader in 1 1
fairs d this end of the state. His
life ws founded on fair business
dealings and by integrity and ability
be rose to a position of Influence and
wealth Prominent in the ranching
industry he became interested in
other lines and al the lime of his
death was Interested In the banking
business, in the Plain Iron Works t

pany. In which he carried a nolle)
for 110,000, in the Alfalfa Land
Company at Hay Springs and in the
Prpwther Kecii Mercantile Company
of Lakeside
a prominent member of the Dem
ocratic party. Mr. Tully was alwayi
willing to do his part in bearing the
political burden. He look HI nek in
terest ill politics and attended the
Democratic national convention at
Kt Louis in 1916 On Fiida be
fore ins death he had baa notified
by Governor Keith Neville of his ap
pointment hs a member of the newlv
created permanent tate forest com
mission, and had decided lO accept
of his early years did not lead him
to college halls, but he was a ripe
scholar of the university of the
plains. Early in life he began to
feel the stirrings of manhood and
soon he cast around for a wider field
in which to exercise his genius. He
felt the course of empire was west
ward. He came to the west, just at
that period when men of sterling
character were required as perhaps
in no other period of the history of
the west. Starting at the bottom,
where all true manhood finds its
lodgment, with youth and courage,
honesty, genius and aplication, he
began the struggle upward. Thru
the great labyrinth of difficulties
that always overshadows the path of
the successful, he finally reached the
top to become honored and trusted
by his fellow associates.
When men saw him crowned with
success and respect and love, no dif
ficulty was experienced in reading
the letters that marked his stepping
stones; youth, courage, application,
honesty, integrity, rectitude and
moral grandeur.
A man he was. A man he was
with marked leadership among men,
ready to give and take in the tests of
robust manhood, out in the trysts of
commercial or controversial life, a
citiien with a ring of opsitive utter
ance, like a sword blow clanging
against steel and a clear conscience
like a vision of chivalry. Hut a man
at his best after all he was, in his
warm heart for his fellow-men, ten
derest to those closest to him and
warming with its warmth of quiet
benefaction olrl friendships and went
over an area that no one knows.
And we who know him well feel
the singular felicity of that hymn,
Lead Kindly Light." Its music
came as an inspiration to Dr. Dykes
in the bustling London strand.
So strength and sentiment, a king
ly sceptre in business, and the heart,
sensitive to the sea and sky-depths
thru Which every life floats, it is my
prayer and yours, that he has found
tlie leading of the "kindly light."
Our church and community has
met with a treat and Irreparable loss
in our beloved friend and junior war
den. Always robust in health and
physiisilly strong. Mr. Tully's life
was one or great activity ano respon
sibility. At the close of last year,
lie began to show indications that his
great strength was breaking under
the load he was carrying With the
view of renewing this strength and
regaining his former health, he
spent fiarr wf the winter In Florida.

On Friday James told a Herald
reporter an interesting account of
many interesting experiences during
his term of service in the navy. On
account of the voluntary censorship

A large part of this lime was spent
on board the trophy ship of the

James will go to Chicago within a

Days to He Thrown In
Right now every reader of this
article should brand his mind with
three dates June 27, 28 and 29.
These are the dates when the biggest
of the big stockmen's celebrations
will be staged In Alliance. Three
days for a real "Old West" celebra
tion, when the old-time frontier
sports will be presented with all the
old-time enthusiasm and thrills. Al
Ifltnrc has become noted, and Justly
so, for its stockmen's conventions
and reunions. The annual Stock
men's Reunion this year will far sur
pass anything else of the sore ever
attempted.
Woi-thaill amival ..mint;
The great Wortham Carnival at
tractions including twenty big snd
splendid shows will be one of the
feature attractions of Stockmen's Re
union week. The shows will open
here on Monday, June 2f, and will
remain open continually until lale
Saturday night. There will bo
amusement for old and young,
amusements of every possible sort
and description.
An elaborate program has been
prepared for the afternoons of the
three days -Wednesday. Thursday
and Friday when the Reunion is In
progress Hundreds and hundreds
of dollars are being offered as prizes
for the winners In relay races, run
ning races, cowboy and cowgirl rac
es, wild mule races, bucking con
tests, etc. Contestants are needed.
An effort Is being made to secure a
large list of entries from among the
cowboys and cowgirls of the great
Nebraska panhandle. The money
will be "kept st home", so to speak.
The money Is here for those who will
come after it.
Wild Mules Needed
Mules are needed the wilder they
are the better. The sum of $15 and
keep will be paid for the use of each
and every mule taking part In the
three-day program. If you have
mules, here is an opportunity to se
cure some easy money. The first
mules brought in will be the first
tim s hired. Get into communication
with either H. M. Tiushnell. Jr., Sec
retary, or W. O. Barnes, superintend
ent of races.
Every man who enters the huck
Ina contests must bring his own an
imal, and horses and mules will be
hosen by lot. This means that the
owner of tlie animal win not. in un
probability, get a chance to ride his
own entry. All mules entered ani
II horses entered will share In the
irir.es.
