Kohrer was a.sked why his men
made no arrests of pwple celebrating
Hew Year's in the old-fashioned way.
"Was anybody drinking?" Kohrer
countered.
"They had Itottles with liquor labels
and the liquid smclled like liquor," he
was reminded.
"That's just the point," Rohrer Raid.

DOES NOT APPROVE
THE SPECIAL SESSION
' LINCOLN E. P. Beach, former
chairman of the state republican com
mittee, and on of the war horses in
the proposed special session of the leg
islature as planned by Governor Mc
Kelvie. Discussing, in brief, his ideas,
3ie says: .,...
."If the republicans of Nebraska
permit their representatives in the
coming special session of the legisla
ture, to pass a law putting a tux on
gasoline, for the people to pay, or any
additional tax on anything, they will
have wiped out the last hope the party
may have had for carrying a single
county in the state election this yea.
"Sammy R. McKelvie, now in the
Governor's office, has led the last
two legislatures around by the nose
and in addition to jumping state ex
penses from $9,000,000 to $30,000,000,
a biennium, the limit formerly placed
on local taxation has either been rais
ed or removed entirely.
"It is not expected that the gover
nor, who has no sense of political de
cency or respect for the rights of
others, will do anything to lessen the
tax burden that he is largely respon
:ma fnr. The 100.000 republicans
who repudiated McKelvie in 1920 could
c-asily be multiplied by two at this
limn. nd if anv more schemes are
1 etched out to increase taxes which are
t.-jw in pome cases confiscatory, the
' fiances of a republicau candidate this

proverbial now-ball in Hades,

On account of the disturbance that
has recently occurred in the communi

that is not talk too much witn tneir
mouth, while still others, who are in
the still business and have decided to
keep still, so long as they can still keep
out of the still quiet places Kepi ior
people who still persist in keeping still
even though they try ' to keep still
about such said stills.
The trouble seems to be that the
who try to keep it still by hiding it
away, in such an upset condition that
they can't keep still. It smells strong,
it sounds so loud and draws together
so that officers iust drop in to see
what the excitement is for fun and
well everybody ia so surprised and
trouble ensues. Some funny stories
are then told.

A NEW FIRM
Virgil Lehr, now owner of the Fourth Street Market and
II. Hirst, former owner, have entered into a partnership and
will, about February 15, open a brand new
Cash and Carry Store
CALLED
"Box Butte Market"
the building formerly occupied by the Morgan Grocery Co.
By conducting the two stores, we will be able to buy our
goods for less money and to handle some items for less
money and to handle some items in carload lots. The same
prices will be maintained at both stores as far as possible
and the new store will be arranged the same as the Fourth
Street' Market, so any customer so desiring can wait upon
themselves. The same policies, as in the past, will be carried
out in each store. Cash for all we buy Cash for all we sell
a large volume of business on a small margin of profit.
These stores will not be controlled by any organization
nor wholesale house, but owned and conducted by Lehr and
Hirst. We will try to give courteous treatment and the
best of service to each and every customer and will be glad
to have you visit our stores whether you buy or not.
