STEVENS & BARE, Editors and Props. SATURDAY. MAY 26 , 188a Recent ruling of the land de partment of this "reform" adminis tration are likely to increase the Republican majority in this state to more than 50,000. We shall haye something to say on this subject in the near fiiture. Billy Mullane of the Ogalalla News is trying his. hand at interpo lating Democratic ideas into the proceedings of the Republican con Tention of Keith county. The Roaring Muldoon should confine his remarks to the editorial columns. Fkom the way the Democrats are opening, this is to be a campaign of monumental lies and forgeries on their part. They started out by forging a portion of the Republican platform, while the story about the O'Neil convention of Republicans prefering Cleveland is pure fabrica tion. Is this to be a "Morey letter" campaign Papers ostensibly Republican but too good to tram in the ranks ot -tne party, are intimating tnat v an Wyck is a daik horse candidate for senate, and that the question will be Yan Wyck or anti-van Wyck. Of course the old man is a candidate and always will be; but he will cut no figure in the race. In the elec tion of Senator next winter the party will be divided thus: Mander son and anti-Manderson, and the anti-Manderson's will be left. The Democrats of this city have organized a Cleveland club. We would not be surprised to hear of the formation of a Democratic club for the members of the old worm eaten party know they will want one long before tne campaign is over, but the making of a Cleveland club was hardly expected. The fat man's lieutenants about the land office have propablv received the hint. Mr. Rayxor, of Sidnev, better known as Judge Heist's partner, on the authority or the Kimbal Observer, will be urged by his friends to become a candidate for the legislature. Slate makers have generally arranged that Chey enne county shall have the repre sentative with the understanding that Judge Neubauer will be the candidate. Slate makers propose but the people dispose. Possibly they will say that Mr. Raynor is the coming man. Representative district No. 54 under the apportionment of 1887 consists of the counties of Lincoln Keith, Perkins and Chevenne Previous to that Lmcoln county constituted a representative district by itself. The population of the four counties is perhaps fifty thous and. The district is over two hundred miles long and abou seventy miles wide more than twice as large as the state of Con necticut. The apportionment is verv unevenly arranged. For instance, Buffalo connty, with less than half the population, has two representatives, while most of the small counties south and east of us have one each. "There are quite a number of active Democrats here who intend to do some hard work this presi dential year, and in view of that fact ana also that the parties are pretty evenly divided in Lincoln county the Republican club will have to hump itself to get there." The above is an extract from a special dispatch to the Lincoln Journal, but it conveys a wrong impression when it says the parties are pretty evenly divided. At last fails election Judge Maxwell re ceived 376, majority, and Evans for clerk 433. That does not look as though the parties were pretty evenly divided. But still the Re publicans of Lincoln county propose to "hump" themselves all the same and roll up 500 majority towards tne oU,UUU tnat JNeDrasKa proposes to give the next President of the United States. f THE WHANGDOODLE MOUftNETH. Nebraska Republicans are making a record this year, at which Honesty and Intelligence may well hide their modest faces and blush. In the second congressional district, they have nominated a scamp and in the third a fool, to represent the people of Nebraska in the national legislature, Laird and Dorsey. Who will be put up in the first district is yet to be seen. Their delegates to the national convention do not represent anything in the world but the different railroad corporations doing business in the state.' At the state convention on Tuesday, Van Wyck introduced a set of resolu tions denouncing trusts, monopolies, high taxes and railroad interference in the affairs of the state, but.he was hooted and snubbed and told to take his resolutions over to the democrats. Broken Bow (Dem.), Statesman, A recent dispatch from Pueblo, Colorado, says: "James Burrows, who was arraigned before the crim inal court for the killing of I. P. Olive, in Southern Colorado, about six months ago, was acquitted by the jury on the ground of self defense." Is the above I. P. Olive who w$ttmktmMmm&i and burning l6i "Eetchum" an Mitchell, two homesteaders in Custer county a few years ago? SCHOOL NOTES. BY THE COUNTY SUPT. The patrons of the school in district 29 are quite proud of both it and their teacher, Miss Johnson, is giving satisfaction, and while' she has little experience, she has quali- ties wmcn ieaa to success in every department of life. Energetic, conscientious, and careful she is bound to make a successful 'edu cator. District 42 has lately purchased an abundant supply of school desks, and other furniture and placed it in their school house. When the county superintendent visited the school in this district, they were almost entirely devoid of seats and every other requisite, and it is a pleasure to know that this want has been overcome. It is apparent that much greater interest is taken in school matters now, than at any previous period in the history of the county. School Dist. No. 4, of which Mrs. Maggie Robson is the director, will soon have their new school house completed. Furniture for the same has already been purchased; and to notice the energy and business ability displayed by the director, comes very nearly making another convert to "woman's rights." It is certainly a fact, that wherever there is a lady director, an impetus is given to educational affairs which should put to blush the oppsite sex, who are so prone to think no lady quite so smart as they. The school directors throughout the county, a few weeks ago, were notified by circular letter that no nersnn should ha emnlnvpd fo ffarh C .

I d.-j. i.-i l i .dug ram is wnac we want ior it will bring us good crops. Farmers are busy planting corn, the acreage of which will be large in this precinct. While plowing the other day Claus Johnson had two wolves keep following him in the furrow, and when they would get too near he would hurl a file at them. Mr. and Mrs. Olaf Johnson were made happy on the loth by the ar rival of a girl baby. Tom Marcott gets around quite lively collecting Gaslin's cream for the North Platte creamery. It looks like business. Last Sunday was pie-plant day at Mrs. C. Brown's, nearly all who went there to spend the day bring- not h- WALLACE. From the Herald. Station Agent Bardon stayed on the passenger train too long Wed nesday evening and when jumping off stumbled and fell. His heal struck'on a tie and was badly cut. At first it was thought the wound would prove serious, but we are glad to say he is all right now and at his Sost as usual. Dr. L. C. Lenon ressed the wound.. A weekly star route from Wallace to Culbertson commences today. It goes by way of Keeler, Hayes Centre and Blaskwood, and will arrive for the first time this evening at 7:15 and return the next morn ing at b o'clock. This will be a great convenience to our citizens who have dealings along the route. and will greatly facilitate commu nication with Hayes Centre. The republican rally was quite a success last Saturday night, the programme published last week being earned out without a hitch. A large number of ladies were present. Besides the regular speakers Messrs. Bentley. Harper, and Hatcher were called upon and made short speeches in favor of the cause. Messrs. Shaw, Hatcher and Wilson were appointed a committee to solicit new names for the club, report excellent success thus far. Music, instrumental and vocal, was a part of the programme, and was much appreciated. The next meet ing is fixed for. one week from to morrow night. who GASLIN. GrASLD-, Mav 22, The man says it don't rain in Nebraska is a worse liar than Eli Perkins. The rain has had a bad effect on nearly all the sod houses in this vicinity. They look as though some one had pounded from the roof down to the floor, and it makes us farmers feel teacher was engaged who had no certificate, and the result is the district is now without a teacher and without a school. All parties should distinctly understand that the county superintendent will not issue a certificate, nor will one be endorsed for any person who takes a school without the necessary cer tificate. The following school districts, 3, 5, 9, 20, 30, 33, 34, 48, 49, 51, and 55, have not yet made any report to the county clerk, of the tax levied for school purposes as required by the school law. While it is not absolutely necessary that this report should be in before the first of June, it is poor policy to wait until 1.1 . - i l- I """ opii. tne last moment, expecting every - home a There fa aay to attend to it and at last sailing ing libe bem neighboriv, nj wjj. iauic a uc; vcou auu uiuou prompt way is to send in the tax levied when the census report is re turned, then at once sending answers for both, and no further difficulty is experienced.

The Vernon, Mich., Interlake says: in the minds of the farmers in this vicinity as to which is best; to sell their cream at a creamery or sell their milk at a cheese factory. A conversation with Seldon Phelps of Venice, will, if considered, throw some light on the subject. He says PLEASANT HILL. From the Paxton Pilot. The click of the corn planter can be heard in all directions. Some that he weiched his milk for awhile are planting over.

Thus 1,000 cows in anv locality which one creamery could very well serve would yield at even the pres ent lamentable low rates per head, about 125,000 pounds of butter per season, mat would onng into the locality $7,500 more money or value than an equal quantity of dairy butter. J3y allowing an equal in crease of value for the butter pro duct of every 1,000 cows in the whole butter making area of the Province, a fair estimate may be formed of the possible value of the creamery industry to the farm ers of Ontario m only one of its aspects. r i i i i a .oeiow we give tne products ot a herd of Short-Horns owned by H. is a right.
