County Notes.
Fro in Republican.
The republicans of this county li:ive
by fur the best ticket and it should re
ceive a majority ol the votes tit the No
vember election.
Maynard Spink as county superin
tendent, has given the best of satisfac
' ion and will nave a lare majority in his
favor at the November election.
Wm. Pool for recorder, will not only
carry the republican vote, but almost
every man who knows him will lay aside
party affiliations and c;o-t their vote for
as iood a man as ever camo before the
county for any office.
Calvin Hussell is so wel. known all
over the county, that it is not necessary
to say much for him. There could be no
better man placed in the position of pro
bate jude than Mr. C. He has excr
i,ed his able ability t ) thj entire satis
faction of those do'i'g business with him
for the past four years.
The republican no ninee for county
clerk, is a young man, o2 years old. was
born near Shreve, Ohio, and came to
Nebraska in 1880 with his parents, re
turned to Ohio the same year and was
married. In September of that year he
bought a small farm in Center precinct,
within one half mile of the center of Cass
county, where li3 h as resided since, farm
ing in the summer and teaching school
iu the winter. lie has been an advocate
of republican principles and a voter of
the republican ticket ever since he be
came a voter. Has always takeu a prom
inent part in the politics of the county
and has been sent as a delegate from
bis precinct to every county convention
since coming to Nebraska. lie is a son
of a veteran of the late war. Mr. Critch
field is well thought of in "this part of
the county and is known to be well
qualified for the position of county
clerk, there is no reason why he should
not receive the full republican vote, ne
will make as good a clerk as the county
ever had.
G. W. Young, of Mt. Pleasant pre
cinct is the republican nominee for com
missioner of the second district bf the
county. Mr. Y'oung has proved his abil
ity as a financier, lie came to Nebraska
several years ago without a dollar and
has, by his hard work and frugal man
agement accumulated a handsome prop
erty and is now one of the well to do
fanners of the county. No one has ever
doubted Mr. Young's honesty and integ
rity, and if elected, and there shonl 1 be
no "if" about it. will make an able,
honest, upright (.fiiccr. Mr. Foltz has
made a g"od of.lcer. Bat when the re
publicans have a majority of the votes
and have a good man why not ljt the
democrat co.

W. II. Pool is a republican. lie be
longs t the party having the most votes.
He is competent in every way and shape
for caring for the office of recorder.
The energetic sheriff of CaSs county

made a record as a thief catcher that i
hard to loat. "When he sects on a trail
he follows his yict-im until he runs him
into the shade of the prison walls.

at that time moved to Wabash, resid.'ng
there until this spring. He 13 a man
capable of caring for the records of our
courts, and commands the respect and
confidence of the voters of Cass county
Items of Interest-
From the Ashland Gazette
Maynard Spink, the Republican candi
date for County Superintendent of Cass
county, is deserving of the compliment
paid him by the convention of that coun
ty. He was renominated by acclamation,
Mr. Spink is an able, conscientious offic
ial. We don't believe he has an enemy
anywhere and from conversations with
citizens of that county we have every
reason to lelieve that he will be re-elected
by a much larger majority than he re
ceived two years ago.
Last Sunday, the Dth inst., a man from
Grenwood, Iowa, came to the livery barn
of Swerdfeger & Co., of this city, and
represented that his team had been stolen
and the thief had crossed the Missouri
liver Friday night with the team. He
engaged Mat to assist him in capturing
the thieves. Haying ascertained that
they had not passed through either Ash
land or Greenwood, they took the road
to Plattsmouth and were successful in
finding the team and the thief as they
were camping for dinner, four miles
north of Manly. As they succeeded in
getting the team, and the man had his
wife and family with him they decieded
to let the party go free.
L. II. Vandeman and some friends
succeded in capturing a fine deer last
Sunday. Mr. Vandeman was going over
to J. M. Taylor's, who lives about two
miles north-west of Greenwood, and was
a short distance from the place when he
hoard the dogs barking. It was a few
minutes until they noticed that a deer
had the dog down, aud was getting the
better of the canine. The deer started
and run, but was hemmed in by a hedge
fence. Hie dog again overtook it, and
the dog again got the worst of the en
counter, when Mr, Vandeman and John
Ilartsuek came to the assistance of the
dog and captured the fleet footed deer.
This office acknowledges the receipt of a
large piece of the meat, through the kind
ness of Mr. Vandeman.

The Sackett-Monroe Wedding
One cf those pleasant, happy social
events which are enjoyed more than any
other through the course of life, took
place at the r sidence of W. J. Monroe
in this city, on the evening of October
3th. Handsome invitations had been out
for a fortnight announcing the event,
and giving 8 r' clock of aforesaid even
ing as the hour. Some time before the
hour, the friends began to fill the house,
many bringing with them appropriate
and beautiful tokens of love and good
will for the worthy young couple.
Promptly at eight, ' the notes of the
.vedding march announced to the as
sembled friends that the moment had
arrived for the marriage ceremony.
During the rush that followed the music,
Rev. Geo. Ilindley, entered the parlor
followed by the bride and groom, all
non" rose to their feet, when in a few but
impressive words, Mr. E. A. Sackett and
Miss Nellie Monroe were pronounced
husband and wife, which was followed
by a most earnest prayer. After the cer
emony, congratulations were in order
and more than a hundred persons we
should say, shook the hands of the hap
py pair and wished them joy.
A bountiful supply of coffee, cake and
fruit was served, and the party without
exception seemed bent on having a jolly
good social time. Quite a number ac
companied the. bride and groom to the
depot where they took the 10:40 St. Louis
train for Ohio and Indiana, where ti ey
will remain for about a month, visiting
relatives and places of interest. Wep

Birthday Celebration.
Judge Russell, of tho county court,
oassed the eixtv-third mile-stone in the
journey of life to-day.
Mrs. Russell planned and successfully
executed a surnrise in honor of the oc-
casion. Iu response to invitations pre
viously sent out, a small company of the
judge's intimate friends assemnled at his
residence on Chicago avenue and Ninth
street, and when he went at the accus
tomcd hour, to dinner he was surprised
to find them there awaiting his arrival.
The company consisted of the follow
ing named gentlemen: J. W. Johnson,
McElwain, Wash. Smith, S. A. Davis, J.
C. Eikenbary, W. 13. Alexander and A.
N. Sulivan.
After extending congratulations to
Jange Russell upon the success of his
journey thus far, and wishing him many
future happy birth-days, altogether sat
down to a delightful repast, of which
they partook to their intense delight.
Tho dinner over, an hour or more was
spent in pleasant conversation, during
which were related many interesting and
amusing anecdotes, and incidents more
or le s intimately connected with the ex
periences of those present.
The occasion was altogether a pleasant
and interesting one.
Following are some of the facts of in
terest that were developed:
The oldest man present was the Judge
himself; the next oldest was Judge John
son, and the youngest. Judge Sulivan,
the former fifty-two, the latter, thirty-
nine, both of them having formerly ec
cupied the place now filled by Mr. Rus
bjII. The combined ages of the company
was 3S0 years, the average age being
fourty-seven and one-half years.
Judge Rusell was born in Niagara
county, New Y'ork and moved with his
father's family to Ohio, when nina years
old, thence in his twenty-first year he
came west, stopping for a year aud a
half in Iowa, from thence he went to
Wisconsin where he worked at his trade
of wagon making until he came to Neb
raska about twenty years ago. For the
last twenty years he has been a resident
of Cass county and closely identified
with the interests thereof. Kis popu
larity with the people, and his character
are clearly indicated by the fact that he
is now closing his second term in '
his present official position and
has the nomination of the re
publican party for a third term. He
has been a man of uniforui good health,
never having spent a day in bed from
sickness for more than thirty -five years.
Although having reached an advanced
age, the prospect is good with him for !
many years of active service.
He is an honest, upright man, a ;
wyothy citizen, and a careful and pains
taking official. Long may he live to en
joy life and bless others. j

A Hastings Paper Sold.
From Friday's Daily.
In yesterday's issue of the Hastings 1
Dai :i 2itics, a bright and newsy morn
ing paer just "8 days old we read its
valedictory, as far as Hastings is con
cerned. The editor and proprietor
states in the first three lines the entire
newspaper outfit has been sold and will
be moved from the city. Since the edi
tor is an escential part of a newspaper
outfit, it looks like he had been included
in the sell, in tim case. Now if it is a
fact that an editor gets sold when he
starts athird daily paper in Hastings, it is
so much against her.
The editor winds up his valedictory
by stating that it is not with regret
that he leaves his position.
The Daily News was an excellent four
page paper and was indeed a credit to
Hastings, and in its loss Hastings looses a
valuable advertisement. The out-come
of the sold p'ant will be awaited with
interest.
