From t'.ie moment it was announced
that a special election was to be call
el, The Chief had no hope that the
bonds would carry. However, we did
not look for any such a landslide
against the bonds. Py their votes the
people of lied Cloud showed their re
alization of the gravity of the situa
tion and the peril in which the valu
able records of the county arc being
placed by being housed in a tinder box.
and our nearest neighbors on the south
in line township, also showed that
they hud a correct understanding of
the situation.
It is not dilliciilt to understand why
Potsdam, Oak Creek. Klin Creek and
tttillwatorsliould be against the bonds,
btit it is surprising that the voters of
Pleasant Hill, (Juiile Rock, liartield.
Walnut Creek and Inavale should have
given the bonds-such a black eye, in
view of their proximity to the county
scat and their knowledge of conditions
at the court house.
Several factors contributed to the
defeat of the bonds:
First -Indignation at the calling of
special election
Second Opposition to voting bonds
of any kind.
Third The cry of "graft" and the
fear that someone would get more out
of the deal than the other fellow.
Fourth The contention' that the
amount asked for was too much.
Fifth A general desire to "soak"

can create a sinking fund without
asking the consent of anyone,, and it
is highly probable the latter action
will be taken.
The situation demands immediate
action, and should a sinking fund be
created it should be for SI 00.000. in
older that the county may have a
building suitable to its needs.

BLUE HILL'S DREAM.
Has Hopes of Sometime Becoming the i
County Sent.
Tho following article from the Hast
ingsJRopublicun explains in part the
attitude of Pino Hill on the eonrt
ltonse proposition:
"A loading citizen of 111 no Kill (ells
the Republican that enterprising citi-
z,.s of nine Hill are becoming more
anil more convinced tliat logically and j
i,v rights the county scat should be at
IMne Hill instead of Fled Cloud. The
wiutherii half of Webster county is
vtiVi' "B' "MV HlPMly settled and
"u ,r,MI1 uumS iJS ,t!,ulu II lartning
j country as the northern half. Two
i thirds of the population of the county
is north of the half dividing line. He
intimated the wav the tight was brew
ing the people of Red Cloud were liable
to wake up some morning and discover
that the wido-uwako and resourceful
Mine Hillites had planned a large coup
to have the seat of county government
moved from lied Cloud to Pine Hill,
the most enterprising and growing,
town between Hastings and the Ivan-
sns line."
That is the kind of talk that turned
i
manv votes against the bonds but it
is not argument. The only thing ap-'
proaehing argument is the statement
concerning the division of population, '
and it is the reverse from
the truth.

City Marshal Worsted.
I'Yankliu Sentinel.
For once City Marshal lohn David
son admits defeat, (siially when
John goes after a party he lauds tha
victim but last week when attempting
to take a certain individual in custody
he woefully bit the dust and this ex
pression applies literally as well as
llguratively. We think where the llrst
mistake was seeking to arrest the din-
turber without a warrant. Then too
it was a female he was after and as
all know man frequently comes out
second hest in an encounter of thit
kind, so.lohu really should have known
better than to tackle her ladyship un
assisted. She had made a nuisance of
herself; well, in fact, hail been running
at large for two days, and dually be
came so annoying that divers oiti.oiw
requested our peace preserver to make
an arrest hut.lidin couldn't do it alone.
Pohlly the marshal faced his duty,
however, and after an exciting ehaso
for fourteen blocks caught, the out
law, Moon's old familv cow, down
near (lorham's barn and attempted t
lead her to a post. The cow made it
hist desperate break for liberty. John
couldn't let go of the rope, his feet
assumed a perpendicular direction and
his breast struck the ground, render-
ing him for awhile hors tin combat.
To days at home were sulllcicnt for
repairs and (lie marshal is again on
duty, a sadder but wiser man, his in-
juries, by the way, amounting to a
bruised breast ami sevcrnl ribs which ,
feel.like they were cracked, though the
X-ray fails utterly to reveal any yawn
ing fractures. John says he'll secure
