A lot of black-guards are in the ,

Saturday night of this week , J. A.

trict , will organize a lodge of A. 0. of

Cammon , J. E. Fancher , R. S. Cooley ,

Stiles and W. M. Anderson.
We wish to direct special attention
to the call , elsewhere appearing in this
issue , for a meeting of those interested
in forming a public library association.
Its importance and benefits are recog
nized by all our people , and we hope
that all will feel sufficiently enthused
over this matter to turn out and give
evidence of their disposition with regard
thereto.
The sermons delivered by Rev. Joel
Kelsey in the Congregational church ,
last Sunday morning and evening , were
instructive and interesting , and snowed
study and thought. Presiding-Elder
Johnson occupied the M.E.pulpitmorn-
ing and evening , with the usual happy
effect that his forcible , terse and prac
tical remarks always have.
Lightning struck M. A. Spalding's
residence , Monday night , during the rain ,
demolishing the , chimney , tearing quite
a hole in the roofahd , splintering things
generally in other parts of the structure.
The soot and rain ruined two carpets and
made everything else present quite a
homely aspect. M. A. is to be congratu
lated upon a fortunate escape from
bodily harm and more extensive damage
to property.
The dignifiedgenteel appearing gam
bler , who seeius to be doing business in
the rear of Saylor's saloon , thinks THE
TRIBUNE'S canonization of his gang of
toughs "wasted sweetness on the desert
air , " etc. This same pompous corpor-
osity is the same tin-horn , who was re
cently , fired out of Hastings for sundry
and scandalous crookedness , in the which
he was shot a number of times by a
fellow-tough. That he is allowed to
operate in this city , openly , is not an
honor to the Mayor , who made such fair
promises before his election , none of
which has he ever kept.
The Board of Education held a
special meeting , Saturday evening , to
take initiatory steps in some important
matters of difference existing between
the city council and the Board , etc.
Miss Jennie Jamison presented her res
ignation to the board which was accept
ed. Miss Sweet was elected to the
vacancy. Miss McNamara was also
elected to succeed Miss Rhatigan in
case the latter does not qualify. The
board has retained able counsel and
proposes to make an effort to secure
the $2,500 deposit money and the fines
which legally belong to the school
fund , but which have of late been un
lawfully diverted therefrom.
A coon story "as is a coon story"
is told by W. J. Evans of the Hat-
field ranch. It appears that their corn
crib has been repeatedly molested by
some animal , and hearing a great
racket in that direction the other night
Mr. Evans and two boys repaired
thither , armed with gun , pitchforks , etc.
Upon arriving on the scene of the dis
turbance a peculiar state of affairs met
their gaze there were 15 or 20 sly old
coons raising perfect old Ned in that
corn crib. Mr. Evans and sons boldly
waded in and in a short time succeeded
in killing 10 of the noisy little thieves.
Mr. Evans reports the Republican em
blem as being very numerous in his
vicinage.
Two wrongs never make a right. THE
TRIBUNE would suggest to the city coun
cil this means , legal means , out of their
present financial distress : Donate all
salaries , except those of the clerk and
treasurer ; hire but one police ; ( if our
business men want a night watchman ,
let them do so at their own expense ; )
buy a statute , and be your own legal
adviser. The above suggestion will
save the city an unnecessary expense ,
by the way , that the city cannot stand. i
Such measures as we have above men
tioned will ease up the strained condi
tion of our city finances , and make such
performances as it became our duty to
refer to , last week , unnecessary.
As will be seen as per change in busi
ness card , Messrs. C. W. Davis and J.D.
Turner have formed a co-partnership in
the land business , with headquarters at
the old stand. Mr. Davis comes with a
ripe experience of four years in the
general land office \YashingtonD.C. . .
tvhich has thoroughly prepared him for
his specialty difficult contest cases be-
Fore the local office and the department ,
n addition , Mr. Davis is an attorney of
year's experience , having served in the
capacity of district attorney in New
Fork state , with credit and ability. The
new firm will take rank among the fore
most of our land , loan and law firms , and
will doubtless secure their share in the
:
business in that line in this community.

THE COMMISSIONERSHIP.
In the pursuit of less important mat
ters , locally considered , let us not fail
to give the county commissionership the
Attention , ( in order that the proper man
for the position may be secured. ) that
that office requires at ourhands. . The
uommercial importance of the city of
McCook is such as to suggest the neces
sity of the commissioner for the second
iistrict coming therefrom. Not only
should he be chosen from this city , but
tie should be selected with reference to
his qualifications and fitness for the
position a position , in our opinion , of
the greatest moment at this stage of
jur growth and material advancement
jf every character. Let not this para
mount consideration be forgotten or neg
lected.

UNITED IN MARRIAGE.
,
Q r
One of those pleasant occasions wherein
two young and fond hearts are united occur
red at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Cronk-
hite , yesterday afternoon , the contractinc
parties bcin ; ; their clmnnhiff daughter Jennie
and Mr. JamesII. Burns. The beautiful cere
mony and the mystic words making them
man and wife were pronounced by Rev. W.
F. Ringland , president of the college. There
were no guests present , only the relatives of
both parties.The bride lias been a resident
of Hastings for several years , ever since her
father took charge of the B. & M. eating
house , and has in that tfitfo inado for herself-
many warm friends , and was a recognized
belle in her bet , and .she.is . well worthy tliB
man of her choice. Mr. Bums , the groom , is
an eflicient employe of the B. & M. company ,
and is one of the most steadfast and valuable
conductors. 1 le has steadily worked his way
upward and now enjoys the respect and con
fidence of his employers. Among his person
al friends he numbers most of our people ,
who admire him for his .sterling qualities.
The Gazette-Journal joins their many friends
in extendingcongratnlationsandgood wishes

ettle down in Hastings. Gazette-Journal.
Two or A KIND. On last Friday
morning , while Saint Peter was no doubt
enjoying the sleep of the righteous , in
the gentle embrace of soothing Morphe
us , two "little darlings" of Mother Eve's
adored genderstrayed without the pear
ly gates , ben ton a terrestrial tour , so the
record hath it. We have just received
information from a less celestial source
which goeth to the effect that the "young
ladies" are now being carefully nurtured
after the similitude of man , at the resi
dence of our sterling young friend Law-
son , whose surname is Will. Since the
above was put in type we are pained to
learn that one of the infants , too frail
for earth , Sunday night , returned to the
Father. The young people have the
sincerest sympathy of friends in this
their first sorrow.
Another gambling outfit operatedun
der license , on our street , one evening
the first of the week. Fortunately for
the suckers , the Chief of Police , at the
nstigation of citizens , closed the fellow
up before he had secured much money ,
[ t does not reflect great credit upon the
) resent city administration to license
such notoriously illegal skin games.
Although it is quite evident where the
Mayor's sympathies are. it is rather as
tonishing to what length of unlawful
procedure he will go.
I. P. OLIVE of Dodge City , Kansas ,
well known in Nebraska for his part in
he Custer county tragedy , one of the
bloodiest andmost sensational crimes
ever committed in this state , was killed
at Trail City , Colo. , yesterday , by Joe
Sparrows of that place , an equally noto
rious ruffian. Thus after many inter
vening years is the murder of Mitchell
and Ketchuni avenged , and another bor
der villain is gone where his wealth will
not avail , before the grim old judge.
Quite a number of persons are spoken
of in connection with the commissioner-
ship. Let the matter be thoroughly
canvassed and the most capable candi
date be decided upon. The people are
interested in having an active , energetic
business man to look after their interests.
