The Indianola Courier devotes two or
three columns to blackguarding Mcd
Cook and her citizens , but fails to
mention the memorial exercises at the
county-seat. But then , memorial day
cuts no figure when Mr. Bishop's bile
bag is loaded for McCook.
The members of the high line ditch
surveying party , Joe Colver , Geo. Le-
Hew and Ben Horner , are in camp at
Palisade , from which point they will
commence to work this way , Monday ,
when Mr. Kellogg , the chief of the
party , returns from Denver.
Now that the summer vacation is on ,
Prof. C. M. Charles , who has been the
efficient head of the Indianola public j
schools for a number of years , who is
the "Co. " in C. M. Loper & Co. of the
McCook Business College , will be more
closely associated with the institution
in , which he is interested. The Profes
sor is an able and progressive educator
of laige experience.
The following gem of purest ray j
is taken from the Courier
serene , pubn
lished at Indianola , this county. We
give it in all its original simplicity and c
beauty. Here it is : I
Moonlight scene on Methodist church
steps Monday night "Now , Bill , if you
don't quitbiting me , I'll bite you hard. "
After giving birth to the above , Mr.
Bishop should have taken a 30-day va- tl
cation , to give his gray matter an opporu
tunity to recuperate. Another immedi-
ate draft on his mental resources might
prove disastrous , and the office of the
chief of the Ananiases become vacant. ?
About three o'clock Tuesday morn-
ing , the musical notes of the water-works B
steam whistle announced the news of the
exisetnee of a fire somewhere in the city.
The persistent and continuous screech
of whistles and clamor of bells drew
out the male population in scores , and a
the whereabouts of the "disastrous con- °
fhgration" was the general inquiry. Dilifcl
gent search and interrogation failed to a
disclose the hiding-place of the "fire
fiend , " and the assembled multitudes
reluctantly disbanded and wended their
way homeward , severally and collective- •
ly pronouncing maledictions upon the a
false alarm fake. It appears , however ,
that the alarm was not without foundad
tion , and that an incipient blaze in the -
water-works coal shed was the cause.s
The fire doubtless originated from sparks *
or sut from the smoke stack which had
"burned out" at an early hour of the
night. Being well provided for such
emergencies , the night force at the
pump house quickly had the fire under d
control ; and the damage ( save to pub- °
lie morals ) was but nominal. I
DECORATION ] DAY IN McCOOK
The Most General Observ
ance of the Day in the
City's History.
FLOWERS , EULOGY AND TEARS
For the Nation's Slumbering
Patriots General Suspension
of Business and Decoration
of Buildings.
McCook in as patriotic as enterpris
ing i , progressive and thrifty. The man-
ner in which Memorial day was observ-
ed , by her citizens is indicative of the
fact that they appreciate the priceless
services rendered by the heroes who are
\ now "under the sod and the dew wait
ing i the judgment da } ' , " by the willing
ness in which tiiey put aside the affairs
of daily life and unite in paying their
tribute of flowers and panegyric to the
the immortal dead , whose memories de-
serve to be kept fresh in every Amerit
can heart.
Memorial day i3 preeminently THE
DAY among the nation's holidays.
About it cluster and cling more and
tenderer memories and nobler senti
ments than are assoiiated with any of
the occasions commemorated by the
people of this laud. It is meet and
proper , therefore , that the exercises in
McCook should be participated m by
such a grand outpouring of the masses
as signalized the late celebration. From
factory and shop , farm and office came
they , insomuch that McCook has not
seen . a greater demonstration since the
. the city has had a modest niche in
history.
The programme as prepared by the
G. A. It. post was carried out in all
material J points , in the opera hall , which
unfortunately accommodated but a
small portion of the people who quick-
ly crowded the hall and filled the
streets leading thereto. Addresses
were delivered by Rev. D. L. McBndc
of the Babtist church , and by Mrs.
Mary J ) R. Morgan , president of the
W. R. C , department of Nebraska.
The reverend gentleman's remarks
were well-timed indeed , and were re
ceived with marked evidences of apa
proval and pleasure. Mrs. Morgan
spoke at considerable length , and the
patient , attentive hearing and warm aps
plause given the talented lady are the
best possible indications of the satis-
faction and gratification drawn from
her ' utterances by her large and enr
thusiastic audience. The vocal and
instrumental j music which "sandwiched"
the respective parts of the programme
was of a most excellent sort and effects
ively rendered.
THE LARGEST PROCESSION
ever seen in southwestern Nebraska
then formed in the order announced and
.
headed by the cornet band marhced to
Longview cemetery , where the graves
of Comrades C L. Nettleton , Chester
Ward , George Walker , Charles Fox ,
Daniel Clement and Elias Conrad were
decorated in an appropriate manner by
loving hands , thus closing one of the
most interesting occasions ever partici
pated in by the patriotic people of this
section of the state.
Destroyed by Liqhtning.
During the rain , Sunday night , the
dwelling of Henry Myer , near Osburn
postoffice , was struck by lightning and
( with almost its entire contents ) destroyj
ed. Mrs. Myer was stunned by the bolt
and had to be carried from the burning
house by her husband. Mr. Myer is an j
employe of Messrs. Pade & Son , the
furniture men , but was spending Sun-
day on the farm with his family , or his
loss ( ( which is quite heavy ) might have
been terribly intensified. We under'j
stand that he carried $ G50 insurance.
Jay and Williard Simms , Comedians.
"The Jay and Williard Simms Co. ,
at Whitney's , last night , made a big hit.
There was not even standing room , and
judging from the frequency and hearti-
ness of the applause , there was no lack
of interest. A more evenly balanced
company is seldom seen. " Free Press ,

A Tissue of Lies.
"Tiie McCook Tkibuxe , fearing to tell

ant . , if true. Unfortunately for Mr.e
Bishop of the Courier it is a tissue of
lies from beginning to end. The Tribc

the marriage of Miss Eva L. Clarke to

Special Premiums.
President Coleman of the county
agricultural society has taken quite an
interest { in the sugar beet matter. He
has j , * been distributing a large quantity of
seed and besides has secured a number
of special premiums for the best and
largest ] display of heets. These special
premiums are offered by our business
men and will doubtless be an incentive
to the farmers to produce superior beets ,
Sugar beets culture , however , is not a
new thing in Red Willow County , as
some of our German farmers have rais-
ed mammoth specimens in past years.

McCook Lodge entertains its mem-
bers , and friends , with strawberries and

having received twenty-five applications
in j the past three months.
= -
The unsightly sheds orboard awnings
in , McCook are doomed. They are a
permanent eye sore , keep out the light ,
are injurious to health , prevent the
proper display of goods , after a few
years become rotten and dangerous.
There is , in fact , not a single argument
in j favor of theirretention , buthundreds
to have them removed. It is with pleas
ure we record the fact that they are bet
J ing rapidly replaced with the neat , grace-
ful , portable canvass affair , that in a
moment can be switched out of sight , or
made to serve the purpose of shading
the buildings , the displays in the show
windows from the glare of the sun.
There -j are not many remaining , but we
fear they are barnacles. The city fath
ers should prevent new ones from being
erected and limit the life of the old ones ,
that seem ashamed if they are noticed.
Out with the sheds ; its the last relics of
a past age that cumbers us.
The Indianola Courier grows violent
ly rabid over the fact that his Honor ,
Judge Cochran of this district , enjoin-
ed Commissioners Crabtree and Bennett
from'fixing up" the records in the
county-seat removal matter , and froths
all over two or three columns of his valu
able space , this week , in his frantic and
boorish snarlings and snappings at the
Judge. The Indianola authorities
should enforce the ordinance and muzzle
Mr. Bishop , this warm weather.
"There are a few newspaper men in this
broad stale who "don't have to" jump at anyi
body's bidding , and we are proud to say that
Editor Warner of the Faber is one of them. " .

We regret , Mr. Bishop , that we can
not "lay the same flattering unction to
your soul. " The length of the string
