DAINTY SHOES FOR DAINTY FEET.
It'll pay you handsomely to buy
a pahof our Bright Dongola But
ton shoes. Just as sure as you
wear them long enough to wear
them out , and you'll have to wear
them long to do it , you'll come
\ back for another pair. If you
want to know what comfort in-foot
wear really means , these are the
shoes for you. They'll fit as
snugly as an easily fitting glove
and there are plenty of gloves not
half so becoming. As to the price
§ 2.00 and § 2.50 , if they are not
worth it and a little more , no
shoes have ever been worth what
you paid for them. You certainly
would not blame us if we asked a
larger figure.

Witnesseth , that THE TRIBUNE has
always treated the Old Maid's Hyphen
with kindly consideration. To be sure ,
it has been more or less patronizing ,
but then it can afford to be. A tallow

light is not likely to create any serious
discomfiture. But this paper is hurt ,
its labor of love has been for naught.
Col. Barnes in his awful and Juried
style has specially charged this paper
with two matters : firstly , that of trying

reader will acquit us. A careful ex
amination of the files of the Hyphen
from the time the outfit struck McCook
( and from which McCook has not fully
recoved since ) , up to the present time ,
fails to discover that it ever had any ;
secondly , that this paper's references
to the 0 , M. H. have been characterized
by a want of seriousness. To this
guilty. THE TRIBUNE has really been
enjoying "itself" toying with "it , " and
the aforesaid paper is kept on file as a
standing joke at this office.

The Methodist church was well filled ,
last Friday evening , to hear Prof. Gregg
deliver his lecture on the topic , "Ener
gy , or What a Blind Man Can Learn to
Do. " The Proffessor has well earned
the title of being Nebraska's blind orator
tor , as his eloquence held the wrapt
attention and interest of his audience
throughout its delivery. He also played
a number ot selections on the organ ,
which showed him to be an accom
plished musician as well as a clever
speaker. Prof. Valentine , who is an
oldtime Nebraska City friend of the
blind man , ab the close , made a few
appropriate remarks.
Ten years ago TUB McCooK TRIB
UNE commenced its career as a dissem
inator of useful knowledge , compendium
of song and portfolio of art. It has
toiled in the vineyard when the sun
was hot , and is still toiling , and will
continue to toil in the future as it has
done in the past. The reward may be
slow in coming , but if it doesn't arrive
in this world , it is pleasant to remem
ber that there is still a future. THE
TRIBUNE also has the satisfaction of
knowing that in laboring for McCook it
is working for a noble cause , and that
in itself is a reward.
The independents of this (29th ( ) sena
torial district meet in convention , Aug.
2d , in McCook , to nominate a candidate

cast for Edgerton , and one from each
county at large ; this gives Ked Willow
county 13 votes in the convention , and
these , THE TRIBUNE understands , will
be solidly for their favorite son , Hon.
Andy C. Moli.
