The schools began Monday with the usual attendance. Miss Lucy Peake teaches the Willow school , Miss Olive Rittenhouse the south end of district 72. Miss Peake will board with Mrs. Taylor. Oh ! to be able to write poetry like that lit erary artist from Coleman. We would not ask any higher salary. No , no , the public should enjoy and profit by our genius , and our name should live in the hearts of our countrymen for quite a spell after they had done reading our poems. There would be no end of items done in verse then. To Subscribers of The Tribune. Readers of Tee Tribune will please remember that cash is an essential in the publication of a paper.

To the members of the various Frater nal Beneficiary Societies in Red Willow county , Nebraska. Fraters : Some weeks ago committees were ap pointed by the Fraternities ot this city , with power to do whatever might be necessary in the coming election that would secure favorable candidates for the Legislature , both in the Representa tive and Senatorial districts. In accordance with the instructions given we have secured like action on the part of the Fraternal Societies in our neighboring cities , and the committees now appointed represent the enormous sum of nearly $3,000,000.00 of Fraternal Protection. This is the laboring man's safeguard that the "Old Liners" would wipe out with one act if they can secure control of the Legislature , the coming winter. Believing that our interests can be best conserved by calling the various com mittees together , and at the same time inviting the candidates of the various political parties to meet with us , that we may know whether they are with us or against us , we , the undersigned , hereby issue a call for a meeting of all the rep resentatives of the Fraternal Beneficiary Societies in Red Willow county , to be held in the city of McCook , Nebraska , on Thursday , the 17th day of September , 1896 , ( this being at the same time that the Farmers' Institute is to beheld here ) . And the candidates for Representative from this county , as nominated by the various political parties , are requested to be present , also the candidates for Sena tor from this Senatorial district , that we may be able to report to the various Fra ternities that we represent what we may expect in case of election to the Legisla ture of the State of Nebraska on this issue which affects the homes of a ma jority of the electors of this county.
