K To those accustomed to life among the
i I lofty , gray and austere peaks of True Art
j\ what acute pain it must be to have to

Jf of this ignorant , conventional old world.

B ' / The author of these Spasms under-
fl h stands that the Class Poet of 'g5 has
fl 1 % determined to make a trip of discovery
fl f and investigation to the North Pole. As
HlfMjr the water route and the balloon have in
flff numerous instances proven untrust-
fll / worth } ' and failures , he has decided to
1J \ first construct a staudard-guage , double-
Hfl | > track railway to that mid-summer Eldo-
H | | rado. He is being encouraged to be-
B \ lieve that as a summer resort it can be
H'rfff made to easily distance all comers and
H I | knock as cold as a wedge all competit-
H iL ors. He fancies an electric light plant
H „ can be made to pa } ' adult dividends on
K * * ( " "heavily watered stock up there at least
K six months in the year. There are some
fi u other attractive , even startling particu-
B Vfef i lars that he does not wish made known

I Sr them.

H \ Rather than seeking to centralize
H ) \ power , concentrate wealth and corner
V &t opportunit3' , asis unfortunately too much
Bf $ the tendency of this day , it should be the
fl IK highest endeavor of the thoughtful , pa-
B \Jt triotic citizen to labor unselfishly to
H \ secure the widest and fairest diffusion of
fl 5jP wealth , power and opportunity among
H | j [ the sons of men. It were better and
fl jK , wiser that 25,000 workingmen should
m % t have a comfortable income than that a
m B , Rockefeller's annual income shall reach
m p the stupendous sum of over eight mil-
H & lions of dollars. I marvel when I hear
v pious people quote , "For ye have the
Ht ? " 5 > poor always with you , " as an excuse for
B T \ upholding and encouraging the cou-
Bi tinuance and growth of such an erroneous
V- system. Let us both recognize and prac-
b tice faith in the brotherhood of man and
B the fatherhood of God.
Hf\ T T T
vlc We of the agricolous press take pleas-
H % ure constantly in priding ourselves on
K\ what we term independent journalism.
Kf'A It may come to us as an acute disappoint-
| P ( ment , but the truth is that genuine independence -
\ dependence in iiewspaperdom exists
Hjv ) inore in theory- and imagination than in
H fact , and that an untrammeled editor and
m lL publisher isindeed a rare bird. At a din-
m % ner given the members of the press in
B M New York some time ago , a journalist
HjHr \ was called upon to reply to the toast ,
H % • 'An Independent Press. " Knowing we
, have no independent press among the
H % powerful papers of the nation , he for a
H long time refused to reply , but being
Ki F insisted on to do so , said : "There is no
PJB such thing in America as an independent
HMe press , unless it is out in the country
T \ towns. You are all slaves. You know
t < it and I know it. There is not one of you
t
H % who dares express an honest opinion. If
H f you express it , you know beforehand
H $ that it will not appear in print. I am
P l paid $150 a week for keeping honest
§ < . opinions out of the papers I am connect-
PJP/\ ed with. Others of you are paid similar
wMg ? salaries for doing similar things. If I
D should allow honest opinions to be print-
PM\ ed in one issue of my paper , like Othello ,
B E my occupation would be gone. The
M J | man who would be so foolish as to write
HP honest opinions would be out on the
I streets looking for another job. Th.e
H\ business of leading journalists is to disH -
H \ tort the truth , to prevent , to villify , to
tf r fawn at the feet of mammon and to sell
PV his country and his race for his daily
PL bread , or for what is about the same ,
U\ his salary. You know this , and I know
H * it , and what foolery to be toasting an
Ba independent press. We are the tools and
B vassals of the rich men behind the screen.
B * We are jumping jacks. They pull the
Hi string and we dance. Our time , our tal-
Ms ent , our possibilities , are all the property
K of other men. We are intellectual pros-
Rl titutes. "

man liberty.
Pleasing and Creditable.
The literary-musical entertainment
given in the Congregational church ,
Tuesday evening , by the children of the
Junior Christian Endeavor , was a pleas
ing and creditable affair for the little
ones. There was a fair attendance and
theyouthful Endeavorers netted a neat
profit. Mrs. T. B. Campbell and Miss
Maud Cordeal assisted them in the prep
aration and performance. All may be
congratulated.
An Enjoyable Social Time.
On account of sickness and other un-
forseen circumstances , the program an
nounced for Monday evening's session of
the Star of Jupiter did not materialize.
Nevertheless , the attendance was quite
large , notwithstanding the heat , and a
lively social time was had just the same.
It is expected that the committee will
be more fortunate , next week , and that
an entertaining program will be duly
rendered.
An Unfortunate Fall.
Saturday evening , Mrs. C. C. Ingalls ,
mother of Mrs. A. S. Campbell , had the
misfortune to fall from a hammock and
fracture and dislocate her left arm at the
wrist. Dr. Gage promptly rendered the
surgical services , and it is hoped that
the injury will rapidly disappear without
any deformity , which is not uncommon
with fractures at the wrist among older
people.
Almost One-Half Higher.
The wheat market opened here , Sat
urday , almost one-half higher than last
year. The price paid by local dealers
for new wheat , Saturday , was 50 cents
a bushel. The market opened , lastyear ,
with the low price of 35 cents a bushel.
With a large crop , this will make a big
difference to our farmers. The price
may go up , too.

General Missionary of S. W. Nebraska ,
will visit St. Alban's Episcopal church
on Sunday next and will celebrate the
Holy Eucharist and preach morning and
evening. A cordial invitation is exten
ded to all to attend.
It is no violation of private or public
confidence to state that the backbone of ;
winter has been broken , this week.
Hence we hasten to make the announce
ment. Specimens of the shattered ver
tebrae will be exhibited on application .
to all doubting Thomases.

Nebraska the Best.
For the benefit of some of the doubt
ing Thomases we wish to call the atten
tion of our readers to facts concerning
Nebraska that cannot be questioned.
The extreme western part of Nebraska
is not supposed to be an agricultural
section , not because the land is not rich
enough , but because rains are not fre
quent enough to produce a crop every
year. Yet it is one of the best range
sections to be found on account of the
rich buffalo grass. Taking the year
around it is better than blue grass and
the climate is such that it takes very lit
tle feed through the winter , and there
are very few sections where alfalfa or
some good forage plant cannot be raised
to keep stock through what few bad
days there are in the winter. Now when
we consider that western Nebraska is in
and adjacent to a range section , and that
middle and eastern Nebraska cannot be
beaten as an agricultural section it is
plain that we can do what no other
state except Kansas can do , and that is
to raise our own cattle and feed them.
We are feeding or have been feeding
more cattle this last winter and spring
than at any time in the past. Where
farmers had the right kind of cattle and
fed intelligently they have made from
25 to 35 cents on their corn. This is
much better than selling corn from 10
to 15 cents.
All things considered , no state in the
Union offers such inducements as Ne
braska. Hastiugs Democrat.
Instantly Killed by Lightning.
Monday afternoon , during a rain storm ,
John W. , the seventeen-year old son of
William H. Barger of Coleman precinct ,
about twelve miles northwestofMcCook ,
was struck by lightning and instantly
killed. Two other sons , Earl and Char
lie , were near by and were shocked by
the same bolt , which also stunned a
horse. The boys were between the house
and well at the time and near a barb
wire fence , and it is supposed that the
fatal current came from the fence.
Funeral services were conducted by
Rev. J. M.Bell in the Methodist church ,
Tuesday afternoon , after which the re
mains were buried in Longview ceme
tery.
tery.Many
Many attended the services and num
erous beautiful floral tributes attested to
the high regard in which the deceased
was held.
The bereaved family have the deep
and sincere sympathy of everybody in
their sad and sudden bereavement.
The deceased was a grandson of Mrs.
M. E. Barger of our city.
At McCook , August 2 and 3.
Dr. Bowlus delivered his second lec
ture at the Baptist church Tuesday even
ing. The lecture was listened to by a
crowded house. It lasted an hour , and
never were the people of this city given
as interesting talk as this. His lecture ,
interspersed with funny jokes enough to
arouse the sleepy ones , was full of
thought and instruction from the begin
ning to the close , and those who missed
hearing him , missed something that
they will probably never be able to get.
His third lecture will be Thursday night ,
July 22on the electric light and the X-ray
which will be the most interesting of all.

Came Near Being Serious.
Mrs. H. H. Berry has been having
quite a time with an ankle , slightly in
jured by her some time ago , but to which
she at the time attached no importance.
She narrowly escaped blood poisoning ;
and after the wound had healed up , the
doctor found it necessary to reopen the
same and scrape the bone , on account of
some foreign substance that had gotten
into the wound.
