E. 'P. Day is a young man of
the careful business qualities that
go to make a capable county clerk.
Keep your eye on his gait.
J - . W. A. McCool is a typical , ex-
j , perienced officer. He has won his
spurs. He will serve Red Willow
county most efficiently as sheriff.
G. S. Bishop has the legal training -
! ; \ ing and experience requisite for
; ' . the office of county judge and the
newspaper man's faculty of win
ning : " •
When it comes to casting a po
litical horoscope of Red Willow
county , Colonel Phillips of the-
! Indianola Reporter is some pump
kins himself.
C. N. Whittakek is a school
teacher of experience and ability ,
and-is in every way well fitted for
t the important office of county su-
f. perintendent.
• : Colonel Dave F. Smith of the
m
Wilsonville. Review is receiving
' • congratulations over his appointment -
< ment as Nasby at Wilsonville , and
\ , The Tribune joins in the chorus.
j . The Colonel is competent and de
serving.
J A , . The new school land la w , ' which
has withdrawn from sale all'the
! \ school lands of the state and con-
jf\ fines ' the land "commissioner to
1 leasing the school lands , is to be
r ' tested as to its constitutionalityby
i a gentleman from Pawnee county.
\ "What ? " asks Colonel Phillips
% , of the Indianola Reporter , holding
: ' ' his breath for 'steen consecutive
minutes , "if the Democrats should
t * vote the Republican ticket ! Is it
' - * not' true' that the Republicans have
nominated Democrats , and elected
! r * them ; in fact , have done more
5 along that line than the Populists. "
The editor of the Lincoln Daily
$ .1 Call visited the Lincoln public
. * schools , the other day , and came
away convinced of at least two
f things : Firstly , that Supt. Saylor
&f can swear some ; and secondly , that
> the faddist teacher of a naw system -
tem of reading is a genius. And it
j ' " almost cost him a "licking" to
" glean that much information.
' < * . _ _ - Ex-State Auditor Eugene
? j Moore has pleaded guilty to em-
* v bezzling insurance fees from the
J ? state in an amount exceeding $23-
< 000 ; and will now go before , the
\ supreme court and contend that he
' had no right to collect the money
\ lie embezzled , in the hope of escap-
6 ing punishment. He had no right
$ to steal the monev , that is certain ,
and should do time like any other
jjr culprit.
'X A strong Populist office holder
' < * ' who draws a big salary in this ju
- - dicial district told the Quiz
ris. - , man
t * just before the Republican state
'
convention that the brainiest
t man 1
V " on the supreme bench was Judge '
| T Post. He also called attention to
: • the fact that Judge Post seldom '
g * . * rendered a dissenting opinion , for
&f his opinions were usually the opin-
T r ions of the court. Such a man is
l " u the kipdo . aman , to keep on the
IS " * * bench. Ord Quiz * - - / , .

A Growing Insurance Order.
The Star of Jupiter continues to invite
the attention of our people. Its meet
ings each Monday evening are full of in
terest and well attended. The social
entertainment at each meeting is quite a
feature , and the new degree is especially
attracting attention at this time. The
degree will he conferred again , next
Monday night , and none of the members
should fail to avail themselves of the
opportunity thus afforded them of seeing
this work. New applications for mem
bership are coming in rapidly , and new
members initiated almost every meeting.
McCook may well be proud of this or
ganization with its headquarters in our
midst , and may reasonably expect that
in the course of time , the institution will
be of considerable importance to our fair
city.
Remember Lot's Wife.
Clerk of the District Court G. C. Boat
man and Deputy County Clerk J. A.
Hammond were out "scorching , " Wed
nesday evening ; and for a while everj'-
thing went as merrily as wedding bells.
In a moment of over-confidence and ex
cessive elation , the court clerk , who was
doing some tall sprinting , looked back.
In the twinkling of an eye he was de-
biked with the two-wheeler on top. A
badly sprained arm , an abnormal knee
development and a large fund of experi
ence are the net results. He had for
gotten the admonition to Lot's wife. In
the immediate future at least he will let
Dick and Jerry do the bicycle act , and
confine himself to nursing thesorespots.
E F. Duffey and wife , who have been
visiting relatives over on the South Side
for the past few weeks , will leave for the
