Apropos of tho disgraceful frequency
of divorces in America the attitude of
the Roman Catholic and Episcopal
churches on the divorce question are
especially commendable and in the in
terest of good moralsand tho sanctity of
the marriage relation and vow
The promise of President Stickney of
the Great Western railroad to make
Omaha a grain market and afford an
opportunity for Omaha to establish a
board of trade of her own threatens to
stir up a railroad row of lively propor
tions with the Burlington and North
western in the fore front Just why
Omaha is not entitled to the same con
sideration in tho matter of grain rates
and regulations that Kansas City enjoys
is not made plain But the incident
suggests the parody The hand that
controls transportation in America rules
the roost
The Republican Ticket for 1903
The Republicans of Redwillow county
can have no misgivings about the ticket
they are called upon to support this
fall From top to bottom the nominees
are men well equipped for the offices
they seek
On the state ticket there is John B
Barnes of Madison candidate for justice
of the supreme court He is eminently
qualified for the supreme bench Is a
lawyer of the first class and a man of
the highest type His election is cer
tain Both of the men named for re
gents of the university are citizens of
academic attainment and high character
graduates of the Nebraska univer
sity and deeply interested in their great
alma mater Their election is a fore
gone conclusion
On the judicial ticket armears our
present judge Hon R C Orr who is
giving satisfaction in the manner in
which he is discharging the duties r f
the high office of district judge He
will succeed himself by the grace of a
majority of the voters of the Fourteenth
judicial district
This brings us to the county ticket
And here as in the state and judicial
tickets we are highly favored in having
able and excellent nominations for the
several offices
E J Wilcox the nominee for county
clerk needs no introduction He has
- m
THE OLD RELIABLE
Absolutely Pure
THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE
served the county efficiently and ac
commodatingly in that office during the
past two years which is a sufficient
earnest of the fact that he will do so
again And he will succeed himself be
yond a perad venture
The Republican nominee for treasurer
Ben G Gossard has lived in Redwillow
county since the year one and has in
several official positions given the most
unquestioned proof of his ability to con
duct the office of treasurer to the high
est satisfaction of tho people There is
no better qualified man in the county
Tho people of Redwillow county will
take pleasure in elevating him from de
puty to county treasurer in coming No
vember
R W Devoe the present deputy
county clerk is the partys nominee for
clerk of the district court A young
man of excellent character and fine cleri
cal attainments coupled with special
legal knowledge to which he has been
adding for some time ho has every
qualification and many strong claims
for the office His popularity and abili
ties practically assure his triumphant
election
A C Crabtree our present sheriff
was renominated without opposition
and his reelfction is one of the assured
facts of tho campaign He is a veteran
officer and is thoroughly conversant with
the duties of the shrievalty
For county judge the present incum
bent Dr S L Green is again before
the people of Redwillow county The
doctor is a member of tho old guard
one of the early settlers of the county
and of McCook He has conscientious
ly discharged the duties of the office
during the past term and the voters
will see that his plurality is ample and
to spare in November
Eugene S Dutcher seeks to succeed
himself in the office of county superin
tendent and he doubtless will do that
very thing He is competent and an
earnest official who has well and wisely
devoted himself to the school affairs of
the county during his first term of office
And by safely reelecting him the voters
of the county will do themselves proud
and do at the same time a distinct ser
vice to the educational interests of the
county
James Williams will bo the next sur
veyor of this county Mr Williams is
an old settler of the Beaver slope is a
conscientious and honorable citizen
farmer He will fill the duties of his
office to tho best of his ability and faith
fully
For the new office of county assessor
the party wisely nominated an active
and intelligent businessman F P
Eno a Danbury merchant is the man
He knows how and is credited with the
courage of his convictions The Tri
bune has no misgivings as to the man
ner in which he will discharge the du
ties of that new but highly important
office Nor have we any fear as to his
election
Fortunately Redwillow county has
littlo use for a county coronor Tho
people are too healthy and law abiding as
a rule to require the services of such an
official but to provide against a possible
emergoncy Dr A C Harlan was named
Ho will bo elected and will give a good
account of himself in any emergency
Tho people of the Second commission
er district placed in nomination one of
the old standbys of that end of the
county Samuel Premer is his name
Ho is a substantial farmer citizen who
will bring to the board of county com
missioners good hard sense and reliable
judgment He has long been a citizen
of tho county and knows its needs ne
has the stamina to do his duty to all
tho people and for tho best interests of
the entiro county No mistake will be
made in adding him to the board which
transacts the business of the county
The Tribune submits to the voters of
the county that nothing now remains
but for them to do but to go to the polls
on next election day and make the elec
tion of the above ticket a certainty
PUBLIC FREE LIBRARY NOTES
It is not so much the number of books
we read as it is their quality and the
thoroughness with which we read them
that profits us Lists of best books
bavo been compiled by many authors
A comparison of these will disclose a
wide diversity of opinion as to what
should be included and few readers
however well or ill versed in book lore
will be found to agree with any literator
whatever his renown who presumes to
name the books that all should know
It is customary for the peoples of each
country to maintain that of all men they
are the most enlightened that their lan
guage should be tho universal tongue
that their literature is richer than any
other In the absence of a tribunal to
which such questions may be referred
tho nations must be left to fight it out
among themselves and as the war is
one of words the victories are not de
cisive In spite of what we conceive to
be conclusive arguments in favor of our
contention the Germans who are in all
things an egotistical and aggressive
race insist on the superiority of Goethe
over Shakespeare The French profess
to be able to name many authors to
match any whom the English speak
ing world has produced Even the
Scandinavians and Italians have their
own books and writers which to them
seem better than any other
Perhaps these sentiments are natural
as each nation has its own traditions its
own prejudices its own superstitions
but when it comes to books the barriers
that politics has raised between states
should be what they in fact are imagin
ary lines Wo should take and acknow
ledge what is best from among tho
worlds books to whatever race or age
or nation their authors belonged
Attempts have been made to limit the
number of books that it is needful to
know and it is remarkable with how
few according to soYne of the most noted
authorities we can do One man has
said and he was not an orthodox Chris
tian either that if one made himself
thoroughly familiar with the Bible it
was not necessary to read any other
book A wonderful old volume it is too
in many ways In the first place our
version of it is written in tho purest of
pure English There is nothing com
parable with it not even Shakespeare
in the language Its authors were our
ancestors the men of the past from
whom we trace direct descent That
may be one reason it appeals so strongly
to us Its stories wrirten as they were
thousands of years ago are as modern
as and more human than the latest
novel on the book stalls Read carefully

Value of an Experiment
It is difficult to fix tho valuo of an ex
periment Tho results or absonco of re
sults many times dotermine tho profit
or loss in certain methods A thinker
evolves an idea and an oxperimont or
several of them determines whether or
not tho idea is worth anything Ideas
are much needed in improving methods
of farming as anything else and in few
cases has it been more strikingly shown
than on tho Farmers Advocato Experi
ment Farm during tho past season A
field of wheat was drilled in with a mod
ern press drill placing tho seed nearly 3
inches below the surface In adjacent
fields tho grain was drilled shallow or
sown broadcast and harrowed or discod
in During the spring while tho wheat
was small and beforo tho ground was
well shaded there camo some hot
weather that threatened sovero damage
or destruction to tho crop Tho ground
dried to a considerable depth and wide
cracks appeared Evaporation was go
ing on rapidly and the vitality of the
young plants was being affected The
farmer in charge started tho harrows on
the young wheat Tho neighbors pre
dicted ruin and the entire destruction of
the crop It is true harrows pulled out
some a small portion of the wheat but
the whole was suffering from loss of
moisture and nothing but a harrow
would pulverize tho surface and check
tho evaporation Tho question was
whether it was better to lose a few
plants or lose tho vitality of all and tho
farmer decided tho former was the lesser
risk The grain was drilled deep
enough so that the loss was small while
in the adjacent fields tho broadcast
sowing or shallow drilling mado harrow
ing at this time unsafe or impossible
NOW FOR RESULTS
Adjacent fields with old methods
yielded about 15 bushels per acre or
less while tho Experiment Farm crop in
stead of being destroyed by harrowing
gave a yield over 22 bushels per acre
Tho seed wheat in this particular field
was not the best owing to a mistake of
a hired man and it is thought that if
the seed had been properly selected the
yield would have reached 30 bushels or
double that in unharrowed fields
Farmers Advocate
Mr C Vincent editor of The Farm
ers Advocate Omaha Neb and Tope
ka Kan was in the city last Tuesday
directing the work of fall seeding on
their Experiment Farm in Coleman
township He has procured a special
seed cleaner for preparing tho seed
wheat It was removed to the farm on
Wednesday One of tho celebrated
Schlachter grain drills is ordered and
will be in operation next week The
grain yield on this farm for the past
season was 7 to 10 bushels more per aero
than in adjacent fields and Mr Vincent
ascribes this result solely to the meth
ods of culture adopted He is confident
that with better prepared seed and his
new and improved machinery he will be
able to make a still better showing next
year The Tribune welcomes all care
fully directed agricultural experimental
work It demonstrates the possibilities
that are within the reach of western
Nebraska and Kansas and we are pleas
ed to have a leading agricultural jour
nal take the initiative and interest it
self in such manner in the development
of the west
