Although J C Moore of Tyrone was
a member of one of the committees to
select names to report to the convention
as delegates to the convention he in

supported by the chair and others It
was tho expressed idea that delegates

the convention and not by a few politi
cal leaders A motion was made that
the county central committee prepare
and submit to tho next countj conven
tion a better plan for selecting such

Adjourned
The City Election
The city election occurred Tuesday
without incident or special interest
The non partisan ticket nominated in
tho Republican caucus a few weeks
since being elected throughout with
but slight opposition The race be
tween C I Hall and J G Schobel who
was placed on the ticket by petition was
fairly close considering the latter had
no organization and that no special
effort was made in his behalf John
Cordeals name was written on a few
tickets and a few favored E II Doan
for councilman in the First ward in
place of C J Ryan the Democrat on
the regular ticket but the efforts all
lacked organization head or enthusiasm
and caused but a slight ripple on the
otherwise calm political waters F M
Rathbun will be the new mayor C J
Ryan and C A Ward the new council
men and Dr S C Beach the city en
gineer The old clerk treasurer and
councilman in the First ward W S
Perry were reelected R B Archibald
and E H Doan were both reelected to
tho school board without opposition

ness The total enrollment was 320 of
which number about 60 worecomplimen
tary memberships issued to high school
pupils and musicians for valued services
rendered
The program as given in full in last
weeks Tribune was carried out in its
entirety Tho papers discussions lec
tures etc hold the close attention of the
members and visitors and were uniform
ly worthwhile stimulating and in
structive
After the business of the opening day
the reception by tho McCook teachers
and citizens in the court house was a
welcome and appreciated diversion at
which the visiting teachers and others
became acquainted with each other and
with tho people of the city This func
tion attracted an attendance of about
300 persons and was a s cial delight to
every participant The court room was
simply but prettily decorated for the oc
casion The K of P orchestra of six
pieces rendered music throughout the
evening A punch booth occupied tho
center of the large room and Miss Emma
Perry and a committee of high school
girls served the guests therefrom Ices
cake etc were served in another part of
the room each guest receiving a red

All Fools day evening tho April fool
joke was not lacking in the proceedings

and few escaped the back card and
the suggestions intended to assist the
wearer in guessing whom the wearer
represented Miss Mabel Wilcox was

ning was one of the chief attractions of
tho sessions In his vigorous and elo
quent style State Supt Fowler intro
duced the speaker William Wallace

satisfied with such expression as we may
be able to give
