No where in the county I , . . are farms better kept than they are in old Ohio. No criminal cases come from this precinct and very few civil cases. Its schools pay the highest salaries to teach- ers and the delinquent tax list shows less than one hundred . dollars from this precinct. If . . I i there is a precinct in the county that can make a better showing ; we will gladly announce it if you _ " ' . . . , will but call it to our attention. , . _ . \Ve think it was a Roman philosopher who said you can tell which dog you hit by the yelp. Under and by virtue of the pro- visions of the new revenue law . f I there has been paid 111 Richard- I l . son County more than forty . thousand dollars in delinquent taxes. When the levy is put , . / . down where it should be and where it will be next year , the taxes will be lower than they have been for years. It is already - ready estimated that the new law will produce enoug'h revenue from the collection of delinquent taxes alone " to pay the state dcbt. 'l"he time will come when thc repub- lican party will point to the law as one of its greatest achelve- mC1ts , and when the carping critic of today will acknowledge his mistake - - . . . . - Through an unfortunate oversight - sight thc bills announcing the candidates meetings this week do not contain the name of George Smith. A meeting of the candi- dates without George Smith would be about as satisfactory as the play of Hamlct with Hamlet - let left out. Uncle George's name will be on thc ballot how- ever and his army of friends will all find it. Our George ( Smith ) will defeat the democratic George ( Carpenter ) so' badly that the race will prove uninteresting. - - We venture the assertion that not one half of the : lawyers in Richardson county know the democratic candidate for county attorney hy sight. Do the tax- payers of It his county want their legal affairs to be entrusted to a man who not only has never had a 'case : : in the district court , but has never been in the court room during a term of court. W. H. Morrow stands high as a lawyer of ability and respect a bili ty. He has had business at every term vf the district court for years He will serve the people with fidelity - delity and painstaking care. In a matter of such great importance party lines should be obliterated and every voter cast his vote for : Morrow. . . . . The News of last week frankly admitted that the d l' a i nag e scheme of R. E. Grinstead is feas- ible and that it would reclaim the bottom lands. It seemed to think however , that the owners of bottom land arc more inter- ested in the revenue law than they are in the reclaimation of their land. The land along the Nemaha and Muddy bottoms is today not worth 530.00 per acre , in fact there is no market for such land because of its susceptibility to overflows. This land is as rich as the valley of the Nile. It will raise anything the climatic conditions will permit , and if the overflows could be eliminated would be worth , from eighty to one hundred dollars per acre. If there is a bottom land ownGr who would forego this reclaimation in order to repeal a law that may increase his taxes three or four dollars for the first yearhe should be visited by the insane commission - sion 'without delay. Grinstead's idea will prevent the overflows. It has been successful wherever tried and thc News admits its feasibility. . I . . . 'j . . , ! . 'f . . . . .

Thc above portrait is ait excellent likeness of thc republican candidate for secretary of state. Richardson county is peculiarly interested iii his candidacy. He will succeed a H.ichardson'county man ( George \V. Marsh. ) He has visited Falls City several times and is very generally acquainted with our people , which fact , taken in connection with the fact that the Richardson county delegation to the state convention , at Fred W. Miller's suggestion ! , participated very materially in a movement which resulted in his nomina- tion , gives Richardson county republicans an unusual interest in his success. 't he following is taken from the Seward , Blade. HAn old Seward counnty boy who has made his mark in the world and although hc is lt present a citizen : : of Red Cloud , Neb. , yet we feel that Seward county has a right to claim him as we sent him out to battle with the world in his young manhood. AI , as we all learned to call him , was born at Franklin Falls , Few York , July 29th , 185 % but moved at the age of eight to Lan- rel1cevile ) , same state ! , where he was educated in the academy. Hc struck the great western which led him to Seward in 1882 , where he clerked in a tore and gained many friends who well remembl'r him lS a' bright young man of good character and very attentive to bus- mess. In 1886 he went to Red Cloud and was for many years engaged in the mercantile business , but is at present traveling as a salesman , and although he has just been nominated by the State Republican convention to be their standard hearer for Secretary of State ; in- stead of traversing the state looking for votes , he is attending strictly - ly to his cmployer's business , and we jUCtgc the people will recog- nize that important fact. Mr. Galusha is an honorable member of the Masonic order Blue Lodge No. 53 , at Red Cloud , also of chapter No. 19 and Cvrene Commaneery No. 14. He is a member of the A. O. U. W. No. 60 at his home , is a member of the Grand lodge and secretary of the finance committee. - - If the Journal is so concerned over thc endowment of a bed at the Mercy hospital by the city , and really desires to see the local governments , city and county , husband their resources , wc would suggest that thc county attorney return his two years salary for which he has given no equiva- len t. - W. H. Hogrefc is one of the most progressive and able busi- ness men in Richardson County. He has had legislative experience. He knows ] the needs of his people and will make those requirements his first object The people of this county need strong , earnest , able men like Mr. 'Hog-refc in the legislaturc. A vote for him is a vote for an intelligent and conservative legislator. Missouri Pacific , Railway Time Table , Falls City , Neb. NORTH No. 51 Omaha and I-4incoln Express .
