EOBEET GOOD Editor and Publisher
OUR MOTTO
No Question is ever Settled Until it is
Settled Bight
Considerable discussion
voked by our article on
question last week and in partial ex
planation we wish to say th t the sen
timents contained therein were not en
tirely our own they were the crystal
ized sentiments of many men especial
ly those in business and if their
publication has created any new
thought in the minds of our readers
our purpose is attained and we are sat
isfied
We believe that education is begin
ning already to have its effect upon
the publis in legard to this matter
Said a prominent stockman to the edi
tor the other day It is kind of going
out of fashion for a man to drink es
pecially to excess Why a few j ears
ago l tnougut tnat if i didnt drink
every time I had an opportunity I
wouldnt be recognized as one of the
fraternity of stockmen but lately I no
tice that many of the old boys have
sphered down or entirely quit drinking
and they are prospering too This is
true in all Lnes of business Temper
ance is being cultivated and as this
spirit of temperance grows stronger it
will accomplish wonders complete
prohibition of the liquor traffic prob
ably Meanwhile we wish to make
this prediction as far as local affairs are
concerned
The new village board when elected
will be pledged to see that all laws re
garding the sale of liquor to minors to
Indians or blacklisted persons are en
forced that the saloons are closed front
add rear on Sundays and election days
and before 12 oclock at night during
the week Any disturbance of the
peace will be promptly checked and if
the violation of the law is a flagrant
one the offender will be brought to jus
tice We do not believe that anyone
will object to this but please remem
ber that we make this merely as a pre
diction after feeling the public pulse
Our diagnosis may be wrong
Hawaii Puerto Rico aud the Philip
pines will occupy almost the entire ses
sion of congress Citizens renieinber
that Hawaii was annexed to the United
States by a vote of the people of the
islands but what many of them forget
is this In order to become a voter it
was necessary for citizens of the Ha
waiian republic to swear that they
would support the constitution of the
republic and that CONSTITUTION
PROVIDED FOR ANNEXATION
to the United States That explains
why the vote for annexation was so
unanimous in other words if a citi
zen did not favor annexation he was
not allowed to vote at all We gave
the people of Puerto Rico to under
stand that when Spain gave them to us
we would make them citizens of this
country or at least make their terri
tory a part of the union and yet con
gress is trying to establish tariffs on
goods from and to that island We
paid 20000000 for the Philippines
buying them from Spain who had lost
her title and was willing to pay some
body to take them off her hands we are
still at war with the inhabitants and yet
congress proposes to legislate for our
wards
The Hay Trade Journal an adminis
tration organ sailing under false colors
gives this list of conditions which are
supposed to exist in the west
Tramps at work
Forty one cent corn
Eighty cent wheat
Thirty five cent oats
Thirty seven cent butter
Four and one half cent hogs
Six and one fourth cent cattle
Twenty eight cent wool
Eighteen dollars per ton for hay
JMills running over time
Wages advanced
Bushels of money good in any part of
the world -
Can anyone in Nebraska say that he
receives the prices quoted or has seen
the conditions noted
Worse than War
Hundreds are killed in war but hun
dreds of thousands are killed by con
sumption There -would be no deaths
at all caused by this terrible disease if
people could be made to understand
that Shilohs Cough and Consumption
Cure is a sure remedy if taken in the
early stages 25 cts 50 cts and 100
a bottle Druggists will retund the
moneyif a cure is not affected s
The return of the favorites The
Clara Hanmer Co will be welcome
news to the patrons of the opera house
They made many friends on their for
mer visit who will no doubt turn out
in force on Monday night
If you dont Eee it in the paper this
week it is because it was crowded out

A Splendid Company
The Sanford Dodge company played
the Merchant of Venice toaciowd
ed house Monday night following
with Richelieu the next evening
The ladies band was employed as or
chestra and rendered some very nice
selections between the acts The
company is a strong one and too
much praise Cannot be bestowed upon
I them Thp star Sanfnrd Tindxrp wns

fvated the audience as Portia Her
diction was perfect and her expres
sion as rood as the best Fisher was
we thouffhta trifle licht as Bassanio
WW W
but Wm Lloyd played the bluff good
natured friendGratiano in fine style
Launcelot was well taken by Chas
Gayt but Stuart Beebe made a poor
Antonio which is one of the strongest
parts in the play Zella Leslie made
a very lively and winsome Nerissa
while Jessica the demure Jewessand
her lover Lorenzo were well por
frayed by Beth Field and Eugene
Shakespeare Off the stage the play
ers proved themselves to be ladies
and gentlemen in every sense of the
word and we heartily commend them
to our sister towns
Richelieu proved a rare treat to
our people and in our estimation -the
star shone to better advantage as the
Cardinal than as the Jew The play
was new to Valentine and the for
tunes of the beautiful Julie and her
noble lover Adrien were followed
with intense interest Richelieus in
domitable will love of justice and un
limited resources as portrayed by
Dode threw a new light upon this
historical character who is generally
thought of as a high class villain
Miss Leslie occupied the leading lady
part in this play and her voice face
and figure combined with her talent
made her a peerless Julie A better
conspirator than William Lloyd as
Baradas is hard to conceive The
parts were if anything better suited
to the actors than they were in the
Merchant and the impression left
by the company was a good one

I landed in Hartsville in the nifjht
There are no street lamps the only
light there is coming- frotn private
houses The first thing I heard after
getting in was a man yelling at the top
of his voice Balance all in one of
the dance halls
Business here is overdone Two of
the restaurants are closed for lack of
custom and there are eight saloons iu
operation including two dance halls
Employment is easily secured from the
B M a branch of the Cheyenne or
the mines Men receive 250 per day
for work in the mine and 200 for la
bor on the railroad but a man must
have his own bed with him or he may
have to sleep outdoors This place is
bound to become one of the best towns
in the hills as the entire country is a
mass of iron ore Where they are now
working the ore is fifty feet deep and
the mountains are almost solid iron the
ore yielding 70 per cent There is to
be a junction of the B M and Chey
