Pat Ckowk visited Omaha newspaper and business offices last week and yet Donoliocs police force never got a glimpso of him. Why don't Chief D0110I100 employ a few newspaper re porterB it lis really ' wants to catch criminals. It should nut bu forgotfen that when the Elks recently bought the furniture that local dealers in Competition with Omaha and Chicago merchants carried off all tho business. In one case six tables were bought and one oL the Al liance dealer's prices f. o. b, Alliance was a8 low as the same goods were quoted by Chicago merchants f. o. b. Chicago, and yet tho freight on each of these tables was $r.8i. The same is true in most other lines. You can save nionoy by patronizing homo merchants. Amono the 200 visitors from all over Nebraska and adjoining states who visited Alliance last week for the Elks and Knights of Columbus installations, everyone was loud in their praise of tho handsome, elaborate and novel window decorations. Alliance business men did themselves proud and havo few equals and no superiors when it comes to decorations. Among tho most elaborate was the electric light coin pany'B illuminated decorations, and George Darling, tho furniture man, was n rlose second. Tim organizing of an ordor of tho Knights of Columbus in Alliance means much for the advancement of the Cath olic church not only in this city but throughout western Nebraska. In the east, where this order is strongest, the councils nro composed of the best mem bers of society and this united effort lias resulted in making tho good, which it aims to accomplish, felt in every locality. If the newly organized court here in Alliance is similarly con ducted, tho result will be beneficial not only to members of that society but to society in general. Captain Ai.lhn G. Fisiiek was elect ed mayor of Cliudron by one majority. Now his opponent has commenced contest proceedings and hopes to oust the mayor elect. He alleges that the mayor was elected by a few people who were not entitled to vote. We venture the assertion that all the questionable votes were not polled on tho Fisher sido qf the case, and we have little use for soreheads. Whoii you go into a political fight, put up the host you havo and when you got loft don't get sore. The public despises a man who cannot take defeat as well as victory, when he is a candidate for public office. We have known Captain Fisher for some years and we believe Fisher to be ne fair in politics as his opponent and here's hoping the majority may prevail. J pon Sullivan fined Judge Critas $iv 'Hi and, costs for contempt of cotut tht other day in Sullivan's couit at Chftdron. Critos refused to pay and wont to juil until he could got ,the Suprome court to re leas him, which Judge Holcomb did by wire. Now the matter will take up the time of the Supreme court. Tha court had issuod positive instruc tions and Critci violated them. If the case had been reversed and C tit 03 had been on the bench his word would have been law and he. would not havo neglected to enforce it. It's as fair for one as for tho other. Stand up Judge and pay your fine like a man. If we had fewer cases like this to en counter in the Supreme court, they might have more time to devote to legitimate cases, and less demand for constantly increasing the number of Supreme judges. i LOCAL PARAGRAPHS.
