Lewis-Cox.
At the Baptist parsonage in Alliance,
last Thursday, occurred ono of those
happy events that have been so num
erous in these parts lately. David F.
Lewis, son of Evan Lewis, and Miss
Lida Cox, daughter of Ellsworth C,ox,
were pronounced husband and wife by
Rev. J. M. Hnstui, after the custom
ary questions had been given the usual
answers. The happy young couple
have our sincere congratulations and
best wishes. May they have many
new years in their married life, and
may each succeeding new year be bap
pier than the one preceding
Weather Report
For the benefit of our readers at a dis
tance from Alliance, we will say that the
weather today is fine, the snow is melting
in the streets and to some extent, we are
informed, in the country, although so
slowly on the prairie and in the fields that
it will be quite a while before it is gone,
unless we get some warm winds to hasten
the melting, About fourteen inches of
snow, evenly distributed and packed, re
quires a good deal of warmth before it will
all turn into water.
Good Sleighing in Madison County.
P. J. Knapp called at The Herald
office today and showed us a letter
from Osknr A. Sundcrman, proprietor
of Ash Grove Stock Farm, Madison,
Nebr,, in which he stated that they
were having fine Christmas weather
there and splendid sleighing. There
were other items of interest in the let
ter, one of which was a request to Mr.
Knapp that he call at The Herald of
fice and pay Mr. Sundcrman's subscrip
tion up to Jan. 1, 191 1.
The Referendum
As the time for the annual municipal
election approaches, we wish to call at
tention to the importance of adopting in
Alliance the referendum as provided for
in the statutes of Nebraska. The ques
tion as to whether saloons shall be li
censed will probably be the one of par
amount interest, as it usually is when it
is an issue. It is of immense importance
to the city that a spirit of unity and co
operation prevail among the busiuess
men and citizens generally. Where the
license question hinges upon the election
of one of two sets of candidates, there
is a much greater probability that hard
feelings will be engendered, than if left
to a direct vote.
Now that we have called attention to
this matter, we hope there will be some
one sufficiently interested to bring it of
ficially before the people that steps uec
essary for the adoption of the referen
dum may be taken before the time for
the next city election. Who will do it?
Please don't all speak at once.

two months, has resigned and gone to
Long Pine.
Word comes from Mr. Carney, for
merly ot the freight house, that ho now
has a good position in the postoffice in
Billings, Mont.
That business is pretty good here on
the C, B. & 0- demonstrated by the
fact that two of our conductors gave
their sweethearts diamond rings for
Christmas.

bony of the east end came into Al
liance Friday. The turntable at Sen
eca was broken and they had to bring

the welfare of the men at heart no1
more trains were run out of Alliance
the day before or on Christmas day
than were positively necessary. All
crews at Edgemont or Seneca who had
time were allowed to deadhead home
This was greatly appreciated by the

holiday at home.
A man and woman bad a very nar
row escape from death on Christmas
night. The engineer on No, 41 just

man and woman had been found both
quite seriously but not dangerously
hurt.
Last Saturday morning the mail car
on the outgoing Denver No. 301 was
found to be on fire in one end, and
almost one-half a car of mail was des
troyed before the flames could be ex
tinguished. It is supposed that a lamp
in the car exploded. No doubt a great
many Christmas presents were des
troyed but none of them belonged to
Alliance people as the mail came in on
No. 36 and had been tranferred to the
Denver. No blame is attached to the

RAILROAD NOTES.
Sidney Telegraph:
Geo. Jones, formerly a North Platte
railroad man, has been appointed yard
master at Northport for the Union Pa
cific. Wild cherry and coffee tree seed and
butternuts have been planted by the
Union Pacific near North Platte. Hick
ory nuts and other tree seeds will also

The trustees of the will of the late
President Perkins of the Burlington
railroad have conveyed, as instructed,
the property known as the Garden of
the Gods near Colorado Springs to that
city. One condition of the gift is that
no liquor shall ever be sold on the
ground. The president of this great
railroad knew the evil effects of liquor
on trainmen and train service. Good
work and bad liquor don't go hand in
hand. www.
