A growler says he went to the camp fire on
Friday evening of last week to learn something
abest real soldiering or rather to hear the
old soldiers tell some stories, and he wants to
know why those who were too young to be 6ol

called oa to do the principal speaking. If this
paper devoted its columns to answer growler's

Boeeaf eld & Schlesinger, who have been en
gaged in the clothing business in this city for
the past two years, are getting ready to ship their
stock to Pueblo, Col., which city, they think,
holds oat better inducements to business men
than does North Platte. L. Rosenf eld, the resi
dent partner, has made many f-Jiends and ac
quaintances during his stay in the city and they
together with The Tribune wish him health,
wealth and happiness in the metropolis of south-
em Colorado.
The county commissioners granted a permit
to a draggist in Wallace this week to'sell liquors
without requiring a compliance of the law, a
proceeding at which we were somewhat sur
prised. It was probably done however without
giving the law proper examination. This will
not help the druggist, however, as if he is selling
liqaor he is doing bo without proper legal author
ity, and is liable to prosecution and fine. The
petition was filed on Monday and the permit
granted on the same day; whereas the law says
that no action shall be taken upon said applica
tion aatil at least two weeks notice of the filing
of the same has been given, not notice of inten
tion to file, but notice of the filing. ' By immedi
ate action the board has virtually frustrated the
intention of the law by not giving parties who
ay have felt disposed to do so an opportunity
to file a remonstrance or protest, who are not
supposed to have knowledge of the application
astil after the application is filed. Again the
law ears the two weeks notice shall be given by
on in a newspaper published in said
having the largest circulation therein.

beans. Mr. H. will play solitaire for the next

oat the road this week looking after trade. The
excellence of the flour made by this mill insures
a good trade for the dealer after he once gets it
introduced.
Mrs.H. 8. Keith will leave the latter part of
the month to spend the summer with her parents
near Mankota, Minn. This city is situated in the
"lake region" of Minnesota, and Mrs. K. will

ant manner.
W. A. Jamieson, who has filled the position of
steward at the Pacific Hotel for the past eighteen
months, left Tuesday night forComo, Colorado,
to take charge of the Pacific Hotel Co's house at
that point. Mr. J. is a pleasant gentleman, a
good hotel man and well deserves the promotion.
We wish him success in his new field.
Frank C. Wilson, who has been spending the
winter in the south, was in town several days
this week, having came here on the sad errand of
interring his little girl. Mr. Wilson's path
through life for the past three years has surely
been strewn with thorns. First he was taken
down with sickness and for several months
lay at the verge of death, but by care nursing he
pulled through, though since then his health has
been greatly impaired. Scarcely had he arisen
from his bed when his wife, in giving birth to
the little girl, died, and now to crown the pyra
mid of grief thisTsweet little treasure has been
taken from him Frank is well known here and
his friends extend their sympathy to him.
Mr. Adell has completed four deep
wells for the water works, and it is ex
pected connection with one of the pumps
will be made this afternoon. There will
be four more wells put down, but it is
likely more than eight will be required.
The comDanv will keep on sinking until
the supply is 2,700 gallons per minute,
anyway.
Blanch Weidmeyer to celebrate her
eighth birthday, will give a party to a
number of her friends at the residence of
Prof. Allwine this afternoon.

formation of a military company was ad
vertised to be held at Hoagland & Risse's

Platte citizen but more recently of Wash
ington, D. C, with his family arrived
Wednesday and has formed a partner
ship with Beach I. Hinman in the law
business.
Real estate in the .Town Lot Co's

H. Otten announces his intention of
retiring from the clothing business, hav
ing made a future sale to Weber & Voll-
mer. Our people will regret this step of
.air. uuen's, lor he has proven himselt a
No. 1 clothing man, his store having a
wide reputation. North Platte will not
lose him however, for he has other large
business interests that will engage his
attention.
There was a man in town a couple
days last week trying to dispose of a
horse, which Sheriff Baker soon became
convinced he had stolen. He also tried
to borrow $35 from several parties giving
tne animal as security, without success.
Being closely shadowed, the fellow con
cluded it was getting too warm and skip
ped. Baker then seized the horse and
soon learned he belonged to a man named
Lowe of .Madrid, .Perkins County. Mr.
Lowe came over and secured his property.
-There was a somewhat unique wed
ding at the jail Monday morning. A fel-
ow named bwartz had been arrested for
abusing a young woman. To the sur
prise of every body, the complainant ap
peared before the County Judge Monday
mornmg asking for a marriage license.
bverythmg appeared to be all right, the
icense was issued, and the Judge was in
vited down to the jail to tie the nuptial
not. Which the same he did. the com
plaint having been dismissed.

has been demonstrated during the late
rainy spell to be bad. That the street
gutters if kept clean will carry all the
water that falls within the city limits is
quite evident. But they won't do so un-
ess kept free from obstructions. If this
is done and the water fall west of the city

Syl Friend, the new streeet commis
sioner, commenced work, in earnest as
soon as appointed. The hoe and the
spade were freely used, and the result
was that the great ponds of water in the
west end soon dissapeared . The remark
has been made that Mr. Friend has not
the ability to make a good chief of police,
but that he is a good worker. But can't
the people afford for a time to put up
with a little less ability and a little more
work? If ability has failed to properly
drain tbe city, we apprehend that work
will not
The Passenger Department of the
Union Pacific, "the overland route," has
gotten out a fly-bill designed to call at
tention to the summer resorts along the
line of this railway . It is a good bill,
and tourists, pleasure seekers, sportsmen
and fishermen should apply at once to J.
S. Tebbets, General Passenger and Ticket
Agent, Omaha, Neb., for information in
regard to the points of interest along this
line, before deciding where they will
spend the summer season, or vacation
holidays.
In our description of the creamery
last week we were "away off" in saying
there were but seven rooms. There are
eleven rooms, the butter room with its ice
room and the wash room, being two prin
cipal compartments omitted entirely.
The whole building and plant is complete.
Mr. Gibbon, the gentleman who is here to
put the machinery in order, says it is one
of the best in the country.
F. A. Shepard leaves this evening
Omaha to lay in a stock of goods in
line which will surpass anything ever
hibited here before. Mr. Shepard is
meeting with good success in his recent
venture and believes it will pay him to
enlarge his stock, aiming to keep on hand
everything that comes under the confec
tionery head. Readers of The Trihtjne
may expect to see a large ana vanea stocK
of goods at his store the coming week.
Death has again taken away one of
earth's most beautiful flowers. Little
Pansy, only child and daughter of Mr.
Frank C. Wilson, died at the home of her
grand parents in Kearney last Saturday
of Spinal Meningitis aged two years and
16 days. The funeral took place at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Griffin of this place
last Monday at 3 p. m., Mr. and Mrs. P.
W. Wilson, grand parents, of Kearney,
Mrs. C. W. Greer, of Cozad, and imme
diate friends being in attendance and
Rev. Hopkins officiating. The grand
parents were to her as parents since the
death of her mother about two years ago,
when little Pansy was but three weeks
old. How sweet the welcome of mother
to child in the better land!
The sociable and soldiers' supper at
the Court House last Friday evening was
a pleasant affair all around, the regret be
ing that the weather was such as to pre
vent the attendance of many who desired
to be present. And there was possibly
another cause that contributed to the non
attendance the boys called it a "bean
eat," a term that grated harshly on the
ears of a good many. There were beans
to eat, it is truer and they were cooked
very nicely; good hard tack, coffee and
etceteras that go to make up a soldiers
substantial meal; but there was an ab
sence ot some tnings suggested by a
"bean-eat." After all who desired had
partaken of refreshments, the "camp fire"
was kindled, and speeches were made by
nearly all tbe talkers present. The re
ceipts were light but as the expenses were
not great, the relief fund of the rost will
be augmented by about twenty-five
dollars.

John Hinman will soon begin the
erection of another house on his lot
on west Fittn street, ana wnen

join the benedictine ranks. .
' The Tkibuue last week neglected to
mention the re-arrangement of the post-
office under the personal direction of Mr.
Wherry, who believes in systematizing
matters so as to insure expediency in dis
teijMrtiftg the; mails.
The injunction case in which Geo.
P. Golvin is plaintiff, restraining the aud
itor from registering the O'Fallon pre
cinct bridge bonds, was set for hearing
yesterday in the district court of Lancas

Although The Tribune job depart
ment has been crowded with work for
several weeks past, we will be pleased to
receive your orders for stationery. If
the work is not satisfactory you are not
asked to accept it. This is the guarantee
we hold out to customers.
The water main ditches across streets
in the west end were rather dangerous to
teams and stock during the wet spell the
early part of the week. Sunday morning
a cow belonging to Dan Burke in attempt
ing to cross the ditch on Fifth was mired
and it took considerable time and work
to extricate her.
Mountain lions are again making
raids in the western part of this and Keith
county, a number of calves and several
cows having been killed and devoured
within the past week. If Neville, Mc
Evoy, Price and a few other North Platte
nimrods feel like taking a hunt, they
should start in puisult of the aforesaid
lions.
The heaviest fall of rain that has oc-
cured in this section for a number of
years came down during the ten days end
ing May 8th. While at no time was there
a heavy shower, the rain was more or less
continuous, the aggregate fall being 4.40
inches. With warm weather now, crops
will grow with great rapidity.
A farmer tells us to advise our coun
try friends not to be in a hurry to plant
corn while it continues wet and cold; bet
ter plant the first of June and get a good
healthy stand than when it is wet and
cold, when the stalks come up yellow
and sickly looking with but a half or two-
thirds of a stand.
Now comes Henry Faka and pro
poses to build a canal from the Rocky
mountains to the Missouri River, making
direct water communication with JNew
Url eans . The scheme Is practicable? but!
in these days of railroads the slowness of
water transportation tires the shipper, and
we doubt if sufficient freight could be se
cured to make it pay. The railroad is
more expensive and not near so good for
the people, but this is a fast age, and the
days of the slow canal have passed.
Decoration Day at McPherson.
Capt. Baker, Superintendent of the Na
tional Cemetery at the old pos$ of McPher
son, is making preparation to celebrate
Decoration day.
John I. Nesbitt of this city has accepted
an invitation to deliver the oration. Mr.
Nesbitt is one of the most forcible And
pleasing speakers in Western Nebraska,
and at the beautiful grounds, maintained
by the government, and dedicated to our
Nation's dead, is a htting place to observe
this day.
Ample provision will be made to ac
comodate all who attend, in the groves
surrounding the cemetery, and the oppor
tunity to enjoy a basket picnic will be
complete. The cemetery is a pleasant
drive from North Platte, Gothenburg,
Farnam,rand Wellfleet. A large number
of visitors and a pleasant and profitable
time is expected.
Benefit for the M. E. Sunday School.
The managers of the M. E. Sunday
School have made arrangements with
Woody Brothers famous Male Quartette
and Miss Maggie Woody of Chicago to
give a concert at Lloyd's Opera House
on the evening of May 16th. The
Woody Brothers have acquired a wide
reputation throughout the United States,
as among the best singers in the country.
Their repertorie contains many selections
provoking the heartiest laughter, yet their
entertainment is of a high and elevating
nature. John A. Logan said they are
the sweet singers of the West.

Sign Your Name.
An occasional contributor sends in a
communication asking certain questions,
and very prooeriv too. relative to the con-
itif about readj' duct of public affairs, which we do not
' -poured Into puonsn for two reasons one that he does
not sign his name to the communication,
and second that he makes two or three
statements that are not sustained by the
facts. We will try to answer a few of his
questions:
It is the duty of the county attorney to
prosecute all criminal cases before the
district court, but in the case of Long,
Mr. Nesbitt before he was elected County
Attorney was one of Long's attorneys, and
our correspondent will see that it is mani
festly improper for him to prosecute
Long.
It is not a fact that Church & Bixler
put in a big bill for their work for prose
cuting Long and afterwards levied on
property of defendant for their fees as at
torneys against him. Their fees were
fixed by the J udge and allowed by the
county commissioners. Long's propertv
was levied on by the county for costs in
the case .
When the bill in the Giles Smith in
quest is filed with the county clerk, we
can better answer questions relative to
that matter.
Once more we will say we are willing
to publish communications criticising
public ofllcials or the conduct of public
affairs; but we can not publish .serious
charges under a non de plume. For what
the paper says we are responsible ; and in
articles likely to "create a row," writers
must bear a portion of that responsibility.
