Remember all these goods are new and clean, and you will find your

being such an honorable and straightforward merchant. In proverbs.
King Soloman said that yon should be praised by others and not by
vourself. I can show a record in the various places I have done busi
ness that 1 have always, dealt square with 1113' customers and always
paid a hundred cents on the dollar and can back it by some of the
largest wholesale dealers in the United States, and this is more than the
boasting merchant can do. I never had aivy lire lawsuits or any other
lawsuits trying to beat 1113' creditors. Let those boasting merchants go
and look up their record and they will never again boast about being
honorable and straight. So far as competition is concerned, such com

of that place jjives the noted re
vivalist the following- blast: Na
than's blasphemous reference to the
Catholic confessional, last night,
ought to disgust any person with a
heart tilled with christian grace.
His abuse of the Episcopalians,
whom lie asserted did not claim to
be christians was equally as dis
gusting. If Nathan is to be con
sidered a fair exponent of "true
christians." and a follower of the
Lord, "what would Christ think" if
lie should appear and find such a
disciple creating dissention among
our christian people. For the peace
and good of North Platte and other
places who have Nathan booked for
a few nights at the opera house, we
would advise them to declare the
show off.

NORTH PLATTE. HOTELS.
North Platte is better supplied
with good hotels than almost an
other town ot twice its size in the
west. Four hostelries, with ac
commodations for two hundred
guests, invite the patronage of the
people who live in and visit the city.
On Saturday last Oberst & Breter
nitz formally opened the Nebraska
House and gave a dinner which
would do credit to a Delmonico.
This house has been renovated and
refurnished and presents a neat and
inviting appearance, and we predict
will do a good business under the
new management. J. C. Federhoof
opened the new Hotel Neville the
latter part of the week, moving in !
before the" building was finished in"
detail. These latter improvements
have since been completed, and a
formal and appetizing" opening
dinner will be given to-morrow.
The hotel presents an appearance
that must prove inviting to the tired
and hungrv traveler. In addition
to these hotels we have the Pacific
and the Hotel Central, both of
which are well conducted.

AVIXDMIIX IRKIGATION.
The question of irrigation is upon
us and we must handle it with good
judgement, and never shut our eyes
to the practicability of it. Win one
western half of Nebraska i
enough that most any amount of
water could be raised with out any
effect on the well. Also there is
not a quarter section in Nebraska
that properly handled would not
catch a very considerable amount
of surface water that other wise
runs to waste each year. The state
of Missouri has more pools over, its
surface than any other state, and
this is cause for her good crops
this season. When extreme dry
weather comes there is some thing
to cause evaporation also it has
been shown what effect the cutting
off of all the forests has on the rain
