He passed away on Januarv 15th, 1S97, at 7 o'clock in the morning. It required a hard strug
gle for ns to give Mm up as he'was a dear friend of ours. Fall well we remember how we used to
take him home with us, to eat, think and sleep with him; so my dear readers you can imagine how
near and dear he was to us. But we have laid him to rest and wish him well, and hope our com
petitors will treat him with as much respect as we have. But our conscience is clear, as we have
done nothing we are sorry for. We are in it to a finish, with the largest stock of goods iu the city

The plans adopted by some of
the ladies of town to earn their
church offering on Easter are rather
amusing as well as arduous. One
young lady, well known in societTr
has taken a contract for scrubbing"
the floors of her friends' houses,
another has made two or three
dozen gingham aprons which she
has sold at a profit of 12 cents
each; another is earning her Lenten
money by darning stockings which
she collects in the neighborhood;
another bakes and sells bread;
another has knit and sold a dozen
or more pairs of house slippers.
These are only examples of the
many ways employed by the ladies
in earning their Easter offering,
the performance of which is also of
the nature of a penance.
If the statements given out by
the canvassing board at Lincoln
arc true, gross errors were made by
the election boards in a number of
Lincoln county precincts. In one
precinct name not given it is re
ported that thirty-six votes were
cast for the amendment relating to
the increase in supreme judges.and
six against, while the poll-book
showed that not a vote had -been
cast either for or against the
amendment. The canvassing
board also claims that the ballots
from Antelope precinct had never
been unfolded after being dropped
in the box by the voters. These
are rather serious charges to prefer
against the election officers of the
precincts affected, and an investi
gation should follow. If gross
errors are found in the count of the
amendments, is it fair to presume
that the resrnlar ballots were
counted fairly and squarely? It
matters not to The Tribune
whether the members of the elec
tion boards were republicans or pop
ulists; if there is a nisrirer in the
wood-pile he should be uncovered.
