A Slam at North Platte.
The last issue of tho Ogalalla Ncw3
in spoaking of a cessation in tho build
ing boom in neighboring towns, said:
"Particularly is this true of North
Platto where lfoveral olegant residences
that were built during tho good times
of n year or so ago are being sold and
disposed of at a great sacrifice, several
of thorn haveing been sold for less
than half what It cost to erect therr.."
This statement by tho News is bo
grossly wrong as to be actually funny.
During the pnst two yenrs not an
"elegant residence" other than the
old liarton property has been sold, und
the last sale was at an advance in price
over the former sale. On the othor
hnnd seven residences costing upwards
of $6,000 each havo been erected this
season; if housos built a year or two
ago wore boing oh"orcd at less than
half what they cost, would not these
builders have purchased instead of
building' For instance there is C. W.
Iloxic, of Ogalalla, who is now building
a $7,000 residence in this city and wjll
move his family here. He attempted
to purchase sovoral residences but con
cluded the prices were too high. Then
ngain, vacant fcoidenco lots 06x132
feet, fivo blocks from tho main street,
soil for $1,500 to$2,000; is that evidence
of cheap property?
The fact is, thcro has been more new
residences erected in North Platto this
year thaji for several years past; there
aro very few vacant houses; there
in not 'a vacunt business room in tho
city, nnd tho general prosperity of
North Platto was never greater.
Wo will excuse Colonel Morgan's
Btatement on tho grounds of ignorance
rather than maliciousness, but if he. has
doubt as to the truthfulness of our
statements, wo invito him to corro
down and wc "will show him."
The Nebraska atnto fair last week
has been pronounced tho greatest yot
held, not only in point of attendance,
but in exhibits, and especially the ex
hibition of live stock. Tho total at
tendance was 166,69-1, or nearly -1,000
more than last year. I
Efficiency That Should Count.
Under Rooievelt, tho expenditures
of tho government for oridnary running
oxpensos increased each year, until the
aggregate total reached the highest in
history, $602,000,000. At the same time,
a surplus of $90,000,000 in 1902 became
a deficit of $58,000,000 in 1909. During
that period of seven years the ordinary
expenditures of the government in
increased $191,000,000 or 40 por cent.
Mr. Taft might havo acquiesced in
this Increase, relying on the precedent
of twenty years, but he did not. He
set himself about to put tho business
afFairs of tho government on a more
economical basis. Without in anyway
interfering with tho efficiency of tho
administration, the president, haB
not only checked the annual in
crease in expense of about $35,000,000,
but has brought about an actual reduc
tion, the cost of running the govern
ment having been cut down from $602,
000,000 to $654,000,000. And the deficit
of $58,000,000 in the Inst year of tho
Roosevelt administration hns been
turned to a surplus of $36,000,000 in the
last year of Mr. Taft's first term.
'Iheso figuros ought to appeal to the
intelligent voters of the United States,
no matter of what party, for they rep
resent efficiency in the conduct of pub
lic business Omaha Bee.

It hardly seems possible, yet statistics
provo that the drink bill of this country
por year is ninety-one dollars per
family. That is one month's tmlnry
out of twolvo for tho average mechanic,
and six weeks Balary for a laborer. Of
course tho big spenders for drink are
ths wealthy, whoso liquor bill during a
year runs into the thousands, yet there
is not one in a hundred drinkers who
can afford to spend tho money they do
for beer and whiskey.

Tho Standard Oil Co. will file an in

which they can Bull at from ono to

that by udmitting tho sale of this fifty

A report comes from Lincoln to the
effect that Governor Aldrich has suc
ceeded in winning tho support of tho
brewers, an influonce that is to be
reckoned with in Nebraska politics. Two
years ago tho govornor was strong for
county option and in this stand was op
posed by tho brewers and their follow
ers, but tho temperance people camo to
his,rescuo and offset tho strength of
tho ueer men. Now that tho support
of tho brewers has been promised it
ought to bo easy sailing for Aldrich, as
tho tomporanco people will support him
in preference to Moorohead, even
though thoir enemy, tho liquor inter
ests', ure for him. In socurlng tho sup
port of tho browors the governor has
nude a smooth political deal.

Bale Your Hay and Sell It
THERE is always a ready market at a good
price for baled hay. It can be handled
easily. It prevents waste. Baling is
most profitable when you use I H C pull power
presses requiring either one or two horses;
or I H C motor presses using 3, 4, or 6-horse
power I H C engines. Both styles have three
separate bale chamber sizes, 14 x 18 inches,
16 x 18 inches, 17 x 22 inches. Many farmers
feed their own stock silage and shredded corn
stover and sell their high-priced hay. A big
majority of them
Use I H C Hay Presses
The I H C pull power press has a greater
capacity than any other horse press of its size.
- The stepover is.the lowest and narrowest made.
An adjustable bale tension insures compact
bales. A roller tucker makes each bale neat
and smooth in appearance.
The I H C motor press consists of a bale
chamber and an I H C engine, mounted to
gether on substantial trucks. When not bal
ing hay you have a portable I PI C engine,
which can bo used to saw wood, pump water,
shell corn, grind feed, separate cream, or to
run any farm machine for which its power
makes it suitable. Two perfect machines in one.
Can on the I H C local dealer in your town,
or, write for an I H C hay press catalogue.
