Larson and White File Acceptance
Joseph Larson and J. R. White
filed with tho county clork yesterday
their accoptanco ot tho democratic
nomination for county clerk and coun
ty treasurer respectively. Tho
names of these men woro not printed
on tho ballotB, but by suggestion of
Nortli Platto democrats word was
passed among tho "faithful" to write
In tho names with tho result that Mr.
Larson received 140 votes and Mr.
Wlilto eighty-four. Prior to the pri
mary an attempt was mado to havo
Mr. White consent to become a candi
date but he declined, and following his
declination it wna decided to "draft"
him. That ho has filed his acceptance
will bo n surpriso to many, as thoy pre

for county clerk, is chief clerk In the

Before tho largest crowd that has
yet been out to a ball game this year
North Platto went down to defeat tho
last day of the tournament at the
hands of tho Cozad aggregation by the
score ot 2 to 1 and Ogalalla defeated
Ilershoy by tho same score. Both
games were fast and were tho best
gnmes or tho tournnment. Tho Oga-lalla-Hcrshoy
game was played In
ono hour and thirty minutes nnd the
other in an hour and forty-five min
utes. In tho first game Ogalalla scored
ono In tho first nnd Hershey ono If
the secon,d. Thero was no more scor
ing then until tho eighth and It look
ed as though nn extra inning ganio
would bo required. In the eighth
Burke lined out a two baggor, Beal
sacrificed, putting him on third and
Marlett sacrificed, scoring Burke.
Both teams then tightened, but the
ganio was lost as tho Giants were un
ablo to tlo up tho score. Bcchon nl-
lowcd seven hits and struck out seven
men and Marlett allowed two lilts
and struck out flvo. Each side mndo
only ono error.
The Cozad-North. Platte game wad
a fight from tho start, and no scores
woro recorded until tho fifth Inning"
when Cozad bunched five hits and
ran across two scores. In the second
Inning, however, Pierce, running for
Pass, worked a squeeze play In from
third, but tho catcher interfered with
tho batsman nnd tho umpire made
him go back to his baso on tho ground
that it was a dead hall. Tho locals
lost somo of their ginger nftcr that,
but thoy played good ball and Jones
tightened up nnd did not give tho
hoys from tho onst a look In. North
l'lntto scored ono. In tho ninth when
with two out Twoomy lined out a two
baggor. Sandnll then pinchccl hit
for Halllgan and lined out nnothor,
scoring Twoomoy, but Jones ground
ed out, ending the gnmo witli the
score 2 to 1. Artloy allowed four hits
and struck out flvo nnd Jones allowed
sovon hits and struck out soven. Each
team mado four errors.
Tho results of tho tournnment left
Cozad and Ognlalla with honors oven
for first and second place and North
Platto and Ilershoy with equal chanc
es for third and fourth plnce.
Close of Union Sen Ices.
Tho last of the summer union out
door services was held Sunday even
ing at the school house park and the
largest crowd that has yet attended
was present. The services were ex
ceptionally interesting and the meet
ings promlso to bo much more popu

this year. Rev. J. L. Barton of tho
Baptist church preached the sermon
Sunday evening and he gave a very
practical talk upon living the chris
tian life. Special music for the oc
casion by a male quartet, composed of
Messrs. Bruce Brown, James Shaffer,
Dr. Harry Mitchell and A. T. Yost.
Following tho services the band
concert was given on tho court house
lawn and it was very good and a
large number attended. The boys are
improving in playing all of the while
and a marked difference can be no
ticed with the addition of tho now bass
