THE NORTH PLATTE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE ScmMJeeklu Subline. WILSON TOUT. Editor and Publisher, Entered at the North Platto, Nebraska Postofflce as Second Class Matter. SUBSCKIFTION PMCEt One Year, In advance, $1.50 MiDITOIUAL This Week wo prfhted u quantity of adhesive labels for the Qualloy Dairy. Thoy conUilu the following information "Tho milk in this bottio was produced by cows which havo beon tested by a licensed vetonarlnn and found to bo absolutely frco from any tubercular Infection. Evory cow tested 100. Those labels arc moisten ed and pasted on tllo milk bottles and aro n gunrnntoo of tho purity of tho milk. During tho spring migrations a numbor of birds aro accidentally kill ed oach yoar. Wo find thorn about tho city and in all parts of tho country. Tlioy tq sometimes strange Minis and if identified would add something to the knowlcdgo of bird life. The editor is oqulpped to identify almost any bird ho can socuro and ho will v conaidor it a ploasuro to namo tho birds and put tho record in print if the specimen is Rout to him. Novor shoot a bird for this purposo but tako advantage of the accidents. Fivo cent lollypops havo como. Wo havo been enjoying tho sight of a bunch of school girls or boyB going down tho street without saying a word, each holding onto ono end of a lollypop and sucking tho othor ond. Thoy havo looked so happy with their penny lumps of swootnoss. Now comes tho fivo cont lollypop which is five times as big and thoroforo fivo times aa swcot as tho penny brand. They fit somo mouths and' sbmo havo to bo stretched. Wo wondor what tho avor ngo chap would do with a ton cont lollypop or If tho ll'mlt'lins now boon reached. ' ablo to got a confession from any with Whom wo havo talked but It may be true. Svcral times in the. past years, citizens have suffered from tho wanton destruction of beds of beautiful flow ers and little blame could attach to anyono who would glvo such mara uders a pretty hot reception. Hun dreds of dollars wortli of bulbs have been planted in theso gardens and Htill moro valuablo tEmc has boon givou to their caro and thoso who havo oxpended this time nnd monoy avh ontitlod to share with tho passer by in the enjoyment of the beauty. Tho Trlbuno does not need to bo subsidized to glvo tho news. A church society In this city recently camo to us for the prices on a llttlo Job of printing which It cxpoctod to pay for. Wo gavo prices and later learned that tho Job had boon placed elsewhere Wo havo glvon that particular society as much spaco to advertlso Its meet ings and stippers during tho past year as it would havo cost thorn throe times tho -amount of tho Job and we havo glvon It freely. Tho officers of that socloty go on tho theory that they will patronize tho nowspapors when they want frco printing but will go olsowhoro whon thoy havo a pay Job It hurts sometimes but wo aro going right on printing, tho news Just the same. Wo do not hold It against the socloty that it has that kind of of flcials. Wo oxpoct to print tho news for our readers regardless of tho busi ness oiul of our shop and trust that a llttlo light will trickle into tho dark places. Tho Trlbuno does not need to e subsidized to "glvo tho news. Someone has asked us why wo glvo such promlnont fr6nt-pago notlco to tho dolngu of the1 High schools, tho scouts, tho cainpfh'e girls and sim ilar organizations of boys and girls. Wb havo told thorn that, tho doings of tho boys and girlb aro of more sig nificance than most of tho doings of us older people It makes-all tho dif ference in tho world to North Platto Tvhethor hor young folks hold a High school dobato or a Hollywood de bauch.

It is an interesting and in structivo document. Thoso who have Boon It havo Inquired why Lincoln County taxpayers do not havo such an investigation. There Is enough rum org of this and that regarding tax ation and tho oxpondituro of taxes that would roqulro Investigation, to glvo tho commlttoo something intor eating to work on. Tho farmors havo their complaints, tho laboring men havo their grlovcncos, tho business mon plan for tax reductions and al most ovoryono thinks ho can seo somothlng wrong. Thoro Is no central authority to whom ono can go and which is Inviting us to como. Tho Taxpayers' League should bo organ ized first and thon tho mombors should havo a special committee composed of tho most ablo and respected citi zens of tho couiity. This commlttoo should make such investigations ns it soes fit and hold such public hear ings an soom best and then mako a report to tho Taxpayers' Loaguo.
