hut a oupory Inspection of their val

„ seeing that they are so cute and cunning
we would like for them to deduce a log
ical answer from this proposition: So
far as the people's interests are con
cerned, which is the worse, the man
who steals #90,000 from the county, or
the board of supervisors which invali
dates his official bond in such a manner
that the amount stolen cannot be recov
ered?
Whoever It was that participated in
egging Kautzman in Atkinson last Tu
esday night, did so without justification.
While be is an old reprobate and has
always been a stench in tbe nostrils of
decent.people of Holt county and prob
ably—in a way—deserved it, still it was
not justifiable. Such exhibitions are
never justifiable. Atkinson, however,
is a hot town and we are not at all sur
prised that a goodly number of citizens
took this way of informing the Jew
that he was not a welcome visitor, es
pecially upon the anniversary of Scott’s
murder, for which a great many people
hold him morally responsible.
The grasping, avaricious loan com
panies are not satisfied with robbing the
poor homesteader, of which we heard
so much in the late campaign, but they
reach out for all classes of people, and
do not let even our governor escape its
tentacles. Among a batch of foreclos
ures recedtly filed in the district court is
one by the Security, Trust and Deposit
company agaiust S. A. Holcomb and
they ask the court to make the governor
pay off a mortgage of 91,500 past due
nqprly two years, with accrued interest,
or make an order allowing them to sell
the farm. Another thing brought out
in the petition on file is that the gover
nor has not been contributing bis Just
proportion of the taxes to support our
extravagant pop county government, as
it recites that the taxes on Silas’ farm
have not been paid for the years 1808,
1898 and 1894. The governor was one
of the fellows who assisted in saddling
the pops on our county and he ought to
stand by the job and chip in his mite
annually towards supporting such a lux
ury.—Ouster County Republican.

A BIG
REWARD
Howards—usually—come
to those who investigate:
The best Beaver overcoat (with velvet collar) that could be
bought in this western country-for $8—same thing here $4.75.
The best possible Patent Beaver overcoat (velvet collar) any
body could buy $10—is to be had here for $6.75
The best thing for an ulster to be had for $7.50, here only $4,
and an all wool suit for $4.75.
And all we ask is for you to investigate—Our goods are not
only that cheap, but better made, better trimmed and better ap
pearing.
Of course we prefer to deal with you in our store, but if you
can’t come we will send you anything you order. If it aint just as
we represent it your money goes back to you by the' next train.
That’s the kind of a concern we are.
