P. MANN | HOW THE PIRATES. HOLD DP FARMERS (Continued from Fonrth Page ) has been sold as low as one dollar per quarter section. This seems incredible, but they are the facts as shown by the county records. Thousands of acres of land in this county the land pi rates have obtained title to by this method. When they have not purchased the land at these “public” sheriff sales they have by this system of running up high printer’s fees and other il legal costs charged by the sheriff forced the owners to let go at very nominal figures. Once they have title to the land they are in position to size up the farmer’s pile and hold him up for from four to ten times what the land has cost them. How many farm ers are there in this county that have not had similar experience with this gang of pirates during the last two years? Since our expose of the methods of this corrupt gang we have received innumerable letters from farmers in all parts of the county telling of their experience in trying to rent or buy a piece of land that some member of the gang had got away from them. Most of the non-resident land owners are not “land speculators” as the populist press of this county would have you believe. Most of them are people who have been compelled to against their will, and in most cases would be glad to sell at much less than they have invested, and every farmer knows he can deal better with the land owners than with the pirates. If this system of wholesale land grabbing continues the farmers of this county will be at the mercy of the gang for land on which to graze their stock. There is only one way to put a stop to this damnable practice of plundering the county and robbing people of their land, and that is to elect the republican ticket, which stands pledged to put a stop to it at once. When the Independent starts out with a lie it continues to hold the lie up as unvarnished truth though it is proven a hundred times false. Not withstanding the very plain state j ment made by J. C. Ecker of Dixon to the effect that Charlie Hall had nothing to do with the getting of that $75 from Scott, which the pop ulist papers are earnestly seeking to impute to Hr. Hall, the Independ ent still claims Hall “got the mon ey.” Does the Independent think people believe everything the wandering mind of its editor may conceive? The people of Holt county are too much imbued with the western spirit of fair play to conte nance such ruthless lying by voting for* a set of fellows that resort to such meanse of getting into office. Mr. Ecker is himself a populist, but not of the stripe of the O’Neill gang. He shows a spirit of fairness and a desire for the blame to rest only where it belongs. And yet in the face of this fact the desperate gang continues to flaunt its lies before an intelligent and truth loving public. The voters of this county have, in the person of James Holden, the opportunity to elect a good, honest, capable farmer to the office of county treasurer. A man who will not be under the influence and who will not lend his assistance to the corrupt gang of land pirates that are not only robbing poor people out of their land but plundering the county out of thousands of dollars of taxes. -•_«•»_« One of the delegates from Gar field county to the populist senator ial convention held in O’Neill last fall suggested “that Holt county seemed to have been made for the Harrington and Mullen families.” If this system of tax foreclorure continues much longer they certainly will own the greater portion of it. BUT MR. EVES DIDN’T PAY ’EM As Mr. Eves was not man enough to call and pay our taxes as he agreed if we prov ed certain things, which we done to the satisfaction of even the most ardent supporter of the gang, we have paid the taxes ourself and hold the treasurer’s receipt. Now, let the members of the land syndicate step up and pay tbeir taxes and allow “the school districts” to have the use of the money they owe. The county has not been beat out ot a cent in tiiis trans action, either, Mr. Eves; some what ditferent to the gang methods. Four years ago the populist papers of this county were making the same defense for John Stewart as to his being a sober man that they are now making for Blackmer. The facts are that Blackmer is as near like John Stewart as any man in the county. The gang has even taken to (juot ing Ham Ivautzman, whom they gave $2,000 to get him out of the couutry. Stuart Ledger: After next week’s paper is published, let’s all kiss and make up. Sorry I’m not a pop, sister. Dr. P. N.

Words are but feeble instruments to ex press the sorrow of the stricken husband in this sad hour. Mrs. Green had gone from her home in O’Neill for a few week’s visit at Meadow Grove and was taken ili soon after her arrival there. Mr. Green was called down by telegram and returned the following day as his wife was improved and thought to be getting well. Last Wednesday Mr. Green was called down again and re mained by her bedside until death came. They had been married but two months and ten days and the blow was almost more than the husband could bear. The funeral occurred Monday afternoon at Meadow Grove. Mr. Green returned to O’Neill Tuesday, accompanied by his sister and a brother and sister of Mrs. Green. ■■ - --— Col. A. L. TOWLE of Valentine will speak at 2 p.m., Saturday, Novem ber 2, at the G.
