ROMAINE SAUNDERS, Associate. jicanf,MBBi [Newspaper "Blind, Blind.” Bixby: Nowhere does the good book uphold the doctrine promul gated by the women suffragists. While the poet is pulling the motes out of the eyes of Sam Jones and ltev. Shamel that they may see that Infinite love does not authorize the whipping of little children, he should be casting the beam out of his own eye that he may see that Infinite justice does not authorize any distinctions of caste or class or sex. God is do respector of persons. In the beginning, male and female cre ated he and gave them, not him, dominion over the earth. The doctrine promulgated by the woman suffragists is but the doctrine of justice, plain justice; and had it no other authority than the simple rule, “Do unto others as ye would that they should do unto you,” its foundation in the good book would be secure. But Christ laid down once for all the Divine authority for the equality of the sexes when he said to the ac cucers of the sinful woman: “He .that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” It was unto woman that ho first gave the commission to proclaim His resurrection, since it was she who was last at the cross and first at the tomb, and she has remained closer to the former ever since. As 1'aul, tbe lormer persecutor oi Christians, came more nnd more uuder the inlluence of the Nazareue’s teachings, his ideas of men and women changed until he, too, de dared that "there is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor fe male, but all are one in Christ Jesus.” O that men could treat the bible more reverently than to throw it in the way of every advanced step humanity takes. The above is the product of the fertile brain and active typewriter of Laura A. Gregg, an admirable lady who has the sand to ask for what she thinks she onght to have, but with whom the editor of the female suffrage department of The Fron tier has not the honor of an acquaintance. We are not the man to wit hold the ballot from America's fair dames, but our reading of Holy Writ is of different interpretation than set forth in the above. In her zeal to grasp the ballot the writer has confused spiritual life with the political. The same Christ that said “he that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone,” also said: “My kingdom is noi of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews.” The Word which suffra gists try to bend to their purpose is full of spiritual edification and beautiful and tender sentiments calling wandering sinners from a world of darkness and despair to share in the love of God, but the affairs of the world is therein com mitted unto the kings of the earth, “for all these things do the nations of the world seek after.” The Bame Paul that said “there is neither male nor female” also said: “For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, for as much as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.” And that women be “keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.” “But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the mau, but to be in silence,” therefore “let the women learn in silence with all subjection,.... for Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” In the affairs of this world, from a biblical standpoint, man is un questionably the masterpiece. In the affairs of spiritual life, character, and not sex, counts. In this, we freely admit, woman has the pie eminence over man. And may not the higher moral plane of woman be largely due to her separation from political and worldly things that engross and corrupt the hearts of men ? -- “Hit it hard for the next two months” is the policy of the pop land syndicate since election. The closing moments of the syndicate power deals the death blow to the remnants of populism in Holt county. Additional Local Thinks Winter Wheat the Thing. Columbus Journal: Indian summer stems to lap into winter, which makes it favorable for wintering all stock cattle, and a trip 72 miles north and 84 miles west last week showed the con ditions about the same as here, except as to hay, which is in abundance a at the latter place; very little coru, and Belling at (50 cents a bushel, and in our judgment the (test good farm land we saw, was a strip of valley land about 20 miles wide, lying immediately south of AtkiDsou. in the west central part of Holt county. The south fork of the Elkhorn liver llT>ws by Atkinsou about (10 rods south of the city and then for 20 miles south to the upland, lies a beautiful level country of rich, dark soil, slightlv mixed with a flue sand, which produces heavy grass this year, and also corn and small spring grain where planted. The bluff or uplands referred to above, is yet mostly govera meut land, and subject to entry by homestead or timber claim . Our party was present and witnessed tiie sale at public auction of all the school lands held by the state in Holt county, not under lease. The sale was condneted very rapidly, all the land being disposed of iu less than two hours, on Monday, November 18, in the court house at O'Neill. Deputy Commissioner H. M. Eaton, was the crier, who was very courteous and fair in the manner of selling, which gave general satisfaction to all interested White at Atkinsou we were shown the old home residence ot Joe Bartley. The bouse stands on the eastern limits of the city, is a square cottage, two etjrics in bight, with hipped roof; the buildings paimed a beautiful greeu; iiis extensive ranch extends from the home far to the east and south; and good judgment * as in selecting land for his ranch. Our attention was called to one peculiar thing that nearly all the straw stacks lying near and between O'Neill ami Atkinson, were bought up this fall, at what we thought a big price, $15 per stack of setting from four grain stacks, which averaged about Uve acres of grain to the slack, or twenty acres of straw. A farmer told us that winter wtieat could not be grown there, but one of our party being a crank on fall wheat, and a successful grower of the same, said: “The fact is that you fellows have been so successful iu herd ing your cattle on the grass in summer, and starving then, in the winter, that you have become indifferent as to giv ing fall wheat a fair trial.” Now, we knew that crat k, (if you will permit us to use that vulgar phrase), and we be lieve be could go out there and prove to them by practical example, that their soil and climate are just the thing to grow large crops of winter wheat. Resolutions. Whereas, it has pleased the Supreme Rulpr of the Universe in his great wisdom to call from our mhlst, one of our most esteemed and useful members, Ulustrous Protector, Clarence Selah; therefore be it, Resolved, by the Royal Highlanders of Dalkeith Castle number ninety-three of O'Neill. Nebraska, that it is with sincere regret and' deepest sorrow we part with Clansman Selah. realizing that we have lost one of our most faith ful and efficient officers, and the Order a loyal member, And Resolved that we extend to the bereaved family our heart felt sympathy in their great lose, know ing that while sadness and sorrow is resting on their home like a great cloud there is a silver lining in the fact that the wife can look back over her wedded life made so by a true and loving husband, the son can remember the kind and affectionate father, setting an example he can safely emulate; Brothers and Sisters can know that his life has added respect and honor to the family name so dear to them all; And Resolved that the Chatter of Dalkeith be draped in mourning for thirty days and that a copy of these resoul'.iou be presented to the family, and also that a copy he delivered to each of the local papers for publication, and be spred upon the records of the Castle.

Corrigan 25c. During the fore part of this week the editor had occasion to cal) on Dre. McLeran aud Bern in iheir new Dental Parlors over Corrigan’s drug store. Dr. McLeran being occupied with a patient in the chair his partner Dr Berry kindly showed us through the various depart, meats of the most completely equipped office in this section of the state. “I will tlrst show you our operating room,” said the Doctor, “here we have spared no expense to supply everything uuat and convenient for our patrons. Two of the latest model Columbia operating chairs with the finest cabinets gives us every facility for preforming the most successful operation on tbe Dental organs with tbe smallest degree of pain consistent with conscientious work. "Uiiv* about painless extract ions,”we inquired,“can it be done?” At that moment theDoctor was called to the door to admit a young lady who is well known to all our readers as one of the popular young teachers of our county. After a short consultation he turned to me with “i will answer your inquiry with a practical demonstration, this young lady Miss-wishes to have an ulcerated motor extracted, an opera tion that would ordinarily be very painful but whioh, with the help of Nitious Oxide gas can now be taken out with absolutely no pain.” Miss -then took a Beat in the chair aud the inflated rubber inhaler was placed over her nostrels. “Now breath deeply” said the Doctor. After ten or a dozen inhalations the inhaler was removed and the operation com menced. A clever turn of the wrist and the tooth was out and in ubout ten seconds more the patient opened her eyos and turning to the Doctor said “Is it out? “Yes” said he, “was there any pain ?” “Not oue bit,” was the reply. “Do you feel any af'er effects?” “None whatever.” Five minutes after wards 9be had left the offloe aud Doctor said, “what do you think of it,” you have her word that the operation was painless and you have seen with your own eyes that it far excels either chloroform or ether in that there, is no danger to life and there are no dis agreeable after effects In large city offices Nitrous Oxide gas !s admin istered to an average of 50,000 patients each year with uo fatalities and we felt that the expense ot putting in this out fit was nothing compared to tbe ad ditional facility !t gives us for painless extractions ” Could we doubt the truth of his statement after the operation we had seen. We then passed back through the re ception room to the Labratory, tbe third of their suite of rooms "Here is where we do all of oar crown and bridge work,’’ said he, and 1 was invited to a corner stand on which was an arrey of plaster models and several bridges in various stages of completion. “The people are only just awaking to the value of this class of work, said the Doctor, '‘but the lime is coming when everyone will see the advantage of crowning broken teeth, over wholesale extraction. Willi this method give us but 3 or 4 sound teeth or roots in the mouth and we supply a full bridge denture that cannot be told from tbe natural teeth.” At this point Dr. Berry was called to the operating room and Dr. McLeran pointed out to me the interesting features of the last department, that of plate work. Here we fouud all the latest appliances for taking impressions of the mouth, for setting up the teeth, and articulating them ns in the natural jaw. And I was again euprised liy the amount of work iu the process of com pletion. “Yes” said Dr. McLeran this is one of our busiest department, we have sucessfully placed over 15 cases in the last G weeks and have now iui presaions for G uncompleted cases." Thus ended our visit aud it is our opinion that few will be disappointed who call on these practitioners for any service in the line of Dental Surgeory. Resolutions. O’Neill, Neb., Dec 4, 1901 —Whereas it has pleaged Almighty God to call our beloved Brother Clarence Selah “to that home from which no traveler returns", and. Whereas, in the order, he wag ever a faithful fiiend stead-fast in advocacy of its principles. We shall miss him; yet, will ever remember his kindly advice and sturdy character, and, Whereas, during his long connection with Odd Fellowship, he served the Order from the lowest office with entire and disinterested devotion, no servioa was too low, no duty too arduous for him to perform. He was willing to give his time, his thought, his care, his labor, and all that he was and all that he had, “to spend and be spent.’Tf only he might advance the interests of the Order And being among those who loved and served the most, he rightly and justly became one who was honored the most. The highest offices within the gift of the lodge were entrusted to him, and he performed their duty with never-failing efficiency, and honor to himself. In every office, in every capacity, in every relation he bore to the lodge, he came up to full measure of his dutyv and that because to him its labor was a labor of love. His cjie,crful presence has been remov ed, his familiar and potent voice is no longer heard in the lodge-room,and there is a vacant chair in our lodge, which touches all of us as a family bereave ment we look around and miss his | Ffuincrs I-J Holiday offerings; I Ladies’ coats in long and A. pair of the best pants made, as TH?Wfl6|jfJeTii|C rr^y short styles, quality equal illustrated in this picture, all wool ISDRAWN AV to $8 to $20 garments sold and made to wear a third longer EKTIRElYsrUA DnLLutiFS elsewhere, selling at from than any other kind-- — USED as traces * 3.50 to 15 1.50 2.oo ■, Handsome an .1 durable 2.50 3.00 i ladies’ capes in many vaii- “ ties from 3.50 to 28 Collaretts in variety of furs and colors at I* 2.50 to 10 BLANKETS—Full width cotton blankets, 75c; the n \ very best wool quality, $5.
