Taft has more success in securing
delegates from the national committee
than he had when he appealed to the
people through the primary.
With a $25,000 hotel under construe,
tton and about a dozen residences,
costing from $1,000 to $5,000 now being
erected, residents of the city can be
pardoned for showing a little pride
when they say that O’Neill Is enjoy
ing a good healthy growth.
While the national committee has
been giving us some hard jolts in the
contest cases at Chicago the past ten
days we still believe that Roosevelt
will be the nominee of the republican
national convention. And if lie is the
democrats will give up all hopes of
electing their candidate.
Roosevelt carried California by
77,000 at the primary election and
won all the delegates to the national
convention from the state. The Taft
supporters contested the seats of the
two delegates from one congressional
district and they were promptly seat
ed by the steam-rolling national com
mittee. What is the use of a primary
election If the wishes of the people are
uullifled by-the actions of a few dis
credited machine politicians?
(Jol. Roosevelt won one delegate
before the republican national com
mittee last Tuesday. The delegate
conceded to Roosevelt was from the
1 ninth Kentucky district. If Roose
velt was entitled to one, and his dele
gates must have had a prepondence of
evidence In their favor, he should be
entitled to the two delegates from that
district. But the gudlng hands at
the leVer of the steam roller thought
they could satisfy the people by giving
1 Roosevelt one and taking the other
for their favorite candidate and ’twas
done. Queer bow some people regard
ppllticsand the things they will do to
gain a desired end.

Senator Morehead, democratic can
didate for governor, Hays that he is a
j thorough progressive. A careful read
ing of the journal of the last senate
will disclose tt e fact, however, that
If he was at that time Imbued with
ainy progressive tendencies he kept
them carefully concealed from his
democratic coworkers, four-tifths of
whom were conservatives with a cap
ital 0. Senator Morehead liked to be
with the majority and was not re
oognized as one of the leaders in that
; session,being content to sit back andgo
with the tide where there was the least
[ mlstenanoe, while others like Senators
Ollls and Sklles, democrats, and Hoag
land and Brown, republicans, led the

last session. Oh, yes, Senator More
< head Is a progressive new that he

eleot to the governors ofllce Chester
Aldrich who has tilled the position so
acceptably and ably the past two
years. He has been the governor and
has fought for the principles that he
believed were right and In the inter

The Nebraska Press Association
held their annual meeting at
Lincoln last week. The meeting
was one of the best ever held by the
l association and thoroughly enjoyed by
; all present. The banquet was a swell
affair but was not very well enjoyed
by the editors present who had been
j advisedby the chairman of the Lincoln
t entertainment committee a month be
! fore band to prepare speeches for the
ocalssion. The speeches were prepared
and the boys were present in their
|"t^sttitb and tucker”to deliver them,
I boi the speeches were not delivered,
b&ll&e hey were not on the program.
mi* of the opinion that that part
o/^Ke affair would have been better
enjoyed if the members who were to
deliver speeches had been notified
that that part of it was only a hoax.

The editor returned from a visit, to
Lincoln and Omaha l:tst Sunday after
noon. Crops down nnar Lincoln are
badly in need of rai a und In some
parts of Saunders coointy farmers are
plowing up their small grain fields
and planting corn. P natures are badly
burned there and the farmers are
short of feed for the ir stock. This is
also true of parts of Douglas county.
The finest crops we. seen along the
roae were between O’Neill and Nor
folk, where the cro pa give evidence of
having received plenty of moisture.
Mr. and Mrs. J. F. O’Donnell will

where they will join a party of friends
and .accompany- them to Baltimore
where they will witness the scenes In
cident to the d emocratio national con
vention. They will make an extensive
sightseeing tourol the east before
their return and will probably be
absent a month or more. If Jims
favorite candidate suoceeds in landing
the nomination he will probably re
turn a more entbus iastio adherent of
democratic principii :s than ever.
Garret Janzlng, one of the most
prosperous farmers residing north of
this city, was unitet 1 in marriage at
Omaha, Nebr., on T uesday morning,
Jun« 4,to Miss Mary, Schonle of Afton,
Iowa. The ceremonj ' was performed
at St, John’s cburcta by Rev. Father
«
Bronkey. They returned to O’Neill
Tuesday evening and are now com
fortable located in the palatial resi
dence of the groom on his farm north
of this city. The Frontier tenders
hearty congratulations to Mr. and
Mrs. Janzlng and wish them many
years of happiness and prosperity.
E. H. Whelan and Mike Horiskey
returned from their lishlng trip to
Wood Lake this morning. They boys
returned with a good catch of fish and
say they had splendid luck after the
other boys left. Mr. Whelan succeeded
in landing a five pound bass that meas
ured nineteen and a half inches from
tip to tip. All those who have seen
the beauty, where it has been ex
hibition in Phalin’s barber shop all
day, pronounce it to be the finest
bass they have ever seen. The sight
of this fish has inspired nearly every
lover of the rod and reel in the city
with a desire to make a trip to Wood
Lake and try and take the laurels
from Whelan.
E. H Whelen, Frank Fhalln, F. u.
Kelly, Mike Horlskey, Dr. P. J. Flvnn,
and Henry Grady went up to Wood
Lake last Saturday evening to spend
a few days in quest pf black bass In
the lakes south of that village. They
all returned home Wednesday morn
ing, except Whelen and Horlskey,
who decided to remain a few days
longer and try to convince a few more
of the finny tribe to accept their bait.
Those that returned say that while
they had good fishing they did not
succeed In landing many fish as the
weather was too cold and wet. The
boys say however, that they are going
to try it again when the weather gets
warmer. We would suggest that be
fore the boys go again that they would
learn the name of the particular brand
of “bait” that is used by James
Davidson on his fishing excursions
and they would probably have better
luck, for it is admitted, whether on
account of the brand of bait used or
his adeptness with a rod and reel,
that Jim Davidson is the most suc
cessful fisherman In the city.
County Assessor Skidmore, County
Clerk McNichols and the entire coun
ty board are in session this week as
members of the board of equalization
and will be in session all week and
probably longer. The precinot asses
sessors have made their returns to the
county assessor and the County As
sesor makes that return to the county
board and they equalize the values if
deemed necessary. The returns made
by the precinot assessors this year
show au increased valuation in the
real estate of Holt county of $1,130,
920 over the valuation of last year.
The total valuation of the real estate
of the county this year is $3,390,505.
Of the different townships in the
oounty Stuart precinct shows the
largest lnorease in the valuation. The
increase in that township being in
round numbers $201,000 more than the
valuation of one year ago. The valu
ation has been increased in every
township in the county but the in
crease in the above was the greatest.
The board will have a strenuous time
and will have to perform many hours
of hard labor to properly equalize the
assessments made by the precinct as
sessors in the various precincts of the
county.

Even nature itself cannot make two hills

just happen. It took the brains and genius of Stickney together with years,

absolute success. i
