Several school boys have been sen
tenced to jail for ninety days, in
Omaha, for participation in the recent
lynching and riot. If the affair merely
was the prank of school children it
would seem a matter for the juvenile
and probation officers, but if General
Wood wasn’t seeing things when he
declared it an organized revolution of

ment of a few leaders of these organ
izations might have a good moral
effect.

culty in bagging the limit. The bag

making this terristory, among the kill
being one canvesback, killed by O’Don
nell. Enright tried to pass off a couple
of fish ducks that fell before his trusty
piece as canvasbacks and to trade
them to the other boys for mallards,
but was unsuccessful and presented
them to Jack Thomas on his return.
A civil service examination is to be
held soon at Niobrara to select a new
postmaster for Spencer. Several of
these examinations recently were held
in western Nebraska in an endeavor to
select a postmaster for Scotts Bluff.
More than one examination was nec
essary because none of the democratic
candidates was able to pass the re
quired educational tests, and the same
thing occurred when the administra
tion was trying to select a postmaster
for Valentine. As a consequence Earl
Gaddis, private secretary to Senator
Hitchcock, was move I to write a
burning letter to the democratic lead
ers of those districts begging them if
possible to find a democratic candidate
who could pass the test. The demo
cratic central committee of Boyd
county should take notice and start the
boys to night school.
