80 YEARS AGO
November 17, 1887
Our sister town of Stuart
was last week the recipient of
a visit from the fiery ele
ments, and between $20,000
and $25,000 worth of property
was destroyed. We give below
the account of the same from
the Ledger of last week which
was delayed in publication un
til Saturday:
"Stuart on Friday copad
with a visit from the dread
fire fiend, and this morning
—Saturday—nothing save a
blackened mass of smolder
ing. smoky ruins mdrk the
spot where but yesterday,
good, substantial buildings,
occupied by business men
and families, gave assurance
of the property and of their
proprietors and occupants.
It is a sad picture of dreari
ness and desolation."
Must O’Neill have another
fire before we awake out of
our lethargy and organize for
some fire protection? Let us
take a fresh warning from the
fate of Stuart.

Can Well Be
Thankful
Among many things for which
NcBraskans may be thankful
is this State’s excellent liquor
control statutes.
'These laws are clear, enforce
able, ami have the hacking of
public sentiment.
They provide that violating
taverns may lose their license.
That’s why, today, tavern
keepers generally are striving
to operate in the public interest
—to keep their places clean,
wholesome and decent —~ te
eliminate sales to excessive
drinkers ami minors.
You, as a citizen, have a duty
in still further improving the
State’s b?cr nt.ul ’ig condi

strict enforcement of the lav
. . . to discourage excessive
