The result of the election in Cass county is not such that the republican who had hoped to see Old Cass brought oack where by rights she ought to be feel hopeful for the future. is true that in some respects bush whacking politics has been rebuke! and for that all good men irrespective of politics should feel glad. But the fact stands out boldly the notwithstand ing Cass pounty is republican by a good majority, republicans insist in splitting ineir ticxet, while democrats just as strongly insist in putting it in straight. a we nave no sensure to make upon s. republicans who believe that their in terests and the interests of the party ( whose principles they believesin can bast be subserved by such action. It is their business and not ours. But there is lots of chance between now and an other election to think thfse things over and learn a lesson from the result in Cass county. V Bllhorn Can't Come.

Two parties of engineers employed by theNorthern Pucific Railway Co., and three crews connected with the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound Railway company are racing for the first location of a line into the timber belt on the north fork of the Clearwater river in northern Idaho. The Hill peo ple have located a line on both sides of the river from Ahsahka to Dent, 15 miles, and is extending it up the stream on the north bank. The Milwaukee engineers have located on north bank between the points named and are now working on the south fork. Eastern ond western lumber companies with extensive holdings along the river are obliged to remove the timber within a specified time and the railroads are necessary to handle le products. ,v Mrs. John Brady and her daughter returned home Wednesday from Norburne, Mo., where they were vis iting relatives. Nebraska Beet Sugar. John Petrie, of the live Ntoek de partment of the Burlington, who has just returned from a long trip to the west and northwest, says that there is nothing in all the west like the beet sugar business in northeasrern Colo rado and the North Platte valley in western Nebraska. - The beet crop has been heavy, and the harvest is now on. The crop in the North Platte valley was unusually heavy, and the prospects are for an increased acreage next year. Mr. Petrie says: "There are now three sugar fac tories taking the product of that part of the beet erowimr territory. Thev are located in Brush, Sterling and Fort Morgan. At Fort Moriran and Brush the factories are slicing about !KK) tons of beets each per day, while the fac tory at Sterling getting iects'fwin both the Union Pacific and the Bur lington, has a greater supply. The beets are the finest in quality and the raisers are getting a good price for them. Sugar beet trains are now be ing pulled out of the North Platte val ley to those factories, and the rather long Haul is making considerable bus iness for the railroad. Next season the new factory nt ScottsBluff will be in operation and the haul will be reduced, but it is probable that the tonnitge will more than make up to the railroad the loss in mileage. There is no question about the future of the North Platte valley. You get the combination of an irrigated country raising sugar beets and a sugar fac tory in that territory and the way quick money comes in makes some other lines of industry look sick. At Sterling, Fort Morgan and Brush about ten thousand head of cattle will be fed and enough sheep to bring the live stock total far above $l(K),0(K). The stock is fed upon the refuse syrup the pulp and prairie hay ond the com bination makes fat cattle in a short time. ''It would Im hard to find the range country in a better condition than now. The ranee is excellent, the sea son liavinir been iust riir.it: the live stock on the range is doing well. You have heard that most of the live stock has been taken from the ramie bv the high prices. This is not true. The rangenien have sold what surplus they rind and nave kept the stock that will grow into money. The railroads have handled a heavy stock tonnage but there is p'enty left up there for itfxt ycar.'M . : - i "Stockmen in Burlington territory liave done well. Cattle men have ha good feed and have sold at liieh nriees r r - Sheep men have'done the same. There doesn t anitear to be a thimr to kick about in the west and the nnrthwi-Nt The country is prosperous and traffic conditions are all that we could ask for." Want Column i i .1 i WANTED.
