FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1901. W'nE 'band "concerts are a boon t VI music famished, sweltering hu manity. liesides the aesthetical en joyment f the trrown people, the small boy has bushels of fun playing tag amon? the eager listeners. 'iie civilized powers invaded China VI with the purest and noblest pur poses imaginable. They want to pro tect the benighted heathen against themselves. Their idea is to intro duce law and order, together with the true theology, into a nation of 400, 000.000 people with a civilization near ly lifty centuries old, and to charge them nothing for it except their free dom, their religion, their institutions. their self-respect and most of their portable properly. Naturally, in the prosecution of an enterprise sobene- ticient, it has been necessary to kill a few evil-minded pagans and to reduce the vain pride of others by trampling them and their families in the dusto humiliation. uu distinguished fellow townsman Byron Clark is having political distinction showered upon him quite plentifully of late, having leen "men tioned"asan available candidate for congress, for supreme judge, and for appointment to the federal bench But there is only one office that Byron really cares for, and that is his law office. (Tio long as the political complexion of the senate remains as it now it will be a perfectly safe propo sition for the high protectionists to have reciprocity dangled before the eyes of the people. Commissioner Kas son was so disgusted with the trans parent fraud in the reciprocity game that he threw up his job in disgust Reciprocity has proven to be a barren makeshift, and this is why Congress man Babcock and a number of repub lican leaders and newspapers are push ing tariff reform to the front. ffHE lack of rain all over the western Vl countr3 and right in the great corn belt, has affected business to some extent. For fear that the entire sea son will be dry, and the corn crop be almost a total failure, improvements of many kinds have been postponed Men are not investing their money only those who are speculating on grain. ff t will repay Americans to contem II country as bearing upon their own and their children's safety and liberty We are on dangerous ground in a most dangerous frame of mental thought We are abandoning a creed that pre served our own rights and respected the rights of others. The final aban donment of this creed means more o calamity to us than even to those weaker than us whom we may con quer, despoil and forcibly govern. This is due to the fact that we are destroy ing the foundation of the fabric o free government, and that it is our selves who will be crushed by the col lapse of the splendid structure. 7"rnK Missouri river commission in its annual report complains that lack of funds has hampered the work of making the river navigable. Con gress was kind, however, in taking the worry for this oversight off the mind of the commissioners for the future but the members would probably hav been perfectly willing to continue their lamentations if the pay-roll had not been stopped. T irm iiatevek may be the desires o the shipping and ship-building syndicate backing the ship subsidy scheme, the needs of American ship building in that connection are not apparent. This industry is increasing so rapidly even under our present an tiquated shipping laws that the force of the ship subsidy argument is much diminished. jCrom present indications the state Jl fair will be held at Lincoln for all time to come. The state board of public lands and buildings has pur chased the old fair grounds as a per manent site for the state fair, paying 17,000 therefor. The state will spend $18,000 more on improvements. As long as Nebraska is to have a state fair no doubt the purchase of a per manent site is a good thing, and Lin coln is as good a location for the fair as any place. Everything points to a successful fair this year. -TThe Bee says: Many of the leading populist papers in Nebraska are outspoken in the opinion that fusion has outlived its usefulness. As fusion never accomplished any other Dur- pose than to furnish offices to a few politicians, this must be taken as a confession that fusion cannot win again. The Nebraska voter has cer tainly learned that the reform ball Is not under the fusion shell, and will re' fuse to bite on the game again. 7lfflALT Mason very' truthfully re fr marks: The Commoner has a very ancient and sickly appearance, The paper is a bleached yellow in color, leaving the impression that it is mellowed by age ; the type used is old-fashioned, reminding you of the time when public was spelled "pub lick," and when an s looked like an f. The ink is evidently cheap, and it prints gray instead of black. The paper would be much more entertain ing if it had a modem appearance. Ht the meeting of the republican committee in Weeping Water last Saturday among those present were Henry Boeck and J. I. Unruh, of Plattsmouth, which naturally sug gests the inquiry, who will the repub licans nominate for coroner litis fall? 'TT'Hb'. gigantic si eel trust has a I a rill" V subsidy-1 if forty per cent, on its products. This enables il to sell American-made goods abroad cheaper than at home. The extortion is open ly defended and boasted of as protec tion to American labor, but in reality it taxes American labor to create div idends on watered stock. SiNCK the swimming fever has struck town a distinction has ap parently lieen made between swim ming and bathing. If you take your plunge where clothes are necessary you are bathing, hut if you go in clad only in nature's garments you are in swimming. I'eople can not le too particular in this matter. MynaLrd Special Correspondence. Weather cooler, since the rain of Saturday night. Corn is greatly ben efitted both by cooler weather and rain, and is now said to stand a show of making a good half crop. This means about twenty bushels per acre That was a good yield of wheat for J. II. Vallery thirty-one bushels per acre. Jake Tuylor threshed spring wheat, yielding eighteen bushels per acre. This is called a good turnout. The hum of the thresher is heard in the land. Vallery & Crabtree, Propst & Co. and Ben Horning & Co. are do- the threshing. All have good outfits, and are said to be doing good work. John Bergman wild 4,000 bushels of corn on last Monday at 50c. Who said prosperity had a broken limb? But Mark withheld the rain, and gave us a shower of chintz bugs instead. W. T. Richardson lost another valu able horse a few days ago the second in a few weeks. Several hired men herea!outs have taken enforced vacations lately caused by the withholding of rain. Joe Adams, in addition to building a new bain, is erecting a commodious addition to his dwelling. This will give him one of the finest residence properties in this vicinity. A covered vehicle stopped in town last evening long enough to learn that its occupants w ere not wanted. Soiled doves constituted the cargo. Schlotman, the blacksmith, is kept busy setting wagon tires. esides other work in his line. Phil Ook is stacking grain for the Wenke lmys. Phil is a great man on the stack. George Wenke was a Mynard visitor on last Sunday evening, but why men tion it. George is a visitor to Mynard very frequently of late. Gillespie had a car of hgs on the South Omaha market on Tuesday. lie struck a bad market. Jamaica. Magpie Grove Special Correspondence. Wm. Jamison shipped fat hogs to South Omaha on Monday. A surprise dance was given at Henry Englekemeier's last Thursday night, and all enjoyed a good time. John Urish, Adam Schafer and Ed Gansemer returned home from Okla homa last Friday. Chas. Boedeker received a new rub ber tired buggy last week. What w ill come next? The people of this locality thank the Lord for the nice shower of rain given them last Saturday night, which they so badly needed. Union From the Ledger. ihe threshing machines in this neighborhood have been humming lively tunes the past week, and the farmers have found it no easy matter to secure sufficient help to keep pace with the machines. L. A. Tyson, the genial druggist of Elmwood, made us a brief visit Thurs day. Mr. Tyson has his lines out to secure the republican nomination for county clerk, and expressed himself as well pleased with his prospects polit ically. People in this village watched the lightning and listened to the thunder last Tuesday night with expectations of having a -downpour of rain, but only a few drops reached here. East of town there was a heavy rain for a short time, but it was confined to a small territory and not sufficient to do a great amount of good to the crops. nenry F. Taylor informs us that some people have a wrong understand ing regarding the road controversy that has been on for some time, a few having the idea that he is fighting against the opening of any road from the bottoms Into town. He says the whole trouble is in regard to the place for opening the road, and not as to whether there shall le any road es tablished. The editor of this paper has had many voluntary offers of support for the republican nomination for county clerk, and until recently we had some serious intention of being nominated and elected, but we have concluded that we cannot afford to abandon the work of running a good newspaper in one of the liost towns in the Ijest county in Nebraska, to devote time and expense to secure a jiomination and election, and we make this state ment that the other ixtya may know that we are not in t he hunt. Nehawka From the Register. On account of the heat these days some of the force employed are work ing half time at the rock quarry. L. E. Stone sliipjied one car of hogs Monday and two cats Tuesday. Lester is getting to I quite a hog buyer.' Henry iiucliolz's wheat went thirty seven bushels to the acre, but the ban ner yield so far as we have heard is Jim Easter's. His wheat went thirty eight and one-half bushels per acre. Chris Ross finished up- threshing thirteen hundred bushels of wheat and seventeen hundred bushels of oats last Saturday afternoon. He surely can pull through if he doesn't get any corn. A game of base ball between the businessmen of Union and Nehiwka is scheduled to take place some time in the near future. Union had letter come prepared as we have some mean ball players in our set. Albert Alsford bought the John Mc Bride property last week, paying-f 1,100 for the same. We are sorry to lose the McBrides, who will probably want to move back about January 1, but we are glad to hear that Albert's mother will occupy the premises. Grandpa West returned from Ge neva, Neb., Sunday evening. He re ports the drouth a little worse there than here, and says if no rain falls this weel- farmers will put their self binders in the fields and cut and bind their corn tor feed. He says they are not so badly off as they might be if they were depending on a corn crop, as they had a great amount of winter wheat in, which made a very heavy crop, running from twenty to forty bushels per acre. Weeping Water From the Republican. John Hess, of Wabash, was a caller Saturday. While in town he left with our carpenters plans for a new house he will erect there, 24x2G. August Gorder, of Plattsmouth, vis ited his brother Fred and familvTues day night. Mr. and Mrs. Louis Hoback, living six miles southeast, were called upon to mourn the loss of their six months old babe last Wednesday. The re mains were interred in the cemetery at Avoea, Friday. Win. Kraft, living near Louisville while helping Stohluian Bros, thresh last Saturday, got his thumb caught in a cog wheel and smashed. He came here and Dr. Ilungate amputated that member just back of the second joint Last Friday, on complaint of her father. .Miss Luetic Shepherd was taken to Plattsmouth, in custody of Constable Badgley, and a charge of incorrigibility entered against her, A hearing was had before Judge I wug- lass. Because of a change in the law it was found that this charge was not sufficient to send her to the reform school, and Mr. Shepherd not caring to enter a complaint of a more serious nature, let the matter drop and they returned home. Since then Miss Shep herd has found a home with Mrs. Van dekar, and that estimable lady will undertake the task of reforming the girl. Thiscanbe done with the girl's help, and it is to be hoped that in the future she will be tine to her own best Interests. Elmwood From the Leader-Echo. Will Deles is suffering from a severe cold, and is so hoarse he can barely speak above a whisper. S. I). Eells is circulating a petition for the post office at the expiration of Postmaster Alton's term of office, and the petition is being liberally signed. The citizens of Elmwood now have something to take up part of their time. Charles Rivett has announced himself as a candidate for assessor on the republican ticket. John Hart will also ask for the nomination again, and the struggle is on. Mrs. J. Bischoff, of Alvo, called on Wednesday in company with her niece who is here from Omaha spending va cation. She said the corn about Alvo looked better than here, as they had had more rain. Dan Fcntlman and Wm. Lefler were at Omaha one day last week with a car of cattle, and struck a wild mar ket. Out of 113 cars of cattle sold they were the only ones that received more than they paid for the stock, and they only received $1.80 each more than they paid. Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Ferguson re turned Thursday evening of last week from a delightful trip and visit of two and a half -months duration in the east. They enjoyed splendid visits with relatives with relatives and old friends in Illinois, New York, Penn sylvania, Massachusetts, New Hamp shire and Ohio. They spent nearly a week in Boston, and several days at the Buffalo exposition. Mr. Ferguson I says the exposition did not come up to I the Trans-Mississippi, with the excep tion of the electrical display, which was away ahead of anything they ever saw. Mr. Ferguson said plenty of rain had fallen back there up until the time they left. Eagle From the Beacon. Charlej Venner suffered a severe sun stroke Monday, and it was feared for several hours that he would not recover. Fred Neu and Charley Gard ner also had light attacks. T. N. Bobbit was in Eagle Tuesday. He informed us that his son ('ha lies, who is holding a good position lor Uncle Sam as mail clerk, was home for a few days, and that he said the corn in this locality looked letter than any place he had been, and he travels over considerable territory. R. B. Morgan has sold his store in Alvo io George Frohlich, a hustling young man of Alvo. We are glad to note that Mr. Morgan will move back to Eagle. Some of the leading republicans of the state are urging Byron Clark of Plattsmouth to be a candidate for su preme judge. We earnest ly hope that he will be a candidate. lie stands high at the bar throughout the wvst. A man of rare good judgment, he would certainly bring a great deal of prestige to our supreme court. His election is sure if nominated. Louisville From t he Courier. i 'ist Lt'linhoir came to town the other day for a vacation, after an all surnmei siege at farming. He was arrayed in a new suit of clothes and said he had joined the-salvation army and was now ltioking for a wife. Jacob Keiser came in Friday and reported that a panther or some other wild animai has been tearing the hark from trees west of town. One large tree up the liottoiii was gnawed and the bark torn into shreds. Last Tuesday afternoon Galie Frib ble fell from a moving Hat car a the Cedar Creek stone quarry where he was engaged in loading rock, and in the fall had the misfortune to break two ribs and bruising him badly about the chest. He fell on the track, and had it not been for the quick move ment of a fellow laboie- who pulled him from underneath the moving car he would have lieen killed. The artesian well at Fort Crook should mean much to the future of the pretty barracks in Sarpy county. It largely increases the accommoda tions and utility of the fort, and the government is sure to enlarge its use of the groundf. The well is proving to be one of the best in the country. Greenwood From the News. W. J. Tinkham lost the end of his first finger on the right hand Monday hist, the work being done by the band cutter on Wes Barr's threshing ma chine. The lmy didn't seem to find enough bands to eiit. D. K. Barr was overcome with heal Thursday while unloading liimlier. and was taken to his home, where he was properly taken care of and it is thought will recover. J. P. Falter, of Plattsmouth. Tur ner Zink, or Wabash, and J. W. Coy. or Weeping Water, county commis sioners, were in Greenwood Tuesday anu vteoncsaay, looking arter county business. A. L. Etheredge, who has just re turned from the east part or Cass county, says the corn there is much further advanced than in the west part of the county, and is not. suffer ing from the hot weather as the corn is here, the silk and tassels being green and vigorous, showing a pros pect for a two-thirds crop ir they have rain soon .

A merry-go-round outfit arrived In town on Wednesday, and the owners concluded to locate here for a short time.
