Mrs. G. W. Hester was summoned,

his death had been almost daily expected
for several months. .
A decision by the Nebraska supreme
court declares that a mortgage given on
a growing crop won't hold after the crop
is gathered. If the farmers of Nebraska
will unanimously proceed to mortgage
their growing crops for all they can get
and refuse to pay, they will have the
fun of seeing some toll harvesting and
corn-gathering by the chattel mortgage

It is understood that the Republicanf?)
County Central Committee held a secret
meetinir in Harrison yesterday. It is
something new in Republican political
tactics (or at least it would be in any
other county except Sioux) to make a
secret call for a committee meeting.
We wonder why the call was not pub
lished in the Herald as it claims to be
the party organ in Sioux county.

Tlie United states extends nearly half
vjay around tlie globe, and when the ev
ening sun is setting on the westernmost
Alaskan island the next morning s sun
njay be an hour high in Maine. It is the
only country in the world except Russia,
of which this can properly be said. The
little islands and petty dependencies of
Great Britain are scattered over the
world and the sun may be said never to
set on the British Empire, but only in a
measly sort of a way. Ex.
Bert Dew, of Jim creek, is something
of a sportsman and while out surveying
the bluffs just above his house last Fri
day he espied a fine buck deer. By care
ful manouvering he succeeded in placing
himself within easy range and also in
dropping the buck by a well directed
ball from ins 4:i Winchester. lhe ani
mal rolled down a slight cliff of rock
and lodired in the upturned roots of ai
old tree. Bert cautiously approached
the spot w here the deer had fallen and
was astonished to hear a noise issuing
from the retrion where the deer lay that
sounded much like that usually made by
a mad cat, and quietly peeping over the
fallen tree he espied a large wild cat.
This he dispatched at first shot and then
found a nest containing two young cats
only a few days old. Bert intends to
tame the "kitties" but we doubt not he
will change his mind.
Tuesday morning Wm. Corcoran rode
to Harrison, being a witness for Mr.
Greger whose hearing for final proof was
held that day, and to let the pony graze
turned it loose just north of town leav
ing the saddle on and removing the bri
dle and tying it to the saddle. After
searching sometime for the pony in the
evening and measuring off the prairie by
foot steps for several miles around Har
rison, lie returned to town and was in
formed that the property he was search
ing for was in Judge Hunter's stable.
He repaired to the stable and proceeded
to resaddle the animal and take it away.
Hunter appeared at this time and asked
for $2. damages as he had had the horse
over 24 hours and was entitled to pay.
Corcoran could not understand how the
pony he had ridden to town the same
morning could have been in Hunter's
bands for 24 hours and told him so, but
still Hunter refused to give up the pony
even after it had been ideotilled by sev
eral of Corcoran's friends who had ac
companied him to town that morning.
A replevin was sworn out by Corcoran
and Sheriff Pfost took possession of the
pony and the next morning Hunter
crawfished and had the pony returned to
its owner. Corcoran and his friends
were delayed over night by this manouv
er of Hunter, besides other inconven
iences. We understand the Judge's ex
cuse is that lie was drunk, but we are
slow to lielieve this for the reason that
were that so, and it ell'ected him alike
each time, he would proljably have han
dled more horses within the few short

District Court Xotes.
It is not necessary to say that those
libel cases brought by Satterlee were
dismissed.
Attorneys Fisher and Sayrs of Chadron
came on Tuesday's train and were in
time to observe the court adjourn.
"I don't see it that way."
M. P. KlNKAID.
Tueiy afternoon's rain wet down
many who were going home from court.
Dore was heard to remark, "Judge
Kinkaid must think that our county
judge don't know a d n thing."
It is conceded by all parties tliat M.
P. Kinkaid is a model judge.
Mrs. Westover came up from Rush
ville with her husband and visited with
friends here. We regret that the lady
experienced such unpleasant weather.
The judge found no use for a jury and
sent tlie jurors home Monday afternoon.
The jurymen were glad to be dismissed
in the afternoon of the same day that
court set. Owing to the very busy sea
son for farmers it was very fortunate.
It may not te necessary, but we rise
to remark that Satterlee dismissed the
libel cases he brought about election
time last fall. This is an admission that
what was said of tlie all round crook at
that time was, and forever is, true.
The matter was well settled in the
Pfost coal case that a county officer who
violates the law and furnishes supplies
to the county can not recover pay there
for. That's what this paper said all the
time.
The attorneys from other towns in
attendance were Mr. Fanning, Crawford;
Messrs Powers, Fisher, Cook, Sayrs and
Bartow, Chadron, and Mr. Westover, of
Rusbville.
Judge Kinkaid instructed the jurors
to look after and prosecute any parties
found cutting timber on school sections.
Satterlee had his way in those libel
cases for a while; but when the time
came for him to meet the accused face
to face in the presence of a fair and
honorable court, lie wilted and asked
tliat his own complaints be dismissed.
W. II. Westover is so deeply interested
in the Welfare of Sioux county that he
iH expressing a fear that George "Walker
and It. T. Conley will present large bills
against tlie county for their services in
the county cases. Don't fret, Westover.
The services of tlie above named gentle
men were gratefully and gratuitously
given for the welfare of the county.
What about that $100 fee which was
illegaly secured for Westover for his
services(?) for Sioux county at last year's
term of district court. Wonder if West
over expects a f 100 this year from the
county for his services in trying to com
pel the county to pay accounts of
othersJKTTieh the county has no right to
PS
A test ease was recently made by Mr.
Walker by appealing, from the commiss
ioners decision in allowing certain ac
counts, to the district court. The ac
counts appealed were; one for $28.05 pre
sented by Judge Hunter as his fees in
the civil case of Columbia vs: Scofield,
and several allowed to Sheriff Pfost
amounting in all to $260.80. A strenu
ous effort was made by the attorneys
for the defence, E. D. Satterlee, W. H.
Westover and Judge Cook, to have the
cases continued, dismissed or thrown
out of court, and in every other way
known to the craft, but were finally
compelled to come to a trial of
the cases before Judge Kinkaid.
Judge Hunter crawfished on his part
of the program and admitted that he
had no right to present the account to
the commissioners for payment just
what we have been telling him all along.
The others were tried and out of the
whole $289.45 only $1.00 was allowed
and that was to the sheriff for inspect
ing Hovey's horses.
The following is a record of the eases
