A trial will satisfy you that that is the place to stop. The second mmrterlv conference of the M. E. church will occur on Feb. 9, 1890. Presiding Elder T. U, Webster will be present C. R Wells has fitted his store room up in nice shape, ith covenient bins and other fixtures which enables him to take care of his customers in short order. For comfort and good living go to the Northwestern hotel when in Harri son. Everything is done tliat can be to make it pleasant for those who stop there. The popularity of the Northwestern hotel has been gained by the pains taken to please guests of the house. People like to go where they are well taken care of. A few days ago Andrew Christian, who lives in the edge of Wyoming, was lifting a log when his foot slipped and a piece ' of wood went nearly through his foot. No bones were injured, but he will be laid up for some time. The farmers are all talking of put ting out quite a quantity of sugar beet seed, if they can get the seed. It would be a good plan for some of our mer chants to see if they can get a supply of the best seed so that the farmers can ob tain what they need. The contest on Tuesday evening at the M. E. Church for the Demorest gold prize medal was well attended and a great interest shown. The gold medal was won by Miss Emma Weir. This closes the work of the first class, Sid it is probable that a new class will be organized and the contests continued. The school meeting announced in the last issue for the 27th inst was for school district No. 7 instead of No, 9 as stated. By an oversight the figure 9 was put in when it should have been a 7. The meeting will be at the school house in Harrison at two p. m. on Jan. 27th. and 'it is urged that all interested be present. We bear it remarked that there is a dearth of wheat in Sioux county for seeding purposes, owing to the small acreage which was raised last year, it will be necessary for organized action in this matter. The acreage of grain should not be permitted to sutfer for the want of wed for the farmer to tow. The railroad has a special rate on grain to be used for seed and if it could be as certained how much mora would be needed than there is in the county a uni ted effort would do much ' toward secur ing the needed grain. It is getting to be the time of year when this matter should bt looked after. Tell yrtur friends in tiie east to come to 6iotlx county. There is no danger of a dry season in 190. You can urge tiiat point for a plenty of rain is assured. ETswbet-e jn this issue appears call by the county for bids for furnish ing coal to the county for the ensuing year. The new officials propose to do filing? fiHit. Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Verity wet corned a bran new boy to their home on last Saturday. That is the eaus of tlie broad smile which Mr. Verity wears of late. A good many of our citizens are temporary grass widowers, their fani ilies being in the east visiting. It would 1 a good plan to organize grans widowers' club. State Auditor Benton reported to the county clerk that during the year of 1889 tliera were 170 pieces of land proved up on in Sioux county. This, with the increase in personal property and railroad in the county will make quite an addition to the taxable prop erty to be listed next spring. County Clerk Lindeman and ex Treasurer Lockwood put in a good deal of liard work during the past week getting the records of the clerks office relative to the doings of the treasure in sh.ie. Everything in the treasure's office has lieen checked up so that it is known in just what shape the finan ces are in. The commisHioners paused an or der at llieir session last week requiring that all justices of the tieace in the county deliver their dockets to tl county clerk, prior to the next meet ing of the county board. Notice of tlie meeting will appear in TlfE Journal so that the justices can be thus informed of the date at which the dockets will be wanted. Some time ago the hearing in the case of Brookmire vs. Rosa &. Thompson was had before J. W. Hunter, who was then county judge, and a judgment ren dered in favor of the plaintiff. The at torney for Brookmire states to us that the time for taking an appeal has ex pired and therefore the case has termi nated in favor of his client. We are in formed tliat P, E. Baifd, of Chadron. at torney for Rosa & Thompson, did not in tend to appeal the case, but is preparing to take it to the -district court on error. Owiag to. tho fact flat momt I4 tlie village funds were used up for officers saleries, the towri is now short of water. A subscription was circula ted some time ago and enough contribu ted to complete the large cistern near the well, and enough was pledged to do the work, but for some reason no work has ever been done on it. As it is something will have to be done or water will have to be btought from some other place. It wa understood when the contract was let for running the pump that a bond was to be given for the performance of the work but the supply of water is about exhausted. Some action should be taken to prevent such it state of affairs. While the snow on the ground is a good thing for the farmers it is rather bad for the cattle men who have let their cattle range for a living without providing feed or shelter. It is said that many of the cattle are already getting quite poor and if the snow re mains much longer it will cause se rious loss to the cattle men. As the locality is settling up quite rapidly, the days of ranching are past and this also goes much against the large cattle ranches. The opening of farms makes it necessary for the cattle to lie herded during the entire year and it is plainly evidenced that it is but a ques tion of a very short time when the range cattle will all be removed from this part of the country. The Elkhorn is piling up ties along the "Y" at this place. We have not learned the object but it is likely they are preparing to extend their line west in the early spring and are getting their supplies of material as near the place where they will use it as they can. At all events the prospects are that this line will be made an important one before the close of the present year. It is a case of necesity for the compa ny to increase its buisness in some way for the travel on the line does not pay and rail roads do not, as a rule, op erate their lines for fun. - If a connect ing link is put in from this line to the U. P. it will give a through line to Denver and that will be an excelent thing for this section of tlie country, Dbsolntlon Notice.

Price, a justice of the peace, at Richland, Neb., was confined to his bed last winter with a severe at tack of lumbago; but a thorough appli cation of Chamberlain's Pain Balm ena bled him to get up and go to work. Mr. Price savs: "The remedy cannot be recommended too highly." Let anyone troubled with rheumatism, neuralgia, or lame back give it a trial and they will, be of the same opinion. 50 cent bottles C. H.

The article referred to is Chamberlain's cough remedy. It is a medicine that has won fame and popu larity on it's merits and one that can al ways be depended upon. It is the only known remedy that will prevent croup. It must be tried to be appreciated. It is put up in 50 cent and SI bottles. For sale by C. H. Andrews. The new county officials have got fairly into harness. County Clerk Lin deman has got pretty well fixed in the running of his office. Treasurer Gay hurt has got his duties well in hand and as he cannot be here all the time he has appointed S. H. Jones, of ' the Bank of Harrison, deputy treasurer, so that par ties having buisness with the county treasure can always be able to transact it when at the county seat. The recent ruling of the land coramisioner prohibit ing the county judge from taking testi mony in final proof cases cuts off the buisness of that office so that a man can not afford to put in his time for the amount he would receive, and commis sioners having provided that tho clerk could have a deputy Mr. Lindeman has appointed Judge Barker to that place. That makes it so that the county judge can always be found at , the court house when needed and at the same time gives Mr. Lindeman a careful, painstaking and competent deputy. Su perintendant Southworth is getting the details of his office in shape and will do all in his power to advance the educa tional interests of the county. Sheriff Reidy lias not selected a deputy so far, as he does not see the demand for one. Surveyor Dew is ready to fulfil the duties of his office whenever called on, and Dr. Sliafer wears a solemn look, in keeping Vith the duties of the office of coroner, while County Attorney Walk er is ready at all times to do the du ties devolving upon him as prosecuting attorney for Sioux county. By the amount of buisness transacted during tlie first session of the board of commis sioners it is pretty well demonstrated tliat they propose to accomplish some thing while in session. The prospect are that under the new administration the affairs of the public will be well looked after. The new officers realize that their action in all matters will be 'ilosely watched by both friends and ene mies and as they are pledged to the peo ple to give tliem honest, just and eco nomical government they will put forth Uwir bwt attorU to radara tfatt pledge.
