On last Saturday evening, the school loarl Iveltl a meeting and selected a teacher. A nurriber of npplK'fiinn had been made and the result wast the select ion of Miss Eva Conner. The lady letted has the reputation of being- a jrood teacher and will doubtluss give satisfact ory wrvice. The contract will be for three mouths, and school will lx-in on August 4th, that being the first M onday in the month. There will lie little i chance for vacation as there is to le ten months school during the school year. The r pcrt of the village treasurer j has not yet been published. It is rumor- 10 1 en that warrants were issued last year, 10 I far in excess nf the limit MvoH W law f the village hoard will comply with the law and publish the financial stand ing of the village and' would give an opportunity to know the condition of affairs. The continued neglect to comply with the law makes it appear as if matters were in such a condition that they dare not let tile public know the true state of affairs, The Itorsey organs are making capit al out of the fact of Judge Kinkaid de dining to be a candidate for congress, and some of them go so far as to assert that Kinkaid has said that Dorsey is the best man in the district for representa tive. That statement is absolutely false. Judge Kinkaid never said it, and such statements, misrepresenting leading men of the district, will not add strengtli to the chairman of the housa committee on bnnking and currency. Some Dorsey or gans pretend to believe that he will be nominated by acclamation but thnre is not one of them who would not give a good deal to lie certain of such a thing. Those who are booming him quote what the democratic papers say in favor of his nomination. Of course the democrats want Itim nominated. Democrats work for democratic suocesi and tli.it is wlial they look for if the republicans nominate orsey for u fourth term. We are informed that L. Gerliu-h has deen appointed local organizer foi the farmers alliance and it is prohabh llmt a number of sulordinate alliances will de establish! in the county in tht near future. .

In others they are put ting independent tickets in the field and in other Ls-ilities tlicy are waiting to see if the old parties put up the right kind of men and if they do not. an alliance man will likely be put up. The indications are that the aspirant for office who is not in sympathy with the fanners will have a rocky road to travel. !n conversation with some of our farmers the question of listing or plant. niff corn came up tor discussion. Ihe general opinion appeared to lie that tlie liest results were to be obtained by list ing. The only trouble with that method is thecultivation of the corn when it is small. In the eastern part of the slate w here a large proportion of the corn is listed they have a cultivator especially gotten up for that work, and since those cultivators have been in use better re sults have been derived than ever. There appears to be every reason for listed com doing well in Sioux county and before another crop is planted it is probable tluit someone will introduce those culti vators. We should ltke to have all the information we can from those who have experimented with listed and planted corn in this county so that we muy en able the farmers to get the best results from their labors. The board of county commissioners adjourned on last Friday. As soon as the work as a board of equalization was completed Commissioner Weir went home aud did not attend any of the time during the session. A number of points can be noted by perusal of the proceed ings of the board,, which appears on the third page of this issue. One of the most important points to the taxpayers is that the new board pro pose to keep within the law. Another is that no bills created prior to ceceiuber 1, MjU, will be allowed lor payment out of tlie lsW) funds. Another point is that every bill is examined and if it is uot as it should be it is ordered corrected on re jected, and still juiuther fact is very no- ticable, and that is that they know ueith then they can be delivered to those to whom they belong. The course taken by Commissioners Grove and Orcun in regard to the bills presented will meet Uw hearty approval of every honest man in Sioux uounty. The proper thing for iCiau olllaal to do is to "haw to the lino, anii D0 honest or faii-mimlcd person will ,lv fumwiu.U) ooiiiyU"" 'i ''"-'i' Tlie lose ball boys of Lusk are ex pei ted here on Wednesday to try a second (fame with the Harrison Itoys. A good game will lie played, and although the score may not be as low as in some of the league games, there will lie a lot of fun in it, both for players and specta tors. A grand free dance wjl! lie given in the evening, and every body is in vited fo come and enjoy a good time. County Commissioner Weir came in yesterday, the county clerk having noti fied him that the warrants were drawn as ordered by the county board and only needed his signature, and is now at work signing the warrants. This is simply a clerical act on the part of the chairman of a board of county commissioners, as the statute is mandatory and states that the commissioner whose term shall expire within the year shall sign. So be has nothing to say in the matter. The republican primary for Bowen precinct was held at the court room yes terday, from 3 to 6 p. m., under the rules adopted by the county central conimmittee. The delegates elected to the republican county convention which meets on Saturday were C. E. Verity, G. Guthrie and Go. Olinger. E. E. Livermore was nominated for assessor and P. L. Mc 'rea for road overseer. N. L. Pollard and I'avid Bartlett were nominated for constables and S. II. Jones for justice of the peace to till va cancies. Candidates were also nomin ate! for judges and clerks of election. Marrlrd. Jones Price At lire residence of the bride's parents, in Sioux county, Neb., on Wednesday, July 1, 1S90, by Bev. I. F.

There was, according to accounts a su perior brand of harmony at the Dodge county republican convention on Friday last at Fremont. The chief business was to get L. U Richards formally into the Held for governor, which was done, and very well done,, in a preamble of four whereases and one resolution. Mr. Rich ards responded iu a very neat little speech refering to the odice for which he was endorsed, in which he s-aid:"I shall make no scramble for it. If it comes to me. it will come in an honorable way. The contest must be a fair and honest one as lar as i am concerned. But if it should come to me, i sh ill try to prove myself worthy of it, and to lulllll its du ties to the best of rny ability." Mr. Richards seems to be a very good sort ol a man. His neighbors say it, any- way' Notice of Dissolution of Partnership. Notice is hereby given that the part nership heretofore existing between L. J. Simmons and W. E.
