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

in other Ls-ilities tlicy are waiting to see
if the old parties put up the right kind of

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

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

A Good Sort of Man.
Norfolk Journal.
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
