A few days ago the stock of mer
cliandise in possesion of O. R. Wells was
takrtn under chattel mortgage and is be
ing dixjtoxed of at private sale. This is
to be regretted, but the close financial
condition makes it very hard for merch
ants and business men to keep their lieads
above water, unless they luive a good
capital to back them. We do not know
wliat Mr. Wells intends doing.
The gospel temperance entertain
ment on last Sunday evening brought
out a good humlier of people aud pasaed
off very pleasantly. A feature of the
exercises was the music which was high
ly appreciated by all. There is plenty
of musical talent in this community to
make any public gathering interesting
and it is pleasing to note that those who
can assist in that line are taking a lively
interest in it. '
It is only a short time now until
tlie stute fair. If Sioux county is going
to take advantage of the opportunity of-
time tlie matter was taking shape. There
appears to lie inclination for one to wait
for tlie other. This should be reversed
and each sliould push tlie matter along
as much as possible. Don't wait for
your neighlior, but get everything ready
you can and. let those in cl(arge of the
matter know yon have it.
Tlie recent rains make corn a cer
tainty in Sioux county. The grass is al
so greatly improved by them. It is
stated by parties wlio have been travel
ing over a good iortion of the state re
cently tlutt tlie grass in Sioux county is
better than it averages in the counties
throughout the slate. The failure of
the small grain in the north art of the
county is the worst feature of the crop
question. The corn in that locality will
yield less thai) it would laid the rains
come at tho proier time but still
they will get some corn there which
is Iietter than a gmsl many localities
ivill do.
An important business change occur
red lust Saturday, Weir & .k., disposing
of the stock and business known as the
Ranch Supply House. The purchaser is
Hugh W. MacUtchlun, a gentleman of
large business experience. This business
ostablishmeul has l-eti long and favorab
ly known to the eople of Sioux county
and it is safe to say tliat it will lose none
of its popularity by Uie change of own
ership. Tlie nw proprietor has been en
gagisl in aiitive business since Uiyhood
and will use his experience to tlie best
advantage. Tlie retiring firm of Weir &
Co., Iwve tlie good wishes of all for tlieir
fytura risSrity, but they will not cou
tinue as a linn. E. A. Weir exiects to
go east in the near future to complete
his education, but Mrs. H. C. Basset will
coutinue to reside in Harrisou,
Tlie Blair Pilot serves notice, on tlie
Dorsey strikers of tliat county that if
they send a Horsey delegation to the
congressional convention, against the
wislws of the H;Ople tliey will have toac
count for it. That is aMut the senti
ment all over , the district. The best
friends and warmest supjsjrters of Mr.
Dorsey know full well that the nomina
tion of that gentleman would be in Dis
position to the wishes of the mass of vo
ters, and would endanger the success of
tho party. That is why the democrats
of the district are all In favor of tlw
nomination of the present incumbent. It
is to be hoped tliat he will see thnt with
the present feeling among tlie people
it would he lotd i for tne party to force
himself Usn the) tioket and act accord

Messrs. Tl ion ins, Reidy and Jones for

meeting of tlie citizens to further tlie pi

the people are taking a good deal of
teresl in the move and all that is m
is a little organization so that ceri
persons will have certain things to I
after and theu the work will be doa
properly. The people realize that luofjk
good can be done the county hy makirf
an exhibit at tlie state, in tlie way fT
getting ieople to come here to locaf .
and also in getting cheap money h.
for investment, than in any other waf
and it is hoped tliat all will take a livr
interest ia the work and make it a git
success. To win tlie tt50 premium 1

them died. It was .believed tliey had
been poisoned, and as tlie Shay family
had been in the neighborhood just prior
to the occurrence, and it was reported
tliat they would fence their place with
paris green, suspicoin fell upon tlsmi. A
warrnat was sworn out before Justice
Mcintosh, and Mary Shay, who was still
in the neighborhood, was arrested, and
the case continued until the 18th inst.
John Shay was not to be found and is
sumiosed to lie out of the state at work
on the railroad. There has been a great
deal ef trouble among those living on
White River, but this appears to be the
worst depredation committed. The cir
cumstances jwiint strongly to the Shay
family as Hie purpetrators of the base
crime, unless some one took advantage
f their presence and the reported threats
made by them to do tlie deed so that sus
piciun would fall on them. Be that as
it may, it is to be hoed that the guilty
((iii'ties will lie found and punished, and
no effort should lie sjiared to appredend
the poison fiends.

The followinw letter was received by
tlie editor of The JiX'knai, a few days
ago.' Hie writer is one of Uie oldest resi
dents as well as one of the lead
ing merchants of Seward, And a man
who lias tlie confidence of all who know
him, and this is what he has to say of H.
T. Conley, the republican nominee for
county attorney of Sioux County:
Skward, Neb., Aco. K, 1H80.
EuiTOE Journal: I understand that
our former townsman, Mr. H. T. Conley,
lias been nominated for county attorney
by tlie Republicans of your county.
Now I just want to say if you will give
me a little space in your paper, that if
lie T.ple of your county want an hon
orable, upright man far that office, one
who will attend to the business of the of
fice as it sliould be done, and in a gentle
manly way, they ought to elect H. T.
Conley. I have known H. T. Conley
pretty nearly all bis life and lie worked
for us live or six years, part of the time
on Uie farm, but most of the time in the
store, und I do say with pleasure, that in
all my associations with him that I never
knew a single circumstance that did not
show him to be honorable, agreeable and
prompt in every thing that he ought to
do, and the pople of Sioux county will
never regrtjliaving elected iiim to tlie
office of county attorney or any other
position of trust or profit.
