A pood exhibit at the state fair will
increase tlie value of every bit of prop

in tlie northwest, being valued at over
five thourand dollars. Sioux counU
will soon have a reputation for the flni
stock grown there.
Eli Smith brought in a willow of
k this year's growth, the main stalk and
limbs of which made an aggregate length
of 01 i feet. If that does not indicate
that the soil of Sioux county has produc

what is neccmsary to demonstrate th
fact

C L. Brooks and Frank Demasig
will bring in the big pine log to be taken
to the state fair, li is said to be over
three feet in diameter. It is safe to pre
dict that no other couuty in the state
will snow itH equal. Logs of that size
are scarce in Nebraska outside of Sioux
rounty.
Hie reports from over the county in
regard to articles for the exhibit at the
state fair are better than any one sup
posed they would be. All that is needed
is to get the stuff together and Sioux
county will make a showing highly cred
itable, and the result will be that all
will be benefitted thereby.
There are about ten loads more of
logs and trees to be hauled from the can
yons to get all the stuff for the log
house here. Any one who has a team
should take time enough to get a load
up. The committee will tell you just
where you can find the logs and yon can
thus help give Sioux county a boom,
C, E. Holmes, as member of the
committee on grasses and grains for tha
state fair exhibit, received some val
uable assistance from Rev. J. M. Bates
who waa here last week. We venture
to predict that no county; exhibit of wild
grasses will be in bettor shape than that
from Sioux county.
A special excursion train of -home

The court awarded damages to plaintiff

We understand that Mactachlan
"ook. the new proprietors of the Ran
Supply House, contemplate the erection
f a business building of dimension'
lufllcient to hold the stock of goods thev
xpect to carry. That will be a gain for
the town.
The premiums offered for the best
motility collective exhibit are -cauli priw
f f250 and champion silver medal, on
hundred copies, one year, of tlie Niirw
'it Turmr, and one special prize of $2f
for the best and largfst collw-tion of na
tive grasses. Certainly that is worth
little effort on the part of each citizen of
Sioux county.

It does not matter what you haw
that shows the productiveness of the noil
of Sioux county, it all helps make up an
exhibit. The more the better. Bring it
in and give it to the committee. It is a
duty to the general prosperity of county
and none should hesitate to do all they
can to help the matter along.
Last week Mrs. S. C. Basset moved
into her new house and on Saturday
evening a number of her friends took her
by surprise and gathered there to spend
the evening. The time passed pleasant
ly in social converse, interspersed with
vocal and instrumental music and tht
party returned to their homes wishing
Mrs. Bassett a long and pleasant resi
deuce in her new home.
It will take two cars to transport
the exhibit for the state fair to Linnoln.
The work on the log house is progress
ing in gr-od shape. The committee will
need a number of teams to get trees
from the canyons suitable to put around
the building after erected. If you can
assist in this matter, report to the com
mittee which is composed of Thomas
Reidy, Dovid Bartlett ond C. L. Brooks.
The fusion gang outfit held the ad
journed session of its convention on last
Tuesday.' The total number of delegates
present were nine, of which three were
from Bowen precinct; three from Bodarc
precinct; and one each from Five Points,
White River and Warbonnet precincts.
O. P. Davis was nominated for county
attorney and F. L. Simons for county
commissioner. Simons was a candidate
for the nomination before the republican
convention and received three votes, so
that counting the votes he received in
both conventions lie got all told, twelve
votes.
An addition has been made to the
proprietors of the Ranch Supply House.
James li. Cook having associated him
self with Hugh W. MacLochlan, and the
business will now be conducted by the
firm of MacLaclilan & Cook. Mr. Cook
is wellknown to tha people of Sioux
county, being proprietor of the Agate
Sonrurs stock farm and has been a resi
dent of th county for a long time. " The
Bnancial standing of the Ranch Supply
House under tha former ownership waa
excellent, and tha new addition to the
Arm makes it on of tha strongest, finan
cially, in tha northwest. Tho intention
Is to greatly increase the quantity and
variety of goods carried, so that the peo
pie will ba able to buy just what they
want, Mid by buying in Urge quantities,
thev MMct to ba enabled to aell their
patroaa flrat claas goods at low figure.

O. M. Kemiu. tlie mdepeodant can-

irt date has not been learned.
This may not he a good year for po
ntoes, but yesterday we took one from
lot on sale at the Ranch Supply Hou
which weighed one pound and fourteen
mnces, and there were plenty more
which were nearly as large. They were
rrown by Alex Steele.
It may he legal but it looks peculiar
'or the sale of property taken under
liattel mortgage filed in Xite office of the
ounty clerk of Sioux county to he ad
vertised for sale in Hawes county, and if
he parties taking the property would
look it up they might avoid getting their
foot in it."
It would lie a good thing had ar
rnngrements been made to have some of
Sioux county's fine stock at tlie state
'air. To have it known that such horses

tber draft horses are owned in the coun
v nnd Unit at the Agate Springs stock

Sred trotting horses, would certainly at

rood stock.
In another column appears a call
'or the board of county commissioners to
nect on Saturday, September fith for the
' ransiiction of county business. There
ra a numlier of vacancies in the road

Hid it is essential that they be filled. A

the board at its lost meeting.

-Tlie Herald makes a crack at Attor-
ley Conley because he would not sign a
wtition to the district judge askintr
that no jury be called for the September
term of the district court for Sioux coun
ty. The fact of the matter is that Mr.
onley is retained in more cases now on
the docket than all those who signed that
oetition put together, and a large numlier
f the cases are for jury trial. If an at
torney desires to have his caries deferred
t is all right for him to favor no jury,
but when an attorney wants the cases in
hich he is employed tried in order that
his -clients may know the result, it is but
right tliat he should want a jury. Per
haps the editor of the gang organ does
not want a jury to pass upon his double
primary work of a few weeks ago.
Gov. Furnas wriWs that they will
furnish a large flag to put on the Sioux
county building at the state fair and
"wboop it up" for Sioux county in every
way possible. The exhibit contemplated
y this county isattacting attention all
over the state and uie resun win oe
highly beneficial. It is only a few days
now until all must be ready to ship. Ho
not let an opportunity go by whereby
you can assist to make it as attractive
as possible, bring something, either wild
or tame. Wild fruits, either on the vine
or put up in glass, will make a feature
which will attract the attention of the
hulies. Pumpkins, melons, squashes,
cucumbers, and everything else should
be on hand in abundance, i o not delay.
But get at it at once.
Some flue specimums of different
articles for the state fair exhibit are
coming io and others are reported ready
for delivering at the proper time. The
enterprise promises to be a grand success.
All should bear in mind Hint everything
should be here on Saturday except such
as are still growing and they should be
delivered not later than Monday, but the
articles should be reported at the com
mittee meeting on Saturday so tliat those
in charge will know just wliat to depend
on and what they will have to make a
special effort to secure between Satur
day and the time for shipment Nothing
stands in the way of Sioux county nmk
ing a grand exdibit if tha proer efforts
ar continued. Some of those interested
are devoting their whole time to the
work and if each person devotes a little
time and energy, success is certain to
crown their efforts. There is no doubt
of the exhibit being a success; and it is
now in order to see how great a point of
excellence it will be possible. to attain

Another suit has been commenced
by Jacob Henry against D. W. Woody
for more damages done to the 4.-rops of
the former by tlie stock of the latter, it
eems Uiat just before the plaintiff came
to Uarrioo on Monday, a lot of cattle
were seen in his Held. He, m company
with witnesses, started to where they
were, and soon saw a man riding rapidly
after the cattle. On getting closer, tbey
identified the stock, and when the man
w ho was after trie stock got closer it
was observed that bis face was masked
with a handken-bief o that they could
not tell who it was. That was a very
peculiar proceedings to say tlie least.
There are a few men who entirely disre
gard the law in regard to taking rare
f their stock. In the .locality where
these parties live, feed is very scarce and
the people can illy afford to nave wriat
they have destroyed, even if they can re-
over in the court the settlers cannot
be blamed if they get out of patience
with such proceedings. A man cannot
continually violate the law with im
punity and the people are getting pretty
thoroughly aroused end should serious re
sults follow those aggravating tlie set
Hers will liave no one to blame but them
selves. If all would abide by the law there
would he no trouble and we hope that all
will see that it is to their interest to re
gard the rights of their neighbors.

Still More About Him.
The following is what the Leader,
of Broken Bow, Custer county, has to
say of H. T. Conley, the republican nom
inee for county attorney of Sioux
countv:
"Many republicans in this county will
remenilier Mr. H. T. Conley, who form
erly practiced law at Ansley, and who
moved to Harrison, PeD., auoui iwo
years ago. J tugn lias oeen nominaieo
by the republicans of hioux, county tor
county attorney, and while the vote in
that countv is close, the people mere can
elect no better man than the republican
nominee. For the position he occupies
to-day he is indebted to no one but H.
T. Conley, and the man who has always
had to fight for success, usually ac
quires it. The Lender hopes Mr. Conley
will be elected.

It Is best not to attempt to remedy costlve

the most prompt and beneficial Is Ayer's

them. Being sugar-coated, these Pills retain
their medicinal virtues for a long tuna, and

" I can recommend Ayer's Pills above all

" In I8M, by the advice of a friend, I began
the use of Ayer's Pills as a remedy for bil
