A. SoraiwoitTH,
County Supt.
The winter has been severe in Mon
tana as well as other places. Frank
Ruasell, who went with Ed Remsburg
from this county, went from their home
to the poKtofllce, twenty miles distant.
On the return trip he lost his way and
wandered around for a long time and
finally reached home but was severely
frozen.
The Nebraska Security Co., is this
week sending out thousands of letters,
circulars and lists of land for sale in
Sioux county to farmers in tho east.
Letters of inquiry are being received in
great numlxjrs, individuals and colonies
are asking about Sioux county, and the
indications are that a heavier immigra
tion will come into Sioux county this
year than ever before.
The Harrison correspondent of the
Omaha live sent in a report of the Coker
trial and entirely omitted the name of
County Attorney Conley therein, al
though all the other attorneys in the
case were mentioned. It is evident that
the correspondent of the lice does
not like Mr. Conley, but it indicates a
pretty narrow minded way of doing busi
ness when pretending to give news that
omissions are made. If the Dee desires
tlie support of the people of this locality
it should get a correspondent who will
not let his personal prejudice overshad
ow his statements.
For four weeks the ground has been
covered with snow and the snow has a
hard crust on top. The result is that
stock which lias to depend on the stand
ing grass for a living are eking out an
existence and not all are able to do that.
Losses are reported by various parties,
and it is also stated that although the
cattle were fat when the bad weather
began they are rapidly becoming weak
ened. The experience of this winter will
prove to stockgrowers that it is neces
sary to provide feed and shelter for such
times in order to avoid serious loss.
Ex-Governor Foster, of Ohio, has been
named by President Harrison as the suc
cessor to the late Secretary Windoni.
The selecon gives very general satisfac
tion. Tlie new secreinry has demonstra
ted the fact that he is possessed of a
great deal of ability.
The Pacific Short Line has passed into
the Iiands of the Great Northern and will
be pushed west from O'Neill as rapidly
as possible, not only to Ogden. but to the
Pacific coast. That means a great deal
for the south part of Sioux county, and
in fact to the entire county for it will
cause that part of the county to settle
rapidly and greatly increase the wealth.
The tide of westward immigration is
beginning unusually early this year.
Three special trains loaded with farmers,
their families, stock and implements, left
one locality in Illinois last week. Two
of the trains stopped in Iowa and the
other came to Northern Nebraska. Over
200 people where in the two parties. It
is generally conceded that Northern Ne
braska will receive the greatest number
of settlers' of any portion of the state
during 101.
The Herald evidently does not like to
have its pet theories knocked out by the
courts and in mentioning the decision of
Judge Kinkaid insinuatingly remarks that
"It is, therefore only necessary for the
legislature to make signs." That paper
has t-iken it upon itself to argue points
of law at various times in the past and
the arguments have always lieen from
the standpoint taken by the gang, and if
any person or court took exceptions to
line of argument, the mud-batteries of
the Hrrald were at once trained upon
him. The gang is apparently a little
timid about attacking the decision of
Judge Kinkaid, through their organ, so
they simply insinuate, hut the records of
the court are enlmceu just tlie same.
THE Journal is informed that ere the
sun rises and sets many times Jun.es E.
Boyd will t'ike his hat, vacate the ex
ecutive ofllce at tlie capital and go home
and John M. Thayer will still be govern
or of Nebraska. The people of the state
in general will be glad when that takes
place. The userpation of the ofllce by
fioyd when it was evident that he had no
right to it has made many people want
to see him ousted. In the matter of de
fending the interests of the state which
he had taken an oath to do, John M.
Thayer called down a torrent of abuse
from a certain class which wo not in
keeping with the facts and circumstan
ce, a ixl when Gen. Thayer again takes
his seat as governor, fie will nave occa
sion to feel even prowler than at any
former tine.
As to a Continuance.
Tlie Heruld in its last issue attempted
to make out that George Englebrecht
who had given bonds to answer to tlie
charge of assault with intent to kill, is
not under obligations to appear under
the bond now on file for the reason tliat
a new bond was not demanded. The fol
lowing is a copy of the affidavit for con
tinuance: In tlie DUtriet Court of Sioux County, Ne

The law in such cases is that a bond
holds good until released in ojien court,
or the case finally disposed of. It will,
without doubt be to tlie interest of the
men who are on the bond of Mr, Engle
brecht to see that he is present when the
district court convenes.

STATE OF NFIIRASKA, COUNTY OF SlOUX, SS :
I, Charles E. Verity, president, of the above
named bank, do solemnly swear that the
above statement is true to the best of my
knowledge and belief.
Chari.ks e. Verity.
'-- Subscribed and sworn to before

II. T. Covlev,
Notary Public.
There has been a good deal of talk
about a new judicial district being formed
out of Sheridan, Dawes, Box ilutte and
Sioux counties. The best information to
lie had on the subject is to the cfl'ect
that no such district will be formed. If
any change is made it will most likely be
that an additional judge will be provided
for the 12th district. If Boyd has the
appointing power at that time it is likely
that A. VV. Crites ex-receiver at the land
olllce will be named for the place, hut we
hope ere that time that Boyd will be out
and then a republican will be in the line
of npitointment. Two men in the west
ern jiart of the district have been, favor
ably spoken of in that connetion Hon.
A. Bartow, of Chodron, and Hon. V. W,
Wood, of Rush villa. The former has
stated that he did not aspire to tlie po
sition so that it is more than likely that
Mr. Wood will be the man, should the
legislature make such provision.

surely destroys scrofula as Ayer's Barea
