Price, f2.0d Thursday, Nov. 19, 1891. llimai Chase, a full-blooded Iiwlian of the Omulia tribe was admitted to rutic tice in the United States federal court at Omaha a few days ago. This is the first Indian ever admitted to practice law ui Nebraska. Hj was educated at the In dian schools and graduated from the law school of the university of Pennsylvania. He appear to be well-qualified for the profession. A maB was fined $ 100 and costs at Rising City recently for giving liquor to a couple of men, causing thtm to get drunk and disturb the reace, while the men who got drunk and raised the row were allowed to go unpunished. That is the first casa of the kind that has oc curred under the laws of the state. The Chudron Journal has entered its eighth year. It was first issued from a flog cabin on the banks of Cliadron creek, before the town of Cliadron was located on its present site, and ever since that time it has labored for the up building of 'Cliadron and northwest Nebraska, and its successful career is a fitting reward for its labors. We extend best wishes for its continued prosperity. The Cliadron Advocate lias entered its fifth year and is as saucy as ever. Edi tor Slrldn gets a little oir on some Tines, tut his columns contain a great deal, which if carried into practice would do much to make mankind better, and it is to lie hojed that he will continue to -flourish. The organization of an immigration so ciety in northwest Nebraska would be a move in the right direction. There are a 'number of counties whoso interests in the settlement of the country are the same and a great d al better work could 'be done by an organization of that kind, lit a great deal less cost than is possible by each county going on its own hook. Nebraska is in the lead this year in the fproduct of corn. What will lie the re sutt when the resources of the state are fully developed? ""It must be remem bered that Nebraska is yet in its infancy, ;a!iere is stilr hundreds of thousands of acres of government within its borders subject to homestead entry.

Let the ien ;alty be made thirty days treatment with 'bichloride of gold iustead of thirty days on bread and water. The voters of Lawes county showed their good sense by defeating the town :slnp organization proposition. 1 lie re :peal of the law providing fur township 'organization would be a good thing, un- ile-w the law is very materially changed It is the most expensive luxury that a county can take upon itself. I.indeman and Mr. Walker, a copy con taining the article to w hich The Jothn Ai re! erred, He certainly did not give a copy of that issue of his paper to Mr. Limit-man for tliat gentleman was not at the meeting at White River, neither did he receive the copy to which he was en titled bv mail, neit'ier did J. F. Cook re ceive a copy of tluit issue, nor did one arrive at this office. Mr. Me-eraull was very careful not to dismbute any of his pars until after the meeting at White River had closed. He knew it would not be well for him to do so. He makes some very peculiar state ments regarding the county finances, which show that he does not know the difference between the connty funds and the bond and school funds. He sjieaks of an advertising fund and refers to it as the fund of the editor of this pajier and notes with apparent glee that there was but 2i ceuts therein. If he would look up the law he might lie able to find where such a fund arises. He states that the editor of The JorHSAJ, has drawn out $792.06 this year. Take tlial as an example of the truthfulness of his statements and a fair estimate of the man and his methods may . lie made. Tlie records show that the hills allowed for printing, publishing.aud supplies fur nished to the county by The Joiknal during ls'JO is $3x2.64, the mere trifle of !);). 42 less than the TiiH.iiuTiiwj man states. He makes a great fuss about the charges for commissioner's records, be cause a portion of it is leaded, and claims that a square is ten lines of solid nonpar eil. It would lie interesting to know how it would make any difference in the number of lints to lie leaded or solid. It may lie that he has some way of milk ing a difference, hut the writer sees no way of doing so. It might lie slugged out with picas but no one would cunt the slugs and he knows it. The gentle manly editor of the Iltxiiturang has something to sav of the value of TflE Jocrnal office and the amount of tax paid by the editor. The Jucrnal oliice is good enough for us and we pay the taxes assessed and what difference it makes to hitn or any one else or what liearing it has in the case cannot 1 discerned. The bills of The Jocrsal ngainst the county are on record and anyone can ex amine them who may so desire and we will put up a forfeit of $25.00 to the edi tor of the Bnomei'avg if he will prove wherein we have made an illegal charge. He further says the editor of The JoVK- SAL is living a dual existence. Outside of the estimation of MeserauH, there is not enough of the editor of the Binim erang to make one existence. This was demonstrated in the recent election, and even vet he does not appear to liave learned that it is a great deal lietter to tell the truth than to attempt to force misrepresentations and false statements down the throats of his readers. People are not fools even if they do live in the country and they will find out the facts after a time.

Grant Outline, DeaLi 'H- Lumber, Lime, "The recent meetings of the anarchists in Chicago and the liery sjieeclies made 'thereat recall with painfull vividness the bloody riot at HaymarUet in 1886, and show plainly that there is still a set of men at work who desire the overthrow of the government. One of the most un pleasar.t features connected with the 'affair is that the supporters of the red -flag are foreigners who have gained citi zenship only to abuse it Citizenship in the United States is too easily attained under the present laws which allows enemies of good government to acquire all tlte right accorded to any man. It is time that steps were taken to deny such men the right of becoming citizens. "There are thousands of people who come from foreign countries every year for the purpose of becoming good citizens -and abiding by the laws of the land and to all such a hearty welcome should be extended, but some means should be -devised to shut out those who came to engage in an attempt to destroy the gov- eminent which lias given them a home. It is claimed by some that Judge 'Crites should step down and out at once and that his title is now xx-Hon. Crites, as he was appointed to serve until the next general election. The sooner he re tina the better. The name of Judge Kinkaid is already being mentioned as a candidate for con gress from the sixth district. It is some time yet before tin election of a con gressman but there is no harm in look ing over the field fur good material. Last year a good many people in what was then the third district had a great desire to see Kinkaid made the standard- bearer of his parly, but the only state ment made on the authority of that gen tlenian was that he declined to be a can didate. It is generally conceded that had he been the nominee the republican party would not have met with the dis aster of a year ago. In the recent elec tion Judge Kinkaid was the candidate of the people a successor to himself, and if he is made a candidate for congressional honors it will be only at the urgent re quest of those who desire to see the in terests of the district, slate and nation furthered as well as the interests of party. The high standard of fairness, justice and ability shown by Judge Kin kaid on the bench would, beyond ques tion be maintained by him should he lie chosen as a congressman. The Fifteenth judicial district would regret to lose him as one of its judges, even to see him a congressman, and it is a question whether the distinguished jurist of Holt county would care to give up his work in the field of law to enter the halls of congress, and if the people of the sixth congressional district want him to repre sent them it will be necessary for them to speak in no uncertain tones in the matter. He is fitted for the place and would reflect credit on his constituents. Have you a frieod in the east who is paying rent for- high priced land?

The stock is nearly all taken and it will not lie long until the com pany will 1h ready for work. Letters have recently been received here from Omaha parties inquiring aliout the re sult of experiments with sugar Iwets. The fact is becoming known that Sioux county leads the world on rich sugar beets and men of capital who are inter ested in the industry will be seeking it out before long. The reports from Brazil are that civil war is raging in that country and a good deal of bloodshed likely to occur before the matter is settled.
