Tell your friends in the east to come to Sioux county, and keep telling them. They will come if you urge them. ( County Clerk Lindemun is fencing the lot jvhich he recently secured, and which joins his residence on the north. The Jocbxal residence has recently leen enclosed by a woven wire fence, of tho McMullen Fence Company's make, which adds much to the appearance of the place. -We are informed that Charles Biehle is looking for a bunch of steers which he had ranging on Indian creek. A wagon, supposed to be a roundup wagon was seen there a few days ago and since then the steers have not been found. Tom Ernest, Pat and Tom Dunn and J. B. Martin left for Crawford last Sat urday and from there shipped to the end of the B. & M. railroad. That road is being extended and it is said contracts are let as far as the national park. The impression that the preparatory courses at the state university of Ne braska have been abandoned is a mistake. The institution is kept as near in touch with the schools of the state as is pos sible and under the present management the university is doing better work than ever before and is taking a place in the front rank of educational institutions. The fact of tuition being free makes quite a saving to those who attend. A number of those who have an in terest in the band instruments got to gether a few evenings ago and author ized Judge Barker to gather the instra ments and take care of them. They are nrettv well scattered at present, one being at Crawford, two at Montrose and others distributed about the community. The people of Harrison paid for the in struments and they should be cared for. It is quite likely the band will be re organized. f Last Sunday the editor took a drive about ten miles northwest along tne TUama n ma lltAiiannfla on1 ihna. . x i nil.- I I ir n tun i.liviv.:.i..u. ui.u uiuua never saw liner k . , . .. . , ,.. . yanas 01 acres or line lanu in mat locamy """b- .... . ja.i .a i ti, i . cupants at present after getting about three miles from lowti are A. R. Ken nedy and the Bigelow brothers. They are each'in possession of a good farm which they are improving as fast as circum stances will permit, and a number of people could do the same in that locality if they only knew what ihey could get by coming to Sioux county. On last Tuesday the opinion of Judge Kinkaid in the case of Coffee vs. Bixby, better known as the ditch case, was received by the clerk of the district court. Judge Kinkaid decided in favor of the plaintiff, Coffee. The decision was a surprise to many for they believed that it would be in favpr of Bixby. It appears from the decision that a person can acquire rights on government land and by virtue of having .erected and maintained the ditch Coffee had acquired vested rights prior to Bixby's filing on the land. It is expected that the case will go to tho supreme court for final settlement. Cannot some one devise a way by which a flouring mill can be secured for Harrison by the time the crop is ready for market? The work of getting a good road from the valley is progressing and with a good road and a good mill a great deal of trade will come to this place which lias been going .elsewhere. The fact that the acreaga of wheat has in creased about three hundred percent, over the acreage lust year demonstrates that a mill will be very much needed. With the excellent quality , of wheat produced here, and the. cheapness of buijding Btone and lumber and ,tfe low price of fuel, there is no question but what a mill would prove a paying in stitution. , Who will be the means of securing a mill? iper 111. ft )t& every Thursday. in bulk at Turner's.

As I see there is ho one writing from this part of the county I will endeavor to pick up a few items as we do riot wish to be behind the rest. Owing to the backward spring it has made mcjst every one late with small grain, but ibere is a very large acreage sown all the same in our precinct. Will give acreage in next issue if possible. Chas. Grove is getting a well drilled on his place. Something he has needed for some time. John Speas is through seeding for this year. Geo. Dove finished sowing wheat Fri- day- J. W. Grove finished sowing oats Fri day. If we are so lucky io get a good crop of small grain this year, farmerswill not know wnat to ao wren an tneir gram. Wheat sown a month or six weeks ago is looking well, owing to the chance it has had. Geo. Brown was at Harrison one day last week. There will be a new shingle arid plan ing mill on Little Cottonwood now soon. Wra. Harmon and L. D. Harmon talk of going to Montana soon. , If you want a good paper subscribe for The Journal. , An alliance mcjeting was held at No.4 Friday evening and one will be held at No. 3 two weeks from then.

The publishers of The State Journal struck the public want when tho commenced print ing Tho Journal twice a week. The circula tion has been more than doubled.. Everyone can see the advantage of receiving two com plctc papers each week, with markets and telegraphic news while it Is fresh. What makes The Seini-Wcckly Journal so popular is, that it is only 11.00 per year, which is the same price other papers charge for their weeklies. . v A year's subscription to the Twice-a-Feck Journal will carry its readers through the national conventions, the presidential cam paign, and through the next session of tho Nebraska legislature. Everyone w;ill want a reliable newspaper during such stirring times, and the events will afford TheSemi Wcckly Journal ample, opportunity of prov ing its superiority over. auy weekly paper. It is almost as good as a daily, giving 104 pa pers a year at less than one cent per copy. Others give about fifty two papers a year. We are still offering the. paper a year, and our great Stanley book, for il.40, or we will send the book free for two new subscribers. Write for sample copy and wo are sure you will subscribe The Semi. Weekly Journal is the newspaper success of the west.. Join tjic crowd and receive twice aa much for yonr money as the old weeklies give you. Address, Nebraska state Journal, Lincoln, Neb. Send three 2-ecnt stamps for sample set of our Dominoes.
