A pleasant time was enjoyed at the
social at the court house last Saturday
evening.
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.

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?

TWICE IN A WEEK.
Just What the People Waiit.
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.
