P. A. Bigelow, T. O. Williams and
H. A. Priddy . brought in samples of
grain the past week which show up well
for the localities in which they were
grown.
Don't forget to collect something to
help out the state fair exhibit. When
you find anything suitable put it away
carefully and notify the committee that
you will have it here on the appointed
day to be loaded into the car.
Sam Tebbet brought in some sam
ples of wheat and corn on Tuesday
which go a long way toward proving
that crops are not a failure in Sioux
county. He also brought a water melon
Which was of excellent flavor.
Steps are being taken to have the
old Smith building fixed up and it will
likely be occupied in the near future by

The east bound train broke in two
last Friday evening shortly aftes leaving
Lusk and when it came together it shook
things up pretty lively. No one was
hurt to speak of and a few broken bump
ers and drawdeads was the extent of the
damage. ,
. . .The Underbill brothers expect some
horses from the east in a few days. On
account of the hard times there is no
market there for them and on account of
the drouth feed is so high there that
there ia no profit in keeping them in that
country. .
It rained for about four hours last
night, about an inch of water falling.
That makes it so that the farmers can do
tome fall plowing and put in winter
wheat. The sooner winter grain is put
in the better for it needs a chance to get
a good start before cold weather.
Vague rumors are once more afloat
to the effect that this line of railroad is
to be extended lo the near future. It
would be very nice if such a thing would
occur so that this locality would have
improved ttain service, but it is hardly
likely to come about this year. ;

location has been assigned to the exhib

Sioux county should not have a good
prize this year.
Dr. Phinney received a telegram
yesterday from his wife stating that
their youngest child was very sick and
not expected to rive. - He took the first

L. Oerlach received a letter from
his wife yesterday informing him that
the physicians who have examined the
little boy are of the opinion that he can
be cured, but will not say positively un
til they have treated him for a couple of
weeks. The trouble arises from the ef
fects of scarlet fever which he had a
year or more ago.
Rumors have frequently come to
the ears of the editor of THE Journal as
to what the new settlers intended to do
to him for the part he took in getting
them to come here to live, but he never
anticipated any danger. In this he was
mistaken for shortly after dark on Mon
day evening the crowd of new settlers
came to the home of the editor and it
was evident that there was a conspiracy.
No personal violence was done, however,
and a pleasant evening was spent to
commemorate the thirty-fifth birthday
of the pencil pusher of this paper.
On last Thursday P. Lacy and Jesse
and William Sherrill arrived from Battle
Creek, Iowa, to see the country and
visit friends. The two last named are
brothers of J. W. Sherrill and the party
went out to his place that day and have
not come to town since. They were at
tracted to this place by having read a
copy of The Journal. Like all other
home seekers who come here they were
disgusted with the trip fr-jity Chadron
here, but the railroad, not triS country,
is to blame for that. '
On last Thursday word was received
from Dr. Phinney that he bad arrnged so
that he could move and that he expected
to be here on Monday with a car load of
goods. He got here and hat opened his
stock in the middle room in the Andrews
building, which was formerly occupied
as a drug store. He is busy at work
getting his goads in shape and supplying
the wants of those who call on him. He
nas also had a good deal to do at a phy
sician since he arrived and has not had
time to get everything in shape. The
people are all glad that be hat come
here to locate, especMty the Seward
people who know him. He it a pharma
cist and knows how to handle drugs and
will carry those of good quality and
strength, which fact will be appreciated
by the people here. He it a regularly

the good work will go on. George says
he is building up a good tytw practice.
The report mentioned in the last
issue of The Journal in regard to the
trouble at one of the outlying post
offices seems to have been made on mis
leading rumor in part. Parties who are
interested on both sides and know the
facts have informed us that the story
that the postoffice official had opened a
letter was wrong. The letter was sent
to the office in charge of a child and the
official claims that it arrived in such a
condition as to be unavailable and was
placed in another envelop and addressed
and tent on its way. The matter has
been settled tatisfactorially between the
parties and dropped and The Journal
does not desire to do any one an injus
tice and gladly makes the correction.
Frequent inquiries an made as to
the progress of the suit which County
Superintendent Southworth and H. T.
Zerbe wen working up to knock out the
incorporation of the village of Harrison.
So far as we can learn then has been
nothing done except that those gentle
men went to Chadron and consulted
an attorney in the matter and it is not
likely that anything will be done. It
would avail nothing, even if the effort
was successful, for several reasons. In
the first place the people of the precinct
would have the petitioning for a saloon
to do and if they are not to receive the
license money for the school they an
not likely to ask that a license be
granted. Then, again, as toon as the
requisite number of people become resi
dents of the town the same could be re
incorporated and that would stop the
division of the money' and the various
school districts would ceas to receive
any portion of the license money. The
scheme was worked up by the little
ring pf cute people who cared not what
they did to injun the town and was
used for the purpose of booming some
one for office this fall, but it hat fallen
to flat that the cute people deny their
work in it, and the boomer it glad to
keep still about it. Such little schemes
an built on the boomeranR plap, as A
vulu, and return and injure the one who
lUotripts to use them. ;
C The street commissioner could do
some good service by pounding down
the spikes in the sidewalks about town.
As the village would be responsible for
any injury sustained by reason of defeo
wve walks it Would be well for the vil
lage board to look after the matter.
Some of the sheep owners report
that they have Sot yet received any

PATENTS
FOR INVENTIONS
PROCURED BY
Press Claims
Equal with the interest of those having claims against the Government is
that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit of valuations because of the
incompenteccy or inattention of the attorneys employed to obtain their patents.
Too much care cannot be exercised in employing competent and reliable solicitors
to procure patents, for the value of a patent depends greatly, if not entirely, upon
the care and skill of the attorney.
With a view of protecting inventors from worthless or 'careless atttorneys
and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid patents, THE PRESS
CLAIMS COMPANY has retained counsel expert in patent practice and is there
fore prepared to
OBTAIN PATENTS, CONDUCT INTERFERENCES, MAKE SPECIAL EXAMINATIONS
PMtSBCCTE REJECTED CASKS, REGISTER TRADE MARKS and OOPYTIGHTS, '
RENDER OPINIONS as to SCOPE Mid VALIDITT of PATENTS,
PROSECUTE and DEFEND INFRINGEMENT SUITS,
ETC., ETC.
If you have an invention on hand send THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY a
tketch or photograph thereof, together with a brief description of the important '
features, and you will be at once advised as to the best course to pursue. ModeU
are not necessary unless the invention is of a complicated nature. If others are
infringing on your rights, or if you are charged with infringement by others, tub.
mit the matter to ut for a reliable OPINION before acting on the mat ter.
