The indications are that a great many people will I in Harrison on S.it urday to witness the game of ball whicl is to tako dace lielween the Montrose .wl lbirnson clubs. Much simrt is looked for by all as the teams are likely to be quite evenly matched. Tlie county commissioners have again looked at the condition of the foundation of the court house and louna that it must lie Ilxed in some way to ,.,iM-i Hirf Imildine. The sooner it is llxed the less it will cost ami it is hoped tliut prompt a lion w ill be taken. The retiorU are that the prosect for corn never were better m Sioux county than they are now and the small . lu e.illev will do much better b...... ... J than was expected a short time ago The rains have caused everything to come out very rapidly and the potato crop will be immense. Severe local storms seem to lx quite r.....n. lii season. (Ju last Friday one visited the place of. (ieo. H.

In lioth instances but a small amount of ter ritory was covered. W, It Smith i !'' frotn Cliiulrun trying to get the people of this locality to contribute toward the bonus which Chadron is trying to raise to secure n beet sugar plant. So far us we have learned tho ople here would like to have a factory located at some point within reach and would be willing to contract to grow beet and ship to it, but iImv do not feel inclined vo give laud or money to help build up llier town. Mr. Smith says that Alliance Ims tho bonus already raised and the plant will be located there If Cbrdron does not get io that the people of thil locality will I abl to ship W it in either event. A prty was given at the residence of Mr. ami Mrs. (I. V. Hester on Tues day evening in lionor f Tf ss Anna Price. Those present included Misses Louiu an.i Claudia Hester, (ierlach. Kendall, Price, and Mesduines W. II. Itavis and V. A. j Hester, and Messrs. Itlewett, Marsteller, lavis, Hester, Hough and Smith. A very pleasant time is reported by those who vere present. Tliere does not apiear to lie reason for complaint ol lack of rain lately. Tlie ram of the 4th put things in excel lent condition and the one on Friday evening soaked tlie ground as deep as the water could iienetrate. The latter was accompanied here by considerable wind but no damage was done except one of the chimneys of the court house was blow n dow n, but it would not have occurred had not the brace been defect ive. -Commissioners Weljer and Tinkhain started yesterday for the south part of the county to view and appraise the lands recently selected by the state as additional school lands. It is in a local ity where there are no settlers and they will likely have a hard job to (iml the land they are looking for, but as it is at the exiiense of tlie state the people of the county have no kick to make. They went prepared to camp so that they do not have to depend on settlers. As a rule th- people of the county take an interet in the school matters and the annual school meeting, but in some cases tli -v f.ul to do so. In one district we learned of, but one man went to the school house on the day of the meeting. He was equal to tho emergency and called the meeting to order, elected a full set of officers, voted a levy of twenty-live mills, decided on the. immlier of mouths of school for the year and all other business necessary to lie done at the annual meeting. On last Friday evening a party was given, at the residence of Mr. and Mis. 1 J. Simmons by .Miss .Mimie Small, in honor of Miss Daisy lloane. The rain in the early part of the evening prevented some from lieing present and also inter fereil with the outdoor part of the pro Lrram. Those present were Misses Uoaiic, Price, Marsteller, Louie and Claudia Hester. Smith and Mrs. W. II. Davis, and Messrs. Davis. Marsteller, Churchill, Blewett, Hough and Smith. A very pleasant evening was spent, during which the vonug people were regaled with ice-cream and cake. In another column appears the announcement of the county supertcn- dent of the sixth annual teachers insti tute. He is making arrangements to have the liest institute ever held in the county. It was desired by many of the teachers that a three weeks session be held hut the county board did not appro priate funds siitlicent to allow that some of tlie board wanted to make no appropriation whatever for institute but we are glad to know that the majority of the commissioners are bettor friend of education than to make such a record. The progressive teachers who attend institute in order to be lietter prepared to ierform their duties in the school room will be pleased to know that Supt. Davis will not issue certificates to those who do not attend institute and then attempt to get a certificate on some flimsy tniiiissl up excuse. .Mr. Davis is an olliciul w ho knows no pets' and all who have the interests of the schools at heart will uphold him in his position Announcement. To the Tfdi'herg tf Sion.r County: The sixth annual teachers institute will begin on August 20 and continue two weeks. Tlie services of two excel lent instructors li'ive been secured, and it is the purpose to make this institute the most interesting and instructive of any yet held. In order to accomplish this it will necessitate tho attendance of entire corps of teachers in the county. While the superintendent fully under stands and appreciates the dilliculties with which tho teachers have to contend, he feels that it is his duty and that it is but just to those who do attend, that ho refuse certificates to persons who do not attenil institute for at least one week (which is required by law) unless a very reasonable excuse can lie gi veil. Kvery elfort to curtail expense to teachers will be made and the superin tendent will endeavor to secure hoard and rooms for the teachers if they so de sire. Very Res)ectfully W. II. Davis, Co, Supt.

The Xcw Sectionalism. So far as Populism stands at Washing ton, it is only right that it should 1? fairly reported. We are hearing much of a new sectionalism which is said to be arraying the West and Southwest against the Eist, to bo instigated and propagated by the populist party. We have even heard threats of the secession from the Union of a. portion of the United States unless certain legislation should lie accomplished. From Kansas Colorado and other Western common wealths have come to the Eastern press many extravagant reports of extreme political and social unrest, mingled with warnings calculated to alarm tho timid Eastern mind and to deepen the convic tion already existing among tlie unlrav eled residents on the Atlantic seaboard that tho West is rabid and terrible, and that its views and sentiments must of necessity lie treated with sharp suspicion It is extremely unfortunate that this sectional spirit should have lieen so dis agreeably awakened. The blame is perhaps to lie about evenly divided. The East might well have ascertained that a few noisy and extreme men do not make up the West nor express its sentiments. The West, on the other hand, as represented by some of its chos en leaders, might well have spoken with more discrimination and sobriety regard ing the moneyed classes of the East. The populists declare that their party is not a transient movement but that it has come to stay permanently and to prevail. The leaders of all the third party movements that have preceded the populist party since the war have held the same view. They have declared that the old parties, ono or both, were doomed to speedy disintegration and that the new party was destined to rise to a period of dominance, just as the republican party, seizing upon new issues, had made itself the party of progress and had at length triumphed in lHfiO. But the third-party movements of the past twenty-five years have all been transient, so far as the structure was concerned. That they have exercis ed a wide-spread and important leaven ing influence is not to bo denied. From "Tlie Progress of the World."
