r Tta Sicux County Journal. Subscription Prk, $2.00 L. J. Sli Entered at tb HarriHOU pout iiit n rODi clajM u:ilW. Thursday, November S3. lU-4. The HeoiingforJ Guide makes a r ar about Daugherty being knife! by K;h katd's friends in Holt and ii.ies count ies. The official records nf the votes tio not show that any such work was done It coats nothing to be fair in th--e mut ters ami nothing is gained by engender ing bard feelings between different parts of the district. The decision of the administration to insue ao additional $"0,00f).000 in lnnU does not aeeiu to phase the people or L t country, regardless of party. It will relieve the strain on the treasury to a certain extent but the relief will be but temporary and then the condition will have to be faced just the same. Wn.it is needed is that every etfert be made to furnish the people of the United States with employment on things which can be exported and make the balance of trade with Europe once more in luvor of this country. That will cause the otream of gold to come this way. It is reported that Da uglier ty will con test Kern's title to a seat in congress. The grounds on which the action is based ore not given, but it is hoped that unless then are good reasons for it that no fight will be made. The same should govern in the matter of governor. If Holcomb was fairly elected he should not be disturbed. A groundless or pure ly partisan contest would do no good bat much harm. Of course, if fraud or crooked work caused the returns to ap pear different from what they should an investigation should not be opposed, es pecially by those who are leaders of a party whose chief claim is that it is for reform. Of all the unreasonable things in the line of politics that has occurred in this state is the attempt the make a senato rial candidate of Tom Majors. It ia true he has many warm friends who are sore over the result of the election ami who would like to see their hero avenged, but there are others whose rights are entitled to be respected. The fight on the sena torial question was' squarely made be tween Thurston and Bryan and the com plexion of the legiglature"elect is clearly in favor of the former. The republican party in Nebraska certainly has more than one man who is capable and worthy recognition. When the legislature cotiveftes fctrd takes up the question of making prow ttion for the drouth-stricken portions of the state) it is hoped that the members will consider that it will be a great step If they help prevent the recurrence of such conditions as How exist in marly portions. Two things can be done which will go a long way in that direction. One is to make good irrigation laws and pro vide for experiments for artesian wells iand the other is to provide a liberal bounty on beet sugar, such bounty to be paid to the grower of the beets. As the rtortftwest districts are represented by art element opposed to such things the prop er Steps should be taken by those who haw been elected from other districts, tut whose range of vision and thought 'extends beyond themselves. To any one who carefully surveys the "existing conditiotis in tlie United 'States three things become very evi dent. , That there is a feeling of unrest iimong the people tte'er before known. S, That ft will require careful and hdh 'est effort to overcome the difficulty. 3, VbV the remedy tnust be outside of Ipoiitiaal lines. The first condition noted seerhs to be, o a Ve9y 'great extent, 'cte-gaht to the Tmancial condition, but this is greatly augmented by the general business de ipression which has prevailed for about "two years. In the past the great poHti Vl forties stood on platforms which ex twened the position of each on the ques tion. To-day snch is not the case for ft is iiWewn by the Various 'state and 'and congressional platforms that no par Hy is a unit as to the bes'. method by Vhwih to supply a remedy for the evils Vriitenf;.

PATENTS. NOTICE TO INVENTORS. There never was a time in the history of onr country when the demand for inven tions and improvements In the urts and science generally was o great as now.

One thing that accounts for this is 77e Jinu-niWt principles. It is republican, 'true and blue' but first of all it is a great newsjiaper anil consiJers news the essential feature. It prints more state telegraph news than either of the Omaha papers. The business inter ests of the state recognize in The Jtur rial tlie only slate puic-r which is stand ing up for the welfare of Nebraska. You can see how 77ie Jonnutl is growing in your own town. It is gain.ng in every other town in the state just as much. The reduced price is only 50 cents per month without Sunday, or 8.i tents r month with Sunday. This also accounts for the big growth. The semi weekly Journal has the largest cir culation of any Nebraska paper. It has completely routed its old-fashioned once-a-week rivals. It is being sent from now until January 1st, 1M, for fcl.00. This carries readers through the coming legislature und through the next presi dential campaign. It gives readers two complete papers each week for the price of one. Gov.

Si A 1 r m Hi Sioux County, - ' ! THE LAND OF THE HOME STEADER. Free Homes for More Than 5,000 Men. A new county with schools, churches, railroads, etc., AND 800,000 ACRES YET OPEN TO HOMESTEAD ENTRY. Contains over forty-five miles of rail oad and has no county bonds. SO BONUS, XO DEBTS, LOW TAXES. Fuel, Posts, Logs and Lumber I'liespr r Than at any Other I'luce In Nebraska. Sioux county is the northwest county of Nebraska It in nUiul thirty miles east and west by about seventy miles north and south and contains OVER 1,300,000 ACRES of land. There are more bright, sfiark ling, siiiall streams in the county tluin can la; found in the same nrua elsewhere in the state. It ha more pine timlier in it than all the rest of the state combined Its grasses are the richest and most nu tritious known so that for stock -growing it is unexcelled. The noil varies from a heavy clay to a light sandy lonni and is capable of pro ducing excellent crojm. The principal crops are small grain and vegetables, although good corn is grown in the valleys. The wheat, oats rye and liarley are at! of. unusually fine quality and command the highest mar ket prices. ' Che water is pure and refreshing and is found in abundance In all parts of tbe county. The county in practically out of debt and has over fortyflve miles of railroad within its borders, has a good brick court house and the necessary fixtures for run ning the county and there has never been one dollar of county bonds issused and hence taxes w ill ls low. The Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley railroad crosses Sioux county from east to west and the U. & M. has about fifteen miles of its line in the northeast part of the county. The climate is more pleasant than that of the eastern portion of.Nebraska, There is still OVER 600,000 ACRES of land in Sioux county yet open to homestead entry. It is better land and more desirably located than that for which such rushes are made on the tapen ing of a reservation. There is no rail road land in the county and for that reason its settlement las bwett slow for no Bfiecial eirort to get settlers was made, as was done in the early days of the settlement of the eastern part of the state. Oood deeded land can be purchased at reasrtnalile rates w ith government land adjoining so that a person who wants more Ihin one quart section caw obtain it if he has a little means. There nfe about fc.Mv people in the county and there is room for Miousamls more. ; IWri,on is the county wcat and is sit-! uated on the F. E. & M. V. railroad, and is as good a town as ihe thinly settled ountry demands. ! School hooses and Jhohjics are pro vided in nlniosl every MAtlenrent aaal are ;opt up with the times. AH who desire to got a homotead rt uy land cheap are Invited to come and ee the ccuntry for tlic?nis4 ves attd judge d its merits.
