A man named Glen Santee was shot to death by William Wulul.nA.lxT.il rclnlfl.-u nlw.tit lanli. miles south of Chadron. U was claimed to have been done in self-delenso, but the coroner's jury held that it was done wjth felonious intent. The man who whp was killed went to the house of the .other and during a quarrel was killed. The interest manifested here the lirst of the week indicates the importance of irrigation to Sioux county. It is shown beyond doubt that there are claims for a great deal more water than the streams ipf the county will supply. The only vay to increase the amount of water to )e used is tor 1 lie people to build reser voirs and store the u,l waters lor use at the time needed. The necessity lor Much work is becoming more apparent as f inie passes. Judge Shiras, of the lederal court at pmaha, on last Thursday- decided that the military authorities had the right to allow a post canteen to lie operated on the Fort Kobmson reservation and that liquor could be sold there without re gard to the state laws, and oidered that the officers who had been arrested be discharged.

Hay Springs has a candidate for the republican nomination for state senator for this district, by the name of 8. Bockey. He is said to be a good man for the place. TE JotRXAL is for the nian who is the liest and strongest can didate, no matter from what pari of the district he comes. It is time that the pprthwest district made an effort to re deem itself from what it has had in the ppper branch of the legislature for some " years past. ' There is a good deal of talk alwut Thurston having a cabinet position as sured in the event of the election of McKinley. Such a result would be right und proper when the time comes, but. it is not just to either Thurston or f Km leV to intimate that anv Promises have (wen asked or given, (or that would put 4 1ah Ht......lu.:UtU.. I.. .... r them on a level with the lowest class of IKihticians. Thurston s record in Ne iraska proves that he does not exact a firomise to pay before he will help a qend. ' A great deal is being said of late of the extension of the civil service rules which arc being put in effect by the adminis tration. THE Jot'HXAl. has always been jn favor of such rules but (he attempt of (lie democrats to claim credit for reform when it is simply a scheme, makes pete rile tired. Th administration, like all pf its predecessors, lias been putting (ueoiber of its party into oltiee us fast a it could ever since Cleveland was in augurated, which under the precedent of kit the years gone by waa perfectly Er, and the result is that about place is now tilled by a democrat, dministration recognizes that the people demand a change in the policy of be government and that the party in power will step down and out on the 4h of March, 1897, and in hope of keeping a many of It adherents at the public crib as poswUe an extension of the civil fervice rulea U proclaimed and credit fur Ceforai is claimed. Civil service is a (wnutiful thing, but its beauty is mdlv ptarred when an attempt is nmnV to dse ft fo oer up political liiricH. Constitutional Amci dineut.

The Fasliinnablft Type of Mirl. Every style of girj is said in society to have her day; and just at present the type of feminine looks in greatest demand and admiration is she of the very sallow nay, of a distinctly yellow, complexion whose countenance shown no animation whatever, but who can boast of a pair of large, gloomy, black eyes. Can you trace the likeness? These unfortunate eirls have come to the fore since Eleanor fuse has won such popularity here. Well, 111 sallow, dark-eyed girls are enjoying their day hugely, and do their hair in soft, languid-looking folds about their faces, and drop an occasional Italian, instead of French, word into their conversation. In fact, lJuse has made the soft language of Italy wonder fully popular since she has been In this country, just as she has brought into favor the custom of wearing a large turquois ring on the first linger of the left hand.
