All parlies desiring to make final proof can have their pawra made out at THE JotrsaL office, freo of charge, anil promptly transmitted to the land office to that do time will lie lost. Now is the time to suWrihe. Call at The Jot RNAt. olfie and ha e Tour final proof pa (tern made out. It will cost you nothing. Don't miss the republican rally at the court house on Friday afternoon, Sept. 25th. I. RichMein received a handsome new orpin a few day ago. Such thing udd much to the pleasure of the home. Don't forget the Sunday school ex ercises and basket dinner in the strove in AVarbonnel, on Sunday, K.-ptemher 20th. A pleasant time is promised. The report of the state fair is that it was tint a success, financially, the re ceipts falling short several thousands of dollars of heini: -noui;h to meet the ex penses. The attractions were provi led hut the people did not go to see tlicui. Sixteen carloads of t attle were ship ped from this foiiit on Tuesday. They vere made tip by Messrs. Johnson, Hol linjjKworth, Tinner, Nutlo, Hoyt, Her man and others. S jine were shipped by the owners while others were delivered to buyers. The hall team from Cottonwood pre ciuct will be here to play against the Jlarri.son players to-morrow (Friday) luorninj,'. The (,-atne is set for the fore lioon ns the afternoon w ill bo occupied ith the rices. A lot of fun is looked forward to. County Treasurer liiehle will move a part of his family to town in n few tiays. tltt.t the children may go to school, llo will occupy the house recently va ated by II. A. Priddy, the latter having moved to his homestead in Wurbounet precinct. The invitation to the Lusk people to play ball here during the fair could tint lie accepted as they have club there. The best of feeling is expressed toward the Harrison folks and there is no reason fr any nj-vre kicking matches between the towns over base bull. M. C. I loan was in from Hat '"reek piccinct on Friday and in speaking of t lie political situation said that some were trying to make out that every body is for Bryan in that part of the. county, but such was not the fact, and the elec tion return would prove that he knew what he was talking alxiot. rjupintendent O'Brien, of the state lisli liatchsnes, writes that a supply of lass, croppies and carp, and a limited number of perch and catfish will be ready for distribution this full. Parties dsiring to get an allotment of anv of tlie above varieties can get blank appli cations by addressing the surintendent t South Bend, Neb. The car will likely isit Harrison sometime in Octolier. If peoplo think that public olflce is a pleasant thing they would lis apt to change thair notion could they hear the conversations in the treasurer's ofllce. Vbeo men conic in response to the no tice sentouland tell the treasurer that if they are compelled to pav their taxes i t take tlie food and clothes from the family it puts an official in a most un pleasant position. As a rule the poor men aro assessed more in proportion to what they possess than are those who tire Utter fixed, and the former class jsry up better. It is those who can pay and will not that the officers can get ufter in good shupe. Clerk of the District Court Blewetfc no Saturday received the transcript in a ease entitled the State of Nebraska vs. Hiroro Richardson, and it came from Moot roue precinct. Richardson was ur rested on complaint or Orhurd ttindm hurging hirn with shooting and wound ing two cows, of the value of seventy live dollars, llo was taken before M. J. Oayliait, justice of the peece, and en tered u plea of guilty, and w.is held to appear at the next term of fthe district court. What the circumstances were which hid to the shooting of tlmanimals is not koown, but the prospects are that the rcu!t will h unpleasant for the de fendant. There lit law to protect peo pW od their properly f rom '.he t,K l isl.ngiaj to others and to go according t? law Is mutdi better than it is to kill or rrimU alack and then have to answer in ii , - . Two wrongs 'cannot litis I nest 5oll. A The J'X KX aI. has entered upon an other year a great many sulwcriptions are due. It costs nioBey to conduct a ueuspaper the same as it does any other business. Tliere are hundreds of dollars due on subscription and other accounts which if paid would enable us to meet our bills when due. Some owe only small amounts, but inanv small amounts make a large sum. If you are indebted to TltE JiH.71.naL and cannot pay all due pay a portion of it now und the rest as soon as you n. Uo not wait for further n nice. Respectfully, The Publisher. The County Fair. 1 To-diy the first fair ever held in Sioux county ojx-ns. The indications are that the weather will be pleasant and u good at tend, nice if, looked for. The track has leen llxed up and everything done that circumstances would allow to put all in readiness. Some products came in be fore we went to press and they indicate that the exhibition of farm and gjixleu produce w ill be fine. The prospect are that the display of others things will bo good, and all can be nicely displayed in the rooms on the second floor of the court house.

Mont gomery near Bodarc. last week. At the democratic congressional convention at ( hadron on Tuesday Judge Greene was made the nominee for congress. The prospects for good races during the fair are bright. Horses began to arrive yesterdiy and others will he here in time to enter. Lusk, Crawford und other towns outside tho county will be represented. Adam Morrow died at his home near Van Tassell, Wyo., at 11 o'clock yester day. He had beea ailing for some weeks but it was not thoimht to be se rious, but he became worse and the end came as above stated. Ho wan what is called nn old-timer here and was known commonly as "Ike Adams." He was possessed of many good traits of char acter and had ninny friends. He leaves a wife and several small children who have tho sympathy of all in their loss and bereavement. Dr. W. B, Ely, of Ainsworth, repub lican candidate for state senator for this district, was in Harrison yesterday get- ling acquainted with the people, He is a pleasant gentleman to meet and has every indication that be is well qualified for the place and h iving lived in the district for eight years lin knows the the condition of tho people of the north west part of the state and can apply his efforts to the securing of tin passage of laws that would l3 of lK!neflt to this part of the state. The people of his home town and county swak in the highest terms of him ns a citizen, so that no man need to hesitate to give him hearty support, for if elected he will render good service to his constituents. Frank Zerbst, the lad In jail on the charge of horse-stealing, has expressed a readiness to plead guilty and County Attorney Guthrie wrote to Judge West over askinn hi in to come up and hold a special term of court and dispose of the case. The Judge answered that he would come up in the near future and attend to it. Ho was expected yester day but he did not come. It is a ques tion whether lie will have to go to the penitentiary or can be sent? to the reform school. The latter would certainly be the best for the hoy as he would have a chance to get a little schooling and would not be thrown into quite so hard ened a claim. If he poes to the latter place tie may be reformed, but if he is aeiit to tlie penitentiary ho is likely to Hon. A. E. Cady,! Republican Candidate for Congress, j Hon. J. H.

The populist legislative conventions the first of the week nominated Judge MutzofKeya Paha county for stale senator, and A. E. Sheldon for represen tative. W. R. Smith has lieen very low the past week, and although he seemed a little better at last reports it is only thought to be temporary as he is very weak and unable to take any nourish ment to sjieak of. Tho reports from tho election in Maine which occurred on Monday are that the republicans carried the state by nearly fifty thousand. The largest ma jority by which tho republicans ever carried the state election in a presiden tial year was a little less than twenty thousand. It is considered that when Maine give its usual republican majority at the state election, the r publican ticket is safe in the national election. From that it looks as if McKinley would sweep the entire country. The Toledo Weekly Blade and Cam paign of 1S9.
