Last Sunday a big wolf hunt was en
gaged in by over thirty men and women
and several children. The hunt took
place between Bob Neeces' and A. Mc
Ginley's. The parties were provided
with eight or ten hounds and a plenty of
guns and amunition but, nary-a-wolf did
they get although three or four were
seen. The party took their dinner at
Mr. Neeces,' and Mr. McKinley informed
the rejiorter for The Journal that an
other wolf hunt would come off next
Sunday and that the hunters would take
their dinner at his place. Tiiera is some
talk of the boys going down to take a
hand in the hunt from here, whether
they do or not remains to be seen.
The huntirg of wolves and a general
war of extermination of all their species
is a grand good thing and every stock
raiser in Sioux county ought to take a
hand in getting rid of tbe pest. But we
deplore the fact that no other day than
the Sabbath can be found to do that kind
of work, or to have that of pleasure,
which most of the boys consider it to be.
While we do not profess to be any better
than the general class of people, we do
believe that a better example should be
set before the rising generation. What
The Journal has to say is not ment for
any particular person or persons, nor to
any particular neighborhood and none,
we hope will take any ofenc about
what Tu Jockxax. has to say.
AN ASS.WI.T CAE.

AiMlilst nr Hu.boud.
C. R. Wadsworth figured prominently
in two cases brought in Judge Hoge's
court WtJnesday. The first one on a
complaint sworn to by A. L. Lewis,
wherein he was charged with carrying
concealed weapons. For lack of evi
dence as to consealment of the weapon
he was discharged. It i understood Mr.
Lewis wil! file a complaint against him
charging him with assault with a deadly
weapon. Mr. Lewis claimed that Wads-
worth went to his place and in a quarrel
over a business matter drew a gun on
him.
The second case was tried in the after
noon. C. Ii. Wadsworth's wife, Gertie
Wadsworth, had him arrested on the
charge of assault with intent to do great
injury and the case began about 3 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. Wadsworth
testilied that her husband had beeu drink
ing, and came home to supper in an ugly
mood. Trouble ensued and after a
quarrel he struck her, called her names
and otherwise abused her. He struck
her, she claimed, three times with his
fist, and exhibited marks, in the court
room, where he had scratched her on her
arm. She also said he threatened to
"smash her through the floor" with a
fiat-iron. Her father came in about that
time with a drawn hammer and stopped
the fight.
In his testimony Mr. Wadsworth dent
ed the assault on his wife and claimed
she assaulted him with the flat-iron
Nearly every important allegation of
fact made by her as to assault was deni
ed.
Judge Hoge found him guilty and
bound him over to the district court to
answer the charge, imposing on him a
peace bond of $1iH). Kfiimey Daily Hub,

A billion yearning lives.
Man is a petty egotist
To think he only strives
To think he onlv struggles up
To God through toil and pain;
He is but one drop in a cop
Filled from the mighty main.

That love, repine, aspire.

Feels infinite desire.

When hid beneath the sod.

With consciousness of God.

What They (Said.
Thomas Jefferson said that patriot
ism could be measured by the number
of free homes there were in the country
What did he know obout politics any
way.
Daniel Welster, who served this coun
try from 1817 to 1850, in various ways
said, "lilierty can not long exist where
the tendency of legislation is to concen
trate the wealth of the nation into the
hands of the few". Webster was a law
yer, then how could he be able to see
this fact? James Otis (1776), declared
that England had as well try to dam the
Nile with bullrushes as try to quench
the spirit of indipendence in America
Was he one of those fellows who ask
ed King George the third if he might
sigo the Declaration of Independence, or
whether he might change the denomina
tions of our currency or regulate its val
ue"? Not he. I think, Lyman Beecher,
viewing with prophetic eye, the great
and growing west said, "We must edu
cate, ire munt educate or perish by our
own prosperity." He was one of those
fellows who would not keep still He
k I nd o' agitated the country.
Thomas II. Benton, the illustrous sen
ator from Missouri, (1820 to 1 W0), said
that if we would educate the masses
the country would be safe, Now who
wants to be safe? Then let him ee-de-
cate. Henry Villard received 180,000,
as salary while president of the N. P.,
railroad while those who built Um road
bed lived in dug-outs and worked for 90o
a day while it was cold enough to freeze
the nozzle off a brass whistle. "Oh
how plea:tent it is for brethern to dwell
together in unity". How much it takes
to feed and clothe some, and how little
it takes for others. Our patriotic ones
told us tbe public domain should be
kept as free homes for the people. The
N. P. railroad says you can have our
share of it when you pay us $7.50 to
915.00 an acre for it "and com quickly
for it is going to rise"', Hoke Smith
told ue "twelve years more and all tbe
available public domain win tw taaen.
What theo? I repeat it, what then?
