*houl<l Im* CmmI at Horn*.
Old Im a town tliHt is about the
size of Loup City, or perhaps » ,
tritie larger. She lias three news
paper* in it. Their pages are
covered with live display adds
| representing every business lirtu in
I the city.
.*1. Paul is about the size of Ord.
She has also three newspapers and
the business of the town is well rep
resented in all of them.
The little town of Litchfield ad
vertise* its business through the
Monitor which comes to onr desk.
The lust weeks Issue wus alive with
fine Urge display adds.
In last weeks Arcadia Champion
published in a town, not a county
seat, and only half the. size of Loup
City, we counted in display adds,
representing all the leading busi
ness of the town and asking people <
to come to Arcadia for bargains.
Burwell is u town about half the
size of Loup City but nearly every
class oi business is welJ represented.
She has two newspapers and both
has its pages covered with fine large
display ados.
Now we want to ask, what do you
find in the Loup City papers by way
of advertising. One bank add and
s few professional cards. So fur as
advertising in either paper is con
cerned Louo G'itv is s town of no
importance whatever. Our rncr
chants have abandoned the use
of printer* ink and seek to draw
the attention of the. people by
hoisting flags whenever there is
a rally or some other similar oc
casion. How rodiculouH it looks for
a republican ®r democrat to hoist his
flag at a pop rally, or viea verca, in
order to catch the trade. Of eourse
it does not cost as much to hoist a
flag as it does to use printers ink,
bat when you consider that it is the
trade that they are after and they
get more criticism than trade from
the public by so doing, it is pretty
dear advertising after all.
Merchants, doctors, lawyers,
blacksmiths and cltizeus kow do you
like tbe comparison with Loup City
to that of othar towns in this mat
ter of representation. To prove
the truth of our statement we iuvitc
you all to step into our olllse
and look over our exchanges.
While in Ord last week we noticed
that there were an imraetice crowd
of people in town many of whom
were trading and getting black
smithing done, and we met some
_t... I:.1_ l _ / a i_
Oil” IHVM ucuii;a ituup V* KUHU
Ord. People who ui.sd to trade at
Loup City, hat who evidently have
been attracted to that place by the
liberal use of printer's ink.
To expect a newspaper to do a
town Justice and keep up ita cirettlt
tion without patronage in too much.
Only yesterday (Monday ) we lost a
good mtharriber who said that he
took the paper for the advertising
a» well us the news, that il was Just
as esuential and more so, speaking
from a business atauUpoioi, to take I
a paper for the adds ua well as the
news, that be might himiw where
the bargains were ami where in go
to huy tiie most for the leas* mousy
So you see that it is up hill business

lorded the privllogeof selecting 13
iclegatea lath# State convention in

was piaetieally unanimous for Jewitt
ind that the oounty seem* largely
n favor of Jack MacCall for Cover
sor, with many friends for Geo. D.
Meikeljobn. That Judge Aaron Wall
for Congress baa a large follow

ng Geo. D. Meikeljohu addressed
in audience of about 300 and he waa
followed by a few remark* from
JV H. (longer. In the opinion of
thia paper no bettsr selection for
State Treasurer eould be made than
S. II. Jewitt who is eminently fitted

Jod speed on his journej.
WHY THEY SMILE
Mr. Harrlty, of Pennsylvania has
adieu ted in an indinot wav how
tjh? Chicago convention "ill In'
i-pt eoliil and liarmonioiiH mid lm a
reliable cuckoo body. Having told
st newspaper unm that in In* opinion
.In'(' invention will adopt a sound
money plank and do it uiinnimntialy
iml tbat there would be no bolting,
tin was asked: ‘-How about tliosn
delegates elected from frei eotuage
-tale* who, under such leaders as
I'illman and iioisc and Bryan, are
pledged to bolt ie ease of a gold
iiendnrd plank is put in the plat
form.
“Delegatee pledged to bolt," be
replied, ‘'have no right to be admit
ted to the convent ion." Harrity is
undoubtedly right from the stand
point of any workable system of
political ethics. If you are not
going to be governed by a majority
gi a convention, jou ara a fraud
when yon go Into it, because the
fundamental principle of a conven
tion je that the majority rules and
most importanti|tialiflcalioo for
a sent, in a convention is the sup
posed intent of the claimant to
abide by tbs will of the same.
But there will be music in the
air. doubtless, if the euekoos get
control of the machinery of the
Chicago convention and refuse to
admit delegations known to have
threatened to bolt in case this, that
or the other thing wasn't dons to
thuirtuste.- State Journal.
Thera promise* to be a very lively
fight in the supreme couacil of the
American protective association
ever tba nation of the advisory
board ie declaring that the order is
hostile to MeKinley. The supreme
council meets in Washington this
week and is likely to give a vigor
ous overhauling to the advisory
board for its uneontidered action.
It is stated that the executive com
haittae of tbut board exceeded ita
authority and that by ao doing it
has nearly caused a disruption of
the order. Protests by the thou
sands have been coming in de
nouncing the action of Judge
Fteviue and his associate* and in
sisting that a majority of the Indi
vidual membera of the A. P. A. ,
will refuse to be bonnd by the reco
mendation of those few men
It is said that only seven uf the
thirteen members of tho executive
committee met and issued tba edict
and the majority of them were con
trolled by inlluences which to say
the least are open to suspicion and
criticism. It seems likely that the
supreme couneil will take off the
bun against MeKinley without
reeomending him or snv other can
didate. It looks as if the advisory
board hud put itself in front of the
buzz saw and is coming within an
ace of receiving injuries which will
be fatal to the further influence of
the order. State Journal.
