Rome four lias been expressed by
friendi. of J. M. Snyder, poat mail
er of the Vlrdurette post office and
M. H. Smith, post master at Divide,
that these two gentlemen will loos*
t heir prevent respective federal po
sitions Their fears are not witboat
foundation. Grover hates a pop.
. ■ —
We shook the hand of our old i
friend M 8 Taffee, master of the
Litchfield post office while in that
village last Monday. M. 8. wore
the Irce silver button daring the re
cent campaign aud consequently,
us he expressed it to us, t‘is expect
ing to hem something drop,” and
is anxiously waiting to find out
whc'her«r not that something will
be Mike tumbling from his present
federal position. It is pretty gen
erally believed, however, that Mike
wili be a participant in the new pop
ular game of “Grover put’em in, and i
Grover pul ’em out.” <
The Oakes Swiss Beil Ringers and ^
Comic Specialty Co gave two exel
lent performances at Deremear's ope
ra bouse yesterday afternoon and
evening. The performance was a
success from beginning to and. One
minatc audience would tie filled with
rapture by their harmonious and mar- '
velous musia and the next convulsed
with laughter by their nonsensical
mimicry and mirth. It is an excep- 1
tional company and they will find it '
profitable to return again.-Chieftain
Pueblo, Col.—They will be at the f
Opera house in Loup City touigbt.
The indications are that the South i
Atlantic and Gulf States Harbor <
Improvement Convention to meet in I
Tampa on Jan 29 1897 will be one of I
the most important occurrences in i
the South for many years. The sail I
is attracting much interest. It is <
believed that all of the Southern and i
most of the Eastern Northern and I
Western States will be represented <
by prominent public and business i
men. An invitation has been exten- I
ded to President-elect McKinley and 1
it is hIbo hoped that President Cle- i
veland with members of his cabinet l
may be induced to attend the con- i
vent ion._
The Swiss Bell Ringers will be in
Loup City and give ibeir entertain
ment in the opera house tonight, it
is a good company and will doubt
less draw a large crowd. Rut while
you are contemplating going to this
entertainment don't forget to patro
nize limue talent. The Epworth
League of this city had made every
arrangement to give their entertain
ment to niglit hut have postponed
their program until tomorrow (Sa
turday) night because the date first
made eoullicted with that made by
the hell ringers. They have taken a
great ileal of paius to make it a suc

enough lU'inev to patronise the hell

Kriirn The Grand Inland Dainocrat.
A Demiii’iHt man mu ordered this
week lo go out to the, sugar factory,
and resume Ins inquiry regarding
that great industry. This time he
was to see how the beet raisers Wert
feeling after the season’s work now
elosing. The weather for the past
week or two has not been ideal
weather for outdoor interviewing,
hut the least said about that the
better. The reporter went, saw, in
terviewed and got back without
freezing any part of his anatomy or
itlierwise hurting himself.
The variety of oponions regarding
icct sugar raising, its profitableness,
Me., is almost wonderful. One man
will be ai. enthusiast and probably
he next one you meat will declare
hut lie dos’nt see much in it. and
lothiog if only ft a ton is paid for
he roots. There are ail shades of
(pinion from one extreme to the
ithcr. One point upon which almost
dl agreed is in regard to silos.
Phe factory should provide shed
oom enough to take all the beets
is they are taken from the ground
n the fail, as the putting tho roots,
n silos takes as much work as would
ie neeueu 10 nasi insrn w me iaei
>ry. Another point spoken of is the
cry disagreeable job of digging
rests out of the silos and basting .
hem iu sueh bad weather. This is
.bout the only point upon which sll
vith whom the reporter talked
ecmed to agree. Many of the men
alked with were hauling for large
[rowers. Those who have engaged
xtensively in the business were not
mong those interviewed by the re
lorter, but the haulers told many
liffercnt tales of success and failure.
)ue intelligent American ~ farmer
aid that tie thought the industry
hum a grand thing for the state and
loped the time would come soon
phen many factories would be in
iperation. He knew of several poor
amities who were enabled to make a
iving from working in the fields
ind do hauling who would otherwise
iave needed assistance from the
:ounty. He and his sons had plant
id a small crop hut they had not
urned out well, still they had no
lomplaint to make as they had not
iiiltivatcd the crop as it should have
icen. This gentleman thought that
he incoming legislature would not
nterfere with the present bounty
aw. He thought it would be a wise
hing to continue the bounty for a
ew years at least, and also said it
vas his opinion that those who were
icquainted with the beet sugar in
lustry would not feel kindly toward
my party tiiat would remove tike
present bounty, which goss largely
.o the growers ot the roots.
The i|ueetion “Wilt heet raising
><• more profitable at |l a ton than
uiaing other crop*.” wus asked of
Midi, 'df we get $4 a ton it will he
i’iIiication whether we can make us
much as with corn an hogs, when
you eouaider the niuny things we
have to contend with in raiaiug beet*.
A failure erery few years would
knnek all the profit* out of thing*,"
•aye another. “1 iuteod to put in

poor man to run to put in very many

not made anything;others have been
getting ahead every year. Its lots
of work and the work must be done
just at the right time or the crop is
no good. The company ought to
have more shed room so that the
crop could be brought in as soon as
it comes out of the ground, instead
of making the growers wait until
they send for the beets. Maybe a
little competition would fix this,”
was the partial reply to the repor
ter's questions. “O, yes, I'm going
to raise beets next year. I can make
good money at a ton, bit 15
would be that much better,” cheerily
remarked one of the fanners. My
crop was all right and I'm well sat
isfied with this year's work,” suid a
German farmer who harvested a -00
acre crop which] averaged twelve
tons to the acre.
Kvery on evinced a lively interest
in the bounty case no triul, and the
question of 14 beets against is a
burning one with the beet raisers.
None tilamud the company, however,
for making the proviso In the con
tracts to pay 11 a ton means the
slate bounty is not paid.
‘"Whether these few opinions give
a fair idea of bow the farmers feel is
diflcult to say. A few points stand
out prominently. One is that all
arc not as successful as they would
ike to be. Another is that all have
,r.„„o,ro,l ii .. nrt. of ruisinu the
srop. The silo system undoubtebly
s causing some disatisfadlion.
There is no disposition shown to
juestion too honesty of the com- ;
,ariy’s officers and employees such
i thing was riot even hinted at.
rin- more intelligent farmers arecon
Jdent that the industry will make

inion.
To sum np in a few words. Meets
it $r> a ton insure all against loss
who have labored intelligently and
ndustriously, and a large profit to

called at this office, Tuesday, who was
on his way from Colorado to the home
of friends In Oarfletd county, lie was
traveling in a eoycred wagon with four
children and bis wife and was entirely
destitute. They were on the road du
ring the storm of last week and no doubt
suffered greatly. Traveling in a cove

without, a cent of money and tbo ther

was trying to find employment In Ka
