Official Taper Sherman County The Treasury statement from Washingbon D. C. for the past month shows a very healthy condition ol Government finance, and proves that (the Dir.gley tariff will do all that has been ever claimed for it. At the present time there is $ 170,000,000 in the gold reserve, and the time seems to be about ripe for the cala mity howlers to again point to the dangers of a large surplus as they did eight years ago, and by which we have not been troubled since the success of the democrats in 1802. The treasury report for the month past shows as follows. Receipts from customs $14,430,715 a gain of $3, I ivpA n A/i .. tl,/. oamn noflfwl I >( ^ fcuvj vvv v » i ’ ■ ■ last year, and the increase of inter nal receipt* over last year is $564,000. The excess of expenditures over re ceipts for the first year of the present administration exelusivo of PaaifU K, It. payments, will be about $-'4 000,000 as compared with a deficit of #47,000,000 for the first year oi the last administration. From the present outlook it is believed tb.it the surplus for inarch will aggregalt about $5,000,000. Thus it is seer that the Republicans as ever make good their promise of better tiinei and an assurance of Dot issuin': bonds for the running expenseofthi Government. President McKinley seems to hi persuing the same wise course it dealing with Spain, that has be.:; the policy of our Government aim i the deeiaraiioii of independence, am one which even his political enemim can but applaud. It has always beer the sentiments of the United Statei to resort to war only when all othci OFF/' /.f n no.winfiil nntn in hull fnilmil and the honor of our country wa; trampled upon to such an extent tha forbearance bad ceased to bea virtue * The revolting of the colonies froa the gauliug yoke of the mother count \ ry, was resorted to only after th< tyranieal George the III. had heap ed indignities upon them that wer* unbearable to liberty loving people In I8i2. Great Britain again under took to make life not worth living u |l the people who bad once defeatet her. The news papers of Englant boasted that “for several years tha country bad been trying to kick tin United Stated into a war but oouh not” and like all insults this one hat to come to an end, and when it did f Great Britain was at the feet of Bro ther Johnathan. Agaiu we seem to bi brought face to fane with another m eoleut nation that has an idea thu * thrashing Unsle Sam will only be i * breakfast job. In this McKinley ha persued the same wive policy of show ing to the world that this grea nation will not engage in mortal com bat uidess there ia no other reaorl but to quote the President# uwi wonts to Gen.

Mr. Geo. Lee of the west side, and one of the most prosperous farmers in the county, made us a very pleasant cull Wednesday, and demonstrated to tis that Nebr. is the only one of its kind in existance. Mr. Lee sni<l that “he had just turned off a tew of the surplus hogs he raised the past year, and had received the snug sum of $376.00 for them, he also said that two years ago be bought a heifer calf tor twelve dollais and that today that calf and iqcreas was worth $05 besides the eow had paid for her keep ing otherwise, also that he had raised two ear loads of Wheaton his farm last season, which is worth $700.00 and that he defies any country to beat it” Mr. Lee has been a calamity howler ever since the devil and the democratic party struck us but Me Kmley prosperity lias been unoven at him in such large chunks that lie wore a 7x1* smile with as much grace as if he had cant the whole cloctrol vote for McKinley. He is beginning to see as many more are, that pros perity and republican rule always get acre about the same time. Mrs. Lee has gone east on an extended visit among friends. Call again Bro.
