The Northwestern PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY AT THE COUNTY SEAT. GEO. K. BENNCHOTKK, Editor and Publluhor TERMS:—il.00 PER TEAR. IT PAID IN ADVANCE Entered at the Loup City Postofflee for trans mission through the mails as seeond class matter. Tbe Democrats of Iidiana havea bandoned the Free Silver issue. Giv ing as a reason that nature had fur nished the country with sufficient gold to do the business of the count ry on. It is a good thing that they should have nature to fall back on Almost every paper and every one are denouncing the governor for the Bartley pardon air, but what about the loDg list of fellows from all part ies that signed the petition for that pardon. There is more than a hun dred politicians on that list who have shown by their action that they would have done exactly the same thing had they the authority that is vested in the governor. While we are trouncing Ezra lets wallop the whole outfit. The Hepburn Nicaraguan canal bill passed the house last Thursday after noon by practically a unanimous vote. Only two members out of 310 voted against it. Messrs. Fletcher (Republican, Minnesota), and Lassiter ( Democrat, Virginia ), were the two voting in the negative. Tbe opposition to committing the government to the Nicaraguan route attempted to secure amendments to lodge with the president the discre tionery power to purchase and com plete the Panama canal, if it could be purchased for #40,000,000. Col. Bixby pays a compliment to the newspapers that will propahlv is act with him as forcibly as did his re productions by the Omaha lady in the recent joint discussion on the liquor question Bixby said that ‘■Editors who had’nt written anorig inal opinion on any question for a year and a half mustered up energy enough last week to write something mean about Joe Bartley.” In this Bix must have included his own dear Stat-i Journal. That paper his’nt been known to write any thirg but white wash editorials for several years past, but uses it pall, the Evening News with scare crow head lines to do its bidding. The Jour nal has’nt given a decided opinion either way in the Bartley matter but it has pounded the governor from California to Chicago, by producing extracts from the brainy country editor. Bixby had better go in oul of the night air. POINTERS ABOUT JOll WORK 1. You should come to the Northwestern office for jour job W’ork. 2 When you come to town and want a job done light away, quick you should first come straight to our office and leave your order. Do this ' before you do any thing else, then we can be doing the work while you are transacting your other business. If the job is not too large we can most likely have it ready for you when you start home. 3. This office has one of the finest job outfits for all classes of work, north of the Platte river and we have experienced hands who know just bow to do a job that will please. 4. Don’t think because wo say we can get you out a set of 100 bills for 1.00 or 1 50 according to size, that we can print you a set of 25 for one fourth the price. It costs just as mu :h money and takes just as much time to set up a form for one bill as it does for a hundred or more from that same form, so you see we charge you for the one bill and give you the other ninety nine. 5 Of course you know that hand hills arc printed on very cheap paper and the cost is practically all in the work of getting the form ready for the press. It is not so with sta tionery, cards, programme’s, boc k printing, etc*. In such items the cost of the worK must be added to th*j tin cost of material. <> By the way, we keep the ver\ best grades of all kinds of stati<>rer\ cards, flats, book paper, program in~’. wedding curds, etc. etc. constantly on band ami ran (it you out with as little money as any printing estab lishment this side of tlie* great dry l’lalte. 7. All orders for job work should be handed in as soon us possible. If you give tUc printer plenty of time lie will do vou abetter job ami you will therefore get better service for the same money. The new county officers took poss ession of thier several offices yester day, and things are tome wliat dif ferent about the court house at Kear ney than they were For several years past when a republican had occasion to visit the court house on business lie transacted that busi ness and then hiked himself for some more congenial locality, aud as he hiked by the doors of the various officers he would be looked upon with suspicion by otiici Is who would involuntarily turn to see if the vault doors were securely closed Now when a republican walks down the corridors of that same court house be will be met at every door with the blandest of smiles, and given the glad hand and an invita tion to come in and put his feet upou the ollicial table and see the wheels of the county government go round. It’s a long lane, it has been said, that lias no turn. — Shelten Clipper. ANOTHER FINK VOLUME. Standard books are ever welcome when they come to us in forms and bindings representing ell 'he ern bcdlisbments of the art of bookmak mg. Such a book is “War In South Africa” published by The Dominion Company, Chicago, a copy of which has just come to our desk. The contents of which are well ar ranged, the illustrations aie tine, the print is clear and reat and the bind ing is superl). The Dominion Com pany is forging ahead as the leading western publishing house making a specialty of line subscription books. MaviDg salespeople in nearly every nook of the country, the company enjoys a large and growing trade. As this company has a known repu tation for liberality towards its agents and fair treatment of them; an agency iu this community for the above book, or tome other published by this company, would be a source of considerable profit to the one fortunate enough to secure it. Inter ested leaders should write the com piny for full particulars Hans Rlcliter'* Criticism. On one occasion Hans Richter was present at a concert given by a brother composer, at which the latter per formed a long and not particularly in teresting work of his own. When the composition came to an end Richter expressed his criticism in a very few words. "Well,” he said, "I, too, haf written compositions to make a pile so high,” raising his hand three feet from the ground: “hut I haf burned them.” KXCBBsION TO FLORIDA.
