The Northwestern1 PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY AT THE COUNTY SKAT OBO. K. BBS.CHOTKK, Bdltor and Publisher TERMS:—II 00 PER TEAR. IF PAID IN ADVANCE Entered at the Loup Citv PoatofBce for trims mission through the malls as second class matter. Again tin? editor of Northwestern has called attention to the supreme cour in the case ol Hall county vs. ex Treasurer Thompson And again he says the case is practically the same as the Peoples State bank case of this oounty. The facts ate just as we h •<! expected. The case sighted bv th< Northwestern was brought in 1890 and the depository la w now appearing in tb* statute bunks of Nebraska was amend ed In 1897 und tbe Sherman county money was placid in the People’s State Bank under the present depository law . —Times-In dependent. Mow Mr. Brown will jou tell us how it is possible to deposit money in a bunk in itie year 1895 uuder » law that was enacted in 1897. And jet after jour attack upon Mr Pearson who gave up all be had, to re imburse the county, jou offer such rot in defeuse of your own popu list officer, who did not sacrifice a $ to make good his shortage. Read. The above articie from the Times was published io answer to what we said about the People’s State Bank ease and the loss of $5,00^ of Sher man county’s money there 'i. The Times sajs that the case sight ed by us was brought in 1890 which, was true, and the “depository law now appearing on the statute books of Nebraska was amended in 1897,’ which is also true, “and the Sher man countj- money was placed in the People's State bank under the present depository law. ’ This is not true, but absolutley false, and if the Times man had taken a little time and pains he would find that infor mation was filed against Albert T. Nichols and John H. Wilson on April. 2nd, 1895, for receiving money after the bank was Known to be insolvent. He would have learn ed, ir be has forgotten, that it wn» at that time that Sherman county lost its money, in the People's State Bank, and that, then was the time for our reformers? who have betn loDg on “windy pretentions”, and short on fulfilling their promises, to have made themselves a lasting rec cord by going after tht County Treas urer and his bondsmen, and have collected the amount then due the county, as did the authorities of Hall county. They collected something like #13,000.00 from their defaulting treasurer, and his bondsmen, which action the Times man says was be gun in 1890. That beiDg true why was it that the autborites of this county did not begin an action iD 1896, or even before that time, as Sherman county’s money was squandered in 1895. And the same law was on the statute bocks in 1895 as in 1896. 1 be thing for the big Injun in the Times office to do is to quit try ing to mislead its readers, in this matter, and tell them the truth as it is, and as the records show them tw be. And if he realy was in earnest about his reform, when this money was lost, would have placed the following at the head of every editorial he put in his paper, “Mike, put it back”, and would hare kept it there, until com plied with. The 1897 law is uoexcu9e for you whatever, as you had nearly two years to have commenced the action for recovery, before the 1897 law was passed.

March 17, IMS Editor Hexsi hotkh Dear Sir:— Permit me to axpreHs to you ray gratitude for your kindness In compliment ing my work and for jour praise of me as a dentist. I agree with you that it pays to ail vertiae for I have had more ihan I could do for the past few week*, and have worked as late as one o'clock at night to do untlnised work for my patients, so they would not hi disappointed when they called for it. and as soon as 1 have time am! my practice Is no’ so rushing 1 will have you do some advertising forme. Thanking you again 1 have the hon or to be. Yours Truly, L. VV. Marcy. We aro pleased to note the appreciative spirit in which Mr Marcy recic ves the com plimctitary notice of his work, lie says. "I agree with you that it pays to advertise " but fails to state whether be means free locals or pay ads. We have only one wav of detenu tiling this and conclude that it must tie the former as the above letter when relieved was not accompanied by 'any of the needful However this free discussion i» of great bene lit if it is all at our expense. It gives the people to understand that we have one of the liesi dentists in the state and that they need not go farther than Loup City to Arid him. Give the Honorable Professor Dr. W. L. Marcy, best dentist in the Loup country, your utten tlon if in need of dental work _- II — Editor HknscHOTBR: We were somewhat s irpr Ised at your sour rllous assau t un the liivenna Creamery Co. in your issue of the llth. ami we ask thm you will allow us to correct seme misstate meats contained In that article. You say that we use a liberal amount of printers ink w tiich we aever pay for. Now you eertemiy can not mean this statement to be taken seriously, tor it is the farthercst possible from our principles and rule of conduct. And now in regard to the article you spoke of the writer himself brought that into your office about two months ago, with the request that you insert it in your local columns, no request was made for any thing oomplimentery, and after you looked through the copy we asked if you made any charge for inserting such articles aud you said you would put it in as a sort of compllmentery and make no charge for it. and right at this point is where things must have got balled up for I remember of leaving the Nohthwksi khn office in somewhat of n confused state of mind, and pondering on the cheapness and vanity of this worlds pomp and glory, and I was in no way relieved of my embarrassment by the re. collection that just the previous week I had paid the Ord Quiz and the Ord Journal each lire cents a lino to publish a similar article In their local columns, hut since then the convic tion has been strengthening In my niiad that ‘ not all men are equally merslnary” and now liro. Btnxehoter 1 hope you do nut intend to reprove the foundation of my faith again. Kespaetfully. C. A. CLARK Mr. Clatk's statement of the case forcibly reminds us of the way in which the pops garbeled the statements of Hob Ingersoll when they quoted him as saying that "be believed in the issue of the silver dollar," He did say so, but added “that he wanted that silver do.lar to be worth a dollar and to be in a position to say X know that my re deemer llveth." Now Mr. Clark did bring that notice to this office and request us to publish it aud did ask us if there was any charges on such notices, but in his epistle studiously avoided adding what ho further said befoie we answered the question that “the Iiavenna News and other papers did such tvork as a matter of news." and said to, that "if we would insert the weekly market report of butter, butter fat and eggs, as a matter of news he would have them brought in weekly. Now didn t you Mr. Clark? In answer to his question and suggestion we said that the article which he wanted pub lished was more in the nature ef an advertis ment for the company but that we would pub lish it this time, ac a compllmentery. And even after this he did not manifest any deapo sitien to pay for it, and left the office as hur riedly as he came. He say* he went away “In a confused state of mind." Well, we think from the tone of his letter he is still in the same condition. We will give him credit for one thing how ever. And that is that he says that he did put up to the Ord Quiz and Journal AN OPEN LETTER. To the Real Estate Dealers of Loup City. My Dear Dealers:—We have bucn thinking of late how nice it would be for you ail. each and every one of you, to have your names come before the people in print ia the local newspapers with printers ink, stamped upon pure white print paper, that is in a bus iness way Of course such a things would be a ourosity in this town for it has been a num ber of years since such a thing lias happened, but we feel sutistltd that the people would get used to It in a little while and we know that the printer would appreciate it. Now if you will carefully read our columns you will see thut the manufacturers of the famous pills. DeWltt's Little Early Risers, sold by Odendahl Bros., is constantly before the People, and it is safe to say thut this llrm is coining money by the nail keg full. If they can thus successfully put these little pills upon the market it would stand to reason thut you could advertise your thousands of acres of land and reap a harvest, after paying the printer, that would net you a rain barrel full. Did you ever stop to think, my dear dealers, what a lonesotre, dreary, unbuslncss like, one horse town this would be without the local newspaper? Did you ever stop to think that your bus iness would not amount to a hill of beans if the local newspapers did not report weekly, the enterprise Improvements, and Dusiness of our town and county? Did you ever stop to think that tint calandt r advertising which you are putting out does net reach the people in the east who are wanting homes, but are only hung up around town and in the homes of our local people as a sort of a cromo, and only looked at on Sundays or legal holidays, and Is less useful than a Jaynes ulmanio? Did you ever stop to think that the money paid out for those enmos would better be spent wilh the home printer. That it would give him heart, means and courage to sing songs ol praise of our country, its enterprise and developments': Did you ever stop to think thut it might be a good thing when you make a sale of a piece of land to lneldeutly write a little notice about it and at the same time mention the fact hat you have other good lam's for sale uni speak of the posh and enterprise of the busi ness in your Hue. and then hand it to the editor, accompanied with $3.00, more or less ms the circumstances will allow. Of course you will not he expected to all rush in at once.’ Don't expect the printer to do all this for noth i ig. can't do it. His circumstances v.,.n’i permit of It.

WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, SAYS: Baltimore, Md., March jo, igot. Gentlemen : — Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give yon a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of "this city, who told me that only an operation could help me. and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the lv ring in the affected ear would be lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treaW ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, aaa to-day. after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank yon heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours, !•'. A. WURMAN, 730 S. Broadway, Baltimore, Md. Our treatment does not interfere with your usual occupation.
